brief, sparkling essays. 1t is warm and en-

as tits by the cooler and more critical remarks
of the editor in his 'Nebule," furnishes us
with very correct estimate of the character
and genius of this ''large-brained woman and
large hearted man, self-styled George Sand"
The organization of the first colored regiment
in the war is amusingly told by James Frank

who voted phoenix" as the best name for our
park, his most hearty thanks, inasmuch as he
reels, that by naming it after the famous Dub
lin park, they intendedra graceful compli-
ment to our citizens OF Hibernian origin, for
the tmid bashfulness displayed by them after
our great fire, in urging their claims for relief
or, as Pat more concisely said,-"Bedad, an
weren't we all burrent out? an divil STINT
did We git at all, at all, jist-the spalpeens!"
He also says that there is no mistake about the
bird; for, again quoting his own rich, touching
vernacular: 'Begorra! an many the dark night
tits me own two eyes has counted millions, all
as big as gooses, a-resting on the fence right
forninst. the park, and ev'ry mothers son on

The official report of the government inves-
tigation into the loss ofthe Sound steamer
Commodore is published. The facts look even
worse for the company than was anticipated
Not only was the vessel unseaworthy by .rea-
son of her age and her light draught, but she
was not properly equipped according to law.
and for the latter reason the local inspectors at
New London,-who for some inscrutable cause
agreed to overlook her ether defects.Arefused
to give her the necessary certificate. With
such vessel as this, the captain sailed out of
port, without consulting his barometer, trust
ing the lives of his passengers to chance
mat the cruel waters of the Sound did not
prove grave to most of them is owing in no
way to any precautions on the part Of the COM
pany. The report says: .f.. XXX -i.
The crew seem to have been inadequate to
the emergency, Tor some OF them were totally
unacquainted with the management of boats
1t is wonder, therefore, that no lives were lost
in landing. Not little of blame pertains to
the captain of the steamer, for taking her TO
sea, knowing the character OF ms vessei, as ne
must have done on such day; and had he
consulted and relied on his barometer, he GER
tainly would not have ventured out have
been at some pains to ascertain the state of the
barometers at different localities at that time,
they indicated severe weather, they being ear
lier in the day at an average of about 29i0, and
at night as low as 2S.8-an infalhble indica.
ton of violent weather in these attitudes. The
captain, unfortunately, placed no reliance on
his barometer on the Sound 1t is the hel;ef
of eminent seamen, among whom may be men
TONED ADMIRAL Fitzroy, that many ships are
wrecked and lives lost, by disregard of the
promotions of this useful instrument. From
the facts above recited, gathered from the testi-
mony OF trustworthy witnesses, there can be
no doubt that the Commodore was lost bv rea.
son OF her manifest unfitness to Withstand a
gaze OF any severity in the waters which she
was employed in navigating arising partly
from her age and consequent weakness partly
from the indiscretion of her captain, first in
taking her to sea- and then when at sea in not
making a harbor. She was also lacking in
equlsments, and therefore unseaworthy, and
being nayigated without certificate, her own
ers are liable to penalty for a violation of law
The loss of this vdssel affords commentary on
the necessity for additional and effective legis-
lation. The law as it now stands is totally in
adequate to the enforcement of the moral obi

L was almost gone with consumption.
After receiving two treatments from you
ielt like new being. have been gaining
ever since, and now feel that my health Is
fully restored. IN regard to your Other
patients In Albion, IL would do your heart
good to hear them tell their own story.
Miss Armstrong. who the doctors said " as
in the last stages of consumption, you
cured with two treatments, and is now in
good health. Mr.. b. q. Phillips, whom
you treated for diseased kidneys and spi-
into the harvest field and worked all day,
and felt well, not experiencing any pain,
and he has not felt any of it since. Mrs.
Henry Bash, the lady who had large
fatty tumor over her stomach, larger than
pint bowl, with dropsy of the abdomen,
says DIR. Persons has cured her, or so nearly
that she thinks she will soon be entirely
Well. Miss Hannah Hays, who had walked
with crutches for thirty years and gener-
ally diseased, has been helped so much by
your treatment that she can now walk
she has for years. 1 know if you would
return to Marshalltown, you would be
crowded all the time, for so many are say
ing If they knew as much of Dr. Persons
as they now do, they would not call him q
humbug, as they had. III fl..
