Sermon by the Rev. Father Daily, s. J.-
Haydn's Second Mass.
Rev. Father DAILY, s. j., preached at the gospel OF
high mass yesterday. on the two great command
ments Of the new law, Thou shalt love the Lord
thy God with thy whole heart and with thy whole
soul, and thy neigEbor IS thvsef" The whole code
Of the teachings of the Redeemer may be reduced
to these two grand IDEAS the love OF God and our
neighbor. We should make self-examnation and
o constant study OF every thought, word and action
to find out whether we are in accord with these
precepts. In regard to Gods love towards men 1t
the great price he paid for our redemption.
Actions must accompany protestations OF our love
Tor God. There Is no use In pretending to such
love If our conduct does not show conformity
with the divine law. The Creator says explicitly,
"Whoever keepeth My commandments, ioveth
Me-" The eloquent preacher then proceeded to
show that the love OF our neighbOr Is necessary
consequence to the love OF God, and exhOrted his
hearers to avoid everything tnat tends towards
the injury or disparagement OF our fellow man.
The mass sung by the choir was Haydns Second
Mass which, with the brilliant organ playing OfDr.
William Berge and the cOckwork precision with
which the well-traned choir sung the trying music
was delightful treat The 'Qu tOls,"a baritone
solo. In the absence OF Signor Bacell was admir-
ably rendered by the tenor, Slgnor TamarO. At the
vespers IN the afternoon Miss Mary Werneke sung
the Italian school, and showed remarkable pro-
gress in both volume OF voice and intensity Of ex-
preston. Tamaro made his own "Ave Verum"
gem OF the occasion. Berge's Second Mass will be
given next Sunday, and Cherubini's Messe Sole

The Rev. Mr.. Streebie, one OF the secretaries of
the American Missionary Society. preached yester-
day morning to a small congregation at Plymouth
church. Mr.. Streebie selected for his text the last
clause OF the thrtyfrst verse OF the sixty-eighrh
Psalm-"Ethiopia shall soon stretch out her hands
unto Cod" In reference to Africa he said when-
ever that Continent Is converted Providence
will have much to do with that or
ganizatlon. God is placing on the Continent
OF America the means OF Outstanding the
Africans. Ny subject will be the destination Of
the African races and the relation of America
thereto The civilizations OF the world, their char
acter and their history, were then rapidly
sSetched by the preacher. 1t is the destination of
the African races to represent that civilization
which Will represent the amiability and midness

In Paris there is law that the man on
whose premises fire breaks out can receive
no insurance, while his neishbor can, and
i t is said that Paris is freer from fires than
any other large city. Perhaps if some of
our builders, who SO recklessly set up tin
der boxes in which to consume poor girls
and helpless beasts, were unable to collect
q cent of insurance when the inevitable fire
comes, they would build more carefully
and guard more securely. If our railroad
men, says the New York Tribune, were
held strictly responsible for every life they
take into their charge, instead of being let
off with the accustomed censure,o we
should hear less frequently of telescoped
cars and broken bridges. So long as
wholesale murder is as free from punish
ment as at present, there is no .spot where
man can be safe.

DURING the past year, within the limits
of the United States, Z, AIS miles of railroad
have been completed, and 6,514 miles put
under construction, making a total of
10 1922 miles on which work has been
done. In no one year from 1880, when
the first stretch of twenty-three miles
of the Baltimore and Ohio road was
opened, down to 1871, in which year
7,453 miles of track were completed, has
so great an advance been made as in the
year just ended, and from present appear
ance the increase in all the States except
Virginia will be even greater in the year
just begun. But building railroads in Vir-
ginia.. is snatching "sacred heritages |"
from the people, and the only two sensible
things for the legislature to do is, to encour-
age cani-culture by offering bounty for
the greatest number OF bull-pups any one
man can raise, and to advance expensive
transportation by excluding all railroad
capital from the State in future. Virginia
would then be the "paradise ofAeas" indeed.
For everybody that wasn't eaten up by
feas and the little railroad monopoly rings,
would flee the State in good earnest.

THE R1cHMoND CoLLECToRsHrP.

