Mrs. Edison, the wife of the groat inventor, is said to be the most extrav agantly dressed woman in New Yerk. TheTiOuisville Poly technical society feels mighty grand over the recent acquisition of Kit Carson's swor I, sash and letter book.

Dr. Jokn Hall, of New York City, is said to receive $20,000 a year salary, besides a house rent free, and S5,000 from Robert Bonner for a weekly article. A country editor says if as many people knew how to pay their sub scriptions as well as they know how to run a newspaper, editors would have an easier time of it. Has the inventor of the Keely mo tor made any provision for giving to the public the beuefit of his secret ? He may not live more than a hundred years, and it will be sad if the world should ever after have to travel by costly steam and electricity between Philadelphia and New York inst'd of doing the journey with half a pint of water. The Denver Medical Times, notic ing that typhoid fever has returned to the city, hopes that the aldermen will be haunted, without no ev2a a cloud or a pillow of fire to protect them antil they shall have done their duty. It must be some years since the editor read the aajtstic thirteenth and four teenth chapters of Exodus. Anthony Comstock, of New Yerk, says that in 1877, soon after he made a raid on the lottery dealers, J. M. Pattee, whose schemes of games he had broken up, offered him S20.000 if he would let up on him.

MottV horse has been to the postoffics, one mile distant, so much that he knows how to do the business himself. Every day, therefore, he goes alone and faithfully returns with the mail. When the horse arrives at the post office Postmaster Kelsey buckles a j leather bag to the saddle, when the animal goes directly to his master's house. Arriving there he waits until some one comes out of ttje house and gets the leather bag. Then the horse goes to the stable. The younger and newer members of congress are forming a club for the purpose of enforcing their rights in the House where the older members snub and squelch them at every opportuni ty. It is feared that Boone Isaacs, the "Hillsboro, 111., juror who was, on ren dition of the verdict in the Emma Bond case, discarded by the young lady to whom he was engaged, will go insane from grief. Not one of the six congressmen from California was born in that state Tully is a native of Teuuessee, Glass cock of Mississippi, Henley of Indi ana, Rosecrans of Ohn, Budd of Wis consin, and Sunnar of Massachusetts. California newspapers, summing up the statistics of the Goldo state's pro gress in the thirty-six years siuce Sut ter electricfied the world with his dis covery, say that the state's agricultur al pioduct has risen until it has thrown the auriferous metal into the shade, being now about 1000,000. 000 a year. The fruit product alone almost equals that of the mines, and now tht a court has decided ag inst hydraulic mining, it may be prophe sied that wine making and silk culture will ere long be more important in dustries than gold seeking. In a sermon at jN"ew York, Sunday, the Rev. Dr. Deuns said he had rea son to believe the story of Jonah and the whale, as he himself while travel ing in Egypt had seen a whale in whose bosom the skeleton of a man was found. Judaf P. Benjamin ussuies a cor respondent in Paris that he never, in 1860, wrote to the British consul at New York proposing that southern states should renew their allegiance to Great Britain, and that Great Britain should see them through. It is estimated that Missouri has coal enough to last the world two thousand years, and that the Upper Peninsula" of Michigan has iron enough to last ihe world two thous and years. If these things be so, olio's" afeard ? Who expects to live two thousand years? Says the Rockwall Tex., Success: The Sedalia Bazoo, J. West Good win's excellent paper, should be in the hands of everybody interested in a a live, progressive journal. It is the only newspaper in Missouri that keeps red hot when the thermometer freezes. Here is a story, good, if not new, whether it be true or not, about Horace Greeley and a college pro fessor, who it seems, had been argu ing with Mr. Greeley until he was all tired out, and at last said, "You must admit that the Greek and Latin are the conduits tluough which ail the learning of the j'ueieuts f iine down to The great and truly good Kiusas City Times will now have the floor for a few moments. Attention : The Sunday newspaper question is still rag ing in eiedalia. "Look for a moment," says an aggressive clergyman, "at the effect of the Sunday paper. If the children are up in time, they read it before going to Sunday school. I know of many children who never read the paper on any other day of the week, who eagerly devour the Sunday papr. Sunday school over, they do not remaiu at church ; they hasten home to finish reading the society news, the descriptions of parties and entertainments, and the dresses worn' This comes of the pernicious practice of attempting to pabllsh a descriptiou of toilettes, which falls under the gen eral head of works of fiction. Now the Times displays prominency for the benefit of the children every Sabbath morn'ng a dei.annient headed "Re ligious Reading' but we have never heard of any children being late at Sunday school from loo close atten tion to its interesting details. This is not the fault of the paper. It seems never to have occurred to the worthy pastor that if he would make his ser vices intsiesting there would not be such a general rush of innocent child hood for the daily paper. Because a minister preaches a dull sermon, it does not follow that we must get out a In which thou dost enwrap thy mor al self ?

The Warrensburg Journal-Democrat rises te remark : "The preachers of Sedalia, at a rrcenr meeting, decid ed to sit down on the Sunday morning papers. They say in their resolutions that the reading of secular papers on Sunday is detrimental to the spiritual interests of the church, and that here after they will not furnish the Sunday paper with notices of Sunday services But they will. They are simply mis taken when they say they will not. Preachers are just l'ke other men. They want to get all out of this life that there is in it. They have all the vanity, clanishreFS and egotism of other men. Whun they fail to prior their notices, they will find their con grpgftiions dropping 08.

