GROWTH OF ELIZABETH.

BY the census of 1860, the popula-
$4,000, at the recent election the total
vote was 1851. Assuming the same
proportion between the voting and the
total population to exist now as in 1860,
We must have a population of between
%, 900 and $4,000 We might add to
this number the population of Roselle.
Crawford, Lyons Farms, Linden, and
the adjoining suburbs, which, though
not included within the corporate linn
It's, really belong to Elizabeth, aiding
this additional number we have a pop
ulation of about 10000, an increase Of
over so per cent in eight years.
A very large proportion Of this in-
crease has been achieved within the last
four years, and during thepresent year
it has been particularly marked More
houses have been rented III Elizabeth
and its suburbs, since last Spring than
In any preceding year, and tenants
are found for all, and at high rents, as
soon as they are ready for occupancy.
In fact the growth of Elizabeth has but
just commenced.
The first long step in advance was
the building of the Horse Railroad,
which has done much to increase our
population, and add to our enterprise
and prosperity The establishment
of the Rolling Mill and the various
other extensive factories at the Port
has greatly contributed in adding to
our wealth, while the DAILY MONITOR
reflects the intelligence and energy of
all classes of our citizens. Another
year will be marked by still greater
progress.

MANNERS AND MORALS. What is the
difference between good manners and
good morals? Will good manners
make man OF must he be possessed
of good morals also ? If good manners
be genuine they are good morals, for
they are founded ON the law of justice
coin in circulation in the sphere of
manners, and there are many preten-
sions to goodness therein which cannot
be admitted. There is not thing SO
offensive as false heart refusing in q
polite manner, to do simple and easy
act of kindness. 1t reminds us of one
lady abusing another in the most cere-
monious style, courtesying with great
dignity. but at the same time, with a
contemptuous sheer upon the lips, and
most reverential madam" upon the
tongue. Most ladies would prefer a
corporal onset. But they know one
another's feelings, and that this mock
civility is the most CALLING and effectual
vengeance they can take. The good
manners of many people are somewhat
of this sort heartleness, clothing itself
in the garb of kindness, and pretend
ing to feel deeply for you, when it
wishes you to Coventry orJerico. Now,
this we call bad manners, and yet men
who can play this part we'll, and a" bow
you out" as they say at court, are sup
posed to be very accomplished, finished
gentlemen. After all, it comes to this {:
that good morals are good manners.
You will find no better standard for
manners than this. But still there are
degrees of goodness there is o more
OF less graceful manner of showing it !;
and the more graceful is better than
the less graceful. The best manners,
therefore, are the more graceful good
morals. We cannot admit any false
hood or heartlessness into the good
manners. These invariably deform
them, however pure they may seem !;
invariably defile them, how beautiful
soever, how graceful soever the air
which they employ, or the dress they
put on.

0sAB Our article in reference to the
great scarcity of game in this state has
caused general movement of sporting
gentlemen throughout the state toward
adopting measures for the preservation
and recuberation of the fascinated
focks. The Newark Journal says in
reference to the subject Several
sporting gentlemen in this city are now
considering the project of importing
quail and rabbits in large numbers from
Ohio and Indiana, where game of the
above species is abundant. The object
is to replenish the woods of Essex coun-
ty and vicinity. 1t is reported by the
farmers in this and other counties that
wild game has been trapped and slaugh-
tered by unprincipled persons out of
season, which coupled with the severe
Winters of the past two years, accounts
for the scarcity of all kinds of game.
1t is expected that the incoming Legis-
lature will so revise the Game laws that
all kinds of game will be better protec-
ted.

THE SIAMESE TWINS.


The London Lancet, good medical
authority, discusses the question of the
separation of the Siamese twins. 1t
says
ARTICLES have been appearing of late
about the above persons and their visit
to Paris, with the object as it has been
asserted. of securing the surgical skill
of NJ. Nelaton in making an artificial
separation of that bond by which ma
ture has joined them together in a way
which no divorce court can overcome.
The subject was good one on which
to hang little sensational writing and
the mysterious nature of the union of
Chang and Eng, the Siamese in ques-
ton, us we'll as the intensely interesting
nature Of tue operation, have been
dwelt upon. We gather, however, from
short and interesting article by DR..
Eve, the late Professor of Surgery in
the University of Nashville, in the
number of the Richmond and Louis
vile Medical Journal for this month,
that the twins have probably no inten-
ton of the kind, and that all the ac-
counts about the physical, moral and
mental unity between them are incor-
rect; the twins are two beings, posses
sing as separate and complete organi-
zatioas as any other two individuals,
the only connection being short car
tilaginous and integumental band COM
mon to both, the severance of which
would, in all probability, be perfectly
harmless.
''It has never been the opinion
among medical men in America or
Europe that the death of one of the
brothers would be instantly followed by
that of the other, or that their separa-
ton was surrounded by any fearful
difficulty, or that the link between them
is a means of perfect physical union by
which sensations or impressions are
conveyed from one to the other. So
far from it, the band is almost insensi-
BILE. and on shipboard they were pulled
about by a rope tied to it. DIR. Eve
tells us that no pulsating vessel has
ever been detected in it, though, un-
doubleday, it is just in the centre of
this cord, made of gristle and skin, and
for about an inch on either side, that
there are vessels and nerves commune
eating from one to the other. Here,
but nowhere else, touch on the space
indicated is felt by both. Precisely
here, and here alone in the band unit
ing them, there is sensation, and no.
thing else whatever common to both.
The decision of the profession thirty
eight years ago, when this case was
first exhibited, was that the igament
was cartilaginous, probably prolonga-
ton of the ensiform cartilage of the
sternum and the chief, if not the only
objection to its division, has been that
the peritoneum might be involved in
the operation. The question of separ-
alton was with themselves or their
guardians, and not with the profession
In 1880 we declared that the case was
more rare than curious. If one of them
of died, it would certainly be the duty
of some one to make the attempt, TAX
ing care to divide the parts nearer the
one deceased"

Our blind, weak wandering and our wrong
Through darkness, doubt and disbelief
We lift our sieIdfaot song.
Though evil triumph fnr the hour,
And creeds shut souls from Heaven above
We know the ages hold Thy power,
And that THY name is Love.
We thank Thee for our trials and tears,
For all the anguish that has been.
what if in the wiser years
We thank Thee f our sin,
And chiefly be Thy bounty blest,
Opitiful and holy One,
For that Thou gavest us Thy best
Dear gift of Thine own Son.
