MIND IN MEDICAL SCIENCE.

The Boston mind" and "fath cures have
caused an uncommon sensation in England of
late. Even the stately London Times has
devoted one of its long and digniicd leaders to
the subject, and the London press generally has
delivered a sort of file fire. What puzzles our
Transatlantic cousins most is the apparent
reality of many of the cures recorded, and they
manifest surprise over this which justilies the
inference that few graduates in medicine find
their way into journalism in England Yet it is
true that even medical men often talk rs though
in their special education they had never been
taught TO understand the coordination of men
tai with physical processes. In critcising such
movements rs the Boston mind cure they too
commonly revert to the theories of our grand
mothers, forgetting the new light which
molern science has shed upon all such prob.
lens. Every successful doctor rs q matter of
course avails himself Of the influence of the
mind over the body in his practice. He does it
habitnally with all his nervous and hypochon-
driacal patients. He sooihes them he produces
marked physical effects through the medium of
negative indictments, he knows that he can
rely confidently upon the operation OF such
subterfuges and yet he can think of nothing
but folly to explain the mind cure.
1t shows how backward the study of practca
psychology is when so much wonder is ex-
hibited at tho phenomena of mind and faith
cures. Not only has psychology been neglected,
indeed but the history of medical science must
also have been studied to little purpose when
such general unfamiliarity with what ought to
be considered fundamental principles is shown
1t is perhaps in no way surprising that i'm
questionable and Eighty people on redis-
covering these venerable truths should jump to
all kinds of odd and fantastic conclusions but
medical men ought TO know better, and ii is not
little singular that 30 far as we are aware
none Of them have taken the trouble to point
out the entire simplicity of phenomena which
are just now being tortured into all manner OF

THE CANADIAN FISHERIES.

The peaceful agreement between lSe oi,'ou
States and Great Britain in regard TO the hsn-
cries is creditable to both Governments, Dut IL
is fair to observe that the suggestion came INST
from the British Government. Minister west
introduced the subject, in note, observing that
tho termination of the treaty in the middle OF
Tho wear would occasion much annoyance ana
nossib,v serious loss to individuals then ell
Gagged in prosecuting the fisheries III Canauiah
waters. He suggested on behalf OF his Govern
ment that a temporary extension untii january
I. without prejudice to the interests or claims
of either party in future negotiations, wouiu
avoid all this difficulty, because the operation
Of the agreement would then terminate at
time when none of the vessels owned ana
manned nv Americans would be in Canadian
waters.
Secretary Bayard'prompty accepted the srg-
oestion. and also stated that the United States
would consent to consider new treaty anu 10
onnoint q commission for that purpose. Inc
President has undertaken to lay the subject De-
fore Congress and to recommend the appoint
ment of a commission to inquire INTO the SUI
iect. and to settle the terms OF new treaty.
But when the matter comes up III Congress-
there is certain to be not little dlscuSSio"'
both regarding the conditions OF any contem-
plated agreement, and as to the carefully manu-
featured misrepresentation by when years "so
the adoption of the former treaty was secureu.
II is quite likely that Congress VIII think III, 1t
il authorizes the appointment OF commission
at all. to prescribe somewhat definitely the
terms upon which "a ne" negotiation m"S o'
| undertaken.

rvcrSs IN cOLLEGE SPORTS.

President McCosh has u practical method OF
testing the scholarship of college athletes. lie
has compiled list of twenty seven princeton
students who are officers and members OF loot
hall and baseball teams He finds where each
of these twenty scven students stands III the
six groups into which the classes are graded
according TO scholarship. Fifteen are in the
two lowest groups only two are III the second
croun: and ten in the third and fourth
rronps-well down in the form. All but seven
are in the lower half of the class and not one
has the first rank in scholarship. The presi-
dents practical inference Is that the hOnofs oil
the competitive games of the campus cannot be
won except by.those who devote great deal oil
time to exercise and professional training.
While he considers it necessary to encourage
cymnastic exercise and proper sports as pro-
motive of health aud manllncs', he does not
aoproye of excuses by watch scholarship and
study are persi'tently sacrificed.
These views are not likely to prove popular
among college students. The heroes OF the
class are the muscular men, who In the ball
field or on the rowing cours' strive to uphold
the honor of the college. Their names, "A
President Mccosh admits. are cheercd at the
public games and most frequently mentioncdi In
the college periodic u.s. Theirs is the sue
cess that appeals most directly to the
enthusiasm OF Youthful spirits. If they
make lnelgre use of opportunities for study
and are nearer the foot than the end OF the
form. they are readily consolcd by the applause
Of their fellows and the indulgence of almiring
relatives and friends. They do not envy the
high scholars. Their own success and notori-
for ln.a nf
Their friends at home arc as proud Of their
achievements in college sports as they would
be if these muscular boys excollcd in the
classics or in science. They have the alluring
excitement OF intercollegiate contests and ac-
auIre the reputation of being spirited. manly icl-
lows. who could push their way t. the head OF
the class if they were willing Ia make the
effort and who can certainly be depended upon
TO make a brave yht for success in the world.
The difficulty of regulating athletic sports
and restraining those excuses OF which Prcsi-
dent McCDsh complains is greatly increased by
the constant encouragement and undiscrininat-
ting praise which these heroes OF the campus
and the river receive ut home as well as AT col
legc The professors themselves know OF no
surer way of endearing Themselves 10 their stu
dents than by taking hearty interest IN class
and intercollegiate cOstests. Much courage
and not little tact are requisite, ii president
ATTEMPTS to impose limits upoa athletic sports
and to remind tine students that they ought not
TO be carried away by cnthu .iasn for the hon
ors of the field or the water, nor be tempted to
neglect the supreme business of their college
course-well- ligestel study and a systematic
and symmetrical training Of the mind.

