Compendious and Comprehensive. The
Ledger, in IFS imposing way, sets down all
Europe as having "gone to the dogs" In
letting us know how, it enumerates The
'curses,' as it calls them, of that continent
as follows: s
Most of Europe, especially the catholic
portion, is demoralized. Jesuitism, Four
ierism, lanatacism Of all kinds, have made
it moral chaos. Common sense is confid-
ed to small minority. All the rest are
distracted by extremes, either Of supersti-
ton or infdelity, despotism or anarchy.
All these mischiefs seem TO flow from
three sources; aristocracy, finance and
Jesuitism. Either is sufficient TO annihi-
late the rights and blast the hopes of man.
kind. All, operating together, have con-
verted all Europe into Pandemonium.-
This Greek word signifies all the Devils,
or Place of all The Devils. Landed aris-
tocracy and finance rule England; aris-
tocracy and Jesutism starve Ireland. Jes-
utism and finance keep France in fermen-
alton; and all three distract Germany, It.
ally and Spain. And all three have de-
feated, thus far, the hopes Of those who,
less than two years ago, expected Eu-
ropes speedy emancipation.
The Ledger adds the great want Of The
republicans in Europe is moderation, COM
mon sense and patience. The Hungari-
ans show them and will probably succeed.

THt FIRST SAw-M1IL.-The old prac-
tice in making boards, was to split up the
logs with wedges inconveniert as the
practice was, il was no easy matter to per-
suade the world that the thing could be
done in any better way. Saw mills were
first used in Europe in the fifteenth csntu-
~; but 70 late as 1866, an English ambas-
ssdor, having seen saw-mill in France,
thought it novelty which deserved a par
ticular description. It is amusing to see
how the aversion 10 labor-saving machine
~ has already agitated England. The
first saw-mill established by a Dutchman
in 1863; but the public out-cry against the
new machine was so violent that the pro-
prie,or was forced to decamp with more
expedition than ever did Dutchman be-
fore. The evil was thus kept out Of
England for several years. or rather gen.
eraiions !; but in 1863 an unluck'y timber
merchant hoping that after so long Tune
the public would be less watchful oil ITS
own interest, made rash attempt TO con-
struct another mill. The guardians oftbe
public welfare, however, and conscien-
tious mob at once collected and pulled the
mill to pieces. Such patriotic sp'rn
could not always last; and now, though
we have here seen the fact distinctly stated,
there is a reason to believe that saw-iniils
are used in England.

The Late Epidemic-A Fearful Table.

me- Aotc EplOem1c-A Fearfut Iubies
We have taken the trouble to procure
from the Registers Office an authentic
statement Of the whole number of inter-
ments in the Cemeteries Of this city, from
the 25d day of April, to the 9th of Au-
gust, 1889. The laws of this State in re-
gard to interments in public burial grounds
are very severe, and we have no reason
to suppose that they have been disregard
ed IN any instance. In some Cemeteries,
it is understood that they report greater
number OF deaths, for two or three weeks,
than is here set down, amounting to some
fifty or sixty, but we account for the dis
crepancy by supposing that there were
cases OF interments Of persons dying at the
Coal Mines, several miles from the city,
and in which no regular certificates, such
as the law requires, were furnished. 1t
has been stated that large numbers Of per-
sons dying in St. Louis, have been inter-
red in Illinois and in the surrounding
conntry, Of which no note has been taken.
We do not believe this is true, to any con-
siderable extent, and we are quite certain
that more persons have been brought to
the city grave yards from abroad, for the
purpose Of interment, than have been Ia
ken from the city, with view to inter-
ment elsewhere.
What fearful tale is told in this chron-
icle Of deaths doings In little over
one hundred days, six thousand persons
have been committed 10 the grave-and
this out Of population Of less than Co.,
COO! This is an awful mortality-per-
haps greater than has ever occurred in
any city Of the United States, with the
same population. 1t is to be observed,
however, that good many hundreds Of
these persons were not really citizens Of
St Louis, but had just landed here-bring-
ing the seeds Of death within them, ard,
still more unfortunate, carrying death into
whatever quarter they went. To this
cause, indeed, is to be attributed vast
portion Of the mortality which has been
recorded; and if the people are wise they
will avoid, as far as possible contributing
to similar epidemics hereafter, by insist
ing upon greater regard to cleanliness and
the proper ventilation Of the houses occu-
pied by these people and by compelling
the owners of all such places as Shep-
ards Grave Yard" to fill them up and
put the houses in proper and healthy con-
dition. There are numberless such pla-
ces in the city, and we only specify this
one because the people are more familiar
with il than others. Mo. Republican.

