The North Pole the Original Garden Of Eden

Among the many speculations as TO the site of
the garden of Eden, the dwelling place of the first
human pair, according to biblical history, almost
every other spot Of earth has been suggested as
the abode of primeval Innocence and bliss, but no
one. until now, has conjectured that she true
Eden was at either pole. Now a DR.. Hardinger
thinks that he can give good reasons for bis belief
that the grand old gardener and his wife " had
their first situation and lost it, in the region
about the North pole. Several considerations led
him to this conclusion. In the FIRST place, the
North pole, hard as it Is now TO get to il, was
originally an easy place TO get away from in all
directions from no other could il be so easy, and
hence the dispersion of men to all parts of the
globe is more readily accounted for. DR.. Hard
niger hnds, what most other modern archseol0gists
have nat, abundant evidence of the identical
origin of all races of men in language and In
religious beliefs and rites. The Hebrew Scrip
lures say, as Hardinger interprets them, that
Adam and Eve after leaving the garden went to
the southeast and dwelt there. In Siberia, there
fore, We should expect to find evidence of the
earliest residence of an intelligent and cultivated
people,. Such evidences there is In the traditions
OF several eastern nations that their ancestors
came from The north, and also In ancient remains
of implements, burial places and mines worked
and abandoned, many years ago. Besides these
considerations which make his theory plausible,
DR.. Hardinger has others which he calls theolog-
leo scientific proofs. Accepting the nebular by
pothesis. be admits that our earth was at one
time an incandescent ball, which only by gradual
cooling and other changes became fit for the abode
of man. The poles, now the coolest part of the
surface, must at first become habitable, and
therefore probably first inhabited. Moreover, we
are told that when Adam was driven out, an
angel with a flaming sword was set to guard the
gate and prevent his return. The Hebrew word
I've trust the doctor for his etymology) for flame
or fire is " esh, - which is evidently allied to our
word ice. The flaming or icy guardian has ever
since barred the way to mans first home, and
incidentally we may derive from Hardinger's
theory a conclusive argument against future polar
expeditions. If anybody is mot yet convinced
that the site of Eden has at last been discovered,
let him read DR.. Hardinger's own elaborate argu-
ment and doubt no Worcester Spy.

LeprosY In Canada.
A LOCALITY SEVERELY AFFLICTED WITH THE HORRIBLE
DISEASE.

In the Arcadian village of Tracadie, near the
mouth of the Miramichi river says the Toronto
(Can.) Globe, there have been lepers for the last
eighty or ninety years. A hospital for their
benefit is supported by the local government. A
correspondent of the Church Journal who has re-
Gently made a visit to the establishment, says the
lazaretto, though well kept as far as it goes, is
much too small to furnish the requisite accommo-
dations. The sexes are kept apart, and every
thing is done for the comfort of the unfortunates
that is possible with the means placed at the dis
posal of those who manage the institution.
The leprosy from which they suffer is eIephanti-
dSiS grocorum, so called from its tendency to make
the limbs swell to elephantine proportions. The
disease is understood to have been brought there
by a French vessel, which on its return voyage
from Smyrna, touched at the Island of Mitylene,
and took in a large quantity of clothing and other
stores, and on her way TO Beaubaris Island a
French military port, she was wrecked near the
mouth of Miramichi. The people in the neigh
borhood played the part Of wreckers, and helped
themselves to the clothes cast ashore, which were
supposed to be tanned with leprosy, the conse-
quence of which was that the disease soon broke
out amongst them. Another account is that the
vessel in question brought two lepers from St.
Maloes, and that every leper known in Tracadio
descended from one or the other of these men.
The opinion there is that the disease is not con-
tagious, but simply hereditary. The people have
no dread of it, and persons engaged about the
lepers Tor years never contract the disease. Not
only do the lepers marry among themselves, but
such is the feeling among the poor French in Ira
cadie that there is no repugnance in many cases
among perfectly healthy people to taking leperS
for husbands or wives. The faint generally man
ifests itself in every alternate generation. In
this way the disease has become permanently
seated in the locality, while the general poverty
and not very cleanly habits of the French popu-
lation tend to excite and intensity it.
1t first shows itself in the form Of small white
spots on the breast; then the face assumes a puffy
appearance, and there is much pain, languor and
drowsiness. The fingers become crooked, the
peck swells, the limbs show all the symptoms of
dropsy, the nails fall of, aud at last the throat
and lungs are attacked, and the sufferer dies, a

