 At the annual commencement of the Hospital College of Medicine of Louis vile, Ky, Prof. Dudley Reynolds deliver ed an address to the graduating students, in which he took strong ground against the use of tobacco. It is a well-known fact that tobacco deranges the digestion and poisons the nerve centers of majority of the male members of the human family. A species of blindness, not complete, but partial blindness, sufficiently great in ex- tent to destroy the reading of ordinary type, results from the continued and ex- cessive use of tobacco. Careful investiga- tions have led to the discovery that the form of tobacco habit, known as smoking. produces the so-called amblyopia, This form of amblyopia is precisely identical in all respects with that produced from the excessive use of alcohol Both are incur able. l know a number of persons in Louisville who are now practically blind from the excessive use of tobacco. A lady 1n Portland was forced to admit she had been secret smoker of tobacco for thirty years. On abandoning this habit the further progress of her blindness ceased. but there is little or no hope of her regain ing that power of perception which she he'Nt "ll llOaeiy lOSt oluOKlnG LODaCC0 has never been known to result beneficially to any person in the world.

STAFFORD SPRINGS. CONN. JUNE II. 1885.

General Sherman was once asked why he and Sheridan alwayst acknowledged Grant as their leader and quickly respond ed aBec iuse, while could map out a dozen plans for q campaign, every one of which Sheridan would swear he could fight out to victory, neither he nor I could tell which of the plans was the best one but Grant, who simply sat and listened and smoked while we had been talking over the maps, would at the cad of our talking tell which was the best plan, and in doz- en or~two words the reason of his decision, and then it would be all so clear to rs that he was right that Sheridan and would look at each other and wonder why we hadn't seen the advantage of it our selves" General Sherman, on sthe same occasion expressed the opinion that Grant is the. greatest commander of modern times, and with him he classes only Ma poleon, Wellington and Moltke.f 8s Y

The Wide Awake.

D. Lothrop's publications for
"our young folks" stand apart from
ordinary child literature, as heal
thy, wholesome brain tonic.
Conspicuous among these is the
wide Awake" Chat is no mis-
nomer) with its stories of thrilling
adventure, that are signally free
from the weird, ghoulish fantasies,
that beget feverish Imagination
and an abnormal thirst for unheal-
thy fiction, its artistic illustrations
and its unfailing store of humor.
The Christmas number with its
beautifully Illuminated frontis-
piece, its autograph signatures Of
the various contributors, its cata-
logue of premiums, is but the a.
vaunt courier of the twelve gems of
literature and art for 1885, in store
for the Wide Quake boys and girls,
who cannot afford to be without it,
even if sacrifice must be made in
some other quarter to secure it.
We venture there isn't boy in
Christendom that has just merged
from the "kilt" into the trouser
stage, who will not see a touch Of
nature in "Bob's Petticoats" and
feel his own blood grow not at men
ton of "Sweet Sarah Jane"
If all the little folks in the world
could read the Wide Awake, we are
very sure the next generation of
big folks would be the wiser and
better for it. Price Is cents a

Our City Government.

Volumes might be written on
the late city election and change
of administration but despairing
of doing the subject justice, we
must pass it for the present with a
casual remark or two.
That the people generally were
surprised at the turn of affairs on
the incoming of the new Council,
Monday night, does not half ex-
press it; and among the greatest
surprises was the displacement of
Capt. Mehen from the head of the
police force.
Without any disparagement to
his successor, it is no extrava-
gance to say that the substantial
law-and-order loving citizens gen,
orally, regarded Capt. Mehen's re-
tirement as a public calamity,
while the lawless classes as gener-
ally hailed the event with clamor-
Gus delight.
1t is to be hoped that the fears
OF Ine FORMER may not D3 foallZed,
nor the delight of the latter be long
enjoyed, And we are frank to say
that if Capt. Beckwith shall prove
as faithful and efficient as Chief of
Police as he has in the past as
Jailor, and Deputy Sheriff, the
uneasiness of the one class and the
wicked hopes of the other will
alike be short lived.
AS to the new Recorder, if he
shall prove terror to evil doors,
we are sure there will be none
more ready to commend and up
hold than those who most opposed
his election.
AS it is a new deal pretty much
all around, let US Loyalty wait and
see what we shall see.
