Funerals as Disease Breeders.

There il good reason 10 believe That dis.
ease il occasionally disseminated through
the medium OF funerals. We have at least
one fairly authenticated instance In this
country Of diphtheria being diffussd
broadcast through the crowdins incidental
occasionally to the last ceremony. In
America this question Is beginning to re-
csivs much attention, and several cases
have been reported Of late whore the
transmission Of the disease from ths corpse
seemed highly probable. Tbs Suffolk Dis.
trict Medical Society sent cut four hun
dred circulars to medical practitioners.
with q view to ascertain tho opinion Of the
profession on the alleged danger Of per-
hitting public funerals Of pcrsons who
had died from diphtheria. Two hundred
aud thirty-ninc were received.
OF these, one hundred aud forty-threc
writers expressed a belief In the possible
danger OF c~ontagion At such funerals ; sew
sntecn believe that there 10 danger from
funerals in the houses oi the dead. but

in the present state VI knowledge there is
no Justification in prohibiting public fu-
nerals: aud eight record circumstances
which occurred in their own experience
eonfrmatory Of the proposition that peril
may ensuc. but the testimony these latter
advance Is not quite satisfactory. The 30
ciety, after due consideration. recommend
that funerals at the houses OF those who
have died Of diphtheria should be private.

A Herald Warrington special says: IL
Ia evident that the present session Of Co.'S

nssa results. Business, In fact, II the last

vanquished in tho trial Of party strength.
they are nsw struggling with equal energy
to find excuses for resisting the popular

HIRING OFT THIS DISPATCHES

People who live in glass houses
should not throw stones" Ia . proverb
older than the American R-public ; but
IL is . singular fac, that the persons
most addicted TO tho dangerous =
msnt OF throwing stones are precisely
the onss who occupy these fragile s,ruc-
tnres. The Democratic members Of the
Louisiana and Florida investigating
committees. appointed by the House.
have made q formal demand on the
Western Union and Atlantic and Pacific
Telegraph Companies for copies Of all
the dispatches which have passed be-
tween Secretary Chandler and promi-
nsnt Republicans. The committee has
undoubtedly the right to make this de-
mand. and 1t will undoubtedly be com.
piled with. The dispatches are proba.
bly, all in cipher. but they will have a
right to demand the key TO the cipher.
which will DO furnished. In the mean
time the Republicans on the Committee
have the same right to demand the tels-
grams Of Hewitt to prominent Dem
ocrats. and they will demand them. I'M
less the order Of the Democrats 10 re.
scindsd.
II Hswitt's dispatches are made pub.
lie. We Hall know how 1t 10 that Missis.
sippi. North Carolina. aud Indiana were
carried for Tildsn. Every citizen in the
land is anxious to gain information in
regard to these States. When these dis
patches are brought To light. We shall
know precisely what agency Sam Tilden
had in the frauds and intimidation which
we're praciiced in those States. and by
means OF which they were carried by the
Democracy. by all means. let us have
all the dispatches on both sides pro
duesd. Secretary Chandler has no feaI
with regard to his own. The glass
house will. ws venture TO predict, BE-
found to be the residence OF Abraham S.
Hewitt. and his master, Samuel j.. Til

THE SILVER COMMISSION.
10. Labor. - Presented ~ senator
Jones.

From the New York Tribune. Nov. stb.l
The Joint Congregational Silver Com.
mission. which has been holding . session
At II. James Hotel since September 18th.
has completed its work In this city and
goes 10 Washington. where testimony will
be taken during the coming six weeks.
Senator Jones OF Nevada said last evening
that tho Commission hoped. by making
the change, TO got more conveniently the
testimony Of prominent men. who would
be likely. Ut this season. to visit Washing.
ton. The Commission had not digested
the testimony already In, and there were
no results 10 DO made known. Tho Com.
mission held In view the obtaining OF
opinions and facts derived from the sx.
porience and study Of financiers and mer-
chants and of men possessing q prae-
teal knowledge Of public Affairs. To
that end q great many invitations had
been sent out. and gentlemen OF this
city, Boston. Philadelphia, Chicago and
other large cities, had either appeared
before the commission In person or made
written answers 10 tho questions included
In the invitation. senator Jones believed
that the work In New York was very salts
factory. but thought, nevertheless. that
not much had been brought forward that
was new In either fact or theory. In his
opinion the views OF individual members
OF the commission had been ESSENTIALLY
changed by the inquiry thus far. Tho
men who had given testimony represented
the utmost diversity OF opinion. II was
clear that there was no well thought ofsys.

BRIEF MENT1ON-Will some solver ex.
plaiu why so many men hover around the
State House from moraing till nights
During a warm debate in the Senate yes
terday between Messrs. Burch and Greene.
a rather comical circumstance created
hearty laugh. Mr.. Burch had the floor and
was apparently about through with his re-
marks, ready to take his seat Mr. Greene
was evidently exceedingly anxious to reply
and was half standing, half sitting. this
attracted Mr.. Burchs attention, and as he
saw it Strengthened up and keenly watched
his opponent, whose chair was only few
feet distant. Both Senators kept their posi-
lions for half q minute. cycling each other
intently. Mr.. Burch broke the spell by
saving that he had not finished his speech.
Pickett, the man who killed jackson Low
and NJ. Knuckley, has not been arrested.
Ernest Pepps, who killed Anna Winkly at
the corner of Delord and Rampant streets,
is still at large.
Jane Benton, the little girl who was
burned at her home, No. 40 Bertrand street,
died last evening.
John Willie, sailor, at work on the
British ship Royal Charley, head of Second
street, accidentally fell into the river and
was drowned. He was from Liverpool, and
eighteen years old.
AS Mr.. Pinchback was in New Orleans
Thursday night, the statement made by
two newspapers yesterday morning that he
had gone to Washington we're confusing.
Moses Gray was caught in the act-rob
bling a hen roost. Having bagged about
dozen chicks at the corner df Uoion and
Dryades streets, Moses was about to gel
out of the bulrushes when the owner, j
Gallagher, stepped out of secluded noos
and captured the thief with the fowls.
jackson Cashmere was permitted to take
a private room in the fourth cslaboose, be
cause A. Dejean says he is an embezzler.
There was small blaze in the residence
of Mrs. r. Charles, No. 1888 Magazine street
Thursday night, but was discovered in tint
| to prevent q disaster.
Charles Scott, a clerk, was jugged to-
stealing $40 from Harry Lawson. Judg'
Staes will attend to the case.
