"Good old Times -

Editor RattJand Herald d: - In TIE
HERALD of last week | saw and read an
editorial under the above head, and was
much interested in the same. 1t COM
menced with a criticism upon the Yer
mont Chronicle in its comparisons of the
old times with the present, and it SEEM
ed to me that THE HERALDs criticisms
were correct and just.
know very we'll there are not a few
who insist that our public men are be-
low the standard of those in Washing
tons time, and that the world is grow
ing more wicked every day. l have
seen many newspaper articles within the
last six months that directly urge this as
the truth. They cite as evidence to sus-
tain their opinions the operations of the
late New York Tammany Ring, the
Erie railroad swindlers, the large num-
Der Of cases in which judicial and other
officers have been bribcd, or otherwise
undulv influenced, the recent Credit
! Mnbilier developments, and the large
amount, and, as it is claimed, great in
crrasa ri crimes within recent date.
1t is tru' that an array of facts like
the foregoing taken from the history of
our country in the last ten years may be
presented, which i'll themselves would
show an ugly feature. But those facts
do not comprise all the history of the
country in that time, only small por-
ton of it, and believe that no well in
| formed man, who knows substantially
our whole history, can come to any 9TH
err conclusion than this: That from our
organization as a republican govern
ment until now, we have been progress
! ing in all that is essential to the prosper
ity and well being of the race, and never
| so rapidly as during the last ten years.
/ Men are not perfect now, nor will they
by so long as human nature is what it
is; but | believe as much as I believe
| that | have existence, that the world is
! growing better, and that the patriot, the
philauthropist and the christian haN
abundant reason to rejoice in view uf
| the progress made.
might be obliged to concede that
this evil of plumber and fraudulent pee
ulation, which we have recently hrarl
so much about, was for time on the
increase; think it was. The building
of railroads, which commenced il this
country hardly forty years ago, seams t.
have originated a new system Of linal
ceering, which | will admit is fraa.,ht
with danger, and should, and | have no
doubt will, have an end at no distant
day. The building of portion of the
Union Pacific railroad by the Credit Mo
bilier, or rather the fraudulent schemes
of Cakes Ames and his associates in that
affair, was by no means the first thing
of the kind in this country. Govern
ments had not often before been de-
frauded, but the people had to greater
or less extent in nearly all the railroads
that had been built in the United States.
hardly railroad had been built when.
to begin with, it had sound financial
basis. Perhaps one-half, often not a
third OF the capital stock would be
taken, but the road was built in some
way. The people ON the line wanted

immense crowd which thronged the ay-
enue from encroaching on the line OF
march of the procession. Altogether,
the civic and military organizations
numbered at least 10000, and made an
imposing display Nearly every organi-
cation in the march was accompanied
by an effective brass band, and the route
twas enliyened by excellent music for
space Of nearly two miles in length,
causing the spectators for time to for
get the intensely nipping atmosphere
and the clouds of dust driven by the
wind against their faces. AS the pro-
cession turned into the avenue from FIT
teenth street, the crowds of spectators
crowded along the sidewalks from the
intersecting streets, and in a moment
the great thoroughfare of Washington
was alive with at least fifty thousand
struggling people, who, Notwithstanding
the exciting nature of the occasion, pre-
served excellent order. AS the various
organizations drew near the Capitol, the
crowd thickened until the entire vicinity
of the Capitol grounds was filled with
the multitude. The appearance of the
military organizations, their excellent
drill and snowy uniforms, was the theme
of admiring comment on all hands. This
was particularly the case in reference to
the Sumner Guard, Albany Burgesses
| Corps, United States Marines of this
! city, cadets from West Point and An
napolis, the artillery organizations from
Forts Monroe and McHenry, Philadel-
phia and Baltimore volunteers, and the
| local battalions. The civic associations
also made a good display, though their
numbers were considerably diminished
| by the intense cold Prominent in the
procession and attracting universal at
| tentiOn was an omnibus decorated with
banners containg number of veterans
of the Mexican war, following them a
procession bearing the battered flags of
many of the great battles of the country.
This part of the procession was loudly
and continually cheered. The buildings
! along Pennsylvania avenue, from the
White House to the Capitol, presented
| one unbrokcn line of decOrs tions, sur
| passing in extent, beauty and variety
! anything of the kind ever before attempt
! ed here. The headquarters of the Hart
ranft club, the Metropolitan club anC
| the Cameron club at the Washington
| House were most deliberately adorned
with flags, streamers, lanterns and othel
! festive insignia. Owing to the exceed
ing cold weather nearly all the stands
erected along the line of march for bet
ter observing the procession were aban
doned. Many persons who had been a
great expense in the provision of elevat
ed seats at conspicuous points, on specu
lation, were, therefore, forced to be con
tent with greatly diminished receipts
During the continuance of the Inaugural
ceremonies the great mass of spectator
behaved in a most orderly manner. Thu
Treasury was filled with lady and gentle
men officials employed in that depart
ment, and others to whom tickets OF ad
mission had been issued Porticos OF
Fifteenth street, directly facing the lin,
of march as the procession turned int
Pennsylvania avenue, offered eXcellen
views and were filled with animated ant
| cOntented crowds.

