Mr.. TILDEN AND THE Young LADY
FROM ST. LOUIS. New York World
in an account Of 2 reception given by
Mr.. and Mrs. Mackin at the Fifth Ave
nue. Hotel recently, says
+ Miss Hazeltine, of st. Louis, the
young lady who was falsely reported in
a st. Louis paper, few weeks ago. to
have been engaged to Ex-Governor Til
den, wore a black velvet, with princess
train, blue silk brocade overskirt, square
neck, halfsleeyes, and trimmings Of lace
and cream coiored ribbons. She also
wore blue silk bonnet with plume and
diamond ornaments.
An interesting incident Of the even
ing was the meeting of Miss Hazeltine
and Mr.. Tilden, who had never seen
each other before. Mr.. Tilden with the
bride on his arm, was prOmenading af-
ter supper in the general parior when
they suddenly met Miss Hazeltine face
him as the President of the United
States. Miss Hazeltine expressed her
sympathy for him, and her indignation
at bis having heen deprived Of the Pre-
Esidsncy. The y ex Governor thanked
Miss Hazeltine. and CALAMITY said that
the sympathy of so lovely lady was a
full consolation for the loss Of any 2isice.
Mr.. Mackin Isagheea and said ;-"Ths

The conversation then turned on the
reports concerning Miss HazeItine and
Mr.. Tilden corteously expressed his re-.

| CONCLUSIONS CIV 44fE HEALTH Com
MISSION ON YELtoW FEvER.-The
Commission of the United States mad
their report at the meeting of the Health
Association at Richmond last week
and submitted the following conclu-
sions:-
| First. We have not in q solitary in
stance found a case Of yellow fever
| which we could justifiably consider as
OF de novo origin, or indigenous to its
locality.
Second. In respect to most of the va
rious towns which we visited and
which were points of epidemic preva'
lence. the testimony showing imports
ton was direct and convincing in its
character
Third. The Transmission of yellow
fever between points separated by any
considerable distance appeared to be
wholly due to human intercourse. In
some instances the poison was carried
in the clothing Or about the persons OF
people going from in fected districts In
other instances it was conveyed in such
fomites as cotton, bagging, or other
goods of the same description.
Fourth. The weight of testimony is
very pronounced against the further use
of disinfectants. Physicians in infected
towns, almost without exception, state
that they are useless agents to arrest
the spread of yellow fever, while some
of them affirm that their vapors are Sc
riously prejudicial to the sick.
Fifth. Personal prophy!oxis by means
of drugs or other therapeutic means has
proved constant failure. A respecta-
BILE number Of physicians think the use
of small doses Of quinine Of some use
! in prevention.
sixth. Quarantine, established with
such degree of surveillance and rigor
that absolute non intercourse is the re-
suit, has efficiently and without excep-
ton protected its subjects. from attacks

The ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS number Of the In
TERNATIoNAL REVIEW devotes forty of its pages
to an exhaustive review of Social Democracy in
Germany, by DR.. Huber, of the University of
Munich, which will be found of unequaled in
terest. The subject forms the life-question Of
European Governments. as they now exist, and
no man could treat it better than Dr. HUBER
e combines two mental traits seldom Joined
in conjunction. The power to- perceive and
state clearly the most minute distinctions of
philosophy, and that to draw graphic pictures
for the popular mind. His employs both these
powers in this paper. He traces the social DEM
ocracy back to it's source in the abstract
speculations of philosophers. He indicates how
| the State religions have contributed to it, and
suffered from it. He shows how governments
have provoked it to the peril oftheir very exis-
tence. He especially in his account of Lassalle's
agitation furnishes one of the most moving CT
descriptive statements The article has that
unique character, which will make it of equal
interest to all classes, whether their chiefatten-
ton is directed to religion, politics society,"
for all are equally concerned in the movements
