ACompleN Thing.

There are some thousands of different
pieces in a piano, and it is nothing short
of the marvellous that the ingenuity OF
man succeeds in harmonizing and com
bining so many minute and delicate
parts into one coherent whole, so that
each part hears a valuable relation to-
ward every other. Some makers sue
coed better than others in this compli-
Gated study, and foremost among the
best makers will always be found the
Emerson Piano Company, of Boston.

SCIENTISTS SURRENDER.

Conclusions were reached by profound
conclave few days ago which must have
been consoling to the departed spirit OF DR..
Mesmer. At Birmingham, England, was
held a congress OF the British Medical
association. This has been long recognized
as one OF the most cautiously conservative
bodies In the world. It is famed for the
extreme elaboration of its methods. BY
organizations that pride themselves with
excepting up with the procession" this Brit
ish society has been twitted with being
''slow and plodding." 1t is VIGOROUSLY
suspicious of innovations and new discov-
cries.
But at the late Birmingham congress the
demand for an investigation of hypnotism,
which has been sturdily resisted for years,
became irresistible. and the subject was
taken up and became the chief object of
discussion. Reports of recent investiga-
tons by men of the highest professional
standing in France. Germany and Italy,
with their emulation of startling demon
STATIONS, could not be pooh-poohed or ig-
nored.
Three questions were presented and ex-
haustively debated: Has hypnotism in
reality the characteristics ascribed to it by
its practitioners Does 1t injuriously affect
those who are subject 10 its inhuencef Is
It likely 10 prove of use either as curative
agent or for anesthetic purposesf On an
affirmative answer 10 the first question
there was but little diversity of opinion.
The answer was clear and emphatic The
alleged facts as TO hypnotic phenomena
were uneGuivocally accepted. This is all
the more extraordinary because il is d.
rect reversal of the rejection by this and
similar bodies as to like results of similar
experiments by Mesmer and his followers,
which contrary conclusions have been often
reiterated during more than half century.
Now on the highest and most conserva.
tive authority hypnotism-which is but
another name for mesmerism--is accorded
a rank among matters entitled to scientific
record. On the second question the an.
swer was also affirmative. They decided
that hypnotism is injurious TO those who
are subjected to its influence. The after
effects 'are of q most serious nature"
They cause disturbance OF mental bal
ance" and lead to q serious dissipation of
nerve energy" Frequent repetiuons sin
volye deterioration of brain and nerve

Immensely More Mischief than II Gem
orally Suspected.

Dr.. King, the eminent medical writer, IN
learned disquisition on our national com.

The great quantity of cathartic pills, etc,
which are annually swallowed by the people OF
this country has been productive of immensely
more mischief than is generally suspected.
True, the physic unloads the bowels, but in so
doing its action tends to diminish the tone OF
the intestines; so that, instead of removing the
costiyeness, it aggravates it, leaving the bowels
In more torpid condition.

raignment anticipates, viz: instead of being
powerful mineral purgative, it is . mild vege-
table laxative, that, owing to its solvent and
gentle stimulating properties, is so certain re-
lief in constipation that it has been given away
to hundreds, not to be paid for unless it was OF

We print this morning most interesting
interview with Admiral Brown, of the
charleston" concerning the status of po-
litical affairs in the Hawaiian islands. It
is plain that the situation is growing more
and more serious and that the pitiful farce
called . government must in time
collapse. There is, indeed, no ikeli-
hood OF an immediate change for
the great powers are united in wish to
maintain for the present Hawaiian auton-
omy; but the final outcome, though post
poned. is none the less certain. And when
It comes. the United States will have to
step in and either annex the islands or in
some other way assume control of them.
Many considerations make this neces-
sary. A large proportion of the capital en-
ployed In the islands is American. The
trade Of the country Is largely with the
United States, and its maintenance is essen
tial to several very large industries in oper-
alton upon the Pacific Coast. The
islands. too, lie at our western door.
affording point of immense Importance
in strategic sense. We must have the
islands il for no other purpose than to pre-
vent their falling into the possession of
some country which might at some future
time quarrel with us.
Possession of the islands will add another
to our set Of standing problems" State
hood Is ont of the question since the peo-
pie are not fit for it. The distance is too
remote and the interests totally dissimilar
from those which bind the states of
the Union together. A protector
ate is new thing with US,
and outside our scheme of
government; and it would not do to hold
the country in q permanent territorial
relation. Really. it is difficult to determine
just how we are to take care of the islands,
though it is evident that we must do it in
time. 1t is manifest destiny and cannot
be avoided

