lll-Treatmeht Of Insane Per-
sons

Apropos of the discussion thot has arisen
concerning the mismanagemeDt of insane
asylums, and the alleged confinement OF
sane people in them, the New York Oh
server adds the following conclusive edito-
rial:
But few days since as we were travel
ing on one Of our great railroad thoroug-
fares, and tie train stopped at station, a
delicate lady was violently dragged into
The Car by two strong men, and with need
'css force, thrust into seat, one of the men
taking his scat by her side The lady i'm
mediately rose, and without any undue ex.
citement. or anything that indicated insan-
ity, appealed to the passengers, saying that
these men-one of whom, the one sitting
by her side, was acoachman--were taking
her, without any just cause to an insane
asylum. thperfcct composure she gave
the name and address of one of her friends
in Brooklyn, requesting some passenger to
inform him of her forcibIe removal to
an insane asylum. She showed her arm,
black with bruises which she said she had
received from violent treatment, and there
were marks Of violent treatment on her
face A gentleman near her took her ad
drest and that of her friend, and assuring
her that he lived in the city to which she
was being taken and that he would see to
it that she should not be unjustly confncd
she became quiet.
Not a word was offered in explanation
bv her attendants. Whether she was in
sane or not, she was the victim Of gross
violence in the manner in which she was
treated, by thosc, who had her. in, charge =
Her treatment was also gross outrage OF
the feelings ofthe passengers, and especial
ly of several ladies who were in the car
and who could not fail to deeply spmpa
thize with one Of their own sex in such cir
cumstances. - -.tt .--..f 4.

waking Up the Wrong Pass
Rnger.

Railway travelling has its jokes as well
MS its pcrils, in Canada. a Montreal paper
says that an incident which blended
farce with tragedy, in fact, q case Of wa
king up the wrong passenger with ven
gcaDce.
A Southern gentleman accompanied by
his wife, son, nurse and three or four of
his daughters, who Was going westward
took berths for the whole party on the car.
Himself and wife occupied berth at one
extremity OF the car, while the others
were compelled 10 seek slumber (not thai
they found it) at the other. The eldest o.
the daughters, aged Is and ., respectively
occupied the lower ber,bs, the nurse and
her charges the upper. Toward midnigh;
the two-year-old awoke, and went TO the
drinking fountain for drink of water; on
returning, she went to the left hand berth
instead Of the righl, when oh. horrors!
what sight met her gaze! Her sister, as
she supposed, was slumberirg peacefully
with her face near masculine face, abun
dainty bearded She tottered to her sire
and whispered the horrible tidings in his
ear. The sire arose, the hot blood Of the
Southern chivalry boiling in his veins, and
rushed 10 the indicated berth. 1t was true,
the same brown hair, the same poplin dress
there was no room for doubt, and he let
the slumbering man have it between the
eyes, straight from the shoulder, a blow
from the injured fathers arm that would
have felled an OK. The astonished man
awoke and strove to defend himself from
the shower of blows, but the surprise and
the cramped position prevented him, the
lady, faithless viper, awoke, screamed "my
husband" TO the amazement of the pugilis-
tic parent, who at once imagined a secret
marriage. And from the opposite berth
the original daughter screamed papa"
Tableaux. The father was covered with
shame, and rendered ample apologies
which the assaulted at first refused to ac-
cept, demanding blsod. At last the mat
ter was quieted. Next morning the par.
ties met at breakfast, tho ladies formed an
amalgamation, and all went merry as an
engine bell, the assaulted entering Toron-
to with two black eyes, a nose big enough
for two. and frontispiece illustrated with
cuts. a--. .f

A little pamphlet published lately by
Prof. Morse, on, Modern Ietegrophy,
makes clear two hitherto distorted facts
apropos of the recent comforting ofkpight-
Hood upon Chacles 'Wheatstone for the es-
tablishment OF telegraph, "not only in the
United Kingdom, but throughout the
civilized world. Setting aside the mere
question of priority lin point of time.
(Which, however, Prof Morse also claims
for America,) he shows that in the first
place the English system makes signals,
while the Amcrican system sciites- the
latter, of course being therefore the. ttte.
graph, and the former what has long been
known as The SemdlehQre, though. first
electrically worked By rWheatstone. The
second point is ip regard TO the establish
ment oitclegraphy throughout the civillz-
ed world"-the fact being that tie English
system Is used in the United Kingdom of
Great Britain only, whilcy the American
system is used throughout the United
States, Mexico, South America, the West
Indies, Canada. and the British Provinces
in America, Australia and India, besides
having been adopted by the Paris Interna-

