Curious Medical Phenomena.

ing Of liquor, the use Of alcoholic
fluids is supposed to bc,chiefy con-
fined to medicinal purposes. The
report Just made by the general
agent, discIoscs the fact that dis
eases required to he treated with
different kinds ofliquor depending
on tie part Of the State in which
they prevail. The Springfield Re-
PUJiican says:
There is usually one variety Of
Imedicinc more sought than any or
all others i'll each locality. lToI-
land gin seems to be the favOrite
restorative in Adams. Amherst
gives the preference to whisky
Booklet goes in strong for good old
Santa CroiX rum. Bclchertoll
takes to the more economical luXu-
ry Of Mcdford rum; so does Brook
field. Chicopee Falls, Charlemont
and Greenfield go in for something
more substantial, and take most
frequent doses Of brandy. Florida
divides its affections between bran
dy and Mcdford rum. Monson
takes whisky. northampton is
singular in its ailments, and alone
gives ITS preference to London por-
ter. Pittsfeld buys Santa Croix
rum, and nothing else. Westfeld
is delicate and ariStocratic, and
convalesces chiefly on wine. while
Wilbraham is economical in its
medicine and buys only Medford
rum and alcohol. A doctor or Il
statistician could probably run his
eye over these town medicine bills,
and tell at glance the prevailing
distempers OF each town, or per
haps the preferred system Of mcdi-
cal practice, orthe private drinking
preferences Of the doctors in each
place. Bat such deductions are
beyond the reach of our analysis,

SPEECH
Hon. G. H. Pendleton, of Ohio,
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES,, DECEM-
BER 10, 1861,
CONCLUDED.


In 1907, when Mr.. Jefferson sub
mitted to Congress certain docu-
ments relating to the alleged con.
spiracy for a dismemberment Of the
Union, the Senate took the alarm.
and, with entire unanimity, passed
a bill suspending the privilege for
three months; it was defeated in the
House of Representatives-rejecte
on its first. reading by an over
whelming majority.
I pause to notice a curious criti-
cism upon this passage by the At
torney General in his labored argu-
ment in favor Of the power Of the
President. lie says:
"The court does not speak of susrending
the privilege of the writ, bat Of suspending
the powers vested in the courts by the act
"Ifbv the phrase
suspension of the privilege ofthe writ of ha
beas corpus we must understand repeal O.
all the power to issue the writ, then freel y
admit that none but Congress can doit."
The Attorney General thinks
that the powers of a court are
more carefully guarded than the
personal liberty Of the citizen; thai
the first can be suspended only by
the joint action Of the whole !egjs'
lative body; but that the latter is
committed to the discretion Of the
President alone. He thinks that {
suspension of the privilege of the
writ does not interfere with tht
powers vested in the courts. Wha'
are those powers? To compel thu
production Of the body of the pris
oner by his custodian that he may
be remanded, discharged, or bailcd
and, for this purpose, to use til,
powers of the marshal and hi
posse. If the President directs hi
subordinate to refuse to produce tn
body of the prisoner, to defy tn
authority Of the marshal, to use th
Army of the United States to resis
his posse, does he not interter
with the power vested in tn
courts?
The privilege ofthe writ involve
the right Of the party to invoke AM

gate the entire system which we
have built upon the foundations

have spoken on the hustings or
published in a newspaper criticisms
on his policy distastetul to the
President Or his Cabinet; newspa-
pcrs lave been suppressed; their
transmission through the mails re-
fused; their circulation by express
companies prevented; freedom Of

abridged; and in the department of
Ohio Il second arrest by the mill

scarcely command a passing notice
