New Cure for Insanity.

The managing doctor of lunatic asy-
lum at Alexandria, Italy, has discovered
a new way to treat and cure diseased
minds. It consists, on scientific princi-
pies, of simply placing the patients in
rooms lit through blue or violet-colored
window panes. An alienated subject
put to bed by this doctor in a room
lighted with the violet-colored panes got
up next morning and intelligently re.
quested to be sent home, as he felt all
right. He was discharged, and there
after became as happy and well as he
ever was previous to his alienation. A
Sreat many lodges and secrets have to
be found out in this world.

HeW to Breakfast.

The Sanitary Record English) sanc-
tons our American custom of a sub
stantial meal soon after rising, as fol-
lows: Let healthy man really ''break"
his "fast" with a substantial meal, and
not break his breakfast with irritating
little nips or slops before hand After
the stomach has at its leisure emptied
itself during sleep of its contents, and
sent them to repair the worn tissues and
exhausted nerve force, and the blood
has been ventilated and purified by
washing and dressing with the window
open, then is the time when the most of
all nutritive articles, farinaceous food,
can be consumed in larger quantities
with advantage. Butter, also, and fat
and sugar, troublesome customers to
weak digestions, are then easily COPIED
with, and contribute their invaluable aid
to performing the duties of the day.
For example, many persons can drink
milk to a fair and useful amount at
breakfast, with whom it disagrees at
others. And the widely-advertised
Breakfast bacon" by its name warns
the consumer against indulging later on
in the day. Cafe az lait and sweet,
creamy tea are to many men poisonous
in the afternoon, though in the prime of
morning they are wholesome beverage
for the same individuals. Let the vigor,
good humor and refreshment then felt
by healthy man be utilized without
delay in eating hearty meal immedi-
ately after he is dressed, and not frit-
tered away in the frivolities of other
occupations. Let not reading, writing,
or business-muscular political, or eco
nomical-exhaust the nervous system.
The newspapers and letters should not
be opened, preferably not delivered, till
the appetite is thoroughly appeased.

Thieves on the ERampage.

THE NINTH WARD RAIDED-A wHEELwR1aHT
SHOP, HOTEL, CIGAR STORE, BARBER SHOP,
AND STORE ROBBED.
Saturday night seemed to be a successful
time for thieves in the Ninth ward, if not
in the quantity of goods stolen, at least in
the number of places entered by the
thieves. To carry out the plan,a brace and
bit was necessary, to procure which the
wheelwright shop of Hinkson q Dixon was
broken open and the required tools pro-
cured.
The next thing on the minds of the
thieves was to have drink all round, which
they got by boring their way through the
door of Patrick ODonnel's bar room at
what is known as the Green Tree tavern.
Here they got all they wanted, but in leav-
ing left spiggot of one of the casks open,
wasting a large quantity of liquor.
After drinks, come cigars, which were
found by boring into McKinney's cigar
store, next door to the tavern, and taking
therefrom about $12 or $15 worth of cigars
and tobacco.
Such gorgeous supply OF whiskey and
tobacco no doubt put the thieves in mind OF
the need of wash and shave, and having
bored their way into Mason's barber shop,
and not finding the razor strop man at his
post they appropriated the most of his best
razors and towels.
By this time getting hungry, they visited
Perdue's meat store, which they entered by
the aid of the brace and bit and appropri'
ated quantity of hams and some grocer
les.
The robbers were very quiet in their op
erations, no one having any idea Of wha
had been going on until Sunday morning
Though certain parties are strongly suspec
ted, it is represented that no very close in
vestigation will be made of the case unit

Toney Gronau, from Petersburg, Virginia,
on his way south to Washington, stepped
from the cars at the depot, to go up town
and see a friend with whom he was ac.
quainted. While passing along Front tow
ards French he met some ladies, and upon
stepping aside to let them pass he stepped
into gutter which an iron plate was too
short to cover, and broke his leg in two pla-
ces. He was placed in McMullen 4 Seals

tai where the fractures were reduced. At
the time Mr.. Gronau fell he lost his pocket
book, containing his railroad ticket and $12,
being all the money he had in his posses
sion. He is native of South Carolina, but
now has wife and child in Petersburg.

Gen. Hayes on the Currency ttucS.
tiOD.

In the Ohio campaign of 1870, General
Hayes took decided stand in favor OF
hard money and an early return TO specie
payments. The contest was mainly on
that issue. The democratic candidates,
Mr.. Allen for Governor, and General Ca
ry for Lieutenant Governor opposed the
republican policy of hard money. Gov
elnor Allen claimed that the greenback
was not only bond or note of promise to
pay money, but that it was money itself
''to pay all debts, including United States
bonds" General Cary savagely attacked
the bondholders and weather. classes,
and appealed to the passions of the ignor-
ant in speeches calculated to deceive and
prejudice the popular mind against the
republican policy of specie resumption.
Senator Sherman, General Woodford Of
New York, Carl Schurz and General Hayes
warned the country against the evils of
iluctuating paper currency. Hayes spoke
nearly every evening during the canvass,
and his voice was persstently in favor of
hard money. A reporter writing from Ohio
to the New York Times said: .'lIayes
meets the money question squarely every
where. On this subject no man in the
canvass has been more positive, more
manly, or more firm" The result was a
victory for Hayes, who was elected Gov
crnor by handsome majority over Allen,
the democratic candidate. The imitation
and reputation movement was struck a
blow from which says the New York
Times, it never recovered. The victory
for sound money in Ohio defeated the in
6ationists in Pennsylvania, and has so far
prevented the democratic House of Rep.
resentatives from repudiatiug the pledge
of 1875. Had the contest been other than
what General Hayes and the other advo-
cases of hard money made il innumerable
ills might have come upon the country.
At best the uncompromising advocates of
honest money have had long, hard task
in holding the country to its successive
small advance toward resumption. To
that inestimably important end General
Hayes contributed as much as any one
man in the country
