GEN. Thirty years ago this month, General Robert Edward Lee, the great soldier of the Confederacy, never greater than in the hour of the failurbe of his cause, wrote to President Johnson a letter ap- plying for the benefits of amnesty and restoration to his civil rights as a citizen of the United States. Johnson s proclamation of general am- nesty had been issued on May 29. Six- teen classes of persons Were specifically excluded. Lee was excluded not only because he was a West Pointer and had been a military officer of the Confederate Gov- ernment ranking higher than'Colonel, but also because he belonged to the thirteenth class excepted, namely, those persons who had voluntarily participated in the rebellion, and the value of whose taxable property was over $20,000. The amnesty proclamation of May 29, 1865, provided, however, that special applica- tion for pardon might be made by any person belonging to the classes excepted; and Gen. Lee therefore wrote the sub- joined letter: “Richmond, Va., June 13, 1865. “His Exc’y, Andrew Johnson. “President of the United States. “Sir: Being excluded f1'1.o 1 the pro- visions of amnesty contained in the p10- clamation of the ‘39 ult., I hereby apply for the benefits and full restoration of all rights and privileges extended to those included in it s ter.ms “I g 1aduated from the Military Acad- emy at W'est Point in June, 1829; re- signedf 1rom the United States Army, April, 1861: and was a General in the Confederate Army. and included in the surrender of the Army of N. Va., April 9, 1865. “I have the honor to be, Very respect- fully, Your obedient servant. (Signed) “R. E. LEE.” The copy we have of this document is attested by Gen. George W'ashington Custis Lee, the eldest son of the great Confederate Commander; and Gen. G. W. C. Lee adds this highly interesting historical note concerning his father’s motives in making so promptly an ap- plication to President Johnson for am- nesty: “When Gen. Lee rec ,euest ed me to make a copy of this let-3dr to President Johnson, he remarked: It was but right for him to set an example of mak- ing formal submission to the Civil Au- thorities; and that he thought. by so do- ing, he might possibly be in a better po- sition to be of use to the Confederates who were not protected by military pa. roles; especially Mr. Davis. “G. W. C. LEE.” In laying to-day before our readers and the general public Gen. Robert E. Lee‘s application for a pardon, and his own declaration of the motives prompt- ing him to one of the most heroic acts of a life full of heroism. The Sun feels that it is adding lustre to a noble fame which is constantly growing as the years pass, and which is justly appreciated and gen- erously prized in the North as well as in the South—New York Sun. WAGES THE WORLD OVER. Enormous Variations from State to State and Country to Country. It is popularly suppose that the immu- table law of supplya 11d demand operat- ing throughout a c aunt: y makes the wages for the same labor uniform in every part of it, as a dearth of labor in any one place can rot be of long dura- tion while men are employed elsewhere. A recent supp lementary blul etin of the manufactu‘ es of theL nited States, how- ever, sho‘ws this general flew to be false. In Colors: 1.) the average yearly earn- ings of an emplove of‘) 1. manufacturing company we. 5 $730; in Montana. 87‘3'3; in Nevada. 8718, andrn Wyoming, 8708.

When it is considered to wnat extent the female and child labor enters into the factory operations in New York the figures are suprisingly high. The total wages paid in New York manufacturing enterprises amount in ordinary years to $500,000,030. England stands at the head in Europe as the bes: market for labor. Scotland and Fr'ia. ice are a. little behind her. Then there is a heavy drop until Austria, the Netherlands, and Belgium are reached; the scale goes still lower in Germany where the rare the same as in Ireland. Spain, Russ- . . .311 and Italy follow here in the or .111 given. According to the table of 2501130, an Italian authority, glassblowers are the best paid mechanics in Italy, and paper makers the poorest. ' The rate of wages in Italy. low as it is now, was still lower twenty-five years ago. In England the increase in the rate of wages has been about t' enty per cent. in tw enty-five years. A French bricklayer gets fifty per cent. more wages now than were paid for his work in France forty years ago. The ltIean Thing. “David,” exclaimed Mrs. Fogg, as her lord and master entered the house on a muddy day, “I’d be willing to bet al- most anything that you didn t wipe your feet on the mat before you came in here.’ “Well, Hannah,” replied Fog my shoes on it.” And then the aggravating thing laugh- ed like a hyena, just as though he had said somethidg awfully smart—Boston Transcript.

