THE PRICE OF 1NTBmPhRANoEs

Did you ever awake in the night in
great terror over some dream Some
fearful danger was just before you, and
you cried out in fear, Mother, MOtherl
Though there was nothing near to hurt
you, yet your terror was just as real as
though a lion was in the room.
Now, the imaginary terrors of a man IN
delirium which drinking causes may
seem very funny to lOokers-on, who
know there IS no danger; but they are
terrible beyond all thought to those who
experience them.
A man living in New Haven Connect
cut, drank so deeply that his reason was
for a time OverthrOwn. When his par
oxysms came on, he fancied that he saw
before him men preparing to fay him
alive. Slowly they began their dreadful
work, cutting his flesh with keen little
saws, then tearing off his skin in strings,
and hanging it upon wires before his
eyes. He would Shrek and cry out in
as terrible agony as if they were really
doing 1t. Then he would imagine that
his heart was a cage of wild beasts, who
were tearing, growing, and fighting with
each other. He would beg his COmpan-
ions to tear them out, and when, TO graf
ify him, they would pretend to do so,
a feeling Of deathly fainness would come
over him. Then he would think those
about him were throwing sharp hooks at
him, trying to fasten them in his flesh
He would wrestle and fight for hours
with his unseen foes, until the sweat
poured from him in streams.
Did he not pay dear for his cups ?-
Was the little pleasure he got out Of
them worth all that agony

CLARA LOUISE KELLOGG SINGS IN
A LUNATIC ASYLUM
From the N. Y. Evening Post.l

~ l.
We do not remember to have heard
of a more interesting episode in the life
of any artist since the days of the great
Jenny Lind, than that of Miss Kellogg
at the Utica Asylum, on the occasion Of
her concert in that city few days. since.
The circumstance speaks volumes for
the kindness of heart and genuine hui
manity of this great artist.
Not content, as some of the genius E11-
rzha6Ae would have been, to dole out a
few notes to better classes of patients
that could be assembled for the purpose,
she asked the Doctor to be allowed to
penetrate to the interior and sing for the
most disturbed.
Accompanied by two of the faculty,
their ladies and the matron, and armed
only with her light guitar" she started,
like an ancient troubadour, on her novel
Journey Arrived in one of the depart
ments devoted to the most noisy, destruc-
tive and disturbed of this unfortunate
class, she was not long in making her
power felt. A few notes from her Won
derful voice were sufficient to call order
out of the widest confusion and still the
troubled waters of the soul in moment
all was hushed. and except the voice of
the Cantatrice, the hall was silent as the
house of death.
After the first song they gathered
about her like children, wondering, ap-
parently, what angel from heaven had
dropped down so suddenly and unex-
pectedly among them. They examined
her minutely, and literally from the
crown of her head to the sole of her
foot, for one desired to see and exam
inc the pretty little boot with which she
beat time to her music" This was al
lowed with most inimitable grace; and
not only this, but every article of dress
and jewelry about her person she suffer-
ed to be freely Overhauled and examined
minutely by these poor crazy ladies. She
was turned about from side to side like a
merchants lay figure, much to her
amusement, apparently, and little to her
annoyance.
But the most trying ordeal was vet to
come. Several in the exuberance OF
their delight came forward and desired
to kiss her themselves not with fear,
but genuine emotion, she not only re-
ceived the greeting, but returned it in
kind in each instance. Such is Clara
Louisa Kellogg, such someof the charac--
teristics of her genius such the power OF
music and kindness over the disturbed
mind,

WINE vs.. CANNON.

Wendell Phillips, in an address in the
Music Hall in Boston, once said, 81
know soldier in the army ofthe Potomac
who was picked up in the streets of
Philadelphia one year ago a complete
wreck and confirmed inebriate, but who
was, by the love of Sister of Charity of
a Boston home, placed once more on his
feet. He was at Balls Bluff, and three
times with unloaded musllet charged up-
on the enemy. He was one of the six
who heroically defended and brought
away the body Of the fallen leader OF
that bloody fight The captain Of the
company to which he belonged died in
his arms, receiving the last words OF
consolation from his lips.
"He was afterward conspicuous IN the
conflict, until the orders were given Tor
each one to seek his own safety. Ke--
moving some of his apparel he plunged
into the inhospitable river, and after great
exertion landed on the opposite bank,
seven miles below the encampment.
Nearly exhausted, half clad, half starved,
he finally reached the camp. The cap
tain of the next company 70 which he
belonged kindly said to him; pouring
out a glass of wine, Let me give you
this you will perish without it. i thank
you, sir, said the soldier, but / would
sooner face all the cannon of the enemy
than that glass Of wine"

