    SELECT MISCELLANY.
RENTAL HALLUNCINATIO.N.
One of the daughter' of a &rally
named V—, a very beautiful and
Interesting girl, had entirely lost the
use.of herlimbsfist nearly three years.
and was obliged to be fed and tended
like a child. Her mind was acute
and clear, however. and as at that
time the celebrated Prince Hohenioe
was performing, by his prayers, some
cures which seemed miraculous, her
father entered Into correspondence
with him to see if anything could be
done for ,the daughter. The distance
of some thousand miles lay between
the Prince abd his patient; but he
undertook to pray and say mint for
he on a certain day and at a certain
huge, and directed that miiss should
/also be celebrated In the city where
/ she resided, exactly at the same me
merit. As the longitude of the two
plane was; very di ff erent, a great dell
of, fuss was:made to ascertain the
Precise time. All this excited her
_lrnagination a good deal, and at the
hour appointeti tbe whole family
went to mass, leaving her alone and
In bed. On their return, they found
Miss V—, who, for years, had not
been able to stir hand or foot, up,
dressed, and In the drawing room.
She was perfectly cured.
A friend of my youth, poor Mr.
B—, lost his only son in a very la
mentable manner. He had two
clilldren—this son and n daughter.
Both *ere excedingly handsome,full
ortalent and kindly affections; and
the two young people were most
wzongly attached to each other.—
Suddenly the health of young 13--
was observed to decline. He became
grave, pale,intd; and emaciated. His
parents took alarm, physicians were
sent for; no corporeal disease of any
kind could be discovered. The due.
tort declared, privately, that there
must be something on his mind, as
It is culled, and his father, with the
utmost kindness and tenderness, be

of fortime or Influent* could give him
relief, his wishes should be amen].
'plished, whatever they might be.
"You can do nothing for me, my
dear father," replied the young man,
Sadly; "but you deserve my con&
dunce, and I will not withhold it.—
That which As destroying me is want
of rest. EVery nighiabout an hour
after I lie down, a figure dried in
white very like the figure of my
'dear sister, g'ldes into the room, and
seats itself on the right side of my
lasi, where it remains all night. If
I inn asleep at thelime of its coming,
I am sure to wake, and remain awake
all night, with my • eyes fixed up
on it. I believe it to be a delusion;
but 1 cannot banish it; and the mo
ment . it appiews I • am completely
under its influence. This .is what is
killing me." •
The father reasoned withlim, and
took every Means that could be de
vised, either by friends or physicians.
to dispel the sad iihantasy: They
gave parties; they sat up late; they
changed the scene; but it,. was all in
vide: The figure still returned, and
the young man became more and
more feeble. He was evidently dy
ing, and 1113 a last resource it was
determined to have recourse to a
trick to produce a strong effect upon
his mind. The plan was arranged as
follows: His sister was to dress in
white, as he had represented the
figure to be dtiOsed,.and about the
hour he mentioned, to steal into his
room, and seat herself on the other
side of the hod, opposite to the posi
tion which the phantom of his imagi
nation usually meupied,' while the
parents remained near the deer to
hear the result. She undertook the
task 'timidly, but executed it well.
Stealing in with nbisoless tread, she
approached her brother's bedside,
and, by the faint.' oonlight, saw his
eyes fixed with unnatural stareupon
vacancy, but directed to the 9kher
side. She seated _herself without
the least noise andivaited to seteif he
would turn his eyto toward her.j He
did not stir in the least, however,
bit lay as If petrified by the eight
• his fancy presented. At length she
Made u alight movement to attract
his attention and her garments rus
tled. Instantly the young man turned
his eyes to the loft, pied at her—
looked Lick to the right—gazed at
her again, and exclaimed, almost
with as shriek: "Good God I :there
are two of them !"
He odd no Inure.. Hissisterdarted
up to him... The father and mother
ran in with lights, but the effect had
been fatal. Ile was dead.
Nor Is that the only case in which
I have known the most detrimental
results occur from persons attempting
+•sdisereetly to net mum the minds of
le sick while In a very feeble state.
I 'dee, indeed, all the medical men—
and they were among the most fam

