There is no doubt that a person may apparently see objects and hear words which another person close by cannot see and hear. Such impressions are to be referred not to actually existing objects, but to the action of the sub- ject’s mind. Dr. Abercromby tells us of one patient who could, by directing nis attention to an idca, call up to sight the appropriate image or scene, though the thing called up were an object he had never seen but had mere- ly imagined. When meeting a friend in the street he could not be sure whether the appearance was his friend or a spectral illusion till he had tried to touch it and had heard the voice. Goethe saw an exact counterpart of himself advancing toward him, an ex- perience related by ‘Witkie Collins. Sir Walter Scott relates that soon after the death of Lord Byron he read an account of the deceased poet. On step- ping into the hall immediately after he saw right before him, in a stand- ing posturg, the exact representation of his departed friend, whose recollec- -tion had been so strongly brought to his imagination. After stopping a mo- ment to note the extraordinary resem- blance he advanced toward it and the figure gradually disappeared.@ Some of the cases narrated by Sir David Brew- ster are particularly instructive. ; The subject was a lady (Mrs. A.) and her hallucinations were carefully studied by her husband and Sir David. On one occasion she saw her husband, as she thought, who had gone out half an hour before, standing within two feet of her in the drawing-room. She was astonished to receive no response when she spoke to him. She remem- dered that Sir David had told her tc press one eyeball with the finger when the impression of any real object would be doubled. She tried to apply the test, but the figure walked away and disappeared. The simple scien- tific experiment diverted her attention from the creation of her mind, and this, no longer being in sole possession, could not maintain itself and was dis- solved. Another hallucination took the form of her dead sister-in-law. The figure appeared in a dress which Mrs. A. had never seen, but which had been described to her by a ‘wmmon friend.—Westminster Review eet = Eile THE EAST.

At this writing the majority are so wrought up over the filibustering tactics pursued by a few populists who have been diseredited by their own home states, and by a few renegade republicans, who feel that they must oppose everything that will in any way strengthen the hands of the adminis tration, that there is every indication of some vigorous ta!kng, and, if that don’t work, then some vigorous action, that shail effectually squelch these hypocritical ene mies of American progress. As a matter of fact, when the people, by their votes, in last November, indorsed the administration and reelected President Me Kinley, the people also indorsed the prin- ciples and the polices advocated by the re publican party and by President McKinley. These senators, however, who are now op- posing administration *meacures, like the army bill, for instance, know very well ine deed that they are attempting to thwart the will of the people in taking whatever ac- tion may be necessary to force to the rear where they belong these discredited pops and venegade republicans. The assertion has been repeated!y made that the filibustering against the army bil in the senate is not so much directed against that measure as it is against the shipping bill, the latter being another great measure demanded by republicans in their state and national conventions, year after year, and which has been before two successive con- gressez, and twice favorably reported for passage by both the house and the senate committees having the biil in charge. But it is being seen, now, that the shipping bil does not deserve this aspersion. The army bill, on its own merits, is opposed by the fag ends of repudiated and discredited and | bobtail parties, solely to embarrass the pres- ident, and to give aid and comfort to the nation’s enemies in the Philippnes. The shippng bill, too, ctands upon its own merits, and will, by the time this reaches the reader’s eye have been restored to its po- sition of precedence as unfinished business, if it has not been passed by the senate, After the experience which the members of the senate have undergone in the discussion of the army bill they will be in no kind of a mood to sit tamely and permit the eo- called “kickers” in the senate to occupy time in filibustering. And after the ship- ping bill has been finally passed, it will be discovered that the filibustering tactics of the pops and renegade republicans will be just as much in evidence, no matter what the measure that they may have under dis eussion. In short, the real purpose of the filibus- terers is to delay action on all administra- tion measures, even the appropriation bi!ls, in order to embarrass the president and compel him to call congress in extra ses- sion. If this despicable pian is successful, then these very people who have caused the extra session by preventing action upon im- portant measures during the time available will be the first to excoriate the president and the repub‘ican party, for what they will charge as extravagance, and a desire to put through all sorts of indefensible measures. The worst of it all is that, although the sin- cerity of a number of these objectors has long been questioned, it is only recently that their personal honesty has been impugned, but such pointed suggestions have been car- tied from them to those in control of af+ fairs on the other side that “for a consid- eration” they would cease their “opposi- tion,” that the most unworthy of all mo- tives now seems to be at the bottom of some | of the most active and malignant of the op- | ponents. ©The effect of the passage of the ship- Ping bill will be two-fold: 1. It will add to our quasi-military and nav: ul strength, and give us a power and a prestige upon the sea which we sadly lack at present. 