THE PUNISHMENT or FISH.

The sentence of James ID. Fish, pronounced
Yesterday by Judge Benedict, was richly de-
served 1t is a warning, too, that will not 20
unheeded This decision of the court is final.
Fortunately there are not in the processes OF
the Federal courts the same opportunities for
DELAYS, stays of proceedings and appeals as i'll
our State courts. The Judge before whom a
case is tried sits on the bench when an appeal
is heard. and can explain his rulings and his
views of law to his colleagues before the final
adjudication is made. Then If the court III
banc agree there Is no further appeal.
OF course it is impossible to see gray-halred
man, whose long and apparently honorable
business career had led the community 20 re-
gard him with respect for many years, sent to
the Pcntentiary without a feeling of sorrow
and sympathy. But this should not blind us TO
the fact that he was guilty of grave crime in
misusing the funds of his bank. Whether he
wilrully intended to defraud innocent and con-
fiding people may be doubtful. That he
should, as president of bank, have exercised
extreme canton in the making of loans Is Ger
tain. That the funds of the Marine Bank were
grossly misused is clear He had fair trial and
the jury after long deliberatiOn found him
guilty on a large number OF the counts III the
Indictment. His punishment will be salutary
warning to officers of other financial insttu-
tions. 1t will make them more vigilant and
cautious and should go far to put an end to
| looseness in business methods.
1t is pity that Fish's partner in crime can
not share his punishment. Of the two he is the
guilticr, for he planned his great scheme OF
fraud with the cool cunning of the burglar who
plots to crack safe or force open vault

THE CUSTOM HOUSE CHANGES

President Cleveland has done many things
during his short term of office which merit
severe censure, but none which ought 10 De
more sharply rcbuked than his choice oi COL
lector for the Port of New-York. In no other
instance has he used the public service more
openly to repay obligations incurred rs Pres
idential candidate. The faint endeavor to
make it appear that Mr.. Edward l.. Hedden
was chosen as business man is An insult 10
the real business men of New-YOrk. 1t Is also
an insult to every citizen OF either party VINO
cares for ability and integrity IN the puOhc
service that this responsible and important po-
sition should be filed by a man known only as the
tool of Hubert o. Thompson and the t&ther-lh-
law of one of his associates in the S999 scan
dals. Ii would have been much more 10 the
credit of the President ii he had openly APP
ponted a ward politician, instead OF an I'M
known man. recommended by Thompson solely
because of the latter's ability to control the
natronaoe. The people have had enough OF
Thomson and his tools in the past and present
administration of the Public Works Depart
ment. If this kind of reckless, extravaganza
and scandalous administration Is TO be carried
into the Custom House, it Will be
sorry thing for the merchants OF New
York. 1t is barely possible that Mr.. Thompson
nav be disappointed in his man; but should
that proye true, no thanks will be due to the
President So far as Mr.. Cleveland Is con-
cerned, he has appointed Mr. Hedden Collector
simply because that gentleman Is Thompson 5
choice. and because the President was indebted
to this unsayory "boss" for his nomination at
Chicago.
If the President had any real desire "a
serve the cause of reform he would nave
named Mr. Burt or Mr.. TrelOar as Collector.
But he removes a faithful officer In the middle
| of his term without any reason, IN
| order to make a place for Mr.. Burt
with the plain purpose of Withdrawing atten-
ton from the other two appointments. Mr..
Burt was good officer before, and no doubt
will prove equally acceptable in the future.
But he is no Improvement on General Graham,
who is removed in the middle of his term. AS
| to the change in the Surveyors Office, no at
! tempt is made to ascrbe other than political
reasons for it. Surveyor Benedict. after thirty
five years experience in the Customs service,
is removed before the expiration of his term to
make place for the secretary OF the County
| Democracy organization, a person now serving
as Deputy County Clerk through the grace OF
| HILBERT 0. Thompson. After the use the public
service has been put to in other directions to
reward political workers there will not be any
| disappointment over these changes. But 1T is
time that an end was made to the cant about
| reform.

The fourth of the series of articles on Aora-
ham Lincoln from the pens of men who came
in direct personal relations with the great var
President is printed in this edition OF LIE
TRIBUNE. It's author is General James Is. ry'
who was Provost Marshal-General OF inc
United States, appointed to execute the Enrol
ment Act of 1868 enforcing military service
after the inadequacy the system OF voluntary
enlistment had been shown. General rvs
most interesting and valuable recollectlons
naturally are those which refer 10
Mr.. Lincons acts with reference
to the acquisitions for troops. How the once
tons urged by various States were met is nus,
trated in the recital of Mr.. Lincolns forceiui
logic with regard to Vermont and New-hamp-
shire. No paper on this subject seems to De
perfect without few examples of Mr.. Lincoln
unfailing bumor; but the figure drawn by Oen-
eral Fry is in its strongest lines that OF man
whose face reflected the seriousness OF deep
thoughtfulness, compelled by the grayest re-
sponsibilities ever assumed by President OF
the United States.
