ANNUAL FISH LETTER.

We again offer Our services to ou1
friends, the North Carolina Fishermen,
tor the sale of their salt fish
For the past twenty years we have
been the largest receivers, and conse-
quently the largest distributors, of fish
Ill any Southern market, and naturally
buyers seek Us as source of supply.
The stock Of 1898 Carolina Herrings
OH the Richmond market is very large
of roe, but comparatively small! of cut
a1d gross; we therefore advise our
friends not to pack roe herrings, as
there is no demand for them, but to
con6ne themselves to cut and gross in
the proportion of, say, three-quarters
cut and one-quarter gross. All fish
should be thoroughly cured and packed
with Turk S Island Salt, and in pickle
tight coopcragc, and with only enough
pickle to keep the fish from becoming
rusty.
Great care should be taken about
Cooperage. Let your barrels be of good
SIES diIu WCII IltQC, anu INC hoops
thoroughly driven and nailed. Eastern
packages are now preferred to the old
Carolina barrels, and we advise our
friends to use new Eastern packages
exclusively. It is almost impossible to
sell fish packed i'll the old style n. c.
cooDcragc.
As usual we will remit the rrOCeedS
of all sales i'll cash.
About tho 18th Of March our Spring
Circular, for distribution among the
buyers of Herrings, will be ready for

your name inserted i'll this circular,
please advise us by the 22d of March.

will have prompt attention.

To call and examine his beautiful goods

Treatment of the Insane.

Treatment of the Insane.
Ministering to minds diseased is one
Of thc most difficult and, as at present
managed, the most hopeless tasks. Ex-
listing conditions are due largely to
circumstances over which the friends
OF the unfortunate and the general
public have no control. But, all the
same, these conditions work directly
against the patients recovery and
serve to increase the tendency tC
vagarics in minds only slightly unset
tied 1t is said by medical and mental
scientists that there is no such thing
as a perfectly balanced intellect
Every human being has some lido
syncrasy, some flaw in the construc.
ton, some weak spot that under undue
pressure will give way and reduce the
victim to state of insanity or hope
less cranl1iness. The first and indis-
Pensable requirement for persons af-
fliCted with mental unsoundness is a
situation entirely apart from others
similarly affected. Quartering in
sane patients in wards and permit
ting free intercourse among those
given to all sorts of eccentricities are.
in the opinion of the New York Ledg-
err, unquestionably the worst folly of
which the caretakers of these people
can be guilty. BY constant asso-
citation and daily interchange of
thought and opinion these unbal-
Gnced minds have every oppor-
tunity to absorb more that is
detrimental and to learn thousands of
untaught, they would never have
dreamed of. An unsettled brain is
fertile ground for the growth of the
rank weeds of evil thought and desire,
and these creatures, in almost all
cases persons of exceedingly active
and nervous temperaments, are simply
undergoing process of education that
is likely to destroy whatever healthy
and natural brain-tissue their mis-
fortunes may have left them. Thrown
constantly in the way of the lowest
and most abandoned forms of mind
disease, it is perfectly natural that
they should become familiar with it,
and, as they are idle and easily at
tractcd by things new and strange,
they are almost certain to grow worse
instead of better. Much the better
plan, in place Of this herding together
of the insane, as isgenerally practiced,
would be some arrangement by which
each individual case could have special
treatment carefully adapted to the
needs Of that particular case. Let the
highly nervous or excitabl person be
in charge of some thoughtful, far-see-
ing nurse or physician, one who would
be content to let nature do some.
thing, and would, instead of forcing,
nagging and worrying the patient,
seek to remove all irritating causes
and conditions and give the over
strained nerves the opportunity tc re-
gain their normal strength.
