Again -Stupefyine medicines are
sometimes administered to noisy pa.
tents, not for their own sake, but to
quiet them that others may sleep. The
arrangement which requires this is defec-
Tive. There should be facility for the
isolation ofnoisy patients, that they may
not disturb their netghbors. A good
plan is to have cottages for such, at some
distance from the main buildings. The
friends of every patient send him TO the
asylum with the expectation, that he
will receive the treatment best possible
for himself, individually. They have
right to send him with this expectation.
The Asylum is built for the purpose Of
protection, and, II possible,

responsibility, too, Is to each patient.
He has no right to poison one for the
sake Of others. he has no right to ex-
periment upon the life OF one for the

NEWSPAPER PATRONAGE.

There seems TO be great many ways
Of defining aud unders anding the phrase
newspaper patronage" and as b party
| interested 10 correct definition OF the
same, We give the following disquisition
on the subject by one who knows where
! Of he speaks. It may serve, perhaps, as
a mirror, In which certain parties may
"see themselves as others see them :"
Many long and dreary years il the pub.
fishing business has forced the convic-
,ion upon us that newspaper patronage
is q word OF, many definitions, and that
great majority of mankind are either IT,
norant Of the correct definificn, or are
dishonest 10 a strict Biblical sense of the
word. Newspaper patronage has as many
colors as the rainbow, and 10 as cAangea-
BILE as Chameleon 3cI n.
One man comes in, subscribes for
a paper, pays for It In advance, and goes
home and reads 1t with proud satisfac-
tion that it is his. He hands 10 bis ad-
vertisement, and gets the advantages
thereof. This Is patronage.
Another man asks you to send him the
paper,and goes of without saying word
about the pay. Time flies on, you are
in need Of money, aud ask him to pay
the sum he owes you. He flies into q
passion, perhaps pays, perhaps not and
orders his paper stopped. This is called
patronage. ri N
Another man brings in q fifty cent ad-
vertisement and wants two dollar puff
thrown In, and when you decline he goes
off mad. Even this is called patron
age. at''IFya
One make don't take your paper. tits
too high priced; but he borrows and
reads it regularly. And that could be
called newspaper patronage.
One man likes your paper he takes
copy, pays for It, and gets his friend TO
do the same; he is not always grumbling
to you or to others. but has friendly
word. lfan accident occues in bis Sec
ton be informs the editor. This is news.
paper patronage.
One hands you marriage or other no
Cice, and asks for extra copies containing
It; and when you ask him for pay for
the papers, he looks surprised : !" Yon
surely don't take any pay for such small
matters ?" This Is patronage.
One (is Is good 10 see such) comes In
and says "The year for which I paid Is
about to expire ! want to pay tor
another" He does so and and rstlres.-
This is newspaper patronage. a
It will be seen from the above that
while certain kinds of patronage are the
very life of the newspaper, there are other
kinds more fatal to Its health and circu-
lation than the coils of q boa constructor
are to the luckless prey he patronizes.

A Good Piano for Small Purl0Ts.

Messrs. Robelnn & Bro, 10 Market
str eet, have taken the Agency of the Math-
useck Piano, which was awarded the two
highest diplomas and medals awarded at
the great Fair of the American Institute, in
October, 1867, for possessing great power
and sweetness of tone in a small compass" "
What specially recommends it is the
small space it occupies. It is more than
one-thiid smaller than any other piano sold
while it has the same number Of keys that
other pianos have, and possesses all the
power and tone of others. There are a
number of people in this city who would
like to have piano in their house, but
have been kept from purchasing one be-
cause Of the large amount of room they
take up, and this instrument is intended to
do away with that objection.