mere mass of lUathsome disease. Its duration
varies from FIVE to twenty-five years, according 10
the strength Of constitution. Leprosy IS not
nearly 50 rare q disease as is generally supposed.
IL is on the increase In many OF the British de-
Tendencies. In some parts Of India one person
IN every hundred is a leper. aud in some parts Of
the West Indies, as well rs in the Sandwich Isl
aads, IL Is also very prevalent. LeprOsy is gen
orally thought to be ineurable. Il may be miti-
gated u some extentby cleanliness and attention
to diet. but that is all The certain prospect Of
death from such a disease must be horrible be-
yond conception.-AmeTloaR paper.

The death of the wife of ex-Judge George g.
Barnard, Of New York, is announced. Mrs. Bar
nard, in the trial which resulted in her husbands
removal from the bench, took, even for one in her
position, an extraordinary interest, and it is said
she never fully recovered the blow she received
through her husband displacement. Il related
that after the trial one of the Judges of the Court
of Appeals, who bad sat on the trial, met Barnard
and held out his hand to him as usual. Barnard
drew himself up to his fall height and said: "fou,
sir, have joined in a decision which deprlyes me
of the right Of practicing my professional earn
ing bread for my wife and ehildren-whom you
have disgraced and yet you offer to take my
hand - and so saying the e~x-Judge turned away

Too MUCH RELIGIOUS - GUsH SO says the
New York Observer. DIR. Prime thinks "we
have bad too much of that sentimental kind of
piety which is now ridiculed by the appellation
of the religion of gush.'" And he proceeds
thus: lit is difficult and perhaps needless to
define the word in such a relation. 1t speaks for
itself, as that kind of 9 religion which expends
itself in emotional feeling and expression, while
it ignores the higher life of self-denial, duty,
obedience to the laws of God, holy living and
faith working by love. 1t is a form of religious
supremacy selfish, excluding all sense of Ill desert,
rejoicing in feeling good, and neglecting the
weightier matters Of repentance and new obedi-
ence. We want a revival of a better religion
than this. And unless all signs fail in drought
we are to have it soon"

EpIToK's WoRK.-The Cincinnati Gazette thus
discourses on a subject which a good many people
similarly situated will appreciate: Not all who
visit editorial rooms are intruders or bores, but a
great many are, and these are SO numerous that
all visitors are looked upon with some degree of
suspicion until their business becomes known.
1t is never pleasant to be interrupted in editorial
work. 1t has a tendency to make men cross.
There is a pressure upon editors. They work
nearly all the time under a pressure. Often their
ideas do not flow freely, and when they are not
pleasing themselves they are not in a mood to
spend much time upon those who interrupt them.
We suppose it is safe to say that three-fourths of
those who call to see Is the editor have no bus
mess properly with that individual. Often they
do not Know him personally, and in order to find
him they interrupt half a dozen men. who have
important work to do, and only a limited time to
do it in. Then, if they receive short answers,
they feel aggrieved, and talk about impolite treat
ment. The editorial rooms of a newspaper estab-
lishment are private, and are only to be visited,
by those who have business with the editor, The
best way, if people have something to gay to an
editor, is to write that something down and send
it to him. This would save time on both sides,
and answer a better purpose, nine times out of
ten, than personal interviews.

A New Cure-aIl-Ice on the Back.

