ell of the artist which might surpass
those of Hogartll or Hoibein, so ffightful
is the demoniae appearanceof man when
tht. victim of his passions, and overcome
with awful dread at the horid shapes
which his diseased brain has pictured.
rhe visitor to such a ward, when il is
we'll filled, would almost imagine that
he had entered one OF the portals of the
regions of the lost. 90 fd,l sas.
Zone poor victim lies muttering to
himself, and constantly picking his bed
clothes, now and then rising up and
fixedly staring, with horror delineated
in every feature, on some faneied dea-
mon emerging from crevice or corner.
Another is hurting back, with awful
blasphemy, the taunts and jeers with
which his imaginary enemy is torment
ing him, while in the grated room off
the main ward, reserved for the most
violent cases, a poor fellow is rushing
madly about, fighting mortal combat
with what seems to him q real enemy
The straight Jacket and well padded
walls, however, protect him from doing
himself any harm, while the strong
men chosen as nurses for these patients
cow them down with a steady look, and
preserve a Satanic order in this pande-
monium. Occasionally, however, a suf-
ferer from the effects of strong drink,
instead of fearful shapes and imagina-
tion, sees gentle spirits and dreams de-
llghtful dreams.
"a smile is constantly playing on
such lips, and he. seems like child

poor artist who had often suffered from
deliriatDa trenae7as, who told me that in
his ours of insanity he saw images that
Raphael or Angelo might have traced

execute in his sober hours, and yet the
period of fenorse andSintense physical
suffering came to him all the same.

in the hospital more than dozen times;

the cotton crop will be $4,000 bales in

How Democracy r Reme m bers the Soldiers
In 1868, when Chambersburg was
smoking and the decisive lines were
drawing around Gettysburg, the Demo
cratic party of Pennsylvania were in
council at Harrisburg. Many of the
very men in session last month We're
there, and, under the very bayonets of
the Confederate army they remembered
the Union soldiersby advising compro-

the nation was in the balance. Sherman

march to the sea. Thomas was battling
Cling IN Che Wilfefness amid tlsegravss
and defeats of successive campaigns
The Democracy met and remembered
the soldiers-How? They explicitly
declared the war after three years of
trial TO be "a failure" and demanded
that iDpne6iote efforts be, made for a
cessation of hostiiities. Every plank,
too, of this Infamous platform, with one
exception, was a stab at the Admins
tration which was keeping the soldiers
in the field. Is it any wonder that this

In 1865, when the war was just over,
and the soldiers of Pennsylvania were
coming home, tired and wounded, with
their dead behind them, their business
and occupations gone, to- commence,
perhaps, yet more desperate struggle
for livelihood, how were they welcomed
by the Democracy of Pennsylvania? In
convention assembled, under the leade-
ship of Judge Black { still an honored
name in his party, the Democracy of
the State deliberately and officially de-
clared the history of the war to have
been "debt slaughter and disgrace -
That was only the Democratic remem