THE CABINET. ALI the members of Cab
met rendered their designations, Tuesday
and it is expected that all, including Sec
rotary Boutwell,, will be renominated to
the Senate for confirmation. Cabinet
gossip is almost entirely lacking, and
there is no expectation in any quarter Of
any change. Oh1ce-seellers are also most
unaccountably scarce, and it is doubtful
if a President ever was inaugurated
with less of speculation and uncertainty
concerning the initial acts of the new adj
ministration. Members of Congress are
already departing, and by the end of the
week the greater part will have left the
capital.

THE BALLoT-Box IN PENNsYLyANLIA.-
The honest voters of the Keystone otate
have been troubled, for many years,
with wicked persons who would h a
on putting more votes into the ballot-p0&
ON election days than they are properly
entitled to. The constitutional conveh,
ton is trying to remedy the eVii' anu
various propositions have been brought
up for that purpose. One was, to com
nel each elector in any city, borough or
town. containing population OF at least
SO. 900 inhabitants, to write his name on
his ballot, or have it written thereon by
another citizen of the district, not an
election officer. This was rejected, on
account of what one of the newspapers
calls ''the almost superstitious venera-
ton entertained by some of the members
for the secret ballot" Another sugges-,
ton, apparently made in spirit OF
pleasantly, was that ''every elector
should have his photograph placed upon
the outside of the ticket voted, which
we are informed, was about to be adopt
ed when it was withdrawn.

CAUSES OF TYPHOID FEvER.-In re-
cent lecture on typhoid fever, at Guys
Hospital, Sir William Gull remarked
that $50 years ago one of the kings of
England died of ague, but now by i'm
proved agriculture and drainage the dis
ease had become rare, and certainly very
few of it. Typhoid fever, he asserts,
as preventible as ague, and $50 years
hence deaths from it will be as rare.
The disease is caused by a virus of ma
ture, which may get into the healthy
body, increase in it, and destroy it. 1t
is an accidental condition, and not one
ct the ordinary processes of nature. The
origin of the disease is somehow or other
connected with drainage; it has, there
fore, been called the filth fevor, and to
get rid of the filth is to get rid of the
fever. This was illustrated in the case
Of the Milbank prison, where typhoid
and dysentry were once established, but
both almost wholly disappeared when
the water supply was changed and eff
fcient drainage provided In his closing
remarks on the treatment of the disease,
tie lecturer said that no one can an
proach case of typhoid fever without
mylng some attention to hygiene. This
IL claimed was of the greatest import
ahce, and with it he would prefer to
carry any one through the disease by
vines and soups and fresh air, rather
than by the use of drugs.

CHECK LIsT.-We trust that when we
have another election in this town, the
selectmen will see to it that more atten-
ton is paid to the making up of the vot-
ing check list. Many persons whose
names were on it at the last election,
who have voted for years in town and
had good reasons for supposing that their
names would be on the list at the cleo
ton yesterday, found that their names
had been omitted, and were consequent
~ dcbarred from voting. This was
caused by the carelessness of the Courier
printers, or want of care on the part of
the selectmen This matter should be
more closely attended to hereafter, as
there was just cause for much complaint
