DRINK M DIsEAsE.-A recent number
of the Lancet gives some curious calculations
which have been made Of the proportional
amount devoted by the Workingman of
Birmingham to the support respectively of
their liquor saloons and of their hospitals.
The tigures bear something like 30 to one.
$50, 0C0 is contributed annually by them to
the medical institutions OF the town, and
$3.50, 00U, is spent in drink. The Lancet fur
Their asks, '.NEhat proportion does the con-
tribution of the workingmen bear to the to-
tai expenses of the hospitals? and what
proportion of the work of these medical in
stit,ltions is occasioned by the drink on
which they spend so much :" Commenting
on toe state Of the case, it says: wv re-
move every obstacle to as free Il consumption
of liquor as is CONSTANT with the MAIN
tenance Of equilibrium, and then, with Il
benevolent appropriateness, we provide hos
pitfalls in which the consequences OF drink
may be recovered from, or ameliorated.'
The CORE Give suggested for this state of #
fairs is, that the drink sold within a certain
area should be taxed as 10 defray the expense
of skilled treatment for those. whom dra3k
has ulcapacitatea for their wcGk.

A fellow named %Simonson, claiming to
be from South Carolina, recently stole
the overcoat Of the editor-in.ch chief and
of the river editor Of the Memphis EVEN
ING LEDGER, and then came back to get
that of the city editor. There is no
overcoat SO ~lhreadbare that some one
will not be found needy enough to steal
it." says one Of the old drsmatists. We
did suppose, however, that an editors
overcoat, especially as very few editors
have a coat on under it, was exempt.
The most amusing part of it is that those
editors actually permitted that poor devil
TO be bound over in the sum Of $4,000 for
the 81 80 o%vercoat OF the editor in.chief
and $1,000 for the Is cent overcoat OF the
river editor, which could only be equalled
by binding him over in the sum OF $1,000
for not raising the coat Of the city edi
tor.-NdshUiLe American.
Poor, envious soull That could only
have been written in a fifth. story loft By
an editor shivering in a linen duster ant
in the habit of going b%arefooted ever!
summer. He is safe, for Simonson is
heightened gentleman who never steal
from the naked. BE draws only Oh

wear a dollar and a half overcoat withou
feeling a sense of superiority ever tn

The SoLDESE TROUPE.-Last night
that Charming cunic opera Genevieve de
Bsabant WAS ioeiy aud most unsteady
rendered by the soldeae English opera
b luffs troupe, with Sol ieue as "Drogan,"
Miss Rosa Stslla as 'Gensvieve," and
Miss Vesey as "0lwald, in which roles
they appeared 10 advantage. Number
less delightful solos, duets and choruses
were we'll sung aud we're enthusiastically
applauded by the pleased audience. Mr..
Campbell, as the Burgomaster," was
particularly good and funny. The song
and chorus, "A Cup Of Tea" was finely
rendered by the troupe and was repeat
eddy eneored The duet Of the gems
d'armes, "Pltou" Or. Wallace) aud
Grabuge" (Mr. Marshal), was one of
the great attractions of the opera, and
created immense amusement. Take it
all in all, Genevieve de Brabant was the
most pleasing opera presented during
the week, and it is to be regretted that
the audience was not larger to enjoy the
rare musical treat. At the matinee to-
day Poulet and Poulette will be pre-
scented, with Soldene as " Poulette," Mr..
Aston as Poulet' and Miss Rosa Stella
as "Foedora." Tonight the Soldene
people will give their farewell perform

chief attractions.

trubled with worms that they sent over
to England to see if they had any spar

5000 boxes and they ate them all but
after while they got worse and they would
eat all the fruit aud get down in the
