likely to be hurtful III the extreme. 1t
is very noticeable fact that, while
what is called education has never
before been so widely diffused
among the masses as it is to-day.
nervousness, excitability, brain ex-
haustion and insanity are more preva-
lent than ever before -the two truths
not impossibly standing to each other
in the relation of cause and effect Not
that education is not good, but that we
do not yet properly conduct it.
In childhood and youth, too, the
brain is properly capable OF much
less amount of work than in adult
years. The brain is the last organ OF
the body to become mature-on an
average of five years-so that it is
younger than the rest of the body, and
in youth is even more delicate than is
the muscular system. When this latter
has become somewhat developed, and
the brain is necessary for self-preserva-
ton, it catches up what it has lost
in the race, and in those who are
aging, and whose bodies are sinking
to decay, if it has met with no mishap,
ripe and full, is at its best. The proper
amount of time must be allowed it for
development. Any attempt to force
a precocious growth is likely to be fol-
lowed by adult enfeeblement.
| Nutrition is a function of the tissues,
which, however, even with rich and
wholesome blood in the arteries in
tended to supply them, may in some
part of the organism become so ex-
hausted by overwork as to be unable
to appropriate it. The brain, when
sufficiently overworked, is incapable
Of recuperation by nutrition. In the
midst of plenty, it, so to speak, starves.
The symptoms then appearing are
mental agitation and loss of healthy
self-consciousness. The history OF
such a case is generally as follows
First, irritability. Then, sleeplessness,
resulting from an inability to stop
thinking either Of one thing or things
in general. Next, from overmastering
the will at night the mental uncon.
Probability extends into the day. Final.
ly, the thinking faculty or imagination
breaks wholly loose from the will and
asserts tor it's creations a reality in
dependent of and superior to that O.
healthy sense. This is nothing more
nor less than insanity. At any point
in the history the victims judgment
may easily become so vitiated, and his
will so overpowered, that hs co mmits
suicide, or does something in the
course, or as a consequence of doing
which death ensues. st. Louis Globe.

hARRiSON'S MENTORS.

The True Character of the Men Who
Made the Indiana Man President.
Hon." Matthew Stanley Quay is a
Republican United States Senator, the
head of the Republican party organ
ization, and Messrs. Clarkson and
Dudley are his lieutenants, recognized
representatives of the Republican
party acting for it under its authority.
To-the work of these three men it is
very largely indebted for its new lease
If power, and what they have done
already is fair indication OF what it
may be expected to do. The campaign
for the Presidency, conducted by this
trio, was so VIGOROUSLY corrupt that it
is not e-sy to be surprised at any thing
that develops concerning it, but it is
impossible for people, Republicans or
Democrats, who have any sense or de.
cency left, not to be shocked on learn
The Louisiana Democrat. [volume] (Alexandria, La.) 1845-1918, 1889-02-06

ing that Quay, Dudley and Garrison
conspired to bride an unfortunate deaf
mute to betray his employers and ben
efactors and to commit larceny as their
agent. The theft of mail lists and
other documents from the Prohibition
paper, the New York Voice, has been
fixed on the campaign committee by
the confessions of the clerks bribed to
do the stealing and by letters from
Dudley surrendered by them. The ac-
cessories of the committee in the theft
were only paid $50, but they were
promised Government places and more
money besides. Mr.. Benjamin Harri-
son, the most direct beneficiary of the
theft, will decide whether the promise
is to be fulfilled or not.
Another incident shows how his
party estimates him. He has just re-
ceived letter from Los Angeles, Cal,
from the members OF the "Murchi-
son" conspiracy, giving him the name
of the man who conceived the con-
spiracy and warning him that all the
others who may claim to have origin
ated it practice a fraud upon him,
upon the Republican party and upon
you, sir, if they come asking 'recogni-
ton [of1ice] because of such alleged
service"
1t is hard to imagine any thing more
base than the lie told the British Min
lister; more treacherous than the breach
of his confidence, or more scoundrelly
than the publication of the letter OBJ
tanned by the conspirators, as if it
were manly Americanism to induce a
foreigner by fraud and trickery to take
part in an American campaign. The
conspirators, however, believe that
they have deserved so we'll of Harrison
that they have only to convict
themselves of their villainy to
insure their reward. Instead OF
concealing their share in the
plot, they glory in it. Instead of leav-
ing the country to escape the scorn
and contempt of their fellow-citizens,
they court the applause of their fellow.
Republicans for an act of baseness
without precedent in the politics of the
United States, and to make fitting
climax for it all they write to the Re.
publican President-elect warning him
that the claims on his gratitude pre-
scented by other scoundrels for thi:
particular piece of scoundrelism d.
them an injustice!
With such coadjutors, such friends
such associates, such fellow-partisans

An idle word may be seemingly

melt the chains of human friendship,
that will burn to ashes many cherished
hopes, and blacken more fair names

AT least seventy per cent. OF the
troubles we meet with in ordinary life

them and try to see how bad they are.

in the employment of men, that
class of labor that is purely mental
commands higher price than does that
class where only physical strength is
wanted. One brain may design a
steam engine, but more than one is
necessary to build it. Hence, then,
among brain workers experience and
originality are factors OF success.
Neither can we gauge mans worth

