We publish the following extract,
from an eminent author, for the ben
eft Of people generally, and newly
married couples especially, who may
be Ignorant of the awful danger they
incur by imprudently occupying the
same bed: l..l d,
"Morc quarrels occur between
brolliers, between sisters, between
hired girls, between clerks in stores,
between apprentices in mechanics
shops, between hired men, between
husbands and wives, owing to cleo
trail changes through which their ner.
vous systems go by lodging together

clothes, than by almost any other dis
turbing cause. There is nothing that
will so deranges the nervous system OF
aperson who is eliIninative in nervous
force. The absorber will go to sleep
and rest all night, while the elimina-
tor will be tumbIing and tossing,
restless and nervous, and wake up in
the morning, fretful and peevish,
fault-fnding and discouraged. No
two persons, no matter who they are,
should habitnally sleep together. One
viii thrive, the other will lose. This
is the law, and IN married life Is de-
fled almost universally" .

Intelligent Remarks.

Among the thirteen hundred con-
victs in the Georgia Pcniientiary
there are not q dozen unable 10 work.
The average health is better than that
of Atlanta. With nearly seven, hun
bred in the Tennessee Penilenliary,
there was not q convict in the hosDi.
tai a few days ago. How is 1t in the
Kentucky Penilentiary? Out Of less
than one thousand convicts, more
than fifty have died since the first OF
January, aud about half the survi.
vors have been at one time unfit for
duty. Last year the States Of Ten
lessee and Alabama received a iei
revenue of more than ono hundred
thousand dollars from their convict
labor which was utilized in building
railroads, opening coal mines and
improving rivers. Kentucky leases
her convicts for a nominal sum that
has uniformly brought the State in
debt, and in almost every instance
bankrupted the lessee, The entire
system is vicious In theory and cruel
In practice. Instead of being hud-
died up in the whole at Frnnkf fort
dying for want Of air and with not
room enough 10 work to advantage,
every able. bodied convict ongltl0 he
put 10 work improving the water
ways OF the State and opening coal
mines wherevercoal ia to be. had.
The talk about interfering with hon
est labor is nonsense. The products
of convict labor go 10 the open mar.
keis and cone rs directly Into compe.

something be done, aud quickly. for
the relief OF the State prisoners, and

Maine.

Augusta, Dec. 1.-THE Maine
STANDARD, Democratic organ Of the
State Government, announces to-day,
in q semi-otficial tohe, that the returns
from Portland, Lewiston, Saco, Au-
gusta, Ilallowell, Bath and iiockland
for Representatives all have some
technical defeat and that the Cover
nor and Council will reject them all.
These cities elected 10 Republican
Representatives. The most common
defect alleged is that the return was
signed by four Aldermen instead Of
four. In Portland tie defect was in
using the word scattering. ' a''"
Belfast iis also understood to be
among the DISTINGUISHED cities on the
ground that DR.. Brooks, the Repre-
sentaiive-clect, is al examining sur
geon OF prisoners, and is thus ineligi-
ble. The law prohibits the Governor
and Council taking into account the
question Of eligibility in Senators and
Representatives-elect, but II is uhder-
stoodIhat the Governor and Council
adjudge this law to be also unconsti-
tuiionaI, and not TO be obeyed. Ben.
ton, Keliebeci county,, IS included
among those where tits alleged the
returns were clandestinely changed.
Charles D. Rounds, who made the
charge of illegal amendment OF the
returns, was before the Governor and
Council, to-day, in reference to tho re-
tnrns for county officers of Washing
ton county, Rounds being candidate
for reelection as County Attorney.
A somewhat angry colloqny ensued
between the Governor and Rounds
in regard to the charges. Rounds
stated that he had come there to in
spect the returns for county officers
by specific appointment, and that he
would be ready in regard to the
charges preferred by him whenever
the Governor and Council wonld
order the investigation for which he
had asked. 2
