A Startling Story.

How a Wealthy Gentleman was Lured
 to a LunatIc AsYIum-The Victim of
 a ssPackeds, Commission i'm Mexico
 Legal Efforts for a Release.
 From the N. Y. Heraid.l
 PH11ADEIPH1A, Jan. 24.-A case of an un- usually startling character is now pending Tn the Court of Common Pleas involving the lib erty of Dr. Augustine Schultz, a native of Prussia, but until August last citizen of Mexico, and who, while visiting this country en route to Paris, was, six months ago, in- veigled into the Pennsylvania Asylum for the Insane. As shown in the sworn deposition of Dr. Jones, of the asylum, neither a cer- tif1cate from physician of the United States nor & warrant of commitment accom- panied the delivery at that institution of this stranger by another stranger, known as Senor del Campo. An enquiry de lunat:co has been obtained by some of the most prominent citi- zens of Philadelphia, whom he has succeeded in interesting in his cause, and the argument was to have come up to-day. A lengthy rail road case prevented it being reached, although the court was all day filled with lawyers and spectators anxious to participate in and hear the case. It goes over to next week.
 THE STORY OF HIS LIFE. Dr. Schultz was educated in Paris, where he graduated in medicine and practiced in the hospitals of that city. When he was twenty four years of age he went to the city of Mexi- cd, and entered there upon the duties of his pro- fession. After residing there for some years, and after a European tour. he returned and married the daughter of the Marquise of Gaudaloupe. He was then very well of, and his wife had a fortune also. twelve month after the marriage he took charge of a hacienda or plantation, and en- tered into it's cultivation, putting some $4O,000 into improvements and realizing 8 good profit on his investment. When his fortunes were riding on the tide of prosperity difficulties arose between him and his wife, mainly, it is alleged, as the result of the intermeddling of his brothers -in-law. Early in July, 1879, at the instance of these broth ers-in-law,t hs was seized on the plea of his being insane and incompetent to handle his own affairs, and tried, as he claimed, before 8 sspacked" commission, and although five phy-

Protests Against the RRcket-The Va
 riety of Cries, HO1VIs, and JingIings
 with which the Citizen Is Afflicted
 Efforts at Abatement of the Nuisance. From the London standsrd.]
 The numerous letters which havo been ad-
 dressed to us on the subject of street noises
 prove how widespread and intensified this
 nuisance of unnecessary din has become. Day
 after day we are inundated with appeals, all
 couched in the same strain, from nearly every district of the metropolis and from almost all
 conditions of men and women. To publish 8 tithe of the correspondence would be impos-
 sible; but from the selections which we have inserted as specimens of much more it will be seen to what pass the helplessness of the po-
 lice and the powerlessness of householder5
 have brought the ''quiet" streets of the me- tropolis. One correspondent writes from
 Marlborough in Holloway. This locali- ty is far from the vicinity of the mighty cur rent of life that rolls from Hyde Park to Mile end, but it is not quiet. Every morning be- fore o'clock 10 milkmen yell frantically, though they know all their customers. Then
 come two milk-carts, who drive as if milk were the proper fluid with which to extin-
 guish the distant fire to which they seem has
 tening. Three strange milk-msn follow, who shout on alternate sides of the street as if
 the residents of Marlborough did noth-
 ing but drink milk. At intervals the milk
 men return, as if afraid that they had not suf- ucl6nLiy maU0 GQ0 AlOiOK6Dl or HOLLOWAY conscious Of their presence. The cats meat
 man follows with his savory barrow. Dur ing the day brass bands bray out their dis cordant clamors as evening closes in. from 6 to 10 organs, sometimes two at one time,
 make night horrible, and if by any chance there is an interval of quiet, 8 fresh install ment of from six to @ dozen "bull- -throated Germans" assert their right to bring the music of Hermann's Land upon the tired tympana of the long-sufering ''Englander." A pro-
 fessionaI man writes us that by medical ad-
 vice he has been forced to leave London, to avoid the organ men who haunted his neigh
 borhood. They planted themselves in front of his window, and laughed contemptuously at the suggestion that they should go away. To tell them that there is sick person in the house is only hint for them to raise their de- mands, for before the police can be found and the scharge" taken, the sleepless patient may be beloved to death. Hence the dis tressed relatives prefer to bribe the perse-
 cutors to move on to another neighborhood,
 there again to blackmail the unhappy people
 who pay high rents in order to have the privi-
 legs of living in ''quiet street"-a term
 which these foreign pests have gone far to
 make 6 jest of and mockery. Sunday

The Governor,s Appointments.

