John j. Dixon was recently released
by a court order from Wards Insane
Asylum. New York, where he had been
uniustly confined. He says he could
recruit a target company Of other a
men from the same asylum" Though
this may be the language Of exaggeration.
1t still gives rise to the painful impress
sion that many persons OF sound reason
are thrust into insane asYlums to get nd
Of them, ia order to secure property, or
for some equally base purpose, In com
naenting upon the case. the Star well

"As these ssytums are generally 5on.

MN not to become insane after q few
months confinement in one Of them.
The sense OF wrong lone him, the seclu-
sion from friends, the absence OF Gus
tomary occu~ patIons, the total change Of
habits of living, the association with
insane people, the terrible thought that
release may be impossible-all would
conspire to destroy the sanity Of the
strongest mind"
An occasional visit of a commission OF
inspection to the different insane asylums
would seem to be entirely proper.

On the floor OF the House, toward the
end OF the last session of Congress, Jay
HubbeIl approached John White, the
sole Republican Representative from
Kentucky, and in s meuacing manner
said: II will beat you, sir l vii! beat
you p This threat was launched because
White had dared to oppose the wishes OF
the imperious Hubbell. White invited
Hubbell to do his worst. He became
the candidate of the Republicans of his
district as their first and only choice.
Daring the canvass, which he conducted
personally on the stump, White fire.
quently referred to Hubbell's threat, and
appealed from the dictator to the people,
at the same time de~nouncing Hubbeii
and his methods. Although opposed by
Matt. Adams, an able and popular Dem
ocrat, White was elected by a decisive
majority, hundreds of Democrats giving
him their votes as the most direct way to
rebuke Hubbell and the methods he in
troduced into the canvass. In pro-
nounced Republican districts all over the
country the party was beaten on Hub
BELLS account, but here is a Republican
elected in a Democratic district to re-

A reporter Of the Virginia Chronicle,
who has paid a visit to that institution,
writes as follows: The inmates Of the
prison now number lila falling off of
about fifty within the past two years.
Among the prisoners are about a score of
Cinnamon, in for nearly every crime in
the calendar The confinement and ruu-
tine seem to affect Them less unpleasantiy
than the rest of the poor devils, white and
black. John enjoys good food and the
certainty of getting it. The small cells,
which are like sardlne boxes to the Others,
are palatlaI in their dimensions to the
heather.
None Of the ~convicts in the Carson
stronghold are what might be called pro-
fesslonais. Most of them are rough
players'-that is, men who, being broke
and desperate, stopped stages, robbed
houses and the like. Many are men who,
as the result Of t. quarrel, manned or
killed their antagonists, and committed
the first crime OF their lives. Whisky has
sent its full quota. There are II prison
ers under life sentences. The robbers of
Wells, Fargo Il CO. stages are severely
dealt with. They get from IA to 20 years,
and the express company sees to it that
very few of them regain their liberty
through pardon. 1t is noticeable that the
men suffering the longest terms of i'm
prlsonment are the best behaved. The
greatest trouble Is given by comparatively
petty offenders ia for Il year or two. 1t is
worthy of remark that while under Warden
Garrard, punishment has been rarer than
under any previous administration, the
discipline has never been SO good. He
has evidently recognized the fact that the
prisoners are human beings and not wild
beasts, to be dashed into submission.

Old miners have a great respect for the
rats Of the lower levels. They neither
kill the rats nor suffer them to be killed
BY green hands. In the first place, we're
there no other reason, a dead rat left IN
derground would scent up a whole level,
and, in the second place, the living rats
devour any bones, scraps Of meat or frag-
ments Of other food left in the mine which
would, by their decay, vltlate the air, gen.
orally hot and unpleasant at best. Rats
also give warning when q cave is about to
occur. They feel the pressure of the set
ting ground, even before the cracking Of
the timbers Is heard, and come forth upon
the floors and scamper uneasily about by
scores.
For these and other reasons the miners
have a friendly feeling towards the rats,
feeding and protecting them. In nearly
every mine the men have one or more of
the little animals as pets, and these are
quite tame, coming out of their holes to
be fed at lunch time.
When rats come into a new drift or
cTosscut it is considered a good sign-i5
thought to mean that the men will strike
ore. The other day, while the men were
at work in the face Of the new west cross
cut on the 2700 level of the Sierra Nevada
mine, a rat came in to them, travelling
along the line of the compressed air pipe.
When the little rodent was seen some Of
the new hands wanted TO kill it, but the
old miners would not allow it to be hurt.
They said it would bring luck to the cross
cut. So they fixed up in the roof of the
drift a box as a house for the rat and
placed food near at hand, in order that it
might find its new quarters profitable as
well as comfortable.
There is much talk among the miners
about the coming of this rat, and the men
in the new crosscut are very proud Of it,
and have high hopes OF account Of its
presence. Woe unto the man who shall

OR GIRLS.

