ILLNESS OF SENATOR STANFoRD.-Re-
ports are published from Europe, where he
has been travelling for some time, that Mr..
Leland Stanford, the millionaire, and U. S.
Senator from California is the victim of an
extraordinary disease. He cannot sleep
when he wants to, aud cannot keep awake
when he wants to, but is pe.petually oscil-
laing between the two conditions. He
does not sleep more than q minute or two
at time, and his eyes do not remain open
or his senses remain active for more than
the same length of time. He does not walk
alone, for if he tried it he would be sure to
fall, the somnolence coming upon him with
out notice. Sticking pins in him has 90 ef-
feet. If he talks he may get through with
few sentences and then be cut off'in the
midst of an unfinished word, but when he
awakeps to consciousness again he can re-
sumo his conversation precisely where he
left off He suffers no pain.

A TARIFF reformer asked protectionist
the other day why it is that the smallest
wages are paid In the most protected indus
tries {? The only answer he received was
that bic question was silly, and that lem
ployers who make large profits by the tariff
have not the assurance to pinch their EN-
ployes." And yet that nothing is more
common than such pinching is proved by
the constant strikes of the employees referred
10 against reductions in their wages.

WITH HUNDREDS of millions for pensions,
and more derived by the operation of the
tariff. of all of which the South pays her full
share, falling annually into the pockets OF
the North, while little OF it ever returns 10
the South, is it any wonder that the wealth
of the latter section is not equal to that Of
the former? Aud yet even now, quarter OF
a century sf or the war, there is hardly a
pension claim rejected by a northern com.
missioner OF pensions, the payment of which
does not receive the unanimous support OF
the southern members of Congress, lest their
failure to do so be considered in the North

If THE lyrchng OF negro for the inhn'

murder of a white man in the sparsely set
tied parts of the South, be indicative OF the
sem-bal barous condition of the people of

many of the newspaper ard magazine writ

the people of the North is indicated by a
deliberately arranged prize fight, in popu
lous portion of that section, between two
white woman, on Sunday morning, and in
the presepce of large number Of admiring
spectators? The South is the poorer Sec

In TIRE more radical and South hating
parts Of the North the republican managers
are attempting to make party capital out OF
that murderous old incendiary, John Brown,
and that slsuderer of the people of the

Beecher Stowe. 1t is poor cause that has
to employ such agencies to further its ends
but they tend greatly to maintain the solid
