Since the time of Solomon Grundy, who
was born on Sunday and died on Monday. we
have not heard of any gentleman so conse-
quential and startling as Solomon Andrews,
who signs himself ''Health Officer at Perth
Amboy" This person wants ever 80 much
information; he wants to be told so many
things that it is astonishing how little he must
know. He wants to be informed why the
Health Officer of this port boards ships in the
lower bay. Poor Solomon-so old, and he
never yet heard Of the yellow fever! He
wants to know, also, by what authority that
illustrious blunderbuss who calls himself the
Health Officer of Brooklyn ventures to examine
any samples of coffee that he, Solomon of
Perth Amboy, has declared to be perfectly
healthy. Well, this thing puzzles us also.
Justly celebrated as we are for the wide range
and accurate character of our knowledge.
Can anybody tell how any ship came to
Brooklyn by way of the port of Perth Amboy
Brooklyn is part of the port of New York, and
ships landing cargo there are supposed to
have passed through the hands of the Health
Officer of this port. What, then, has Solomon
of Perth Amboy to do with any Of them?

ANOTHER MURDER CASE has been disposed
of in manner fully as satisfactory as hang
ing. A bully named Farrell, whose dangerous
character is proven by the crowd that assem-
bled in advocacy Of the prosecution at the
inquest yesterday, was killed while beating,
with ten or twelve others, an honest, sober
fireman named Hamilton. The jury promptly
rendered verdict of justifable shooting, and
Hamilton was discharged. A disorderly crowd
of Farrell's friends were in the court room
trying to influence the jury by their threat
ening demonstrations, and 1t is probable they
succeeded only in inducing the jury to render
their verdict more promptly than 1t might
otherwise have been rendered. If killing is
to be done, such bullies as Farrell are the best
subjects upon whom to do 1t, and If jury il
| to be Influenced, such influence as these disor-
derly gangs exercised Is the most salutary ant
| equitable.

THE POSITION OF THE UNITED STATES IN
THE WAR.-According to Mr.. Fish our posi-
ton In the war that threatens to unsettle the
order Of the world is that of a suppliant to
one of the Powers for small favor, which,
of course, as 1t was ridiculous thing TO ask,
that Power could only refuse. Mr. Fish,
speaking on behalf Of the government and
people of the United States, puts them on their
knees to beg from France that, out Of consid-
Grafton for their necessities, she may be
pleased to spare the North German line of
steamers, that the American people and gov
ernment 'depend" upon for postal communi-
cation with Europe. We doubt if ever before
great people was made quite SO contemplate
as this.

THE HERALD IN LoNDoN.-In another place
in this days HERALD will be found most
readable article from the London BelgrGota.
Its views of New York and New York life are
spicy and suggestive. The New YORK
HERALD is singled out as special feature
of the great metropolis of the Western Con-
tinent. Our Sunday and Monday issues are
marvellous in the eyes Of the people Of the
modern Babylon. The HERALD, in the great
role as a preacher Of righteousness, is some
thing so startlingly novel that they cannot
comprehend it. Its 'struly cosmical or plane
tary sweep and character" ore better under
stood here. It is gratifying to know that we
have not labored in vain. We are not without
the hope that the merits Of the HERALD will
yet be more fully recognized even in London.

yond any war in all the past-should be a
possibility. Those who still indulge the fond
hope that better times are in store for hu-
manity may gather some consolation from
the thought that good sometimes grows out
of evil. 1t is not impossible that out Of this
chaos another cosmos may come, and that
through the darkness and the tempest the
morning star may be seen-that morning star
which shall never again go down upon the
worlds sorrows. So may it be! Meanwhile
we must regret that ambition and bad pas
sions rule.

THE AMERICAN BoNAPARTE, Jerome Napo-
leon, grandson Of the old jerome Napoleon
and Madame Patterson Bonaparte, left our
shores yesterday in the steamship Lafayette
for France, and for the purpose of joining the
French army of the Rhine. An American
soldier, educated at West Point he has done
some active service in the army Of the United
States; but as French soldier he distin-
gushed himself in the Crimean and Italian
wars. Nor is there any telling to what high
distinction he may rise in the vicissitudes
likely to attend this European war.

