Insanity.

Ii has been ascertained. II is at least
maintained BIZ those who have given
special atte ntiou To the subject, that the
number Of Insane has rapidly increased
Of late years, being now much larger in
proportion to the population Of the eoun-
try tn IN ever before. The same is said
20 hold true of Great Britain. For the
past twenty years the average increase
in England has been about one thousand,
and it gives no Indication of a tendency
to pause. bat holds on from year to year
with remarkable Stead.ness. \ steady
though slower rate Of Increase has taken
place in Scotland In ireland, too, there
has been the same progressive influence,
showing a difference Of I.IS4 between
the number al lauatics IN asylum on the
first Of January, 1851. and the Num-
her 50 provided for OF the first of Janus
arv. ls6N And what Is true of the
United States All Great Britain is true
To a greater or less extent of all the
countries %: EaFope, regarding which
we have trustworthy information In
France. for instance, there was al aver
aye yearly increase of 100 for the twenty
six wears lre l'6l, that is, difer>
ence between II $50 and 30239
These facts show that the subject of
insanity ahnndsu,ly deserved the es-
pecial attention it received at the hand
of our Generl Assembly last winter,
and must hereafter receive greater at
tention from the medical profession and
from legislatoys- C-ieage Journal.

The SPRsGUE-ABBorT AFFAIR The
Chicago Post takes off the late infantile
war between Senator's Sprague, Of Rhode
Island, and Abbott, of North Carolina,
in the following facetious style:
We are glad to be relieved of any
further details concerning the Sprague>
Abbott war, the daily history of which
for week past may be summed up th US.
First, we have the valiant Sprague
grandly marching up Pennsylvania ave.
nue., pride in his port, defiance in his
eye, his coat tail. horizontally floating
in the breeze till you could play check
ers on them, Indignantly searching for
Abbott-and "a drink-in every hotel and
every saloon from tire Capitol to Ham
m0cks, and beyond He has no sooner
been caught sight of by his terrified and
fearful friends, and put to bed out of
harm way, when forth issues Abbott,
bristiing all over with wrath, and arms
as thick under his coat as quilts upon
the fretiul porcupine, And then down
he goes on his indignant march III pur-
suit of Sprague, and-drinks, maxi z
the welkin ring with the clamor and
the clangor" of his martial progress
Finding more drinks than Sprague, he,
too, is finally caught by his chivalri
friends, and at last got to bed BY this
time Sprague has got over his snooze,
and breaking away from family and
friends, and bed>clothes, forth he march
es after his sleeping antagonist. After
he gets through, then Abbott comes on
the stage again. 20 monstrous = ex.
claimed Prince Hal; "but one half PEN
ny-worth of bread to this intolerable
deal of sack" There has been great
deal more of coffee than of pistols in
this Senatorial war. The supreme ridic~
ulousness OF the whole thing is en- ough
to make ! dog laugh.

AT Galena, on Saturday last six little
boys, two named Davis, two Jones, and
two Biel, all under II years of age, were
poisoned by eating wild persneps. One
of the boys, named Davis, who had eaten
more than the others, became dizzy, and
fell into the river, but was rescued from
drowning by some men at work near by
When brought out of the water he went
into commissions and died in about half
an hour, none but his companions know
ing that he had eaten the parsneps-

Omtial Appointments.

The Chicago Tribune is probably
more than any other paper in the
country given to fault finding. In
4 deed, it could Scsrcel- survive if
compelled TO pass over a single week
withou: censurc towards some one.
In It's Issue Of the 10Th ult. is an ar
ticle rpon the Administration of
General Grant, IL which the Presi-
dent and his entire cabinet are rep
resented as entirely destitute OF
sta.eemanship. and incapacitated for
the positions they occupy. This
i ribune article is seized upon by ev-
cry Democratic paper from Maine to
Texas, and heralded forth az the true
condition of the Administration. and
scarcely a.post-house politician of the
Democratic persuasion can be met IN
the streets who has not become a
ready to reiterate its crumblings.-
Those who hay been constant readers
OF the TriJsne for years past are not
at all surprised at its present course,
and look upon its Seedlings in the
same light they would upon Mrs
Caudle's lectures as published in
some pictorial periodical Some
friend of the Tribune has evidently
been snubbed by the President in
his application for Office, and that is
the secret of its grumblings
As l. always the case when new
administration comes into power,
there are many more applicants for
Office than can be aecommoia ted
and some Of course must be disap-
pointed. Ii those hay ing the power
TO fill the various official positions in
the gift Of the administration were
personally acquainted with every APP.
plicant, they might be held response
bic for the capacity of appontees.
and we presume fewer Offices would
be improperly filled. But not enjoy
ing such privilege, reliance is placed
upon the members Of Congress from
the districts to be supplied by the
appointing power. Congressman are
supposed TO know better than any
others the wishes Of his constituents
and capacity of applicants for Office
from their district, and in nine cases in
ten are unquestionably responsible
tor the appointments therein made.
In some cases those honorable gentle
men undoubtedly secure the appoint
ment of persons to Office who would
fall far short Of such honors if the
people interested had control of the
matter. Mr.. A, b. a man of some
influence in the community has
friend he wishes appointed to lu-
crative position and makes his wishes
NHowh to the Representative of his
DIS rict, who to retain the favor and
influence of A. b. recommends, and
secures the appointment OF person
perhaps personally obnoxious to the
people, and who could not be elected
to town or county Office if left
alone to a vote of his own party
And yet ali such appointments are
chargeahle upon the administration
and work for it no good. We believe
those really responsible should be
held to an account for their stew
ardshlp as much in securing official
patronage as in the discharge of
other duties belonging to their posi-
hon as servants of the people
" hen that Is done il viii be found
that in many cases the fault lies
nearer home than in the appointing
power at Washington

Ir seems that Senator Abbotts threat
of satisfaction, was not launched for
the first time against Sprague. The
Concord (N. Fl Patriot relates that one
of its proprietors received. last summer,
a note from the fre-eating carpet>bag-
ger, demanding retraction of several
statements, or redress" The Patriot
declined the former, and Abbott has new.
er Ipee. el abe ut the latter since.
