be injured by the publication of
the reports of the real state of the
country, the woeful stories of dis­

at Channel writes: “ It is still the

There are no fish of any conse­
quence and no food. From Little
Bay to Cape Ray it is the same cry,
though some cases are much worse
off than others. In most of the
settlements to the eastward the
people had the measles. At Seal
Cove, with a population of 200,
every house was a hospital and
many died: some had beds and
bedding while others had nothing
but the bare floor to die upon.”
Another correspondent says there

A M o r b id P a r a e h u t e .
I am just getting over a batch of
sickness there is no particular
name for. My disease is a kind of
combination of all kinds of ail­
ments, toothache, earache, head­
ache, colic, neuralgia, hydrophobia,
general debility and mental de­
rangement. I don’t get much sym­
pathy from any one; no one seems
to care whether I live or die. Of
course this neglect sinks deep into
my heart, and causes my long slim
eye lashes to get damp with tears.
They 6ay the wray of the transgres­
sor is hard, but what is the use
of
punishing a transgressor,
unless he has got sense enough
to know what he is punished for.
If the toothache wrould stop long
enough to allow me to think of
some of the mean things I ’ve done,
I might think the punishment was
just; but it don’t stop, but goes
galloping through my entire sys­
tem like shot through a horn. Ev­
ery dog has his own tail, and every
man should have his own disease;
but I have got my own and every
one's else. The drugs I use for
one don't fit another. What will
cure one makes another worse.
AYlien I drink a pint of nitric acid
to cure the bots, it makea my head­
ache worse; wheu I fill a hollow
tooth full of sulplmret of zinc, it
makes my ears ache^ then the
smell of all these drugs hurts my
nose. I Lave become a living,
walking fragrant, apothecary shop
and a pain-wracked prong of the
human family.
