An Idiot Boy With a Memory.

The Pennsylvania state training
school for feeble-minded children at
Media, has just been visited by a cor
respondent of the Springfield Republican.
He found over three hundred young
idiots under treatment calculated to
make them stronger in mind and body.
There are school-rooms holding from
twenty to thirty pupils each. In the
more advanced classes, writing,
arithmetic, and geography are taught.
In d kindergarten, the visitor saw small
children modelling in clay, building
block houses, and weaving paper into
fanciful shapes. Cases of remarkable
improvement were related. The great
wonder of the establishment, however,
is thus described: "The trite aying that
blood will out is exemp]ifed in the
idiot savant, who is never found among
the lower orders. A curions case of this
kind is reckoned among the pupils of
this school. So remarkable are his
powers of memory that after listening
to sermon or other discourse he is
able to repeat it, verbatim, preserving
also: the information of the speaker. AS
test of this singular faculty the lad
was once taken to Media to attend
lecture upon some scientific matter.
and the next day was asked to repeat it.
To the establishment of all he readily
repeated the entire lecture, rendering
Latin phrases and technicalities IS
glibly as the vernacular; yet in his
mentality the reflective power was dull
and feeble, and he was unable to con-
vert into practical sense the knowledge
he so lightly acquired"

Wht re the Romans Got Their Lead,
From the Atheneum.

The iberality of old Father Tiber is
boundless. One of the last discoveries
made in its bed may prove interesting
to the English student. The enormous
supply of lead needed for the water
system of and for the daily distribution
of a milliard, 700,000,00O litres came
from English mines. The business be-
longed to the Imperial isc. Many
masses of lead have been discovered in
the seaports Of Great Britain, ready for
shipment, one has been traced halfway
on the coast of Spain, but none was yet
discovered in Rome. We have sue
ceeded in finding one at the bottom of
the Tiber, fallen overheard in the mo-
ment of landing. 1t is 81 centimeters
long, 80 wide, 10 thick, and has many
stamps from the officers of the fsc, as
we'll as the. weight engraved. The
weight is $40 pounds.

to be submitted to the judgment of the
court, l have to suggest the questions
on the enclosed memorandum. Your
excellency will observe that these ques-
| tons, though numerous, are simple, re-
quiring but brief answers, and not call
ing for elaborate opinions. As your
excellency acquiesces in the propriety
of settlipg all disputed points of this
order in q just and constitutional man.
ner, beg to suggest in answer to OBJ
jections which I have seen elsewhere
urged, that there is abundant time for
the courts to consider the subject. The
court can readily convene at the CAPT.
tol, Wednesday next, or by Tuesday, if
necessary, and the questions can be
placed before them on either day. AS
it has not been the habit of the court to
hear argument of the questions SUBJ
mitted by the governor, there would be
little doubt that on Friday, January I'd,
your excellency would receive the an
swer of the court to all questions. Even
should the court require day more
than have supposed necessary, there
would still be four full days left before
the assembling of the legislature. When
your excellency asks me to indicate the
points that have not already been adju-
Dictated, 1 reply that such an attempt
would be
vALUELEss AND INDEED FOREIGN
to the whole scope and purpose of this
peaceful mode Of adjustment. Your
excellency must be aware that there is
oftentimes as much dispute among
lawyers as to what has been adjndica-
ted by the court, as there is touching
that which has been enacted by the
legislature. Your excellency will readi-
ly admit that the court is best able to
determine what has already been adju-
dictated, and with the strong tendency
of the judicial mind to adhere to on it's
own maxims of standing by that which
has been decided, there is no danger
that your excellency's decision will not
have the full advantage of any opinions
heretofore pronounced by that eminent
judicial tribunal. I cannot close with
out urging upon your excellency
THE PROPERTY OF GOING FORWARD
in the course which, in your communi-
cation, you have indicated your willing
ness to pursue. 1t has never, in the
history Of the state, happened to any
one of its chief magistrates to have it
in it's power to do so much for the
peace and good order of society as your
excellency enjoys to-day. The submis-
sion of these questions to a court will
instantly allay strife, preserve order
and restore harmony. Can your excel
lency give the people any assurance of
what may happen should this constitu-
tional mode of adjustment be rejected,
and an attempt made to organize the
legislature by force, on the basis of
membership which so large a proper
ton of the people of Maine believe to
be contrary to the actual result of the
election? will not permit myself to
doubt that, with
THE TWO COURSES
before your excellency-one of abso-
lutte and honorable peace. the other of
possible violence, your excellency will
promptly choose. and steadily adhere
to, the former. In that belief beg to
subscribe myself, respectfully yours,

