How the Money Goes.

The Memphis (Tenn.1 Avalanche &C.
counts for some of the destitution exist.
ing in that city since the outbreak of the
yellow fever in way which cannot be
very pleasant to some fugitive citizens OF
the place. 1t says that the Howard As
sociarion there has nearly S200O 900 in
hand. the mayor has about $4,000, the
ciuzens' relief committee about $50 900
In all $3.50, 200. "The sum of money Is
amply sufficient to feed the destitute
people of Memphis and the surrounding
country until frost comes, if a few per.
quisites are cut down" The nature OF
these ''perquisites" will be understood
when the reader knowns that they are
chiefly the supplies granted to the ser.
wants of wealthy people who have fled
the town, without leaving any provision
whatever for the support of their depen.
dents. The Avalanche says:
Men worth hundreds ofthousands OF
dollars have left their property in charge
OF blacks, and never provided dollar for
the support. And yet, If the citizens
rehef committee cut off the supplies from
these servants of rich men what in G ods
name will they do? They faithfully
guard the property of their employers
II their employers do not feedkthem the
relief committee must do it. There is no
other alternative. The committee can
not and will not see them starve. The
'old man begins to think there will be
no day of reckoning"
WithsHch things true, the suggestion
that rehef committees should think more
of the poor nearer home, and cease rais-
ing nancy for distant poor people made
destitute in this cool way, is certainly
worthy Of consideraiion.-Bolt Sun.

gone very serious surgical operation,

covery. Mr.. Taylor was seriously indis-
posed last week and IL was not until after
several days of treatment for the wrong
malady that his physicians discovered
the dangerous nature of his disease.
1t was found that he was afflicted with
dropsy, which had already affected the
kidneys and liver. After long medical
consultation IL was decided that a surei-
cal operation would have to be resor.ed
to.
OUT OF PRESENT DANGER.
To this Mr.. Taylor willingly assented.
The operation resulted in the extraction
Of fourteen litres Of water. His reconvales-
cence progresses favorably. Professor
Wins, the eminent German surgeon,
hopes that Mr.. Taylor win rise from his
bed on Thursday next. General sympa-
thy is expressed for the American MIN
lister, who, although shortly accredited

conductor who is charged with having
caused the accident at Wollaston, on the
