How Not 20 DO ~.

For several weeks the public has been ex-
cited by the existence of an unexampled
nuisance in the very heart OF the city. This
nuisance was created according to the sug-
gestions of the Beard Of Police Commission
ers and with the consent OF the Board of
Health. Its cost was paid without question
by our vigilant Comptroller, whose zeal 10

The complaints Of the people Of Yorkville
and Harlem failed to move the Board Of
Health and only excited the derision OF the
Board Of Police Commissioners.
The newspapers took up the subject, and
Mr. Commissioner Disbecker al once put him
self forward as the champion Of the con-
tractors who had created the nuisance, while
the police surgeons united in a report deny
ing its existence.
This untruthful report could not stand, and
SO, after months sensation, the Police Board
found out that something was wrong.
The Board Of Health made a similar discov-
cry, but apparently without going 70 much
trouble to ascertain the facts in the case
The nuisance arose from dumping garbage
mingled with ashes, or ashes mingled with
garbage, into the Harlem flats.
Under all these circumstances the Board Of
Police Commissioners resolved that hence

Mayor they need have no fear. Purser Green
would also like to visit London, and he would

This is the case apparently with the vast
tract in New Grenada which was ireadfully
shaken by an earthquake on May Is. The
subterranean fires in this inland district had
no previous mouth from which to belch
forth their furious strength, and eight
cities were toppled over and thou
sands OF their inhabitants killed before
the volcano opened on the mountains in
front Of Santiago. BY this awful calamity
it is estimated that thirty-fve thousand
persons were either killed or made home
less, and, although the particulars have not
been learned, the reality is likely TO be more
appalling than the Imagination OF the ruin.
S Juth America has in the last half century
been visited by many dreadful earth
quakes, but with few that compare
with this The fact that the Santander
region is inland adds greatly TO the interest
which scientists take in the event, because of
the new theory that earthquakes are not
caused by immense fires in the centre Of the
earth, but by the chemical action Of wator-a
theory that is supported by the fact that vol
canoes are generally found close to the ocean
bed, as in the cases Of Mounts Hecla, Etna
aud vesuvius. But for the present all scien-
tfic speculations as to the causes Of these
tremendous visitations will be forgotten in
the horror their appalling destruction Of hu-
man life has occasioned.

The south American Earthquake.

Those volcanic countries which are without
ancient volcanic outlets seem to suffer terribly
from earthquakes when those subterranean
forces operate with more than usual violence.
This was the case with Lisbon, when it was
nearly destroyed near The middle Of the last CEN
tury, as compared with the region Of Naples,
which appears to be saved from devastating
earthquakes by the constantly recurring erup-
tions OF Mount Vesuvius, upon whose misty
rim perpetually

easy-going commodious Turks back into Cen
trail Asia. Moreover, the increase Of territory
which Wus given TO Greece by the cession
which Great Britain made OF the Ionian
Islands has turned out dismal speculation
for all parties concerned, and the colony
which was so prosperous few years ago has
sunk into a dcplorable condition as part Of an
independent State Now, what is the position
OF a king of Greece amid all this hopeless
trouble and confusion? He and his connec-
tons are merely marks set up for calumny.
He is obliged to live in an uncomfortable
house in small town without any OF the
amusements OF civilization. He must listen
to demands which he cannot grant, some
whining. some threatening, all day long ana q
part of the night. He must march IN pro-
cession under a blazing sun to be looked at
and insulted whenever called upon to do
So and he must fulfil this hard engagement
for the rest of his life at his peril merely to
be called by the empty name OF King in
official dispatches aud trade advertisements
According to the cable news therefore, he
proposes to abdicate-to utterly abandon the
dreary business and take up his residence at
St Petersburg. If so his friends will surely
congratulate him upon deliyerance from au-
noyances which must be almost too great for
human endurance.
question now arises which the nations Of
Europe will be forced, by the natural course
of events to consider very shortly. What is
the form OF government under which they
henoeforth intend to live? 1t they mean it to
be republican they will have frankly to pro-
claim republics as France did yesterday, and
as Spain did the day before and may do again
tomorrow, for the new King she has chosen
already wants to abdicate. Wise men will no
longer accept kingships. The Duke de Mont
pensier is among the halt dozen gentlemen
who have refused the crown Of Spain.
The Duke of Edinburgh and the Duke
of Cambridge have both declined
to be troubled with Q throne Boys
like King Alfonso and King George
may still be set up by parties Of place hunters
to be knocked down by rival factions after
brief term OF Office; but their parents and
guardians will soon interfere to protect them,
because it is clear that even such well-mean-
ing young men as the ex-hing Amadeo can
do nothing with the shadow of authority
committed to them, and the whole thing is
made up of vexaticn Of spirit The wives and
womenkind even of weak witted princes,
urged by silly ambitions, will prevent them
from running into danger as the Countess de
Chambord lately stopped her husband when
bent on foolish Grand Respectable fami-
lies will not allow their younger or more I'M
reasonable members to ircur loss of character
and other disagreeable consequences, only to
be called by the half-obsolete name of King
for few months; and nations, when they
want to proclaim a monarch, will have Sc
riously to consider how they are to find any
one Of average intelligence and creditable
antecedents willing to accept the situation.

Ocrats established the sub. treasury systeu.
