A GOOD SHOWING. r Bros.’ stable of runners, which con- ret of Luke‘Blackburn, Quito, Warfield, igs Lawrence, Charley Gorham, Ripple, Jericho, Bramble, Bliss, and Dodette, took part in 149 races last season, of which they won seventy, were second thirty times, and third sixteen times. The gross winnings of the stable jn stakes, purses, and matches was $7,991.00; of which amount Luke Black- He js credited with $46,975, having won twenty-two out of his twenty-four starts. Quito won $7,675; Warfield, $6,560; Elias Jawrence, $6,252.50; Charley Gorham, $5,- 48; Ripple, $1,510; Jericho, $1,815; Bramble, $53; and Bliss, $500, Jowork up as the Dwyers have done to second on the list of winners is certainly ch to their credit, as also it is for them to be able to say that their stable has been jally exempt from even the unpleasant rumors current during extended race meet- state of af@sirs due, no doubt, to their “yale of not allowing “touts” and other mis- qrearts of the turf to hang around their stables. That they are liked by their em- ployés is alsoshown by the hearty codperation they receive fromunem. ‘Their horses always come on the track in excellent condition, and atthe end ofa race their boys with blankets and other paraphernalia are among the first fo show at the judges’ stand.

PHILOSOPHICAL SOCIETY. Lecture by Dr. J. S. Jewell. At the meeting of the Pnilosophical Sotviety Inst evening Dr. J. S. Jewell read a paper on “The Influence of Our Present Civilizauon on the Production of Nervous and Mental Dis- eases.” The lecturer first of all defined the pe of his subject, showing that tho phrase "nervous and mental! discase™ must be taken in a wider sense than is customarily given to it. He then expressed a decided belief that nervous und imental diseases are relatively, a3 well a3 actually, inereused as one of the necessary con- sequences of an advanced civilization. As proofs f his position he directed the attention of tho “audience, first of all, to the fact that an advance in civilization implied, as regards the individual, a more elaborate or compiex brain, at least, than belongs to the half-civilized or savage. He said that one of the chief results of tho cultivation of the individual, under a high state of clvili: tion, isto widen and refine nerve’ sensibility ‘This implies the capacity for arreater rango and acuteness of pleasure, and side by side with thisa greater range and varicty of suffering, and, hence, greater susceptibility in various ways to disease. Passing from this phase of his subject, the lecturer next pointed out the bad effects On the nervous system of various intel- lectual and physica! occupations, especially characteristic of a high as compared with a low state of civilization. He selected, as the first food in a sit posture, and is retained by hisowner, Mr. J. W, McDonald, of Marys- ‘ville, Cal, simply out of charity. Ata meeting of the Chicago Driving Park mn held yesterday afternoon, the of Directors elected the following of- cers for the ensuing year: President, S. K. W; Vice-Presidents, R.J. Smith and J. ers: Secretary, D. L. Hall; Treas- HL V. Bemis; Executive Committee, S. w, J. H. Sanders, D. L. Hall, A. S. B. H. Campbell, Wash Hesing, J. E.

There are three stakes for Yearolds, First the Alexander Stakes for So” © entrance, half forfeit, $500 added; ia to second; half a mile.’ Second, the Louisville Ladies’ Stakes, for fillies, same ianee, forfeit, and added money as the 3 exander Stakes.

He alleged that, us they are conducted at present,a large number of those in attondanceare systematically exhausted or in various ways become the subjects of nerv- yous and mental disorders, a8 the result of over- taxing during student life. While he admitted that the majority pass apparently unharmed through their educationul course, he yet contended, as a mutter of fact, that, on account of too prolonged courses of study, confinement for too many hours a day, in ill-ventilated and imperfectly-heated school-rooms, and the practice of studying late at nigbt,—in these and other ways, avast num- ber of young persons annually become alfected with nervous and mental disorders as the plain outcome of ill-regulated study. The lecturer next directed attention to the ill- effects resulting from overwork by professional men, which, he affirmed, was relatively more common in the present savanced 3 compared with a more primitive form of civilization. The standards of attainments were said tobe highe! and difiicultics in the way of professional su cess, and the rewards of professional tabor so much greater, in the present as compared with earli@r times, a3 to lead vast numbers to over- wort, and thus experience its many fold ill-re- sults. What is true for the professions is de- clared to be true also for those who have the control and bear the responsibilities of largo commercia) aud financial concerns. The lect- urer said it was no wonder that with the in- ecentivesto and effect of overwork among our business men there is so much to be seen in the way of exhuusted and shattered nervous ystems. He said it is not so much work, per- haps, as worry that tells upon the henith of tho nervous system. He cited the enormous in- crease in speculation, which, he said, had ex- tended to every form of business, and that even the churches had notescaped its intluence, It included all ranks and conditions in suciety. The anxicties depending upon the uncertainties and hazards of speculation ne declared were prolitic eources of nerve and mental disease. Attention was next directed to the ill effects of bs Stakes for 3-year-olds that have not bat Face prior to Jan. 1, 1880; S50entrance, pult forfeit, $500 added, $100 to second, mile ea ¢ Louisville Cup, for all azes, $100 pauunee, $40 forfeit, $1,000 added, $300 to x nd, two and one-fourth miles; and the ante’ Stakes, for all ages, $50 entrance, Htorteit, $1,000 added, $750 to first, $150 to = nd, $100 to third, $50 to fourth, mile and omeeehth.

