DRUNKENNESS A DIsEAsE.-Dr. Parish, of Media
Asylum for inebriates, in Delaware county,
Pennsylvania, lately delivered an interesting lee
ture in West Chester, upon Habit and it's
Laws" We learn from the West Chester VII
age Record that the leading topic of the lecture
was the habit of intemperance, and the ques-
ton argued from physical than a
moral standpoint The Doctor maintained that
drunkenness is disease and its victims can no
more help it than they can help an attack of the
cholera, yellow fever or consumption. This dis
ease may be hereditary, may be implanted by
the mother in the administering remedies to her
infant, etc. The doctor was decidedly down on
the profession for prescribing so much alcohol in
many of their remedies. great error of the
day is the manner in which the disease of ntem-
perance is treated. 1t has become the very bad
habit to denounce it crime, to rate it among
the vices, and consequently its unfortunate vic
Tins are cut off from the care and sympathy
they deserve and stand so much in need of, and
are looked only as meriting punishment for their
crime This is all wrong. When the great pub
lic-when temperance reformers look upon
drunkenness in its proper light-when the same
provision is made for its thirty thousand victims
in Pennsylvania that is made for the blind, the
crazy the poor-when the drunkard is taken
by the hand, encouraged sympathized with, and
made to feel that he is suffering with disease,
and is not a criminal in the eyes of the moral
world, important step will be taken in the
true pathway to temperance reform.

WILL PALPITAToRs EXPLODE 1.-THE following
comes to us from France The India rubber
beautifers, palpitators," etc., are yet more
dangerous At dinner party given by rich
parsonage of the official world, one of the ladies
was equally remarked for the exquisite proper
tions of her bust and the animation of her con-
versaton. Those who sat near the lady sud-
denly heard, in the middle of the dinner and of
some witty sally on her part, sharp, small de-
tontation such might be produced BY the
cracking open Of bean-pod. No one took any
notice of the inexplcable sound but it was OBJ
served that the lady became much less anima-
ted, that she kept one arm raised across her bo-
som, and famed herself necessarily during the
rest of the dinner, though the temperature of
the dinner-room was by no means too high. AS
soon the company rose from the table, the
lady, still tanning herself suddenly disappeared
butt as certain sharp eyes among her rivals had
caught sight of diminished outline she re-
treated from the sphere of vision good deal OF
Eerriment followed her disappearance. The
lady's absence was, however, very short, for she
returned to the drawing-room in the course of q
few minutes, triumphant in the same classic per.
lection that had excited so much admiration dur
ing the early part of the evening, and displayed
all the aplomb and vivacity which had made hel
so charming. The screwing of the stopper
through which the air is blown into that class O.
" fixtures" in question, having been made this
time sufficiently secure, the charms Of Madame
D. underwent further vicissitude through
the course of the evening.

This story is reprint of BtacE,oOods Magazine,
and 1t represents the perpleXitles of an artist
who fell in love with one young lady while he
was engaged 10 another. The ending is tragical,
but the story is well written, and very inte-
resting.

-"Godoiphiu," just issued by J. B. Lippin-
colt & Co., completes their "Globe" edition Of
Bulwer's novels, which have been in course of
publication Tor many months past. The low
price, $3.50 per volume, and the neat manner in
which this edition is gotten up has made it
very popular. The paper is good the type
clear, and the binding tasteful. The twenty-five
volumes, comprising the series, will make an
attractive appearance on the shelf of q library.

CHILDREN WITH THE POETS. Bg Harriet B.
McKeeyer. Published by ClaXton, Remsen &
Hafelfnger.
The compiler Of this volume has had in mind
the important influence which genuine poetry
exerts in cultivating the minds and refining the
tastes of the young. Having been for number
of years engaged in the work of education she
has felt the want of suitable book of poetry to
be put in the hands Of children as class-book,
and this collection is an attempt to supply the
desideratum. The selections are adapted to the
capacity of children between the ages of eight
and fourteen, and while many of the poems are
by English, American, and German authors of
eminence, a large portion of the work is COM
posed of gems gathered rom the corners of
newspapers, old scrap books, and similar
sources. Miss McKeever has exercised much
judgment and good taste in her selections.
and most Of them are well calculated to
interest as well as instruct the minds of
children, and, in the language of the
compiler, "to inculcate reverence for
holy things and places, for goodness in
every rank, pity for all the woes of man, ten
derness towards the enemy, aud forgiveness to
those who have wronged u.s." A few of the
pieces are hacknied, such as Clement @. Morris
might Before Christmas" Mrs. Hemans' "Casa
Bianca;' and Miss Jane Porter's "Chatterbox;"
and we would be glad to see book of poetry
for children in which they were lot included,
At the end Of the volume Miss McKeever has
given seven poems of her own which are equal
in merit to the most Of those which precede
them.

In speaking of Negro Suffrage, in

Iowa, "Are you wiser than the Repub-

force of any such arguments as the
above. We vote as we see fit to do,
regardless Of how others propose to
do. Otherwise we should be as we'll
drilled and as regardless Of principles
as the Democratic party. Any Repub-