BOGUS NEWS IN WALL STREET. There is
nothing very novel in the caption but yet the
gold brokers have seen fit to appoint special
dollars if necessary, in tracing out the authors
of bogus kilograms, recently circulated in Wall
street, purporting to give the quotations ol
American securities in London. The commit
tee will not have to journey far to find those
whom they are in quest of. The authors Of
the bogus dispatches are the INSCRIPTIONS

The GRAND LAMA OF THTBET THE
Pope OF THE EAsr.-The Grand
Lama of Thibet, the Pope of the East,
obtains a grand chance in the pages
claration of Papal infallibility in Rome comes
theLama in his mysteries, his supreme epis-
copacy, his infallibilty and his hereditary
claim of being nearer to heaven than other
men-a visible interpreter of the Divine will.
He is the Pope of the East He rules over
Red and Yellow Churches, and has reformers
and non-progresssts among his followers
This expose Of the religious system of the Grand
Lama of Thibet is very opportune, and will at
tract great attention in the churches.

The NORTH CAROLINA DIFFICULTIES. The
arbitrament of the law has finally been
demanded and conceded in relation to the
anarchical state of affairs in North Carolina.
The powerful writ Of habeas corpus has been
called into play, and we had reason to expect
that we should get the true, unvarnished story
of the whole proceedings; but 1t would seem
that even the judge was blind as well as
justice, for he has rendered an opinion to the
effect that Colonel Kinks reasons for not obey
ing the writ of habeas corpus were suficient,
but that the writ must be obeyed by some
other man. He has, therefore, served the
writ upon the Marshal Of the Supreme Court
of the State, and, as he is not a militia officer,
1t is probable he will obey 1t.

OUR SPECIAL FASHIONS letter from Paris tells
of summer, the country, rural life and rustic
toilets. The writer dates away from the French
metropolis, at Chamettes, near Tours, and sup
plies quite refreshing communication, describ-
ing the living beauties who inhabit old cha
teaux, their style Of dress and mode of life.
The letter is quite agreeable, both in its
variety Of feature and gossip. The sub tegi-
mine fagi vindicates itself in its natural beauty
and well bred ease over the glitter, the whirl,
and the heartlessness of the monde Of Paris.

A FUNNY CASE IN JERsEY.-Some time
ago aman was killed by railway train over
in Jersey-an occurrence so common that it
has come to be regarded as impertinent for
any one to take notice Of it, But the Coroner,
who perceived o fee in the facts, disregarded
the railway etiquette and started an inquiry.
He went to the conductors, engineers, superin-
tendents, everybody, and they individually
and collectively told him to 60 to Jericho.
The man was dead, and what was the use Of
making fuss ? But the Coroner kept at it,
and is at it still, and at last has succeeded,
after making many arrests, in finding out the
name of the conductor of the train. This,
however, is not very near to verdict; but
the Coroner will keep on. Would not this
Jersey plan Of buryng men without verdicts
apply in this city even better than the plan
in use of finding verdicts Of self-defence?

MOVEMENTS OF SENATOR FENToN.
jumping into the water and saving little
child from drowning the other day at Babylon,
on Long Island, Senator Fenton came up to
the city; thence, on Friday afternoon, by the
steamer Plymouth Rock Collector Murphy on
board, too), he went down to Long Branch,
and returned by the early Sandy Hook train
Saturday morning 1t was supposed that his
mission to ''the Branch" was to ''see" General
Grant and Murphy, and talk it all over with
them about the Custom House business /; but we
understand that the Senator did not 60 down
for this purpose, and did not see Grant or
Murphy, and did not and does not want to see
them or either of them. From this we appre-
bend that the Senator, like Sempronius, sis
still for war, though we think his true course
is to make it up with General Grant and with
Murphy, and to bury the hatchet and smoke
