Startling Figures,

The standing army of this country
numbers, in time of peace, about 32,-
600 men and costs $40, 900, 900 while
the navy costs about $4,000, 900 per
annum. Pensions amountto $3e, ,O0O,-
e00 per annum, and the interest on the
national debt (now some So. 225 ,Oe0,-
0CU, reaches the sum of Sill ,250, 900
per annum, making the sum total of
S2l1 ,350, 900! This sum divided among
our estimated population, $4,000, ,O00,
would give to each man, woman and
child OF the whole country about "a 50
and to each family about $24.O0 as
their yearly contribution for tho wor-
ship of the god of war. And let it be
remembered that the whole national
domain is mortgagcd to the amount of
", ,225 900, 900 to be paid by us or our
descendants, or remain as an incubus
on the energies and enterprise of our
prosperity in all coming time! And
what have we in return for such an
cxorbitant expenditure? What beside
a crippling of energles,a wanton waste
OF human life, waste of property, a
cherishing of the war spirit, and a
fearful depression of the standard of
morality, as indicated by a manifest
increase ef murders, thefts, rebberies
and licentiousness?

RUBBEE AND CIPCINE.

There is scarcely a branch Of human indus
try in which India Rubber has not in some
form found its way. Although widely known
and used, but few are aware OF its medicinal
virtues and great curative properties. Prac-
tical experiment has proven that it is natur
al reservoir Of electricity, continuing more
than any known subs tance or compound
Owing to this fact 1t has been used with sue
cess in curing Nervous complaints and Rheu-
matisn that were invulnerasle to drugs.
1t has also been discovered that India Rub
ber possesses all the properties valuable as
aspe i6c for Pulmonary complaints and cures
many forms of Consumption and Lung dis
eases. Combined with Capcne 1t is unparal-
leled as Pain Reliever, whether external
or internal. Nearly all the Surgeons have
adopted it on account OF its great healing
properties.
The most erectual way of using the article
is in the form OF a perforated. plaster. The
extensive use OF Ordinary Perfei ated or Per-
ous Plasters. is a testimony to it's merit.
dinary Rubber Porous Plaster is that it acts
too slow'y-requiring days and continuous
wear to relieve pain or TO effect cure.
A celebrated Physician Of New York. who
has long made the medical properties OF Rub
Der a study has succeeded in making gre2.
improvement in Porous Plaster by introduc
ing Capcine, which overcomes all the former
objections, causing the Plaster to do in
few II oments or hours, that which 1t former
ly required days or weeks.
Capclne Is the most valuable ingredient
ever used as an externaremedy. ltoperate'
with astonishing vigorand relieves pain i'm
| mediately. Its curative properties have be
come so famous that ansnterprisng firm in
New York took it in hand, and by bringing
Capcine raster to the attention OF Phys
clans, have met with unprecedented success
The article is known as BkNSON'S CAP
CINE PLASTER. The price IS the came az

what Moths OF the Lobby Cost.

1t appears from the testimony taken
before Mr.. Clymer's committee that
over four hundred thousand dollars
was divided in two years among the
lobbyist and jobliers who succeeded
in imposing y moth extermlnator on
Congress. At the very outside, one
hundred thousand covered every ex.
pense connected with this scheme for
depicting the Treasury, SO that the
profits arc easily counted up. The
banker through whose hands the
money passed, furnishes very inter.
esting catalogue of the patriots who
practised this addition, division, and
silence. Some of them are pretty well
known to the country as professionals
while the names of others are less IA
miliar to the general reader of news
papers. Several Of them appear to be
disguises for more important person.
ages.
1t is rather n reproach to the self
appreciation of journalism at the CAPT
tai, that George w. Brcga, an old ex-
reporter, should have pocketed $92, ,571
while Dom Piatt, living and actual
editor, only got 500, 1884. Perhaps this
was not Donn's fault altogether, for
the principals swear he stood up man
fully and demanded more, and hence
their quarrel. On his side Dom swears
that his virtues was resentful, on dis,
covering that indirect means had been
used to keep the moths out of the mi
litary clothing, In fact, he at once
telegraphed to the Rev. Gen. James

