The chairman of the democratic CEN
tral committee of Michigan undertook
TO bulldoze two or three large manu-
featuring firm at South Bend, Ind. He
received a reply from them that he
will not forget for some time. Such
contemplate interference with the
rights of business men and others is
cbnract cteristic of the democratic party.
They were slave drivers so long, that
they think they can use the lash OH the
backs of men, who are free men in
more senses than they themselves ever
were. The party is composed of men
who never knew the meaning of free
dom or honesty, and they labor under
the delusion that the people all over
the country are of the same ilk az
themselves. 1t is certainly time that
they should have learned something
The war for the Union, which they

think should have learned them some.

takes and blunders of the democrats
makes it possible for the republican
party TO keep in power an indefinite
length of time. - Even in Crawford
county, they are trying the same tac-
ties, but they will find they have not
counted the cost, and that the boom
erang they are throwing will be apt to
bark their own shins Experience

The Late Mrs. Jane Perry Butler.

"Richland," the Columbia correspon-
dent of the Augusta Chronicle, speaking
of the News and Curriers' admirable de-
sign of securing and publishing sketches
of the experiences of Southern women
during the war, relates the following:
Many of your readers will reeollect the
instance of Gen. Buffers mother taking
the oath at Edge6eld Court House, and
her proud reply to her would be courte-
GUS foe. Mrs. Buffers grandfather was
q distinguished naval officer; her uncle,
Mathew Calbraiah Perry, was Commo-
dore, and her father was Commodore
Oliver Hazard Perry of Lake Erie fame.
Her. husbands father was gallant army
officer of the Revolution. Her husband
was captain in the regular army prior
to the late war and served his country
faithfully, whilst one of his brothers was
q United States Senator and another
Governor Of South Carolina. Mrs. But.
ler, being widow, found it necessary
for the proper transaction Of some legal
matters to take the hated oath. The
officer who presented her to the comman-
der of the post, thinking to win favor
for her with the little despot of an hour,
began to give him list of the distin-
guished men with whom she was allied.
The noble lady stopped him and said
II prefer to be known as the mother OF
Gen. M. G. Butler, Of the Confederate
army"

Hereditary Insanity.

Hereditary Insanity is the most terri.
BILE disease that can be transmitted from
parent to child. 1t often remains latent
and unsuspected, however, for genera
ton, or perhaps longer, and then only
manifest itself in single member of
household, and is set down to personal
idiosyncrasy. Like fire TO. gunpowdcr,
any calamity which appeals intensely to
the brain is liable to ignite tue fires of
madness. A strange case Of this kind is
reported from Halifax. One member of
the family, Roger Amer, is in Jail at Bos-
ton, awaiting bis trial for murder. This
so worked upon the brain of q married
sister that she had to be couveyd to lu.
natic asylum. Soon afterward the broth
er of the accused prisoner became in
cane at his residence near Digby, N. S..
and his malady has increased SO that he
also will have to be confined in an asy-
lum. In 4 little while Il younger sister
showed the same symptoms, and is now
a maniac. Thus three members of one
family have lost their reason through the
mental agony of having a brother accused
of murder. If they were sure of his in.
nocence one can scarcely conceive Of
their being thus affected. Even if they
have knowledge or belief of his guilt the
triple coincidence of brother and two
sisters becoming insane from the same
grief seems to point beyond doubt 10
hereditary predisposition. Possibly the
alleged murderer may also be insane and
his crime may have been the result OF
brain disease. At any rate his lawyers
will be able to make strong case for his
insanity if, in addition to the living mem
bers of his family who are now insane,
they can trace the disease back to his
father or mother or their families

February Skies.

1t is full dress with the planets, moon
and stars this month. Never was more
brilliant spectacle in the skies than is
presented now by the heavenly process
sion. Venus has been seen for month
sending her lovely rays through the deep
red glow of our wonderful sunsets. She
reigns supreme as evening star in the
West, as it is meet she should do, in the
month that contains the extra leap year
day. She reaches her declination Oh the
18th, being then IA degrees North of the
sunset point.
But while Venus reigns alone in the
West the East is filled with long pro-
cession of astronomical and NEUROLOGICAL
celebrities. First comes Saturn, the
father of them all, who shines with
steady and serene countenance between
the fiery Aldebaran and the Pleiades.
he is now at the most favorble point for
observation, being near the sun and
turned so that the opening between the
rings may be plainly seen. 1t will be
thirty years before such an opportunity
of examining him occurs again, and he
is therefore now the favorite cynosure of
astronomers.
Next to Saturn comes Jupiter, his royal
son, who outshines him completely, and
is far the most brilliant object in the
Western sky. Following him at re-
spectful distance, and little to the North,
is ruddy Mars, who has just passed one of
his most interesting and characteristic
stages-opposition. The earth is now
almost directly between him and the sun,
and the distance between him and the
earth is nearly 6O,OOo.OOO miles. He is
not particularly brilliant now, as he is al
most in aphelion, and we almost in peri
helian. Neptune, the outpost of our sys.
tenn, is evening star, but as he cannot be
seen without powerful telescope, he ls
of no particular interest to us. The
elusive Mercury is morning star, and you
may catch him if you can about the 18th,
when he will be visible, if at all, about
an hour before sunrise, near the South
ern horizon.
The moon is full on the 10th, near
midnight. She is then quite close to
Mars, and on the previous evening will
pay her respects to Jupiter in passing.
But not only are the planets at their
best this month the fixed stars also are
on parade. The gorgeous Orion, pre-
ceeded by the Pleiades and Hyades, and
followed by the glorious monarch of all,
Sirius, is overhead, South of the zenith.
The twins, Castor and Pollux, are not far
off, and Procyon still sustains his corner
of the giant triangle of which Sirius and
Betelgeuse are the other apices. Toward
the North, almost overhead, is Capella,
second only to Sirius in brightness, now
that Arcturus is gone into the West. The
Great Bear we have always with us, re-
yolving around his axle, Polaris.
