Last Friday morning five candidates for the United States Senatorship breakfasted at the same table in the Leland hotel at Springfleld. To the casual observer they presented a beauti- ful picture. Such quiet, such harmony, such peacefal dignity never before had been wit- nessed. Could it be possible that these five gentlemen were sworn and deadly enemies ti from this friendly matff meal they were to go to their respective lairs to abuse and vilify each other to their constituents? All was serenity till the waiter asked William R. Morri- son if he would have some ot the stewed pranes. At this Col. Morrison flushed and replied that he would not. far be it trom me,” said Col. Morrison an- ily. “toencouraze a foreisn fruit upon which ) protective tariY of 2}7 cents per pound essed!” “Can it be possible, my dear sir,” inquired Carter Harrison, “that you favor an abolition of the tariff on prunes? Do you desire to see our fair state flooded with this product of the in- solent and effete monarchies of foreign climes? t, sir —what, I inquire, would your constitu- ents of southern IHinois say if they Knew you zit to bring this insidious and eneryating able into competition with the pawpaw, voseberry, the turnip, the cabbage, the ek haw, the persimm id other succulent fruits of native preductio: Then Judge Josh Allen, Gen.

So froma small be- ginning came a great storm, On affrighted wings sweet peace hastened away and discord asserted its fell sway where harmony had abided. For envious, bitter rancor croons Where huinan politics Is rife, And froin an humble mess of prunes May rise a hurricane of strhie. 56) How Fashions Change. From Harper's Week’y. The greatest sport amid the merry Christmas frolic in a certain house was the appearance of grandpa in his wedding suit. Through ever so many years it had been carefully preserved, and it was agreed with hilarious unanimity that if the suit which fifty years ago was the most fashionable and distinguished in Broadway should now appear in that street it would raise an uproar of amazement and delight from Central Park to the Battery, Fifty years ago some of the same eyes that would look upon it to-day would ve remarked it with admira- tion and eavy. But now it would appear to them the most grotesque and outlandish of gar- ments, Who has made the change? Fitty years ago he bueks, asthe golden youti ot the time were called, wore the high-collared surtout or the broad-caped top-coat. Their necks were swathes in ample white and their manly breast. Were covered with the ample raffie of the shirt. You can see those swells in the illustrations of Tom and Jerry in Londen, trom which work one ot the famous coats of the time was named. If a Senator should rise to address the eina great debate in such a suit as Mr. Webster wore when he replied to ne. and earned his title of Defender of the Constitution, or on any other of his great days, the press from one end of the country to the other would ring with chaffing laughter at the Honorable Bog Logic or Colonel Selle Yet Mr. Webster wore only the tradi- tional w! colors, buff and blue, and he was clad only s James Fox would have ap- peared had he been an American Senator. Who has lowered that mighty coat collar and abolished the ample cravat, and dismissed the bine dress coat with brass buttons? Who, a little earlier, banished breeches, and drew the long trouser over the lower lez, and abjured Ttop-beots? Who is it that makes coat-sleeves tight this year and loose next year, and ordains that to-day the refinement of elegance shall be a white waistcoat at din ier, and that to-morrow @ white waistcoat at dinner shall be Mdicrously old fashioned? What despot of abselute and unquestioned sway now expands the skirts ot woinan to the form and amplitude of a diving bell, and anon draws them in so closely that my lady could only limp, not dance over London bridge? Was it last week that the young men w 11 in boots with toes as square as honesty, while this week they skim and saunter in shoes Whe does ian? Who ever sees the or me wand? How is the transformation ed The American fashions, we used to be told, come from Europe. But who makes the fashion When all English and Freneh dandies ¢ wearing hizh collars, who is it that turns down his collar with sueh authority that two instantly turn down their collars ? answered that the tailors made the The tailors make the clothes, but a | chane in form or style by the tailor would not chanse the fashion. If he should change the ent ola coat for a lawyer's clerk, the fashion would not change, but the lawyer's elerk would be out of fashion." The tailor as an artist’ may havethe highest taste and the utmost skill,and as atailor he may wish that a new fashion would produce a demand for new clothes. But he has ho social authority. He can only serve hiin who has. It was Prince Hamiet who was the glass oftashion and the mold of form. If D’Orsay, amid universal white cravats, should appear in a black satin scarf, all the dandies would hurry to wear black satin. Tens of thousands al Britons may leave off gloves; but they are merely que and cloves are still essential. The Prince of Wales may saunter along the pt without gloves, and immediately glove- sness is the only good “form.” ‘This Is the secret of fashion. It is the prac of # recognized social leader. The London iid says that no instance ean be mentioned of a social change or fashion introduced by the ~ Prince of Wales which has not been instantly | adopted by those around him, and gradually by the general mass of his future subjects.