A VOICE OUT OF THE PAST.
[From the n. Y. Post-Freo Trade.I

FROM LLe n. Y EOSL-trGe trade
The Democrats of Ohio have made
and adopted platform. Like the poor
wretch who sat in the mud on a street
corner in San Diego, according to John
Phoenix, and bewailed his hard fate in
having thoughtlessly voted for Governor
Bigler, it has been and gone and done
it. If anybody expected a clear deClara-
ton of sound principles from the Demo
cratic leaders he is once more doomed
TO disappointment.
The Ohio Democratic platform. which
we print in full elsewhere, very properly
denounces the present tariff; but adds
that in the Encouragement of the tariff
''all the necessaries of life should be alb
solutely free of duty, which would put
tea, coffee and sugar on the free list, to
the great delight Of Kelley and all the
protectionists, who hardly expected to
find their strongest allies among the
Democrats.
Next, the internal revenue system is
denounced, though it is, by universal
admission, at present admirably arrang-
cd and these Ohio democrats demand
the abolition of the stamp tax, one Of the
easiest to collect, least burdensomc and
most approved sources Of revenue and
of the income tax, which IS paid by
about 27o, 900 people, out of our 10000
900 of population. Moreover, the Ohio
democrats pledge themselves to a tre-
mendous change in our systemic
cause the federal revenue to be collected
by state and county officers.
Finally, they denounce ''the profiigacy
and corruption of the present admins
tration," which is certainly the most
economical and pure we have had for the
last twenty-years they promise the re-
peal Of the laws enforcing the Fifteenth
Amendment; they demand that the
bonds of the United States shall be taxed
though this has never been done since
the beginning of the government they
promise the substitution of Treasury
notes or greenbacks for national bank
notes, and thus would make the federal
treasury huge national bank; and they
say not word about specie payments.
As to revenue, these Democrats
would strike off all our surplus, or near
" hundred millions at one blow, by
abolishing stamps, the income tax. and
the duties on tea, coffee, sugar and mo-
lasses. Thus they would make It nearly
impossible to effect any such general re-
duction of the tariff as is needed 70 re-
heve industry and restore the country to
prosperity. AS to taxing the
bonds, that question has been decided ;
and what would Andrew Jackson say to
a proposition. by Democrats. to make
the federal treasury great na''o'l'''

COMMON PRETENsEs.

Ralph Waldo Emerson, in his new
volume5 entitled Society and Solitude" &"
thus strongly expresses himself: 81 hate
this shallow Americanism which hopes
to get rich by credit, get knowledge by
raps on midnight tables, to learn the
economy of the mind by phrenology, or
skill without study, or mastery without
apprenticeship, or the sale Of goods
through pretending that they sell, or
power through making believe you are
powerful, OF through a packed jury or
caucus, bribery and repeating votes,
or wealth by fraud They think they
have got it, but they have got something
else--a crime which calls for another
crime, and another devil behind that :;
these are steps to suicide, infamy and
the harming Of mankind. We counten-
anee each other in this life of show, puff
ing, advertisement, and manufacture Of
public opinion and excellence is lost
sight of in the hunger for sudden perform
anCe and praise.

The dome of the Capitol at Washing
ton Is one of the largest in the world, be-
ing I37 feet in diameter at ITS pase ana
zoe feet high. The architect, Mr.. Wal
Ter. naturally thought so large a mass of
iron would be affected by the suns rays,
SO that the expansion would be unequal,
according as the sun shone on one or
the other side. To ascertain the extent
of the expansion, he extended a wire
within the dome from the top to the bot
tom and connected with it by delicate
mechanism a pencil, which would draw
on a paper the line Of movement. He
expected quite a regular curve as the
opposite sides Of the dome were affected
by the daily passage Of the sun. But he
found that It is not the sun, but the wind
that has most effect. The -AVie5JcaG
journal Of Science contains a copy OF
the figure drawn one windy day. show
ing all the changes and lulls Of the

platform speaks of the same spirit
which swept the alien and sedition laws

The Commercial correspondent shows
