the mind makes the body it in-
Kfeits, using for that purpose the mate
riateit collects from the outer world, so
'its intlucucc over the tenements it con
structs is potent in tho extreme. Every
emotion it experiences exerts a direct
iniluenco upon some one or more of its
corporeal organs. Fear injuriously af
fccU the heart and the skin; anger, the
liver; sorrow and anxiety, the digestive
orjmas and the alimentary canal; and
passion, the blood-vessels; extreme de
pression will induce dyscntory and
curvy; and Bichat, the great French
anatomist, maintains that cancer of the
stomach frequently owes its onirin to
powerful emotions. There is a duly
authenticated case of a man aged
twenty-seven, who for two years was
exposed to perpetual worry and anxiety
of mind, and from whom his hair fell
off literally in masses, so that he became
completely bald, his very eyebrows and
eyelashes having disappeared. Medical
treatment proved unavailing; but when
liis business troubles passed away, his
hair came back again. An eminent
physician says that he has "known the
teeth to decay in an extraordinary man
ner in a few weeks, as the cH'eet of
powerful emotion, more allied to fear
than any other." Another states that
"a young man in Paris had a muskot
pointed at his broast; he became sud
denly deeply jaundiced, for which he
was taken to a hospital, and died." Sir
Samuel Baker tells us that when he was
at Obbo, in Central Africa, "any severe
action of the mind, such as grief or
anger, was almost certain to lie suc
ceeded by fever in that country." And
it is a fact familiar, I suppose, to every
medical man that numbers of infants
lose their lives owing to the deplorable
ignorance on the -part of their mothers
of the inllucnee of mental emotion upon
the secretion of milk.
The fear of small-pox, cholera, tho
yellow fever, or the plague, has repeat
edly induced one of theso maladies in
persons oppressed with the apprehen
sion of it. Even dropsy has been oc
casioned by terror. One of the most
remarkable cases of this kind is that
reported by a hospital physician at
Narbonuc, in France. A boy, aged
eleven, a medical pupil, had lost his
father, and imagined in a dream that
he returned and embraced him, which
gave 4hu lad a great fright. Next morn
ing his abdomen was found to be " dis
tended like a balloon," and very pain
ful and tender. "Mddicincs having
failed to remove the effusion, the
surgeon drew off ten pints of clear
fluid, the euro being completed by
local friction and diuretics."
I could quote scores of similar illus
trations of the power of mental emo
tion to produce physical disorder or
disease; but enough have been cited,
perhaps, to sustain my position. But
there is another side to the subject, viz.,
tho curativo power of tho emotions, for
this is just as remarkable as their
morbid influences. Many persous will,
no doubt, remember what Voltaire said
about medical science, that "it is the
art of amusing the patients, while na
ture performs the cure." But this is
one of those half truths which pass cur
rent as whole truths, because they are
wrapped up in an epigram, and are
flavored with wit. The politic phy
sician will do his best to amuse tho
mere maladc imaginairc, and will throw
in a few bread pills and harmless tinct
ures in deference to her for such
patients are usually women in defer
ence to her superstitious -belief in the
cflieacy of physic; but the philosophical
practitioner who has real invalids to
deal with will do something more than
amuse them, or than administer medi
cine. He will endeavor to restore their
health of mind, to encourage hope, to
inspire confidence, to dispel anxiety, to
promote cheerfulness to belittle the
malady in the estimation of the suffer
er, and to enlist on his side as medical
and curative agmtfs the mental faculties
of his patients. And he will succeed
in proportion as he does this. I have
one such practitioner in my mind's
eye at this moment a friend of two-and-twenty
years1 standing, to whom
the obligations of my family and my
self for this ration.il and beneficial
kind of treatment are such as cannot
be canceled by a mere money pay
ment; and I am sure that his profes
sional experience has been full of signal
illustrations of the power of tho mind
over the body in the psychopathic di
rections I have indicated. Many such
illustrations are to be found in the
medical books: and they serve to ex
plain the astonishing cures which have
-often been effected by apparently the
most preposterous remedies. So wise a
man as Bacon believed in spells and
amulets. Cato the Censor seriously re
corded an incantation for setting" dis
located bones; and numbers of persons
are reported to have been healed of
scorbutic affections by the imposition
of royal hands, from the tune of Edward
the Confessor down to the days of
Queen Anne. The grease of a roasted
hedgehog was formerly regarded as
-efficacious for the removal of deaf
ness. Apickled herring, applied to the
soles of the feet, was said to banish
ague. A mouse, skinned, dried in an
oven, reduced to powder, and then
mixed with ale, was prescribed as a
remedy for the whooping-cough. "A
wine of earth-worms, with a little
scraped ivory-jand English saffron," was
reputed to be a marvelous specific
lor the yellow jaundice; and a small
Tone taken from the knee-joint of
the hind-leg of a hare was tho nos
trum recommended to persons suffering
arom cramp. At first we are astonished
at making the discovery that people
frequently benefited by the adoption of
such extraordinary prescriptions; yet
when we come to understand, however
imperfectly, the power of the mind
over the hody, we cease to wonder at
these phenomena, because they then
admit of an easy explanation. Patients
recovered their health, not because
there was any efficacy in the often extravagantly-ridiculous
medicines .pre
scribed, but because they implicitlyTe
lieved in their salutary character. This
worked the cure. As Dr. Tuke con
cisely puts it, " As in health certain
mental states may induce 'disease, so an
disease certain mental states may re
store health." He himself has furnished
two very striking verifications of the
second part of his proposition. He
says: "Every oo has heard the story
of the doctor" wjib left his prescription
on the table for a lady who suffered
from pleuro-dyaia, saying, 'put this to
ycurside1; and how thepatient literally
aid so, instead of -obtaining the pre
scribed plaster; but, in spite of this mis
take, derived great benefit from the
application. A parallel case of colic is