[Hartford Correspondence of ths Sunday Rsgist,
 Both the appointment of railroad and insur- auce commissioners-Mr. Hayward of Col chester, and Mr. Brooks of Wolcottvlle-are not in accord with the spirit of the statutes relating to these offices. The Legislature never designed that either offioe should be held by representatives of the interest to be looked after. MT. Hayward is just as much disqualified by the fact that he must resign the management of railroad or sell his stock in railroads in order to be legally qualified, as if he had found it impossible to resign CT sell. Technically, he escapes the disqualifcations Of the law, but morally the law reaches him. If he had not been member of the Senate, which passed upon his nomination he would not have been confirmed. As it was, when the vote was taken UtUG 00ce, but one Senator voted at all.
 That single affirmative response was techni
 cal affirmation of an appointment resting wholly upon a technical evasion of the law.
 There was a fitness of things in it so pro- nounced that there is no escaping the conciu- sion that the Senate, except for social and per sonal restraint, would have expressed it's mind freely. If Mir. Hayward had been in Colches-
 ter, not Senator, he would not have received
 a quasi Senatorial endorsement as commits
 sioner. And now that he is confirmed, there
 is manifest inconsistency in his holding on to
 two places as Senator and commissioner. MT
 Brooks, the insurance commissioner is spoken
 well of as driving, enterprising man of busi-
 ness, but his insurance connections though
 perhaps they are not very strong, are not what
 are held to be the legal qualifications
 The report of the joint stock commission opens the way to the erection of new State office with handsome stipend accompanying
 It is doubtful if the Legislature accepts tho
 bait SO long as under proper enactments reg ulating the formation of joint stock compa nies the business can be properly and safely done in the offics of the Secretary of State, where there is clerical assistance enough to do the work without interfering with other mat ters. The object of making @ new office Is not, of course, because the State demands it, but because some man wants it; and 1t is said
 the chief applicant is H. s. Barbour of this city, who was 8 member of the commission on the subject. Mr. Barbour is 8 Republican law yer, and has the additional recommendation of having lived the greater part of his life in Litchfield county. This reminds me that there are six substantial we'll paying offices | within the gift of the Governor-one insur ance commissioner, two bank commissioners and three railroad commissioners-and that | the present distribution gives nothing to four counties-New Haven, Middlesex, WindhGm | and Tolland-while the salary account gives | $6, 500 to Litchfeld, $6, GOO to Fairfield, and | $3, 900 each to Hartford and New London. Litchfield has railroad commissioner and | the insurance commissioner, and Fairfield 8 l bank and railroad commissioner-four out | six appointments.

General J. z. George, who has been elected United States Senator from Mississippi, is the man who conducted the rife club and shot gun campaign in Mississippi in 1875, and by which that State was by force wrested from the hands of the Republicans. Soon after that campaign was closed he was rewarded by being made judge, and now he is elevated to the Senate. It is suggested that if the Barks- dale who ran against George had been the man who shot Henry M. Dixon, instead of the uncle of Dixon's murderer, he might have been elected. Georges election is a blow at Senator Lamar and his influence, for Senator Lamar did all he could to have his partner, General Walthall, elected.

 The testimony given by MT. William M. Leeds, late chief clerk of the Indian office, concerning the circumstances connected with the removal of the Northern Cheyennes from the Sioux reservation to the Indian Territory, is important. He asserted that the Indian office was informed by their agent of the lack of food, and that Commissioner Hayt failed to furnish the agent with the supplies which the treaty called for, and that the actual quantity of food dsalt out to each of the Northern Cheyennes for each of the five weeks preceding the outbreak in September, 1878, was as follows: For the first week, 20 ounces daily; the second week, 17 ounces ,. the third week, 12 ounces the fourth week, 14 ounces, and the fifth week, IS ounces daily whereas their treaty as well as their necsssi-. ties demanded 28 ounces daily. He also at tackled Commissioner Hayts annual report for 1878, asserting that the statement in it refer ring to the food supply for these Indians is deceptive in several particulars, including the following, viz.-that it states the quantities which were shipped and delivered to the agent as the amounts which were issued to the Indi- ans and makes no allowance for loss and shrinkage, and that he admits an alleged fact
