so far as this is struggle between the
Crescent and the Cross, between the
Russian and the Turk, our whole heart
goes out to Russia. We pray that victory
may rest upon the banners of the Gar,
that he will not pause until he reaches
the Bosphorus. We hone he VII take
Constantinople, and that If it pleases bin
he will keep 1t. Constantinople will be
a much more useful capital in the hands
OF Christian monarch like Alexander
than in those of the master of the harem.
Let Russia do her work we'll Since she
has gone into the war let her not pause
until the Turk has been driven over to
Asia. where he belongs. Let these pro-
vinces be ruled by Christian men. Give
Austria her share, for Austria is wise,
great Power who. will rule with wisdom.
Give Gambia, Thessaly and Epirus to
Greece, where they belong. Let the
Slavonic States have Slavonic ruler
like the Prince of Montenegro, and if
England is anxious about the road to
India let her take Egypt. She will find
that her Empire will be 3s strong with
Russia on the Bosphorus as now with the
ruthless Turk. England feared that if
the Suez Canal were built 1t would Grip
pie her commerce and keep her out of
Asia. She finds she was mistaken. She
will find similar mistake when this war
Is over. Her rulers would be wise if
they gave themselves some right to
share in the victory of the Gar by shar-
ing with him the hazards of campaign
which commends itselfto the admiration
and the sympathy of the Christian
world.

DIPrHERIA.-The report of the
State board of health Massachusetts,
shows that it has accomplished good
practical State work, and in compari-
son with what similar organizations
in other States are doing it is an ad-
mirable body. But it does not seem
to come up to the standard required
by the press of that State. The most
important part of it, in the opinion of
Intelligent critics, is the result of local
Investigations into certain diseases.
The year 1870 was marked in some
cities and towns OF Massachusetts as
we'll as other States by an extraordi-
nary prevalence of diptheria. 1t is a
curious fact that the disease there was
more than twice as prevalent in Octo-
Der as in any other month, notwith-
standing it was month of delightful
weather while it rapidly disappeared
during the damp, drizzly November.
A very superficial and incidental treat
ment is given to this important sub
ject. The investigation into dipther
one of the most terrible of modern dis
eases, is incomplete and unsatisfactory
1t is well known that some of the rene
dies for diptheria are applied with al
most unYarying success, while others
have little effect upon the malignant
cases. The local reports of the ravages
of diptheria in various Massachusetts
localities render it difficult to decide
whether it arises from filth or not. 1t
is important to collect the experience
of all American towns on this matter,
so as so known how to deal with dis,
ease which entails as much physical
suffering as the plague. There seems
to be little doubt that it presents in an
eminent degree the characteristics of
contagious disease.

mon have already been caught in
the Delaware river, weighing l04
pounds, although that river has been
