A mad dog occasioned IN excitement in
Brooklyn yesterday and cost citizen q
wound in the mouth from bullet discharged
from q frightened policeman's revolver.
We have fortunately had no marked cases
Of rabies and hydrophobia in the city very
recently, but that must be attributed to
our luck and not to the precautions
Of our authorities. Hundreds of dogs are
running at large, many of them miserable
half fed ours, just the sort to go mad and
bite people yet dog law has been in oper-
alton for some weeks and it was supposed
that the dog days would find US tolerably
safe from the dreaded and horrible dis
ease. Our worthy city authorities move
very slowly. At the rate they have
heretofore adopted we may prob
ably hope that pound will be
in readiness and dog catchers appointed
somewhere in the neighborhood of Christ
mas, and that the duty of putting muzzles
on the mouths Of vagrant ours will be en-
forced about the time that their tails are in
danger Of being frozen off, Seriously, if
the people are to be protected at all from n
horrible danger, it is the duty of the Mayor
to see that the dog law is enforced at once
and strictly, and that every unmuzzled or
unclaimed dog is driven from the streets.

Tho Recent Earthquak es and Tidal
Wave.

BY mail from the Peruvian coast comes
tale of disaster and ruin which happily ii
seldom falls to our lot to publish. The
earthquake that recently disturbed the bed
of the Pacific Ocean from Japan to Peru, and
which was followed by terrific waves on the
coast of South America, has brought de-
struction to many thriving towns and death
to hundreds of their populations. In
the account which will be found on
another page this morning the cause
Of the great tidal wave, as it is called, is at
tributed to the eruption Of the volcano of
Ilaga, on the frontier of Peru but such
eruptions are the effects, not the causes, of
volcanic disturbances. The enormous
pressure developed by the generation of
steam or gases beneath the earth's crust
along certain cavities that extend for thou
sands of miles and connect the volcanic
regions Of the Old and New worlds together
cause the upheavals and rendings OF the
surface called earthquakes. The vol

Secretary Sherman's Fiscal Opera.
lions.

An evening contemporary regrets that the
whole proceeds of the new sale of bonds to
the Syndicate are not to be set aside for
redemption of greenbacks, instead Of o
small proportion Of them. This is a hasty
Judgment. If only the four and half per
cent bonds could be disposed Of at par the
criticism Of our contemporary would be per-
and even if the whole three hundred mill
ions authorized by law were put
on the market the residue now un-
sold would bring in no more gold
than may be needed for redemption
purposes But the demonstrated STABILITY
scope for fiscal operations. 1t is quite pos
sible for the refunding process to go on with
out obstructing the necessary preparations
for specie payments in 1879.
With the four per cents at par it would be
blunder for the Treasury to stop refunding
in the hope of facilitating resumption. Sec
rotary Sherman will probably get more gold
available for resumption by continuing the
refunding operations than he would if he
should drop them, because the sales will pro-
coed so much more rapidly that there will
be q more diffused eagerness to invest in
the new bonds when it is seen that the sup
ply is likely to be exhausted. The people
who will take the bonds consist of two
classes-namely, those whose money is al
ready invested and those who have money
at command for new investments 1t is
only from the latter class that gold can be
obtained to form a reserve for redeeming
the greenbacks. The other class, consist
ing of people whose money is already well
invested, will not voluntarily disturb their
investments to purchase the new bonds.
But the owners of the fve-twenty
skies can be made to do this by
compulsion. The Secretary of the
Treasury can call in the six per
cent bonds at pleasure. Most of the
holders will prefer to take the new bonds
rather than gold, because they would be
puzzled to find any other equally good and
safe investment. Without this coercion they
would never surrender their six per cent
bonds. If the Treasury should stop refund
ing the public debt it would not thereby
acquire any gold for resumption. It is only
by the purchase of new bonds with
capital not already invested in our
government securities that redemp-
ton fund can be accumulated. The
refunding will consist for the most
part in exchanges of the old bonds for the
new, and will not interfere with the invest
ment of fresh capital in the four per cents.
Instead of interfering it will promote it by
exhausting the supply of new bonds SO
rapidly as to quicken the efforts of capital
lists to get them while they may. It implies
an oversight of fundamental facts or want
of discrimination to suppose that with the
four per cents at par refunding will impede
resumption. The wise thing for Secretary
Sherman to do is to set apart for resumption
purposes the excess Of what he receives over
q virtual exchange of bonds. It would be
absurd to stop these exchanges in the hope
Of thereby acquiring gold.