much doubt remaining in the minds ol
the moat skeptical as to the potent in
fluence of mental emotion upon our
bodily health, by exciting, modifying, or
altogether suspending various organic
functions. We have it on the authority
of one of the first psychopaths of the
day that "plcasureablc emotions increase
the amount of gastric juice secreted,"
the opposite effects being produced by
depressing passions. Dr. Beaumont
found in the man with the fistulous
opening into the stomach " that anger
or other severe mental emotions would
sometimes cause its inner or mucous
coat to become morbidly red, dry, and
irritable, occasioning at the same timo
a temporary lit of indigestion." And I
suppose it has been the misfortune of a
good many of my readers to have eaten
meals under the pressure of great
trouble or anxiety, and to have felt how
tasteless and innutritions they were
under such circumstances, and now the
organs of tho stomach were altogether
incapable of digesting and assimilating
the food then presented to them. This,
too, in a greater or less degree, is one
of the injurious consequences of worry.

The Western Stnge-Driver.
It is worth a day's journey to get
acquainted with the average Western
stage-driver, to listen to his stories and
observe his ways. "Ho is only a pas
senger," is a slang expression which I
sometimes hear used in the East to do
scribe a person who thinks ho manages
some important enterprise which is
really controlled by other and more im
portant men; but I never appreciated
now forcible it was until I took my seat
on the box by the side of a Western
stage-driver. The conductor of a rail
way train is tho man who comes along
through the carat intervals and punches
a peculiarly shaped hole in your ticket,
or tears off a coupon as you approach
the end of a division. He waves his
hand or swings his lantern for the train
to start, but the fact that he is the man
into whose hands we commit our lives,
the autocrat of the train, never occurs
to me unless some accident happens
through his negligence.
The stage-driver is the conductor, en
gineer, fireman and brakeraan; ho is
tho captain of the ship, its complement
of officers and the crew, and when he
gathers up his lines, unwinds his whip
lash from its stock and " pulls out," he
is the "boss" until he reaches the end
of his route. His coach is not run by
telegraph; he does not wait at stations
for orders to "go ahead;" he goes fast
or slow as he pleases. And the stage
driver generally knows his own import
ance and makes his passengers feel it.
If you get on the right side of him ho
will crowd the journey full of interest
and pleasure, but if ho conceives a dis
like or contempt for you, the sooner
you get a seat inside the coach the bet
ter it will be for you.
A majority of the Western stae
drivors are middle-aged men (less than
lifty), but they have lived a hundred
years if time was only measured by the
experience they have had. It is rare to
meet one nowadays who did not drive
on the old overland route, and many of
them served their apprenticeships in the
States east of the Missouri River before
that route was established. To hear a
man whose hair has not begun to turn
gray tell of his adventures on the plains
and in the mountains beforo there was
a Pacific Railroad is to me almost like
listening to a soldier of the Revolution
describing the battle of Bunker Hill.
One period seems little more remote
than the other to one who never saw
this country until he could como here by
rail, and to our children they will be
equally remote periods of the romantio
past.
1 think I would know a Western
stage-driver wherever I might see him
on tho box. Though not uniformed,
there aro certain peculiarities in the
way they wear their clothes that, though
difficult to describe, are unmistakable.
But there is more in the manner than
in the dress. They sit upon the box
as though they were part of it, they
hold the reins in a certain way, and
the butt end of the long whip, when
not in use, lies loosely between the
thumb and forefinger of the right
hand, while the top rests across tho
lines. If 1 saw a man who was driving
in this way take all the reins and the
whip in his left hand when he came to
a level piece of road or a slight ascent,
draw the end of his whip-lash tenderly
through his right hand, and then, by a
continuation of the same motion, raise
Ins hand very slowly as he let the snap
per drop, and taking his hat by the rim
behind push it forward over his eyes, I
should be disappointed ifr when 1 asked
him if he did not drive for Wells, Fargo
& Co. or Ben Holliday in olden times,
ho did not reply: "You bet," or "I
should remark." "
These fellows are generally rough and
profane, but they aro men ol undoubted
nerve, brave as a lion and full of re
sources when in danger or difficulty.
Toward ladies they are, almost without
exception, I believe, polite and gallant.
To their friends they are as true as
steel, ami there is a sense of honor prev
alent among them that makes them
remarkably trustworthy. "1 treat ev
ery man white who treats nie white,
and don't you forget it," said "Frank"
the driver with whom I rode to Silver
Cliff the other day, in speaking of his
relations with his employers. "They
always done what's right by me and I
can't kick," he added. And this was
said in a way which showed that he
meant it. Cor. N. T. Tribune.'

The Crozet Islands. "
The Chaplain of the British naval
vessel Comus, thus describes his visit to
the Crozet Islands, a group in the In
dian Ocean: "The sensation on landing
was like that probably experienced by
Robinson Crusoe. The birds and other
animals did not dread man, and did
not move out of our way. We found
three kinds of penguins the jackass
penguin, the king penguin, and the
crested penguin. They stalk about in
troops like a school or a regiment of
soldiers; they pecked at our legs as we
walked -along, and their tactics quite
puzzled our large Spanish dog. who
barked at them, out gave them a wide
berth. It was the moulting season, and
most of the old birds looked very 'dis
reputable, with their tattered feathers
and semi-naked bodies. Wild ducks
and teal popped up their heads through
(he long grass, but scarcely took the.
trouble to lly away. Sea hens and oth

