The Healing Art.

The fact IS that the art Of curing,
except in its mechanical branch, sur
gerry, has made but little progress
from the earliest times. The inn
provement which we see in it has
consisted rather of the abandonment
Of the old process than the discovery
of the new ones. There has been an
immense change in medical practice
within two hundred years, for in
stance; but, If examined minuteIy, it
will be found that it is due mainly to
doctors giving up remedies they once
believed in rather than in their divis,
ing new ones. There have been two
or three remarkable and valuable
discoveries, such as vaccination and
quinine, but they have been the re-
suit of accident rather than Of res
search or experiment, and the tends
ency among all the best classes of
practitioners is in the direction Of
distrust Of all the "active treatment"
as il is called. The older doctors
grow-as very many must have re-
marked-the less medicine they give
and the practitioners of our day do
not give a gill whore their predecess-
ors in the last century gave gallon.
They are falling back, as if in dis
pair about medicine, more and more
on the plan Of simply placing the pa
tient in the most favorable natural
conditions, giving him good food and
drink and plenty Of fresh air when
he is weak, prescribing abstinence
when he is over fed, exercise when he
is too sedentary, rest when he is ja~
ded For those and they are unhap-
ily the great bulk of mankind, by
whom these remedies are unataina,
BILE, there is little hope in the medic
cal art, except in few acute diseas,
es. In fact, the main value Of ply,
sicians is now to be found in diagno,
sis-in plain English, in their ability
to tell people what is the matter
with them or whether any thing is
the matter, and what to eat, drink
and avoid, and to rise his patients

Indians in the Wisconsin Lsgisla ture.

The Kenosha Telegraph gives the
following "reminiscences Of Indian
legislation in the early day Of Wis,
consin Territory
Some thirty years ago two Of the
most prominent tribes Of Indians
then IN Wisconsin were naturalized
By act OF Congress and invested with
all lhe rights aud privileges OF citi-
zenship, these two tribes were the
Stockbridge and the 3rothertown,
who were located chiefly on the east.
ern side Of Lake Winnebago, and
comprchended in the former limits
OF Brown county. These Indians,
who had the right Of citizenship con
terred upon hem, awaited themselves
Of the elective franchise, and elected
from THEN number Representatives in
the Territorial Legislature OF Wis,
consin. For a number OF years in
succession, indians from these tribes
sat sioe by side with the white men
in tbe territorial ass mbly at Maids
son. 1t is hardly necessary to say
that the Congress which by act Of
legislation made the Stock bridge and
Brothertown Indians citizens was
Democratic.
The Indian Legislatures referred to
were tolerabiy shrewd men and eau
tious in law making; but they were
neither brilliant nor refined. In ad
dltion to the two tribes here spoken
OF, there Is another instance of lndi-
an representation in the early history
OF Wisconsin. Mr. LaChapelle, of
Prairie du CHEN, was twice elected
to the Territorial Council(now an
swering to the Senate)to represent
the county Of Crawford. Mr.. La
Chapeile was of Indian and French
blood being defendant Of the great
Indian Chief Wabasha. He had the
advantage Of good education, and
was regarded "a good literary critic.
His manner was very excent ric and
his preiudices unconquerable. AS IL
Illustrative Of his peculiar tempera>
went The following incident may be
taken
Hon. Morgan / Martin, of Green
Bay, was member Of the Wisconsin
Territorial Council at the same ses.
session Of which Mr. LaChapelle was
"a member A new county was about
to be organized, and while the mat
ter was under discussion, Mr.. Martin
moved that it be named Wabasha af>
ter the great Indian ancestor OF La
Chapelle. Mr.. Martin had very gems
erously supposed that 1t would be
taken as a high compliment by La
Chapelle, but it proved sthe reverse,
Mr. La Chapelle left the counciI
chamber deeply agitated, nor did he
return again during the balance Of
the session to fulfil his duties as
member lie lin,, ered about the
capital until the hnal adionrnmcnt
apparently prey to melancholy
speaking scarcely a word ) any one,
Such are in brief, some Of the res
membranes of Indian Legislators in

A SENSIBLE NEGRO IN THE Ala
BAMA CoNyENTIoN.-Cne of the col>
ored delegates in the Alabama Con
ventlon, gray headed old negro
named Lee, of much more than the
average intelligence of his associates
in the convention, stood out alone
against the policy Of disfranchise~
ment and prescription. He was
threatened and abused in the conven-
ton, and barely escaped rough hand
ling by negro mob in the city, but
he stood firm to his convictions Of du-
ty. During the discussion Of the
question, he sent 10 the clerk, to be
read, this brief and logical statement
Of his views:
81 advocate the adoption Of the
minority report, because this report
grants equal rights to all men Of eve.
ry race and every color. This is all
that !, as colored man, can ask for
my race To ask for more would be
wrong and unjust | have no desire
to take away any of the rights of the

IN the courthouse, and e1dal rights
when / 20 TO vote. | think the time
has come when charity and modera
ton should characterize the action of
us all. Besides, the minority report
is confined strictly to the reconstruc-
ton measures Of Congress, which
measures define the powers and limit
the action Of this convention. To 90
beyond these would be to endanger
the ratification OF the con tuition
formed by this convention, Doth BY
the people and BY Congress, and |
believe that If the colored race do not
get their rights secured without de,
lay, the probability is they will nev
er get them. | therefore hope that
the principles contained in the major,
! ity report will not pass, bat that tht
minority report will be adopted"
