Hope for IDeberates.

We are glad to cronicle the fact that
temperance men are beginning to indicate
a change in their opinions and policy
with reference to the treatment OF ineb-
crates At the meeting Of the Tenn
perance Blessing" held at Concert Hall
on Saturday night, Judge Allison, pre-
siding, the report recommended the es
tablishmnnt of homes for the treatment
of intemperance as disease; and de-
nounced the common practice OF dealing
with drunkards as offenders and criminals.
We regard this as hopeful sign of the
times The principle that intemperance
is a disease, and should be treated in
ia5titatens provided for that purpose
vas recognized by cur Legislature in
$3.50, by granting charter to the Clti-
2ens association of Pennsylvania, for the
purpose of establishing Just such institu-
tions as the Blessing recommends.
The Sanatarlum, at Media, is the first
fruit of this effort. 1t was opened in
small way for the reception of ineberates
in June, 1867, since which time l04 have
inyoluntariiy placed themselves under It's
care. OF this number forty have return
ed to society, and are successfully engag-
ed in business. Twenty-seven have been
much improved nineteen have not been
heard from, and only eleven have proved
to be irreclaimable.
Let the people encourage this work by
their sympathy and means, and let the
state and city recognize it in similar
way, and an era will commence which
will be marked by this new philosophy.
and will deal with the drunkard in a
spirit of charity and good will, which is
essent al to his recovery.
Erring man cannot be restored by dis
gushing repreaches. Diseased men can
not be cured by law, or by force. The
Christian and humanizing methods which
have characterized the organization and
conduct of the Sanitarium at Media, and
marked it as success, must become the
popular means of reaching and restoring
a large class oflour citizens who are addicted
to alcholii and opium excess. Public cp-
piniou should not regard it as more dis
reputable for drunkard to go to an in
stitution to be cured Of this disorder,
than it is to go to the sea shore, springs
or mountains, for the cure Of scrofula,
rheunat 'sm, or dyspepsia. When our
civilization shall have advanced thus far,
and our Christianity becomes more thor
oughly practical aud less technical and
rigid, there viii be hope for much thor
ough reform.

Suicide of a German Actress.
[From the New Orleans Times, Dec. 19.l

From the NeW orleans dtheS, Dec. IL
Madame Anna Stein, a German actress
Of some repute, whose husband was
formerly the director of a German theatre
on Poydras street, died at II o clock Fri
day night, at the Touro Infrmary, from
the effects OF poison, which she had
taken herself. From what We can learn,
she many years years ago lived On init
mate terms with resident Of this city,
but has been separated from him for
some time Hearing that he had settled
in New Orleans and was doing well, she
returned from California with the des-
perate intention of renewing the acquain-
tance Her oyertures were not accepted,
and last evening shs went into Frederick
son 4 Hart's drug store to purchase
some arsenic. Suspeoting from her
manner that all was not right, the clerk
refused to sell, and we hear she subse-
quently forged the prescription Of a
physician to procure the drug.

Plants In Sleeping Rooms.

Though the air is dependent for the
renewal OF its oxygen on the action OF
the green leaves of plants, it must not
be forgotten that it is only in the pres
ence ana under the stimulus of light
that these organisms decompose carbonic
acid. All plants, irrespective of their
kind or nature. absorb oxygen and inhale
carbonic acid in the dark The quantity
of nOxious gas thus eliminated is, howev-
er, exceedingly small when compared
with the oxygen thrown out during the
day. When they are Towering, plants
exhale carbonic acid in considerable
quantity, and at the same time evolve
heat. In this condition, therefore, they
resemble animals as regards their relation
to the air; and number Of plants placed
in a room would under these circumstan-
cas-, tend to vivate the air.
While the phaneroeamia, or Towering
plants depend on the air almost entirely
for their supply of carbon, and are busy
during tile dayin restoring to it the oxygen
that has been removed by animals, many
of the inferior cryptogmania, as the fungi
and parasitic plants, obtain their nourlsh-
gient from material that has already been
organized. They do not absorb earbonic
acid, but on the contrary they act like an
imals, absorbing oxygen and inhaling
carbonic acid at all times. Its, therefore,
evident that their presence in room
cannot be productive of good results.
Aside from the highly deleterious action
that plants may exert on the atmosphere
ola sieeping-looln, by increasing the por-
portion Of carbonic acid during the night,
there is another and more important OBJ
lection to be urged against their pres
ncce in such apartments. Like animals,
they exhale peculiar volatile organic prln-
ciples, which in many instances render
the air unfit for purposes of respiration.
Even IN the days Of Adronicus this fact
was recognized, for he says, in speaking
Of Arabia Felix, that tby reason myrrh,
frankincense and hot spices there grow
ing, the air was so obnoxious to their
brains, that the very inhabitants at some
times cannot avoid its influences. "
What the influences on the brains OF the
may have been does not sc
present interest US we have only quoted
the statement to show that long ago the
emanations from plants were regarded as
having an influence on the condition Of
the air; and, in view OF our presentignor-
ance, it would be wise to Danish them
from our sleeping apartments, at least un-
til we are better informed regarding their
true properties Dr. j. e. Draper tn