the smaller pieces in an unused room

disposed of by hanging at night on

should be wiped with a cloth before the

Lang Plague of Cattle.
Pkof. James Law, in a very valu
able paper of observations on "Pleuro
pneumonia Contagiosa Bovina," shows
that it has occasioned a loss in the
British isles, for forty years, of no less
than 10,000,000 per annum. In this
country, the direct losses from the dis
ease, the depreciation of our beef in
the English market, and many other
incidentals, are estimated at .2,000,
OO'J per annum, "although the plague
has invaded as yet," says Prof. Law,
" but the merest fragment of our im
mense territory." Should it extend to
Texas, the Mississippi Valley, and the
plains, regions much warmer than En
gland and favoring its more rapid
spread, an annual loss of fifty or .sixty
millions might well be feared. Prof.
L. treats with just severity the feeble
measures adopted in some of the States
for the suppression of the disease. Ho
says "some of the officials claim
special credit fr husbanding the coun
tr3''s money, and it is claimed that
Penns3'lvania has expended less than
$3,000 in indemnities for slaughtered
cattle. In place of a vigorous plan of
extinction, founded on an intimate
knowledge of the plague, and which
bars all channels for its further dif
fusion, while the infection that is al
ready" in existence has been remorse
lessly stamped out, they adopt measures
that are defective at evory step, and,
while they restrict the pestilence at
one point, the3T actually favor its
spread to other parts of their territory,
and to that of their neighbors. They
cut down a few shoots that have al
read3 grown up into plants, but pay no
attention to the incessant sowing of the
same noxious seed going on all around
them. They save a few thousand dol
lars to their respective States, but per
petuate the lung plague on the con
tinent, and are endangering its spread
to the Southern anil Western cattle
ranges, at a prospective loss of .o0,
000,000 per anuum." During the past
year the disease has been virtua'Iy
rooted out of the seven lower count'es
of the State (leaving Brooklyn) by the
slaughter of 1,400 diseased or infected
cattle, and Prof. Law urges the execu
tion of the work in a sharp and de
cisive manner which, however, is
likely to prove a failure without the co
operation of Brooklyn. Country Gen

The other day a Detro'.t lawyer had
a call to go in to the country a few miles
to attend a case on trial before a conn
try 'Squire, and while jogging leisurely
along in his buggy, he saw a man come
running across the fields at the top of
his speed. Directly behind him, and
armed with a stout stick, was a woman,
and it was a nip-and-tuck nice to the
fence. The man reached it first, how
ever, and as he dropped on the highway-side
he called out to the lawy er:
"Stranger, for Heaven's sake, give
me a lift down the road for half a mile!'
"What's the trouble here?" asked
the lawyer.
"Wife and I have had another falling

down a steep bank to the buggy.
The woman at this moment "reached
the fence, and, as she was climbing
over, the lawyer inquired of the hus
band: "Are you fooling or in earnest?"
"If you think Pm fooling just wait a

plunged down the bank, rolled over ami
over in the road and rose up with a big
stone in each hand.

