great DEAL and the construction of houses
framed with view to joint occupancy

our SIDE The city of Paterson has just
adopted regulation with regard to the speed
with which steam trains shall pass through
its streets thnt is of importance Three
railways run through that city which
carry passengers to and from their
business in New York every day.
The regulation now made forces SO slow
rate of movement as to make very
great difference on the whole time of trains.
Five miles an hour is the limit of speed or
twelve minutes for every mile. The line
on which the Erie passes through that city
is about three miles long and the time
therefore is thirty-six minutes for distance
that ought to be covered in six or seven
minutes. BY this movement, therefore, half
an hour is added to the regular time OF
every passenger train that goes through
Paterson. Dwellers III the country who
live above Paterson and who formerly
passed three hours every day in the cars
will now pass four or move into the city.

For the purpose Of presenting both sides
in the debate about hanging we print two
letters advocating its retention for capital
crimes. The first proceeds on the theory
that terrible physical agony is q commend
able accom- animent of executing the death
penalty, by way of Furnishing the criminal.
The second deems the ignominy which at
taches to hanging wholesome feature to
preserve, and advises, il we understand it
nal to induce coma before he is swung off,
1t is sufficient reply to our first named
correspondent that no is advocating
torture and, what is worse, tor
ture at the unequal discretion of
q multitude Of sheriffs. If it really
is advisable to make the destruction Of
criminals very agonizing why not restore
the rack and the wheel, or burn or boil
them to death, Us in ancient times, either
ofthose methods being much more painful
thnn simple strangulation Our other
correspondents recommendations of en-
ploying professional executioners, expert
in their business, and of lethargizing their
subjects, are more consistent with modern
taste and sensibility. Undoubtedly in
public opinion hanging is an ignominious
mode Of death compared with many others.
From that motive military law admin
listers it to the spy. In Utah, where
convicted murderers are given ON option
between death by the halter, by shooting,
and we believe also by poison, there was o
conspicuous instance few years ago of the
eager choice of death by firearms, in the
case Of Elder Lee, the conductor of the
Mountain Meadows massacre. We are dis
posed to concede to the advocates of hang
ing all the weight which fairly belongs to
this argument Of ignominy. But we do not
think that it amounts to much. The real
ignominy consists in the crime, not in its
punishment, whatever that may be. As to

mark until it has been used long enough to
have acquired value. While, then, the
owners of valuable trade marks will have
no reason to fear, nor would-be infringers
to hope, that the entire trade mark system

not be denied that the judgment of the

Sauce for the Thanksgiving Turkey

Sauce for the Thanksgiving Turkey.
Notwithstanding DR.. Franklin's praise of
the turkey as the national bird of America
it is rather dry bird to eat unless it is
cooked skilfully, and skilful cooking is
not a universal art in this country. Turkey
as it will be served in thousands of COM
Portable homes tomorrow, will need sauce
to make it relish. Popular usage COM
mends cranberry sauce as the most succu-
lent, but there is better one STILL 1t
is 10 give turkey to poor
neighbours family, and think how they
are enjoying it while you are eating
your own. There is no difficulty about
finding such neighbor in this city.
A majority of the inhabitants of New
York live below Twenty-third street The
population below Canal street is more than
a hundred and fifty thousand. There are
tenement-house blocks on the east and west
sides near the river where more people
dwell to the acre than in any part of Lon
don. If you do not know any of your poor
neighbors in these localities then give the
duplicate turkey to the managers of some
of the charitable institutions who do. Try
this receipt for sauce to make Thanksgiv-
ing turkeys relish. We warrant it.

