truly wonderful changes upon the body,
no matter whether the object OF it be the
relics Of saints, the Metallic Tractors, the
water of Lourdes, the image of the Virgin
at Knock, the thermometer of Sir Hum
phrey Davy, or the suposititious prayers
of the Pennsylv ania invalid. On one occa.
sion q condemned murderer was expert
mented upon as follows He was told that
he was to be bled to death. Then he was
placed upon a table, his eyes bandaged,
and Jets of warm water arranged SO as to
trickle down his arms. Then he was
pricked slightly over the veins OF the arms,
and the jets of water being turned on he
was led to believe that his warm blood was
pouring from him. The doctors stood by,
watch in hand, and affected to mark
the successive changes in his appearance.
In a short time, however, these changes
actually appeared, and as the water dripped
SO the mans life really drained from him,
and when the physicians pretended that he
was dying of aremia he really was mort
bund, and died before them, Of nothing but
the belief that he had been bled to death.
Instances such as this are far more
common than is perhaps generally sup.
posed. They go to show how very
intimate is the connection between mind
and body, and they appear to confirm and
support the modern hypothesis which
recognizes in what is called mind nothing
more than manifesto ton or function of
organic matter. The subject, however,
has not yet been sufficiently studied to
deduce from the facts at command any
thing like their full significance

SAYS the latest Mercantile Agency report In
view OF the increase in transactions which
the last eighteen months have witnessed, the high
prices which nave been touched for almost every
species of property, and above ALL the speculative
excuses which prevailed toward the close of 1881,
it is marvellous revelation of the strength and
bty Of the trade of the country that so few fail
ures, comparatively, have occurred. 1t must be
borne in mind that the number engaged in business
has greatly increaGed, records show that there
were 10000 persons in business in 1878, while in

The present condition of the Hebrew
refugees appears now to be briefly this:
Large numbers of them are still con-
centrated at Brody and other ports of
departure. Their condition there is n
shade less wretched than it was q
month ago, as the expectation has
thinned their number slightly. Up to
the present date about 81 100000 has
been raised for them, (which England
has contributed $3.50, 900, France $780,
600, Germany $15O,OOO, Austria $780,
600. The remainder has almost alto
gether come from this country. The
funds given in Europe it will be remem-
bered, are almost invariably used to eX-
port these people to the United States.
Here they are not only received, fed
and clothed, but sent to places where
they will have chance for work and
wages. The Pail Mall Gazette, in
noting the enormous assisted emigra'
ton of these people to our shores
remarked significantly: "The United
States is the one place in the wOrlC
where success can only be attained by
hard work. Now the Jew will trade

Two young men of California, John
Keefer and Edward Chapman, perform
ed the bold exploit in 1879 of murder
ing a poor Chinaman for the fun
of the thing in the neighbOrhOOd of
Chico, as the closing achievement of a
spree that had lasted several days.
They buried the body in a swamp.
Fearing the discovery of the crime,
Keefer shortly thereafter fed to Oregon,
where he took to stock raising. He
was getting along very well, and
nobody in the vicinity had any suspi-
cion that he had been guilty of wan
ton murder; but his passion for liquor
finally gave him away. He went on a
prolonged spree that came near wind
ING up in fit of delirium tremens, and
in that condition boastfully told the
story of his crime. When he came to
his senses, he found himself in custody
and although he then denied the truth
of what he had let out, it was too late
to retrieve his blunder. The Sheriff
had telegraphed to the authorities at
Chico. the whole occurrence was
brought to light, and the murderer has
been taken to Chico and lodged in
prison.

There has been some hasty talk in
newspapers that should know better |
to the effect that the Supreme Court |
can interfere and declare the River and
Harbor act unconstitutional. This in
wolves a serious misapprehension of the
relations of the several departments of
the Government 1t is possible that
some proper cause of action might
arise in the course of the execution of
the law in which its constitutionality
might become involved; but such
question cannot be dragged neck and
heels into the Courts. Neither the
President, nor the Secretary of War,
nor the Attorney General, can raise
such an issue with Congress before the
Courts. 1t is the duty of the Executive
Department to obey the law, and not
raise questions of its constitutionality.
If a private citizen should be injured in
his rights or property by the operation
of the law he may seek redress in the
Courts, and in that way its constitu-
tionality may be tested, but in no other
way. Congress, the Executive and the
people disputed for years over the
political question of slavery in the
Territories, but it could never be
determined until the right of bred
Scott, poor negro, to his liberty be-
came involved An act of legislature
of political character, under which
some right of action does not arise, is
not properly subject for review in
the Courts. This sound rule has some
times been departed from, to the great
confusion of the lines which separates
the several departments of the Govern
ment and keeps them from colliding
1t would be intolerable if the Executive
Department should resist any act Of
Congress it should see fit and drag il
before the Courts to have a decision
upon its cOnstitutionality. The proper
and only tribunal for the decision o
the River and Harbor question is tina
of the people at the ballot-bOx.-PhiId

BEELZEBUB.
BY THE BARD OF TOWER HALL.

Everywhere throughout creation,
From and to the midnight hour,
BeelZebub is ever busy,
Seeking whom he may devour."
This we learn from Holy Scripture
Therefore, none its truth can doubt;
So, when rings the bell of conscience,
Then for Beelzebub look out.
Though he have a foot that's cloven,
Yet he gently, lightly goes;
And, when he for souls is seeking,
Is not apt to stub his toes.
Sure of foot, and stepping softly,
Not football you may hear;
Yet old Beelzebub will reach you
And be roaring in your ear.
Yes for he " of wars tn father"
Will with fendish zeSt rejoice
If by roaring like lion.
He can drown your inward voice.
Don't you listen TO the demon
If you do he will deceive.
With the sopulstry so subtle
Whispered to our Mother Eve.
Do not eat of fruits forbidden
By the laws of God and man.
Though the sly, old serpent utter,
Freely eat of all you cam
To friendship for your neighbors,
sympathy for all distressed,
Charity and kind forebearance,
Give a home within your breast.
COnstancy and loves devOtions
Cherish as of self part;
Let not Satan drive the angels
From the chambers of your heart
Let the Right be aye your armOr,
While the sword of Truth you WELD;
Then, by Heaven made strong in yalor,
You shall stand and never yield.
Though the very Prince of Devils"
With his legiOns may asSail;
Not a shaft shall reach your bosom
Through your trusty coat or mail.
Such a coat, 1 must acknowledge,
Is a coat much better far
Than the best they manufacture
At the Tower Hall Bazaar.
That is saying much, yes, very
Much indeed-the truth is bold
For the coats of Tower Hall are
Firmly stitched and cheaply sold.
As Bard who's well intentioned,
We to every man would call
Wear the coat or mail we've mentioned

IT Is NOT GIVEN 40 MAN to know with certain
