Apoplexy.
The inline apoplexy is of Greek
origin, and signifies a stroke. The
disease is so called because persons at
tacked by it. are ant to fall suddenly, as
if from a violent mow upon (he head.
Though sudden in outward mani
festation, apoplexy is usually the con
sequence of gradually augmenting
morbid conditions. The disease com
monly understood by this name is an
affection of the brain, caused by an
over distention of the blood vessels, or
their rupture and the consequent effu
sion of blood into the brain substance ;
in either case the pressure upon the
great uerve centres produce paralysis
of the mental and physical powers,
with the consequent loss of conscious
ness and motion. The degree of fatality
depends upon the amount of pressure,
the itnpoitance of the parts involved,
re is
tin* time elapsing before the press
relieved and the occurrence of c<
cation ; of these latter the most common
are inflammation and consequent de
struction o:' the brain tissue, where the
clot from effusion of blood lias been
formed. Should this process take place
to any considerable extent, death is un
avoidable. In flume cases where the
effusion has been hut slight, one of two
*smay take place, the absorption
of the clot or its inclosure by the pro
cess of inflammation in a sack, thus
separated from contact with the brain
In file causes of apoplexy are included
all those which excite undue flow of
blood to the vessels of the brain, such
as a highly nutritious
diet, with but little physical exercise.
The use of alcoholic liquors and various
drugs, such as opium and those of
similar action, which tend to produce
cerebral congestion, among other pre
disposing causes, may lie named a
diseased sta'e of the walls of the blood
vessels which occasion their over dis
tention or rupture, an • diseases of the
brain, by w hich its substance becomes
softened or wasted to such an extent as
to deprive the vessels of their normal
support. The symptoms of this disease
in the lirst stage, before the distention
of the blood vessels lias reached its
cliiii.i*, nr effusion has taken place, are
a feeling of fullness in the head, with
vertigo, pressing, throbbing headache,
red, bloated face, congestion of the
ds of the eyes, oppressed breathing
and hard, rapid pulse. After effusion

are most apt,
the more so as their diet and habits are
of a nature to favor sanguineus con
gestion of the brain. As
prevention of apoplexy all s
as have be
sedulously avoided. The diet should
lie plain and nutri i
lating drinks, even coffee, should be
avoided; abundant physical exercise
should he taken, avoiding exposure to
the heat of the sun, which, duiiug the
heated term, uuder the name of sun
stroke, is a frequent cause of ai*oplexy.
Persons subject to congestion to the
head should be careful to have their
clothing at the neck loose, ho as not to
obstruct the return of blood from the
cranium. Should a person fall in an
apoplectic fit in the absence of a physi
cian, the neck clothing should be
loosened, the head aud upper part of
the body raised in such a manner as
not to bend the neck, and cold appli
cations bo applied to the head. Former
ly bleeding was resorted to in all cases
of sauguiuous congestion, but of late
years this practice has been almost
entirely dropped, partly because it has
beeu found to be productive of more
injury than good, and mostly because
remedies in the form of drugs have
beeu found which accomplish the relief
sought more speedily and without
causing injurious sequences.

A correspondent of the Republican
from Blackbird writes as follows:
The Rev. Mr. Oliver, of the Wyoming
Conference of the M. E Church, has
been visiting his friend, Rev. I). T.
Waddell, ot Blackbird, the past week.
The Rev. Dr. Oliver preached on Sab
bath twice, in the morning at Union
church, and in the afternoon at Friend
ship, to large and attentive congrega
tions.
The sermon was a model for arrange
ment aud diction iu the fore
arguments were clear,pointed and full
of force. The ser
was stirring and eloquent. The people
were delighted with the preaching at
both places.
At the close of the service in the
afternoon the Doctor sang and played
on the organ a piece of music, "on the
immortality of the soul," which drew
tears to the eye of many of the congre
gation. The people will welcome the
Reverend gentleman in their midst,
whenever he may see proper to visit
them again.