From The Cornhill. ‘There is a prevalent impression in this coun- try that the quarrel was one-sided; that the Americans were irritated (excusably perhaps) by our recognition of the confederate states as belligerents, as well as by the general sympathy ; that was felt in Enciand for the southern cause, and that we really never said half such unpleas- ant things about them as they did about us. But if they expressed their aversion more loudly than we did, it is not so certain that ours was any less deep, and in our present liberal and en- lightened mood we can afford to admit that most of us had but a poor opinion of our cous- ins. from @ Social point of view, twenty years back, i happened, toward the close of the civil war, | te be ina German eity much frequented both by | Fuzlish and Americaus, whe could be in- | duced to speak te oneanother. The British chap- lain of the place—remembering, I suppose, that the Americans who atteaded his services contrib- uted something toward the defrayal of the ex- penses connected therewith—took it into his head one Sunday to pray for the President of the United States, a custom which has since be- come universal among mixed ions on | the continent. In those days it was an innova- tion, and an English gentleman who was present marked his disapproval of it by thu:nping his stick on the floor and Sung poet, “E thought this was an English oh :” alter which he icked up his- hat and walked out. it is only ir to his compatriots to add that in the very pretty quarrel which ensued they declined to su him; but I doubt whether it was so much with his sentiments that were dis- pleased as with big disregard for lous pre HOW TO GET ASLEEP. Mair Pillows to be Preferred— Methods of Cooling the Brat From the N. ¥, Sun. When I was a student I suffered much from sleeplessness, and, after trying many remedies, Thit upon thisone: I discarded my feather pillow for one of hair. The effect was wonder- ful. I siept soundly the whole of the first night, and have neyer since, except when feverish, been so wakeful as I usually was betore. Al- though feathers are excellent for preventing the dispersion of the heat of the body, so much fault bas been found with feather beds that they have quite generally gone out of use, and it is strange that feather pillows have not been sent after them. Feathers in pillows are open to the same objections as feathers in beds, and even their cbief virtue, that of keeping up a high temperature, is a defect in a pillow; certainly when one-half of the head is kept at blood beat by being buried in feathers, and the other half fs exposed to the air, both halves cannot be at the most favorable temperature. A hair pillow does not get warined up to an uncomfortable degree, cause it rapidly conducts away the heat im- parted to it by the head. Since hair pillows are not yet in common use, it might be supposed that ‘a person accustomed to the use of one would either haye to take it with him every time he was to be away from home for a tew nights, or suffer considerable inconvenience, But fortunately hair bolsters are more common, and if the pillow is thrown aside the bolster will raise the head probably as high as is good for the sleeper. Ifa hair bolster is lacking, the end of the mattress may be raised bigh enough to make a comfortable head rest by putting the pillow under it. According to most, but not all, medical writers, wakefulness and mental activity de- pend on the circulation of a large quantity of blood through the brain, and the flow of blood must be lessened before sleep can come on. [ have obtained especial benetlt from drawing the blood to the muscles by means of a brisk walk or a quarter to naif an hours’ vigorous performance of light gymnastics just betore going to bed. The“ majority of cases of sleep- lessness occur among persons who use their muscles bat little, and for very many taking more exercise is the best remedy. Sleep cun sometimes be brought on by simply warming the body, especially the feet; the drowsiness caused by sitting in a warm room 1s a familiar instance. The blood may be drawn to the skin by a cold shower or sponge bath, followed by rubbing with a coarse towel. Getting out of bed for a few minutes when the air is cool. will often bring relief. I have lain awake half the night, and then, after being up long enough to mix and drink a lemonade, have fallen asleep at once on going back to bed. Perhaps the lemon- ade should have part of the credit. On hot summer nights a cold bath will reduce the bod- ily temperature so as to admit of sleep. If the skin is not wiped quite dry, the evaporating moisture will inerease the cooling effect. A light lunch just before going to bed relieves the brain by drawing the blood tothe stomach, and the inclination to doze after a meal is explain- able in this way. inishing the cerebral cir- culation by compression of the carotid arteries ivised by some physicians. Lying on the ‘arious will effect this, and Dr. J. L. Corning has in- vented an instrument in the form of a collar for the same purpose. Tn view of what has been said about the cir- culation of the blood, culduess of the teet is a natural accompaniment of sleeplessness, and one means of cure may be made to serve both ends. Bathing the feet in hot water uch a ns. but after a few hours a reaction to set in, which willsend the blood from the feet to the head,and cause the sleeper to awake. It is better to take advantage of the reaction which follows a eold toot-bath with vigorous rubbing of the feet, both in the water and with the towel. The stimulus thus given to the cir- culation in the feet will be more permanent. 