THE CURABILITY OF CoysUMprIoN =

IHE DURABILITY OF CONsUMprIoY -
The popular belief in tho incurabil:ty of
consumption now seems to be on the road
to complete overthrow. The change in
sentiment has not been brought abou. by
any new method in treatment, nor has there
been perceptible enlargement in the num-
Der of those now living who can claim that
they have had and recovered from this dis
ease; but the evidence upon which the re.
vision in opinion is based is even more con.
ctusIre than that which could By any pos-
sibility be obtained from either Of these
two sources. 1t is simply this, that nos.
"'orfem examination have revealed the fact
that pulmonary ph:hisis is a complaint of
much greater frequency than has been COM
monty supposed, and that a,ulttudes of
people have had tho disease. and tove besn
practically cured of it, who have never so
much as suspected the cause of their i'll.
ness. In series of examinations, made
some time since at the hospital at Edir-
onrsh, 1t was found that the lungs of not
less than one-third of these who died when
over 40 gears Of age were in a condition
that could be accounted for in no other way
than by the supposition that at some period
in their lives consumption had existed, and
had aitcrward been checked or cured. Por.
t'ons of the lungs had b zen DESTROYED, but
the cavities formed had been healed by con-
traction and adhesion Of their walls. or the
dlsntegratcd substance had been shut in bv
the formation Of ibrous tissue. In the
records OF post mortcn, examinations at the
Saltpetriere Hospital, at Paris, similar cx-
pcrlcnce is found, except that in this case
the ago was advanced to 60 years and over,
and Of this class more than one half wero
shown to have suffered from consumption
at some period in their lives There NAV
be nothing new in this to wcl.in formed med
lcal men, but TO the non professional reader
the information cannot fail to be reassuripr
The disease is TO great extent hereditary.
and there arc probably Thousands of peo-
pie in this city who every now and then ure
visit I'd by the gloomy thought that thev are
liable at any time to fall victims to this
deadly inheritance. IF these can be made
TO believe that they have already passed
through the ordeal, supposition which, in
the majority of cases, would probably be- a
true one, no slight addition will be made to
the sum m. total of human happiness.

NEGRO DISFRANCHIsEMENT- -Wosb;no-

the Kepubllcan party arc Of opinion that
the outrage business cannot be made tell
ing issue in the next Presidential comno;on
IL Is mere matter OF sentiment, they say.
ana does not come home to the people as
practical issues always do. They admit
that II the white people are to control tho
Southern States, they must also, to a vcrv
large degree, control the negro vote The
votes OF the ignorant and dependent clas-
Scs are always more or less controlled by the
wealthy and intelligent portion of tho pop.
ulatlon Railroad corporations can and do
dictate to their employees. So d. mill own
ers IN Pennsylvania and Massachusetts,
but there Is practical question growing
out OF the Southern outrages, saw these
men, which will claim the attention of the
Northern public mind, and that is the cues
'ion oi representation. The South has
twenty representatives based on negro votes.
III these votes arc to count for notbinc
save to add representation to the SoutI
then tho North will demand that sometime
be done. The North pays the great pro.
portion OF taxes, and it will not have its
money voted away to its disadvantage by
these twenty additional representatives..
which in effect give the South the control
OF the government
The reply to this by Southern men is
You amended the constitution, and i'm.
posed negro suffrage upon us, and we have
suffered immcasurable evils thereby. Now
that the advantage is to be reapcd by us
you want TO undo what you have done
we had no choice in the matter. but had

GRANDFATHER LICKsHINGLE DESCRIBES
THE FIRE-PIEND.

81 tell you what it is, children, there's
no use talkiu'. The newspaper men of to-
day cant sling ink with their graudfathcrs
They're dsseneratin' This country sees
no graphic writin' like it did when your
grandfather was ridn' the editorial tripod
like witch astride the gale. know of
no place that affords better field for de.
sscriptive writin' than these very oil regions
Why, the fires you have heard of can't be
beat, exceptiu' of course, beyond the tomb
When hear Of one Of these eonaagra,ions
L just ache to take my pen in hand an dc.
scribe it in my own graphic style"
( Grandfather closed his eyes, swayed to
and fro on his easy chair, while his face
glowcd with enthusiasm. lie seemed to be
in transport of joy.
Bring forth MY good gray quill" he
said, "and let me paint the burnin' town"
One of the children said he thought
grandfather was going to have cit; father
said he was only in the newspaper business,
III his imagination, at salary of thousand
dollars week, but would soon be all right.
"Tis night. Fire Grc fire - said grand
father, rapidly tracing a sheet Of imaginary
paper with goose.qull of the mind
"flre . fire . fire and the affrightcd winds
took up the cry. The fire fiend with his
sword Of hams, was seen leapin' from the
back window of bake.shop, brcathin'
smoke and forked lightin' from his nostrils.
In an instant the sleepin' city was out on
the floor barkin its shins on chairs and
things in mad hunt after its pantaloous.
Hush . hark The fire. .fiend rushes on and
on like war.horse, lcarin' destruction in
his trail. Look he scales the side of Won
corner grocery, even as Kitchen, maid would
scale fish, an with his fiery, forked tongue,
hcks the hungry holocaust that he is he is
llckcn' up the sign, Salt mackcrel, bacon.
Hour. feed an provisions as if he hadn't
tasted bite for mouth. Sec him leap to
the caves of my lady SHOWER. an gorge
himself upon the ginger bread work of the
corn'ccs Now he hurls his body through
the windows Of yondcr residence, ronsock,
thc premises an escapes like rocket
through the roof. He turns samcrsauIts
from housetop to housetop, knocks over
ch'mn"y.pots. dances jig on the hot shin
giles, like the boy on the burnin' deck an
without as much as look cut behind rains
a shower Of sparks upon the heads Of the
panlc,strickcn populace But see him now,
lie spits upon his caiouscd hands an scout,
mp the libcrty.poc like cat up an ample
tree. tp!up! up! Higher higher h-h-
er Higher, and yet higher! Higher than
a hail! Higher than the price of butter
until now with one fiery foot he tptocs it
