On the morning of the 18th of August last Urban
Catlow. steerage passenger on the steamship Ari-
zona. during a voyage from Liverpool, England, TO
this port stabbed Owen Jones, s;eerage steward OF
the steamer who almost instantly died from the
wound thus inflicted. On the arrival Of the Arizona
at this port Catlow arrested at the solicitation
OF the British Consul here and brought before
United States Commissioner Osborn for exanlnatlon
application for his extradltion to England Tor
trial. On the examination number OF witnesses
We're sworn. who testified to the fact of the stab
diate death of the former. There was no
question whatever raised to the fact or
the stabbing and the consequent death OF the
victim. For the defence it was incontestaby proven
that tho time of the stabbing and for some time
previous the accused had exhibited evident signs OF
insanity The defence also set up that Catlow
is now perfectly sane and consequently no just or
legal grounds under the extraditon treaty list for
his extraditon. In support OF this latter branch OF
the defence several medical experts were examined
who all testified the present sane condition OF the
accused. On this point the commissioner yesterday
discharged the prisoner The is without prece-
case establishes precedent, the decision of the
Commissioner will be of little interest test
case in connection with the extraditon treaty be-
tween this country and England. After reading his
decision Commissioner Osborn advised Catow, II ne
had friends in this country, to return to his
home and Catlow replied that he should return
home at the trst opportunity. He shook hands
with those in the Commissioners room, and as he
walked out he remarked, "What mercy to escape!

Floors and Carpets.

There is d stroug protest offered, in
different ways and from various sources,
against our long established practice Of
making poor floors, with. the. design of
keeping them covered with carpets
stretched and fitted to every part and
G srefully tackled down. Carpets in daily
use can not be Kept clean except by very
frequent shaking and beating, and they ],
do much toward corrupting the air by
retaining impure gases, hiding the fn-
est, most penetrating dust in their
meshes and underneath them, and by
giving off particles of fine wool into the
atmosphere, with other dust, as they
are swept or walked upon. There is
demand for, better floors, not necessRri-
ly inlaid or mosaic5, of different kinds,

seem relief to the housekeeper, when
once the carpets are procured and tilted
they do not show tie dirt as the bare
floors do. But oil when they do get
full of dust! And when house-cleaning
time comes, and they must be taken up
and shaken and whipped as they well
deserved With warmlysmat1e floors and

and sweeter without them in summer.

an exact imitation Of Jenny Lind 3 sing
ing, rendering the sseags of the great
singer in different languages . SO | in
simultaneously and correctly, as to both
words and music, that it was difficult to
distinguish the two voices.' 10 in order
to test the powers of this somnambule

In like manner, by concentrating the
whole attention upon q particular OBJ
ject, the sensibility of ahypnotizeds sub
ject may be increased to, an extraordi-
nary degree. A person in this state has
been known to, find out, by the sense of
smell, the owner of glove placed in
his hand, from among more than sixty
persons. The owner Of q ring was
similarly picked cut from among Twelve
persons. In one case, the sense Of tenn
perature was 80 extraordinarily ex-,
altedn that differences ordinarily I'M
practicable were at once detected, and
any considerable change produced great
distress in the subject. Not Less remark
able are the instances inswhich the cura-
tive powers OF hypnotisn have been
successfully Experimental upon. It has
been shown that the pulsations Of the
heart and the respiratory movements
may be thus accelerated or retarded,
and various sectetfons may be altered,

which have been referred to, and which
have been cited by the highest scientific
authority, show that the most marTel-
Gus phenomena have been produced
through artificial sonnambnlism These
phenomena, as, explained, by Dr. Car
penter, are due to the entire engross-
ment of the mind with whatsoever may
be for the time the object, Of its atten-
tion'' and its passive receptivity for
any notion that may be suggested to it.