Mai:Ting to one of the chief hospitids
of &Unhand', were at fault hi a sim
ilar manner. The ISC was this: A
poor woman of Leith had married a
sailor to whom she was very much
attached. They had one or two
children, and were by no means in
good circumstances. The man went
to sea in ptirsuit of his usual avoca
tions, and at the end of two or three
mouths intelligenee wits remived in
Leith of the lass of the vessel with
all on board. Left in penury with
no means of supporting her children
but by her own hard labor, the poor
woman, who was very attractive,
was persuaded to marry a man ton
sidembly older than herself, but in
very tolerable eiremnstanms. Ilv
111111 she had one child; anti in the
' summer of 1789, she was sitting on
the broad, open way, tolled Leith
walk, with u lathy on her lap. Sud
denly she beheld her first husixind
walk up the street directly toward
her. The man recognized her in.

her. But she neither answered nor
moved. She was struck with eat*.
lepsy. _ln this state she was roomy
ed to the Royal Intiratary, and her
case, from the singular circumstances
attending it, excited great interest
in the medical fraternity in . Edin
burgh, which at that time numbered
among Its professors the celebrated
Cullen, and uo leas celebrated Grego
ry. The tale was related to net by
one of their pupils, who WWI present,
and who assured me everything was
done that science could suggest, 6111
all the ordinary remedial means were
exhausted. The prior woman remain

whatever position the body was
placed,there it remained; the rigidity
of the Muscles was such that when
the arm was extended, twenty min

by its weight. Dinah was inevitable
unless some mans could be devised
of arousing the mind to some •.•.?tive
operation of the body. From various
indications it was Judged that( the
poor woman WAS, perfectly sensible,
and at a consultation of the first phy
vicious of the city, the first hu.shand
was sent for, and asked If he were
willing to co-operate, in order to give
his poor wiGi a chance for life. He
replied, with deep feeling, that ho
was willing, to lay down his own life,

perfectly satis fi ed with ' her conduct;

PAYMENT OF PENSIONN.
The expenses of our Pension Bur
reau have increased nmidlY, as might
have been expected from the magni
tude of the ciil war And the vast
multitudes of v men in our armies,
with the corresponding numbers
wounded, disabled or, slain. t We
have at present fifty-nine pension•
agents, for the whole and exclusive
purpose or paying the pensions due
to the soldiers or their, families. It
has lately been proposed In Congress
to make the service less expensive,
and at the same time more efficient.
That is, it Is desired to render it less
troublesome for the recipient to
ob
tain,the money, and less expensive
to the government to • pay it. The
present system costs $2a0,000 a year,
and Ise sourceof univensalcomplaint
from all quarters. We 'pay out $BO,-
000,000 annually to these pensioners.
In England pensions are told through
the post offices without risk or trou
ble, and the system works well. It
has been proposed to substitute this
system here for our present cumbrous
expensive and inefficient one. It
would only cost 8172,800 to pay
through the internal ' revenue ser
vice ; but It would cost much, less
through the post office. , We subjoin
an Interesting statement on this sub