The Philadelphia Ledger argues strongly
against submission 10 a caucus decision in re-
gard to the details of legislation. The Ledger is
right. party caucus is necessary and proper
as preliminary to organization, and is perhaps
necessary in respect TO arranging the order in
which bills shall be taken up and considered,
but q conscientious legislator should allow
nothing to stand between his conscience aud
his actions on matters Of principle or in cary
ing out the pledges made by his party or him
sell. Under the caucus system laws may be
enacted which are condemned by the judgment
OF nearly three-fourths Of the body by which
they are passed. For instance, with 100 of one
party and AZ of the other in a Legislative body,
81 OF the hundred may commit their number to
a measure which the other 49 and the entire AZ
OF the other tide are opposed, and this 81 pass a
law which e6 honestly believe to be injurious to
the country

PATHETIC INSPIRATION.

The presence of the Charleston in our
harbor, and the evident effect upon pub
lie sentiment resulting from study of
her strength and power. have an unmis-
taxable tendency to stimulate patriotic
feeling. beyond the protective object
and capacity of the vessel. the mind OF the
beholder extends to the free and consider
ate government of whose power and will
to protect its citizens this splendid and
powerful cruiser is an emblem and an
evidence.
And from such reflections the mind
turns with contempt TO the wretched
carpers and chronic grumblers, who for
want OF a worthy excuse, condemn the
government for the necessary expendi-
lures for this and similar purposes. If
people of this disposition had their way.
our country would either have no navy or
such as it might possess would be COM
posed of graceless tubs; public buildings
would be constructed without regard for
elegance or architectural symmetry, and all
expenditures would be controlled with sole
reference to unadorned utility.
For government controlled by such
considerations some degree OF respect or
liberation might survive in the breasts of its
people, but fervency OF admiration and the
higher inspirations of enthnsed patriotism
would be lacking 1t is as though pros

should give no thought to anything but
the making and saving OF money, and
should persist in housing his refined and
ambitious family with sole regard for COM
fort and none for elegance or beauty.
To the fullest extent that it can be
afforded without inhicting unnecessary
burdens of taxation, the people of the
United States will approve and will be
benefited by liberal appropriations
for a creditable navy. and for ele-
CANT government buildings, and
for monuments to great achievements and
statues to.eminent patriots. All of these
will serve as constant reminders of the
power, the grandeur. the protecting care of
the government, and of the refinement,
culture and taste of the people. It will i'm
press the fact that We are not nation of
Gradgrinds. and will serve to avert pos
sible degeneration in that direction.
What is needed in this country is not
simply patient, plodding, submissive.
tolerating patriotism. but lofty. inspired,
enthusiastic love and admiration for a gov
eminent which not only protects but
adorns and beauties our native land.

For several weeks General Palmer, Demo-
cratic candidate for u s. senator from Illinois,
has been grandiloquently challenging some Re-
publican to joint discussion of the issues OF
the day. At last Congressman Mason, of
Chicago, who has been nominated for re-elec-
ton, accepted the challenge. And thereupon
General Palmer has cEawfshed, insisting that he
can only meet a candidate Endorsed by the
Republican party for the same Office he is run
ming for. He should have made this quaIfea-
ton al the outset He knew that the Republi-
cans had made no nomination for Senator, had
lett the field open for all corners, aud proposed
to adhere 20 that programme. 1t is sad to see

j. W. Townsend, the colorsd Recorder of the
General Laad Office, utters the following strong
language in the course of an appeal for the pas
sage OF the federal election bill: The negroes
are not seeking fayors from the Southern white
people They are seeking Justice from the gov
eminent which they helped to save, and which
these wealthy, powerful and conservative
white people did their utmost to destroys
government which magnanimousiy gave to its
enemies right to participate in its administra-
ton. 1t comes with bad grace from these
benefciaries of Northern generosity and mag
nanimity to dictate the terms upon which the
negroes, their equals in law, shall come into
possession of their rights"
