To regain or recover health, persons
should be relieved from all anxiety
concerning diseace. Ths mind has
much influence over the body. For Q
person to imagine he has . disease may
produce that disease. This we see ef'
iected when the mind is intensely con-
centrated on the disease OF another, II
Is found in the hospitals that physi
clans who make specially of certain
diseases are liable 70 die themselves
and the mental power is SO great tha,
sometimes people die Of disease which
they only have in Imagination. Per.
SONS have been known who have be-.
come sessick, in anticipation of voy
age, before reaching the vessel. We
have known person to die from i'm.
agining that he had cancer in his
stomach, when he had no cancer nor
any other mortal disease. A blind
folded man slightly pricked in the arm,
has tainted and died from believing
that he was bleeding to death. Read
ing . medical book containing descrip-
tions Of certain diseases has often pro-
duced the symptoms, even among nedi-
cal students, while they at last go. the
disease, unless it was stopped by com
mon sense treatment. Therefore we'll
pc. ions, to remain well, should be
cheerful and happy; and sick persons
should have their attention drawn as
much as possible from themselves, and
directed on subjects cheerful to contem-

Demand for Indemnity.

Inquiry at the State Department
confirms the statement Of the London
Tunes" that the United States gov
ernment has made demand on Eng.
land for $685. damages for the For
tune Bay outrage. The correspondence
between Secretary Evarts and Lord
Salisbury, when the payment Of the
Halifax fisheries award was under con.
sideration, thoroughly reviewed the
subject of the Fortune Bay troubles
The State department adheres substan-
TALLY to the ground that was then
taken by Secretary Evarts, while the
Times reflects in considerable mea-
sure the views held by Lord Salisbury.
1t is the wish of the United States gov
ernment that the matter should be set
tied, as it seems sure to result in diff
culties Of a grave nature unless an
early understanding is reached. 1t is
felt that under the treaty as construed
by the English government, the privi.
leges entAiled on the United States, are
not proportionate to the prices paid for
them, as was stated would be the case
a few years ago when the Halifax
award was paid. The Fortune Bay
outrage has been q subject Of CORES
pondsnce ever since, and negotiations
will be continued until some definite
result is reached.

An Unrepentant Rebel.

LOUISVILLE, Ky, Aug. ia CORES
pondent who has been trying to obtain
some expressions from DR.. l.. P. Black.
burn, Governor-elect, concerning the
statements in the Republican press
charging him with having introduced
infected yellow fever clothing into this
country soon after the war, failed in
his mission.
DR.. Blackburn would say nothing
other than, "The statements are lies,
and don't care d|n for all the
Republican comments in Christendom.
There is general desire in Kentucky,
as well as everywhere, that the Cover
nor-elect should come up and give an
account Of himself in the connection
indicated, but he has since his election
given little heed to what is charged.
Upon occasions, however, when the
matter was broached, he remarked that
a physician, by his knowledge of dis
ease and medicine, has the same right
TO slay an enemy as General has with
an army and ammunition. The shot.
gun policy having more followers in
Kentucky, there are some few wicked
persons in this glorious bluegrass eli
mate who doubt the right to kill ad-

Why he Went.

President Gowen sat down at bis
desk in the Fourth street Office Of the
Philadelphia and Reading Railroad
yesterday morning, after sixty days O.
absence in Europe, but was interrupted
constantly by the visits Of friends who
had dropped in to congratulate him
upon his safe return, and persons who
called on business. During the day
he was "interviewed" by number Of
newspaper reporters, to whom he talked
with some freedom. He denied that
his object in visiting England was for
the purpose Of securing loan for the
Philadelphia and Reading Railroad
Company, and said he had borrowed
no money. His object in making the trip
was for recreation, and the only bust
ness matter he had looked after was
thu suit of the Collins Bros. in the
Madeira and Mamore Railroad affair.
He said when the Messrs. Collins enter
ed into the contract it was thought
that the suits had been finally settled.
The bondholders, however, filed new
suit, which was decided against them.
An appeal was taken to the Court of
Appeals, which reversed the decision,
and decided that the money must 60 TO
the bondholders. An appeal has now
been taken to the House of Lords,
which will not be decided until next
spring. The Messrs. Collins are about
filing claim in their own names
against the fund, which will for the
first time raise the question of their
equities in the matter. The North
American forshadowed the objec: Of Mr..
Governs trip weeks ago.

IA Unnatural Visitor.

William Langley, cotton planter of
Gwinnett county, Ga, was at work in
his field with several men, a woman
and three children one sultry afternoon,
when they suddenly saw small col
umn, not larger in circumference than
barrel, skim rapidly along the
ground. The column or spout appeared
to be filled with dust, and the centre
contained what looked like ball of fire.
The mother rushed for the children, who
crouched low in fright, bnt fore she
could reach them pile of guano bags,
children and all were scattered right
and left. The column struck a stump
fairly from the butt to roots and tore it
from the ground, the wood dropping
twenty or thirty yards away. Mr..
Langley was sucked in as the whirlin.
thing bolted by and thrown into gully
some distance away. In the next in
slant the strange visitor had gone.