The party boarded the express Thursday night and went to Jefferson Cily, where they had to lay over until 7:30 next morn ing, when they took a 'bus for the ferry, which is about a mile above the city. After a half hour's ride over hills and hol lows they reached the ferry boat and were rapidly transferred over the B. Mudy to Ctrd?r City. Wheu the 'bus started on the boat, the old nrgresa. who had never seen a boat, concluded she was going to be 1 drowned, and FOUGHT LIKE A TIGER, and yelled louder than a band of Coman che Indians. Her cries stirred Mrs. Gold up, and the deputies had about all they could manage for about ten minutes. At Ceilar City they took the C. & A. road, aud in a short time were in Fu'tn Fulton is one of the oldest towns in the state. It has about 3,000 inhabitants, and the best streets of any town in Missouri. It has several good schools, and, besides the insaue asylum, the deal and dumb asylum is located' thert The insane asylum was shortly reached, when the party was met by Dr. A Wilke-son, vice president of the asylum and physician in charge of the fe male department, v. ho took charge of the two insane women. Dr. W. A. Titsner, physician in charue of the male depar iueiil, examined the yountr man and KSFL'SED TO ADMIT HIM to the institution, stating his reasons for so doing were that his insanity whs of more than a year's standin&pacd that he was an incurable case. He said th law com manded them to give the prferKre tr cm tibitr ca&es and cases o si.rt s.nui:g, and they already hud seventy-lire more than they could conveniently accommo date. He also stated that if the next le? ir- ' Ixlure did not make au appropriation lor of au addition lo the j asylum that they would be compelled to force the uinerent counties to take back most of lhir old chronic easea. The asylum is a beautiful structure. It is five sorits high ami has three great wings reaching out the east, west aud ?oi!th, and a small addition about one hun dred yards wtst of :lu main buildins. 1 h;'re are twenty-four different wards in the ttsyhim. of which thirteen are occupied by males and eleven hy fema'es. The deputy's reijiKst to be shown through the asylum W"s kindly granted. Drs. Titsner and Young, the physicians (in charge of the male department, acted ns escorts and the deputy meekly followed, accompanied by Mr 15. P. Bailey, the gentlemanly cashier of the asylum. Mr. Conner said: "We entered on our mission at room No. 1 of the THE MALE DEI'AltTMEST and I was more than astonished at the ele gance before us. Tlie hall is about 200 feet long, beautifully frescoed and covered with Brussels carp-t. Numerous costly oil paintings adorn the walls. This hall has a fine library and a billiard parlor and almost everything a man would wish lo while away "the time. In the billiard room we met N E. Harris, the m.m who killed Kush Martin and cut C. C. Hadden. The old man is as bald as a buzzard and i get ting better. We next entered the second department which is in the second story. It is built on the same plan of the first, but is not so finely furnished, as THE PATIENTS ARE MORE VIOLENT than below, and fine ornaments would be broken up. It is, however, well arranged and as neat as a pin. The third, fourth and fifth stories were also visited, all get ting worse as you go up There are per sons there insane on every subject. One man imagines he owns the city of.St. Louis. , Several are crazy ou religion, and quite a ntfmber over disappo'nient in love, and troubles in domestic affairs and other snb pes too numerous to mention. Most of them crazy craz.y on one suoject ate as sensible as anybody oneverv other subject. The fif:h floor story is A DEN OF RAVING MANIiCS. The seane beggars description. Som have to be pinioned to keep them from tearing themselves to pieces. This story is built like a jail ane is filled with desperate casas. But we must hurry and pass to the femnle dtpurtmeut. When we enter ihe first laa.l a scene of splendor presents it self similar to the one in the male department, except that in the place of ihe billiard room a fine parlor is situated. The second and third stories are just about the same as the corresponding halls on the male side. One woman imagines she is THE WIFE OF GEORGE WASH1N6T0N, and is as sensible ae any person until she strikes that subject, when she goes off like electricit-. Another thinks she is the Virgin Mary ; anotker is crazy on dancing and goes around csastautiy singing ball room airs One o!d gray headed woman got "struck" on Al. Conner and it was with difficulty that he kept out of her way. The women are much harde- te manage than the meu We did not have time to visit the fourth and fifth tioorj of this department, but went to the add?.'oi one hundred vads west, bailt origina.iy for the criminal insane, bat 01 account of the crDwdzd condition of the asylum, was converted into a branch of the main building. This building is equally as good as the main building. The kitchen is in the basement and a track is laid from 11 to each tier of halls. A car is LOADED WITH FOOD placed on the different tracks and sent to the different wards in an elevator. The build iog is heated by steam, and to give you an idea of the enormity of this depat ment it might be well to state that durint: the cold snap in January, it took SbO bushels of coal per day to heat the building. The asylum has the Holly system of waterworK and it is supplied from three artesian well- iulO fett deep nd aboil. ten feet apart. There is a 500 acre farm in connection with the asylum. Before Mr. Conner had time to get fur ther iuforma'ion he had to leave in ordr to catch the train, and both he and Al. Conner felt satisfied that under the in.tn acjement of Dr. T. R Smith, president, and his assistants, no improvement can be made in the asylum except to build an ad dition, which it is hopel will be done by the next legislature. At present there are 535 patients confin ed in the asylum, of whom NINETEEN ARE FROM PETTIS COUNTY. These are all supported by the county at an average of S1C0 a year for each patient, making S3040 per annum paid by this coun ty for her insane, and "there's nore lo fol low." The Missouri asylum is run like cluck work, and during his whole travel through it Mr. Conner never saw one speck of dirt nor a single patient who was not clean and neat aud well cared for.
