VVAHiiiNtiroN, Miirch. Lfttfc, 1 884.
It had been noised abroad, tbnt,
nt tho tlmo designated for taking up
tho Fit7. John Porier bill, in tho Son
ata on Wednesday, Senator Logan
would tniiko another nnnual soceeh
in opposition. Spectators, largely
composod of society lad los, filled every
treat in tjio gailorles exoept part of the
space upholitcred In blue, which is
dedicated to diplomatic dignity.
Many friends of Senator Logan and
family were present. R ut those who
came to bear the swurthy, fat, un
griimmuiicw Illinois orator, went
away dlasnpolnted. Ho remained
silent. Tho Republican Senator from
New Jersey, who haa charge of the
bill pleaded for Porter's vindication,
and waa followed by Senator Wilson,
of Iowa, who opposed Clio hill. On
Thursday the now Nebraska Senator,
Mr. Matidersnn had tho floor for tho
Porter bill hour, and made his do
but In an argument against (Jon. Por
ter's claims. On Thursday the Por ter
hill pawed the Senate. Tbe Sen
ate I u executive aeaaion ratified the
commorcisl treaty with Moxlco, and
it was a notable coincidonco that It
was dono almost simultaneously with
the complellon of the rail road which
brings tho Mexican capital Into com
munication -villi the great trade con
tersofthe Unlied State.
Tho tariff lasuo has been formally
made up by tho introduction of the
Morrison bill, and the presentation
of tho majority, and minority reports.
The former explains that tho measure
U expected to relieve (bo peoptaof
unnecessary taxation by decreasing
tho revenues $31,090,000. The mi
nority dissent from these views tai
claim that the tariff legislation of last
winter placed the rales as low as Is
consistent with a duo regard for the
proU-ction of tho manufacturer and
the welfare of the laboring clas-es.
During the consideration of the
Port ofuV.a appropriation bill which h
now pending lu the Iff use of Repre
sentatives, Congressman Townsend
of Illinois gavo tho Republicans aomo
effective thrusts lhat they could not
return. He was aroused to war by
tbe remark of Mr. Skinner that ihe
Appropriation committeo was parsi
monious and niggardly, and that the
provisions of the bill would cripple
the efficiency cf the mail service Mr.
Townsend bad alluded to Inadequate
approprJatiorisJ'nitfo by tho last Re
publican Congress ; whereupon Mr.
Horr of Michigan admonished the
Democrats not to imitate the blunders,
but tho virtues and beauties of tho
K- publican iarty. Mr. Townshend
said tint 5o political organization
everexlstod in any civilized coun try
lhat had a record reeking with more
corruption than tho Republican party
has made in tho last fifteen years.
No party ever was ao utterly desti
tule of political virtues, ao unfaithful
to public (rusts, ao prolific In false pre
tense and bypocricy. Hero Mr. Bel
ford arose lo interrupt the orator, but
tho latter requested tbo gentleman
from Colorado to coot oin bimaelf.and
continuing hia attack, aald no Amer
ican citizen could read tho record of
the Republican party without crira
soalog with shamo and humiliation
for his country. Ho recited, Chae,
bumner, Seward, Andrew Johnson,
Lyman Trumbull, and others as brave
leaders, who had led tho party to vic
tory, and wh?, when it,was convert
ed ioto a spoils hunting elique, aban
doned it and affiliated with tbe Dem
ocratic parly, the only political or-
fcanizttinn that had patriotib alma,
aud sought to administer the Govern
ment in the interests of the people.
lie alluded to the thriving of tho star-
route contractors as one of the sad
dest episodes oi any trial -administration
; to the Credit Mobiler band, tbe
post trader plunderers, tho whisky
ring, as well us many other raids on
the Treasury ; to tho crimes of that
party against the sacred rights of
suffrage ; its debauching of the bal
lot box, and its never to be pardoned
sin of depriving the nation of its right
fully elected President, bv fraud,
perjury, and forgery. Ho closed by
saying '-With such a damnnig record
the party prates of its virtues."
The Senate haa been talking about
establishing a Bureau of Labor Stat
istics, and has also given some atten
tlon to the pleuro-pneumonia bill,
but without result in either case. It
must not bo supposed that the foreign
griovancea of the American hog have
been lost uight of, because he has not
been so prominently before the pub
lic of late. Hia demands are still a
subject for earnest deliberation in the
Senate committee on foreign rela
tions.
Although the friends of tho bonded
whisky bill were snubbed early In
the week in their attempt to get the
measure before the House, and pass
ed, they were not effectually discour
aged and will make another attempt
as soon as the Post office Appropria
tion bill goes through.