circled around the horse, but the law

five or six more were coming as he
struck a trot and moved off, the hus

X Suggestive IOtfcr to Cheese-Makers.
An old cheese shipper, writing from
London to the Utiea (N. Y.) JJcrald,
says:
There aro plenty of persons in the
cheese trade, as elsewhere, who think
that because an article is very low in
price that is a reason for its going still
lower; but as soon as the lowest poiut
has been touched and a reaction has set
in, there is a rush all round to secure a
Utile stock. Freer buying results, and
the market is carried rapidly up. some
times beyond all reason. This impetus
almost invariably comes from your side.
The price generally h:is to be steadied
in New York before it can be steadied
here now the Now York receivers can
not help themselves any more than the
English importers they cannot dwell
on a iiuickly-perishablc article, but are
bound to sell their receipts of slackly
made cheese from week to week. It U
at the factory that a change may be in
augurated. It is l3' the jarmcrs that a
stand may be made. Iu the full Hush
of the How of milk a portion, at any
rate, of the cheese should be made to
keep, and dairymen must have the
courage to hold it when it is nccessar3
to steady the market. If properly
made and properly looked after, in a
suitable storehouse, the cheese should
keep better on the farmer's shelves
than anywhere else.
1 do not share the apprehensions of
those who raise the cry of over-production.
I believe Great Britain can take
and consume, at a fair price, all the
good cheese you are likely to send her.
But the supply must be'morc equally
spread over the whole year you must
give us twelve months in which to con
sume the cheese you make in the six or
seven months from April to October.
What this country can not do is to con
sume in .idly and August the full quan
tity of cheese you produce in June and
July. There will always be, in those
months, a surplus beyond John Bull's
largest digestive power. This surplus
must be held somewhere. If forced
upon this market it can only be sold at
a price low enough to insure the biryer
against risks of markets, and above all
against the loss attendant on holding
an article that rapidly deteriorates in
quality. Moreover, this surplus neces
sarily drags down the whole of the
June and July make to its own level of
value. The present system of smother
ing this market with cheese, that will
not keep, made in June, July and early
August, also works evils in another way.
The "public" gets so tired of eating
strong, ill-flavored cheese and the
"trader" gets so disgusted with the
risk and worry of handling it, that
there is a general outcry for something
clear and Tceepablc, and so a rush is
made for September make. This as a
consequence is forced up to so extreme
a price that the trade is checked and an
opportunity afforded to the English
dairymen of unloading their summer
make at comparatively good prices.
I do not think that the general run of
the qualit3 of American cheese is so
good as it might, and therefore as it
ogW, to be. The chief ambition of too
many factory men appears to be to get
a shade higher price for their cheese
than is realized by their neighbors. No
doubt it is a matter of just pride to a
good maker when his care and pains
taking meet their due recognition in the
satisfactory form of enhanced prices.
It is a very legitimate triumph when
such a maker ean realize for his patrons
one-eighth cent or one-fourth cent or
