Spices mostly act as stimulants to the
coats Of the stomach, on account of the
essential oil which they contain, and they
form an important class in the list of use
iul medicines, Used in excess, they are
apt to heat the blood, and excite the ap.
petites and passions TO a morbid degree,
and therefore they should be administered
to children and younger persons with great
caution. Cinnamon and cassia, both men,
bers at the same family of plants, seem to
have special tendency to the urinary or
gnns, and the writer has known cases Of
violent inflammation of the kidneys and
bladder caused by imprudently eating a
quantity of cassia buds.
Allspice, in small quantities, is a very
powerful adjunct to medicines for the cure
Of dyspepsia, fatulence. etc., and the es-
scntial oil, as well as that of cloves, etc.,
is often used to allay toothachc.
Ginger is also used as stimulant in food
aud as remedy against colds, colics and
vomiting, and has been found to be an ex-
client antidoto against sea sickness.
Black pepper is sometimes employed
with good success as cure for nausea,
dyspepsia, certain forms of gcut, or as a
stimulant in paralysis. In India it is much
used as remedy for vomiting in cholera
morbus, and in some localities, when mixed
with spirit and water, it is popul.r pre-
, ventative against the return of parox.

Children.

The british practice ofpunishing chill.
dren by whipping is rapidly becoming dis
countenanced among the most noble, ref.
ned and intellectual. Progress is raking
thoroughly among the corroding roots. or
the evil, unwholesome practice of all an
ciens customs. and gradually equaliziDg
the rights of men, women and children.
Children in former times we're taught to
be seen but not heard; therefore many q
gem Of thought at manhood has been sup
pressed merely from lack of sufficient
dignity and confidence, resulting from
narrow restriction in the early training of
its originator. When will tyranny cease
and people be willing to do unto others
as they would have others do unto them 2
Children have rights aud they should be
respected and well guarded that they be
not trampcd upon by those in power. If
all would manifest as much love for gov
erning themselves as they do for showing
their power and authority in governing
others, we should have far better State
government than presently exists. IF pa
rents firstly would govern themselves,
quench their anger and administer cor.
rection when only in cool passive condi-
ton, they seldom would resort to the
heathenish, wicked, injurious methods Of
severe applications Of the rod. How
many children are exposed to the cruel
freaks OF drinking parent The govern
ment administration by wrathful igno-
rant mother; the heart-rending abuse of
a low, demoralized, beastly father. Why
wonder that children grow up flooded
with evil purposes and degrading passions
almost unquenchable? lfparents would
only more tenderly handle and judiciously
treat their children, the penitentiary
: would be less thropged and houses of cor.
re ction less crowded. Children should
be educated to MAINTAIN confidence, allow,
ed to readily impart with courage and
bravery their perplevities and ideas, and,
$ instead OF hushing up their out-burst of
: mirth and glee, we should manifest ap ia-
tense interest in their sayings, and they
: will become familiar with us, and will
grow up frank and truthful. We should
: teach them TO think, speak and act more
: for themselves. then then they win natur-
0 ally and rapidly expand into free origin
al thinkers, and fluent speakers, and, re-
ceivc, as the Deity Intended, healthy
natural development.

Oh, shall go to the bad

Ruin in prospect, stark mad.
Dragged from the work that's my living,

While my anxieties tear me,

Counsel will vainly harangue me,
Witness depose all in vain,
Judges charge-though he could hang me-
Naught of my mind will obtain.
As for al criminal cases,
shall the prisoner acquit,
Likea deaf mans while my place is;
Give him the doubts benefit.
And in all civil, as hearing
Not either side what they say,

Nearest for me the right way.

Freed from life's personal cares.

THE SENATORIAL ELECTION IN CONNECTICUT
The result of the Connecticut senatorial cleo
ton, and the means by which it was accom-
plished, are very generally discussed in political
circles, and in not altogether complimentary
tones. Senator Ferrys friends, however, in
Guiding his colleague in the Senate, deny most
decidedly that he has been party to any bargain
or understanding with any of his supporters
outside the Republican party and even Cover
nor Hawley's advocates say that Ferry's cleo
ton is simply the result of the personal prefer
ence of the Republicans in the legislature, and
has no important political significance. 1t is
remarked, however, that the first to cOngratu-
late Senator Ferry on his reelection was Sena-
tor Schurz, after whom followed Trumbull,
Fenton, Sumner and the Democrats. Among
the incidents of the election was a forged resig-
nation from Postmaster Sperry of New Haven,
which was received by the President and the
Postmaster-General by telegraph this morning

temporary chairman of the recent Liberal Re-

the following statement: "And so, gentlemen
in every department of the government the

slow, seems to have pervaded the whole civil
and political administration of the country from
the head to the FOOT A personal friend of
Gen. Matthews, connected with one of the de-
partments in Washington, after reading his
speech wrote letter to the general calling his
attention to the above statement, aud express
ing the hope that when he should come to look
calmly at the statement he would regret he ever
made it. This brought from Gen. Matthews
the following answer, which is now made pub
lie, with his permission:
CINCINNATI, May 6, 1872.
My Dear Ssr:-Nothing connected with the
recent disgraced and disgraceful convention at
this place has given me so much pain as your
note calling my attention to statement taken
from speech of mine, pointed with the inter-
probation you evidently put upon it. Allow me,
in the first place, to say that was put forward
as temporary chairman of that convention with
out an hours notice. and that consequently
what said was totally unprecedented; and,
IN tne next place. tnaG the extract winch you
make, and which, if L had intended it to be
taken in its literal sense, would have been just
ly matter of regret that it had been uttered,
does not represent the truth of my sentiments.
On the contrary, l have no reason to believe,
and never have believed, that personally the
present administration was guilty of corrupt
or improper motives, and ought to have so ex-
pressed myself SO as to have avoided any such
charge. What was striving to say had refer
ence to the general corruption of our public po-
litical life, pervading it in every department,
whereby personal and party ends seem to be
substituted for the public good, and the latest
and best illustration of which 1 am free to say
is now to be found in the very action of the
convention in the presence of which this dec
laration was made I am greatly ehagrined at
the whole matter, my own participation in it
included, and have concluded, perhaps not suf-
ficiently soon, that as politician and President
maker am not a success. I greatly regret
that l have given cause of offence to you and
to many other personal friends whose integrity
may have seemed to have questioned, but
which can assure you was fartherest from my
thought. hope you will be able to regard it
as though it had never been said. r'9s7a

THIS is dreadful; this is Portland is los
ing the country trade because the country
merchants can't get their accustomed bever-
age to assuage a six months drouth. Hence
they give Portland the go-by and HE to Bos-
ton where whiskey punches, cocktails. recon-
structors, and Tom-and- Jerrys flow like rivers
of milk and honey to give joy to marched
shriveled souls. 1t matters not if thew oon
purchase six months stock better in port
land than Boston-not a bit. These staid
country merchants when they go to purchase
goods make that object an entirely secondary
matter, the prime one being a semi-annual
iark! What care these men for five hundred
or a thousand dollars difference in the matter
OF trade compared with the pleasure of a
three days lark. Soberly, it seems to us that
this kind of bug-a-boo is little too ancient
and deal too thin.
