the central episode was the same. and
onset was so great that 1t would
awaken me. Naturally this recurrent
dream puzzled me, so much so that
spoke about it.
Then one day the accident of a
heavy cold that settled in my throat
led to a medical examination. which.
much to my surprise. revealed the
presence Of a growth, requiring imme-
date treatment by the surgeons knife.
Some time afterward it suddenly &C.
CURED to me that since the removal
of the dangerous growth i had not
once been troubled by the cat clawing
dream. Its significance now began to
dawn on me-
/ had suffered no pain, not even in
convenience. from the growth in my
throat. In fact / had not consciously
been aware of its presence. But IN
questionably the organic changes ac-
companying ii had given rise to sensa-
tons which, slight though they were.
had made an impression on my sleep
ing consciousness sufficient to excite
it to activity. My recurrent dream
consequently was to be regarded as a
symbolic representation Of the disor-
der in my throat-an attempt to inter
pref it, to explain IT. And, indeed.
even in the dream, for all its fantastic
imagery and symbolism, the seat of
the trouble was indicated plainly
enough as could appreciate after the
surgeon had completed his labors.
An experience was reported by Al

1861, and the news Of the seiz-
ure OF Mason and Slidell, Con-
federate commissioners to Eu-
rope. on Nov. 8 In the Bahama channel
did not reach London until the night Of
Nov. 20. The seizure OF these distin-
guished Confederates was made on
board OF an English mail steamer. The
men were taken to United States ports
by the warship which effected the ar
rest. the San Jacinto. commanded by
Captain Charles Wilkes. The San Ja-
cinto brought the news to this country
on Nov. 10. Meanwhile the steamer
Trent was on her way to England to

To state 1t briefly. 1t involved the

were two points OF weakness in the
case OF the United States Captain
Wilkes had not received definite In
structions from his superiors TO make
the seizure. Being in the vicinity of
the movements of Mason and Slidell
and knowing where to locate them. be
decided to make the seizure as an act
Of hostility TO the Confederate states.
His failure to seize the ship upon
which the contraband persons and dis
patches were found was another point
OF weakness. These considerations led
TO disavowal of the act OF Wilkes
after the British demand tdiplomaticaI-
iy called requesu had been duly can
vaSsed in Lincoln's cabinet councils.
The result was foreseen by wise heads
here. and by the time the excitement

All of the men and the ships Of the

dell, even in the cabins OF a ship fly
ing the British flag. incensed the Brit
fish people. Wilkes was given public
receptions in Boston and New York.
and the American press generally
praised his act. The attitude Of the
nation in this matter was shown by
the thanks which the United States
congress rendered to him England
prohibited the expectation of war ma
terial, lest the United States should
turn their own guns and powder
against them.
The New Congress Opens.
Meanwhile the first regular session
of the Thirty-seventh congress, known
as the war congress-" was convened
/ Strangely enough. President Lincoln
made no mention whatever of the case
Of Mason and Slidell. which became
known as the Trent affair in diplo-
matte annals. The people were anx-
ious to know what the attitude of the
government would be in this crisis.
They received some satisfaction from
the fact that the secretary Of the navy
commended Captain Wilkes for the
seizure. This pleased the northern peo-
pie and gave hope to the war party in
England.
Lincoln's secretary OF state, William
II. Seward. had over a month in which
TO consider the case of the Ulited
States before the demand Of Lord Rus
sci reached him. which was as late az
Dec. IS. The questions considered by
him were as follows:
First.-Were the persons named and
their supposed dispatches contraband
of war?
Second.-Might Captain Wilkes law.
fully stop and search the Trent for
these contra band persons and dis
patches?
Third.-Did he exercise that right in
a lawful and proper manner?
Fourth.-Having found the contra.
band persons on board and in presum.
ed possession of the contraband dis.
patches. had he a right to capture the
persons?
Fifth.-Did he exercise that right OF
capture in the manner observed and
recognized by the law of nations?
The affirmative of these questions
Mr.. Seward was prepared TO argue OF
behalf Of his government. But there