This source of nervous and mental disease was snid to be greatly on the increase. As special examples under this point of view, the lecturer pointed out coffee and tea. Both were said to be pure nerve stimulants, Their action is to excite and finally to weaken, not to calm or strengthon, the nervous system. Hundreds of thousands of persons in this coun- try were declared to bo kept. in a moderate way, with impaired health, as the result of the use of these agents. Other stimulants and scdatives, like tobucco, were briefly discussed in their rela- tions to the question at issue. Next in order the lecturer discussed tho effect on nerve and mental health of the rapid spe- cialization of Iabor, both physical and mental, in unduly cultivating certain limited parts of the nervous system, thus destroying the sym: metry of nerve development, and in this way aswell as by ovefworking certain parts of the nervous system, it was declared, many nervous and mental diseases were produced. As in- stances, the lecturer cited telegraphing, piano- playing, type-sctting, and writing. These were all suid to give rise to certain forms of discase, ‘The iecturer then referred brietly to the effect of various artiticial customs of modern society upon nerve and mentul health, reaching tho conclusion that they were all more or less dele- terious. Finally a comparison was drawn between man and the tower animals. It was asserted that the loweranimuls were suidom affected with nervous, ulmost. never with mental, disease. This fact depended on a wide difference in the complexity and censibility of the hizher parts of the nerv~ ous system of man, as compared with the lower al eye rison was thon made between adults and children, in which it was said that chijdren rarely become insane. ‘This arises largely from the fact that the structure and modes of action in the brain in children are less specialized and ndvanced, and less likely to be overworked than is true for adults. Sthe ‘discussion by the lecturer was then closed by a reference to heredity as one of tho causes operating to increase nervous and mental dis- ease. If other causes increase or multiply such disorders, to heredity was deleguted the task of perpetuating it from one generation to those which succeed ity, Paroclls fiome-Life. eee A writer In the London World bas been visit- ing Mr. Parnell at Avondale House. 1t seems that the {rish leader is very abstemious, drink- iug very little but water and tea. He smokes a xrgut deal, and is never in want of uguod “weed,” which he protfers very liberally to. bis fricnds. At the saine time he keeps a neat little wine cellar, and can, when the occasion arises, regale bis guests with a choice vintage. In other respects his style of living is very homely. , His only retainers are a venerable matron and ainan who looks after his horse, the garden, and the general affairs of the house. In the intervals of ugitation he isa great rider,a moderately keen Sportsman, something of a farmer, and ofton speuks of himself as 2 Cincinnatus who hus been regretfully compelled to relinquish his cubbages. Mr. Parnell bas alvaye boen a more or less sol- itary man, seeing little company and leading rather an {ntrospective life. Ho has plans and objects beyond those which he has yet unfolded; but he has no objection to enter fully into a discussion of the merits of his case, It is noticeable that ho’ is ready to catch up quickly and assimilate to his purposes any fact, idea, or phrase that may be Sasunily dropped in conversation or mentioned in pernpaners: ur. Parnell is no great reader. The only books of recent date or of apparent recent use to be seen were a few nuvels and about a dozen volumes relating to Ireland, such as tho “ Irish in America" and some nistories of tho country. ‘ When Ihavo any leisure I employ my time in working out new mechanical con- trivances,” said Br. Parnell; “and in helping to tit in its place the water-wheel of my sawmill [ nearly had this finger cut off,” lfting up a much scaritied tingor. In the corner of the library is a collection of old volunteer banners, belonging to the Wicklow Volunteers before tho '98 Rebell- jon. These are somewhat torn and, disfigured, but the first Land-Leaguer takes much pride in them, since they belon; to his great-grand- father, who was Colonel of the regiment. Abovo Avondale House, and beyond an amphitheatre of trees, is a clear level space which had been used by- Mr. Parnell’s father as acricket ground. “My father was once Cap- tain of the Eton Eleven,” observed Mr. Parnell, “and I was always very fond of cricket :mysclf before I took to politics.” With the comments of journahsts Mr. Parnell professes to be but little acquainted, though he confesses to being a tolerably close student of the national press. His timo is much ovcupied, cither in open wai fare or in friendly secret conclaves. Those ac- quainted with the body of men whom the agi- tator leads know that they form;the nucleus of a new national party in Ireland, one of whose chief aims is to climinate the clerical clement from politics. “The North fear the priests; without the North nny nationalist movement roust fail; if the ecclesiastical element cau be induced to contine its energy to its own proper sphere we shull gain the North; and nothing can then prevent tho restoration, of national inde- pendence,” argue Mr. Parnefl and all is follow- ors. Mr. Parnell says ho is prepared to wait,and he will not be satisfied with any attempts at remedial legislation which have not at tirst re- ceived his sanction and approval. , THE LAKE-FRONT. Bill Prepared by the Judiciary Com-~- mittee of the Council. TheJudiciary Committee of the City Council met yesterday afternoon and disposed of the proposition to sell the Lake-Frout property to the Iilinois Central Railroad Company by adopt- ing the following resolution: Ttexylved, That the Mayor be authorized and requested to take such steps ashe shall deem proper und expedient to procure the pussuge of an act of Congress at the. prescot sesgjon relin- quishing to the City of Chicago ull the right, title, and interest of the United States in and to tho streets and public grounds in Fort Dearborn addition to Chicago, with authority in said City of Chicago to sell and convey so much of the jatter as lies east of Michigan avenue and south of tho’ south line of Randolph street for the erection thereon of # railroad passenger depot. They agreed to report this resolution to tho Council to-morrow evening, supplemouted by a concise history of the property in question, which Ald. Shorey had prepared, and alsq upon what they regarded as tho necessary legialation by Congress to perfect the proposed sale, as follows: A bill to confirm to the City of Chicago the title to certain public grounds: Thatall the right and title of the United States to the streets and grounds dedicated to public use in that part of the City of Cnicayo in, the State of Illinois, known as “Fort Dearborn Ad- dition to Chicago," subdivided and platted under the authority of the Secretury of War ta the yerr 183%, be and the same hereby is re- linquished and granted to the said city and its successors, with authority to sell und con- vey 60 much _thereu! as lies south of the south fine of Randolph street and between the east line of Michigan avenue as now laid out and improved and the rondway ot the Illinois Central Railroad Company for the erection thercon of a railway passenger stadion- house and other purpuses incident therein: provided, that nothing herein contained shall Seprive the owners of contiguous lots of any vulid right or claim, if such exists, to compen- sation on xecount of the change of uso to which the public ground herein autnorized to be sold and conveyed was originally dedicated by tho United States 1f the Council adopts the resolution the Mayor will sturt for Washington immediately to secure the passage of the above bill, which. it is under- Stood, is entirely satisfactory to the railroad au- thorities, a3 is also the resolution. President Ackerman will accompany him, und so will some of the interested property-bolders in the vicinity, and if there are no unnecessary delays it is hoped to have everything in readiness for the consummation of the sule in a few weeks, and to commence tho building of the new depot early in tho spring. In its report to the Council the Committee will mako no recommendations as to the pending or- dinances in reference to the proposed sale. In fact, the disposition seems to be to let all of the details alone until the city has acquired the right to sell the property,—or such is the feeling of the Committee —to which the railroad people do uot object, believing as thoy do that the city is not inclined to take any undue advantages of them. Tho details of the sale, however, when reached, even if the rest of the program is carried through, will consuine muchtime. They involve the fixing of the pur- chase price, the adjusting of the question of riparian rights,—about which there hus ulready been a great difference of opinion,—and various minor matters. The Railroad Company, how- ever, is understood to be willing to make its proportion of the concessions in the deal, and to bave already tacitly consented to surrender any rights it may have gr acquire to the submerged Jands between Monroe street and Park row, pro- vided the city doos the same thing with the three blocks north of Monroe street. BAD COUNTING. The Count and Recount in the Schar- lau-Meeroslawski Contest. . The recount of the votcs in the Fifth Legisla- tive District was resumed yesterday morning in the jury-room of the County Court. Thore were just as many disputes as to ballots as on the previous day, but Justice Robinson, who is um- pire between the contestants, acted with great fuiroess. The recount of the Thirteenth Ward was concluded, with the following result, the original count being also given for comparison: _ | ¥IRST COUNT. ‘RECOUNT.

