The prospects for the passage of the
River and Harbor bill in the Senate, which
includes an appropriation for the improve

Senators Davis and Oglesby, recognizing

semnating with the vaccine virus an OBJ
noxious human poison. there are other and
sufficient grounds for seeking fresh source
of tho former. It seems that although
the vcsce formed by lymph trans
mlttcd from person to person may
be perfect I'm structure and appearance,
there Is reason to suspect an i'm
pairment in tho specific power of vaccine
contagion. Indeed, DIR. GREGORY has re-
corded facts showing that the vaccine mat
ter. by passing through the bodies of many
persons, loses in process Of time somc cs-
sentia part Of its activity. In the course OF
years according to the testimony Of MIR.
MANSON, the lymph becomes humdniscd, the
cicatriccs are less perfect, and the mortal
ity after vaccination, estimated on largo
scale exhibits an untOward Increase,
namely, from six and half per cent. for
twenty years, from 1896 to 1855, TO upward
Of ninc per cent. for the two years, 1868 and
1864. 1t Is proper TO add that the conclu-
sions OF these professional observers are in
accord with the experience furnished by tho
Prusslan army.
In view Of such statements put forth by
competent authorities, and relating to u
question Mt once arises, Is the method Of
vaccination by matter drawn in all eases at
first hand from the COW really practicable,
aud is II equally efficient. As to the former
point. we learn from Sir THOMAS WATSON
that systematic plan for rcsorting to the
original source of vaccine virus has been
devised and successfully carried out in Bel
GUM. We are told that among 10000 chill
dren vaccinated at Brussels by direct trans
fer Of matter from tho COW, from 1865 TO
1870, and living aftcrward amid the terrible
epidemic Of 1870 II, there was not known u
single instance of an attack of small pOX.
1t appears that the same method Is followed
In the Founding Hospital Of ST. Peters
burg with equally good results. The ex-
pericncc Of thirty-sX OF the most eminent
practisers OF Belgium is cited as TO the vir-
tue of the dry vaccine lymph carried on
ivory points Out Of total of 800 cases,
479, or 96 per cent, were successful. The
protective power Of the virus obtained di-
rcctly from the animal subject being thus
demonstrated. and the necessary expenses
OF the system being very moderate in
amount, Sir THOMAS WATSON earnestly
recommends its immediate adoption in the
United Kingdom.

JoHN SHERMAN has still another resource,
which he is just In the frame Of mind
TO try When man secs ruin and dis
grace before him, and fancies there Is
n possibility Of cxtrication by n daring
deed, he is not likely to hesitate about
vcnturing. He has promised resumption
before the date fixed by the law, jan
uary I, 1879. With the present stock Of
coin and the accumulatiuns to he made In
the next few months, it would not be difficult
to resume specie payments temporarily. The
operations Of the Treasury have been and
will be directed to this end and some morn
ing, on the eve OF the Ohio election, SHER-
MAN intends to startlc the country with the
announcement that specie payments have
been resumed. He will doubtless play this
card, but he is in error II he fanccs he can

Much interest has lately been awakened
In England by the discussion Of the efficacy
of the existing methods of vaccination. The
movement in favor OF making the prccautiOn
compulsory has directed attention to the
propricty Of rcsOrting in almost every in
stance, not to the human subject, but to the
COW, for supply OF the injecting matter.
The grave pcrils involved in the opposite
course have been established by such pathul-
ogists as JONATHAN HUTCHINSON, and very
recently his arguments have been reit-
Grated, and the urgent necessity of reform
in the common system Of vaccination has
been affirmed by Sir THOMAS WATSON, one Of
the most able and accomplished members Of
the medical profession in Great Britain.
Sir THOMAS WATSON points out that al
though DR.. JENNER'S discovery, rightly and
vigorously applied, as it was for n time in
Denmark, proves complete defence against
the most loathsOme pcstilence that the
world has known, yet an uglyblot has fallen
on this charter of safety. He shows that
| in some instances the operation may inn
! part the poison Of hateful and dcstruc-
| tive disease peculiar to the human species,
and the rctributiye heritage of its vices.
The disaster might, he thinks, he avcrted,

cine lymph is taken from mlngling with il
but Of course we cannot count ON such scru-
pulous precautions being taken. If the cX-
listing practice IL to be followed under the
scheme of compulsory vaccination which is
now pressed on the British Parliament, the
London physician would applaud a father
who should submit to multiplied judicial
penalties rather than expose his child to a
CHASTITY infection.
In his discussion OF this important subject
DR.. WATSON aiiirms that, besides the avoid.

BuzzeIl's Second Trial.

According to the Belfast Mainc) Age. Jo-
sEpH Il. BUZzELL has been placed upon trial
at Ossipcc, New Hampshire on n criminal
charge, under peculiar circumstances.
Several years ago BUZzELL was engaged
TO be married TO SUSAN \. HANSON. He
broke the engagement. She sued him for
breach of promise The day before the trial
was to have begun, she was shot through a
window and killed. BUZZELL was indicted
for the murder, tried. and acquitted. He
proved an alibi, to the satisfaction Of the
jury; although IL now appears that he was
guilty.
After BUZzELLs acquittal several houses
and barns belonging to persons who had
been witnesses against him were burned.
This renewed the suspicious against him,
and led to tho arrest of n young man in his
employ. named Cook. COOK made n clean
breast of It. and said that he shot Miss HAN
son, under BuZzELL's directions. BUzzELL
lcvcllcd the gun, and by threats compelled
| him To fire It,.
BY Cook s testimony, which is fully cred
| itcd II Is apparent that the alibi proved on
the former trial was sham. and that BUz-
zELL was a principal In the murder
But how the New Hampshire court gets
over the provision Of the state Constitution,
which prohibits the putting man in jcopar-
dy more than once for the same offence, it Is
difficult to understand. 1t Is said that he
was tried before a. principal, aud is now
| charged as accessory; hut that to quote
the expression of an old English Chancellor,
now generally supposed 10 be slang is very
thin. There could bc no moro Migrant viu-
lation of the Constitution. To the moral
penalties Of his atrocious crime the man is
nmcnablc; but we are unable to 500 how Ne
can lawfully be subjected to this second
trial.

One Thing More, Mr.. Bayard.

Mr.. THOMAS +. BAYARD-a big Senator
from n little State wrote letter to the
Tammany Society Of this city, intended To
be read at their Fourth of July celebration.
In this letter Mr.. BAYARD fires of some
heavy guns with good many fire rockets.
The great thing which he harps upon is u
free ballot.
Now this IS all very we'll, SO far as it
goes but in itself IL is not enough. The
ballot was tolcrably free Mt the last election
of President. Yet the man lawfully elected
has never occupied the Office. Why? Be-
cause the two Houses Of Congress- shirkcd
the duty imposed upon them by the COnsti-
tuition, and undertook to intrust IL to an UNI
constitutional body, which they dcnominat-
ed an Electoral Commission.
Thus we see the people may have free
ballot and yet not have Chief Executive
Magistrate OF their own choosing As they
are suffering, now, deprivation Of rulers
of their own choice in consequence not
Of restricted ballot, but of dcrcllction
of the two Houses Of Congress To perform
their constitutional functions, 1t would seem
20 have been more III order for Mr.. BAYARD
to descant on the Importance of Congress
doing its duty.
Mr.. BAYARD suggests the alternative OF
lighting for free ballot. We are not re-
duced to that. The ballot is free enough for
the will of the majority to prevail now, II
Congress will only insist on a fair count and
true returns. We have the ballot What
we need is II better Congress.
