Bismarck Running :the Churches.
NEW York, Oct. 21.-A Berlin letter
says that among the blows at religious lib
erty by the Bismarckian government is an
order forbidding professions in several
towns ofthe Rhenish provinces, where since
time immemorial, they ranked foremost
among the favorite customs Of the people,
and where their suppression is sure to ex-
cite great indignation. Such was the ex-
element caused in Prussia by the expul-
sion of the Jesuits that the Catholic arch
bishops of Cologne had instituted against
him hatred and contempt suit by the gov
ernment for daring to write letter ON the
subject. In Holland some mobiles had Of
fered shelter to the exiled German Jesuits,
but the Hague government prohibited them
doing so.

SAN FRANCISCO papers say that the
vineyardists of California viii not grow
rich this year as class. Although the
grape crop is larger than ever before, it is
also less profitable. The high price of
casks, the large stock of wine on hand, the
relatively small amount of capital in the
hands of the wholesale wine merchants
and the oppressive character of the inter-
nal revenue provisions relating to the dis
tillation of brandy, combine to render this
q season of hardship. Many of the vine
yardists viii have to sell fine Mission grapes
for SIP per ton, or little more than half a
cent per pound, and $2s is offered for fine
foreign varieties suitable for wine.

Hon. JOHN A. BINGHAM, Of Ohio, is
reported to have said that Grant should
be elected as often as the Constitution per-
rnits. As there is no constitutional limit,
Mr.. Bingham of course means to have him
President for life. This is clearly the object
of the Radicals, and the one in which the
great danger lies. If the people are 'oheedled
into electing him now, they may be com
pelled to elect him in 1876.

THE new silver dollar, recently struck in
the San Francisco mint seems to be adapt
ed for general circulation in China, where
the want of silver coin Of an acknowledged
standard value has been much felt. II is
worth six per cent more than the old dol
lar, and viii be received in China on the
same terms as the Mexican dollar, which
has hitherto been at premium Of five to
eight per cent. If the Chinese government
should receive the new dollar on the same
terms as the currency Of the empire, there
would be great demand for it, resulting
probably In an increase in the value OF sill
yer.

THE last quarterly return of statistics
prepared and published by the Register
General of England, shows that the death
rate IN London Is POT per Thousand; in
Paris, %; Berlin and Bombay, 81, and in
New York, 81. According to this state
ment, london, Paris, Berlin and Bombay
are all healthier places than New York, and
it is said that the same is true even of
Madras, which lies in the heart of the trop-
les, on the eastern coast of British India,
where the summer temperature is scarcely
endurable by Europeans. As the climate
of New York is healthy, it would seem,
from these facts, that the sanitary laws of

A strange EpfdemIc I'm Canada.

The epidemic which has broken out
among the horses in the Dominion of
Canada is a most singular one. A few days
back we published the news that all the
horses in Toronto were disabled to such an
extent that the street cars were compelled
to cease running. Now we are informed
that the disease has extended through
out the province, and is so severe as
to cause serious interruption to bust
ness. As in Toronto, so also in Montreal
the street cars have ceased to run. Three
hundred horses are sick In the stables of
the car company. Il is not alone in the
cities, however, that the epidemic has
spread, but the agricultural community
has suffered. Farmers, because of its pre-
valence, are unable to bring their grain to
market, and all the ordinary operations of
the farm involving the use of horsepower
are suspended. Now, making all allow
ance for exaggerati0n, this is not pleasant
state of affairs for The States Immediately
across the border. An epidemic that spreads
so rapidly, and that attacks-presuming
that the telegram IS correct-the country
districts in the manner reported, is obvi-
ously not propagatad by contact, but is in
the atmosphere, and carried by it from
place to place. If 1t continues it will not
respect State lines, and we may expect to
hear of it soon at the North. As to what
are the characteristics of this disease, we
are vouchsafed at present no information.
