In the construction Of a barn yard, many
farmers seem to think that little or no plan

the yard, whetheritis to be on the east.

the case, down some hin. 'ss@sas s~@ s. s,'l'
There are farmers who think that a stream
of water running directly through their bau1
yards, for watering stock, is good thing,
whereas it is the worst place far one that
can be imagined, taking the savinglof the

the stream, and pass off where it does no

A great. desideratum IN constructing a
barn yard, is the preservation of the manure !;
and for that purpose, 1t should be excavated

TIE QUARANTINE QURsTION.

Another twenty -four hours is gone and cannot
learn that much has been done toward the relief OF
the choleraprsoners in the bay, or toward the Sc
curity Of the city. Our reports will show in what
condition the sick and well on the Falcon and Peru
Wan continue. We scarcely know which is the
worse off, The Falcon, which is called hospital
ship, is floating hell to which are consigned from
time to time the doomed and helpless wretches who
came passengers on the Peruvian and the
Union Cholera patients and smallpox patients
are crowded together between the close decks OF
rotten ship, till the diseases intermngle in the
body, and what one might have spared the two con-
sumo. 1t is a horrible torture and almost certain
murder to send thther man i'll with the early symp-
toms of durable disease. 1t is not much better to
leave him on what they ca-with dreadful mock
ery--the well ship; ship mpregnated with cholera
poison, and crowded with passengers who must be
prodges Of courage if they dc not die from fear-he
surest predisposng cause of cholera.
The Health authorities know, better than we can
describe what these innocent men and women are
made to suffer- yet they still hesitate to act. They
have had an uninterrupted month in which 10 estab-
lsh suitable quarantine aud they have done exactly
nothing There was time TO discuss whether mineral
waters should be sold in the Central Park, but no
time to select site for quarantine seize it, put build.
ings up, guard them, and defy the pestilence.
We were assured yesterday morning that the
Board of Health had resolved TO take pos.
session of Coney Island, but an evening
paper, apparently on Mr. schultzs authority denies
it, and says no such proposition has ever been con.
sdered. With GOODNESS that. in such circumstances,
is appalling the President Of the Board Of Health
gives out that sin few days" they will do some
thing No, we are wrong. They don't propose to
do anything, but in few days they will agree upon

MUAIC.

1t should hardly be necessary to suggest to the
gentlemen whohaye charge of rebuilding the Academy
of Music that it is imperatiyely necessary to make
securely ire-proof In building exclusively devoted
to one purpose, free from conflicting possibilities of
danger, with ample means devoted to its erection,
perfect exemption from fire can be had beyond any
peradventure Wedo not propose to dictate any special
plan; the means must necessarily conform to the de-
sign; but we desire TO impress upon the minds OF
the Directors that they about to erect house and
not a warehouse; that the goods to be stored there
are human beings and not bales Of cotton, and that
great responsibility rests upon the results OF their
labors.
We are of opinion that private individuals have too
much license inerectng places of public amusement;
using their own judgment, and shaping that according
to the interests Of their pockets regardless of the ter
rble consequences which might result from such poll
ICY In France the erecting Of building such as the
Academy of Music should be, is a matter of official
supervision Plans are received up to a certain date,
and thoroughly examined. They are then placed in
the Institute for a month"; where they receive the
seyeres scrutiny from experts all which relates to
the subject whose objections and suggestions are
noted, and through this public criticism all the good
points are evolved the weak points exposed, and the
judges guided TO right decision.
Some such system should be adopted here. The
competition should be open, and the plans, when re-
ceived should be deposited in the of the Amer
lean Institute, where they could be inspected by
practical men, the value of whose opinions would be
beyond dispute Such a course would give conf
dencc to the public, and maintain that the public
has an undoubted right to know all about the safety
of building which they will in the end have to pay
for and use

TAXING NATIONAL BANKS.

1t has been legally settled that the exemption oil
National securities from Federal, State or local TAXA
ton, doe, not exempt Bank stocks from such taxation,
though the capital of the Banks may be mainly vested
in those securities In other words: particular use
of those obligations is taxable, though the securities
themselves are not The Government guarantees the
holders against taxation to the extent OF single
profit; if they undertake to make second on 'he
same capital they must pay their taxes on this use
like other people.
We hear with surprise that certain bankers are
seeking to have this most righteous and wholesome
adjudication subverted by oct of Congress. We do
not fear that they will prevail; but we none the less
regret the attempt. Our National Banks. wherever
decently managed, have done we'll for their stock
holders. We hope they will continue to do SO. But
we have very heavy debt to shoulder and no buS-
ness is better able to pay its part than that OF Bank
ing. 1t will have to pay. and it may better 10 50
with good grace Let there be no wry faces, but
general resolve to meet the requirement heartily
maniully, and pay the taxes

LIES OF MULTITUDE.

