EATING THE "CoLLEcTION."-One eff
sect of the dearth of provisions in Paris
has been the closing Of q great many
useless mouths The beggers, mounte-
banks and many others who believed Paris
owed them living Stree gratis for moth
ing were removed from the gay capital
ere the seige commenced. Pet dogs have
been destroyed ON account of the amount
OF food they consumed. The question has
been debated whether or no it is wise to
continue feeding the valuable collection
OF animals in the Jardin des Plantes. The
meat they consume would keep hundreds
Of families /; had the collection better be
destroyed This question it appears is
quietly reaching very conclusive settle
mept. The horned cattle have been gradu-
ally disappearing from the grounds since
the commencement of the seige. Visitors
have missed the smaller birds and the
tame deer and hares and pheasants, and
at last accounts only few living eagles
were left, of the once large collection Of
the ieathered tribe. The two young
bears presented by Prince Couza have al
80 departed, to feast the stomach instead
Of the eye. 1t is fight between the "au-
,horities" and the collection" Hungry
keepers have foraged among the "Isre
specimens" until the specimens are "rarer'
that ever. Soon there will be nothing left
but few hungry lions, tough eagles, and
unconqueratle elephants, and the keep
ers having consumed them, will be the
embodiment Of the valuable geological
collection af the famous Jardin

deranged in their judgment on some one
topic or class OF topics, without such de-
cided oddity. They are simply so weak
ened or SO biased as to come always to ap
unreasonable conclusion, which others see
not to be warranted by the facts. This il
quite often the case in instances OF deep
and seemingly causeless depression on
| secular or on religious subjects.
It is also to be remembered that lnsan.
ity may operate on any part OF the mind.
1t may disturb the normal balance OF the
sensibility. and lead to undue elation or
undue depression. 1t may unsettle the
reason, so that the judgment does not
reach correct conclusions, but deems that
to be wise and right, which others know
to be foolish and wrong ORR may weaken
and unsettle the will, SO that it is unable
to hold to its decisions, and is governed by
mysterious impulses which urge the vic
tim to strange courses from which he still
feels degree Of revulsion. Thus in the
commission of suicide by insane persons,
the act may be from mere frenzy, or from
absurd reasoning, or from resistless i'm
pulse, sudden or permanent. In the lat
ter case the person might see the abstract
sin of the act, and yet be impotent to re-
frain from it.
Many do not understand that the liza
bility to suicide is often greatest in cases
of quiet arrangement, in which melan-
choly is the only symptom. A gentleman
recently told us of his daughter who was
thus depressed, whom he took TO an
asylum, when the physician astounded
him by the remark: "She has one Of
the most suicidal eyes I have ever SEEM"
He had not suspected that tendency, yet
in less than three weeks she made an
attempt to drown herself By reason of
this lack of knowledge of the peculiarities
of mental arrangement those affected are
often kept at home without proper treat
ment, till the case is incurable, or till they
do harm to themselves or to others. Even
skillful physicians of ordinary practice
will fail to understand the condition of
an insane person, and hence the wisdom
of consulting one who has had special ex-
perience in the treatment of such disease

ACCIDENT AT MoRIAH, N. Y.-Quite a
serions shooting accident occurred last
Sunday, at the village OF Mill Brook, in
the town of Moriah, N. Y. A young man
named William Dryer, attempted to
draw gun loaded with buckshot from
under the steps of the store of E. P. Han
dy, taking hold of the muzzle for that
purpose. The hammer caught discharg-
ing the gun, and the charge passed
through the right arm of Dryer, above
the elbow, and entered the side of the
head of another young man named VIM.
Capin. One shot passed through his nose
another entered and put out his eye, and
the remainder entered his skull. Capin
is in very critical condition. Dryers
arm is badly shattered and must probably
be amputated. Both men are reported to
be of steady habits, and much sympathy
is felt for them among the citizens of
Meriah.