'l',lle plan ream:mended by the Sec
retary of the Interior in 1863 was to
require the national banks to dis
charge the duties of pension agents,
and letters were received at the De•
part meat from many of these bunks
expressing a willingness to perform
the duties without charge to the gov
ernment. He repeated this recom
mendation the following year, and
im doubt the change'would have been
made and the expense'all saved but
for the exertions of the parties con
cerned in the continuance of the old
system. There being, sixteen hun
dred and twenty hankii and only Ilf
ty-nine pension agents, it stands to
reason that the new system• would
bring the service down nearer to the
pensioner than the old one. Mr.
Lawrence, of Ohio - has introduced at
the present session of Congress a bill
to reform the service; which, he
clahns, will produce the following re
sults:
1. That It will cost the govermitent lass
than that now In operation, and loss than
that of the Committee of Pensions.
2. It will satellie pensioners annually
414,000,000 now paid to claim ay,ents, and
save teem $384.600, now paid for fees of
pension, agents, notaries' and postage.
3. It will save tho pensioners the delay,
trouble, and inconveniences of the pres.
cut system. • - •
4. It will secure quarterly•payments to
pensioners, and thereby save them a vast
amount now paid for Interest on money
borrowed, or by discount on pensions.. .
5. It will furnish a means of detecting
frauds on the pension laws, which will
dispense with the heavy annual appro.
priations, for that purpose, and will save
more than the cost qt the whole system.
by detecting frauds on the pension laws.
As regards the transaction of this busi
nem by the post-441ms, Mr. Lawrence thus
briefly states the vast transactions absorb
Lai by the English postal services:
"The post-office department In England
long agtindvantml from its original busi
ness of cairyind letters lit
_high rates to
the penny postage systCm, then to the
currying of books and parcels, then to the
money order system, then to the business
of savings banks, then to the issue of oo-
unities and life insuntnce policies, and re
cently it !MS secured telegrapliii: commit.
nits Lion to nil the'people at a vastly re
ducal cost.
"There are in England thirtysix Lun
dred money order uIIICeS i ln all the prig•
cipal towns and villages, and the funds
they transmit, sent with perfect safety,
hare grown to $90,000,000 yearly."
The present Postnnister General of
the United States has reported
against the transaction of thepen
sion business throttglithe post-0111mi
as likely to Cost more , than the exist
ing system. Mr. Lawrencethuscon
denses the outlines of his plan :
"I have urged that some tinker or bank
should be selected, so litr us is necessary,
in every county: that the Commissioner
f Pensions should furni4ll to each officer
or bank a list of pensioners, with their
post:office address in the county where
such officer residea or such bank is Ioca•
ted ; that the Commissioner of Pensions
should transmit 'to such officer or bank a
cheek on the nearest assistant: Treasurer
of the United States or bank designated as
s public depository, payable to the order
of each peusloner, to be delivered when
the proper voucher is executed and on
production of the proper pension ear titi•
cute; and 1 propose to make it the duty
or such officer to prepare the vouchers and
administer oaths, all without cost to the
pensioner. (11 SUM :127; Stat..%) ; acts
June 14, Iffiffi, and Aiigust 0, 1846.) And!
a anld devolve this duty on all such officers
without additional compensation."
If the views of • Mr. Lawrence
upon 'proper examination, to be 8114-
eeptible of being carried out, at a
saving to the government, Congis
should certainly make the trial.
Tut: Secretary of State appeared before
the House Committee on Foreign Affairs,
last week, and gave them much valuable
information, especially in regard to the
relations of this Government with those
of Madrid. Secretary Fish was asked if
lie had received any offer, or heard of any
offer-having beer. made to any other mein.
tier of this Administration, fromthe Mad.
rid officials, proposing to sell to the Unit-z
ed States the island of Cuba for a certain
sum therein named; and he replied that he
had no such intormation,inil was satisfied
fiom other factli in his - possession that the
Spanish regency had contemplated noth
ing 'of the kind. Friendly relations exist
ed between Spain and ,the United States,
and the former had alwhyi shown the
strongest desire to satisfy the demands of
the United States Gortrnment in every
particular. He also stated that both Gov
ernments are now engaged In negotiations
which, it Is trusted, will result in a satis
factory solution Of the whole lineation, and
which might be defeated .or retarded by
anything like an unfriendly exhibition of
hostility. lie denied that there was any
cause or justititsitiou for our intervention
at present, and that if we only patiently
bide our time Cuba would gain her lade.
pendence by consent of Spain. lie denied
that there were any outrage or insults to
our flag which had not been properly ex
plained or redressed, or any excuse for
tinding fault with Spain. He thought tho
annexation of Cubit to the United States
would lose us over thirty' million dollars
of customs per annum, without any cot ,
responding benefit to the United !Mato.
He said thatif Cuba were independent
her trade with the United Stake would be
largely increased. The Committee were
somewhat impressed with these views, but
did not evince any intention of changing
their determination to take same specitiz
action to demonstrate their sympathy with
Cuban independence.

