PRISON LUNATIC ASYLUM.

New York is taking the lead in an Important:
movement ia behalf of the criminal insane. For our
own part we have no doubt that many of the con
yicts in our penitentiaries are really insane persons
and much more need the treatmentof the Asylum
for the Insane than the discipline of the %penitenti'
ary. New York is now erecting, as an appendage
to her Auburn State prison, a large and commodi-
GUS building for the acc ommodation of this class
of persons, and we are informed that it is the pur.
pose of the State to invest it with the best hospital
endowments of the country.
Speaking of the arrangements, The Northern
Independent says:
The rooms for convicts are not mere cells, but
amply large for the purpose intended, and vel
lighted .and'w ell warmed. II is Impossible to make
sanitory regulations more perfect than they will be
in this institution, though it is prison'strong, and
everything about it will be subject to prison disci
pline. The object is to treat the convict IN a hu
name manner when reason fails, and he is no long
err capable of self control and also to afford a suit
able place for him il he remains insane after hi'
term Of service in prison has expired. Once saci
humanity to prisoners would have been deemed
misplaced. But since tho celebrated John How

RoorsrowoN, Dec. 7th, 1867.
DEAR FRIEND ROBINSON Your brief notice Of
the meetings in Geauga county, holden by myself
and the Remonds, is all, perhaps, which ought 10
be said of them. With the exception of the meot-
iugs at Munson and Chardon, they were, go far as
numbers are concerned almost a failure. Pcs
In Troy, our friends the Washes, the Kingsburys,
and the Posts did all that could be done, to make
us happy and oups meetings useful. Chester and
Caroline Nash and their children, in particular, be
slowed unwearied labor in getting up meetings,
and in getting US to and from the meetings. And
but for the naughtiness of the weather, we might
have had largo and profitable meetings. In mid.
dlefeld our friends the Portors did all in their pow.
or, and that was much. TO aid us in our work. In
Parkman, our excellent friends the Todds gave as
every possible aid. Hon. L.. G. Todd went with
us to Munson and Chardon, giving me a seat in HE
carriage, and giving us effective aid by his clear
and truthful speaking in our meetings. He hos,
till recently. acted with the Republican party, aud
was but recently a member of the State legislature,
He is now fully committed to the disunion cause.
In this he has the sympathy of his children, and I
think the cause in that section may expect much
from their faithful and intelligent labors.
The friends / have named, and to whom are 10
be added as not least, the Bartlets of Munson, are
among the most intelligent and devoted friends Of
humanity with which it has been my happiness to
meet.
am now in Portage county, and have had some
good meetings. But oh! the weather. We have
an anecdote of a quaint old minister, who in a dry
time prayed that the Lord would unstop the bottles
OF heaven and pour out abundant rain. 1t came
on to rain, and continued to rain until oil wero
weary of the unceasing torrents. The minister
prayed again, and said, 20 Lord il is true thy
servant did pray that the bottles of heaven might
be unstopped, but he did not expect the corks wsre
to be thrown away" This morning the sun 10
shining pleasantly, and l hope tae oorks have been
found and replaced. .r,.s.
l shall hold q few more meetings in this vicinity
in company of disqualification, who has commend
ed a term Of service for the Western Society which
| hope may be continued some two woeks. He Is
: and efficient worker. / wish much he was 80 sitn.
ated that he could devote the winter to the cause.

FIELD NOTES.

CooL-SPRING, Dec. 7th, 1857.
DEAR NJ: On Sunday, the Goth, ult., we went to
Columbiana-not unfrequently pronounced Co..
MISUNDERSTANDING a meeting appointed in the
school-house there. believe abolitionists never
had any better place in which to hold meetings in
that town, except when Lot Holmes and a few
other Quakers opened the doors of their meeting
house, half by persuasion, and half by some other
means. So long as Lot resided there the place
had O very superior representative of anti-slavery,
one whose agitation Of the question was unceasing,
whose zeal was untiring and who kept up a large
list of Bugle subscribers, and saw to it that all
paid for the papers they read. When he moved
west he either did not leave his mantle behind
him, or else no anti-slavery Elisha has been found
worthy to take it up. The past and present anti
slavery history Of Columbiana shows how great a
work can be done by a single faithful and cOnsis.
tent laborer, but unfortunately it is a Lesson not
one in a hundred can appreciate, nor one in q
thousand reduce to practice.
AT the hour appointed for our meeting we wen
to the school-house and found neither fire nor au'
dience, the absence of which was rather discour
aging under the circumstances. A FIRE was, how
ever, soon started, and as the atmosphere Of .he
room became warm, the seats became filled, anG
We speedily had a good audience-a very good
one for an afternoon session. In the evening thu
house was crowded, and we had an excellent time
The friends in Columbiana regarded our meeting
there as very successful.
On monday nigh TIVE went to Springfield
very unattractive place with an a~ttractiv,
name. / did not see the town by daylight
nor do l very much care so to do. 1t ha'
about $50 inhabitants, mostly Germans, or o
German descent. Though the town may not b
blessed with a scriptural flowing of milk an
honey, it is unquestionably flooded with Lage
Beer and Whiskey, possessing no less than fou
permanent doggeries, and one locomotive ditto, th
, latter combining in q Daguerrean Car iacilitie
for preserving q mans outer likeness and destroy
ina his inner one. Rum barrels you know, ar
, rather an unstable foundation on which to bull

