Anninst the Amendment:

NEw-JERsEY, MARYLAND. CALFoRNA
DEIAwARg KENTUCKY. ORECoS-6
so that, even though New-York and Indiana
should both be counted in the minority the
Amendment would still be ratified beyond
cavil or contingency
We rejoice to see that Universal Amnesty IS
not destined to lag behind. The delegations
from Virginia, Mississippi, and Texas, enter
Congress virtually if not literally instructed to
urge its adoption. West Virginia, Missouri,
and Kansas, arc moving toward it in their
respective Legislatures. If it shall be needed,
there will be great public meetings held to
promote it in every part Of the country. But
we trust no popular agitation will be required.
Congress must be aware Of the strong and grow
ing sentiment which everywhere calls for there
moyal of all political disabilities and prescriptions
founded on our late cOnyulsiOn, and will re-
spond to the call Let us celebrate the next
anniversary of our National independence a
reunited and completely free peoplc-no mas
ter, and no slave-nO degraded caste, and no
disfranchised and sullen minority whose rights
have been forfeited for rebellion. Let us hold
out the hand of reconciliation and cntreat those
who were misled into Rebellion to share with
MS in full measure the rights vindicated in our
Union triumph not for party or class, but
for our country and for all mankind

From the Hearth and Homo.

From the Hearth and Homo.
Death from heart disease is of alarming
frequency. Almost daily we hear that
friends, or acquaintances, or public men,
have suddenly died, and, on inquiry, it is
found that the heart was at fault. This fact
has frequently given rise to the remark that
it is strange the heart should SO often be
the seat OF mortal disease.
But the truth is, we attach far too little
Importance to this organ and its functions.
1t performs its great Office so quietly and SO
uninterrup,edly that we even forget its ex-
istence. From period anterior to birth
until death, during sleeping as well as wa
king hours, ceaselessly and noiselessly, with
steady and measured rhythm. it circulates
the vital fluids through every tissue Of the
body. Seventy FIVE times il pulsates in n
minute, or los, 900 times in day, without
exhaustion or apparent need of repose.
The heart is hollow, muscular organ,
weighing about ten ounces, and is suspend
ed in the cavity of the chest by delicate lig
aments. And yet il performs, quietly and
noiselessly, and with but the slightest jar,
an incredible amount of labor. In twenty
four hours it is estimated that the heart ac-
complishes more than three times as much
work as common laborer in ten hours.
"Three old women sitting by the fire," says
recent scientific writer, alternately spin
ming and sleeping, do more by the constant
beating of their hearts than can be done in
day by the youngest and strongest labor.
err He adds: mo labor that we can
undertake is regarded as more severe than
that of the muscles employed during boat
race and yet this labor, severe as it is, is
only three fourths of that exerted day and
night, during life, by each of our hearts,
If the entire force of the heart were expend.
ed in lifting its own weight vertically, it
would be raised 1874 feet in one hour.

4 Hard story.

A Philadelphia paper says: There is a
doctor in the northwestern part of this con
solidated city who is especially remarkable
for being, as the women term il, ''Shor, and
crusty.i
a week or two since be vas called to visit
patient who was laboring under severe
attack Of poor whiskey.
swell. doctor, I'm down. you see-com-
pletely hoored. I've got the tremendous
delirium, you know"
"Tremens, you fool! Where'i you ge,
your rum
"All over in spots; broke out promiscu-
ouslv, doctor.'
'Served you right
"Father died of the same disease; it took
him under the short ribs and carried him
off bodily"
swell, you've got to take something i'm
mediately."
"You're trump, Doc. Here wife, I'll
take sip of old rye
"Lie still, you blockhead! Mrs. B., if
your husband should get worse before | re-
turn. which will be in an hour, give him
dose of that trunk strap; may be that will
bring fiA to serse OF hls folly"
The doctor sailed out grandly and within
an hour sailed in again, and found his
friend OF the tremendous delrium'' in a
terrible CONDITION. wriihing and struggling
with pain. His wife. a female OF the kind
but ignorant school, came up, and laying
her hands on the doctors arm, said:
doctor, gave him the strap, as you
directed"
"Dd you thrash him well?''
"Tnrash him" excl lined the astonished
woman. "no. | cnl the strap INTO hash and
made him swallow i'll"
"Oh. Lord. doctor!' roared the victim
IL swallowed the leather but but"
"But-what?'
IL swallowed the whole stran but I'm
darned il | could 90 the buckle.
The doctor administered two bread pills
and departed.

Less F0OD.

Less food means temperance. Precisely
this; nc,hing more nor less. 1t doesn't
mean the Temperance reform. 1t means
simply the avoidance Of excess. 1t is the
exc ess, or the little too mt ch that hurts. 1t
is the feather that breaks the camel's b,ck.
And is it then so hs d that this lille capt
be avoided? Yes, that is it; we must have
little more there is little more room in
the ove.crowded stomach. And what is the
rnsequence? Simply little uneasy feel.
ing. Sometimes this is all but not always
1t is, however, always hurt, that will be
felt by and By, and more and more as the
individual persists. Bnt even for the pres
ent, with many men. il is bad thing. A
person will feel stupid; he will have the
blues, because the stomach, through the
nervous influence, affects the whole systc n,