2. It will gradually give to pur own people the carry- ing of our $2,500,000,000 worth of foreign commerce, and hence to our own people tha amp:oyment that goes with the payment of $200,000,000 for carrying our foreign com- merce, 91 per cent. of which now goes into the pockets of foreign ship owners. O7It is to be regretted that three or four influential republican senators shou!d have geen. fit to secretly nurse grievances against the shipping bill so long, without frankly stating the basis of their discontent. But as the matter has been brought to iight and so adjusted as to unite all republicans in favor of the measure, what might have hap- pened a month ago is likely to happen at any moment, now—that is to say, the passage of the bill. © As goon as the shipping bill passes the senate it will be sent to the house, and at that end of the capitol there is every assur- ance that its discussion will not occupy to exceed two days, so that its final passage and approval by President McKinley may he expected to occur about the Ist of Feb- | ruary. ©7The back of the opposition to the shipping bill was rather broken when the re publican leaders in the senate got together and united in favor of a bili which they could all enthusiastically support, and the passage of which at the present session is now assured. 7 After all has been said and done, if congress don’t legis'ate in the interest of the American ship the American people will be compelled—no' one knows how much longer—to pay $200,000,000 each year to for eign ships for carrying American imports and expert NVOR THE SUBSIDY BIL Democrats Who Will Support the Measure to Build Up Amer- ican Shipping. GROWING SENTIMENT IN THE SOUTH Improvement of Rivers and Harbors and the Consiraction of Larger Ships. Viewed with Approval by Prodacers and Business Men. [Special Correspondence.] Washington, Jan 23 When the opponents of the shipping bill came to be finaily counted,during the clos ing days of the debate on the army bill in the semte, the fact was uncovered that a few influential republicans were among them. Tiese men had certain notions that the bill wa. inequitable in its provisions, and they had ben in the habit of meeting and comparing mtes and assuring éach other that their sumicions were well grounded. Finally, howevy, these cbjections were brought to light,and, when that was accom- plished, and the riends of the bill were given a chance to tiscuss these objections, their apparent fore: melted away like snow under a summer sun The result has been that a few amendmens have been agreed to in the bill that coversvery possible point of doubt on the repubican side, and they are now all united in th senate in favor of the bill as it stands. When a vote is reach@ on the shipping bill there will be a disagseable revelation to the democrats of a fe) of their own members who will support =, Not lessthan half a dozen democrats has, one way and another, indicated that theymay be relied upon to support and to vote fr the bill, and they explain, too, that this is Jargely, in obedience to urgent requests frm their con- stituents. Nowhere in this coutry is this more in evidence than in the so¢h, where, hitherto, opposition has been £o-enera! to ali forms of government aid, at lest on the part of the statesmen representing outhern constituencies, as to have caused feeling | of despair at times among their mre pro- gressive and up-to-date colleagues im the north and west. The improvement of rivera and hators jn the south, foilowed by the construcon of much larger ships for the carriage of ,yth- ern export products, and the consequtt re. duction in freight rates and increasey 4}. rect returns to the producers, have bee gb. ject lessons of immense value to the «th. ern business men, and the fact is eyjy dawning upon those whom they senctg congress to represent them. No longerjg there opposition in the south to the 4. provement of rivers and harbors; inde, there is more money likely to go into t improvement of the great seaports of t, south, and especialiy of the gulf, and 3 tributary streams, than into the north. Th direct benefits from this have been felt } evory hamlet, village and city in the sou! whether located upon a navigable so or not. So, too, it is beginning to be felt through- out the south that the construction of the Nicaragua canal will be an undertaking of the most far-reaching benefit to the south, and the peop’e of that section are begn- ning to appreciate the wisdom of Senetor Morgan’s valiant fight for that great water way. The spending of $150,000,000, or even §200,000,000, for the construction of the Ni- caragua canal, it is beginning to be believed throughout the south, will have a benefit each year, upon the increased markets abroad for their surplus products that will repay them, and the pation, too, each year tor the total sum of the expenditure. And, with these thoughts crowding one another upon the southern mind, it is quite easy and logical for southerners to appreci- ate the value of ships of our own, doing our own foreign carrying, and keeping the whoie of the $175,000,000 at home that is now spent -very year for ocean freights that are paid to foreignship owners, and by them taken from the country, to the loss of our national wealth, to the deprivation of our own peo- B: e of employment, and to the strengthen- ing of the auxiliary naval resources of our rates rivals. In these cireumstances the expenditure of 89,000,0000 a year to save from $175,000,000 to $250,000,000 a year is not’ a proposition ether to frighten the average American citizen or call forth his protest. In fact, the demand for just this kind of a thing is becoming quite unanimous among the business men of the country, south, west, north and east. €7Senator Hanna is quoted as saying that ; his mail contains each day a number of re- quests, ranging between ha’f a dozen and ; & dozen, from students in the high schools and coileges and universities, for copies of his and other speeches on both sides of the shipping question, in order that membere of debating teams may familiarize them- selves with the arguments proandcon. The subject is one of the most popular debates now throughout the country, and the results of these debates, almost invariably favoring subsidies, are extremely gratifyng to Sena- tor Hanna. Few people are aware that at a very recent débate between two strong teams, one representing Columbia unversity, of New York, and the other representing the Universty of Pennsyvania, on the question of paying subsidies to American ships, the former taking the negative and the latter the affirmative of the proposition, the Penn- sylvanians won, and this notwithstanding the fact that the three judges were free traders and democrats, one being a very dis tinguished ex-United States senator i Delaware. C7 However uninformed on the subject of American shipping the present generation) of Americans may be, the popularity of the’ question in our high schools, colleges and} sniversitics insures a grasp upon the sub- ject on the part of the young men just enter-’ ing active business life that is quite reassure ing as to the future of our mercantile ma-, rine.