truth of Sam Pateh's declaration that "son
" things can be done as we'll as Others" than fro
any expectation Of having much good accomplish
Y ed. We, however, had out q reasonable numb'
to hear us, but as to the intelligence and NOR
J. principle Of the majority, | respectfully declii
n saying anything. We gave them Of the milk

could 20 from place to place, we we're indebted to
the friends of the cause for their assistance in en-
abling us to meet our appointments. Mahlon r.
win of Cool Spring accompanied us for some days
in the commencement Of our mission, and also ut
its conclusion; several others also assisted in this
branch of anti.slavery service, for all Of which,
on the slaves behalf make this acknowledgment.
This labor Of conveying lecturers from place to
place, getting up meetings, and profering hospi-
tality is a work which should DO highly appreei-
ated, and is often more valuable to the cause than
monies paid into the Society's Treasury. And
when l %remember that those who have been
most active in thus cooperating with us, nre those
who always make their contributions yearly to
the funds of the society, l feel that the uame of
abolitionist which they bear has not been misap-
piled. In the tour which we have made, WI have,
up to this time been at no expense whatever. In
every place there were friends to entertain us. and
who bore the expenses of light, fuel, rooms and
any other incidentals connected with our enter
prise.

THE MISSION OF THE REPUBLICAN
PARTY.

Our readers will find on our first page o very
sensible article on the Republican party and its
mission, copied from the Ashtabula Sentinel.
Hitherto the purpose of the party has been alto
gcther below that now proposed by the Sentinel,
and we are sincerely rejoiced at any indications OF
a purpose TO elevate the standard, morally of the
party. The Sentinel's exhortation to Republicans
is excellent,-to make no more compromises with
slavery and yet it proposes to continue Its fidelity
to the Union with shareholders, and in no wise to
violate the constitution admittedly pro'slavery.
Here is q compromise at the start. Butt our
cotemporary is in earnest in its purpose to pu'
down slavery by the Republican party or by any
other means it will soon make the discovery tina
a pro.slavery constitution and union is no mere tt
be respected than a pro-slavery administration I'm
der Pierce or Buchanan. But this purpose of til
Sentinel, we fear is not shared even now by iarg
numbers of the party. We hopo it will prosecute
the missionary work with vigor and success

There is no stronger evidence of the power of superstition over weak and credulous minds, than the fact, that at the time when the ar- proach of any comet is announced, the world is to be set on fire immediately Why the tremendous centrpetal power of the sun, com bined with the centrifugal force of the comet, is still sufficient to drive it of, in an eliptcal orbit, to the utmost extremity of creation. However cratic and eccentric comets may be. they are governed by just as fixed and immu- table laws as those that regulate the planets, and never disturb the order and harmony of the Creators Universe. They are just as es- sental in the wisdom and economy of Divine Providence, as the matter which composes the stars, the planetary spheres, ard the satellites. Their mission is never destructive one, but seems designed for tour of exploration thro' the immeasurable' fields of space, that new worlds nay rise and shiue along their uncloud- ed pathway.

HE STUFFED SKIN OF A ROYAL CAprrvE.- Na'eran, Emperor of Rome was taken by Sa- DOT, King ofPersia. He was either killed in a tamClt, or by ordcr of his conqueror. The body ofthe dead Roman Emperor, was trea- ed with no more respect than when it had tabernaclcd the immortal spark of living one. The hide, after being tanned was stuffed, and having been painted red was suspended in the chief temple of the capital Here, it re- mpned for rm'ny years. It was the popular spectacle for holiday makers and visitors from the country. But it was put to more mpor- tant ends than this Ia after time, it happen ed that the Roman envoys at the Persian Court had misunderstanding, more or less se- rlous, with the Government to which they were temporarily accredited. When these anbassa- dcrs from Rome grew arrogant in their de- mands, it was the custom to conduct them in- to the presence Of the stuffed skin of the old eS-Emperor of Romc where they were asked it humility did not become them at sight of such a spectacle -Dr. Doraa.

DRINKING AFTER D1SSER-A man that cannot pass an evening without drink merits the name of sot. Why should there be drink for the purpose of carving on converse tion! Women stand in need of no drink to stimulate them to converse and I have a thousand times admired their patience in sit ting quietly at their work while their hus. band are engaged, in the same room with bottles and glasses before them, thinking mo- thing of the expense and still less of the shame which the distinction reflects upon thcnl We have to thank the women for many things. and particularly for their sober habits Men drive them from the taTle as if they said to them '' You have had enough food is sufficient for you but we must remain to fli ourselves with drink, and to talk in language which your ears ought not to endure.' When wo- men are getting up to retire from the table, men rise to honor them, but they take special care not to follow their example That which is not fit to be uttered before women is not fir to be uttered at all. The practice has been ascribed to desire to leave them to them selves But why should they be left to them selves Their conversation is always the most lively, while their persons are generally the most agreeable objects. No; the plain truth is, that it is the drink and the indecent talk, that sends women from the table a practice which 1 have always sbhorred-Cob- bea.