Why is it that persons who would hesitate to be
caught lying separately will get together and re-
solve" the most atrocious fasehood without a blush
or a twingei
Sundry Germans residing in our City gathered yes
terday at Union Square to attest and proclaim their
opposition to our new Excise Law, was their per-
feet right to do In so far they spoke truth, they
are entitled to respectful consideration.
But the managers knew right well, though their
ignorant dupes did not that the prohibition of Sunday
quor.selling was alrays part of the common law
of this State, as of her neghbors adacent--that the
new Excise Act simply makes better provision for the
enforcement of what has been the law here for gen.
erations When, therefore, they resolve that 1.-THE
present Excise and Sunday law is the abortive and
unnatural product of sectional fanaticsm," &C., &c.
they lie and deceive their ignorant followers and SO
deserve the most indignant ebuke. That they should
90 on to make other reckless and baseless asser'
tons is natural; and when they tell US that our laws
are "in direct conflict with the spirit underlying
the foundations of our free republican institutions,
they compel us to remind them that the much abused
"Puritans" of this country founded republic which
the Liberals of the Old World have not yet surpassed
and under whose agis many millions of them have
been glad to find shelter. 1t was in Europe not here
that the term Libertine-once signifyng champion
of Liberty-became tainted and mildewed-these
gentlemen help us to understand how and why
1t may not be modest, but it is quite in order, Tor
Germans to lecture Americans on the nature and spirit
of our free institutions, and strive to show US how
they should be recast in accordance with the higher
intelligence and nober civilization of the heroes OF
1889 Let them give us their lessons; we will heed
and endeayor to profit by them. But when they at
tempt to face us down in transparent e-to brazen
it out that Sunday liquor-selng has hitherto been
legal here, aud that to prohibit it is an innovation
they pass the bounds of controversial decency and ex-
pose themselves to general contempt.

a plan" A plan for what Why ga plan TO OBJ
tain grounds upon which to erect buildings
for the use of well persons who mo-
arrive upon vessels infected by cholera or other con-
tagous diseases" In the illimitabe future this auto
cratic Board of Health hope to do something for pros
pectiye cargoes of cholera but for the relief of the
mass of misery down the bay, and for the immediate
protection of the city they have not even plan to
PROPOSE nor does anybody seem inclined to step for
ward and supply the deficiency.
We beg leave to assure Mr.. Schultz that the public
is waiting with impotence TO see him do that rasn
thing" which he promised on Friday We assure MIN
in all seriousness that public opinion will not merely
tolerate but demands, total disregard oil iormaiiues
and statutes if that be necessary to save us from the
horrors of the lower bay and from the impending
danger on land The Legislature meant to put des'
motto powers into the hands of the Board
of Health to the end that prompt pre-
cautions and energetic measures against public peru
might be taken If the Legislature failed to make
its law strong enOugh-of which we have no evidence
the intent of the law still remains, and public
opinion remains and the peril is here, and nobody
cares for the statute, but everybody looks to the
Board for some action that will justify its existence
There has been none yet-speaking with reference TO
the cholera. Yet Mr.. Schultz said on Friday,
and said justly, that if he did not succeed
within the next four or five days, all his work would
be useless No doubt it will, and of these four or
five days, three have already passed; yet now' Mr.
Schultz tells newspaper reporter that in few days
more, he hopes plan will be agreed on. We have
every respect for Mr.. SchulS good intentions, but
we call this triAing with O momentous and an imml
nent peril
Since the above was written. we have received IN
telgence which leads us to suppose that the Board
is on the point of doing something How much it Will
do cannot say, but we presume it cannot attempt
less than to occupy quarantine station somewhere on
shore Still, We let what We have written stand
as the partial expression Of public impotence
that approaches evaporation and as a spur
to the resolutions Of the Board. We shall be
very glad to announce tomorrow that New-York has
at least site for Quarantine. Then, If the Board
will instantly put the cholera patients on shore, both
sick and WELL burn up their horrible old hulk, the
Falcon, and in future protect their ground by force
strong enough to defy assault, we hope there may be
chance of repairing the disasters and disgrace OF their
past inexcusable delay.
