his father had been broken and new one put
up, and engaged him with his team To 20 to the

by the time the latter had got there, Birk had
broken off the stone where it entered the socket
The teamster soon saw how the mater stood

The latest report of the death rate in the
city indicates the good effect of cooler weather,
the very high figures of the severely hot
season having fallen nearly to the usual
average. Nevertheless the report still shows
that sanitary condition is inferior to that of
great European citics-even London, and
therefore that there is plenty of room for the
amelioration of the life of the poor by means
within the power of the Board of Health.
Comparing only London and this city in regard
TO situation. temperature and the social CON
dtion, one can hardly escape the conclusion
that our death rate ought TO be much the
smaller; and therefore, though we do not
expect, as some persons apparently do, that
this Board can change the laws of life and
avert otherwise necessary mortality, though
we do not expect that it eau do much against
those great causes OF mortalty-the ignorance
and recklessness of the tenement house parents
charged with the care even OF their own chill
dren-yet there is apparently much still to be
done that isfairy within the reach of sanitary
commission. Perhaps we must hasten slowly

regard to the tenement houses this is especially
true. Here in July, with the population
of the city reduced perhaps by two hundred
thousand absentees, the death rate was doubled
and it is in the tenement houses, in the homes
of the very poor mainly, that this increase
takes place. When our laws are not content

Fighting On the Line of the Danube.

The Turkish troops serving in Bulgaria,
/ aided by reinforcements recently despatched
from Constantinople, have met the insurgent
| provincials in battle After q fierce fight,
provoked by an attack of the Bulgarians on
one of their forts, the imperial soldiers were
victorious. They repulsed The rebel agricul-
tursts, and, emerging from their works, pur-
sued them to their shelter in the Balkan noun
tains The Turks sustained heavy loss, our
kilograms from Belgrade reporting two hun
dred of the Sultans soldiers killed.
This occurrence will produce great excite
ment in Constantinople and inlame all the
populations bordering on the Danube, inaugu-
rating, ii may be, military and political
crisis calculated to give vent to the war feeling
which so deeply agitates the Old World. Tur-
key will endeavor, no doubt, to ''crush OUT
the Bulgarian rebellion, but it may be ques-
toned if Russia will stand by with folded
hands and permit the still further sub
jugation of such steadfast adherents of
the Greek Church, particularly as it is alleged
that she has already encouraged them towards
a final struggle for dsenthralment from the
rule of the Porte. Hungary, and consequently
the Austrian government will feel much in
terest in the national fate and future of her
ancient territory, while Moldavia, Wallachia,
Bessarabia and Servia will watch the result
with an impatient anxiety. Austria will now
turn her attention to the Balkan range, and an
Eastern question war in a new shape may
float her flag from the plain Of Sophia to the
border of the Black Sea after involving most
of the great Powers in conflict

Emigration Hcfcrm--A Good Idea,

IL appears from our Berlin correspond cnce
that The Prussian government has decided upon
a most eiectual method cs reforming the emil
grafton system and protecting it's people from
the rapacity and heartlessness of shippers and
ship captains. The plan proposed is to com
pei the shipper of emigronts TO insure the
life of every adult passenger tor two hundred
thalcrs and every child for one hundred
thalers, the amount to 90 to those of the
family who are left behind upon the death of
any passenger during the voyage. This gives
the shipowner direct peculiarly interest in
the health and life of the cmigrant. and is cal
cmated to secure better treatment. good doe
tors and more efficient medicine chest on
board. II is well known that after the anchor
of the emgrant ship is weighed the steerage
passengers are at Che mercy of the captain
and crew, subject sometimes 10 despotisn and
cruelty such as are 20 be found under no
other circumstances Therefore we look upon
this German suggestion as a good idea and a
very prominent reform in the present much
abused system OF emigration We hope that
il will be carried out. not alone in North Ger
many, but in every European county.

city and its surroundings seem TO he holding
sort of revival in opposition to the religious
revival of Water street, and still the question
recurs, what are our city authorities about ?

ing the city for time uuder some special