1 have found walking just before bedtime bene- jal, and when Ido not wish to go outdoors I raise myself sharply on my. toes to the full stretch fifty or more tunes. A paragraph has recently been in circulation to the effect that a! continuous low noise favors sleep; the sound ot water dropping on a brass pan has been pre- scribed by a physicion with good effect. ‘ihe explanation seems to be that a simple mo- notonous impression quicts the brain by occupying it to the exclusion of more varied and Interesting, and theretore stimu- lating, Impressions. On the same principle are the devices of counting forward or ba>kward, imagining sheep jumpiug one by one tirough a gap. &c.; but they are open to the objection of causing one portion of the brain to be exerted in order to control the rest of it. If the hygienic measures which have been de- scribed fail to Induce sleep, probably some form. of disease stands in the way, and ‘a physician should be employed to discover and remove it. Soporitic drugs should be regarded as a last resort, for, unless skilifully used, they produce astuporrather than a refreshing sleep. Do not take a narcotic or nost um at random be- cause somebody says it 18 good to make you sleep; one narcotic is injurious where another is beneficial, and the chanees are that you will choose one which will do you more harm than | govd.

The Case of John W. Drew Given to the Jury thiy Afternoon—Instructio! f the Court. Mr. Coyle, in his opening for the government yes_ terday afternoon in the case of John W. Drew, charged with presenting false and fraudulent claims upon the bureau of medicine and sungerys said that if the defendant had summoned him to testify as to his high standing in the community his testimony would have Deeh aS strong as that of any of the estimable gentlemen who had been on the stand. He had no doubt that some of the jury- men stood in the same position. ‘They could there- (oR abpreckate the embarrassment under whieh he labored; and he could see the embarrassment that Met them upon the threshold of the case. He re minded them, however, of their ditty, which should exclude such consideraitons. He then reviewed the charges, which were that the defendant had pre- sented and collected three different. fraudulent claims respectively for the sums of $1,978.28, $1,8H4.- O4 and $1,009.84. He reviewed the testimony as to the delivery of goods {rom Drew's store to the Durean of inedicine and surgery. He devoted most of his address, which occupied about two hours, to an explanation of what the governinent clamed Were fabrications in Mr. Drew's books. He claimed that in one instance the true account with the bu- Teau of medicine and surgery had been torn out of the book, and a fletitious account written in upon another page, tht neeessary erasures and altera- tons being made in the index. He polnted to the fact that while all other accounts In the ledger tn question were closed in January, 1882, the supposed fabricated account was carried én for 10 months longer. | ‘These Netiticus accounts, be claimed, had been inserted in the book since the trial begam,and made up Lo meet papers put in evidence by ’ tue government. TO-DAY'S PROCEEDINGS, When the court met tuls morning Mr. Moore, Tising, referred to the length of the case, which had occupied a week. Ali the evidence the case had been suscepuble of, he said, had been pre~ Sented to the jury. After consultation he sald the counsel tor défense had concluded not to address the jury, having confidence in tue Intelligence a futeyrity of the jury, and of the instructions whic! Would be given by the court. That will cut you off,” said the court, turning to District Attorney Wortilington. “Tam entirely content to be cut off on those terms,” said Mr. Worthington, Mr. Moore then presented a number of prayers, These prayers were to ihe effect that if the jury believed that the defendant furnished to the bu- Teau Of medicine and surgery goods to the value of the articles charged, and did not present the bills for the purpose and With the intention of detraud- ing the governtent, they should acquit, ‘There were Several prayers, putting in different form the Rroposition Uhat the tntention of the defendant to | lefraud was esseatial to guilt, Another prayer asserted the principle that the Durden or proot was on the government; another that the Jury must, tn order to convict, belleve the guilt of the defendant is established beyond all Teasonable doubt. ‘The last prayer sets forth that though the Jury might believe that a prima facia case was made out by the government, yet one not entirely free of doubt, and that doubt one which might be ex- plained in favor of the defendant, the jury should ‘not convict. Mr. Moore asked the court aiso to instruct the Jury as to the weight of evidence and the ot the jury tn gi stin read also a secuon from Wharton's “ dence,” commenting upon the Dias of expert wit- nesse3 employed upon either side and the little Weight that should be given to thelr conclusions. Mr. Worthington said that he destred to speak as irtually declared that when resented to a pay ot cools which he knew he had ould not be convicted.

