Hon. Reverdy Johnson has spoken
in no indecisive terms upon the pres
ent political situation. His long let
ter, in reply to Hon. James Brooks,
forms ono ofthe ablest reviews of the
iniquity Of the existing Administra-
lion, and one Of the most torcible pre-
entations Of Mr.. Greeley's claims,
that has been offered. The errors
and the crimes Of which President
Grant has been guilty in the matter
Of appointments to high offices, lobby
ing in Congress, usurping the warpow-
II and prostituting the Federal patron
age, are set forth as powerfully as in
the celebrated Grafton of Senator
sumner; while too there is added his
disregard Of public interests in order
ing off his Cabinet to stump the States
and his reckless use of the military,
in compelling free people to his will.
With regard to Mr. Greeley, he offers
Il contrast remarkable in every point.
His patriotism, his ability and his
honesty are too well known to be
doubted; and his recent letter of accep-
lance, no less than his record in the
past, pledges him to wise, economi-
cal and thoroughly national policy in
which alone the country can find pres
ent relief Mr. Johnson urges, as the
only means Of allaying the reasonable
anxiety of the nation, the election Of
MIR Greeley, man "whose entire life
has exhibited his generous qualities,
MS great ability, his brave patriotism
and his unsupported integrity. Bos-
ton Post.

LITTLE MARY.
Little Mary has gone with the angels, home to
their dwellings of light;
The JOY of the household has vanished, there
Is sorrow by day and by night
The mother like Rachel is weeping, the father
is sorrOwtul now,
And the shadow of mourning Is resting on
children and grandparents brow
How swectly the form in the casllet was deck.
ed with the beautiful flowers
We can scarcely imagine that brighter unfold
in the Heavenly bowers,
Or the robes of its spirit more stainless than
Death has taken the pet of the household
twas too fragile to brave liie's storm.
Round the pale lips sweet smile fingered,
scarcely eclipsed in death;
As we looked, we half strove TO fancy the
throb other feeble breath.
But she's taken, from sorrow and SHINING, I'M
to u home most bright
Cared for by glorious angels, in world of
which God Is the light
And we know il is well with our darling, for
Christ said Come unto me
Little children, for, lol of such must the king
dom of Heaven be-"
In his arms he will take her and bless her, as
he did the children of old
There Is comfort in feeling she's resting so
safe in the heavenly fold.
We have lead and loved our darling, she will
lead and love US now,
She will come rs sinless angel, with halo |
around her brow,
And her holy intercession, for US, to the Father
will rise,
TIL we clasp her again to our bosons. In the |
regions beyond the skies.

ne was suffering from Inflammation OF the menu
branes and cauticle substances Of the brain. I
believed that tho morbid process involved al
most entirely thosd parts Of the brain which
was no paralysis discernible, and lis articula-
| ton WAS very distinct From these two facts
| I judged that the motor tract, which ia at the
base OF the brain, vas not involved"
Reporter-7"D Dr. Brown-sequard says that both
| the base ind top Of the brain we're affected"
DR.. Hammond Dr.. eequard is wrong. Had
the base been affected, h1r. Greeley would have
been paralyzed wholly or in part"
Reporter,1"That is the very point upon which
DIR. Sequard bases his theory. He said one sido
Of N1r. Greeley WAS para1yzed."
Or. Hammond-"H He is in error: When saw
Mr. Greeley, there WAS no paralysis to be discoy-
cred. What may hare taken place next day, be-
fore he died, I cannot say; but on Thursday
there was nothing to justify the theory that the
base OF the brain was affected in the least. AsI
said before, If q post nsortens had been effected,
We should know with much mora certainty tho
precise nature of the disease. As it is, I have
described what believe to be the true cause Of
DEATH"
Reporter-s Can you give me an idea now Of
the method Of treatment adopted 2"
DR.. Hammond. .-"Only 80 far as my own sug-
gestions were followed. I sew at once that Mr.
Greeley must die. There WIS absolutely no.
that he could not live more than forty eight
hours, aud as the event proved he died within

long vitality as long IS possible, for knew that
no earthly physician could do more. With this
view I recommended to DR.. Choate that he
should administer concentrated nutritious food
and atimulants. I believe that it was great
mistake that stimnlants were not given him
before before: Acting AtI upon my advice. Dr.. choate
this we're stirred two glasses of sherry
wine, and Mr: Greeley was given this before
went away. He Immediately went into q calm,
quiet sleep, and was 80 sleeping when saw him
last. I did not think any medicine other than
this would help him in the least. And now, sir,
that is all I know Of tho case"
Reporter" Doctor, would like to have your
view Of the causes which led to n1r. Greeleys
disease"
DR.. Hammond Certainly. The disease was
caused by intense mental excitement and e1er-
ton. he overworked his brain. It is not an
extraordinary case to us physicians: We see
f1a faoh fhses t every dys and thsy 9snal spn
and his herculean work during the campaign
both contributed to bring about the sud result.
That is general explanation; and the only one
am prepared to give"
