CoNsuMPTIoN.-Dr. Churchill, an Ameri-
can physician residing in Paris, has advanced
a new treatment for consumption with very
favorable results. He says the disease is
caused by an undue waste, or insufficient
supply Of phosphorous in the system. To
supply this want, he administers phypophos
phate of lime and soda, in doses Of from
five to twenty grains daily, in small quan
tity of sweetened water.

IMPORTANT LAW SUIT IN New YoRK-lE-
TEREsTING TO CAsHIERs.-In New York case
has just been decided that may be of interest
stock. There, as here, weekly statements of
the condition of the banks, certified by the
cashiers, are published. A purchaser of the
stock of the bank whose statement was "due
from other banks, $l29, 900" while the actual
amount due was only So, ,OOo, sued the cashier
for this difference in the assets of the bank,
making difference of $40 on the value Of
each share of stock. The cashier demurred
to the action, and the Judge below sustained
the demurred on the ground that if any one
was liable it was the bank, not the cashier
The Supreme Court has, however, reversed
the Court below, and asserts that the cashier
is liable, personally, if he fraudulently mis-
states the assets Of the bank. .t..

A NEW ENGLAND GIRL ELorEs WITH CIR
Gus RIDER, AND Is FOUND IN NEW York
BAGNIo.-During the month of September
last the household of worthy citizen, from
Portland, Me- was thrown into great confu-
sion by the sudden disappearance of his eld-
est daughter, a handsome young lady of about
twenty years. 1t was afterward ascertained
that she had visited circus, performing at
the time in Portland, and having made there
the acquaintance of one of the employees, had
eloped with him. Ever since the unhappy
father has been in search of his missing
daughter, until short time ago he was in
formed that she was leading life of ill-fame
in New York. The father found her in Cros-
by-street, in thatcity, and took her, extremely
repentant, to her New England home. The
villain who had seduced her deserted her in
less than two weeks, and she was compelled
to resort to life of shame.

An Abuse that Needs Correction.

There is practice of picking up people on
the strength Of telegraphic dispatch, and
putting them in Jail for safe keeping, in
vogue with the police of this city, the pro-
priety of which, in a good many cases, is ex-
tremely doubtful. When felony has been
committed, and the suspected party has fed
under circumstances calculated to corrobo-
rate the suspicion, it is, perhaps, proper to
act upon information received by telegraph to
the extent to detain the fugitive, if
discovered, until pursuers may overtake
him, or more formal processes he sued out.
But with some of our detectives it would
seem as if dispatch from some place at a
distance is esteemed of higher authority than
the warrant of local Magistrate and men,
| as we frequently observe in the newspaper
reports, are not only arrested but imprisoned
for acts which are neither breaches Of our
law or of any other. ...-
For example: young couple leave Ken.
lucky for Cincinnati with view to mar.
riage, the measure being suggested by the
opposition Of the friends of one or both of the
parties. The act may be foolish one; per
haps, in most cases, it is 80; but it necessarily
involves no breach of the law either of Ohio
or Kentucky. The parents, however, OF
guardians, or somebody having or feigning al
interest in the matter, discovers the escaped
and straitway word is sent over the wire
> that Mr.. So-and-So must be taken up an
so disposed ofas to prevent the sought for con
: l afs hao ha
,, within very recent period; and our intell
/ gent and highly virtuous authorities out {
tender regard, it is not to be doubted, to th
: morals ofsociety, and with view to the MOI
perfect observance of the fifth commandment
acting upon the telegraphic hint, have pr,
: ceeded at once to grasp the bridegroom thI
was to be, and clap him under public loc
ank key, while the bride is kept under su
veillance to await the arrival of the indignal
and outraged projenitor, or packed up ar
sent back 10 his arms, by the next mail-bo
or train, under the especial charge Of Il
! | captain or conductor.
Now all these performances are breaches
! the law, and fagrant invaslons OF the rlgh
| of the parties concerned. They render tho
by whom they are committed subject to a
3 tions at law and exemplary damages, fro
which, however, they escape through u
; fear or the ignorance or the weakness Of y
persons aggricved. They form part OF tn
series Of unjust practices by which, under
7 pretense of peculiar tenderness in respect
) | the public morals, so many acts of illeg
, cruelty are committed. There is loosent
in this respect among us, which needs CO
: rection; and we mention II in the hope that
will be corrected. tpfi.-N tVk -.

People often mistake their own feelings.
A selfish desire to avoid being troubled with
the Affections Of others often deludes aperson
with the idea that he has peculiarly tender
sympathiesi 0 disturbance of the digestion
seems sentiment; and often ones own envy,
hatred, and uncharitableness, seems Alright
eous indignation against sinners. These are
instances there are hundreds Of the same
kind. Perhaps If many of the audience at
the second Patti concert would analize their
feelings, they would find that what they mis-
take for musical enthusiasm, is only anatural
desire to get the most for their money.

particulars of case in which physician in

somehow into debt, was pounced upon and
completely stripped of his property by his
merciless creditors. He had a small farm, a
part of which his children were plowhing
preparatory to planting potatoes, quantity
having been distributed in the field for that
purpose. The potatoes was seized by one
candidate, the horse which the doctor used
in his practice, by another, while another
flinty-hearted creditor cleared the house of
the family provision, and still another took

thus not only deprived of their present sub

In another column will be found COM
munication from J. Q. A. Foster, the pur-
chaser of the colored man Waggoner, at the
recent Sheriff's sale at Alexandria, in which
he makes certain propositions touching his
future disposition. We presume that the
propositions are made in good faith, and that
Doctor Foster is willing TO afford such facili-
ties as will enable the friends of Waggoner
to make such an issue as shall permit fair
trial of the question, and full realization of
all the legal consequences of the decision
in case it should be made in favor Of the cap
tive. 1t is rather hard matter to require a
man taken by force or fraud from the enjoy
ment of free citizenship in Ohio, and in
whose case no master claiming his services
appears, to prove in order to escape a servi-
tude de noto, the negative proposition that he
is not a slaps; but if this is Kentucky law,
Justice and comfy, it must be submitted to,
and the friends of Waggoner had better ac-
cept the proposition and proceed to business
as fast as possible.
II is pretty evident that there is some un-
essiness felt by those who have taken an
active part in bringing the colored man to
his present condition, and this growing out
of the present state of public feeling not
abroad, but at home. There is in fact, if we
are rightly informed, a sentiment making its
appearance at Newport, which is anything
but promising to the tranquility of the actors
in this drama This is right. The feeling !:
in the right place, and while it will beget
the respect of other communities toward thai
people, its effect in other respects will bC
