Sad Suicide of a Swiss Family in Mex

Mothers Call from Heaven and its
Terrible Responses.
4 correspondent writes from Guadala
lara of triple suicide which was commit
ted in that city on the 18th of January,
and which created the profoundest I'M
preston throughout the province.
The police Of the city received infor-
nation that the house occupied by e
French family, of the name OF tavre;
had not been opened for some time, and
that an insupportable stencil was lssu-
ING from the premises. Officers were
sent to force the doors, and they found
the bodies Of three unfortunates IN a
highly advanced stage of decomposition.
A medical autopsy established the fact
that they had destroyed themselves by
suffocation, closing up the aperatures OF
the house and lighting pan OF charcoal
They had been suffering greatly from
poverty, but had clothed themselves IN
their very best attire-the well-saved
fnerv. the remnants of their former OPP
ulence. The two girls lay in the same
bed. wrapped in each Other arms the
brother was lying dead in another bed
placed at some distance.
The Favre family were OF Swiss origin
The father " no was a wealthy citizen
ofGeneva, lost all his fortune by the
failure Of a watch speculation. He died
shortly afterwards, and his wife and three
children removed to London, and thence
immiqrated to Mexico, wandering as far
as Gaudalaiara, where the mother died.

MERCHANTS POCKETS AND THE PUBLIC
HEALTH.-As an evidence of the extent some
of our merchants regard the public health
when their pecuniary interest is likely to be
affected the case of the bark Fyen clearly
shows. This vessel came direct from port
where the yellow fever is raging. Two of her
crew were attacked with the disease, and
when she arrived in this port she had no bill
of health to exhibit. Messrs. J. L. Phipps &
Co., ana Funk, Edge q Co., who claim, we
presume, to be respectable merchants in this
city, but with residences elsewhere, contend
that she should be allowed to come direct to
the city and discharge her cargo of coffee. 1t
might be little too severe to suppose for q
moment that any Of the above named mer-
chants were actuated by mercenary motives in
making their demand Chat tho Zen should be
relieved from quarantine duty, but there is 4
singular circumstance connected with 1t, and
that is that at present there is good market
Tor coffee and gold Is declining.

Canada-rhe Independence Agitation.

Cuuu0a-Tno 1uuopouoeuco Aeit"sAU"s
The sudden appearance in Canada Of an
evidently strong independence party Is q fact
for which time was ripe. 1t portends not
remote change that will certainly be OF great
consequence to our neighbor, if not to us. So
far as is Immediately apparent, however, the
change will be mostly nominal. Canada was
really cut adrift by the imperial power some
time since; but this fact was scarcely observed
by her people. They were SO accustomed to
believe in their own importance and In the
wealth of the provinces that they had no room
in their minds for the notion that Great Britain
could possibly find her relationship with them
more burden than an advantage, and they
therefore refused to see in the establishment OF
the new Dominion the real significance of that
event. But now that England refuses to de-
fend Canada at the imperial expense; now that
she requires her to provide for her own pro-
tection-things that were implied in the estab-
lishment of the New Dominion-the people
over the border rub their eyes, and discover
that the mother country has abandoned them
and thrust them out on cold and heartless
world. The colonial policy of the present
British government, as given elsewhere in
despatch from Earl Granville, involves the
simple refusal of England to tax an empire to
sustain the police of the North American pro-
vinces. every civilized government it
holds, sis bound to protect the property with
in it's own limits"
In view Of the assumption of such an atti-
tude by the imperial government the Canadians
are startled from their propriety, and when
some Of the more logical of their number re-
feet that this merely means independence,
that word gives direction to the expression Of
all the sentiment of all the disgusted barnacles
They seem to fancy they can take out spite
against the four syllables that horrify their
loyalty that they can resent upon the word
their spleen for the nonchalance with which
they are whistled down the wind. But the
clearness and cogency with which the party Of
independence lays down its views, and the
evident excitement and trepidation into which
its appearance has thrown all the old colonial
place holders and government contractors and
similar Influential classes" tell alike that the
new idea touches the keynote Of the Canadian
future. At this moment the only attitude pos
sible for Canada is that of independence, and
then the only consequence of independence will
be annexation. For this last the other provinces
are ready now; with Nova Scotia in front
annexation is the inevitable future of all those
countries. Only as States in this Union can
their resources be developed or their people
be contented. This is obvious to the men
among them who see clearest, and these men,
with no hatred to British rule, but with COM
mendable love of country, are the foremost
men in the party of independence.

