THE QUACK DOCTOR. "VT
flow II Experimented Cpna th Poeksta
of ma Igaorsat Crowd,
A short time ago a qnack experi
mented in Lambeth with considerable
success upon the pockota of att awe
stricken crowd." After a rol'nilnary
harangue and a terse little lecture on
the viscera, which the charlatan
sketched in with colored crayon upon a
black board on whioh the human skel
eton was outlined In white paint, the
fellow came to business. "I am eoinji
to demonstrate to you," said he, "by a
startling experiment upon one of you
bystanders, that my miraculous remedy
can cure all diseases of tho lungs and
chest. Now. whoever s got a bad
eouffh or cold on the chest let stand
forward." There was some little hesi
tation and a rood deal of gi!rlin2.
"Don't be afraid, my friends," said the
quack; "it's all free, gratis, for nothing.
Let any afuicted person come forward
and I'll show him the nature of his dis
rder, and give him a packet of my
ung healers for nothing." At last a
man with a violent cold and cough
came forward. The quack doctor pro
tended to sound his chest with a steth
oscope ot almost pantomimic propor
tions and infur. ued the staring crod
that the patient was in a galloping
consumption.
"My friend." said tho qnack to hi?
unfortuna'e victim, "so terrible is thit
ilioaso that you can actually see it,"
ilu handed a gl:tS4 tube to the patient
and then poured a pint of clear water
into a lar 'e tumbler. "Just you blovv
nto that water, my friend," ha cried.
The men obeyed and the water grew
uiscolored, turbid and at last as white
as if it had been mixed with milk. The
patient himself became as pale as ashes.
This unhappy man, my friends," said
the quack, as he held the las on
high, "if be hadn't hafl the gimd for
tune to come acrosi me to-ni!it
wouldn't have beeif long for this world.
I should have given him about a fort
night; that's alt. Now a packet of my
lung-healers will cure him. What vou
see in the glass of water are his vitiated
humors, -the priwlucts of corruption.
My magic lung-haalers destroy these
humors in the body or out of the body.

fullyr-there is no deception here." The
'inack dropped a pinch from one of a
tvtckct of powders into a glass, and

CAPTAIN LYNCH. "
Aa Ola Aeeoant or ta Originator af the
Lynch law.
Andrew Ellicott, who was L'Enfant's
subordinate in laying out Washington
City, -and who managed to supplant
him. afterward surveyed the line be
tween the United States and the SpanUh
colonics in Florida. While there he
met Captain Lynch, the originator of
lynch law, of whom he gives In his
mantucript journal the following ac
count: Csptain Lynch," wrote Mr. EUicott.
"was the author of the lynch laws
well known and so frequently carried
into elect o ne year ag i in same of
tho Stab's, in dethtnee of every prin
ciple of justice and jurisprudence. I
had the following detail of procedure
from his own lips: Tile lynch men as
sociated for the purpose of punishing
crime In a suium iry way, without the
technical and tedi-u forms of our
courts of justice. Dp n a report being
made by any member f the assoei-ition
of a irrime being c m nitted in the vi
cinity of their jurisdiction, the person
so roi.iplained of was iin ne I'lately pur
sued e.nd taken, if possible. If nppre
hendid. he was carried before soma
member of the association and exam
ined, if his answers were not satisfac
tory ke was whipped until they wore so.
TheOT extorted answers usually involved
otliett in the supposed crin.e, who, in
tnrn, were punUhed in like manner.
The) punishments were sometimes se
vere, in consequence of the answers
extorted under the induenos of the
smarting whip to interrogatories put by
members of the association.
Mr. Lynch Informed me that he ha I
never in any case given a vote for the
punifhment of death. Some, however,
he acknowledged, had been hanged,
but not in the oniumim way. A horeo
becaitie their executioner. The manner
was thus: The person to be hange l
was placed on a horse, with I1I9 lian.U
tied behind him. A rope was tied abo.it
his n.k. and its other end, not too
long, was fastened to the limb of a tree
over his head. In this situation the
person was left. When the horse, i 1
pursuit of food or for any other causa,
moved, the criminal was left suspended
by his neck. Tills nas called aid.nj;
the civil authority. It seems almost.
incredible," continues Mr. EUicott,
"that such proceedings should be hail,
governed by known laws. It may.
nevertheless, be relied on. shiuld not
have asserted it as a fact had it not
been related to me bv Mr. Lynch him
self and by his neighbors." Ben: Fer-