Nothing towel the vital forces mora
than bleapleasDOHs, which may general
ly be tiaoed to one ef four oausttioo ;
I", mooUl worry j 2, a disordeioJ stom
ach ; 3, excessive muscular exertion ,
4, functional or organic dlaeaiie. Loss
ofslospis, when rightly understood,
one of nature's premonitory warning
that oat of hsr pbyshal lasrg have been
violated. When we arts troubled with
tleeplusSoo4 it becomes requisite to
discover the primary oauvo, and then to
adopt suitable means for its removal.
Win ii inaeuinia or sleeptesauess arises
from mental worry, it is indeed most
difficult to remove. The bes', and per
haps only effectual plan under such cir
ca ra ".teases, sava a writer ia CkvbH
Journal, is a spare diet combitied with
plenty of outdoor eiarcite, thu to
draw the blood from the brain ; for It
is as impossible for the brain to continue
active without due circulation of blood
aa it is f r an engine to move without
steam.
When aiirTring from mt ntal dittre,
a hot sotp bath )' r- retiring to reat
is au invaluable agent for obtaining
sleep, an by its metnt a mote equable
blood pressure heome established, pro
moting a decrease of the heart's action
and relaxation of tho blood veaaels.
Mtuv a sleepless night owes its origin
to the body's temperature being , un
equal In mental worry, the ho 1 i
often hot and tha feet cold, the blood
being driven to the biain. The whole
body should be well washed over with
carbolic soap and sponged with very
hot water. Tha blood then btcoasa
diverted from tha brain, owing to an
adequate diffusion of circulation. Tea
and cjffoe shoultl not be taken of an
evoning when jieraotis suffer from in
somnia, they directly induce sleepless-
noa, being nervine s'.iun'ar U. A

Sleeplessness is so uptimes engender
ed by a diaorderod stomsch. Vhn-
ever this orgsn is overhead, its pew- ;
ere act disordered, and wakefulness or a I
restless night is its usual accompani . ;
ment. Dr. C. J. B. Willum, F.R.S ,
remark, that no food should be teUeu
at least within one hour ot bad tiino i
It can not be too generally realized 'hat
the preaonce of undigested food in the
stomach one of tbo most vailing
causes of sleeplessness.
Persons auffuring from either func
tions! or organic disease are iecuiiarly
liable to sleeplessness. When inability
to .; eristenily occurs, an J can not
be traced to any other perverted mode
of life or uutrition, there is good rea
aon for surmising lhat tome latent o:al-
ady gives rise to ao truly a distressing
condition. Under these circumstances,
instesd uf making bad worse, by as-allowing
deadly sleeping drug, a scien
tific physician ahould be without delay
eonsultod. Fuoctuaal disorders of the
stomach, liver aud hear, are oftou the
primary source of otherwise unaccount
able wakefulness.
Kttcentlv. the danoro u aud 1 1-
J v 9
mentable habit of promiscuously taking
sleeping draughts has unfortunately be
come very pnvaleut, ouut.iuj misery
and iil -health to a terrible degree. Moat
persons addicted to this destructive
practice eironeously think it ia better to
take a sleeping draught than lie awake.
A greater mistake could hardly axist.
All opiates more or less occasion mis
chief, and even tho state of stupefaeuon
they induce utterly fails to bring about
tbe revitslization resulting from natural
sleep. The physiological effect of hyp
notics, of sleeping draughts, upon the
system, is briefly as followa : (l) They
paralyze the nene centers and disorder
the stomach, rendeiing it unfit for its
duties ; witness the aiuknesi and loss of
appetite consequent upon a debauch.
Chloral, chloroform, opium, etc., aot
upon the system much in the aame way
aa inebriation. (2) One and all anaes
thetics introduced into tho body have
life-detroying properties in a low de
gree proved by an overdose being
fatal. (3) The condition they produce
is not sleep, but counterfeit, state of
unconsciousness. (i) They diroctly
poison the blood, consequent upon its
carbonization, resulting from their ac
tion. While speaking of sedatives, we
cannot omit drawing special attention
to chloral. This powerful drug is pop
ularly supposed to give a quiet night's
rest without any of the after effjsts
(headache, etc.,) produced by various
preparations of morphia. Now, chloral
is what is termed cumulative in its ac
tion, which implies that eveu thj same
dosa persisted in for a certain length of
time may cauoe death. Of all hypon
tics, chloral ia by far the most deadly,
and should never, under any circum
stances, be taken except under medical
supervision.
To epitomize what has already been
said reffardmcr sleeplessness, its ra-
- S3 WJ .
tional cure should be arrived at in each
individual case by asekingout the cause,
and then removing the morbid action,
of which it is but a natural pquence.
Lastly, sleepessness under no circum
stances should be negleeted, as it acts
disastrously both on the marital and
physical forces.