BERTAD:-cANTo
Thou war-scathed hill mirror'd in the wave
Which idly foaming, laves thy granite side;
Where once the mighty struggled hard to save
Their bleeding country from the grasp of pride:
In her defence they fought, and nobly died;-
Upon thy brows, their deeds, are traced in flame,
Which while that Ocean, round thee rolls its tide,
A grateful country, shall record their fame
At least, each patriot heart, glow at Warren's
name.
Ills dust is on thee! sure thou'rt sacred ground!
And patriot freemen there may walk and weep
There sadly musing bend or turn around
To ask where now does Freedoms martyr sleep;
See that fair-rising, snow-white granite heap
That greets the days first blush; and latest ray;
When rising seen Or last upon the deep:
Yes; meath that pile, in glory rests his clay,
Approach ye patriots to his dust some tribute pay
Time may wear wrinkles round his mothers brow
The gray old Earth but never on bis fame
Shall rude otdision drive her gaping plough;
Or mar the wreath that binds the hero's name
TOO mighty to be riven by cloud or fame;
1t stands immortal, venerably, deary
And awes that land he struggled to reclaim
From Thradom's yoke; and win, till all that's here
Shall dfoop' and die, and |s''e Creation wan and

The Connecticut river is lower now
than it has been at any time since 1916,
when it was ten inches lower than at this
time. In the year named, it was at low
er stage than it had been for more than a
hundred years previous. AS may be in
ferred, there is exceedingly little water
running now in the stream and while
this is very favorable for the construction
Of the Dam at the New City, it is unfor-

The following new prescription for

morning from the text: "Yet We sought
not unto God but unto the physicians:"-
I'D Chron., Is, IL, gave 10 the congre-
CATION the following cholera specific:
OF Faith, as much as will receive all
Gods promises.
OfHope, as much as will stay upon them.
OfLove, as much as the heart will hold.
OfRepentance, enough no breakthe heart
Of Hatred Of Sin, enough. TO produce
hungerings and thirstings after righteous
ness, taken always with Prayer.
This, the Rev. DR.. represents as free
from all the nostrnms and qliackeries Of
mans invention;a certain remedy for every
Presidential disease, and moreover may be
perfectly understood and safely taken by
all, "without money and with ont price.

Kill or otherwise dispose of the lamb;

to be quick about it, as it was inconyeni-

believe Solomon says it is not good to
be vain-glorious. At all events, while
we were skimming along SO CALAMITY, the
whale suddenly milled, and pitched the
boat on her beam ends. Every one who
could grasp athwart hung on to it, and we
were all fortunate enough TO keep our
seats. For as much as ships length the
boat flew through the water, ON her gun
vale, foaming and whizzing as she dash
ed onward. 1t was rather matter Of
doubt as to which side would turn upper
most, until, Tabor Stacked out the line
when she righted. To have boat, with
all her irons, lances, gear and oars, piled
on ones head in such sea, was rather a
startling prospect to the best swimmer.
Meanwhile the whale came TO the sur
face to spout. The change in his course
had enabled the mates boat to come up,
and we Law on our oars that Mr. D
might lance him. He struck him in the
life the first dart was evident from the
whales furious dying struggles; never
theless in order to make sure, we hauled
up and churned lance back Of his head.

The sea around was literally sea Of
blood. AT one moment his head was pois-
ed in the air, the next buried him in the
CORY sea, carving down in his vast wake
a whirlpool of foam and slime. But this
respite was short. He rose again, rush
ing furiously upon his enemies; but a
slight prick Of the lance drove him back
with mingled fury and terror. Which
ever way he turned, the barbed irons
goaded him to desperation. Now and
again intensity Of agony would cause him
to lash the water with his huge fukes, till
the very ocean appeared to heave and
tremble at his power. Tossing, strug.
Cling, dashing over in his agony, he spout.
ed up the last OF his hearts blood. Hall
an hour before he was free as the wave,
sporting in all the pride Of its gigantic
strength and unrivalled power. He now
lay lifeless mass; his head towards the
sun, his tremendous body heaving to thu
swell, and his destroyers proudly cheer

The editor of the New York Sunday
Atlas, who We believe is Mr. S. S. South
worth, late a Custom House officer, and
formerly the New York correspondent
of the Boston Post, under the signature Of
:Jolln Smith, Jr., Of Arkansas, has been
writing life Of Captain Rynders Of the
Empire Club. The writer says that the
organization Of the Empire Club cost Ryn-
de1s individually four thousand dollars
The sachems of Tammany Hall disliked to
acknowledge fellowship with Rynders, and
would not contribute money TO aid in his
operations. But the Captain knew. upon
whom to draw, and whom to bleed. In
the month of September and October,
1874, upwards Of forty thousand dollars
were collected from forced loans on the
New York Custom House, and paid over
to the Empire Club, to be used in opera
ting on the then pending Presidential cleo
ton. This discreditable fact is vouched
for by the editor Of the Atlas, who says
he was himself assessed, but upon threat
ening to shoot the applicant, or "treat him
as common foot-pad," he escaped taxa
ton. It was in this way, that the wings
in New York were beaten by Government