No more drugs mo more potions mo more
Phi. Rhei. ComHSCno more EPSON salts mo
more castor oil !ffAll drug dosing is hereafter to
be dispensed with, and SO are all dispensaries
themselves, together with venesection and blisters.
DR.. John Chapman, an Englishman, has made
discoveries and invented a general Neuro-D Dynamic
Medicine, which is nothing more than a bag q
ice applied to the back We do not feel surs
that we perfectly undkrStand DIR. Chapman's
theory, but for the benefit of invalid readers of
the Tribune, we will tfy to explain it. The
Neuro-D Dynamic system means the art of turning
on and off steam at the centers of nervous action.
What is pain? ga phenomenon of functional
change in the sensory centre into which the
affected nervegis rooted. = Pain, like
ordinary sensation, is of various degrees of in
tensity, and whereas pain denotes a more rapid
functional change in the affected sensory centre
than occurs during ordinary sensation, the sue
cessively higher degrees of intensity of pain are
expressive of successfully higher degrees of func-
tional change in the sensory CENTRE" Does the
reader, be he sick or well, understand? But it
makes no difference. Who does understand what
hurts him when his head aches? He may know
generally that it is the super1uous half pints at
the dinner the night before, hut why the convivi-
atty has resulted in cerebral arrangement be
doesn't know. He can swallow his hook and
soda-water without any scientific knowledge, or
rather he can put on one of DR.. Chapman's ice
bags. To cure him it is only necessary to apply
cold to the spinal column. The remedy is simple,
however complicated and "bothersome" may be
the theory. A bag Of ice to the back-that is
all! Does anybody of a doubling turn of mind
think that this would be disagreeable2 On the
contrary! All DIR. C~hapman's patients testify
lin writingl that they were refrigerated and re-
freshed. They usually fell into a pleasant sleep.
One patient evidently a LADY, writes "The
ice is beautiful l don't think l shall ever be able
to do without tit is SO comforting" Another :
81 find the ice very agreeable | look for it, and
like to have it on longer each time" Still
another 81 go to sleep with the ice on it is
astonishing how pleasant it is" The ice-bag
doesn't make you feel cold-on the other hand, it
makes you feel comfortably warm. Asa resource
in the dog days, what medical treatment could be
more equisitely delightful? Never mind all that
learned talk about !" the sensory centres, - but
get an ice-bag, o valetudinarian, fill it, adjust it,
and g lie down to pleasant dreams."-Neio YORK.

The present season has opened more auspic-
iously than any previous one since the Americans
possessed California. The sessonable, copious,
warm rains extending to every district on the
Coast gave a fine start to vegetation, and grass
came forward rapidly and abundantly. An OPP
portunity too is now afforded to cleanse old fields
by turning under the growth of weeds. A vast
extent of bill land can also be titled, that has
hitherto been untouched by the plow. Every
thing indicates prosperity. The people are every
where at work. Industry, economy and perseyer-
ance are the order Of the dsy.-CgtyorHia PdPer.

The Result In New York State.

The Albany Erening Journal did splen-
did service in the campaign just closed in
New York State, and nobody has any better
right to rejoice over the result. 1t says OF
the grand result in the State
No matter where the small balance falls
there il glory enough for one day. The
whole moral force Of victory, We repeat, is
with US. We have both Senate and As
sembly. We have the Democratic Governor
guarded by Republican Legislature. We
have blotted out Tilden's great majority OF
last year We have scattered the dSusion
that he is the one leading and invinci5le
figure before the people. We have put New
York in good shape for the Presidential bat
tie. We have given cheer and courage to
Republicans throughout the country. We
have made our own party strong, harmonl-
ou s and progressive and left our adversaries
di soreanized, embittered and resentful- In
g sery aspect, looking to present effects and
future influences, it is Enthusiastically Dem
ocrstic defeat and Republican victory. In
deed, remembering that Governor Tilden
and his friends confidently counted on .
majority Of fifty to seventy-6ve thousand,
and that their whole plans for the future
depended on such Q result. il is terrible
blow TO them.