DONG WITHOUT RAIN.-W

DONG WITHOUT RAIN.-We see it
stated that an eminent French chemist
NJ. Paraff. acting on the idea that any
substance having strong affinity for
water would, when applied to land,
absorb sufficient moisture from the at
mosphere to answer all the purposes
of rain to vegetation. believes he has
found such substance in the chloride
of calcium, (the metallic base of lime, }
which he has successfully used on all
kinds of soil in times of drouth, such ap
plications retaining moisture for 3days
and thus establishing the principle
that-when intelligently utilizcd-the
air itself can in great measure be
made to take the place of rain. Now,
even if this be so and there can be no
doubt of the fact, and the object can
| be as well attained without resorting
| to the trouble and expense involved in
the means used by Mr.. Paraif, it would
result not only in untold advantages to
the farmer. but the world at large
would be inconceivably benefited by
thus having the doors effectually barr
ed against any future danger of famine

Real Estate PosI Investigation.

WASHINGTON, April 29.-The Real
Estate Investigating Committee held a
meeting to day, when they heard Hon.
Zach. Chandler, Secretary of the Inte-
rior, in relation to the appointment OF
Pension Agent Clements, at Macon,
Mo. He said Clements was appointed
on his own efforts, and not because of
the supposed influence that Mrs.
Doggs had with the President, and
that the $100 per month which Glenn
ents paid her was not for her influence
but was his own arrangement, which
related to an altogether different mat
ter. 1t seems to be the general i'm
preston that the committee will SUBJ
pena Hallet Killbourne again before
them, and ask him the questions which
he refused to answer, and if he persists
in refusing to answer to again have
him committed to Jail for contempt,
and then refuse to recognize the courts
and keep him there until he does an
swer. They argue that unless the
House has this power allinvestigations
must come to close.

Insane hsyiums.

While we are getting accounts of the
treatment Of the insane in an institu-
tion ia Washington, there comes a val
liable report OF the management of the
insane in Great Britain, made TO the
New York State Board of Charities by
DR.. ii. D. Wilbur, superintendent Of
the New y ork State Asylum for Idiots.
In Scotch asylum which this gentle
man visited there were 261 patients,
none of whom were in seclusion and
none under restraint. or 122 men all
but SO were employed, and of 139 wo-
men all but Is. Every door in the male
department was unlocked. and most of
those in the female. at is not easier
for the officers and attendants" said
the superintendent, "but that is not
the question" The boards of lunacy
hold that the paramount consideration
is the welfare and comfort of the pa
| tients. Al Gheel, in Belgium, there is
| a famous insane colony of some ,30C
men and women, and all but 40 OF
them live in the families of the village
| and the commune, and the highest au.
theritles agree that the plan is success
| full.
The extravaganza in building Amer.
lean asylums is thought to limit their
opportunities of usefulness. In several
States asylums are building at cost
of $4,000 to $4,000 a patient. A
model asylum. has just been erected
and equipped in England at a cost OF
less than $3.50 patient. The plea for
the costliness of construction in this
country is durability, which DR.. Will
bur and all modern inqulrers agree is
the last quality to be thought of in any
hospital, and especially one for the in'
sane.
The retrenchment of expenses, how.
ever, important as it is, seems, from
recent disclosures, to fall into insig-
niticance compared with the reform OF
such abuses to humanity as are alleged
to exist in some of our insane institu
tions. OF all the Affections which can
befall mankild none except crime can
be compared with the loss of reason.-
Disease of every other kind, and death
itself, are blessings IN comparison. II
the victims of this inexpressable Ca
lamity cannot be sent for remedia
treatment to lunatic asylum withou
danger of incurring such treatment a,

of Washington asylum, what Ian
guage can express the horrors of thei
condition?
