There is no dcubt 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 ua 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 Wilkie 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 posture, 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 stydied | by her husband and Sir David’ On one oceasion 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 responsa when she spoke to him. She remem- bered that Sir David had told her to 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 whSch had been described to her by a ‘sommon friend.—Westminster Review. Ne:ro Colony to Ee Established.

Among other places along the Span- ish coast the queen regent of Spain visited recently on board the royai yacht was Bilbao. ‘Lnis very impert- ant town is the capital of Biscay, one of the four sister provinces, It is beautifully situated along the banks of the river Nervion and surrounded by high and partly wocded hil’s. The old | town is very uninteresting, with its ugly houses, many stories high, and badly paved streets. There are one or two fine churches, and the quaint, much-venerated shrine of Begonya, perched high up on one of the hills, The Bilbamous would never forgive Maria Christina if she did not take her youthful son to hear mass in that of Bilbao—Ensanche—is very modera and can vie with any other European capital, with its fine buildings and well laid out parks. The principal drive is by the water- side, along which coquettish villas ex- tend. Where the river fiows into the sea are two small suburbs called Por- tugalete and Les Arenas—seaside re- sorts,with a fine hotels and bathhouses. A splendid iron bridge, invented by a Spanish engincer, connects the two banks; so high is it that vessels pass underneath. Vescels of 3,000 tons can go faz up the river to the wharves where they take in thcir loads of the} rich iron ore from the mines of Prea- nera, Goldames, Friana and Castro, Last year alone 5,009 vessels, mostly English, entered the port, carrying away 6,000,009 tons of iron ore. Many of the mines are worked by Englisl companies, and in sc aspects Bil- bao reminds one of an English sea-} port.

Tae People of Washington Seem to Be Easy-Going. “The thing that first impresse: visitor to Washington,” szid Fred Green, a young St. Louis business man, who is at the Shoreham, “‘is that nobody seems in a hurry. People walk leisurely about as if they had all day to reach their desiiaation, sr. rather, as if they had no destinat in view. The contrast between the deliberation of Washington and tie ‘clear the way there’ rush of New York, Chicago, St. Louis, and the other great business centers is most startling.

Then again tho greater number of office holders have no need to be in a hurry, and the two ciasses between them infinence society and govern its customs. If I had never visited Washington in the winter and geen that the same conditions thea exist, I might be led to suppose it was the exircme heat that made your citizens so locth to moving with haste, but my observation is that the habits of the people are about the same the year round, and that deliberateness is one of the di:tinctive features of the capital.
