Many people tremble when they go on board
ship TO take voyage across the Atlantic, and
we are too often called upon to record loss Of
life and suffering by accidents on our river
steamboats, and railroad trains; but few i'm
agine they are in danger by the horse cars in
our streets Yet II is evident from the acct
dents occurring frequently on and by these
street cars, and especially from the list Of acct
dents published In the HERALD yesterday, that
the risk OF life and limb is as great on the
streets as on the ocean or steam cars. In one
day there Is the record OF young lady being
killed and many persons injured by horse
car running down the descent in Atlantic
street, Brooklyn; OF two children being run
ever and seriously injured ct South Fifth and
Eleventh streets, Williamsburg Of o eolored
woman being knocked down and badly hurt
BY Bleeckcr stree, car, and Of man being
run over in Fulton avenue. Brooklyn. This ID
a fearful account OF casualties. - they are
called. In one day. Now. IL Is clear there must
be great careessness or reckessness on the
part Of the street car employees and companies
Doubtless all sorts OF excuses will be made for
these accidents. II may be said, in the Allan
tic street case, that the brakes would not act
in others thu, Il was dark. or that the vicsims
should have kept out Of the way, and so on |;
but these are lame excuses. The streets are
our public thoroughfares, and the lives OF the
people are not 10 be endangered by tho privi-
leges granted 70 the railway companies. The
cars should be 80 constructed that the brakes
would not fail 10 act instantly, and the conduc-
tors and drivers OF The cars should have light
enough 70 see what 10 before them and be CON-
PEELED TO keep vigilant watch along the streets
The car companies and their employees are to
blame, and they should be taught that they
cannot thus recklessly kill and musilass help
less children and Others We hope . searching
inquiry will be made and The blenders pun
ished This IL the only way 10 protect The
community from such recklessness.

The first step taken by the Pan-Anglcan
Synod was misstep-the exclusion Of news
paper reporters, which was tantamount to
ignoring the press as . medium of communi.
cation with the people. This step was
prompted by the same spirit which led the
Pope, about two years ago. to anathematize
the newspapers and other agents of modern
civilization. Almost all the journals of Great
Britain have agreed in exposing the folly Of
this misstep. A second step has been taken
by the Synod in the same retrogade path,
and the learned Bishop Colenso, as the repre-
sentative Of the principle OF fearless criticism
In the search after truth, has been formally
condemned by it. In this condemnation all
must share who accept the latest results OF
scholarly investigation. The Synod belabors
Bishop Colenso with as heavy blows as
Bishop Twells, who recently broke open
Bishop Colenso's church with sledge hammers,
and then preached sermon from the text,
"Our weapons are not carnal." According to
telegram of the 3Oth ult, the Synod has
taken also third step, which must be classed
among works Of supererogation. II has
adopted and issued an address condemning
81 one fell swoop three Offences" already
stigmatiEed by the English Church-rational-
ism, Popery and mariolatry, and seeking to
promote unity In the Church. The spectacle of
afsw bishops and priests Of the English Church
sxhorting the bishops and priests Of the older
and more numerous Greek and Latin Churches,
who BY no means return the compliment Of
recognizing the validity Of their ordination,
to unite with them, Ia somewhat amusing, to
say the least Of IL 1--we remember, moreover,
the limited powers ofthe Pan-Angican Synod
that Il Ia not authorized to settle anything or
define anything In respect 70 faith and
discipline that all the bishops OF England
can neither make nor snmake bishop without
instructions from prime minister; that they
can neither change nor even interpret the
articles or the liturgy, nor modify the local
legislation which governs the churches in the
colonies-we shall not attach great practical
importance to this singular Episcopal convsn-
don. Doubtless II will be the occasion Of
many good dinners at Lambeth and elsewhere;
but we cannot easily conceive what else can
have tempted Bishop Hopkins and other
American bishops to become delegates TO H.

gates could bring 10 II would be full state

THE PoISoNs OF THE DAY.-The late tenn
perance Investigations in Massachusetts have
thrown a flood OF light on the horrible abuses
practised in the liquor trade, and have at the
same time demonstrated the absolute necessity
for unadulterated dtffusive stimulants for
medicinal purposes. Clergymen of the highest
standing, men of the highest rank in science,
and philanthropists, who are above the reach
of prejudice, have testified not only to the per-
nicious effects of the adulterated liquors of
taminated alcoholic tonics as remedial and
restorative agents.
First on the list of this class of preparations,
best known, and most extensively used OF all
the stomachics OF the day. stands HosTETTER's
STOMACH BITTERs. This specific is the only
representative of that absolutely pure article
which eminent divines, chemists, physicians
and social economists in New England have
just declared not to be proper subject for pro-
hibitory legislation The faculty proclaims by
the mouths of It's professors that a stlmulant OF
this character is a medical necessity. HOSTEL
TER's BTTTERs satisfies all the requirements OF
science. Its alcoholic principle is free from the
irritating constituents which analysis detects
in even the best imported liquors, and the vege
table extracts with which 1t is medicated are
among the best antidotes and restoratives that
botanical science, in its worldwide research
has yet discovered. 1t is an indubitable fact
nat some constitutions and habits of body de
mand stimulation, and for all such a stimulant
| which combines anti-bilious and slightly ape
lent properties with its tonic virtues is mani
estly desirable.
