The authorities OF the various European
governments differ from the Times on the
quarantine question. and decline to follow the
advice Of that wise journal In their treatment
OF the plague now prevailing in Prussia, and
which is slowly travelling westward through
Europe. They are all quarantinists OF the
strictest type. Instead of waiting until the
epidemic has spread over their countries and
then sending q dozen or two commissions TO
find out how this came about, the Austrian
and Prussian governments have already ap-
pointed Joint commission to study the
plague before 1t reaches their limits, and to
prepare some plan by which its spread into
their domains can be prevented. In addition,
Austria has already declared quarantine
against Warsaw, although the plague Is yet a
thousand miles from that city. The Austrian
government evidently has no fear of losing
the Polish trade; 1t is more Interested in pre-
serving the lives Of Its people,

The New York Sun has discovered that the
coffee we drink is not simple chiccory, as we
fondly dreamed, weak but not Injurious
seed, but that large proportion OF 1t is blue
clay, poisonous compound. moulded Ia the
shape OF coffee seed. 1t Is to be hoped that
the newspapers will cease these alarming In
vestigations into these food authorizations and
Let us cat and drink these poisonous COM
pounds In peace. Since the discovery that
our sugar was muriatic acid and copper,
thousands Of persons have been doing with
out sugar IN their coffee; now they will have
to give up the coffee itself. A very curious
chemical compound is your morning cup Of
coffee Of to-day, mixture OF sslphate Of

The pedestrian mania is raging worse I

The pedestrian mania is raging worse than
ever In the North. There are now some
dozen pedestrians engaged In walking In New
-YorE. Erpoklyn and vicinity. each Of whom
is doing Something Unusual and out Of the
way. An imitator of MAdame Anderson is
attempting to walk 5000 quafter miles In as
many quarters Of an hour; nan mas UNDER
taken to march fifty miles a day Tor two
weeks. and sundry other lunatfg are at
tempting similar feats. There is KSthing
strange In all this-that is. as far as the pc
destrians themselves are concerned. It %
true that their legs get swollen, their feet
blistered, their health perhaps seriously in
jured, but the reward is worth the trouble
We do not mean the glory and renown. but
the money they take In. OLeary's week 3
tramp cleared him $4,000 net; Bertha Won
Hiilern made $4,000 from her walking within
month; Madame Anderson $1,000, and Cam
pana even, although he was beaten, cleared a
nice little sum. The pedestrian mania may
be counted on to last as long az It continues
to pay.

Edmu nds' constitutional amendments reso.
buttons do not appear to fare we'll In Congress.
For three days In succession he has sought
TO get his resolutions before the Senate for
discussion, and every time has been voted
down by large majority. Even the Repub.
licans seem unwilling o consider the matter
The Democrats held caucus some time ago,
to determine what course they should pursue
relative to these resolutions. This caucus
would seem to have been superfiuous, as there
appears TO be little likelihood Of the Edmunds'
resolutions ever being brought up In the Sen

prMocnAr are Enjoying the spoils Of victory

DEMOCRAT are enjoying the spoils Of q victory
won by them.
And what does this company mean by
spolls2 Behold It's moral obliquity! Having
donated money for purposes OF bribery, 1t
claims that 1t has done SERVICES which the
State should acknowledge and be grateful
for; which should entitle it to honor and
power In our midst. On the other hand Ii
designates contract, awarded to the DEMO
Graf by the highest officers OF the govern
ment with the appreciation OF the people, to
perform certain necessary work for reasona-
bic and specified prices, "sPoILs." In other
words, according to the moral idea Of this
gambling monopoly, OF this huge COW which
fed and fattened the Radical party with
It's rich and abundant milk, bribery, political
infidelity and chicanery are strictly honor
able and deserve the recognition and applause
OF society, while honest, working and
faithful contractors with the government are
mere spoismen, unworthy OF consideration
or respect. Such Is the crooked morality
which speculate RS In the vices and passions
Of mankind invariably imbibe.
But enough. II the Lottery now coils in
the Democratic nest, it found Its way there
as the serpent creeps through slime and sin
uous paths up to the eagles eyrie. But the
proud bird will not mate with creeping
things, and with beak and talon he rends
the reptile and dashes 1t back into the depths
below.

More rows In the Russian universities.
Perhaps the Russian students have cause to
complain; perhaps the acts of the govern
ment have been tyrannical and oppressive
but 1t does look little unkind that these
students, who are educated at the expense Of
the government should turn against it and
beget riot and revolution. The Gar OF Rus
sa, the flttest example of autocratic rule, Is
paying great deal of money out of his near
ly bankrupt imperial purse to teach these

Berlin statistics show that the hard times
reported as existing In Germany are not at
all exaggerated. 1t is shown that 10000
persons In the Prussian capital live In cellsrs,
that not more than one family In forty has a
house TO itself, that 100000 persons were
prosecuted last year for non-payment OF In
come tax and that in majority Of these cases
the seizure OF the effects Of the defaulters
yielded nothing, and lastly, that more than
10000 persons are now being prosecuted for
having failed to pay their rent. Bankruptcy
and hard times are evidently In order In Ber-
lin. No wonder that Bismarck asks his par
lament for few more laws against free
speech, The people of Berlin certainly have
plenty to talk about. plenty to complain Of.

mony for consideration.
