New York city is becoming thoroughly alarmed
the deplorable sanitary condition of its streets
and byways, and is calling loudly for the elm
inatiOn of the pestilent civilizations arising in
different portions of the city from all kinds of
Tottenness- The World calls attention to the
docks as whited sepulchres and repositories not
only for the contents of thousands of sewers,
but for dead animals, offal from slaughter
houses, refuse from the gas works, scatterings
from the dumping docks, and even human
bodies. This l. but one count in the indictment
against the health authorities. Gas-works,
slsughter-houses, cattle-pens, fat-trylng houses
and bone-burning establishments are in opera
ton in thickly-settled portions of the city, and
adding to this filthy streets and alleys, and the
World thinks New York is ripe for plague and
pestilence. Strange to say, the city authorities
are apathetic, and are making no adequate
efforts to cleanse the city.

In the trial Of Or. West at Dover, delaware,
for the murder of a colored man, large num-
her Of witnesses were produced to testify as to
the prisoners insanity, that being the plea of
the defence although DIR. West denies that he
was or is insane, and says he killed the colored
man in self defence. In rebuttal the state
called over twenty of the most prominent and
intelligent men in the community who testified
TO their belief in Vests sanity. Under the cir
cumstances it will therefore remain with the
jury to decide the question of the prisoners
mental condition at the time he committed the
murder. 1t is pretty safe to predict that he will
be acquitted on the g1pund of insanity.

IL was reserved for the devilish brutes who,
under the name of Oregon Volunteers, butch
cred the captive MOdocs, to show that it is
possible for white men, having the boasted adj
ysntages Of civilization and Christian infiu-
ences, to rival and even surpass the ignorant
savage in deeds Of treachery and cold -blooded
murder. 1t is fortunate for the good name of
the American people that, under the decision
Of the Attorney General, the other captive
Modocs viii be tried by q military court as it is
evident that in the hands of the white savages
OF Oregon they would not have had the faintest
semblance Of q trial by law.

NV that the Territorial Legislature is con-
eii,r:ns some amendments and notifications Of
The health laws of the District, we think il q
fitting time TO throw out the suggestion that we
cannot perhaps do better in such matters, than
to follow far as practicable the lead Of gov
ernments and states in which vital statistics and
hygiene, have been for years the subject of
careful study. IL strikes Us that in the proposed
act there are number of incongruities, which
If il is desirable to have the law operating or
pass d, ought TO be avoided; such sections as
propose to interfere with the established
practice and duties of the coroner. And, also;
the section that groups together the practisi ing
physicians, the midwIves, the undertakes and
the keepers of saIitariums, making them ap-
Iendages to the Board of Health.
1t is a noticeable fact, that in the states
where public health and vital statistics are
most efficiently studied, the duties of registra-
trion and the duties of health officers are per-
formed by different persons, and are separate
and distinct departments. Great Britain has
her registrar general. who publishes annually q
most valuable report, embracing facts relating
to every class of the population She has also
health officer, who holds confidential relation
to the Privy council, and who makes reports
from time to time. He also organizes commits
sions of experts to report on special diseases
that may appear or prevail in any part of the
Kingdom, their causes, and the best mode OF
preventing their recurrence.
Massachusetts and Rhode Island, the states
holding the lead in health matters in the United
States, have each a registration officer separate
and distinct from that of the health officer. The
other states that occur to us now that have state
boards of health are California, Louisiana, Min
nesOta, Michigan, and Virginia. Many reasons
will suggest themselves to those rejecting upon
the subject, why il would be best not to COM
plicate the duties Of the board of health with
that of registration. A record of the number of
births, deaths, marriages, and other statistical
data desirable, should, of course, be collected
and their preservation be confided to the care
OF the registrar.