Mr. Willams sald there was no statute moking {ta penal offense to pay for goods out of one appro- priation when they Uelonged to another; and, tar- thermore, If there were such a statute this indict- ment made no such change. In this case the de- ant ted that he had furnished an equiva- lent tor every dollar be bad received, and had made OUL Lis bill decording to the instructions given him by T of the department to which the goods tied. In these respects the case was en- ent from the others which bad been court. JUDGE WYLIE'S CHARGE TO THE JURY. Judge Wylie then began his charge to the jury. ‘The defendant, he sala, was charged with violating certain statntes of the United States. When they entered upon the trial there were 7 indictments pending, 4 of the old and 3 of the new series. nolle pros. had been entered as to one of the old indictments. So they had 6 Indictments betore them. As to the 3 old ones,each contained 2 gounts. Bach of the 3 new ones contained 3 counts. ‘They had then in all 15 pending counts. But in fact there were but three counts as to Which they had had any evide: The defendant wight be found guilty under 3 counts, in which cas® the jury would have to specify which three counts. ‘The first count of the old Indictinents charged forgery, the 2d count was not relied upon by the prosecution | If they found him guilty of perjur hot sez how they could i crimes: ed. This charge of forgery as Known to the common b ory forged ciaiin agalust the government must be a false, Irandulent and fictitions claim. If they belteved he manufactured these claims, he might be found guilty under the Grst count ot the old series. But it they did this they could not tind him guilty under any other count. They might find him gen- erally guilty under either of the series of indi ments The theory upon whitch these counts we construc‘ed were that Uiey were only varying atements of the same offense. They could not conviet him of the charges made In these indic ments, unless They believed the speciilc charges had been madeout, Evidence had been admitted as Lo other transactions lor tie purpose or showing how the business was conducted, and the rela. tions of the endant with the de AS to the charge ot forgery the law requires the charge should be made ont exactly in the indictment. For anything that red in the indiciment, wixtlejthese claims night be fraudu- lent, there was nothing to show that Laey were not signed Dy Surgeon General Wales. If the elatins, however, wer up after eral Wales Had signed the mstrument, then that would be a forgery, as forgery does not coustst only in counterfeiting a signature. It they had a rea- sonable doubt as to the claims being manufactured after Surgeon Geueral Wales signed the paper; if they beileved the there Was no change after the surgeon general signed the papers, there would be no forgery. ilmight be @ trick and a fraud, but It was hota forgery. He thouzht the evidence was of so doubt- the court did of the other fala Character as to this subject that the jury | } oNZht not to fad the defendant guilty of forging the claims. Surgeon Genera! Wales himself could not say Whether the papers were to-day tu the con- dition tn which they were wien he signed them or not. Ifthe jury came tothe conclusion that ft was. not clear that the papers were altered after the signature of Dr. Wales was appended, they should acquit as (0 all three of the Indictments of the first ries. ‘Thesecoad count, it was admitted, should not be considered, us Ube tvidence was not applica- ble to it. The district attorney reminded the court that nolle proses. had been entered as to the first and second connts of the new series, leaving only the seeond count in each of the new indictments. To prevent confusion he would now enter nolle proses, as tu each of the old Indictinents. The court proceeding, said the substance of the econd count in the new indictments was that the defendant in each of the three ‘S had a false and fraudulent claim, and that tn order to procure tte allowance of the false claim he! procured a fraudulent certificate, signed by surgeua General Wales knowing that the certificate had been obtained by fraud. If the certificate of Surgeon Wales had been obtained Tranauiently, and the defendant knew that fact, and the certificate Was ue In support of a fraud- went claim, that would st this count. There Were three things necessary—first, that the claim was fulse and frauduicnt; seeond, that thejcertifi cate was obtained by Irdud, and’ third, that the defendant knew that fact. ster a | ‘Therefore, at | itiegal, | A/D weight of Evuience Showed that | not offset the of the defendant's guitt. The court ‘that that would show only that Dr. Wales was as bad as the rest, but that fact would not excuse the defendant. aq Bhe case Was then, at 12:30 p. m., given to the jury. WAITING FOR THE VERDICT. No word had been received from the jury room AL o'clock. THR DEMPSRY CASES MONDAY. ‘The district attorney sald to-day that he would call up the cases in which Wm. H.