MORRILL's REPLY TO GARCELON

MoRR1LLs REPLY TO GARCELoN.
In answer to Gov. Garcelon's letter,
Mr.. Morrill, addressed the following
communication to his excellency,
dating it at Augusta December 9th.
To His Erce|le'acy, Alonzo GarceIon, Cover
nor of Name:
I acknowledge the receipt of your
excellency's letter of the 25th inst, and
your excellency will of course perceive
that it is quite foreign to the purpose of
my correspondence to discuss the jus.
tice or injustice of the great excitement
which now menaces the peace of the
state. Your excellency agrees with me
that the excitement exists, and also that
it is highly desirable to allay it by
means and measures which are alike
honorable to all parties. 1t is my pur-
pose to confine the discussion to those
POINTS WHICH ARE ESSENTIAL,
and on which we may reach an agree
ment,and we may therefore wisely avoid
those which are non-essential, and on
which we may differ. To come directly
to the point to which your excellency's
communication relates, to-wit: the points

Applying these rules to the various re-
turns, a tabulation of the persons voted
for the different Offices with the votes
each has received determines the re-
suit. In the inspection of returns and
tabu]ation of the same, which has just
been completed by myself and council,
it has been our purpose to
apply to every return the same
rule-to-wit: Compliance with the
requirements of the constitution and
the law, without fear or favor; and if
the result as to the political complexion
of the legislature is different from what
was claimed by politicians interested in
influencing the elections in other states,
it is owing in part to the fact that the
claim was unfounded, and in part to the
carelessness of the municipal officers in
making their returns. The truth is, the
popular vote was against the republic
can party, and in the representative,
and senatorial districts the vote was ex-

OF the city OF Aburndale was made,
because the voters names were added
to the check list in three of the wards
in violation of the law while the voting
was going on on election day. Afida-
WITS were filed fully establishing that
fact. Other afbdavits plainly show the
same conditions Of things in other cities.
We consider these facts as not legally
cognizable by the governor and the
council as a canvassing board, and we
have disregarded them. In our tabula-
ton we recommend reference of all
such papers to the legislature.
The returns from Portland are de-
fective because they do not comply
with the constitutional requirement
which provides that the names OF all
the persons receiving votes shall be
stated in the returns. A large number
of votes were returned from said city as
" scattering" and there was no possible
means afforded by the returns to de-
termine for whom such votes were
thrown.
The returns from the cities of Saco,
Lewiston, Bath and Rockland are fatal
ly defective, because they are not sign
ed by majority of the aldermen. I'm
der the statutes, and by q decision Of
the court, such returns cannot be
counted, and we have been obliged to
reject them. 1t will devolve upon the
house of representatives to determine
in the first instance and finally who
have been elected to the house from
these cities, as we have no legal evil

A Daring Young Indy Traveller.

