Recent discoveries have demonstrated that
all the organs OF the body are under the CON
troll of the nerve centers, located In or near
the base of the brain, and that when these are
deranged the organs which they supply with
nerve fluid are also deranged. When IL Is re-
membered that o serious Injury to tho spinal
cord will cause paralysis OF the body below
the injured point, because the nerve force IL
prevented by tho injury from reaching the
paralyzed portion, it will be understood how
the arrangement OF the nerve centers will
cause the arrangement of the various organs
which they supply witt nerve force.
TwO-thirdS of chronic diseases are duo to
the imperfect action of the nerve c%enters at
the base of the brain. not from u dcrange-
ment primarily originating in the organ it.
treating these diseases is that they treat the
organ rather than the nerve centerS which
are the cause OF the trouble.
DR. MILES, the celebrated Spe-
cialist,has profoundly studied this subject for
over 20 years, and has made many important
discoveries in connection with 1t, chief among
them being the facts contained In the above
statement, and that the ordinary methods OF
treatment are wrong. All headache, dizzi-
ness, dizziness, confusion. pressure. blues.
mania, melancholy, insanity, epilepsy, st.
EituS dance, ETC.. are nervous diseases no
matter how caused. The wonderful success of
DR.. Miles Restorative Nervine is due to the
fact hat 1t is based on the foregoing principle.

srENoGRAPHERs FOB THE COURTS,

North Carolina has often been dubbed
the Grip Van Wrinkle" of the states
Many times she neglects to seize the inn.
provements and inventions Of modern
life, and wastes her energies in drying
the oxen, when she might well ride on
the vestibule limited.
This behind-the-tim characteristic il
in nothing more clearly shown than In
the conduct of our courts. Every state
that follows Progress provides stenog-
raphers for her courts. Business is dis
patched with rapidity and ease. Testi-
mony is accurately taken and taken in
one tenth the time it formerly required.
Expense is saved and the work well done.
An instance Of the comparative rapidity
of the stenogrspher compared with the
long hand writer is afforded in the supe-
rior court here. The case of Blacknall
VS.. Cooper & Rowland has beer tried
three times before. Heretofore it has
consumed from three to five days of the
time of the court. Yesterday a stenog-
rapher was employed, and to day the case
is disposed of. The case was gotten rid
Of In one-third the time consumed by the
old method, and the testimony was taken
with absolute accuracy. The case has
been tried before by judges who were
not inferior to Judge Shuford either in
experience or ability. The early disposal
of the case is due to the speed of the
stenographer.
And not only is speed to be urged in
favor of the stenographer, but also &C
When the testimony is taken in
the exact words in which it falls from the
lips of the witness, there is no possibility
Of error.
Then, economy is a consideration. The
main thing preventing modern methods is
economy. The stenographer saves to the
county and the state many times his cost.
The witness fees, the pay of the jurors,
he thousand things that make up the
of a court, are saved. In the
;ase here, the stenographer saw d nea1ly
en- times his cost.
Perhaps this adjunct of the modern
'Ourt is not needed in Ill cases
from their actions in the past The
3LoBE does not dream that North Caro-
legislators would vote for salaried
tenographers. But the power could be
5iven to judges to appoint stenographers
II cases where they deemed it necessary,
he fee of the short hand writer TO be
Included in the costs of the case.
Give the courts stenographers. Free
hem from the bondage of the pen.

APPEALED TO BENHAM.
English Merchant Vessel Captain Refused
Protection by the British Naval
nd
Commander

Rio DE JANEIRo, Feb. 22.-The insur-
gents refused yesterday to allow water
boat alongside the English merchant
ship Nasmyth. The captain of the ship
Immediately appealed to the COM
mander of the British squadron
for safe conduct of the boat, from
which he desired to get a needed sup
ply of fresh water. The British com
mander refused to grant the request.
The ship captain threatened to appeal
to Admiral Benham, in command of the
United States squadron, but the British
commander was obdurate. True to
his word, the Nasmyth's captain
went to Admiral Benham, stated
his case, and asked for pro-
lection for the water boat. Admiral
Benham promptly granted the English
captains request, and gave the requisite
orders to Lieut.. Kilburn, who con-
Quoted the water boat under the Amer
lean flag. The rebels did not fire upon
the boat. This incident has created a
profound sensation in British shipping

MAY DRAW TWO SALARIES.
Decision Rendered in the Case OF Gen. SiCkIeS
Favorable to the Old
vntnn2n
Veteran.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. 24,--Sec-
ond Comptroller Mansur, OF the Treas
ury Department, to-day decided the
case Of Gen. d. L. Sickles, the question
being his right to draw salary both as a
member of Congress and as a retired Of
ticer. After q long opinion the com ptrol-
Ter says:
In conclusion, | sum up the status Of a
retired army officer to be as follows, tow ii:
He may hold any civil office under the gov
eminent save and except those of senator
or member of the House of Representatives,
which by the Constitution are prohibited to
him, or TO any officer, civil or military,
under the United States; that hecan draw his
pay as a retired officer and also draw the
salary or compensation of any civil office
or employment he may hold under the gov
eminent; assuming always that the duties
OF the civil office are performed under and
by virtue of a commission appointing him
TO that Office which he holds in addition to
his rank as a retired officer.
The effect of the decision is that Con-
gress, by swearing in Gen. Sickles when
it knew by the common report that he
was an army officer on the retired list,
has decided that he can be a
member of Congress at the same time
that he is a retired army officer, and
hence he can draw two salaries.
