From Washington.

The following is an extract from {;
private letter. and will be read 10y many
of our readers with interest :
TUESDAY eve. Judge Poland won {;
great victory. We feared he would
lose. The whole power of the admin
iStration was against him. He had
been up the whole of the previous
night, and was much exhausted. He
began his closing speech at 100 p. NJ.
The galleries were crowded. and the
stiffness on the floor gave tokens of the
importance of the vote that was to fol-
low. He stated the case. Silcnced But
Ter, was witty and grave 10y turns. and
made most etfcctual plea for the
maintenance of the constitution. The
excitement was intense when he fin
i>hed, and roll call began. When it
was through. and the result announced.
George Bancroft. the historian. threw
his arms around him. and said that if
there We're only few more men like
him there would he hope for the nation.
Congratulations came in on every hand.
The gravity of the Arkansas case
cannot Ice oVcr-c>timated. Had the
Presidents wish been followed. he
lieve we should have had Il second
civil war. Judge Poland, 10y his c"ur-
age. his decision, and his refusal to
please the administration at the expense
of law and conviction. has won the
respect of history and as the new
senator from New York. Mr.. Herman.
says. could be elected to Congress to
day from any district in the country.

him to remain III private.

The doctor said he would try the nitrate

dered to lie down. aud at first, on the
application Of the remedy, raised most
extraordinary roar at the acute pain
which it occasioned. The effect. how
ever, was wonderful. The eye was 10

partially see. The next day, when he
was brought and heard the doctor's
voice, he lay down OF himself, placed
his enormous head on one side, curled
up his trunk, drew 10 his breath just

This Is the reason that the major

die drunkafds. The pulpit, the
bench, the forum, have contribut-

drunken habits. The beautiful
woman, the sweet singer, the con-

thisis the only true recuperati0n
of brain power; the only actual re-
newal of brain forces, because dur
ing sleep the brain Is, In o sense,
at rest, In q condition to receive
and appropriate particles Of nu-
triment from the blood which take
the place Of those which have been
consumed In previous labor. More
stimulants supply nothing they
only goad the brain, force 1t to 9
greater consumption Of Its sub
stance, until that substance has
been so fully exhausted that there
is not power enough left to receive
a supply; just as men are some
times so near death by thirst and
starvation that there Is not
strength enough left 10 swallow
anything, and all is over. The
capacity OF the brain to receive
recuperative particles sometimes
come on with the rapidity OF
lightning, and the man becomes
mad in an instant; In an instant
falls into convulsions, In an instant
loses all sense, and he Is an idiot.
We repeat, there ID renewed force

Wild Woman Of
Woods.
From the Albany Journal. |

The appearance OF q woman in
the woods along the Albany and
Schenectady Turnpike has been
reported, she being believed to be
some poor c, eature who has escap-
ed from an insane asylum. On
Monday afternoon three young
men residing in Wateryliet de.
termined on her capture If possi-
BILE, and with great intention Sc
GREETED them selves In the woods
where she has her haunts. She
appeared, but on discovering the
men ran scrambling into the
woods They succeeded in seizing
her, but she struggled and fought
desperately to release herself.
From the description given by one
of the young men, Edward Har-
rison, her age cannot be more then
twenty-five years. She is tall,
handsome and graceful, with rich
yellow hair. which Is uncared for,
and left to float over her shoulders
and back.
She is evidently a Frenchwoman
az her mutterings were all in the
French language, though she did
not speak much. She was Barefoot
ed and nearly devoid of clothing,
and fought the young men like a
tigress for a time, and finally laid
down and cried piteously. Then
she suddenly drew small pair of
scissors from her bosom and struck
at Pennington, one of the young
men, injurIng him severely. Fl.
nalIy she broke loose, and with the
speed of a deer made her way into
the woods, and was soon lost to
sight.

Jules Janin and His Debtor

Jules Janin had a keen eye to
his own interest, as the following
story will show: When quite a
young man certain neighbor oil
his owed him fifty francs. One
day when he went to ask for il he
found his debtor In great trouble.

man. II have no money / am

Suddenly an idea struck him
s'You have a dozen or two of ex-
cellent wine in your cellar, you
told me the other day ; lei me have
that, and i will give you an ac-
quittance for the fifty francs. -
Impossible; the porter will not
let it pass OUT II will take my
chance of that If you will agree to
my proposition" The debtor did
agree, and the receipt was signed.
An hour afterward a man In a
workman's dress, with his hat
sloIched over his eyes, appeared
at the door with two wine-baskets
filled with bottles. II have come
to change some wine that was sent