Cinnamon en- Voyage Fed on Rice, Beans,
Orange-Peel aud ow-Chow.
The new line of Trans-Pacific steam
ers between Hong Kong aud Vancou-
YER, British Columbia, connecting
thence with San Francisco, has sig
nalized its establishment by reducing
it's rate for Chinese passengers from
$50 to $25. This rate includes food
during the voyage, which may last 80
days, and transportation over nearly
one-quarter of the circumference of the
earth. One of the ecently-arrived
steamers brought 1900 Chinese, and
in view of the low rate, the writer was
led to inquire of the steamship agent
if it were possible to properly feed the
immigrants during the 80 days at sea
and yet make a profit. His reply was
in the affirmative.
''But what sort of rations are fur
nished?" | asked.
Chiefly rice" he said. THAT is,
rice is the chief staple of Chinese
food at home and abroad, and if it is
properly cooked Chinaman will rare
ly grumble. But we take out a small
quantity of meat to cook with it. We
also take large quantities OF beams
red beans, white beans, black beans,
brown beans, every kind of bean that
| China produces, and beans are cheap
there. You would laugh to hear how
cheap. Then we furnish orange peel
for relish, of which the Chinese are
fond; also dried shrimps and a variety
of dried fish, and for an occasional bit
of dessert dried abalone. But the
thing we have to be the most particu-
lar about is the elbows.
"What are thOse-the sauces?"
Eyes, the chow elbows. We take out
25 different kinds of these elbows! II
seems as if every Chinaman has par.
ticular kind that he prefers. AS they
eat their rice and fish and beans, they
keep tasting these.
"Of course, we got them cheap in
Hong Kong. They don't cost like
Worcestershire sauce. Altogether these
immigrants get as good TODD on ship
board as they get at home; in fact they
often fat up with us.
Nov, what do you suppose it cos

JAPAN'S SOVEREIGN.
The Mikado's Ancestry, His Personal Ap
pearance and His Habits.

The Mikado's Ancestry, His Personal APP
pearance and His Habits.
The Mikado has the bluest blood OF
any ruler on the face of the earth. The
present dynasty of Japan runs back to
the gods and His Imperial Majesty is
the 12lst Emperor of Japan. The
Japanese have their history and their
mythology, and the present Emperor
comes from Jimmu Tenno, who was the
first Mikado, and who ruled Japan $50
years before Christ was born. This
man was descendant of the sun god
dess, and Mutsuhito, the present En-
peror, traces his descent directly from
him. Japanese history gives the story
of each of the 120 Emperors between
the two, and if you will think a moment
you will see how far back $50 B. C. is.
This was before Rome had become an
empire England was unknown even
to the Romans, and hundreds OF
years were yet to elapse be-
fore Caesar penetrated Gaul. The.
present Emperor was born at Kiota,
November 8, 1852. He was declared
heir-apparent to the throne when he
was eight years old, and he succeeded
on the death of his father in 1867. He
was crowned in 1868 and was married
at the age of seventeen in 1869.
His Imperial Majesty is now thirty
eight years old. Let me tell you how
he looks. He is taller than the aver
age Japanese and his appearance is
not half as imposing now as when he
wore the rich Japanese costumes and
sat cross-legged on his mats of state.
He has dark brown cafe-au-lait COM
plexion and his eyes, which look out
through almond Sits, are of a brill
liant black. His hair is very thick
and he parts it in European style. It
is combed we'll up from a good fore
head and His Majesty's eyebrows
have the decided arch which Is indica-
tive of japanese beauty. His nose is
large and inclined to flatness. 1t has
the wide nostrils OF the Japanese and
His Maj esty's lips are thick. he Is OF
medium size, but is inclined to stoop,
which l imagine may come from the
earlier part of his life having beer
spent in sitting upon the floor. He
wears a mustache and chin whisker:
and these, like those of most of hi
race, are thin. The Court Chamber
lain tells me that for the past sixteen
years he has worn nothing but Europe
an clothes, and has to a large exten
adopted European ways. His dres
' is that of General OF tn
army, and he takes great prid
in military matters. He review
+ his troops several times year and
o thoroughly up in the organization
j his armies. When he goes out to rid
> he is always accompanied by his in
perial guards, and he has lately pu
y chased several new state carriage

Why Is 1t that your pretty lips
Are parted in that merry smile?
Why hide your dainty flnger-tips
Within that ugly muff meanwhile!
TITS strange in looking on your face
For modern man like me TO know
He's gazing at his grandmamma,
Who lived one hundred years ago.
Suppose, while you sit smiling there.
You tell me, as I'd like you to,
The thought that still from year to year
So pleases and amuses you.
Or, better, tell me Of your life
It's Joys and laughter, tears and woe;
Ithnk they must have had them then
As now, one hundred years ago.
'Twould be a pleasant thing to hear
You tell OF all that happened then,
About your lovers and your friends
Among that ancient race Of men.

But. after all. l do not know

Republican Fine-Workers.

The complaint of Funk & Wagnalls,
publishers of the Prohibition organ
called the Voice, charges upon Quay,
Clarkson and Dudley the theft of that
journals subscription lists, for pur-
poses of the recent campaign. The
exposure covers nine columns of the
Voice, and alleges that Dudley, Clark
son and Quay bribed employees of the
Voice with money, and promised them
positions under the Government if
Harrison should win. These allega-
tons, if brought home, would have
two good effects. 1t is we'll, in the
first place, that many proofs of Dud-
ley's villainy should be forthcoming
in order that the people should aban-
don the idea that Dudley is prosecuted
for political reasons. He has been a
rogue since 1880, and the hypocrites
of the Republican party, like Har.
rison, Sherman, Hoar, Boutwell, and
the whole canting tribe, have honored
him for it. The more valiant he grew
as briber and suborner the farther
back he walked into the council cham
bers of the party whose corruption
funds he discussed. 1t is we'll, in the
second place, that the gap should
widen between the Republican and
Prohibition parties. If The Voice
should convict Quay, Clarkson and
Dudley of the crime now charged il
would be difficult for the bribers tt
stay in authority for more than ONT
term. The corruption which has Sc
in is too gross and palpable to be tol
Grated for the twenty years OF which
