shipper by J. B. Hunter, G stock raiser, near st.
Louis, was instantly killed at the Stock Yards,

having noticed that, q short distance ahead, q
car on side track stood go close to the train
upon which he was riding as to render it impos-
aible for man to stand between. When he
came to realize his perilous position, it was too
late to avert the danger, and he was knocked
from the side Of the car and under the train.
The wheels Of several cars passed over him, kill
ing him instantly. Justice Miller held en- in

rendered. The friends Of deceased in Kansas

moment when to hesitate might lose victory

are fighting not merely for q change Of rulers,

Grant wins in this contest, he wins, not as the
leader of the Republican party, for that is a
thing Of the past It is the victory Of q per-

pendcnce Of Grant III the next four years. For
if Conklng, Cameron, Morton, Logan, co]fax,
Blaine, and Garfield should venture to oppose
Grant during the next four years, what is there
about them that would prevent their being
kicked out Of the party as Sumner, Greeley,

Our English brethren seem to be doing far
more than re to enable the working classes to
better their condition. They are throwing open
magnificent museums to them are writing pop
ular scientific works for them; are trying to edu-
cate, not only their children, but the men and
the women themselves; and, best Of all, are pro-
noting cooperation by every means in their
power. In this latter, they meet with curious
opposition. The small shop-keepers complain
thatit would destroy their trade. Their feeling
on the subject is so bitter that Mr. Thomas
Hughes advocacy Of cooperation cost him his
seat in Parliament from Lambeth. When the
Civil Service clerks began to form cooperative
associations, the traders, whose business was
interfered with, petitioned the Heads Of the Ser
vice to forbid the formation Of such societies;
30, when the poor curates tried the same thing.
the tradesmen threatened to become Dissenters.
Despite such selfah objections, common sense
is carrying the dny. Little cooperative socie-
ties are springing up everywhere. Cities of the
size of Chicago have them BY the score; and yet

The London Spectator publishes sharp cor
respondence between Mark Twain and John
Camden Hotten. The latter ia London pub
Usher, by birth an American. He shows his ap-
probation Of his native land by republishing all
the good books written On this side Of the Allan
tic. As he steals them outright, paying nothing
to the authors, he has made much money. Mr.
Clemens has an arrangement with Messrs. Rut-
ledge e. Sons, by which they re-publish his
books and pay him copyright. Nevertheless,
Mr. Hotten has taken his last work, has given
it the atrocious title Of " Eye-Openers and
Screamers," and, [worst OF all) has added sew
eral chapters Of shocking nonsense which he
either wrote himself or had some scribbler
write t3r him, and which he now foists upon the
public as part Of the original book. Against
this, Twain naturally protests, but in vain. The
Law, in England and America, justifes pub
Usher in stealing from the authors OF all coun-
tries except his own, and in publishing the fruit
OF his theft in whatever form, condensed or en-
larged, he may prefer.

raey. On the contrary, it gains us none, for the
Democrats who are with us in this movement
honestly accept it for what it claims to be, viz
a forward movement to Liberalism and not as
resurrection Of the past. So the Democratic
leaders, Hendricks, Kerr, Thurman, Buck
alew, schell, and Asa Packer, all regard
it, and 80 also the masses of heretofore Demo-
cratic voters re- gard it. Let sincere, kind, and
friendly effort be made by the 5000 Liberal
Democrats Of Indiana, Ohio, and Pennsylvania,
within the next three weeks, to show their dis
satisfied brethren the folly they commit in CIV
ing their casting votes in these three States to
Grant, Let it be urgent, but without crimina-
ton, and especially without duplicity. Let it be
everywhere conceded that it is Liberal Presi-
dant, and not an old-time Democratic President,
that is to be elected. Such ia the fact, and it is
better to be defeated with the truth than to be
successful with a lie.

