The philosopher-of the New , York Times is the best humorist connected h the press. ' He does not write fuijny paragraph, but he writes es says of a hnmoroas Vein that are quite redehing. His last is on "Musio any uisease. ' TI a s rencn nnvsician hal discovered that "musical i os tra in ents can be used with excellent ef- i in the treatment of many diseases, sj th jecially those, affecting the nervous iiom. .-1 hue, for neural eic naios in head he prescribes a' tuning-fork. e iusiroraent .is held close to the head of the patient and made to vi brate; The immediate effect is that tl b patient becomes drowsy, and bis n etrows less and less, until at the eid of Gfteen minutes it completely disappears and he1 falls into a sweet sliep. The same able - physician has (fund that the sound of a drum stim- ates persons suffering fromnervoas haustionjj and id in many other cases i exoolleut tonic' The time will h : at hand soon "when the shops of ii usical instrument' makers will su p;rcede the drugeiats'- shops, and hen doctors ,will write prescriptions calling for horns and flates instead of rugs aud lotions." Fhe philosopher treats the matter gravely, and refers t to the prescrip- ioii the Court physician gave King Saul, prescribing David's harp, to be akeu three times a day, half an hour before each meal. , It is well known hat unless the ajr is set in vibration here can be do muaioal sounds. It 8 said that during the great plague it Loudon the streets were filled with ingerB.'' Bad music is sure ' to pro-1 mot.- disease . as good, music cures. Such, as we gather, is J the general idea of the philosopher. He is clearly of the opinion that it was the.bacf singing at night whieh produced the plague in London. If tins alarming theory be correct, and who will contradict it, what will be- come of Wilmington ? The plagne or some other fell disease wilt -come inevitably in -,spite of the Board of Health.1' The "troupes of wandering minstrels who make night hideous are enough to produce and disseminate the most , fatal diseases. The tnneb they bellow singing they call it) are enough to cause th& black death .or the white misery, if it be fact; that the vibration, of tfte air is oaased by such tnoes as In the morning by the bright ligbi,? 'radderEpbam cangbi a coon," and Them Golden Slrppers." But after all, . we 'are . eomf orted with the assurance i the i philosopher that where there is no musio there .is no plagne. He says: : f ; ,;.J, i' "The plague baa never j visited countries w here singing and playing oa musical : in struments i unkopwo, and H Jim -proved far more deadly id cities woete iboae prac tices obtain than in -country places ' where mua c 4b seldom f heard. ; What were the nsriicalar song which produced; the grea plagues of Bistory no one; now knows, nut itiote woo listened to the Harvard -psrior-miincef tbeehorusesof ? the J'0BdipusH vta iedily aodersUodlhat the singing : of Greek cboruserln' Athens would fully sc c uai for the plague' so forcibly described y Tbucydides.' ; : " 1 This information is valuable and is to be commended to the - speoial at tention of, oar. municipal j authorities ami the County Board of Health. Buf there ris. one other - point. It is not only singing tbat causes disease, but musical instrument? are said to be highly productive of fearful visi tations. .The philosopher says some instruments are "simply pestilential. But he ta so fall and satisfactory jnst here we must : quote again. He , says feelingly and -finely: ;. s i : "Chief amonz. these is tba cornet.' It fatal icfiuence extends to animals as wsli aa men. xne . Americas pig, has. wilted under the blasts ot the .cornet mea who nave piayea in Chicago and Cincinnati, A few years sgo our pigs were healthy, and VOL, XII. cornet pltjiMg waaarintost umkoowdi Now; tnere are BCOiS4Lcoroet players in every City, and our pigs are so unhealthy that the uemptfcaeenrmadetO' refuse them ad t&ittaicetaEuTopettiCountries. This can not be a mere caiveidenee, ; The ti ue : ex planationor it is that the. peculiar vibra tions of tbe cornet render the air deadly to pigs and. mates the Western pig men rec ogaize this tsctnhey: will sooner or later fladUbat their pigs bave perished, and that the prospeTttv 'of XJhicago and Cincinnati la at sb end. m s He says when Levy introduced the cornet mNew York., the death-rate began to iserease. This is alarming. Where if the remedy ? If Guy Wright's flagiolet and the cornet are dangerous to health Wilmington is doomed, and the people living within 'three squares of the City Hall will the : undiscovered goon pass j "to country.w j INCNPaSVlTABXE TALK A BOOT, r Tbe steady tnoi ease in the cotton crop of the South is not necessarily a sign of pecuniary health. In 1860 the greatest: crop, up to that time, was raised. It amounted 10 4,823,770 bales. In 1880 ; the cropr exceeded this - by . more than 1,500,000 bales. The smallest crop, prior to 1873, after the war, brought a great deal more than tbe largest crop.' If the Southern planters would grow but 4,000,000 bales, they would get more for it than they will get for 6,000,000 bales, pro vided they would not exceei the for mer amount for a term of years. They would then have time to make something for man and beast, y There is less intelligence shown by the plant ers than by any mother class of men. They strain every nerve to make all the cotton they can, when it is cer tain the larger the crop the less price vill be secured. Let 8,000,000 bales made