The war, thank Clod, his now
passed.—Rceonstructlon Is u fixed
fact, and good men's fears are not
that the Government will ha lost
from enemies without, but that .It
will 10 destroyed by corruptionists,
like yourself, from within. •The.
office of State Treasurer has beconie
one of the mediums through . which
you and yonr confederates have bold
ly corrupted State pohitiva, debauch
ed both political parties, and out
raged the people at large. It b 3 no
secret at Harrisburg that every, inah,
probably, save one, who has held the
Ohm of State Truisnrer since 1860,
and many before that day, purchased
or by some dishonorable means pro
cured, the vote of a sufficient number
of members to elect him before the
cailcus was milled. The • caucus sys-
tem of nomination; which Is a pro
tection for party organization, has,
'under your management, become a
gigantic machine, moved and eon
'trolled by bad men, to perpetrate
stupendous villlanies. The break
ing up of this organization by any
means and by all tmluts WM not only
a public duty, but a private virtue,
and your indignation at titwitt who
broke it up, is the beg evidence of
their virtues. By mains of the mu
cus the candidates for State Treasurer
are forced by you and your lager,
and your co- conspirators, to expend
thousands of dollars to obtain the
place r or to give the whole treasury
untie State to be used for venal pur-
postis.—There Is no attempt to keep
this fact a secret. You have been an
active dealer in such business for
more than ten, yearmi, managing in
that time (for before -that time you
were cem — patittitfelta poor man) to
amass an: Mistletoe — fortune, and
which by far the. greater portion
thereof, hy this and other legislative
and governmentitt, radcalities; has
come out of the pocketsof the tax
payers or cororations' that sought
legislation at Harrisburg. All those
gains were accumulated to gorge the
avarice and greed of the vile body of
men that the best meil in Pentisylva
, nia now look upon is .the greatest ' criminals of the age. ' I do not assert
that in the sale of the office of State
Treasurer, Senators and. Representa
tives, as a genera thing, have per
sonally "stepped up to the captain's
office" and offered themselves for
sale, or that in all cases they can
show the profits of this disreputable
traffic. In 'this business the magic
power is controlled "in the wheel
within a wheel," shah as you- man
aging to sell the votes of new mem
bers, screwing up their fears and am
bitions to become members of com
mittees or promises of offices for time
support of Senators' and Beprc.4enta
fives votes in elections of retisurers
and pther legislative commodities.
The men thnabarteredfor,ln many
aisea before' they left imomne, were ig
norant of knowing it, or feared for
their private legislation and for their
reputation in your paper too much to
complain of it. Your frowns and
your flatteries, and those of your
backers, have had u potential influ
ence. Your paper bus been used its a
straw to tickle or tingle their tors, or
as a penny whistle to 'please their
fatal', or to damn them amongst
their tiansti.uents. Hundretis, fnot
thousands, have been bound hand
and foot, and voted to subserve the
ends of your frauds.
You could tell us now, Heorge
Bergner Wyatt would, the state of
the neg otiations of the raid of seven
millions upon tile treasury now to

charge will come down
_gracefully,
their bill will succeed. If the y ito
not,you willcrush it out,and unblush

urcs thatyou have received from the
National,,,State and Dauphin county
treasuries, In ten years, the sum of
$396,806.
Nor is this all. You have had a
profit on all the coal furnished to the
State of Pennsylvania, for the use In
the Capital for the same ten years.
You undoubtedly made money in
furnishing the-Legislature with pos
tage stamps (of which I will speak in'
detail) when you were postmaster—
so that, aggregating all the profits
you' have, reaped from all,the public
treasuries into which you could
plunge your arm, it •is safe to put
down your total of clear gains, hide
pendent of your Legislative Jobs, in
ten years, at $2750001 And. you are
not done or satisfied even now, be
cause you still have a monopoly of
the patronage of tho clerks of both,
branches of the Legislatute; and 'all
the dersartlnents of the State Govern
wont, are Postmaster; and do all ;the

