Dr. Mahomed, of the Madras fever hospital, states that he has satisfactorily ascertained that in the form of Bright's disease which follows scarlet fever there
 is an early stage, the first indication of which is a pulse exhibiting high tension, though this may be preceded by dry akin and confined bowels. Next comes, as first in the order of changes in the kidney, urine which contains no albu- men recognizable by the ordinary tests, but some blood stuff, which yields the blue reaction with ozonic ether and tine ture of guaiaeum. If tine change still goes on, this is followed by the ordinary serum albnmen, and when this is abund- ant no blue reaction can be obtained. Moreover, Dr. Mahomed says that he has only been able to get this blue reac- tion when the tension is arterial, not when it is purely venous. These re- searches, it is easy to see, have peculiar value. % ,z =

Scotia raises any wheat, but they con-
sumo annually 400, 900 barrels of -four,
worth an average of Sc per barrel for
importation, this one item thus amount
ing to So, 100000 a year. New York
used to sell all this -four to Nova Scotia
and Newfoundland, but now sells none
of it. The trade has been diverted land
Montreal gets it all. Of course, the
loss of $2,400,000 is a bagatelle for New
York. But it is a double loss when
Montreal gets it, and treble, quadru-
pie loss when it is considered that this
is -four manufactured of Milwaukee
wheat, which used to come to our CITY
by the lakes and the Erie Canal, and is
now diverted to the Welland Canal and
the St. Lawrence. The Erie Canal
freight alone on these 400, 900 barrels of
-four is equal to more than half the total
revenue of the Government from the
duty on coal. This is fair instance of
the causes which have tended TO make
the United States the dearest country to
live in on the face of the globe, at the
very time when prices everywhere else
are downward and cheapening contin-
ually.-N. Y World.

Washington Letter.
WASHINGTON, D. c.,
Nov. 18th, 1875. {

Ed. Grange 4dz1uee -
Well, sir, we are about all here:
congressman and applicants for ap-
pointments. You know the House
is now democratic, and it has some
forty or fifty appointments to bestow.
Well, sir, there won't be any difficult
ty about getting men to fill these
positions without going outside of
the democratic party. The democ-
racy may be in a minority when it
comes to voting, but when it's office
hunting that's to be done, it can ev-
lastingly roll up a crowd. I defy
the republicans or anybody else to
beat US then.
And your heart would be gladden.
ed to hear how patriotic we all are,
and what we've all done for the pal
ty and the country. To be sure, in
this matter every one Of US speaks
for himself and never for others, and.
to tell the truth, every one of us
strongly suspects that every other
one Of us, except himself, lies about
himself. That is brags. You can't
depend on them.
I see the democratic papers are
blowing about the whiskey thieves,
and arguing that it shows a vast
amount of corruption in the repub-
lican party. So it does, but, blast
them, can't they see that it proves,
too, that republican officials are
working it all out of their party and
into the penitentiary as fast as they
can? What are they blowing about,
then7 They had better dry up on
that theme, it proves too much.
In relation to the Interior De-
partment they are all right. There
isn't more corruption in the country
than. has its home. in the Indian
Bureau, Patent: Office and Land
Office, all of which are but divisions

performances must be construed as
proving either that his statement was
an exaggeration and his language
far too strong for the occasion, or
that he is less than a preacher; less
than citizen; less than a man! AS
is is, every school commissioner in
Brooklyn stands accused. by Mr..
Beecher, and justice to the innocent
demands that he shall at once give
the names of those who are guilty.
Will he do so? Until this is done
we cannot believe SO damaging
charge on the general and indeh-
nate evidence now before us, and
must hold the author of the accusa-
ton under the suspicion of being a
foul slanderer of his neighbors.
Since the above was in type, we
understand that Mr.. Beecher has
explained that he referred to events
which occurred several years ago.
in New York, when the Infamous
Tammany crowd controlled that
city. His language as given in the
above quotation, is not calculated
to lead the mind of the reader to
such an inference; and even in that
case his charge is an exaggeration.
The truth is: his accusation is the
most damaging assault against the
public school system that it has
ever sustained-and the enemies of
the system will not be slow in max
ing it available in their interest. It
is a great pity that such words were
ever spoken.

The Weekly Sun!
l776. NEW YORK.: 1876,

Eighteen hundred and seventy-six is
the Centennial year. tits also the year
in which an Opposition House of Rep
resentatives, the first since the war, will
be in power at Washington; and the
year of the twenty-third election Of
President of the United States. All
of these events are sure to be of great
interest and importance, especially the
two latter; and all of them and everv.
thing connected with them will be fully
and freshly reported and expounded in
The Sun.
The Opposition House of Representa-
tives, taking up the line of inquiry
opened years ago by The Sun, will
sternly and diligently investigate the
corruptions and misdeeds of Grants ad-
ministration; and will, it is to be hoped,
lay the foundation for new and better
period in our national history. Of all
this The Sun will contain complete and
accurate accounts, furnishing its readers
with early and trustworthy information
upon these absorbing topics.
The twenty third Presidential elec-
tion, with the preparations for it, will
be memorable as deciding upon Grants
aspirations for third term of power
and plunder, and still more as deciding
who shall be the candidate of the party
of Reform; and as electing that candi-
date. Concerning all these subjects,
those who read The Sun will have the
constant means of being thoroughly we'll
informed.
The WEEKLY Sun, which has attain
ed circulation of over eighty thousand
copies, already has its readers in everv
State and Territory, and we trust that
the year 1876 will see their numbers
doubled. It will continue to be thor
ough newspaper. All the general news
of the day will be found in it, condensed
when unimportant, at full length when
of moment; and always, we trust, treat
ed in clear, interesting and instructive
manner.
It is our aim to make the WEEKLY
Sun the best family newspaper in the
world, and We shall continue to give in
it's columns large amount of miscellan~
eous reading, such as stories, tales,
poems, scientific intelligence and agri-
cultural information, for which we are
not able to make room in our daily edi-
tion. The agricultural department., es-
pecially is one of its prominent features.
The fashions are also regularly reported
in its columns, and so are the markets
of every kind. :......
The WEEKLY Sun, eight pages with
fifty six broad columns is only $l.20 a
year, postage prepaid. AS this price
barely repays the cost of the paper, no
discount can be made from this rate to
clubs, agents, Postmasters, or, anyone
else. >: .:,n ..,.- -,