We much regret that there should be
any contest over the confirmation of DIR.
Mills as Collector of Customs at Rich
mond. His nomination has been received
with degree Of general favor, rarely
extended to any one. DIR. Mills is
universally respected, and commands the
confidence and esteem Of men OF all par
ties, He did not seek the office; but
was selected as q fitting representative OF
the Administration and of the Republican
party. The opposition to his confirmation
comes from Senator Lewis and John Am
bier Smith. These gentlemen called upon
the President yesterday, as it is under
stood, to induce him to withdraw the name
of DR.. Mills. Messrs. Platt, Clements,
Hill and others called to recommend DR..
Mills. The President declined to withdraw
the name. He adheres to the conviction
that the nomination is proper one, and that
a change was necessary at the time when
it was made.
We do not know upon what grounds the
confirmation Of DR.. Mills is opposed. We
learn that it is noG from any distrust as to
his competency but rather upon the ground
that Mr. Smith claims the right to name
the Federal officers in his district, or at
least portion of them. This claim is not
likely to be recognized to any great extent
either here or elsewhere. The new order
of things under the civil service takes from
the Congressman all control of Federal
appointments, and makes his recommended
ton little more weighty than that of
other prominent Republicans. This may be
very unpleasant to ournewly elected men,
bers, who have always contemplated the
dspensation Of places as among the legiti-
mate rights Of the Representatives. But
that day has passed, we believe, forever,
and while we are no admirer of the Civil
Service Reform, we certainly do not want
to see Congressman degrade his high po-
sition to mere dispenser Of patronage.
Senator Lewis has certainly legal right to
voice in the matter. but we trust he will
not use his power against the views Of the
great body of the party here. We have
no doubt Of the ultimate confirmation o.
DR.. Mills.

THE smallpox still increases its ravages

THE smallpox still increases its ravages
in Washington. There were fifteen new
cases reported yesterday and many people
are avoiding the street cars and public
places. The fatality comes principally from
neglect. With prompt and intelligent care
the disease is very littlel more dangerous
than measles. The patient must eat moth
ing but simple food, be kept warm and
quiet, and the pustules covered from the
air with some antiseptic mixture, as char
coal and salt. There is danger Of conta-
gion from the time the disease is fairly de-
veloped till all odor ceases. We quote
from the Washington Star some items
from the board of health:
DOMESTIC ANIMALS AS DIssEMINA-
TORS OF SMALLPOX.
The secretary read communication
from "a citizen" respectfully suggesting
''that where there are dogs and cats con-

THE SMALLPOX SERVICE.
DR.. Verdi reported that he had given
orders for the building of extension wings
to the smallpox hospital, which are now in
progress of erection by the contractors
Messrs. Smith & Co., and that they will
be ready to occupy by Saturday. His
action was approved.
The health officer reported that he hat
ordered the officer whose duty it is to bury
the dead from smallpox to make charges
to such families as desired their friends in
tered in private burial grounds at the SAINT
rates as were made by undertakers. This
action was approved. Also, that he hat
directed the same officer to surround al
bodies with carbonate of lime, or in lieu o
it to use double coffin as precautionar,
measure. Considerable discussion follow
ed this announcement, Messrs. Langston
Marbury, and Cox opposing it. DR.. Co.
said he was opposed to forcing citizens t
scatter lime dust about their decease'
friends; he thought some other suitabl
disinfectant should be used instead. No
thing really was necessary but an ordinar,
coffin to isolate the contagion. Mr.. Mar
bury said it was not right to force poo
people to pay for double coffin, as man
of them were not able to pay for a singl
one. Mr.. Langston agreed with both MI
Marbury and DIR. Cox. The action of th
health officer was disapproved.

MANY of our readers have doubtless
heard that six thousand men are employed
on the buildings for the great Vienna Elk
position. This is vast number, but it
may serve to show why there are so many,
if we explain one of their ways of work
ing. They have to drive piles in some
places to get good foundation. In this part
of the world we do that with machine,
driven either by steam or by gunpowder.
But in Vienna they employ thirty men and
thirty ropes to raise the weight or hammer
to the top of the framework, from which il
falls on the head Of the pile. By this in
genious arrangement the thirty men are
able to do in three hours about as much
work as an American "pile driver" would
do in ten minutes.