Mr. Herman Levi, of Cincinnati, former
ly Of Saline county, Arkansas, says dis
ease resembling the cattle plague now pre-
vailing, was introduced into Arkansas some
dozen years ago, by drove Of Cherokee
or Texas cattle. An immense amount of
stock was carried off by the plague at that
time; the only remedy found to have any
effect in checking the disease was spirits of
camphor poured in the ears of the infected
animals. This, he tried, and saw others
use it with unvarying success. A large Ia
BILE spoonful of camphor poured into each
ear, produced almost immediate relief, and
repeated al intervals of about an hour al
ways cured. In the same region Cattle
were almost constantly annoyed by ticks.
but II was found that -four of sulphur, free
ly sprinkled on the food of the cattle made
them shed their shaggy hair and with il

ly 1t could not any longer be said that as
soon as the rebels laid down their arms,
the States were again in their constitution
al orbit as before the war. Congress, the
people, no longer maintained their former

and endorsed the steps Of Lincoln. The

From the Nashville Gazette.
An Astounding Discovery.

A gentleman from the neighborhood of
Carthage, Tennessee, gives us some par
ticulars connected with the recent discoy-
cry of robbers cave, on the river bank,
few miles distant from that place, which
have hitherto been published. He says
the discovery was first made by party
of small boys, who were bathing or fishing
on the bank of the river opposite the cave.
Their attention was attracted by seeing
baskets lowered by means of ropes from
the rocks above. When they observed
this, the children concealed themselves,
and patiently watched for further develop
ments. The baskets continued to ascend
and descend. and at last, when night was
nearly at hand, very suipicieus looking
man came out of the cave, got into a bas.
ket and was drawn to the top of the prec
ipice. That night the boys impaired this
information to men in the neighborhood
and early the next morning the place was
bcsieged by persons anxious to learn some
thing further about this most extraordina-
ry place. Most of these persons were
armed and ready for any sort Of wild adj
ventures. Upon removing a pile of old
logs large opening IN the rocks was dis
covered, and into this place party of the
men at once ventured to 60, while Others
remained outside on the watch. Those
who went ia found that the opening led
into an immense cave, OF the existence OF
which nothing was previously kn"wn by
honest people in that locality. This cav
ern the men explored but short distance
until they came TO point which had evi
IDENTIFY been used as human habitation
and, horrible as il may seem, was the home
Of human creature. After finding few
articles Of clothing, some washing uten-
sils, couple of fine bedquilts, i mattress
and three or four old guns, they were star
tied by the groans Of human voice com
ing from dark recess in the cave. &.
The men determined upon sitting the
mystery to its very bottom, went with a
| light in the direction of the sound, and
who can imagine their horror upon finding
the emaciated and almost lifcless form Of
a man, stretched upon heap Of straw,
and securely tied with repes. lie was i'm
nediately taken from his terrible prison
house and conveyed to the residence OF
Mr.. Owen Long, three miles distant from
the cave, where he was at once provided
with medical attention and the nourish
mcnt his condition required. As yet 1t has
not been possible to get from him the aw-
ful secret of his gravelike prison house.
He speaks but little and appears to be
either unable or unwilling to give any fur
ther account than is above furnished. 9th
er Developments are anxiously looked for.
and when received shall speedily be laid

Many an orchard owner. who sees his
young trees rejoicing in royal growth this
summer, looks forward with trepidation To
the perils by mice and rabbits, through
which they mnst pass next winter. Various
remedies are recommended. Alas, that so
many dead trees each spring are the monu-
ments to their worthlessness. Some orch
ardists practice rubbing animal blood up
the trees in the fall as protection against
rabbits. Tramping the snow around the
trunks diScOurages the mice. Unfortunate
ly there is often no snow to be tramped.-
DIR. Nichols thinks he has found sure
guard against these smaller enemies, which
is as follows:
Take equal parts of pine tar and Esh oil
and mix them together thoroughly by heat
ing, then take brush and put the mixture
on the trees close to the ground and II or
fifteen inches up around the body. Ii will
not injure the trees and there will be no
mere trouble from mice. tried the expcr-
tment on fifty trees last winter, and il
worked like perfect charm. My trees
never were more thrifty than during the
present season.
We should very naturally suppose the
same protection would hold good against
rabbits.

Brownlow says: "Now that the contest
has narrowed down 10 one between the
old rebel leaders of the South andthe loyal
masses North and South, hundreds that yo
led with the enemy last summer are COM

The Radicals carried the State last fall by

jority will not fall below 10000. From
every county in East Tennessee we hear Of
daily accessions to the Radical ranks, and
they are joining the leagues rapidly. Many
intelligent men who acted with the con-
servative party say they can't stand such
speeches as are made by Wade Hampton,
