We are quite weary of recording the inef-
ficiency of our Board of Health i'll the matter
of the fat-boiling nuisances. For more than
year they have talked and negotiated, and adj
vanced, and retreated in this amicable fight,
and all the while the nuisances have remained
practically undisturbed The Board have all
the law and all the facts on their side, but
lack either the nerve or the will to do their
duty. If fat-boilng in the city is a nuisance,
it should be stopped at once. If not, let the
Board say SO, and give up the contest. No
laws are stricter or clearer than those which
regulate matters affecting the public health;
the fault, such as it is, lies with those who
have ito enforce them, and not with the stat
utes. But we begin to despair of any decisive
action in this matter, so far, at least, as the
present officers are concerned.

The young and rampant Sawbones in Phila-
delphia ought, before they oppose the educa-
ton of women as physicians, to bethink them
selves, if they are capable of thinking at all,
that it is no longer a question whether women
are to be doctors or not. That point we as
sumo to be settled. Women are in the profess
sion, and from present appearances are likely
to stay in it, Now the point to be settled is,
whether they shall stay in it with
credit to themselves and safety to the
community, or whether, through imperfect
education, we shall make them, against
their wills, quacks and charlatans. There
are branches of practice, and especially
the capital operations of surgery, which few
women Will care to undertake. Why not allow
them to do good in the rhubarb and ipecac
departments 7-And, besides, to drop even the
semblance of lack of seriousness, women are
sure, in the near future, to be largely employed
as physicians for women in some OF the most
important branches of practice.

Miss Kate Field reserved for her recent lee.


Miss Kate Field reserved for her recent lee
ture in Boston the disclosure of fact of which
Boston has little reason to be proud. When
Miss Field returned from the Adrondacks and
proposed lecturng on her Summer experiences
in that region she hoped also to be able to raise
in Boston the funds for the purchase of the
John Brown Farm. The gentlemen to whom
she presented the case gave abundant prom
Uses, but no greenbacks. Wearied out at last,
she telegraphed to a gentleman in New-York,
asking what could be done here. Within forty
eight hours a dispatch was sent back
announcing that the sum was raised
and at her command. An extract given else
where tells the rest of the story. But we may,
at some risk of offending a modest worker,
who sought no notoriety in the matter, add to
it that the gentleman to whom Miss Field ap-
pealed was Mr.. Isaac H. Bailey.

The Brazilian and Argentine side of the
Paraguayan question, as represented IN our
reports from Washington, is interesting as a
sequel to Minister Washburn's letter. While
the letter assails the personal character of
Lopez, the Brazilian statement attacks him po-
Hticaly. It's essential parts refer to the assist
ance which imperial Brazil gave to Repubh-
canism against Rosas, and the guaranty by
the Allies of the sovereignty and territorial
integrity of Paraguay. Gen. Mcmahon is
again brought under criticism, this time in re-
lation to the last will and testament of Lopez
IA point upon which We would prefer to have
his own comments.

The Nc,C- York Times thinks there can be no
doubt that the honors paid to the remains
"of Mr.. Peabody are in part intended as
" compliment to this country" and hopes that
the differences of opinion which have more or
less alienated our affections from France and
England will not "render us insensible to the
homage now paid to u.s." This may be a COM
Portable theory to hold but we cannot sec the
least foundation for it. Mr.. Peabody's memory
is honorcd because he was great public ben
efactor, and if he had been native Of Great
Britain, or Germany, or Egypt, or Alaska, it
would be honored all the same America shares
in certain way the glory reflected from the
virtues of her sons, but has no claim to the
compliments paid to their personal merits. We
shall make ourselves very absurd if we under
take to acknowledge q homage" which no.
body has the remotest intention of rendering
to us.

A report on teachers salaries, presented by a

Here is no glittering rhetoric to dazzle the
judgment-only facts. From them certain de-
auctions are inevitable. For instance, that the
trainers of our children are less worthy than
the trainers of our horses that those who
labor to teach the ignorant the way in which
they should go do not deserve as much salary
as the policemen who incarcerate them when
they stray that is, that an ounce of prevention
is not better than q pound of cure.

Within the past few days 1T has fallen to us
to announce the death of no less than five
American citizens, all of whom, in their life
time, attained high distinction, while some
enjoyed honOrs above the lot of most men.
The biographers, the RECRUITERS of "reminiscences,
tho repeaters of anecdotes, the thousand gos-
sips whom Death sets to work, have been busy
With their careers. Elsewhere we give some
gleanings from the fruitful field. The records
of their youth, their earlier ambitions, the full
fillment of their first manly duties, the grow
Ing purposes Of their advancing years, and the
achievements of their mature age, may be
profitably contrasted by those who follow with
interest the steps with which men of widely
different habits of thought and action pursue
tho paths of prosperity and hap
piness The heroes of the nations
earlier conflicts. the best of whose
strength and yalor was given to the preserva-
ton of their countIy's liberties, and the men,
DRY of whose deeds will awaken a glow of
gratitude while the land whose struggling in
fancy they protected holds its place upon the
earth; the active and successful contestants
for political power and renown, and the noble
apostle Of Christian ;charity and peace, have
ali Seen stricken, az it would seem, by one
decree of destiny. The lesson of their lives is
an open page to all who choose to read it, and
few can pass in review the successive events of
their several histories without discovering matt

A Valuable Invention.

w. w. johnson, a well known and
worthy mechanic of this city, last year re-
ceived a patent for what is called Picket
Pointer, which We notice is coming into
general use, and ere long will be found in
every carpenter shop in the country. BY
the use of this simple but ingenious in
vention, one man would be able TO point
six thousand palings per day, while by
hand il would be hard work to finish two
hundred and fifty: In making fences its
utility will be duly appreciated by every
carpenter, and we must congratulate our
friend johnson upon his new patent, and
hope that it may be worth a fortune to
him, and prove as it doubtless will, a
great labor.saving machine to fence build
ers generally.