Congress Yesterday.

The Senate yesterday debated at some
length the clause in the Tax and Tariff bill
making the duty on coal fifty cents ton. The
coal remains at its present rate. Other items
of less importance were acted upon during the
evening session, but the bill was not finally dis
posed of. An executive session was held to
dispose of the st. Domingo treaty, but Mr. Nor
rill unexpectedly inflicted long speech on the
perspiring members, which compelled them to
adjourn the matter in an exhausted mood
until to-day, when we are promised certain
disposal Of the treaty.
In the House there was busy time clear
ing away the business on the Speakers table.
A number Of unimportant bills were disposed
Of in this way. The conference report on
General Garield's Currency bill was further
considered and rejected. Another conference
committee was appointed, but the differences
between the Senate and the House on the bill
are probably too wide to be settled by this
means. The currency question may therefore
be considered settled for this session at least.
The Committee on Elections made report
which gives q cheering indication Of
returning sense Of justice that knows not
party, such as was evinced in the very aggra-
waited case Of Mr.. Whittemore. In the Mis-
souri, contested election case between Dyer
(republican), the sitting member, and Switz-
ler, democratic contestant, the committee
reported in favor of Switzler-an instance of
unnartisan rulinv that 40 far has been yerv
unfrequent in that committee. The evidence
must have been very hard indeed against Mr..
Dyer.

The HORSE CAR TAx.-Congress, in deal
ing with the Tariff bill, should abolish the tax
of one-eighth per cent on every passenger
carried on city railroad cars. Why9 Be-
cause it would remove the excuse upon which
the railroad companies charge the passengers
one per cent, thus stealing seven eighths from
the public on the ground that they have to pay
tax to the government. This of course is a
swindle, as everybody knows. Remove the

improvements.

The Now French LOnn-The Aoussmohn
improvements.
A cable despatch informs us that the French
government is negotiating heavy loan, in
order to complete the regeneration of Paris,
inaugurated by Baron Haussmann. 1t is now
some time since Baron Haussmann found it
necessary to resign his position. His reforms
were visible, were telling; bu. they were also
expensive. Haussmann's great offence was
shat he was a costly reformer. Haussmann
knew, and every man who sees Paris knows,
that the result justified the preliminary
expense. We are not sorry to know that
Haussmann's plans are still in favor, and that,
although he is no longer commander r-in-chief
Of the Paris reconstructors, the good work
must 60 on. Paris is now the most beautiful
city in the world. Its beauties will remain a
perpetual memorial of the second empire. As
things now are Paris is the centre of Europe.
1t is more. 1t is in high sense the centre Of
the world. Haussmanns plans carried out,
Paris will, as city, be the crowning of
modern civilization. Lofty and alone,. the
queen Of cities, the eye of the world, it will
stand. Why should not New York come up to
the same high standard? No city ever had
such opportunities. Nature has done all
things for u.s. Why should not art put on the
finish? AS things are the city of New York
is disgrace to modern civilization, not to
speak of the New World. Money is not the
scarce commodity. 1t is brains and taste and
honesty and patriotism. These are the want
ing qualities. As Paris is the queen of Europe
80 should New York become the queen of
America. We await Peter Bismarck Sweeny' 8
return from Europe with some hope. After he
has seen the capitals of Europe we expect to
find some practical proof of taste on the part
of the man who really governs New York city.
Augustus Caesar found Rome brick and left it
marble. Why should not our modern Angus
tus do the same for New York; If he does
not he will lose his chances. But the work
must be done and some one must reap the
glory. We are not sorry for Paris. We are
sorry only for New York.
