Why do I livei when not ray

Power OF MIND OVER BoDY.-The mys-
terious influence exercise by the mind over the
body, is well illustrated in the following case
contained in DR.. Waren's excellent treatise
on the "Prcservation of Health":-
"Sometime since, female presented her.
self to me, with tutor. or swelling Of the
submaxillary gland of the neck. 1t was about
the size of an cgc, had lasted two years, and
was so very hard that considered any effort
to dissipatc it by an operation. To this, the
patient could not bring her mind; therefore,
to satisfy her wish, soipc applications Of con-
siderable activity were directed to be made 10
the part, and these she pursued number of
weeks without any change. After this she
called en- me, and with some hesitation, beg
gcd TO know whether an application recon-
mcnded tobcr would, in my opinion, be safe.
This consisted in applying the hand Of a dead
man three times to the diseased part. Ono
of her ncighbos now lay dead, and she had
an opportunity Of trying the experiment, il
not thought dangerous. At first was dis
posed to divert her from it, but rccolccting
the power of the imagination, gravely assured
her that she might make the trial, without
apprehension Of serious consequence. A while
after she presented herself once more, and
with smilin5 countcnance, informed me she
had used this remedy, and no other; and on
examining for the tumor, it had disappeared"

Speech Of the Czar.

We copy from the Constitutional the fol
lowing. extract from letter, dated Moscow,
April IL:
The Emperor has arrived quite unexpected
ly at our city, accompanied by the Grand
Dukes Constantine Michael, and Nicholas,
and a numerous staff. Their reception was
most enthusiastic This morning the En-
peror gave audience to Count Zakrewsk, the
military governor, who was accompanied by
deputations from the mobiles, and from the
civil and military authorities. When all
these persons had formed circle round him,
the Emp ror addressed him as follows:
"Gentlemcn-The war is over, for ratifi

signed at Paris, before lett ST. Petersburg
Russia was able to defend herself for many

what forces were brought against her, she
WAS invulnerable on her own territory. But

sails compatible with the national honor
War is an abnormal state, and the greatest
successes attained by it scarcely compensate
for the evils it occasions. 1t had caused an
interruption of the commercial relations of the

itself against the policy of late years. My

am sure that allowances will be made for the
difficult position in which was placed, and
that shortly every devoted friend Of Russia
will render justice to my views and intentions
for the welfare of the country.
Suppose the lase Of arms should have re-
maincd constantly with us, as it has been in
Asia, the empire would have exhausted its
resources in keeping up large armies on diff

JErrGRsoN Cry, Feb. 81, 1886.

JEFFERSON Cry, Feb. 81, 1856.
Serl'ng Price, Governor of Missouri:
DEAR Srn-I have considered your note
Of the 10th instant, and respectfully submit
The following answers to the intcrrogatores
il contains.
/. The act 10 secure the completion Of
certain railroads in this State, WILL in my
opinion, take effect at the end of ninety
days after lis passage. / am satisfied, upon
examination, that it is not an act Of n public,
permanent and general nature, within the
meaning OF the late act concerning the re-
vlsed statutes, which embraces only the re-
vised statutes, and such as are TO be pub.
lished with them.
"a. The act requires the bonds for the
million OF dollars transferred by the 9th
section TO be issued upon the application of
the company, with proof as required by the
act of investment in the actual construction
OF the road, west of Jefferson City. Their
issue depends upon the application and proof
OF investment, and not upon the issuing of
the two millions granted by the 4th section.
81. The company is entitled to twice the
amount expended in the actual construction
of the road, west of Jefferson CITY. The
transfer is upon the same conditions as pro-
vided IN section -four of the act which re-
quires bonds for twice the amount invested.
Respectfully,
JAS. B. GARDENHIRE.

IL The New York Mirror, neutral, If
giving its reasons for supporting the Amer.
lean nominees, holds the following language
which is worthy the attention of all who
merge every other consideration in the An
ti-Slavery crusade:
As 10 the Know-N Nothing Party, we do
not belong to it but, at the same time Pro
testant Americanism is one of the corner
stones Of the Mirror platform. We have
no apology 10 offer for the rottenness and
corruption of this or any other political or
ganlzation, or Of the demogogues who con-
troll them.
On the subject of Slavery, we are clear
and confident in our convictions, and entire
ly candid and conscientious in expressing
them. We regard Slavery, at present, as
necessary evil, but entirely under the
control of local and State legislation. We
hnow from personal observation that the fat
and glossy Slaves of the sunny South are
far happier than the hungry African pau
pers OF the cold rugged North.
II any one doubts the wreched condition
of the latter, let him take a peep at the
Five Point" --the ultimate rendezvous of
Free Niggerism. And as for the political
Aboltionists who keep up this eternal hue
and cry about the horrors of slavery and the
lelictles of "freedom;" who do not hesitate
to peril even the liberties Of twenty millions
of white men by their insane agitation, we
regard them as the most selfish, hypocriti-
cal, contemplate set of knavcs that ever
disgraced the form of humanity. They
make great professions of philanthropy, the
love OF their race; and yet leave thousands
TO starve and die around their own doors,
while they pirate and preach about the fc-
titious suilerings Of the 'poor slaves" who
spend much Of their time in singing, feast
ing and danoing among the "sugar cane
green" taking no thought for the morrow
what they shall eat, or what they shall drink,
or where wilhal they shall be clothed,
knowing that all these things will be pro-
videl for them.
