old quarantine system, requiring the de-
tention of all vessels from infected places,
has been thus modified and improved,
and the change can not fail 10 rebound to
our great commercial advantage. Nor
need the health of the city be endangered,
although grave responsibilities are placed
on the health officer at the quarantine
station. If the new officers do their
whole duty ably and fearlessly, as we be-
lieve they will, there will be no importa-
ton of disease, for what was SO success
fully accomplished last season can surely
be done hereafter.

A Washington special to the Tribune
says: Chief Justice Waite will leave Wash
ington tomorrow for Charleston, South
Carolina, where he will open the United
States court next Monday. The most inn
portant case to be heard in that court dur
ing the coming term viii be the trial Of
the Ellenton riot indictments--13 true
bills against those accused of being en-
gagged in this affair having been found by
the grand jury. Prominent citizens Of
South Carolina, now in Washington, ex-
press great satisfaction at Chief Justice
Waite's determination to sit on the trial of
these cases, as they say the people Of the
State have great respect for his judicial
fairnes as we'll as his great legal ability.
The Hamburg riot cases will not probably
come up at the next term Of the court, as
they are still pending in the local courts
Of the Stnte.

1t is worthy of note that every officer OF
the army who participated in the parade
on Thursday in honor of the overthrow OF
Republican government in Louisiana, is
native of the South, and all of them
were appointed since the war. The COM
panies that paraded were of the Thirteenth
Infantry-De Trobriand's. All efforts to
secure repr esentation in the line from
either the Third or Sixteenth Regiments
were met with prompt but courteous
refusal.

The Proposed Reconsideration of snvel


The Washington Nation says, those who
are combating the reconciliation of sill
yer may find an indication of the strong
public feeling on the subject in the recent
passage by the Ohio Legislature (Repub-
hcan) of an act making silver legal
tender for all debts, public and private,
within that State. The Illinois Senate
passed similar bill by nearly unani-
nous vote, and the House is ready to
to concur. Like measures are contem-
plated in many of the other States as soon
as their Legislatures assemble. Such ac-
ton by the States will hardly be necessa-
ry, however, for there are enough new
Senators with pronounced views in favor
of reconciliation to give good majority
in the United States States Senate, while
the vote in the House at the last session
showed more than two-thirds majority.
The silver bill must undoubtedly become
law at the next session of Congress.
The Boston Advertiser, noting the &C.
ton of Ohio, attempts to ridicule it and
threatens to send them the excess ofsilver
from the other States. To this the Gin
cinnati Enquirer replies:
We are unable to say which of the
States is most annoyed by an excessive
supply of silver coin, but to which State
soever it is so ''over-abundant" as to be
WEAKNESS of the flesh and "likely to be-
come more so, we say send it along to
Ohio. Stand not upon the order OF your
sending, but send it. OF course the peo-
pie OF Ohio are more liberal than any
bank, and we supposed this fact to be so
we'll understood that the statement of the
fact by the Advertiser was needless In
exchange for this deprecated coin which
the people of this State have Imposed
upon themselves as legal tender" they
have pork and pig iron and grain and
beef and the Cincinnati Enquirer, and
other valuable products which are needed
in the East, while there is a scarcity, moi
only Of silver, but Of all other kinds Of
money in Ohio.

THE RAILROAD VOTE.

The popular vote upon the proposition

nation. If it were a question to pay for
a road already made, TO be delivered TO
the city for a certain price and with GER
tain satisfactory conditions, we might
very well say that no price in money or
taxation would be too great for the OBJ
ject The question is, however, compli-
Gated with possibilities which demand
very great circumspection on the part Of
the voters, lest they place the loan con-
tracted, in the hands Of corporation
which may defeat OF, at least, disappoint
the object. It is, therefore Of import
