some means the girl had learned who the unoon-
scious object Of her fancy was, and, though he
adnever seen her, the two corresponded through

THE universal approval given to the
appointment of Governor MCCORMICK TO
his new post of honor is strong evidence
ofthe popularity of that gentleman through
out the country. In commenting on his
appointment the New York EDGRing Nal
says the appointment is one upon which
both the nominee and the country are TO
be congratulated II lie only another evil
dence on the part of the new Administra-
tioa that honesty, capacity and fidelity are
to be the tests Of fitness in the filing of
those offices in which vacancies may occur.
The New York EUsning Post says that his
promotion to the position of Assistant Sec.
rotary will strengthen the Treasury De,
partment and give his own fine abilities
more adequate scope. The Troy 7imsi
says that the appointment is an excellent
one, he being q superior man for the pl.ct
in every respect. The New York Com
mercial Advertiser says the appointment o
Mr.. Mccormick will meet with universe
satisfaction. He ia a gentleman OF cul

II is far easier to prevent disease than Z,
cure ii; and it therefore behooves eve-v
citizen of Washington to look we'll to the
condition of the night-soil pipes in his
dwelling. Zymotic diseases which arise
from this source are the most dangerous
and fatal in their ravages, The diseases
are tracesble to the poisonous state of the
atmosphere. laden with gas from decaying
sewage. This poisonous gas escapes from
various channels into the dwellings. These
pipes should be looked to at once; for the
summer weather, with its heat and mala-
rial influences, will soon be upon us. Un-
less this disease. breeding uuclesnliness is

IT n ESTIMATED that two hundred million
egxs were consumed yesterday to appeise
human sppe,ises. This Is . waste Of raw
material, ard we can prove II. Each egg
weighs six ounce, therefore two hundred
million eggs weigh twelve hundred million
ourees. A plump spring chicken weighs two
pounds. Every egg eaten yesterday was the
germ Of chicken life. Therefore an equivalent
to ak billion and four hundred million ounces
OF fowl was eaten yesterday, 1t being an actual
waste Of Eve billion two hundred millions OF
