but also because | cannot afford Its Wis

Now | am fully satisfied that there
is no way that the health OF the poorer

preserved, except by rendering our

tenn of drainage, Our soil is heavy, wet
aud retentive. Our cellars areas gen.
eral thing, part of the year flooded, and

the courage to descend into one of them,
you will find the air fmtid, impure and
oppressive. You cast about you for
some remedy, but experiment as you
may, you will at last retire from the I'M
availing effort hopelessly discouraged.
Ventilation will not remedy the evil,
and any reasonable attempt at private
drainage, is at once futile and foolish.

and foul with constantly accumulating
garbage, excreta, and noxious gases,

do not sympathize with that line OF
argument that is calculated to array one
class of our citizens against another.
The rich and the poor, the roble and the
ignoble, the learned and the unlearned
are alike subject to disease, and have, as
general thing deep and vital If not in
all cases, an equal interest in this ques'
ton.
AS aman having at heart the welfare
of my own family-and as citizen de,

reside-I hope this question will be
fairly considered, and receive its only
really practical solution at an early day

The GAMBLING FRATERNIrY. - The
World in its series OF sketches of disre-
putable classes OF New York describes
the "rope-in," or gamblers agent, whose
business 1t is to decoy unsuspecting
strangers into faro banks and receive as
compensation for his time and trouble a
share of their losses. About four hun
dred and fifty men make their living in
this way. The aggregate amount re.
ceived by them in year is estimated at
about three quarters Of million OF dol
lars. On this basis the losses OF unso-
phisticated persons through the decoy
system is over So 100000 per annum.
The plan of the roper.in is, to make the
acquaintance and secure the confidence
of his intended victim, on the strength
Of pretended former meeting, or
friendly game of billiards, or if the
stranger be piously inclined, visit to a
fashionable church. Some of the ropers-
in were formerly men in good social po-
sitiens who, beginning with ga small
game" of faro, have sunk to their pres.
ent station. But the majority of them
are SIMPLY low lived wretches, not the
protectors but the protected of women
of the vilest character.

The JUAREz MINISTRY AND MAXrMTL-

try met several times while Maximilian's
case was pending end had it argued be-
fore them. 1t seems thatIthey were all
in favor of having him sentenced and
executed anyhow, with the exception OF
Minister Iglesins, who opposed that
opinion with some energy, and among
other reasons he gave was, that the En-
peror Macmillan had been recognized
by about four-fftbs of the nation, and
had also been recognized by all the for
eign nations, save the United States, and
that he ought to be treated as bellig-
erent but the other members who could
not control their feelings, said they
would only recognize him as a fillibus'
ter, and as such he should be tried by an
ordinary court martial that in the per
son of the Emperor Macmillan they did
not recognize the Emperor of Mexico,
but Macmillan de Hapsburg, the fill
buster, and as such he must die.

The FOURTH or July IN MExIoo.-We
take the following account Of the cele-
bration of the Fourth OF July In the City
Of Mexico from the correspondence OF
the New York Herald. A fine compli-
ment ia bestowed on Frederick Hall,
Esq., former citizen of Rutland, who
was among the speakers on that occa-
sion. Mr.. Hall is popular among the Am
erican residents in the City of Mexico;
and has been doing the United States
Government much valuable service:
The Consul of the United States,
through the newspapers of the city, in
vited American citizens to appear at the
Consulate, which would be opened at 8
O'Clock on the Fourth of July, and the
Declaration OF Independence read at 6
olock. The day dawned brilliantly upon
our national flag floating over the Con-
sul's residence, and the flag of Mexico
waving In cordial response over the Pal
ace and other public edifices. This wac
intended by the political chief, D. Juan
Jose Bay, as mark of especial recogni-
ton and respect to a sister republic after
the rude shock given to Mexico by the
European Papers. Many citizens called
between three and six o'clock at the Con-
sulate, did the honors and retired in
| preparation for the serious work OF the
evening. At six the Declaration VIZ 4
read by the Consul to about sixty pei =,
sons assembled to hear that grand char
ter OF liberty, to which only those who
on similar occasion in a foreign land
have listened can fully appreciate in it's
| depth of tone and solemn enunciation.
From the Declaration the company were
ushered into large saloon, festooned
with the United States flags, where q
handsome supper was presented. AS
the viands and the skirmishers 1.-THE bot
tles) disappeared, spirits rose, and every
| thing was BOW ready for the regular
toasts and the speeches, without which
an American in no part of the inhabi-
table globe can convince himself that he
Is patriot or persuade others into q
participation OF such inalineable convic-
ton. Washington, the constitution,
toasts and wine were duly drank, except
ing the memory of Mr. Jefferson -
whether because 1t is not " the thing"
now to remember him, or because in
listening to the Declaration enough
honor has been paid to the philosopher
who reasoned into thought and language
the feelings of our forefathers, nobod y
stopped to ask. The feast now began to
grow fast and furious" Judge Ere d.
erick Hall, from California, spoke as
only he knows how to speak-harmo ny
and all our discussions "deep in the
bosom of the ocean buried, formed the
web and wool of his discourse-and after
a charming little Grafton sat down amid
laundering applause. He had accom-
plished the end and aim Of eloquence-
every body was satisfied.
Mr.. Hall was followed by Major Clark
Of Maryland, Ex-Governor Reynolds Of
Mississippi and the American Consul.

business was made and waiting for her.
He doubted not that she would see that
the eastern end of this railroad connec-
ton was built, for by the events of the
past year she had shown she had will
and where there was wiz there was q
wGy. This speech, which we have so
poorly reported, was full of facts, and
received applause, as did all.

THE SUGAR CRoP.-The New Orleans
Times says the yield of sugar in Louisi-
ana this year will be much less than
was expected. The excessive rains have
prevented proper attention being given
to the cane, while they stimulated the
growth of grass and weeds, which have
choked it. In the Island Of Cuba the
very reverse seems to be the case. The
weather has Oeen more than usually
favorable, no mishaps of any nature
have occurred, and there is every pro.
spect at present that the labors of the
Cuban planters will be reward with a
most abundant yield of cane sweets.

the legal points in the case and submit
ted them to the jury without reading.
Mr.. Darlington, after summing up all
the testimony in the case, and arguing
forcibly against all the points which the
defense have sought to establish thus
far in trial, made an earnest appeal to
the jury, urging them ITO maintain the
integrity ofthe law and wipe this damn
ing stain from the escutckeon of the
country" The jury were told that they
must be cruel to be just, and that it was
their duty to assign TO the prisoner at
the bar the punishment which be so
righteuusly deserves. He is murderer
