We are much bound to them that do succeed.
But, in more pathetic sense. are bound

So much to do; impetuous even there,

Its power is in the look which costs him all.

A BUFFALO fisherman was recently
astonished on examining some lines

hooked into the bills of 50 many dead

when caught by the hooks Mere held

singular Case of supposed l.unacy

OAuS uAbr OaoO Oh SORROScu A<HmaCys
A most singular circumstance has recently &C.
Cured in Louisville. One Robert Sadlsr being
arraigned on . writ of lunatico inquirend0, the
following appeared in testimony: 1t was al.
legated that in the night time he would alarm
his family and his nsighbors with screams as il
in severe pain, exclaiming that he felt the pain
inflicted upon persons ct distance, by amputa-
ton or other causes. Mr.. Sadlsr was said to be
OF good character and incapable Of wilfuly fsign-
ing what he did not feel, sad therefore was sup
posed by his friends to b insane. In conse-
qusnce Of this belief writ was issued to make
the proper legal inquiry and TO decide the ques-
ton. The jury, however, could not agree to call
him insane and he was discharged. It was
proved that he uttered his cries and expressions
Of pain at the precise time that those with whose
sufferings he claimed t. b in sympathy were
actually undergoing the operations, which would
cause similar pain and this under circumstan-
ces which precluded the belief that he could
have been aware, by external means. Of the time
or place at which such operations were to take
place. The length of time during which he had
displaysd this morbid ssnibility had been .
prolonged that if he had really been praticing q
deception it could scarcely have failed to be dis
covered. In his conversation, and in all other
particulars except the one we have described,
Mr.. Sadler gave no evidence of anything except
the most perfect sanity. The case seems to be
well authenticated, and II the truth Of the de-
tails can be relied upon is altogether very re-
markable one. It resembles very nearly, in its
prominent features, the chsracteristics of the
called cases Of bewitohment which occurred in
the earlier history of New England. 1t is not
impossible that a recurrence of that physical af-
lection, for such il sndoubtsdly was, may again
recur, though it is quite impossible that its
treatment would be SO irrational in the present
age as in the past. There is moro we believe in
the nervous system Of mankind than has been
even dreamed of in our philosophy, and such
cases as the above carefully studied might be
useful in throwing light upon mysteries hitherto
unexplained and inexplicable.

improvements in steam NaviSa.

The London Spectator has the following.
Suppose it true, as many men of mark and
science believe, that the next great step may be
in sea going steamers that international commu-
nication may be accelerated as internal commu-
nication has been, that We may yet see New
York brought within two days journey of Liver
pool The probability is that in ten years every
social condition now existing in Europe would
have ceased to exist, that the millions who toll
for others, and on whose toll modern society is
built, would choose to toll for themselves would
precipitats themselves in rush, to which all
the movements of mankind have been triies, up-
on the new world. Suppese the population Of
Britain and Germany reduced to ten millions
each--a change less in magnitude than that
which has occurred in many ceuntries-and these
ten millions only retained by advantages as
great as the new world can offer, what would all
the changes of tho past half century be to that
This may happen, even without any application
of Stephenson's great idea-ths one idea he new
er worked out-that if engineers, instead of try.
ing to increase the power applicable to driving
| ships, were to reduce the friction which retards
ships, the world would speedily be one great
parish. This writer whs has seen many coun.
tries and lived among many races, seriously be-
lIeves that of all the dangers to which Europe
and European society are exposed none is 30 for
midable as the passion for emigration seriously
doubts whether, if education once spreads in
Europe, it will be possible to retain its popula-
tlon cooped up in their narrow and half ex haust-
ed corner of the world. We think. We English,
that we know what emigration Is but We know
nothing about it, have no idea of the changes it
would involve if aided by the whole fierce Of the
masses then in possession of the supreme politi-
cal power. Suppose those fve-sixths of the
Englishmen who now work fer others chose to
90 elsewhere and work for Themselves The
change between Waterloo and Sadowa would be
very slight compared with the change between
1868 and 1918, and there il not sensible man
| in England who will declare that alteration be-
yond the reach of thought Why should not
emigration in England and Germany attain the
height it has reached in Ireland, and the masses
insist on aiding it through the national fleets
The Irish would if they had the power, and the
British have this year the power conferred upon
them. We say nothing Of . discovery which, if
it is ever made, will remsld all human society,
| slowly pulverize all differences among nations
fusins the world into enc people, and Inmedl-
ately destroy all existing political arrangements
the discovery Of a means Of maintaining and
guiding raft ten feet or - in the air; for We
cannot resist totally unreasonable impression
that the discovery will be made; that progress
will not in our time make that astounding leap.
Apart altogether from that, there are physical
forces now Ut work strong enough to change the
whole face of tho world, BY shifting its popula.