VI tne: inferior Department. Old
Zach Chandler is cleaning out this
Augean stable. Just pitching the
whole caboodle into the street.
Why? Because he knows that some
of these clerks must know about the
corruptions, if they are not partners
in 1t. 1t would take a life time to
try them and select the guilty from
the innocent, and so he very judi
ciously kicks them all out.
AS nothing is said about why they
are sent adrift, it affords a chance
for the democratic papers to make
capital by pitying them and denounc-
ing Chandler. But what's the use?
Everybody knows that they would
howl just as loudly if he didn't turn
out anybody. The fact is, this hab-
it Of the papers of denouncing all
who are not of their party has be-
come so common that nobody pays
any attention to it. Nobody be-
lieves word of it.

won't. Talk about a lottery, with

it's a sure thing compared to this.
The fact is the democrats haven't
had anything for so long time that
they are as hungry as wolves.

The Grange Advance is advised that
the Age can see no good to accrue to
the Independents by getting by the ears
among themselves, and in this way help
their enemies. Minnesota ought to be
large enough to hold two such gentle
men as brothers Young and Donnelly,
and when they pull together they are Of
much more Importance to the cause
they profess to support than they are
when divided.-Industriaz Age.
And the Age is advised that, al
though we are and have long been
working for the advancement of the
common people, we are old enough
to have opinions of our own, found
ed upon our own experiences, OBJ
servations, and studies, and cannot,
therefore, always subscribe to the
opinions of others who profess to be
working for the same cause, nor
blndly follow the lead of such.
We will pull together" in the right
direction, but cannot think it would
be commendable in US to unite with
Others in pulling in what we believe
to be a wrong divertion. We do
not believe either in quarrelling or
abuse, but always prefer clear, gen.
tlemanly argument.

Last year We imported into this coun-
try 440, ,598 tons of coal, which produced
a revenue to the Government Of $780,
600, more or less. During the same
year we consumed upward of 20, 600, 900
tons Of bituminous coal, the price of
which must have been enhanced to the
consumer at least one-half the tariff tax
levied upon the importation. That is to
say, it cost the people of the country
$5,000,000 to collect this trile of $780,
600 revenue, showing conclusively that
our duty on coal is as expensive to the
people as suit in chancery would be.
But this is only one side of the question
Of loss. Nova Scotia and Newfound-
land, which used to export coal to New
York and New England, were in the
habit likewise Of buy ying their supplies
in these markets, which are nearest and
most convenient to them. The vessels
which brought out coal and ground plas-
ter and potatoes and fish, took back
corn, -four, provender, groceries, provis-
ions, ETC., and this trade was profitable,
for fishing communities handling good
wages and much cash-choose' to live
well. Neither Newfoundland nor Nova

The Public Schools.

In his thanksgiving day sermon,
Rev. Henry Ward Beecher is rep
resented to have said:
"I know of cases near here,'' said
Mr.. Beecher, and his voice dropped and
his face assumed a serious expression,
"where commissioners have hired fe-
male teachers and have made their en-
ployment depend upon their willingness
to surrender their bodies to crafty the
lust Of their employers, and in some
cases the teachers themselves were foul
mouthed and foul handed"
Can this be true? Coming from
almost any other source, we should
be inclined to answer with an in1me-
date and emphatic NO! But MI.
Beecher said it, and said it in SER
mon, and, under the circumstances,
it is hardly supposable that he would
have dared tell an untruth. He
does not utter it as surmisc, or
hearsay, but as a fact that he kn0zos,
and he ought TO be able and ready
to give names and dates and such
other evidence as will lead to the
arrest and punishment of the guilty.
Only think of the enormity of the
,offence! School Commissioners
not one but several - employing
young lady teachers upon the con-
dition precedent that they shall pros
titute themselves to "gratify the lust
of their employers.
Can it be that it is to such that
the care Of the children of the coun-
try are, to a very considerable ex-
tent, committed? Men who will
first degrade the female teachers and
then employ them? And remember
for what it is that they are afterward
employed! 1t is for teachers Of the
young. To hold a relationship to
the children more influential than
any other that can exist outside of
the immediate family circle. Will
not those who are corrupted cor
rupt, by precept and example, those
who are entrusted to their care?
Most certainly the tendency will be
in that direction. 1t cannot be
otherwise. Who, then, is able to
measure the full consequences of
such guilt-the enormity of such
crime these officials stand accus-
ed OFF
Again we ask, can this charge be
true? Mr.. Beechers language is:
81 knozo Of cases near Aere," etc.
OF course, he meant in BROOKLYN,
where he was then preaching and
whereof he is citizen. What was
his duty in the premises? His duty
as a man, citizen and Christian
minister Was it not to expose
this foulness to the officers of the
law, and to have the guilty commits
sioners ousted from office and pun
ished, and the guilty teachers expell-
edfrom the positions they disgraced?
Most assuredly it was, and his neg
lect to perform that duty is inexcus- ,'::'
objectionable. His not hav-
ing moved in the direction of its

the following about the Parcher
House of that city.