in 1881, and cotton will fetch 7 or 8 cents. ' ; The planters make a large crop of cotton at the expense of all other crops.' They keep their hay j fields and smoke houses m the North. They neglect their stock and have to re plenish from Kentucky, West Vir ginia, Ohio, &iv They think it. wise to; raise but one, crop ajnd. to buy everything ihey cuBsome. . V. Is it a matter -of surprise- 'that the 1 small i- farmers have mortgages on their; crops or . lands, or both, and tbat the large farmers grow, poorer often? Until the South learns two things it will not be great, prosperous, and rich-like the North is. First, it must learn to manufacture its raw material -its cotton, its wool its iron, its woods, &c The profit is in the manufacture. .. .. -.t-WJ v; ; Second, it must raise all that it consumes." . : After TaiBing its breadstuff, stook, &ci it may then wisely make all the cotton and tobacco it can. We again say, that great - cotton , crops are not signs of: thrift. It -costs a great ; deal to make large cotton crops, especially if you go abroad to buy all you consume whilst you are making said crops, i It is Baid the crop of 1881 will be much the largest yet predated. Read tbia from the New York Sun: :Hj; 11 "If the season progresses favorably the Sonihern Stales will nave nearly twice as many bales of cotton to sell this autnma as they raised on the yearly average in the ten years before the war! Emancipation has been, in truth, a great blessing for them." ; It is no sign that emancipation is a blessing because the eottonr cjop-, is BQ much larger than - if was before the war. The South' has it in its ppwer to regulate the price of cotton and to keep-it at from ?Q cents a pouod andnpward It.; has: but to reduce the crop to 4,000,000 bales or less, and keep it there. In three years every1 pound of Southern ! cotton. would fetch 20 cents or ! more.1 The Soath wcoUd then grow rich, for i; it would get r more foe ' the 4,000,000 bales than it- gets for 6,000,000,- and would raise all it consumes, 'thereby saving millions. Bdt you would 1 do a wisely to go. to Bald Head , and sing psalms or preach sermons to the tambUng, Vpjishjrtg a waves v, as sato' preach this lessor , of common 8eq8e to i ther Southern j i cotton raisers. Ephrainr is inlhiairistaace :wedded certainly . to h idol.; Ex-Gorernor;1 Perry," j of South Carolina, says: "The State has c no more right to forbid her citizens con-' verting their peaches and apples ' into brandy, their grsjies into wihe or brandy, aod-heir corn linto- whiskey than he:'ha9 pro tion of corn, peaches apples and grapes.She nayUxi5Jbtrt5 jnot en tirely forbid these industries. . r. !)!; .-JThe LojuisyiUe - (JmrierT Journal, iavprs tbe abolishing of Decoration Day in the North and in the South' AH CONCERNING CATAIiOGVES. 1 i.i VftJs. 't'H A catalogue is nublio Dronertv' en it is sent forth on its mission of Information and electioneering. . It is to be criticized . and judged fairly , and ihelfigently'inst as Vo'u! would appraise a book. We propose to no tice briefly the last catalogue -issued by tbe 'University.' This1 c'atal6gU6 ts got up.on the "titled" plan. Every $ody must be something, even if it is bo more than ; Enquire, and that i?ieaD8 very little you know.! Aside from the injustice done , to several well known gentlemen, it ,bj; not in. simple severe taste to parade titles so conspicuously - in a plain thing ljke f a catalogue.- We1 ''notice that' some gentlemen . have the prefix Hon." who ; have not the - slightest claim upon it according to the best usages that have ipreYaibsd: amngnhe gionine; of ne enUrprtses A. . , .. -t - . i . the true,'s represdntativo-' people of the" South in the pasCAlI men who happen to hold State offices are thus dubbed. ; Then there are. others who J are v ; "Honorables," who. . are placed without it. There is a-Confederate ' Cotonel. v who fc is named i . . .. . . . "Hon.," but who is not entitled to it. Ife appears as simply , "Esq."K .Then there are ..some ;, two or , Uiree .who were not in the war who are paraded as "Colonels." ' There are 'three ex members of the Legislature who have the prefix' "Hon.," but then there are three or four other . mem bers every way . equal, to them who are simply ."Esqis." Why this nn- fortunate discrimination ? i; : : By running after titles confusion aid injustice follow. Men do not. like to be slighted. There is a Cout. L federate - Captain or two who are written down Squires, just as if a gallant soldier of that grade was not deserving of wearing his title. But Captain was too insignificant possi bly. If j all of j.. the: names appeared without any affix or prefix it would be- more simple andtallefal, we( think and, would prevept ; confnsion andi heart-burnings. What must a genu ine live Colonel, who won his spurs on! a dozen hard foughten" battle fields tuink when he v sees himself. trbtted ont amid a host of "Honor ables" and "Colonels" as plain Squire, when, next to him there are gentle men's names with the title "Colonel" prefixed who have been members of the peace establishment all their days and , never did any more . fightinc than did Jack Falstaff at Gad?s Hill or Parolles before Florence ? '" It is a good time to introduce ' a reform in College Catalogues. But, there may be, a protest just here, for. the ordi nary American loves a title better than any flunkey - who ever hong around a noble house or an European Court begging for honors. tThe University catalogue is well printed.