It has been a conjecture f ,r tbe psst

of the many dtsgrsceful and slanderous
flings at many of our reectable young
men and women. Tbe pusillanimous
attempt to rob young men and young
women, married men and msrried wo
men, of the jewels most precious to
their souls, haa been tbe stock in trade
of this miserable viper. The biggest
coward and rankest devil, that disgraces
Clod's creation, is the anonymous, back -biting,
lying correspondent. When
bis innocent victim is pursuing the
even tenor of his daily toil, trying to
make an honest living, thi coward in
oubu of vice is closeted with a pal,
manufacturing his vile lie. For what

Indian in Polk county some time

him for support. As he had been so

On Thursday lost, too late for the issue
of last week, came the following tele
grsm from Albaoy, New York.
"Ood has crowned the mnths of
prsyer and almost superhuman lsbor
ith victory. The New York legisla
ture to-day cast tbe final vote for a
strong compulsory temperance education
law."
Mabt 11. Boas,
The great Empire state with its mil
lion of children in the public schools
evidently means to maintain its impe
rial prestige and character. No more
royal road to empire has ever been '-cast
op" than that which embeds itself on
the rock ef intelligent morsU. It is
reported by one "on tho spot" that
when tbe bill had reached its third
reading, all antagonism to it had like
Bob Acre' courage "oozt-d out," aud
oa the final vote, juat two petaons com
mitted themselves against it. Only
one man was left to ssy in the blandest
and the blindest of o!iiicai moods, "If
this measure applied to Sunday schools,
nstead of public schools, it would be
admissabia."
Tbe union of church and slate stems
net to f.-igbten this astute men
half ao much as the proe(iect of ''tetu-
eiance in politics."
The New York Aawfaag Post, which
ill by no means be accused of being
"fanatical" on tbe temperance question,
in an editorial review of what it calls
"Mr. Blsine's Whisky 8cheme," says :
"It ia to be boped.and indeed expected,
that with tbe progress of civilization
I C7 i
and the spread- of education, tbe con
sumption of liqsor in ail states will
decline. No patriotic mm will recon
cile himself to the thought that the
United Siatea will continue to receive
$86,000,000 from the whisky tax.
Unless all that ia best in our institu
tions prove a failure, this source of in
come will decline. If there is to -any
serious improvement in the meMal
and mcrat condition of-the great mass
of the people, it must decline. Every
lover of his race mutt believe that
Americana will consume hereafter less
and less whisky, and ought to strivo to
that end. What are we to think,tben,
a . , i
or a sage who deliberately proposes a
charge in the manner of raising the
local taxation of the country which
would give every State the strongest
possible interest in having the con
sumption of liquor all over the country
maintained and iucreated, and which
would make tho distillery one of the
meat valuable instruments of govern
ment ?
There is evidently much misender
standing with regard to the meaning
and intent ot the term "prohibition."
I am often met with the assertion
that we are endeavoring to legislate
with regard to what people shall drink,
and that tbe people will not thus allow
their rights to be legislated away or
restrained by law that we cannot en
force sumptuary lawc. This ia entirely
foreign to the subject, and based upon
either a misapprehensinu or willful
blindness as to the real issue.
Prohibition in its proper sense means
only the prevention of a traffic which is
working an injury to tbe State and the
community, and tbe State does but
exert its right and its duty in protect
ing itself and its citizens from an enemy
which ia warring against its prosperity
ay, against its very life.
Because prohibition and total absti
nence go band-in-hand in this warfare,
and are natural allies of eaoh other in
the contest, we confuse the two, and
fight prohibition with the weapons
which are fitted to apply only to the
other wing of tbe temperance army.
In the one we apply only the force
of persuaaion ; for the other we ask the
protection of tbe strong arm of the
law.
Tho New York TrVmrjn, no longer
edited by Horace Oreely, takes occasion
to belittle and oppoa the bill pending
in tbe Legislature at Albany to provide
for scientific instruction concerning
alcohol in tbe public and normal schools
of this Bute. It ssya : Tbe avoidance
of narcotics an I stimulants is to be
gained through the home circle rather
than through the schools. It adds:
"Tbe boy who has been told that tobac
co and wbiskoy are poisons goes home
and sees bis father smoke and drink,
and that examnle is of mar ---
ith him than all the instruction he
receives from bis teacher." It would,
of course, be desirable to have tbe
home influence with rather than against
tbe lessons of the teacher in relation to
alcohol, nd tobacco as well, bat it by
no means foilocs that because it may
not be, therefore no such lessons should
be given in the sabools provided for by
the State. It often happens that there
are illiterate, and especially drunken,
fathers who are not at all interested to
co-operate with the teachers in tbe pub
lic schools in their efforts to teach otb- r
important lessons ia these schools.
Ought not tbe State, therefore, to pro
vide for these other lessons ? If scienti
fic lessons concerning alcohol are to be
relegated to tbe home circle, why not
ail physiological or even mathematical
or geographical instruction as well t
