one step towar 1 awakening an interost

f Dr. Nathan Al'en, < ntfnssaelnnctfs,
says : There are cei tain agencies operating
at the present day which in tho
course of time must produce marked
effects upon the organization and
character of our people. The re- 1
moval of so large a proportion of i
the population ftom the country and ,
rural life to cities and largo towns; i
the cluingo of em; 1 ivinmu from farm I
work? from out door exercise and tho
more laborious mecuanical pursuits?
to lighter kinds of business, with increased
oxe rei.se of the brain; add to
this tho greatly irier-'ased strife, excitement
and competition in every department.
of business and society?all
these changes must serve gradually
to diminish muscular power and tho
general \itality of the system. No
truth in vital stat isties is la tter established
thai, the fact that large cities
and a dense population tend to diminish
tii3 physical energies of tho
body and shot ten human life. Then,
the increasing use of alcohol in its
various forms, and especially of tobacco
among young men, must havo
a pernicious influence upon physical
organization. Hut it is in tlteaccumulated,
tho intensified effect produced j
by the law of inheritance, that tho i
most stiiking and destructive results j
are to he witnessed. Could tho evils |
of alcohol, tobacco an I opium, us i
transmitted by hereditary influence,
be fully realized, what more powerful
motives could be presented for a reform
in their us-*, or for t heir absolute
prohibition? We believe the fact is
genera it v admitted tlmr. iher?? u n/ ??
Btant increase in t he ;uso of stimulants
and narcotics throughout the country;
that this question is Settled, hoyond
controversy, by the greatly increased
manufacture an ! sale of tlieso articles.
No true physiologist, who understands
the terrible H.i'ects of tlieso
poisons on the system, and their transmission
to the second, third an I fourth
generations, can look on su i| a stato
of things without apprehending tho
most serious results."
A COl'ltAliKOtS WOMAN.
Mr. Moses Fog'/, a wealthy farmer,
lives a mile from CJorhnm Village, Mo.
He is is a widow r, and his housekeeper
is a Mrs. Jewett. The other
forenoon a knock was heard at tho |
front door, and on opening it
Mr9. Jewett, who was alone in tho |
house,saw a tramp standing there. Ho ;
asked to see the mistress of thehouso.
Khe replied she was tlie only mistress
at the time. The man then in- j
quired for the gentleman of the houso, '
nnd was told he was down in the held, j
He appeared very anxious to see him, j
and wanted Mrs. Jewett to go down
and call him. She refused, and told
the fellow she could nut talk with him
any longer, and sh.it the door in his
face. While tin* lady was talking she
thought, she hem i someone upstairs,
so she wont directly to her room,
and taking a pls'<?l, stopped into another
room, where sure enough sho
was confronted by a huge, ugly-look- I
Ing man, who was endeavoring to secrete
himself in a closet. With tho
utmost coolness Mrs. Jewel t aimed
the pistol at him and requested him
to depart. lfe demurred at lirst,
when tho lady made another step forward
and cocked tho pistol. Tho follow
then ran down stairs and up tho
road. The man at the frontdoor had
also disappeared.

was a test <piestion, Tlic (juestion
was simply "shall we, the republican

have brought on the State, or shall we I
.
crush out, to rise no more to slialne us, I
the relorm measures introduced l?y i

On this issue the battle
in that convention was fought and j
triumphantly won by the connj?H?mii>t.

had broken up in a row and contusion,
but faithful John telegraphed contradicting
this report, he sail that he
"toted the republican parly ot Mmih j
Carolina in his breeches1 pocket", and j
sure enough he did. Swails, the
candidate of the eorropliouisl, (and
heaven knows he is a lit representative)
was elected President- of the convention

thai the latter, knowing undohlledly !

to satis.y every candid reader ol I>abcock's

w as to i inn one ol the. leading citi/..-n:;
ol \Va .iiingion, because he had been
active in urging Congress to investigate
the liatnls perpetrated by the

known, ami le v who have watched
ln.s career lor the last seven years can
be nst' iiiisln'il al tlio proof now
brought lorward, that he was a party
to ilie conspiracy against Mr. Alexa
d< r.
li the testimony of Whitley, who
w as the chief manager ot the burglary,
was unsupported by corroborative
evidence, it might, justly be regarded
with suspicion ; but bet ore the commitiee
inai witness told a very straight
story, which, hi all respects, was continned
by the evidence taken in the
trial ot 1 L.iiTingioi), so far as that went,
and likewise by that of JSIetlleship,
w ho was Wiiiley's principal assistant
in Ihe secret service, and by oilier
witnesses who were acquainted with
all the fuels. It is preposterous to

ceivuhle reason tor doing so, go out ul
Ins way to lie about ihtbuuck, who
had always befriended him.
But there is direct evidence against
Babuook, aside iroiu the declarations
oi Whitley. Nt itlesIdp tehUtUa that
on one uicash-u, while he was in
Washington engaged in working up
the bogus burglary, Whitley wished
bin) to cj*ll upon ISabcock, but he deelined
saving, in detective slang, that
"he ?ii?.l not want to make connection*
with too many people.'' He a|*t,
testifies thai on another occasion, >u
Nevv York, when he ha?1 expressed
apprehensions ol gelling into liillieultv 4^
hi consequence ol the conspiracy
Whitley reassured him by saying thai
"Harrington is Assistant District Attorney;
we have got ihein ail light in
the Treasury Department; you know
I have got Williams so thai lie will do
anything I want him to; Kalmuck is in
liie White House; the President is a
great Irieud ol lioss Shepherd's, ami
we can do just, as we please." Everybody
knows bow elVcctively all thy
persons named exerted their intlucncj
lor the protection ol the conspirators
when Harrington and his confederates
were on trial. A still more important
corroboration ol Whitley's testimony ^
is loiind in a letter Iroui A. K. Newcomb,
w ho is now a detective employed
by Altoriuvliener.il 1'iei riMiont urn.
