According to paper in the Nineteenth Century, they know how to cure hysteria in India. They tie the patients hands and feet together, and then thrust cotton wicks steeped in oil up her ncstrils and into her ears. A woman who has had hysterical dumbness will recover her speech in very short time under this reatment.
 Children are imported directly from Italy and sent into the streets of New York to make profitable business of begging. The choicest importaions ot this class ore blind, lame and deformed children One enterprising manager has sent several beggars to Saratoga to test the market there. These incidents H. lustrate the folly of indiscriminate charity.
 Last week, says the Vienna corre- spondent of the London Globe, Miss Kellogg was singing the part of" Filina' in MiQnon, where, in the second act. she has to open several billets. One of these missives proved to be an eloquent letter of eight pages from marquis who has long ,Lbeen in love with her, in which he once more pressed his suit in burning accents.

The establishment of health resorts for iuvalids of this description would bene- fit the city. The age is ripe for m un- dertaking of this nature. There is money enough, enterprise enough, and invalids enough who would be glad to realize the advantages of the hygiear- ium. 1t is necessary that the coming worlds fair should develop some new features to relieve the sameness which has characterized those of the last eight yeats. and it is to be hoped that this may not Ee the only one"