There is no woman OF our day, asserts
the London Saturday ReUtep, whose
life has been richer in romantic incident
or whose death has possessed a more
tragic interest than that of Alexandrine
Time. That a young, wealthy and beau.
tiful girl, should give herself up delib-
erately TO African travel is of itself an
astonishing thing, that she should carry
out her resolution rs Miss Time did,
with the constant purpose OF bringing
light to bear ulon the "habitations OF
cruelty" is heroic. AS a mere traveller
she almost rivaled Spoke and Cameron;
and there is a facination in her story, in
the passionate devotion she inspired In
those who formed her escort, that be-
longs to her alone. She was murdered by
two treacherous Tauareg chiefs in Fez-
zan, south of Tripoli, in March, 1868,
in the thirtieth year of her age. Miss.
Betham- Edwards, in her new book,
"Six Life Studies of Famous Women
says;
A few days after her departure the
murderous scheme was put into execu.
ton. Early in the morning a quarrel
broke out-as IL is supposed, intention
ally-among the camel drivers, and,
hearing the noise, the young mistress
of the cara> an hastily quilted her tent
to see what she could do in the way Of
%paciication. Her appearance was the
signal agreed upon for the massacre.
One Touareg first disabled her right
hand by a saber thrust, in order to pre-
vent her from using her revolver, then,
with n rifle. ball in the breast, ACHE ye6
his deadly work. The Others rushed on
to the slaughter. The three Dutch
sailors, her sole European attendants,
were next assassinated, and then the
plundering of the rich caravan began.
The faithful negroes, who adored their
kind young mistress, were carried OIL
with the spoil, and the bodies of the
victims left unburied on the sands.
Thus persisted in the flower of her
youth, one OF the most enterprising
lady travellers, and n of the most
courageous women who ever lived.

How the ArauCanOs Live,

The dwelling OF the Araucano is
round in shape, with n conical roof, the
center OF which has an opening for the
escape of smoke. The size is in proper
ton TO the family occupants. 1t Is
made of upright posts planted in the
ground, and horizontal poles are fastened
all around, leaving a narrow place for
the hide doorway. Over the poles are
tied, one hanging down over the other,
punches of dried grass or straw to keep
out the rain and wind. Some OF the
c~aciques are said to possess as many as
nine wives, who sleep upon dried hides
spread upon the floor, the rest of the
family occupying the spare, space, the
feet toward the middle of the room,
where q fire is kept up during wet or
cold weather. Men and women battle
every morning at daybreak in the rivers
or creeks, ard at the trading posts it is
said that the women are very Clearly In
their cooking, using wooden spoons in
place of their hands. When not en-
gagged in war or hunting expeditions
they delight in stretching out at full
length on the ground in the hot rays Of
the IN. The women do the outdoor
work, the planting and gathering of
crops, and attend to indoor work a.
well. Their cows supply the principal
wants of the family, and are taken great
care of. The husbands are kind to their
wives, to all appearances, and the
traders say that very seldom does h
quarrel take place among the women.

The Man with a Glass Eye.

As a train on the Kansas Pacific pulled
away from the Sixteenth street depot a
few mornings since, a tall, angular speci-
men OF humanity to, k a seat opposite a
lady passenger, and to all appearances
was intontly engaged in studying her
face. AT first the lady treated the rude
ness with good. natured indifference.
But at last it began to tell on her nerves.
1t was a peculiar and astonishing piece
Of impertinence. He apparently had the
faculty OF lookingtwo ways at once. One
Of his eyes was restless, excited, and
roved in all directions. The other, fixed
and stony, fastened on her with an I'M
deviating stare. She turned her head
away, but Il intercepted her vision. She
tried to hide behind a paper but she felt
that cruel eye piercing through the
screen and creeping with a stony look all
over her features. 1t seemed to be pick
ing them up one by one, and examining
them with care. The thing became
uncomfortable, and she cried out to him,
iercely:
"Sir, why do you look at me so per-
s~istentlyP"
"Me, madam; why, bless my SOUL

more your eye has been absolutely riv-
eted on my face"

"Well, madam, that eye won't do
you any harm. 1t generally looks any
way it pleases-it gives me a great deal
of trouble. A great many complain OF
1t. At first l thought they were making
fun o fine, but I've found out differently
now. I've been knocked down two or
three times for the impertinence OF that
eye. Iwould leavGi it out altogether but
for the looks of the thing. It's a glass
eye, madam-only n glass eye. i hope
you'll excuse it. But, upon my soul,
I'm not surprised that even a glass eye
should feel interested in go pretty q

TO bear upon her in undisguised admir-
alton. The lady laughingly accepted
the explanation, and the rest of the
tourney was passed very pleasantly to
