house teeming with people No one will
raise hand or a cry to save her, and
stranger still, they never call in the
police until the poor wretch is muir
dered outright. Another CRYING evil is
the enormous number OF infanticides
which in New York ranks far ahead of
the cities Of the old world. The coroner's
Office shows in 1873 that there were 10
Gases Of infanticides in this city; in 1874,
ll2i in 1875, lO2; in 1876, lOl; and in
1877, 80. 1t is generally believed, too,
this list does not represent more than
one fifth the actual number, and the
need for more stringent legislation is
apparent. The crime ranks amoug the
fashionable practices OF the day. An
other cause of death to infants is opium
or some narcotic which is given to the
babe by its beggar parents 10 excite
pity on the Tassers-by for the little one
asleep. The Medical Society has re-
solved to use every means in its power
to break up the business Of the physi-
clans guilty OF criminal malpractice,
aud 10 secure a better enactment Of the
laws in regard to infantieides. The diff
Guilty with framing aud executing laws
on the subject is that it is almost im-
possible to prove from examination
whether the child is born alive or not.

That my fellows should assist;

aDost thou not know. deluded one.
That Adam Smith has clearly proved
That 'tis self interest alone
By which the wheels OF life are moved
aThat com petition is the law
By which we either live or die

Why then, should thy wants supply?
And Herbert Spencer's active brain
shows how the social struggle ends.

'Ihe weak must die. the strong survive:
Let's see who'll prove the hardest hIttl>t:
SO if you wish to keep alive,
Prepare 10 prove yourself the fittest
"lf You decline the test 20 make.

What could do but yield the point.
Though conscious OF no logic blundcre
And as Quaked in every Joint
The tramp departed with his plumber.
