An Albany physician ha* discovered
litat many of the neuralgic disease* of
(ho head arc due to wrongly adjusted
ejegla?*es and spectncles. It in astonishing
that the organ which we use the
moat and is of the highest value to us,
to wit: our eye.*, is the one which inmost
abused. Many peo^'e are short sighted
and arc not awaro of it; with others the
time has cotne when tlicy should wear
glasses, they arc troubled with pain in the
eyes and with wearing i of night, which
they attribute to colds, neuralgia, catarrh,
anything but the right cause. And
it now appears that maladjusted glasses
are the cause very often of intense neuralgic
pains in the face and head. If
phyaicians were not ?o afraid of losing
castc by advertising there is a good and
useful work to he done in overhauling
the light of people who have pawed middle
life and whose vision in more or lean
nflected. It would ho well for persona
alllicted with neuralgia cnj>eciully, to *ee
if the trouble is not due to defects in the
medium through which they pee the
world about them.
I'roMpcets <>1 More Harmony
Among <htt Doctor*
The jealousies and rivalries existing in
thin country between allopathic and
homu'apathic physicians arc maintained
without eijjnH of abatement, but a correspondence
in a late number of the London
Lancet fchowa that in Kwgland ellorts
are l*ing made for the purpose of doing
away with this jarring. The principal
parties in this movement are Dr. llichardrfon,
F. It. 8., a Ughly distinguished
nractitioner of llip Rn-mlliwl "Rftwnlfir
School," and Dr. "VVylil, the Vice Presi- j
dent of the British Homoeopathic Society.
The initiatory steps havo been
Uken by the latter, who in his communications
says that "the nocallcd
homoeopaths have almost entirely
abandoned the use of globules, and
havctflubstiutted^doces in tangible form.
We do not write honK&opnlhist on our
door-platee; many of our test hooka eliminate
the name homeopathy from the
title-page; and, as an example, u largo
number oi our body have objected, in a
memorial, to the title "Homoeopath ic
School." On the other hnnd, lie etatea
what generally seems to be conceded, that
"the heroic* of the past in the treatment
of ncu to disease," have been renounced by,
the ablest medical men, irrespective of
classification. Dr. "Wyld then k*vc? a
platform upon which lie thinks the two
diverse schools could unite. I n substance
this is us follows:
"First, that the views expressed by I
Hahneman are often extravagant anil
incorrect. Second, that 1 lippocrates waB
right when ho said, 'Some diseaaea are
best treated by similars, and some by
contraries,1 and therefore it is unwise and ]
incorrect to assume the title of honiteopathist.
Third, that although many believe
that the action of the infinitesimal
in nature can be demonstrated, its uso in
medicine is practically (by a large number
in this country) alt but abandoned.

In 1S75 three more voted were polled
in thin county in the Gubernatorial election
than wan polled thus year. Allen received
that year 4.5SS vote?. Fanning,
the Democratic candidate for Clerk of the
Supreme Court, nnd who probably received
nearer the party Democratic vote
than any other candidate, received this
year 4,575 votes--thirteen votea Jens than
Allen received in 1S73. The aa we year
the Republican vote for Hayes wan 4,514;
this year Crowcll, for Clerk of Supreme
Court, received 4.110 vote*
Thi* state of facta shows that the Democrats
did not increase their vote, and
that on the aatue basis over 400 Republicans
of the county failed to ca.it their
ballots. This will, to a large extent, explain
why tho Republican tarty wa*
beaten in this county this Fall.

There aro political and social anatters;
of a very important nature which depend
upon the proportion of raalen to females
in the population. For many years the
general tendency linn !?een toward an excess
of female*; nnd if the slat fallen of
the recent past nrc to bo accepted as a
key to the future, it in not unlikely tlmt
by iln< time the population number* AO,*
000,000, there will be 1,000.000 more women
than men. Hut in social or economical
question* it is even dangerous nnd
fallacious tonttempt to adduce conclus|
ioim to a mathematical form. Three elements
may com? into play, the extent
nnd force of which can not lie antieipa!
txl or estimated, and there is no certain!
ty whatever that the condition* which
produced n known result in the past
will remain the come result in the future.
The most that can Ik done i? to
state the probabilities.
In the Atlantic nnd Gull Southern
States there is a surplus of females of
107,220,of which about 07,000 arc negro
i.. tiw. WoMt..- iv,,.
male* exceed tlic while females, but there
are 12,000 more colored females than
colored lualet*. The Northern Atlantic
.State* have 140.283 more females than
men; Rhode Inland, with its population
of about 1100,000, giving an cxcesii of
5000 females, or #1 the rate of three per
cent! Much oI thin (Impurity ha* been
due to the war and to emigration
and migration. Dut even if there
wan no war the incroaae of fetnaleA
would he marked and decided. Migration
from the older sottled State# to the
newer peopled State* accounts to a considerable
extent for the figure.- presented
by the former in regard to the excesa of i
females: but the returns of the Western j
folates tio not balance the loss of the1
New England nnd Atlantic States. A
great drain on the vitality of those who
migrate is inevitable through tlie change
of climate and the condition* of existence.
It has long been estimated that
fully ono third of those who undertake
nionecr work dio in the first decade,
l'he census of 18S0 will, it is thought,
present a still further excess of females.
Hut besides what may be called peculiarly
American inllucnces, which will become
of less force as the country grows
older, lbere-nttun the United States, ns
active as in European countries, causes
which arc most potent in reducing the
mimlipr nf in nip*
The struggle for^ existence fall* most
j heavily upon the male population.
There in a growing reluctance to marriage
on account of the great and inereaping
expense which it entail*. Habits
of life arc engendered which nap the
healthy and vigorous growth of the popillation.
Year by year the female portion
must contribute, therefore, mere to
their own support as the ditliculty of procuring
husbands increases.

the past week we ever saw. The
cabbages were of extraordinary size and

colors. Among over four thousand heads

peppers were two inches ntul a half in diameter
and three inches and over long,?
perfect beauties and of two colors. Mr.
JJodeman proved by the tiue specimen of
cauliflower submitted, that this delicious
vegetable can be grown to perfection in
our latitude bv scientific treatment. The
radishes weighed a pound ami a half and
over. They were jucy, tender and perfectly
free from weedy liber. Some beautiful
ppccimensof endivo, (winter lettuce)
were submitted. Mr. Bodeman raised
also nine bushels and a half of lima beans
from four and a fourth square rods of
ground. In our description of the County

yields of the garden were described. A
better man than Mr. B. for tho place he
occupies certainly could not be found.
The Tunnel Beneath tiie British
Channel.?operations connected with
the submarine tunnel have already been
commenced on the opposite side of the
channel, several pita having been Bunk to
the depth of about one hundred and ten
yard*. At the same time the French and
English committees have definitely drawn
up the conditions of working for the
route. The property of the tunnel is to
bo divided in half by the length? that is
to sajr, cach company will posesshalfof
the line, reckoning the distance from line
to line at low tide. Each company will
cover the expense of its portion. Tlioi
general work of excavation will be done
on the one hand by the Great Northern j
of France, and on the other by the Chatham
nnd Southeastern companies, the
two latter having each a direct route from
London to Dover. All tho material of
the French and English linea will pass
through tho tunnel in order to
prevent any unnecessary expenses and do1
lay of transhipment, aa in Engand and
in France railway companies use each
other's lines, and goods can pass from one
line to another without changing vans.
It is understood that nn arrangement
will be established for a similar exchange
of lines between all the English and continental
railway companies when the tunnel
is completed. The tunnel will belong
to its founders. At the expiration of
