BOSTON.

We are afraid that Boston is going to the
bad. The Massachusetts State Board of Health
has lust presented report to the Legislature
from which it appears that the Hub of the
Universe is undergoing "a progressive dete-
"rioration in moral and physical cleanliness.
The streets are every dirty" The alleys and
back-ways are soften filthy" The atmos-
phere reeks with the foul OdOrs Of OverflOwing
vaults, fostering offal, putrid household refuse,
simmering fat, and bubbling cauldrons of
nasty bones Unsound provisions are freely
sold. The poor are crowded into the worst
description of tenement houses and cellars. On
one side of Beacon Hill the mortality among
children is more than a third of the whole
number while in the aristocratic district on
the other side it il only one-tenth. Drunken
ness is decreasing in the rural districts, but in
Boston it is more rampant than ever
This il very sad. There never was a place
where legislation fought original sin so hard
as in Boston. There never was place where
the agencies of moral reform had better
chance to work. or social science and all that
sort of thing commanded more respectful con-
sderation. Boston has the Common, and the
Big Elm, and the Radical Club, and the dear
old Epening Transcript and the Handel and
Haydn Society, and yet she will get drunk.
She has a bewildering alluence of sanitary
laws, and yet she gets fouler and fouler every
year She has elaborate enactments for the
regulation of tenement houses, and yet mo
"where can the slightest evidence be seen" of
an attempt to put them into execution. She
threatens awful penalties, we believe, for the
sale of spoiled provisions, and yet high-ilavored
fish, and bob veal, and diseased beef, and milk
that has the foot and mouth disease in it, are
openly dispensed by her cheerful and high
toned market-men, under the very noses OF
the municipal board of health. Boston is a
whted sepulcher-just as nasty as New YORK,
for all its aesthetic pretensiOns.

An early and possibly terrible conflict be-
tween loyal and insurgent citizens of Paris Is
fOreshadOwed in the news which we publish
this morning Battalions of the National
Guards claiming to be loyal to the Govern
ment and having confidence in their officers
have expelled the insurgent Nationals from
various positions in the city, and have occulleo
important streets leading to the race ven
dome and other stronghOlds OF the rebels Inc
lines of the two opposing forces pecoInins
well defined, are nearing each other, ana 'ie
preparations for fight are otherwise con-
cludinr. The insurgents in the Place
Vend6me have received reGnfOrcements III
mon and cannon. but the officers have little
control over the men, and their organization
is consequently defective. The insurgents
have already dismissed one of their principal
officers, and are clearly disappointed with
others The Mobiles who still remain in the
city have demanded arms to fight the lnsllr-
gents; and the troops of the regular army,
disarmed on the surrender of the capital TO
the Germans, have been Incorporated into the
loval National Guards. The Assembly has
called upon each department for one battalion
for the defense of the Government, thus
largely auulIS 10 tHc IOy'i IoiO0 az '0io''iiiO''
Nevertheless the conciliatory policy of Nj.
Theirs has not been abandoned, and he
evinCes no disposition to precipitate
conflict. In this he shows the sagacity
often previously displayed in his long public
career. The insurgents are at halt, and
rebellion can no more afford to stand still than
to turn back. That of Montmartre has con-
quered all of Paris it can hope to control and
only bloody ARRAYS precipitated by the loyal
Guards or by unarncd citizens, as on Wednes-
day last can keep them active, organized, and
united. Delay is their worst enemy, for it gives
occasion for disaffectOn and Generalization to
display themselves. NJ. Theirs doubtless means
to let them alone as long as he can do so with
honor and safety and the conflict which now
seems imminent may through this wise caution
be prevented.

