tin, and the work Is made up of a series of
sketches originally contributed to the columns
of that journal. Mr. Guild has had so many
predecessors in the branch of literature to
which this volume is the-latest contribution,
that it Las scarcely been possible for him

entertaining description of the noteworthy
Bights of Europe, it will compare favorably

"Dress and Care of the Feet," published

common deformities and discomforts to which
the feet are subjeot; to show the best means
of preserving their natural shape and condi
tion, or of restoring it, as far as possible,
when lost; and to suggest better methods for
their dress and general treatment. It con
tains a number of valuable hints about the
Shape of shoes and boots, and other matters
connected with the comfort of the feet, and
we commend it to the attention of the suf
ferers from corns and bunions as likely to
suggest means of relief. For sale by J. B.

SINGULAR rilEKOMEXOX.
A Man's Body Dead While hli Head It
Alive and Well.
A singularly awful accident occurred on
Thursday morning near Little Falls, N. J., to a
prominent citizen of that place, named George
fihackford. lie waa piling a load of hay, stand
ing on top, when a wafer of the load caused
him to lose his balance, and he fell to the
ground, striking npon the back of his neck.
For a few minutes he was completely senseless,
but subsequently recovered at far as his head
and mental faculties were concerned.
His body, however, was completely paralyzed,
the whole being perfectly dead belew the neck
utterly deveid of all power of motion er any
sense of feeling. The unfortunate man could
not control the smallest muscle, neither could
be feel the touch or abrasion of the flesh below
the neck. Ifo experienced no sensatlou of
pain or physical unpleasantness. The uienUl
agony of such a condition, however, cannot bo
imagined.
The injured man was still in the same condi
tion yesterdav afternoon, but was latlinr fast,

