Is.a.i.y in Gre.. Men.

The sad end Of Horace Greedy
should be q warning to friends in
the treatment Of premonitory SYM
toms of insinity in great men. When
the late Hon. Preston King. was
stricken with q temporary mental
malady, in 1859, his friends took
him to an asylum at Hartford, Con-
necticut, and when he recovered q
short time after, he was so chagrin-
ed at the thought Of having been
confined in q lunatic asylum that he
refused to return home till an old
friend went and labored with him.
Mr.. King always regarded this as
. clog to his political preferment
When overworked in the New York
Custom House his friends, suppos-
ing that they saw the return Of the
malady, made arrangements to take
him to private institution But
the man who had always been brood
ing over the confinement preferred
death, and at the hour designated
for his removal he made the fatal
plunge from the North River ferry,
having first taken the precaution to
load himself with shot, so that he
could not return within reach of a
rescuing hand.
When Mr.. Greeley's friends, with
the kindiest motives, determined to
take him to Pleasantville, they com.
mitted grave error, and when he
turned to Mr.. johnson and with
tears streaming down his cheeks
imploringly said, 'sdon't let them
take me away! don't! don'tl" he
knew that the door which shut
Horace Greeley into an insane asy
lum quenched the light of earthly
hopes. He might have revived will
quiet at his own friends freside
but the thought that he was adjudg
ed fit case for an asylum was un
endurable. -[Ogdensburg Journal

The Telegraph and Commerce

The telegraph has come to be
one Of the greatest agencies OF civ
ilization. The world, that is the
more civilized portion, is fast be-
coming q network of wires, and
every new section that is brought
under civilizing influence at once
increases it's share to the worlds
commerce. One of the most i'm
portant links in the telegraph sys-
tenn around the world is that Just
completed between England and
Adelaide, South Australia, the dis
tance covered being 1860 miles,
It only remains to lay the projected
cable from California across the Pa
ciic to complete the girdle around
the earth, and bring the extremes
within speaking distance of each
other. Such amazing achievements
of science, of enterprise, and of
social and commercial import, are
difficult to realize; and It is not
much wonder that the distinguished
scientist, business men and others,
who took part in the recent English
celebration of the completion of
the telegraph to Australia, had con-
siderable difficulty in defining just
wherein the benefit ofthe telegraph
consisted. It was said to be q
great labor-saving invention. But
It was pointed out as equally clear
that it also made extra work, as the
merchant, the capitalists and the
journalists know. Like the sewing
machine and the steam engine, if
the telegraph saves labor in one di-
rection it increases it in others, &c
that the world certainly seems nc
nearer q millennium of rest in CON
sequence of it its invention. The
best that can be said of it is, that
it economies power by the annahi
lation of time and space, so far al
these relate to communication. The

The following is taken from the
correspondence of the Indianapolis
Journal:
DR.. Sunderland, pastor of the
First Presbyterian Church of our
city, reports an interview he had
with Mr.. Lincoln nine years ago to-
day. It was just before his Eman-
cipation Proclamation of January
1st, 1863. There was much doubt
in the minds of the people, at that
time, and all we're anxious to know
If the President would adhere to
his promise given in September.
The Doctor, who was there as ssWar
Chaplain" of the Senate, was urged
to visit Mr.. Lincoln, and if needs be
preach to him and urge him to go
forward.
INTERVIEW WITH LINCOLN.
The visit was made the day after
Christmas. The Doctor found the
President alone. He told him he
had not come to take up his time,
but that he had come in view of his
New Year promise, and to strengta
en- his hands.
The President responded good
naturedly: well sir, go on, every
little helps you know !"
The Doctor was in earnest and
concerned, and this unexpected
sally of the President made him
feel like sinking out of sight through
the floor. He ventured to reply:

great boiling ocean, but oceans are
made up of atoms I am glad it
hear you say, though, that every
little helps!' and now Mr.. Presi-
dent, you know that the LIST of JAN
uary is at hand. The people are
anxious to know what you intend to
do"
ssWell, SIR" said Mr.. Lincoln
again, ''you know how it was with
Peter. He was ready to say he
would do a thing, but when the
time came he didn't do it,"
II have special sympathy for
Peter" said the Doctor He was
father of all the Popes of Rome
Peter has been abused when he
should have been exculpated. Peter
didn't finch from his purpose till
he had been rebuked by his Cap
tain in presence of the enemy. And
now, don't you finch, Mr.. President
tl ss011D By yUsr Grsats GaR
tain"
This turn on Peter seemed to
take hold Of Mr.. Lincoln, and re-
minded him Of little story as was
his wont. sAbout this matter of
emancipating the negro said he,
while we have great sympathy for
them, we can't really tell what is to
become of them"
WHAT HE TOLD OLD WADE,
I was telling 9sOld Wade" the
other day, he said, one of Esop's
Fables which I used to read when
, q boy in the back woods of Ken
tucky. The book had rough covers,
| with coarse wood cuts. One of the
cuts represented great potash ket-
tie filed with water. A lot of fel-
lows were pictured around the ket-
tie, ready to douce in black fellow
they had caught to wash the black
out of his skin. The fable goes on
to state that they douced the fellow
over and over in the water; that
the negro took cold and soon after
died! OF cource, added the Presi
dent, all hope for the best; our
idea is to give the colored men al
the white mems privileges, but we
can't tell as to the result The Negro
may catch cold and die!
| THE PRESIDENT PHILosoPHIsEs
The President then came bach
upon the case of Peter as if the
idea of being 'srebuked by the grea'
captain" was new to him After ,
short pause he continued in hii
quiet, earnest manner:
!, "Some things are inscrutable
The superintendent of Providence
over men and nations is beyond on
understanding. If you and I coult
have our way we would never hat
this war, and to go farther bach
with our feeble power of penetra
ton, we would never had the caus
Z of the war" After another paus
, the President added: 1--WE pre-
sent a singular spectacle as ma
ton. Here are two great parts G
our people facing each other i
/ arms, with ministers and prayin
people on both sides; each urgin
3 fasts and humiliations, each seen
ingly conscious that they are in th

r same Supreme power to defen
them in the right" 1--WE can onl
h act" he said, ''upon the decision
OF our best judgements, accordin

+ He had hoped the South woul
i have acceded to his proposal br

There was nothing for him but

Hair Ngor,
For restoring to Gray Hair its
natural Vitality and Color.

gloss and freshness of youth. Thin
hair is thickened, fallen hair checked.
and badness often, though not always,
cured by its use. Nothing can restore
the hair where the follicles are de-
stroyed, or the glands atrophied and
decayed; but such as remain can be
saved by this application, and stimu-
lated into activity, so that a new
growth of hair is produced, Instead
OF fouling the hair with a pasty sedi-
ment, it will keep it clean and vigorous.
; Its occasional use will prevent the hair
from turning grey or falling of, and
consequently prevent badness. The
restoration of vitality it gives to tho
scalp arrests and prevents tho forma-
ton of dandruff. which is often so un-
cleanly and offensive. Free from those
deleterious substances which make
some preparations dangerous and iniu-
rious to the hair, the Vigor can only
benefit but not harm it. If wanted
merely for a HAIR DRESSING,
nothing else can be found 80 desirable.
Containing neither oil nor, dye, it does
not soil white cambric, and yet lasts
long on the hair, giving it rich, glossy
lustre, and grateful perfume.