ton to an unhealthy degree, and VIII be
likely to do so in future. Not long hence
the specie will be brought into gen.
eral use. The effect of the present
and prospective redundance of the cur
repcy is manifest in the transactions of
the Stock Board during the last three
months, which are said to be the largest on
record. one-fourth of which are estimated
to have been based upon stocks which pay
no dividends. The increase in the market
value of many classes of bonds which have
heretofore been considered almost worth
less has brought upon the market also q
food of shares of mining and other corpo-
rations, many of them fictitious. The neces-
sares of life. as we'll as articles of luxury,
have sympathized in the upward move-
ment, and their prices, if not already too
high. are likely soon to rise beyond rea-
sonable limit"
Portentous words of official warning In
spite of an extraordinary and perfectly
legitimate demand for money in moving
the heavy crops of the year there is an ac-
knowledged redundance which stimulates
all sorts of unhealthy speculation and gives
high market value to fictitious and worth
less property. This is the incipient stage
of perilous imitation. Mr.. Knox adj
mits that it's tendency is to grow
worse and worse as the boards of i'm
ported gold flow out into circulation.
"The influx and accumulation Of large
amount of specie" he says. ''inay thus re-
suit in injury instead of benefit. The pay
ment by the French nation to Germany of
five thousand milliards of francs brought
about an unhealthy rise Of prices and de-
ranged the business Of the German EN-
pire."
We regret that Mr.. Knox, with this clear
perception of the present evil and the grow
ing danger, has shrunk from On intrepid
statement OF the remedy. There is but one
effective antidote, and that cannot be too
soon applied. It is too obvious for formal
announcement; it requires not SO much
financial sagacity rs political courage to
apply it. The thing to be done for the
business salvation of the country is to
crush the new and rising monster of inha-
ton by retiring and cancelling the legal
tender notes and letting the abundant and
accommodating gold take their place in the
reserves of the banks and in general circu-
lation. The greenbacks have had their day
and done their Office; the time has fully
come for making them part OF the funded
debt.

The WEATIrER.-When the centre of the dis
turbance, referred to in yesterdays HERALD as
moving over the lake regions, approached the
ST. Lawrence Valley its energy decreased
and the pressure within it rose. 1t is now
passing into the ocean off the Nova Scotia
coast. and by this afternoon all traces Of its
influence will have disappeared. The barome-
ter is highest over the South Atlantic States.
1t is above the mean in all the districts east
of the Mississippi West of that river an
other fall has commenced, owing to the
movement Of depression on the eastern
slope of the Rocky Mountains. Light rain
and snow showers were experienced in the
New England States and the central valley
districts. The weather was cloudy during the
early portion Of the day throughout the lower
lake regions, Middle Atlantic and New England
States, but it cleared up rapidly. Elsewhere it
was generally fair. The temperature rose in
the eastern and southern sections of the country
and fell slightly in the upper lake regions and
the Northwest. The winds were fresh to brisk
in the lake regions, Middle Atlantic and New
England States and light elsewhere. The
storm predicted by tho HERALD Weather Bureau
to arrive on the British coasts yesterday In now
being experienced. The weather in New York
and its vicinity to-day will be colder and clear.
Tomorrow it will be slightly warmer and fair.

The school Question in New Enelan.

Archbishop Williams, of the Roman
Catholic archdiocese of New England, is
brave and learned prelate. If the report
we print elsewhere is true, concerning his
address to his synod OH the subject OF
education, we regret that we cannot in
clude prudent discretion also among his
virtues He is alleged to have instructed
his subordinate ecclesiastics to organize
parochial schools forthwith in every parish,
and to have given his sanction to
Withholding the sacraments from all
Catholic parents who shall persist in
sending their children to the free public
schools afterward If this is so it precipi-
tates bitter religious discussion through
out the Eastern States which is too sure to
be carried into politics and to result in dis
cord among the Catholics themselves.
Many of the prominent Protestant clergy
men are eager for this fray, as was evident
in their selection of themes for the sermons
preached last Sunday from Boston pull
pits. Nor is il sure that the Archbishop
will command ON undivided support
from Catholics. On the contrary, there is
reason to believe that large, intelligent
and courageous party among them dissent
from the policy which is imputed to him
and deprecate it's consequences. There is
no complaint on anybody's part that the
public schools of Boston are not unsec-
tartan. Indeed, Vicar General Byrne, of
the New England archdiocese, is re-
ported by the Boston newspapers as sub
stantially admitting that fact on the very
day before they printed the announcement
of the scheme Of his superior. Therefore
the Archbishop's purpose-supposing the
announcement to be true-is not to redress
any grievance, but to precipitate the en-
forcement of policy. The abolition Of
Father Scully's Sunday school in the Cam
bridge parish, where all the trouble began,
is significant circumstance in this
connection, for the only construction il
will bear imports intention to constrain
Catholics to resort to the parochial schools
for religious instruction for their children
by cutting off the previous facilities which
supplemented the free public hoolsystem.
But this is policy for which the New Eng
land Catholics are no more prepared than
are those of New York. 1t is impossible for
them to organize system of parochial schools
adequate to compete with the existing free
public schools in facilities for good educa-
ton aside from religious training and
common sense revolts against threatening
parents with ecclesiastical censures if they
insist upon securing the best possible
secular edncation for their children Mt the
public expense and supplementing it with
doctrinal religious training in parish Sun
day schools or at home.