In the North American Review for
December Elizabeth Cady Stanton has
an article on 1.-THE Health Of American
Women" which all women, especially
mothers, should read. She thinks that
too much is put upon young women, and
that for mature women there Is not
enough hope and independent action
given them. She believes that all
women should be so educated as to be
ipdependant of the world-that is, that
every woman should be so educated
that, like a man. she should be able to
earn her own living in case OF necessity
or choice. and that her qualifications
should be recognized with the same fair
ness that mans abilities are. Finally
she believes that the health Of American
women Is broken down oftener by too
much contact with the chair than from
any other cause. Still, while she would
make women work, she would not con
fine them to that ~ain.less round OF keep
ing house, where one day is just like
another. until hope dies. This is sensi-
Bile talk. and should be the rule both for
men and women. As years 90 by the
need Of such accomplishments as shall
make both men and women entirely in
dependent will be more and more felt IN
America. At present American women
are either dolls or slaves, and a real
woman's nature revolts from the one as
much as from the ether. At present,
from the great crowd, It is enough for a
girl to get a husband, and enough for a
wife to see to her home and fulfill the
social requirements Of her sphere. When
trouble comes she is un~prepared for it,
and if the necessity Tor her to make her
own living is forced upon her, the world,
by I british, hereditary meanness, pre-
scribes her to a choice from only a few
occupations. This is all wrong, and
should be changed. and it is for women
to make the change. Women as a rule
are far less charitable toward each other
than men are toward them. Women are
more prone to believe evil Of their sister
women thar men are. This is probably
due to the fact that women abhor evil
more than men do; but this should not
make them unjust. Another thing is
the tyranny of social customs, Women
are natural or educated aristocrats, and
to be familiar with some one who is
not in our set worries q woman more
thar can be imagined until one watches
the performance. Ii the mothers OF this
country would take the initiative, and
generally bring up their girls on the
theory that before mother and daughter
are separated by any wife-seeker the girl
shall be made superior to distress by her
accomplishments, the trouble would be-
gin to be remedied. With the acquiring
OF the accomplishments there should
also be an independence taught which
would be enough to make the woman
brave enough to do her duty, no matter
who or what might stand in the way.
With that accomplished, girls would not
get married until they found the right
man, and, married or single, would, so
long as health was given them, every day
laugh fate to scorn.

Our State SanatOrs

The editor of the Kent NeCs was in Annapolis
last week and gives in his late issue an interest
ing sketch of the State Senators. Of the Repub-
licans in the Senate he says:
"Upon the Republican side of the chamber the
most conspicuous parsonage is the Hon. Lewis H.
Steiner, of Frederick. He is an excellent speaker
of quick wit, and apparently man of high spirit
and noblest impulse.
Next, we should name DR.. T. NJ. Lancaster,
of Charles. He is said to be one of the most pop
ular members of the Senate, esteemed alike by re-
pubicans and democrats, for his many excellent
qualities of head and heart.
"Hon. Joseph S. Allston, of St. Mary's, is
young man of marked ability, doubtless the best
speaker on his side of the chamber, and 5cAS5ffg-
the old "mother county" must be represented
by republican, it is to be hoped that such an one
as Senator Alston may be selected, rs his ability
guarantees the taking care of his county's best
interest while the State is the gamer by his coun
sells.
"Hon VIM. Brace, of Allegany is also quite a
young man, and very good speaker, and
venture will "haye his say about as often as the
next one.
"Hon. J. Davis Clark of Talbot, makes no pre-
tensions to oratory, but is popular gentleman
and takes an active interest in every measure
coming before the Senate.
"Hon Joseph H. w. Farrow, of Washington, is
earnest in speech and active in effort for the cause
he espouses. He claims also to be liberal in poll
tics but sometimes will vote against good meas
if it cannot be utilized to his own party profit.
This also may be said of Messrs Steiner, Brace,
Allen, and others on that side of the House, but
take the republican members as whole they are
of more than average ability for men even in this
exalted station"

FORTY-SEvENTH CONGRESS.

In the United States Senate on Monday the APP
portionment bill was reported from the Census
Committee, but consideration of it was delayed
Mr.. Call offered resolution declaring that a
gress of the American nations would be wise and
beneficial. The bill to place General Grant on the
retired list of the army debated at length.
In the House of Representatives Mr.. Hewitt
made personal explanation, that the of his
name by Shpherd in connection with the Peru
Wan Company, was entirely unauthorized. Among
the bills introduced was one requiring the govern
ment to redeem defaced coin at its face value and
another providing that all public buildings shall
be constructed of material found in the State
where the buildings are to be erected. The bills
to promote tho efficiency of tho life saving service,
and to return to Japan the Japanese idemn;ty
fund, were passed The House agreed to consider
the Chinese Immi grafton bill on the second Tues
day in March. ~ =
In the Senate on Tuesday a resolution of the
New York legislature was presented praying for a
head-mOney tax upon immigrants; also a me-
mortal asking better treatment for the Indians.
The House Apportionment bill was passed with
out amendment. The resolution declaring that
the Arrears of Pensions act should not be repealed
was laid upon the table. SIS
In the House of Representatives an amendment
to the Postofice Appropriation bill was adopted
providing that railroads shall carry the mails
upon their fastest trains or lose so percent of the
compensation. Amendments to prevent frauds in
the star-rout contracts were discussed but with
out reaching final action, the House adjourned to
Thursday.
In the Senate on Thursday the bill retiring Gen.
Grant with the pay of general in the army was
passed with an amendment that it should not af-
feet the number of retired officers allowed under
the present law joint resolution was passed
empowering the Secretary of War to issue rations
and clothing to the sufferers by the floods on the
Lower Mississippi, the amount not to exceed
100000.
The House was engaged in committee of the
whole the larger portion of the day in the discus
sion on the Postofice Appropriation BILL Num-
erous amendments offered and voted down.
The committee finally rose pending further action
and passed the Senate concurrent resolutions ap-
prOpriating 100000 for supplies to the sufferers
by the Mississippi floods.