perhaps even more per pound, over the
current figures for fairest factories.
But I fear this very often leads to mere
trading on an old reputation and a
slackening of efforts for continued im
provement. 1 am not sure but that it
would even pa better in the long run
were 3'our best factories to help their
less successful neighbors to make tincr
cheese. The higheryour average stand
ard of quality the surer will be your
hold on British markets, and you will
even get a more than proportionately
better price, for if a considerable part
of your make is poor it cannot fail to
drag down the value of the balance. I
write in the interest of no special de
partment of the trade. I have no pri
vate ax to grind. I don't believe in
rigging or in cornering the market,
but I do believe that dairymen may do
much towards regulating "it. It cannot
benefit either the. producer or the
dealer or the consumer that a large
amount of valuable property should
thus be annnally sacrificed and a large
quantity of desirable food spoiled or
greatly" deteriorated. Surely it is not
beyond the capacity of those whose
energy and intelligence have in so
short a time built up your colossal
cheese interest to find a remedy for that
untoward state of the trade which I
have endeavored to point out.
It was recently remarked by4 Prof.
Maudsley that one striking feature ob
served by medical men in cases of hal
lucination is that the patients cannot be
convinced that the objects they see. the
sounds they hear and the smells they
perceive have no real existence, and
that the sensations received are the re
sult of an excited state of their nerves.
Hallucination often extends to but one
sense, the person affected being other
wise in a perfectly normal condition.
It may arise either from an idea on
which the mind has dwelt closely, or
from excitement of the sensory nerves.

The ceremony had been performed
at a Sacramento wedding, and the
guests were about to sit down to a din
ner. The bride had discarded an old
lover to accept her present husband,
and to the former she allotted the place
of honor at the head of the table. The
husband was made jealous by this pre
ferment. " If that cuss goes to the table
I don't." he said. This remark gave
rse to a lively quarrel. The officiating
clergvman endeavored to effect a re
conciliation, but in vain, and the party
dispersed without eating the dinner.
Then the bride fainted and her family
drove the husband out of the house.
He returned in the night, drew a pistol
and tried to force his way to her pres
ence, but reached a police station In
stead. A singular instance of belief in
witchcraft, a superstition supposedto
be extinct, is reported from Norris
town," Pa. Some days ago a young
married woman was taken ill. and her
sickness was attributed by her husband
to the fact that she is bewitched. Anx-
Jous to discover the guilty party, he
procured a new horseshoe from a
blacksmith shop, prepared it in some
vrav to act as a charm, and then threw
t into the fire. Not long afterward he
heard one of his neighbors complain of
a hurmnir nam in her chest, and be-
lieved that he had found the witch To
make sure, ho placed some salt under
the carpet at the doorway of his house
and awaited the result. Several neigh
bors came to see the sick woman and
cros?ed the threshold "-ithout difficulty,
but the suspected one stumbled in pass
ing over it. He intends to try further
experiments reported to be effective in
discovering witches.
