Soft appears that the chances of life in Phadel-
pbia are double those in New-IOrk. The records
of infant mortality in the two cities show that one
half of the children born in Philadelphia die under
ten years of age whereas, one-half OF those born
in New-York die under five years Of age. The
highest medical authorities attribute the excess OF
mortality in New-York over other cities to its
Stiffness filthy streets and filthy tenement houses

least ten thousand every year. Ten thousand VIC
tins of dirt nothing but dirt. Think of it, reader
thirty human beings are laid in their collins every
day in New-York City, murdered victims of Sham

We have q pile Of communications respecting
Schuyler County and the proposed legislation con-
cerDipg it. We cannot make room for them, but
few words will sum up all that need be said on the
subject. We are decidedly in favor of letting
Schuyler County, like any other county, have her
own way with regard to her domestic matters; and
If any legislation is required to that end, whether
to ascertain the popular viii or give effect to it, we
favor such legislation. But to any act intended to
take their local matters out of their own hands, and
settle them arbitrarily by outside dctaton, we are
inflexiby opposed, and ever shall be. That is the
whole story.

Mr.. Mcqueen of South Carolina takes deep
interest in the oppression of the shoeaAers OF Mas
sachusetts by the capitalists of that State; and
offered in the House Of Representatives yesterday a
resolution looking to the abolition of the duties On
leather, with the purpose of relieving their distress
We are glad to see in that quarters much care for
the prosperity of the aboring freemen of the coun
try. But if MIR. Mcqueen really desires to benefit
the mechanics of all parts of the Republic, let him
devote his energies to securing the enactment of
Mr. Morrills Tariff bill. Make that law, and
prosperity viii become universal, and strikes will be
everywhere forgotten.

the protesers to look the fact n the face that the

We give to-day cOpious and choice extracts from
the report of the testimony taken before the Inves-
tigating Committee now sitting in Washington, of
which Mr.. Haskin Of this State is Chairman. 1t
appears that the profits made by the public printers
for the last six years amount to the snug sum OF
about two millions of dollars. 1t appears, also,
that under the personal direction of President Bu-
ehanan considerable part of this plumber was ju-
diciously employed in pensioning Democratic pa
pers and in helping to elect, or in trying to elect
Democratic candidates for Congress In Pennsyl-
yania, and in this city.

The Governors Of the Alms-Hous affect to be-
lieve that the exposure Of their malfeasance, riot
and debauchery. which We recently laid before the
public in these columns, was the work of parties
who had been discharged from employment by them;
and they would fam have the public suppose that
the facts we stated were but the invention of private
dscontent and personal animosity. This is gratu-
tcus and groundless allegation of theirs. Our arti
Gle was the result of prolonged and patient inves
tigaton, undertaken solely by The tribune for
the information of the public and OF the Legsla-
ture; and if the Board will venture TO test tho
validity Of the damning charges we brought against
them in any Court where We can compel the POSI-
tive disclosure of the truth, We think We might
safely attempt to prove our case, and more from
the evidence which we would draw even from the
poisiest aud rowdiest members Of the Board tsell'

shoe was made of new iron, with eight
double punched nail holes. This is proba-
