THE CURSE OF CHLoRAL.-The choral hab-
it, 50 called, is one Of the most dangerous
ly insidious Of any that has been acquired
since the opium habit A great many per-
sons succumb to it, the real cause of whose
distemper in death is rarely known. The
London Lancet remarks that the course of
chloral upon any life is disastrous enough,
but its features are brought into terrible sa-
liencc when it falls upon the gifts of genius
The late Daniel Rosette, poet and artist fell
a victim to its use. So did Theodore Watts,
Of whom the Lancet observes that no man
ever lived who was so generous as he in
sympathiZing with other mems work save
only when the force of choral turned him
against everything. And it adds that the de-
pendence on its Influence which chloral, ha-
bitually taken, inevitably causes; the ner-
vous prostrations whichit gradually induces;
the irritablity which follows chloral-seep,
and follows equally the sleepless nights of
abstinence; the slowly sapping ofthe nervous
energy-all these are only too familiar, and
over and over again during the past ten
years we have pointed out their moral.
Could warning he more timely or pointed &?

BABIES IN MIDsUMMER.-It is Il pretty
big job to pilot a baby through summers
campaign. A prominent Cincinnati physi-
clan being interviewed the other day en-
pressed the opinion that a baby should never
be given milk save from the breast of its
mother, or, if that be impossible, from the
breast OF lis foster mother. Swil is the
staple COW feed around Cincinnati. He
stated that so many Of the dairy COWS now
adays are conslmptive or otherwise diseas-
ed that in the first place their milk, even if
unauthorized, is poisonous. Again, he
said that the cows milk is joltel for hours
IN hot weather before it is delivered to con-
summers, and thus is literally churned.
Thus it is emincntly unfit for the use of in
fants. The conduct of mothers who nurse
their children from the breast was also re-
terred to. Frequently it is the case that
mothers become Overheated and wrought
up over the washtub and other household
duties and their milk is then unfit fora child
to drink. A baby's stomach is irritable and
tender 1t is overloaded with milk and it
becomes source of pain just as II cinder
does when it flies into Il PERSONS eye. Re-
move Ine cln(ler ana rellef follows. The
baby throws up the milk and the pain
ceases, unless it be hot weather, when it
goes oh through the bowels and sickness results.
So it IS with solid food, only in more pronounced
degree. Therefore selid food should not be given
an infant until it is able to masticate its food.
Especially starch food, such potatoes etc. should
be avoided.
One great mistake mothers make is to suckle
their children every time they cry That is not
right. They ought not to give them the breast
oftener than once in two hours ut first, and this
interval ought to be heightened to three hours
after awhile. During thenight they should not
suckle them more frequently than once. The
proper thing to do is to give them drink of
water The little things are oftcner thirsty than
hungry. The doctor said that ice should be given
the little ones in abundance while they are teeth.
ing 1t relieves and cools the hot, infiamcd gums,
and the baby does not swallow enough ice-water
TO hurt it, because it wastes the greater part of it
The use of flannels on babies all through the.
summer was animadvcrted upon severely. The
doctor declared that children should be clad to
suit the weather. Such q temperature as the last
week has proved to be required the use of fanncls
nut IN very warm weather the infants ought to be
allowed about one garment, aud that pretty light

THE MEMBER of Congress from the +th
district Of this State, a short time ago, ac-
cording to the Mahoneites, was grip sacker
whose house in Virginia was a room in the
Custom House ir Petersburg, which he oc-
cupied free of expense. But now that he
has pocketed all the snubs and insults that he
has received from them, and proclaims him
lower of their brave and noble" leader, he
is q man after their own hearts and they
invite him to be their candidate for rc-elec-
ton. 1t is hard to tell which is worse Jor.
gensen or the Mahoneites.

THE MAHoNEITEs charge Mr. Massey
with treason and with having made dicker
with the democrats. Have they so soon
forgotten the treason of their master, who,
having been elected to the L. S. Senate as
''Virginian, a Southern man, and demo-
craft Immediately betrayed his State, his
section and his party, and by dicker with
the republicans gave them possession Of the
Senate in consideration of the disposal of
the federal patronage in Virginia? The
memory Of the Mahonetes is entirely too
short.

THE CITIZENS Of Danville are indignant
at the Mahoneites for putting negroes on
the police force of that city, but most people
think they are SO without sufficient reason :,
for from all accounts from that city it is
learned that it is with the Mahoneitcs alone
that the police will be likely to have any
thing to do. 1t makes no difference to peo-
pie who have enough self-respect to conduct
themselves properly when in the streets
whether policemen are white or black, as
they are never brought in contact with
them, and as it is said that all such people
in Danvillc are democrats the color of their
policemen should be a matter of no consc-
quence to them, however important it may
be to those who made such things as negro
policemen possible in Virginia.