THE CURE OF DRUNKENNESS. Theory of the Disease. Some children will have the scarlet fever once, others may have it several times. Inoculation and vaccination are methods of preventing diseases which operate on this plan. The 1 Ems used is always the same ptomaine that causes the disease. This poison creates a vari- ation in the cells, enabling them to re- sist the poison of the disease. Smallpox- anthrax, chicken cholera, swine plague, Texas fever, hydrophobia and other di- . seases are prevented in this manner. Alcoholism is an acute or series of acute poisonings by alcohol. I believe the pathology is limited to this condition. Acute poisoning means a modification of cell nutrition, cell reproduction and cell brain cells the modified special function results 1n the manifestation known as drunkeness. Our school books and medicals jour- nals are filled with alcoholic pathologi- cal nerve degeneration. Temperance literature is filled with this sort of patho- logy with spiritual cures. In general terms the treatment of morphia and alcoholic poisoning is like the treatment of other diseases—by an- tagonizing symptoms and conditions. The true physician who has no hobby to serve and is not a slave to an edict or a dogma, will follow the methods of na- ture in his cures of disease. Looking at the first general principal of alcohol poisoning, an expert observer will see t not the method of cure or re- covery from a de oauch 111 the atavism of the cells, which can only result, how- ever, by either a sudden or gradual di- minution of the poison. I know of nothing more brutal than an enforcement of the rule to take away morphine 01' alcohol all at once from respective inebr‘iates. It is also dangerous. There is probably no phy- sical or mental sufiering equal to that which is caused by the complete with- drawal at once of the poison from a poi- son habitude. Yet it is the practice. I understand, in some of the so-called homes for the inebriate. The scientific and humane method of treating an inebriate is to gradually re- duce the drug and bring about the ata— visrn of the cells by equal methods. In alcoholic poisoning this can be done in a comparatively short time. My emul- sion combines food principles with an al- coholic preparation that upplies the needed nerve nourishment and the drug required to secure amvism of the nerve cell speedily and easily. After one night’s sleep, and generally not over two doses of the emulsion the patient will 1' efuse liquor if offered him. He is now ready for the cure, and the remedy is at once administered and con- tinued for four w eks, when the patient is cured. I have treated over tv 0 hundred thousand patients by this method with only five per cent. of failures. In the discovery of my method I did not follow empirical experiment alone. I investigated the question on the lines of natural selections relating to pathol- ogy. I learned that cells acquire an immunity from poisons by being poison- ed; that this immunityl .sts v cry long in ptomaine poisoning, but is 59.10:" 1 in other poisons. and that certain metals used as drugs will obliterate the vestiges 01' var- iation or whatever changes more may be in nerve cells after alcohol .111 1.. other poisons.

I find these pa 1tients as easily cured. as the periodical drinkers. The periodi .11 inebiiate ha slris spells and always reforms betw con spells. When he reforms his frionrrs declare he will never tale another drink. He learns that it is the first drink that ruins him. He signs pledge, .3, joins the church, goes to the “home ’ takes medicine, “turns over a new leaf” and swears off.” He takes material and spirit ual nost r.ums of all and any kind that.. e" 1e offered. He prays for strength and guidance but his next spree comes around on time 01‘ a little earlier. When a periodical dr‘unkard poisons his nerve centers he soon drowns out feeling. con-Science, sensation, emotion will and thought. The cells are stagger- ed and paralyzed. The more violent the onslaught the more v1 olent the resist- ance and the greater the reaction the greater the variation. will not be? .r food. He gives out gener- ally and as his alcohol fails to intoxicate and his stomach fails to retain the drug he begins to think. Remorse gets the start, and after a spell of agony more or less severe the next reformation fol- lows. The moral conduct and life of :this man are now the index of his will resist- ed by his diseased nerve cells. After a debauch his will is stronger. In time he loses his resistance by some machina- tion or accident and the debauch is re- peated. This class of cases is as easily curable as the other. The cure restores the in- tegrity of the nerve cells. There is no longer the periodical debauch, the rhythm is broken up. The opium habit is “let down” in very much the same manner. The nerve cells are greatly changed through atavism by a gradual lowering of the doses of the drug. Thus when a man can live with- morphine, the cure is insured—as much a certainty as though he had not touch- ed it for a year. LESLIE E. KEELEY, M. D. The \Vorld’s Need.
