QUARANTINE OF DOMESTIC DIS.
EASES.

Where is the Health Bill No progress is
made upon that important measure, while the
grave yawns for the victims Of pestilenee now
scourging portions Of the city. On Saturday a
report was made to the Board of Police that in
fve-story tenement house on First-aye.,
3Ox45, occupied by over ninety miserable human
beings, six had died Of typhoid fever within
very short period, aud eleven are now
sick Of the same contagious disease. All the
other inmates are so situated that they are
exposed to the malignant atmosphere which has
stricken down their companions The sanitary
laws and the sanitary officers are insufficient to
afford prompt remedy. The Board of Police
order a complaint to be made before q magis-
trate against the owneri the warrant is served;
the owner comes in and sets up defense deny
ing the truth of the complaint, and is, of course,
granted time TO test the question; doctors are
produced, who give their testimony upon the
causes of disease; lawyers make long speeches,
with earnest appeals to the genius Of our insti-
tutions, and protest against the interference
with private rights. During all this time the
citizens are exposed TO the deadly effects OF
disease Of which this vile tenement is the cen
ter. And when the Court has decided that the
edifce in It's present condition Is dangerous to
the public health. no order can be made to dis
pose of its inmates and to take care OF tia sick
and there is no provision for the expense of
either proceeding

Of the city; yet no measures arc practically in
operation to guard the citizen against

much to protect us against diseases imported BY

President LIYCoLN's address to the crowd
who waited on him at the White House last
evening will be regarded as reserved and indeci-
siye by some, who fail duly to consider the
grave Importance justly attached to every word
uttered by him at this time which bears upon
the grave questions raised by the Rebellion and
its overthrow. We hold that the President
might we'll have declined to speak at oil for the
present, and presented his views only through
a scrupulously weighed and carefully guarded
Proclamation.
But, the Presidents manifesto was lesslucid
and definite than some may have expected and
wished, It's tenor and spirit are kindly and as
surfing. He is evidently determined TO do
whatever he deems fairly within his power to
restore our country speedily to peace and heal
the wounds inevitably inflicted by years of gi-
gantic and desolating Civil War. We cannot
doubt that further and more conclusive proofs
of this will speedily be given, and that the
progress of padfcation and restoration will
henceforth be RAPID and unbroken.

A remarkable illustration OF the " incoher-
ence" (to use a term Suddenly become fashion,
able) OF modern Industry is afforded by the con-
dition of the British Iron Trade at the date Of
our latest advices. The several steps which
have led to it are substantially these
!. The British Iron-masterS have a general
rule or understanding that the wages paid to
their laborers shall be graduated from time to
''mo the ruling price of Iron.
H. iioh ing fallel some ten per cent.
about the close OF l".' year, the iiV.- --.~-- -
North Stafordshire decree1 corresponding re-
duction in the wages of their puddlrs.
III. The puddlers refused to work at the re-
duced rates offered them, or "struck."
" The masters. in the belief that the
strikers were sustained in their course by con-
tributions from the iron-workers Of the en-
tire kingdom, resolved on general lock-
out" or closing of their works, until the North
Staffordshire strike should be given up. So the
entire trade stands paralyzed; no iron is being
made; and very considerable per centage Of
the productive industry Of Great Britain is
rigidly idle. Meantime, contracts are une1e-
cuted, works fall into decay, capital has no
income, poverty is consuming its scanty re-
sources, and children lack bread.
We think the masters right in insisting that
Labor should receive definite proportion Of
the value Of its product rather than fixed aid
arbitrary sum; but then who can say that the
masters were willing to make a compact with
their men whereof this rule should be the basis
Iron falls from $50 to Si5 per tun, and the
masters plausibly say, "You puddlers must sub
NIT TO a corresponding reduction OF your
wapes:" but suppose Iron Common Barr had
suddenly nsen from $50 to so per tun, would
the masters have accorded q corresponding in.
crease of wages as o right We judge not
Yet this point seems to US a vital one.
Of course, the ready solution Of the problem
he likes with his own" An iron-master may
run his works when he chooses and stop them
when he sees fit he may pay such wages as he
will, and refuse to pay any more. So laborer
may work when he can get what be deems fair
wages, and strike when he is dissatisfied. Such
is the essence of the current teaching on this
point It's wisdom we see illustrated in the
present anarchy and paralysis of the British
Iron Trade.
We firmly believe that there is a more ex-
cellent way"--that a Social or Industrial system
is practicable wherein the interest of laborer
and capitalist, employer and workman, shall be
accordant rather than antagonist, and wherein
strikes shall be impossible, because in palpable
opposition to the interest Of each and all. And
we regard such spectacles as that now presented
by the British Iron Trade as useful, in that
they tend to shed light on the existing false re-
lations Of Capital and Labor, and impel to
changes Of signal and lasting bencfcence.

The President, yesterday, issued another
Proclamation demanding that United States
vessels of war should have the same privileges
accorded to them by foreign Governments as
are given to their vessels when in our ports.
Should these privileges be denied, after sufficient
time has elapsed for the Proclamation to have
become known to those powers, foreign vessels
are to be treated here as our own are in those
countries to which such vessels belong This is
equivalent to demand for the withdrawal Oh
bclligerent rights hitherto accorded to the
Rebels by foreign powers

"any public pier, dock or wharf" without pay
ing fair rent for it, then We insist that this
section be so amended as to make the obliga-
ton to pay indubitable. We have so often
exposed the futility and iniquty of our system
of Public Markets-the wretched tumble-down
rookeres with which that system disgraces
certain of the best portions of our City-the
inconcevable folly of maintaining huddle
of markets at that end Of our City where its
people have mainly ceased to reside-the collu-
sion and jobbery between officials and
tenants of stalls whereby the public is grossly
defrauded-the monopoly of the Market bust
ness by spectators and middlemen to the virtu'
al exclusion of farmers and gardeners-that we
have little now to add; but it is our deliberate
conviction that, if every Public Market in our
City should take fire tonight and burn to ashes,
and the laws forbade the rebuilding them unde
our present system, the City would be benefited
at least 81 ,OOO, 900 by the conhagration. We
want Market system under which any farmer
or gardener may drive his wagon undera capa-
cious roof or shelter and sell out his load OF pro-
duce 10 whoever shall choose to buy it, paying
dime or so per hour for the privilege Of so do
ing. We want to see our present Monopoly
Markets utterly abolished. As beginning OF
this great and vital reform, we pray our Legs
lature to pass the Metropolitan Market bill
There may be provisions in it that need amend
ment; but its passage would increase the value
of every farm and garden near our City, while
decidedly cheapening the food of our citizens
Do let us see if Food cannot, as well as Fabrics,
be brought within convenient distance of pur.
chasers by private enterprise, and sold from
structures which are not exactly novels.
