into the free afr by Foster, Phelps, Booth and
others. The President Of tho Republican Senate
and tho Speaker of the Republican House have
given distinct warning that while they retain
their party standing they retain also their indi-
yidual eonscences. There are certain short
sighted Democrats who pretend that all
this emancipating tendency of tho hour is
inuring to their benefit, that this general cur
rent is grinding their little grist 1t is not
worth while to combat such puerile delusion.
A young Democratic Congressman from the
West said the other day, cit seemed as If the
"whole vote was floating. i had to work as
"hard for Democratic votes as l did for
Republican and Granger" The tide this year
certainly sets in the direction Of Democratic
successes. But next Autumn and next Spring
we expect to hear frequently of the lnde-
pendent Voter.

THE CANAL INVESTIGATION.

The Governors Commission for the invcsti
Cation of the Canal Frauds is now ready to
begin its work, and we have every reason to
expect results from it which we are forbidden
to hope for from the Joint Committee Of the
Legislature. Gov. Tilden is in savage earnest.
The people of New York know him of old as
q man of tenacious purpose and rare talent
for investigation. 1t is morally certain that
with the help of the able gentlemen
he has selected he will succeed in
uncovering the great system of robbery
and corruption, and that he will never
relax his pursuit while fragment of the Ring
holds together. We presume the lobby and the
Legislature have no longer much power to OBJ
struct the inquiry. There was brief time
when the present SUCCESS Of the Governors
though not its final result-de-
pended in a great degree upon the action of
the Senate and Assembly, but that critical
time has passed, and with or without the favor
of the two Houses the prosecution of the thieves
now goes on to the end.
The consideration of this evident fact will
perhaps show q certain class of politicians at
Albany and elsewhere what is tho prudent
course for them to pursue. The Average Legis-
lator is neither q patriot nor knavo; he is a
man who would not steal, and yet would not

EVERYDAY SALVATION.

The Mutual Life Insurance Company Of
this city, with what may at first sight ap-
pear benevolent suicidal policy, is now dis
tributng gratuitOusly two little pamphlets, one
containing plain directions for accidents, enler-
gencies, and poisons, and the other short
treatise on the care Of the sick, prepared and
published by the Howard Hospital of Philadel-
phia. We should be glad if we could cOndense
into q column for our readers the knowledge
contained in these two little volumes, any part
of which may be essential to the saving Of
life. American men, and still moro American
women, have a mania for dabbling III medical
practice they delight in reading up on
whatever disease they have, or imagine they
have talk learnedly of gastrtis or neurosis,
to the confusion of medical men, and are will
ing to try the milk or magnetic OF movement
cure, or any other, provided it is a new one. But
not one in thousand prepares himself for the
emergencies which arise every day in large
city-the accidents from poison, sunstrOke,
drowning, fire or falls, when medical aid Is
not probably attainable and when little
knowledge, GOODNESS and common sense In o
single bystander would save the life OF the
victim. In later years The TRIBUNE and
part in urging this necessary information upon
the public, publishing each year rules of
hygiene furnished by eminent medical men,
directions as to the treatment of per-
sons supposed to be drowned, or vic
tins of sunstrOke in the hot season,
or the proper care of infants while teething,
etc. But such instruction, we confess, is
apparently received with slight attention, as is
natural among o people who support more
drug shops than any other, but who have q
settled aversion to fresh air and water. "If
it had been some great thing" said his
servants to Naaman, "would'st thou not have
"done it How much more then when the
prophet said, Wash, and he clean"
We can see no reason why this simple practical
knowledge is not given in our schools. If
education is meant to fit our boys and girls TO
be useful citizens, wives and mothers, it surely
is as essential to that end that they should
know the simple common antidOtes to simple
common posons, tho prevention of diseases
which belong to climate in which they must
live, should be sblo to stop the bleeding of
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1875-04-13

trouble himself to stop stealing unless the
thieves belonged to the opposite party; who Ia
not in the Ring himself, and yet breads an OK
posure which may be dangerous to his pOiti-
cal associates. A reform movement often en-
counters in the dull, passionless opposition OF
such men its most serious obstacle, and the
pursuit of politics finds in their blunt sense OF
integrity and honor fertile source of cOrrup-
ton. What side they will take in contest like
the present depends upon nothing but consid-
crations of private interest or what they sup
pose to he party expediency. 1t ought to be
clear. however, to the dullest comprehension,
that the Canal disclosures will damage both
parties alike, and that both have it in their
power to make capital out of the reform by
zeal in promoting the prosecution and remOrse-
less rigor in casting out the guilty. We are
finding rogues in all sorts of corners, I'M
covering corruption where we should never
have thought Of looking for it, tracing
stolen money to the most respectable
houses. Look into the yawning pockets OF
yonder distinguished Reformer, and you will
find them stuffed with Repair Contracts. Knock
off the hat of that eminent Senator, and q
cloud of Damage Claims will come futtering to
the floor. One is a Democrat to the backbone !;
the other is an Administration Republican OF
the strictest sect. 1t is impossible to hold one
party responsible for the frauds; it may be
easy for one party to seize the credit of put
ting an end to them.
Unfortunately neither so far has shown full
comprehension of its opportunity, and the OPP
portunity is fast slipping away. If it is al
lowed to pass, tho victory will be a purely
personal one triumph for Gov. Tilden and
those who have had the common sense to
stand by him and the ability to be of help.
The Average Legislator now has his choice.
1t is each man for himself.

most toward creating this alarm. ex-

ST. 4SWITHIN.--The legend of St. Switbin
has attracted much attention this year in con-
sequence of the remarkably rainy weather since
the 18th Of July. The common adage of our
english ancestors regarding St. SwithiD is to
the effect that as it rains or is fair on St.Swith-
ms day, the 18th Of July, there will be con-
ti0uous track Of wet or dry weather for the
forty days ensuing. % Tuesday the oath inst,
the forty days which this year began with rain,
ended. No one will deny that continuous
track of rainy weather has characterized the
forty days, now at an end. The records show
that 10 many previous years similar lengthy
rainy seasons have followed wet st. swift
in day.
St. Swithin was Bishop of Winchester and
died about S62 over thousand years ago. which
is long enough TO test aoy legend. Swlthin Was
born near Winchester, aud was monk OF the
old abbey of Winchester, and though be died
q bishop was never regularly canoDzsd. he
is therefore what has been termed home
made saint" 1t would seem that love of be-
ing out 10 the wet was one OF bis peculiarities.
for he directed that when he should die his
body should be buried under the caves drop
pings of the church, 10 which uncomfortable
state it remained for nearly hundred years,
when the clergy in body began the removal
amidst great pomp, to the Cathedral of Win
chester. The ceremony, however, was inter-
rupted at the beginning by heevy burst of
rain, which Continued forty days. The monks,
who were frightened by the rain, desisted and
built chapel over the remains on the spot
where they lay buried. Out of this incident
grew the legend which has held place 10 the
popular mind along with other traditions and
superstltlons for SO many centuries.
