In spite OF Kearneyism and the other
dead weights he carried, General Butler re-
c-ived more votes as candidate for Govern
0r of Massachusetts than were thrown for
Tilden electors in 1876, and larger num-
Der by more than twenty-thousand, than
elected Governor Rice in 1877. All things
considered sold Cock-eye,' as he is face
iiously called, developed strength that
was marvellous Had not the rufiian Kearney
alarmed the more respectable voters of the
State, the chances are that Butler would
have been elected

If we could feel resentment toward the
miserable clay of our dead, we would, with
considerable heartiness, curse the stolen
bones Of A. T. Stewart, deceased. Thirty
years ago he became the owner of church
property in New York, thai embraced
cemetery, packed with human remains.
Violating his promise not to disturb the
graves, he set men to work among them to
eXcavate the foundation for stables and
carriage house The neighbors, shocked at
the sacrilege, gathered as a mob to stop the
work, They were driven off by the police,
however, and the merchant prince hus-
tied the rafting skulls, and RIBS, aud verte-
brae and other bones of his old friends and
neighbors into his carts, and dumped them,
as debris, into East River. This inhuman
conduct is recalled now, and few there are
who are not disposed to regard the disturb
ance of his own bones in the light of just
retaliation.

BUSINESS OR DEATH.

If there is one fact concerning the yellow
fever more clearly established than another
it is the fact that it is not indigenous to
this country. 1t is not classable among
our native scourges, and such is the over
whelmning testimony that it is the creature
of foreign cline, that all efforts to ascribe
its origin to local causes, no longer attract
the attention of scientific men.
1t being an accepted fact, then, that yell
low fever can never obtain foot.hold
among our people unless brought into the
country from abroad, the lessons of the past
few months have certainly taught us our
duty We must establish national quar-.
antine. HYGIENE regulations Of sufficient
ly rigid nature to keep the scourge out of
the country, cannot be enforced Neither
is it demonstrated fact that any degree of
cleanliness, or the observance of even the
most exacting health laws, would prove a
certain barrier to the epidemic's approach.
1t is urged as fatal objection to a ma
tional quarantine that it will interfere with
commerce. Interfere with commerce, 1t
is almost disgrqceful to our humanity that
we are capable Of interposing such an OBJ
lection. "Let the plague come; let it claim
its victims by the thousands; let it devas.
tate our cities; bring sorrow, and mourning
and desolation and death into all oui
homes: Let it do this; but DON'T INTER
FERE WITH COMMERCE. Don't destroy our
chances to turn the nimble penny" Sift
the objection to the dregs, and it amounts to
this, and nothing more. What commerce
was there in New Orleans, in Memphis, in
Vicksburg, in Jackson and Grenada during
the prevalence Of the yellow fever plague
in those cities2 twas more effectually de-
stroyed than it would have been had an UNI
yielding embargo been laid from the mouth
Of the Columbia river to Nova Scotia
There was no commerce there; and had
there been, there would have been no peo-
pie there to maintain it. 1t partakes Of
the barbarous, and not of the humane
spirit of the nineteenth century.
OF our ability to maintain an effective
quarantine there can be no doubt. This
can be done without closing single north
ern port. During the war, with more than
million unacclmated men in the South,
there was not n single case of yellow fever,
although the scourge ragged IN San Domingo
with unaccustomed viruence II was ex-
pected to come as ally of the South; but il
was completely fenced out, and that, too, by
blockade that was said to exist more on
paper than in fact.

ward, and urge upon Congress, as they did
in 1872, the establishment of national
quarantine. The lessons of the past season
have been too fearful to admit of the use Of
untricd prcventives. More than twenty

OUR system of government is becoming
very complex, and alarmingly expensive;

Biennial sessions would serve a better our

governed too much, tina, our law books are
becoming too voluminous, is an admitted
fact, and the only way to prevent the grind.

NOT start the mill so often In the

AS uncomfortable desire upon the part
of the more depraved of the colored race, to
commit outrages upon white women,
seems TO be a fixed part of their organisms
In view OF this, and the alarming frequency
OF such outrages, our lawmakers should try
the experiment of severcr penalties. As
any community would be better off if per-
manently relieved of persons upon whom
rests the danining stain Of such infamous
crimes, the law should fix the punishment
at penitentialy for life. Such a penalty
might not serve as an absolute preventive
OF the crime, but It would greatly lessen the
frequency ct its occurrence, as also..of the
summary measures on the part Of the
friends Of the victim of the outrage. But
we would not have the law to apply solely
to the black man. The word "colored' or
NEGRO" should not appear in it. 1t should
deal with the white man and black man
alike, and none the lighter if the victim
| should be a negro woman. In saying
this we may give mortal Of
fence to our ''ingrained, rock.ribbcd"
Bourbonic friends; but we can't permit
THAT consideration to silence us. If ex-
listing laws are not effective in restricting
their privileges" in that respect, then the
necessity for the proposed law becomes the
more apparent. If, on the other hand, the
proposed law would work no restriction OF
privileges" then they have no occasion fot
either complaint or rcmonstrancc.

ABOUT five years ago, an Iowa man
named John Britton, conceived the idea
that Jerusalem, but more especially that
portion of it near the site of the temple, was
suffering Tor the presence of an American
saloon. lie acted upon the idea, introduced
the cocktails, gin-slings, mint,juleps, port
sangarees, sherry-cobblers and whiskey-tod-
dies he had been accustomed to prepare for
his Iowa customers, and the result was as
gratifying to him. as it was wonderful to
others. A few months ago he returned TO
Iowa, wealthy man, selling his property,
which cost him $500, for $4,000, and bring
ing besides nearly $4,000 in actual cash.
If we were ''bad,' which we amt, we'd
charge this result to the presence in Jerusa-
lem of so many American preachers.
