The Hygiene of Sorrow. In a receot issue of a New York newspaper an article by Dr. Louiso Fiske Bryaoo formulates some distinctly modern views upon the effects of grief. The attempt to act as if nothing had happened after the advent of somo misfortune, and to couduct life exactly as before, is one of the greatest possible mistakes. It is an outrage on nature, which she resents sharply in tho end. Pay day comes sooner or later; and the overthrow caused by blinding catastrophe arrives, even if dcfcried. The nervous system requires complete rost after blows caused by sorrow. Recent medical obsorvatious (Fere, Bassi, Scbulo, Zenker) show that tho physical results of depressing emotions arc similar to those caused by bodily aocideuts, futigue, chill, partial starvation, and loss of blood. Birds. moles, and dogs which apparently died in consequence of capture, and fruui conditions that correspond in hutnau beings to acute nostalgia and "brokeu heart," were examined after death as to the condition of their interunl organs. , Xutiitiou of tho tissues bad been interfered with, and the substanco proper of various vital organs had undergone the same kind of degeneration as that , brought about by phosphorus or the germs of infectious disease. Tho poison of grief is more than a name. To urge ' work, study, travel, the vain search for amusement, is both useless and dangerous. For a timo tbe whole organism is overthrown, and temporary seclusion is imperative for proper readjustment. After some bereavement the custom of wearing mourning has a distinct moral value. Hut its period of use must be brief: a few weeks, months, perhaps a year; otherwise deusc black draperies become a burdeu, an aesthetic blunder, and a source of depression in themselves For a time they have a place, securing consideration from strangers and silouce from more acquaintance, since sorrow is one of tbe touches of nature that makes tho whole world kin. Whore there is nearness of relationship to nature, rauiblei in the open air, days alone with the sea, alone in the forest, console as nothing else can. t^uict, silent drives, or even short journeys by rail, will reveal a new heaven aud a new earth to one fatigued aud worn by sorrow. Music, when it can be borne, his a soothing power beyoud words, hooks, too, have their placthose gentle companions without speech whose calm society helps annihilate time and space, and who always receive us with the same kindness. The familiar faces of newspapers aud journals bring a stray comfort that eveu the toudorcst heart is powerless to bestow. The caro and companionship of children is another soureo of strength. Children arc uot watching to see how tho afflicted arc bearing up uudor sorrow, nor arc they where"aiting for some expression of sentiment named the overthrow of self-control. A A ild is always tho best coiufdrter, WFj^jering no word of eympalhy^/yet , -jM- lhTkif og interest in life because its r OlJCl wauv.'vl' uvuuur C3D it b? oheercd up, It must bo accepted, tad allowed to wear itself away. Readjustment conies slowly. Sorrow, grief, and all great misfortuues should be regarded as coadi-tious similar to acute infectious diseases, which tLey resemble iu result j and later, as / convalescence from bucu diseases. Seclusion, rest, sleep, appropriate food, lresh air, suushinc, interests that tax neither mind nor body, these arc requirements in this class of illuess, The care of the condition following depressing emotion culls for the same treatment in greater or less degree.?