THIRD EDITION.
Secretary sherman

stated to an Associated Prsss reporter
on Monday that he expected nearly all
the outstanding called bonds, amount
ing to $47, 900, 900, to be presented for
payment before the lst of October, and
that, hereafter, the Treasury operations
wsuld probably have no material effect
on the money market. 1t Is, neverthe-
less, obvioas-says the IN. Y. Times"
from the state of affairs in Wall street,
that the Treasury policy has had very
secided effect on the money market, and
that the announcement Of the exten-
sion granted to the subscribing banks
has had an effect on the 4 per cent.
bonds quite different from that which
the extension itself was intended to
produce. The Secretary's expressed
wish that all American securities held
abroad should be- sent back, would, If
fulfilled, have a still more disastrous
influence on the market quotations for
United States bonds. If the foreigner
can find better employment for his
money than per cent. investment,i it
would be very remarkable il people at
home could not put theirs to more pre-
ftable uses. ..r.t.I.

A Youthful F0rxer Pulled Up
Short.

A despatch was received by Superin-
tendent OF Police Walling,o of New York,
few days ago, asking him to arrest a
lad of sixteen years, named Dell Nestor
who had fled from his home in Geneva,
N. Y, to New York after committing
forgery. He is the son of wealthy
brewer at Geneva, and became attached
to a young lady, the daughter Of a
prominent surgeon Of that place, with
whom he had eloped and came TO New
York. Before doing SO, however, he
forged his fathers name TO check for
81 ,024, and obtained the money. Mes
tor was arrested at the Anthony House,
on Broadway, on Tuesday, where he
had registered as q. c. Cook, but no
trace could be found of the young lady.
He was taken TO the Police Court and
rsmandsd. Nine hundred dollars in
bills we're found in his possession. His
father has been communicated with,
and will go to New York for his son.

MOrmOns.

The Mormons in Utah are being
nightly stirred by the courts the newss-
papers, their Gentle nsighbors and the
administration, and nobody need be
surprised if a little more hard pushing
will impel them to commit some act
which will call for the use of force upon
the part Of the government, with the
results, perhaps, to provoke serious
collision. In that event We may have
occasion to suppress Mormonism and
polygamy together. Such result is
certainly to be desired. The only ques-
tion is whether the end is so desirable
as to justify huge military demon.
stration and much bloodshed. The Utah
Gentiles who are hungry for the ia.
farms of the Saints probably think it is
but the most violent enemy that poly.
gamy has in this part Of the country
can hardly be expected to take precise
ly the same view of the matter. The
Mornons are not going to give up with
ont a struggle.

An Innocent Man in Prison.

A young man, named Cyrus Wagner,
is now in the Reading Jail, under SEN
tence for burglary he never committed
and knew nothing about. The house
of Daniel Risser in Bern township,
Berks county, was broken into and
robbed on the night of October Sd last,
the burglars entering the room of the
master OF the house, an old man, and
engaging in struggle with him and
his wife. Wagner was arrested on
suspicion, tried and convicted, and
sent to prison for the act, though he
strongly asserted his innocence. Now,
two tramps named August Huber, alias
"Schwartzer August" aud Max George
Maier, confess that they assisted by
three other Germans, committed the
robbery and declare that Wagner was
not with them and they never saw him
before.

An Old Coin.

Mr.. Samuel Silver, brother of Mr.. A..
H. Silver, chairman OF the Building
Committee Of the Levy Court, has in his
possession a pistola Of l749. 1t is
one of those peculiar Spanish coins
which were stamped in the parent
country for distribution in American
provinces. By several letters it can be
seen that it stamped for Mexican circu-
lation. He found it some time ago on
his farm near Red Lion while plowing.
The share turned it up, together with
three Indian darts. The articles were
found on the site of the old Red Lion
hotel which was torn down some years
ago. Mr.. Silver is we'll known as a
numismatic, having the finest collec-
tion of coins in the peninsula.

Maryiand's Independent Voters

BALTIMORE, Aug. l9.-The Baltimore
County Taxpayers and Temperance
Parties held conventions in Temper
ance Temple, in this city, to-day. Re.
publicans taking prominent part in
both. They called the attention Of the
people to the fact that, by proper nom
nations to county offices, the local
taxes, which are SO enormous in COM
parison with all others, are largely
within control, and that all questions of
salary are within the peoples power to
regulate without legislative sanction.
Each of the conventions appointed
committee Of rs, two from each district,
to nominate candidates for county Off
ces and the State Legislature, the Sc
lections to be made regardless of party
afiliation. 1t has been agreed that the
Republican nominees not on the fusion
ticket will withdraw, and there is lit
tie doubt that the tax payers, by this
amalgamation, will beat the 'Conserva-
tive" Democrats in what has heretofore
been their banner county. Similar
coalitions against Democratic tyranny
are forming in most of the counties Of
the State.

GvlLFoRD, Conn, August 10.
On Friday night last there was va.
gon at the depot here to meet the Rev.
W. H. H. Murray, for it was believed
that he would return home that even
ing, but he did not come. Mrs. Murray
still remains on the stock farm, just
outside the town proper. She sees few
friends, and does not 60 out much. As
far as known, no one here has heard
within the past week from Mr.. Murray,
and at the Office in New Haven, Of the
Boston Buck board Company they have
no information of his Whereabouts
Mr.. Murray's friends are very uneasy
at his continued absence, and instead
of the talk about him dying out as time
passes it rather seems to be on the in
crease, and what were before only
whispered as rumors are now almost
boldly asserted as facts.
