INSANITY AND MAGSETIsM.-The San
Francisco Times Of last Thursday says
A very singular illustration Of the power
of magnetism in diseases Of the brain,
occurred last night. A man named Jos.
N. Settle, q miner, from Placerville,
staying at the Occidental Hotel, sudden
ly became insane, and rushed down into
the reading room Of the hotel, in q per-
fectly frantic state. II was found neces.
sary to remove him, but so violent were
his struggles that four policemen were
scarcely able to convey him to the sta
ton house. During his passage there
he had been observed by DR.. J. NJ.
Grant, a magnetism, who ut once Of
fered his services in soothing and quiet.
ing the maniac. When the man arrived
at the station house he was in q condi-
ton of the most violent excitement, and
il was impossible for any n to ap-
proach him with immunity. DR.. Grant
requested the officers who were restrain
ing his struggles, to release him, and
then quietly placed his hands upon the
sufferer. Settle at once sank into a
chair, and the doctor began to magnet
ize him. In FIVE minutes the raving,
furious mailman was as quiet rs child,
and in the course Of half an hour he
was as calm, and almost as rational in
his demeauor as any Of those who stood
around him. Before the doctor left him
he was able to converse freely, and al
though he appeared to be totally obliv-
ious Of the frantic states he had been
brought out of, he seemed to have re-
covered entirely from the maniacal af-
fiction which caused his detention.
The man was not suffering in any way
from the effects of drink, and the attack
appeared to be caused by n general de-
rangement of the system.

SHOCKING SUICIDE BY A WoMAN-SHE
SHOOTS HERSELF THROUGH II HEART
About three o'clock P. NJ, yesterday,
Mrs. Ellen e. Dix committed suicide at
No. 500 Dupont street, by shooting her.
self through the heart with o Derringer
pistol. She came to this city about
three months since from the East, rep
resenting herself as the wife of q man
doing business here, from whom she
had been absent for several years.
Soon after, she took rooms with her re-
puted husband and her little girl, aged
about six years, at the place mentioned.
Yesterday afternoon the little girl went
to her mothers room, but the door was
fastened and she could not get in. She
told the landlady, who raised q window
and assisted the little girl into the room.
She found her mother lying reclining on
a sofa apparently asleep. She tried to
arouse her but could not, then opened
the door and the lady came in. she
discovered that Mrs. Dix was dead, and
the traces of blood on her dress and
hand, and the presence Of a Derringer
pistol, indicated that she had committed
suicide, and upon examination being
made il was found that she vas shot
through the heart. The placidity OF her
features aud position Of her person
showed that she had died without a
struggle. 1t now appears that the per-
son who lived with her was not her nus
band. Her face was beautiful, Inc her
general appearance denoted a woman
Of refined nature, and it is supposed
that suame and keen remorse forced her
to the dreadful act Of self-murder.-

"E PLURIBUs UNUlI.,

"THE OVERLAND MoSrHLY."-This is
the rather singular title of a now maya
zine, published at San Francisco, by A.
Roman L Co. The Overland announces
in its title page that it is devoted to the
development of the country, and its ar
~ticles, which refer almost exclusively to
Pacific coast matters, promise its full
fllment. On the title page is a grizzly
bear, pictured in the act Of crossing the
Pacific Railroad, and is scowling Vi
ciously at a coming train, IMPLYING the
barbarian opposing the advance of pro-
gress. The name is chosen as more
comprehensive and direct than /" Paci-
6c," Wide West" "California," OF
the many other names suggested. The
typographical appearance of the new
magazine is very fine indeed, and in its
general features it resembles the Allan.
tic Monthly. Such a publication, upon
the plan proposed, will be heartily vel
coined throughout the Pacific coast,
and we wish 1t success.

THE DAY WE CELEBRATE.

