liant successes and with handsome rewards in
the end to the self-sacrifcing members Of the
committee. And why not. if the laborer is
worthy Of his hire? We only insist upon
thorough cleansing and publication of the city,
in view of the dangers from malarious and
pestilential diseases which threaten us through
the oppressive heats of July and August with
their cholera-breeding accumulations Of green
and decayed fruits and stale fish and vege-
tables
From the report of DR.. Harris. of the Bu-
reau Of Vital Statistics for the Oath instant, it
appears that the city's mortality list from
diarrhoeal diseases for the third week of this
present month was only forty-eight of which
only one was an adult-a worn-out asylum in
mate-and forty-seven were children, and
these chiefly the inmates of dwellings, in the
waterside districts. This is an encouraging
exhibit against one hundred and fifty-four
deaths from diarrheal diseases for the third
week In June, 1872, or as compared with
the one hundred and twenty two deaths in the
same week in 1871 from the same diseases.
DIR. Harris says indeed, that ''no fatal dis
ease having any true resemblance to malig
nant cholera has yet occurred in the city,
but that until short time past every city in
the Union with which the Bureau is in corre-
spondence reported no choleraic diseases;
that New Orleans, the first, and Nashville
next have suffered severely; that in New Or
leans, in low, wet and naturally unhealthy
locality, an efficient sanitary service has been
completely successful in dealing with
causes which in Nashville, in an ele-
waited, dry and salubrious situation,
shave killed enough people to warn
every city and village in our country
to remove all the filthy causes which propa-
gate such disease (the cholera) and cleanse
every source Of defilement 1t is the accu-
mulated filth, then, of city which makes it
subject to q terrible punishment by the
cholera and other epidemics more than the
natural disadvantages Of it's situation and
climate.
The city of New York, from its natural ad-
vantages of situation and climate, should be
the healthiest large city in the world; but for
every thousand of its people its weekly bills
Of mortality are heavier than those of London
or Paris, Liverpool or Berlin, to say nothing
of Philadelphia, Chicago or New Orleans.
Much Of this excess of mortality in New York
is among those thousands of poor, destitute
European emigrants thrown weekly upon this
crowded island; much Of it is due to our over
crowded and disease-breeding tenement
houses; but most Of it results from our filthy
streets and slums, poisonous accumulations,
holes and corners, reeking sewers, waterside
nuisances and scandalous deficiencies of
drainage. These are matters upon which our
city authorities should now combine for ener-
getic action; for otherwise, in view of ap-
preaching dangers, our citizens themselves
may be compelled again to come to the front
in the work Of city reform.

Twoincendiary fires were kindled simultaneously
in the Phoenix Building Saturday evening. One was

Department was summoned by three alarms, and
the fire was confined to the upper part, though
almost the whole OF the great building
was drenched with water. The total loss
may reach 100000; fully covered by insurance.
The building was owned by the heirs OF George A.

one of our own poets has put it,
God who pties man hath shown

And that blessing, in the language Of the
Apostle John is that in a world to come God
shall wipe away all tears from our eyes. No
matter what has caused them to fall, the time
will come when they shall tall no more. And
it was the aim of Rev. DR. Hoyt yesterday to
arouse in his people an enthusiasm for that
land Of fearless eyes and endless joys.
Rev. Mr.. Borel depicted the dual life o.

and John the Seer. He urged his French
hearers to combine both, il they would have
perfect characters and become sincere
Christians.
Rev. Henry Powers entered his plea for
Summer vacation and gave his reasons for its
necessity; but every man who can go to the
country will find other and better reasons to
suit themselves. Summer vacations for
churches and ministers have now become too
well established to need excuses or apologies.
Yesterday was the day set apart in the
Catholic churches for the honor of Saints Peter
and Paul It. therefore, gave Father McNamee
an occasion to dilate upon the stability and
undergraduates of the Church that was
built upon Peter, the rock. 1t also gave
him the opportunity Of falling into the error,
SO natural and common to ministers of the
Gospel, to speak Of the disciples as
illiterate or ignoble fishermen, when the facts
in the case indicate the contrary. A very
small minority Of them, we may infer were
fishermen, and Of these the few who have
written have left evidence enough behind to
prove that they were neither ignoble nor
illiterate.
The occasion was improved by DR.. McGlynn.
also in Brooklyn, to indicate, if not to demon
strate, the necessity Of visible headship in
the Church, since Christ the great Head, has
left the world. And what more natural than
that this head, the Pope, should hold the

binding on all the subjects of the kingdom of
heaven, whether clergy or laity, alike?