Tlie Park Crowded Last Evening—
The I.mni Day of (he Jubilee a
Grand kucceMN.
Yesterday was the last day oftheGer
inan Volks-fest at Seheutzen Park, and
in consequence a large crowd was in at
tendance, those who are capable of
judging putting the figures dow
tween 4,000 and 6,000, and people were
constantly going and coming uutil late
in the. evening. In addition to the
gathering of Germans, many American
citizens were in attendance, and every
one entered into the festivities with a
good will and the last da y of the festi
val was an enjoyable one to all bands.
As usual iu large gatherings of this
kind objectionable characters make
their presence very conspicuous,but the
prompt action of the committee in
charge,aided by the special oilicers,pre
vented them from creating any distur
bance and when a row occurred these
belligerents were promptly ejt clod.
The first Regiment Band furnished
music for tlie merry dancers, and the
pavilion w'as constantly crowded, and
when the German waltzes were in pro
gress, which were the favorites, the
floor w'as literally packed. The Pfeiffer
Harmony Band, of Philadelphia, also
rendered excellent music iron the pa
vilion south of the building.
The colored minstrels attracted gen
eral attention, and when performing
they were surrounded by an immense
crowd. The picture gallery, wheel of
fortune, flying horses, striking ma
chines and other amusements were lib
erally patronized aud all day long
every one appeared to have plenty to do.
Sauer-kraut, beer, and other refresh
ments disappeared as if by magic, and
a thriving trade was done at all the
stands. The shoot ing gallery was kept
in constant operation and some exciting
contests took place. Among the crack
shots were Chris. Bauer, Charles H.
McWhorter, .and J. P. Theodore Fuekel.
The foot race between Mr. Fuekel and
officer Townsley was quite exciting,
and the two men, being heavily built.,
went puffing and blowing along the
course and came in on the home stretch
like steam engines. The officer won
the race amid loud applause. Annie
Iieyerlein, only eight years old, caught
the sheep in the race gotten up for the
amussment of children, hut w\ s unfor
tunate enough to lose it ou her way
home, it having broke the string around
its neck aud escaped.
The "dude " foot race, between Jones
and Johnson, was an interesting con
test, and was won by Jones. The
wheelbarrow race, and other festivities
were highly interesting, aud the race
track was filled with fast steppers all
the afternoon.
Mrs. F. Scheu was accidently ran
against and painfully injured, but Dr.
Ogle being summoned, applied the
proper remedies, and the lady was con
veyed to her homo in a carriage. The
festival kept up until af er midnight,
and closed, after a run of three days,
with great satisfaction u» every one, its
:ess exceeding the expectations of
the sanguine. Great credit is due those
having the matter in charge, as well as
to those who aided iu making the allair
a grand success.

—The .second day of the exhibition at
this place dawned bright and clear, and
the weather was much pleasanter than
the opening day,in consequence of which
the attendance was largo, there being
between 800 and 1,000 people ou the
grounds. The exhibits are all in posi

were appointed to act as judges of fancy
work, preserves, jellies, etc., were kept,

Planning Work.
Even in hou rework the brain may
save the body a great deal of labor. A
woman who plans her work beforehand
always accomplishes a great deal more
than her less methodical sister, and
w irli less fatigue to herself. Before she
rises in the morning her day's duties
are thoroughly arranged, aud the order
in w hich the different details are to be
carried out is quite decided upon. It
makes all work easeir to have it thus
planned beforehand , and many a weary
i many bright half
hours to herself every week if she would
but inaugurate the system. It is like
packing a trunk. How easy it is for one
skilled in the business to pur. in a third
more than one who throws tilings to
gether just }*t they come ! It is a pleas
ure to look back oil a well-planned day
and see what has been done. People
whose days are full of idleness aud ease
do not have the monopoly of happiness
byany means. Those who have nothing to
do except make themselves comfortable
are generally peevish and discontented.