Education In France under the Republic and
the Empire are two very different things. n.
Duruy, Napoleon's Minister OF Public Instruc-
ton, WAS q great stickler for uniformity. He
used to boast that, at any moment OF the day,
be could tell what lesson every schoolboy in
France was reciting. His scheme Of instruction
was mere machine. As long as it worked reg
u1arly, he never asked what change
it wrought in the very raw material
submitted to it. NJ. Jules Simon,
Thiers' Minister OF Public instruction has done
away with all this. Nine years ago, when he was
elected to the Corps Legislatif, he said: ssEdu-
cation should be the instruction Of children in
the pleasantest and most thorough way possible u
He is now in position to put his theory into
practice. A rustic achoo1master, when asked
how N. simon's rule compared with TINT OF II.
Duruy, replied: "Well, he sends us Erchmann-
Chatrian's Tales instead OF sTelemachus,' and
tells us to mind our pupils more and politics
1ess." The schoolteachers were among the En-
pire's most faithful political servants.

cannot err, and they will fight it ont On that line
apparently through as many terms az Grant may
purpose to run.
1t is clear, therefore, that the SUCCESS OF this
personal party plants Grant on the platform,
ascrlbed to him by Wendell Phillips, of the
Presidency for life. If any Of his party object,
they are to be turned out. II other parties vote
against him, they are to he o7erslaughed
as they we're in Pennsylvania, by money and
oaAot-5tnting. If it turns out that to-day the
people have no power to change their Adminis-
tration, despite its usurpations and disgraces,
We zee no assurance that they will acquire any
new powers in the future.

SANITARY MATTERS,

A Marked Decrease in the Death Rate over PreYIous
Heeks-The Best Average Since Jurc-Foufteen Ne,s
Cases Of SMALLPOX Repotted-The Slaughter Houses
to be Inspected.
The Board of Health held regular weekly
meeting yesterday afternoon, Inspector Hoard
in tho chair. The report Of the Sanitary Super
intendent WAS submitted. There we're 155
deaths, a decrease Of SO from the preceding
week. Under years OF age, So; males rs; fe-
males, 70. Ferers caused the death OF IS, con-
sumption IS, and commissions Is. The NOR
tality by wards was as follows: First, none
Second, /; Third, 7; Fourth, !; Fifth, 9; Sixth,
q; Seventh, 90; Eighth, i; Ninth, II; Tenth,
4; Eleventh. 6: Twelfth G; Thirteenth, q;
Fourteenth, q; Fifteenth, 80; Sixteenth, II;
Eighteenth, 16; Nineteenth, none; Twentieth,
e. The mean temperature OF the week was 81
degrees. The Superintendent says, in his re-
marks: The
DECREASE N TEE NUMBER OF DEATHS,
compared with the previous week, was very
marked, the total being less than for any weak
since the middle Of June The most marked
feature in the causes of death was the continued
prevalence Of typhoid fever, although the num-
6er OF deaths was no greater than last week.
With the lowering Of temperature, the want OF
drainage was less apparent, and it would be OBJ
served that there was not the usual marked dif-
ference IN the mortality Of the respective wards
SMALLPOX CASES
were reported On Vest Indiana street., Fay
street, Cornell street, North Carpenter street,
West Indiana street, Archer avenue, Mather
street, Van Buren street, South Desplainea
street, Harmon court, Fifth street, Trustee
street,-to the number OF 14,-a decrease from
the preceding week. Several Of the cases re-
ported had just arrived in the city, and, in view
Of the prevalence OF tho disease IN neighborin2
cities, it YVES the duty Of the Board to exercise
the utmost vigilance to prevent its spread
THE SLAUGHTER HOUSES
in end around the city would soon be in opera
tion, and he suggested that the health officer
be instructed to make q weekly report to the
Board Of the condition Of each establishment,
and the disposition Of the offal, in addition to
the report on the dissileries. Such action
vas important, as from present in-
would be largely in excess Of any previous sea-
son, and, unless great care is exercised, much
trouble and injury would result therefrom next
summer. Owing to the improved health Of the