"WE ILLINOIS FARMER? ON TEE
SITUATION.
GRANT, 6T7MNEB, BAN DOMINOO, MOTXIT, AND
THE OINKRAL CONDITION OT ATFAIB8 AT
WASHINGTON HTJMOKOU8LT BEVEEWID.
That shrewd and quaint observer, "The
Illinois Farmer," has written the following
letter to the Iron Age:
The mail has brought my Washington pa
pers, which give me a clearer insight into
what the telegraph had reported about the
muss that some Senators had kioked up about
the removal of Mr. Sumner from the chair
manship of the Committee on Foreign Affairs
a place he has held for some years. That
Mr. Sumner has ability and is very industri
ous, no one doubts or questions, so far as we
know, but that he has a divine right, to the
exclusion of all others, to occupy the most
prominent position in the Senate, some of us
plain men are not so certain. I see that his
colleague, Mr. Wilson, goes so far as to say
that this action of the Senate will cause a split
in the Republican party. I guess not this
time. How do Mr. Sumner and Mr. Wilson
reconcile this with their oft-repeated denun
ciations of the Southern people rushing into
rebellion for no other reason than the elec
tion of Mr. Lincoln, in 18G0, by a majority of
the people of the United States? "What is
sauce for goose is for gander."
Is Massachusetts the whole of the United
States ? Is it not enough that the Secretary
of the Treasury, and General Grant's first
Attorney-General, as well as the Minister to
England, should be taken from Massachu
setts, while one of her Senators held the
third most important position in the Govern'
ment. Must the great Republican party, to
which more than anything else the Govern
ment owes its existence, be broken up be
cause the majority of the Senators have seen
fit to organize their committees to suit them
selves? Senators have vast and important
duties to perform, and we all know it has
been the practice ever since we have had a
Senate to apportion the various duties to cer
tain of their own members for examination
and report to the full Senate, for the simple
reason that it is practically impossible to get
through with the publio business in any other
way. If, in the selection of those commit
tees, any Senator sees fit to pout and make
a fuss because he imagines he has been
Blighted, my notion is he will have all the
gTowling to himself, for the great mass of our
people care no more who compose those com
mittees than they do as to whom the Shah of
Persia shall select for his Grand Vizier. What
we all look at is the final notion of Congress
and the President, as regards our publio mat
ters. If what they do does not please us, we
then take it in hand, and elect a Congress and
President that will do what we think should
be done. We care not at all how they do it,
but we look sharp at what is done or left un
done, i
It appears from the papers that Mr. Sum
ner has been somewhat riled because General
Grant saw fit to remove Mr. Motley from the
Ministry to England, and from that moment
has gone around with a chip on his shoulder
(as school boys often do), daring some one to
knock it off; or, in other words, virtually say
ing to the President, "I'll show you that yon
can't snub my friend Motley with impunity."
Hence his opposition to the President's sug
gestion that Congress should take steps to
acquire the island of St. Domingo.
I have nothing to say one way or the other
about the removal of Mr. Motley. That he
is a splendid historian, and has written the
clearest and most correct history of the
Dutchmen in Holland, during their terrible
struggle with Catholicism as represented by
Philip II, of Spain, no one questions, but
that in consequence thereof he is the man to
represent us in putting a new ring in Mr.
John Bull's nose, does not follow by any
means, it is enougn for me to know that
General Grant, whom we eleoted to look after
all such matters, didn't want him any
longer-i-paid him off and told him he'd hire
somebody else. Supposo Mr. Sumner should
recommend Borne Massachusetts farmer to
me to act as my head farmer, and I should
employ him; and suppose I should find, after
having tried him, he was not the man I wanted
at all, and tnat 1 should discharge him, would
Mr. bumner raise a row about it, and go
snorting around the country and saying,
"lied teach that Illinois farmer a lesson
when he got a good chance, he would! "
think there would be as much sense in the
latter case, as in the fuss he has made over
Mr. Motley.
It appears that the first chip Mr. Sumner
put on his shoulder, and strutted around
daring some one to knock it off, was his op
position to the President's proposal to Con
gress to taite measures to acquire St. Domin
go, provided always the people of that island
were disposed to unite with us. Both houses
of Congress met him fairly and knocked his
"chip" higher than a kite, by authorizing the
President to appoint commissioners to go
down and look the island over, talk with the
people about joining us, and oome back and
report to them all about it. So, if Mr. Sum
ner is six feet and two inches high in his
stocking feet, forty-seven inches round the
cneat, and said to be the most expert pugv
list in all New England, it seems Congress
wasn't afraid of him the least bit, but
knocked the chip off his Bhoulder before he
had time to think even of throwing himself
into a defensive position, mucn less to do it;
so, away flew that chip, and now that the
Senate has hoisted his "Foreign Relations
Chip," too, he must begin to see that he is
not quite so all-powerful as he has imagined
himself to be for some few years past. That
Mr. Sumner has of late beoome so overbear
ing and dictatorial in his intercourse with
other Senators as to be almost unbearable, I
believe is not denied, even by some of his
most ardent admirers. I have no acquaint
ance with him, of eourse, but that was the
impression he made on me when I saw him
from the Senate gallery during the war, as I
was occasionally in Washington. In those
days be used to pitch into our own Lincoln
far more than he now does into Grant: but
that great and good man paid no more atten
tion to such attacks than he did to the
whining buz of a prairie "gallinipper," that
lustiest breed of mosquitoes we raise.in this
State.
As for this St. Domingo business, I can
only say this: I go in for getting some place
down in those West India Islands where we
can have a ship yard to repair vessels and
deposit coal for our steamers; so that in case
of war our steamers shall stand an equal
chance with the navies of other nations, so
far as operations on our South Atlantio and
Gulf coasts are concerned. England, Frauoe,
Spain, and Denmark all own some of these
islands, so that in case of war witn us they
would be at borne, while our ships have no
place to refit short of Charleston or Savan
nah, on the one hand, or Pensaoola, on the
other; either of which places are hundreds of
niiltB from what would probably be the scene
of conflict. I therefore Bay, by all means let
us have a place down there that shall be our
owe, where our mercantile a well as our
cava! vessels can feel that they have some
thing more than a "treaty right" to drop
their mud-hooks, whea necessity or conveni
ence makes it desirable they should do so.
So far as St. Domingo itself is concerned,
if honest old Ben Wade oomes baok and tells
us it is all right, and I have a chance to vote
for it next "town-meeting day," I shall most
assuredly vote "yes," with all my heart; and
bo far as Mr. Sumner is concerned, if he will
but recollect the injunction of Soripture, that
"he that exalteth himsell shall be abased,"
and "he that humbleth himself shall be
exalted," and act accordingly, I will warrant
him to come out far better in the end than
he will if he continues the domineering style
be has practised for some few years past. Oh.
that men would be wise, and not make fools
of themselves, when they happen to fall in
with a prosperous current.
Your obedient servant,
An Illinois Farmer.