These miscounts are extraordinary, and such revolations of judicial incompetence are apt to be followed by unpleasant results. Hereafter whenever there is a majority of Jess than 1.00), every defeated candidate will demanda recount, and it will be weeks after an election before it is known who the Representatives-elect actually are. One cause of the trouble is undoubtedly the large districts, for the creater the vote the greater the Hability to error. ——<$—<——___. THE IRON-TRADE. Spectat Dispatch to The Chicago Tribune, Pirrsuna, Pa., Dec. 11.—lron manufact- urers here take exceptions to the statement of your correspondent that orders are falling off, and several mills are on the eve of shut- ting down. Their side of the story is that, while prices are very low, orders are abun- dant, many of the mills having enough on nand to keep them busy throughout the sea- son. This may be correct, but the opposit view prevails to some extent, those who ad- vance it saying that the boom which com- menced shortly betore the election was more fictitious than real, the objectxof the manu- facturers being to concillate tho workingmen, and induce them to stand by the protective tariff. A few months will tell which of these positions is the correct one. Meanwhile all the mills here continue in operation, with nothing to indicate to an outsider that trouble of any kind is impending. a INDIANA STATE FINANCES, Special Dispatch to The Chicago Tribune, InpiANaPous, Ind., Dee. 11,—State Treas- urer Fleming submitted his report to-day, showing that the total net receipts from all sources, including $583,751.92 balance on hand Nov. 1, 1879, were $4,035,900.94, while the net disbursements for the year forall purposes were $3,387,057.11,—leavjng a bal- ance on hand Oct. 31, 1880, of $885,865.37.