The rcsident has issued a proclamation
warning the South Carolina Ku-Klux to desist
from their outrages and return to their homes
within twenty days. The proclamation is the
usual preliminary to the sending of an army
to the rebelliOus district, aud conveys informa-
ton to that effect. Prompt action will GER
tainly follow at the end of the specified time
if Gov. Scott does not then report the State
as tranquilized. 1t is well known that troops
are already on their way to South Carolina,
and more will be sent if those en- route seem
unable to disperse the Ku-Klux. The great
difficulty, of course, will be to find this guer-
rilla-like enemy, the secrecy of the organiza-
ton being the chief security Of its members ;
and for this very reason Congress should lose no
time in giving to the United States Courts the
power which will enable them to reach where
the army cannot.

The subject of limiting labor in manufactures
to ten hours daily is still under consideration in the
Massachusetts, Legislature. An eleyen-hours system
now prevails in most establishments, and manufac-
turers claim that il is only the last hour which gives
them q margin Of profit Per contra, Mr. Cowley
argued before the Committee that the production Of
mill does not depend upon the number of hours
run, but partly on the condition of the operatives
Eleven hours labor, he claimed, mpeded the natural
growth of children and prematurely debilitated
women He stated also that the Atlantic Mills at
Lawrence now running on the ten-hours' plan, actu-
ally produced more than formerly under the twelve

Now and then, we meet with an incident which
shows that religious feeling is not 30 hopelessly
intolerant as we might suppose it from reading the
so-caled religious newspapers. Thus, the Meth
odst Society in Leomnster Mass has sold its place
of worship and parsonage for the sum of $4,000 to
the Roman Catholics. Yet we dare say that, with
out much search. could find in some Methodist
journal denunciatons of the Roman Church as the
disreputable and scarlet old lady of Babylon. But
business is business and when it comes to the sale
of meeting the vendors act upon the broad
est principles of charity and liberation. We accept
with pleasure this evidence that men and women are
not SO answering in their religious prejudices as
they profess to be.

Among the evils which, it was arrogantly pre-
dcted. would result from emancipation was an
embarrassing migration of colored paupers to the
North but the prophecy has hardly been fulfilled;
for in Boston, point to which the access would
naturally tend, find that there were 2,26l persons
of color in 1861 in 1866 there were 243 inhabitants
of this description in Boston, Dorchester and Rox-
bury united and the late census gives only 1896.
The greater portion of the emancipated have re-
NAMED as we supposed it would in the locality to
which it was attached in the climate which 1t liked
the best, and engaged in the kind of labor with
which it had become familiarand this too, in spite
of the damnable outrages to which it has been sub
jected.

How can we make our farms attractive as to re-

said of the probable good influence of local Libraries,
the cultivation of music with a fair allowance OF

drudgery Unquestionably, the New-England farms
require hard and pretty constant work at certain
seasons but there are several months of comparative
leisure, a rational Improvement of which would rem

There is a tough time coming for poor Brigham
Young. for the Lion Of Utah is to be bearded in his
den. The Rev. Messrs. Mcdonald of Boston, Boole
of New-York, and Inskip Of Baltimore. start next

persons After attending to the regeneration OF
California, the reverend gentlemen will move home

huge tabernacle, and hold an old-fashioned camp
meeting directly under Brgham's patriarchal nose.
1t is said that great many Mormons were formerly
Methodists and are home-sck for the old fold. OuI
own opinion is, that with free preaching in Utah
the Mormon system of cOncubinage, at least, has nj
twenty years life In it.

curious fact that as to Fasting" the majority OF
families will have rather better dinner than usual
on the 9th; and when the Humiliation" is sought
for it will probably require double convex spectacles
aud brilliant lantern TO find it. There Will be a
holiday with much baseball play and other games,
and here and there dances in the evening. When
the Massachusetts forefathers fasted they did so in
grim earnest and went to bed at night hungry, after
six hours in the sanctuary; but modern Massachu-
setts keeps the name and the credit without subject
ing itself to abdominal vaeuity.

Mace and Coburn, both notorious bruisers, are

within the province of the police authorities to bind
both these persons to keep the peace, and not to
leave tho city for the purpose of engaging in the
ring, either in Canada or elsewhere. Wherever they
may contend, this city gets the worst of IT, for here