Tbo common Geld poa, whether the cow pea, clay pea, the Unknown poa, or uther variety, is the clover of tbo South. It will grow when clover will not. It will furnish more forage than clover aod wilL improve the land more rapidly. It can be sown when desired, in a crop of corn, nud thus improve land 'vithout losing a year's use of it (or cultivation. At the North tho pen is coming into wider use in lieu of clover for forago aod as a laud improver. This will furnish a growirg market for cur peas us they will not mature seed there. Tbo great drawback in the raising of peas for soed is the great cost of harvesting and boatiug them out. At lint MnrtK wKnrn Knono orn ! ? r?.nl n r> ieori tbey have satisfactory bom harvesters atid threshers. Southern iuveutivo genius has always bceu e<jual to the demauds upou it. If some one will invent a satisfactory pea harvester aud a good pea thresher, he will not only make a fortune for hixsclf, but he will bring back fertility to tho South. It will increase ten fold the growing of field peas, besides making a new crop lor us to Bbip to the North. These inventions will stimulate the growing of field pea->, just as the invention of the cotton gin stimulated tho increased crop of cottou. Then, too, a good peanut thresher is badly needed for tho peanut crop. Picking oil by band is slow and expensive, and none of the peanut tbrcsbors inveuted so far are as sisfactory. They break and shatter too inauy peanuts. The price ot cottou does not bid fair to go up. The uew area added every year in Texas will continually overbalance the world's increased consumption. Then there is the steadily increasing production in India, Egypt aud Brazil. In Mexico the cottou plaut lives eight years aud produces two crops a year. Production there has heretofore been small, owing to lack of railroads and reliable labor. This is beiug remedied. To compete with a country which can produce sixteen crops of cottou from one planting is using a muzzle loader against a sixteen shooter. Besides all countries south of us, irrespective of fertility, and no matter how rich we shall make our lauds, have tbe advantage of us iu the length of the season. We cau not overcome tbe disadvantage of our short scasous lor cottou. In North Carolina it is doomed, sooner or later, to disappear as a market crop. We can substitute many things. Grass is very proGtable if the laud is made rich cuough, bee>use it takes so little labor. Two weeks out of lite li113*-two ?one week in .June to mow and ono week later to bale up, is enough?while eottun or tobacco require the year round. The Geld pea offers the advantage ot abundant forage, a steady improver of our lands, a good fattcucr for cattle and hogs, aud a crop to ship North. The drawback in the groat expense of harvesting ami preparing J or market should be overcome.

Tito Last of the BuffaloesHunters know that buffaloes will never unless forced cross the iron of a railroad tract, aud this fact figured largely in the unfortunate work of extermination which these animals have suffered since the Western plains have been spanned by railroads. fhn frrentf>.st hlmv <lml? 11- ~ V.VHIW V?HJ UIOUU herds of the Northwest was the completion of the Northern Pacific tract west from liisuiarck to the llocky Mountains. The road practically divided the herds, aud those to the south were soon swallowed up in the general slaughter waged by Indians, pot, hide and tongue hunters, foreign sportsmen and others who wcic out to kill anything they saw on sight. This was during the winter of 1882-8.5. The buffaloes to the north were in many scattered hands, hut there was one great herd of not less than 75,000 head which had found a temporaiy refuge in the triangle formed by the Musselshell, Missouri aud Yellowstone rivers in Montana, and as fhoi) hut not Hnnn cither red or white hunters. 15ut they were as surely d- omed as though already killed, for the railroad iron cut them oil from the southern range,and the Indians of the Canadian northwest, as well as those of our country, barred their retreat into the far North, an 1 so they wore hemmed in between the two, with no possibility of escape in either direction. This last h^rd wss completely wiped out of existence in less than four months, and before the close of the year there were uu' u tew sulfites ana pairs 1011 as fugitives in that vast country whore but a year or two before they could have hecn c united almost by the hundreds ol thousands.

These scientific paradoxes are grouped together in Blackwood's Magazine: The water which drowns us, a fluent stream, can be walked upon as ice. Tim bullet , which, when fired from a musket, carries death, will be harmless if ground to dust before being fired. The crystallized part of the oil of roses, so graceful in its fragrance, a Bolid at ordinary temperatures, though really volatile, is a compound substance containing exactly tho same elements, and in exactly the same proportions, as the gas with which we light our streets. The tea which wo daily drink with benefit and, pleasure produces palpitations, nervous tremblings, and even paralysis, if taken in excess; yet the peculiar organic agent called theine, to which tea owes its qualities, may l>e taken by itself (as theine, not as tea) without any appreciable effect. Tho water which will allay our burning thirst augments it when congealed into snow, so that it is stated by explorers of the Arctic regions that the natives "prefer enduring tho utmost extremity of thirst rather than attempt to remove it by eating snow." Vet if the snow Ik; melted it becomes drinkable water. Nevertheless, although if melted before entering the mouth it assuages thirst like other water, when melted in tho mouth it has the opposito effect. To render this paradox more striking, we have only to rctncml>cr that ice, which | melts more slowly in the mouth, is very I efficient in allaying thirst. r Tlie AVoll* of Tripoli.

' Our daughter, Hlanche, now fifteen years of age, had been terribly afllictcd with nervousness, and had lost the ent ire use of her right arm. We feared St. Vitus dance, and tried the best physicians, with no benefit. She has taken three tattles of Dr. Miles' Nervine and has gained 31 pounds.