NOTHING LIKE IT EVER BEFORE
PUBLIsHED.-The enterprising Publish
ers of our Schoolday Visitor, Philadelphia
have just issued something new in the
periodical and literary field, called the
Mathematical almanac and annual,
which is one of the most superb publica-
tions of the Annual kind that it has been
our pleasure to see. 1t contains Ga pagos,
profusely illustrated and beautifully
printed on cream tinted paper, while the
cover is a marvel of taste and skill, being
produced in four different oolors.
The contents are articles upon variety
of entertaining and popular subjects, and
those of a scientific or mathematical turn
of mind will fairly revel in its varied and
interesting problems, which are oontri-
buted by some of the most thorough
mathematicians and scholars in this coun-
try; while the smaller ones will find
whole winters enjoyment in it's puzzles,
pictorial REFUSES, etc. Every parent
should secure this Annual, for his child
and himself. The cost is but trifie, and
it will repay better than other gift. Send

Il is greatly to be desired that people
in general had better knowledge of the
facts relative to insanity. The ignorance
on this subject of even quite intelligent
persons is something surprising. The
consequence is serious. Those who are
mentally diseased are not suspected by
their friends to be so affected, or are not
cared for in a wise and helpful manner
Hence conduct is misunderstood and mis-
represented, harsh and false judgments
are expressed, and sad casualties often
occur.
1t is a common error that real insanity
has but two forms; that an insane person
either must be raving maniac, openly
striving to do harm TO himself and to
others, and needing to be put into strait
Jacket, or to be confined in a room by
himself, or else must be idiotic, and sunk
down into a mere animal. Hence, when
it is reported that any one is suffering
from mental alteration, if be is quiet and
composed. if he msnifests sense and judg.
ment, if he plant shrewdly and executes
skillfully, the idea, is repealed as absurd
From similar ignorance, no fear of vio-
lence to others or of self-injury is felt, be-
cause the person Is not excited and fran.
tic, but on the contrary is more than
usually inactive and depressed.

edge on this subject but only such an un-

lar and not in scientific form. Speaking
thus populsrly we would call attention to
the fact that the cases of frenzy and
idiocy are by no means the most common,
nor are always the most difficult to cure.
Indeed very violent case sometimes re-

all others. The pronounced cases of
this kind are called monomaniacs, and
often exhibit sudden and marvellous

The Rift BeIyyeen the Hills.
BY ALICE N. wHIcHERs

BY ALICE n. wHicHERs
How lovely the hills ! each outline dim
Revealed by the setting sun
That gilds their peaks with refulgent gold
When the day is nearly done;
Majeotic and grand my beating heart
With q sense of beauty thrills,
But the Pickering light is more beautiful far
In the rift between the hills.
Brightly they glow in the morning light'
And their leafy coroual
Flashes back from its dewy gems
The bright sun-rays that fall;
But they burn and glow in the fierce noon-tide,
While dreamy stiffness fills
The shadows that lie 30 cool and deep
In the rift between the hills.
More beautiful still are the hills at eve
With silvery radiance crowned,
And the bright green tip of each feathery pine
wooes the breeze in murmuring sound.
But the light steals softly thro' arches dim
Far down from the SUBMITS CLEAN
And lovelier far to my watchful eyes
Seems its trembling uncertain beams.
The hills are beautiful well know,
And I'd love their SUBMITS bold
Did they not seem to shut me in,
SO firm, 80 cruel, SO cold.
But love will soar DER the towering peaks,
Whose sense OF confinement chills;
The soul may see the light of its home
Thro' the rift between the hills

AN ABSOLUTE bAfEGUARD-
Invalids, broken down in health and spirits by
Chronic Dyspepsia, or suffering from the terrible
exhaustion which follows the attacks of acute
disease. the testimony of thousands who have
been raised as by miracle from similar state
OF pros'ration by Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, is
a sure guarantee that by the same means you
too may be strengthened and restored. But to
those who stand In peril of epidemics, to all who
by reason of exposure, privations and uncongeni-
al climate or unhealthy pursuits, may at any mo-
ment be stricken down, this paragraph is partic-
ularly and emphatically addressed. You, who
are thus situated, are proffered an absolute safe
guard against the danger that menaces you.
Tone and regulate the system with this harmless
medicinal stimulant and Alternative, and you will
be forearmed against the maladies whose seeds
float around you in the air unseen. Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters are not only standard tonic
and Alternative throughout the United States, but
they are accredited by the certificates of the NEST
distinguished citizens of the Union, to the people
of all other lands. In Canada, Australia and
the West Indies, they are gradually taking the
place OF all other stomachics, whether native or
foreign, and surely as truth is progressive and
demonstration overthrows doubt, they will even
tually supercede every other invigorant and res
toratlve now employed in medicinal practice.