not less than $0,090 aumually I. You
allow no other Itepahlicen to claim a

you loan them (their own money) at
usurious Interest. -: • • . • •
What can the masses of the Repub.
Bean party think of this picture?
gain my knowledge of the amounts
'of money you drew from the Shit()
Irma the reports of the Auditiir Gist
eml. On one occasion, after you had
been paid an account to which you
had sworn, it was discovered that
you had 'lndolently drawn more
than you were entitled to. and were
compelled to return the State the sum
of which_you sought to cheat it, and
it was no easy job to compel you to
disgorge. My information as to your
other receipts of public money, I Ire
have, is correct and- reliable. You
may have been in secret SCIWIllei of
plunder outside of your law selling,
with which I am not acquainted.
You certainly engage as a constant
borer in the lobbhm 01 the Legislature,
where you lass your time durin,l the
stbision of that body, instead of re
maining in the Harrisburg Post Of
fice, attending to the duties you thus
neglect, and for which you receive
an annual salary of several thousand
dollars. The Postmaster General
ought to know that the Post Otilceat
❑arrisburgls, /o all intents'itnd pur
pose, conducted without the presence
of its legally appointed Postmaster;
one whom nine-tenths of .the decent
.and respectable Itepublituns of this
'city repudiate, and whaif they had
the power, Would hurl you from the
position you disgrac . hi conclusion,
Deacon Bergner, let me whisper in
your ear, and suggest that before you
go hence, you sell your ill-gotten
lands and newly-constructed blocks,
and have the proceeds ready to de
posfte in the ample pockets of your
shroud, and in a strong 'iron safe in
your grave, wherein to tempt St. Pe
:ter,' as you have often tempted mem
bers of the legislature, and be prepar
ed to clontthe Devil, as this is mani
festly the bed use you are likely evtir
to make of it.
As I intend to beaS radical on theives
in peace as I was on rebels during
the war, I shall continue this subject.
I am, Deacon, as ever, faithfully
yours, Monnow B. Lower.
Resumption not Neeespis;rily
demption.
The N. Y. Tribtthe pertinently ob
serves: To make the Greenbacks
equal to coin is one thing ; to have
them all presented for payment is
quite another. The Gold Certitieutes
are and ever have been redeemable
ut pleasure in coin; wherefore very
few of them are presented for relemp
tion. Knowing that he has only to
step to the Sul.Wrreasury and have
the gold countea out to him,' the
holders rarely or never think of do
ing anything of the sort. Why
would it be otherwise with the Green
backs? We believe it would not be
—that the people like them, and will
largely prefer them 114' currency to
any other paper. In fact we believe
convertibility to beone thing needed
to give them a widecliculation in the
mining States and Territories, where
gold attracts notice and invites rob
bery ; whereas one may carry $lOO,-
000 in paper without being known to
have $lOO. We know, from our own
receipts, that Greenbacks are to-day
favorite) even in Arkansas and Texas;
were they redeemable in coin A l tair
Sub Treasury, they would be worth
more than, twin ateither Virginia city
Salt Lake, Ilelenai'or White Pine.
Andve trust that,havin,g made them
equal in value to Mu, the Govern
ment will continue to pay them out
as well as redeem them, and thus
keep up their circulation. Then,with
Free Banking and nn ample deposit
of Government Bends, we shallhave
as much currency as we now have,
' with the important ditferenev that
part of it consists of coin and the rest
is equal in value thereto.
—The exact value of a human lift:
has at last been fixed hi Boston. ' A
druggist at the "latb," , who killed
one of his customers, by giving hini
laudanum instead of rhubarb, has
le•en tried, found guilty and seldom
:Nl to my a tine of $450. I This is cer
tainly cheap, and reminds one of the
witty Frenchman's reflection on the
unfairness of the law. Said the huui
erous son of France: "If I shoot or
stab a druggist, I am guillotined; if
a druggist poisons-me, he Is only
tined."

For the extinctleit of Stitvery and the

indeed a cheap Ftiay. But had it
not been for the hornless depravity
of the political enders of the rebell
ion, these great advantages might
have been attained without this al
west inconceivable loss of the re

Christianity, but the plainest truisms
of politiml economy and every dic

reprobate the motives and the measu
res of the inscuittlionists. If ever a

Some eight Years ago it was con