Tomorrow, for the ninety-second
time, the American people will celebrate
an event, the Importance whereof is not
circumscribed by the limits of the Gov
eminent which it was instrumental in
establishing, nor the Continent Of which
that Government forms o part. From
East to West, "from Indus to the Pole"
the Declaration made by the patriot
band that congregated in Independence
Hall on the 4th of July, l776, has been
the tocsiu of progress, advancement,
and the elevation of human kind. Even
the loss to England Of her American
colonies has been more than compeu-
stated by the liberalization Of ideas and
the elevation of her middle and lower
classes that have resulted as effects Of
the American Declaration of Independ-
euce. England, Europe and Asia are
to-day centuries further advanced in
civilization, freedom and the substan-
tial elements Of progress, than they
would have been had there been no
American Declaration of Independence.
The equality Of each member Of the
human family with any and all others,
and his equal right to enjoy the fruits
| of his efforts to cultivate the faculties
| with which his Creator has endowed
him, are gradually becoming recog'
nized, the world over, mainly as a result
of the American Declaration Of lnde-
peudeuce. As a demonstrable conse-
~ouence of tha. Declaration, the ideas
of Bright, Gladstone and Goodwin
Smith arc the popular sentiments OF
England; the despotisms Of France ana
Russia are welded in the interests OF
freedom and regard for the welfare OF
the general public +; Chinese and Japan
csc exclusiveness are giving place
to cosmopolitan intcrcommunica-
ton E; the proud monarchies OF
Austria, Prussia and Italy bow TO the
populace, and highest capacity and cui-
tivation of manhood is gradually be-
coming the sole tombstone and chief
test of capacity to govern. The world
is wiser, freer, better; and governed by
a loftier inspiration, as a result OF the
American Declaration Of Independence,
than it would have been for ages in the
absence of that declaration and the in
telligeut efforts subsequently made to
maintain and perpetuate the principles
therein contained. Jointly and har-
moniously all lovers Of freedom and
progress should celebrate the day which
gave birth to this Declaration.

HUNTING on THE PLAINs.-The Saint

c. Messiter, Of England, who, with
Capt. Fitzmathews, late Of the English

the plains, returned yesterday looking
hale and hearty, though considerably
bronzed by the weather. He left his
party about 800 miles out on Solomon's
Fork enjoying rare sport among the buff
falo and other game. When he left, the
party had killed some 6 buffaloes,
mostly old bulls, whom they picked out
on account of their exhibiting more
game and affording more sport, % ante

Swim, q nice young mechanic, had a
pretty wife and four children. Swim

SYNpATHY.-Let us cherish sympathy.
By attention and exercise it may be i'm
proved in every man. It prepares the
mind for receiving the impressions oil
virtue ; and without it there a be no
true politeness. Nothing is more obi
Gus than insensibility which wraps a
man up in himself and his wi con.
Germs, and prevents his being moved
with either the joys or sorrows Of an
other. This inhuman temper, however
common, seems not to be natural to the
soul Of man, but to derive itself from
the evil habit of levity, s%el6shuess or
pride; and will, therefore, be easily
avoided by those who cultivate the OPP
posite habits of generosity, humanity
and good nature. OF these amiable
affections, the forms Of common civility
and the language of polite conversation
are remarkably expressive ; a proof that
good breeding is founded in virtue and
good sense, and that q kind and honest
heart sthe first requisite to an engaging
department.

Whether suggested by the Queen, or BY ira
ditional genius Of that city Of London which
was once the fortress Of those who were the
friends Of the Americans, it is significant
enough, as showing that in spite Of the hoi
old family blood and the blows struck in the
red heat OF mortal passion-in spite Of the
recent chickering's and jealousies, and even
the fear that we may all take to the wicked
old style Of arbitrament again, on some sud
den urging, there is still something that
draws together these two great families oil
English.speaking men. The thing may have
some extent and sentiment in 1t. But extent
and sentiment are very good things in their
way, when they occur on the side Of sound
reason and good feeling.
1t is our impression that, while
Johnny Bull prays for the Queen from
the force of habit and because he loves
her, the prayers for the President are
suggested by the extreme need Of them
apparent in the conduct Of the present
incumbent of the Presidential Office.
