The London Pail Mall Gazette says:
Some medical men who entertain very
decided views as TO the extent TO which
alcoholic drinks contribute TO increase the
death rate OF the country have been star.
tied by the fact that in the last report OF
the Registrar General, issued by DR.. Farr,
'the highest authority on vital statistics" !"
the deaths from alcohol in England and
Wales in 1870 are set down as ,12O only,
including 469 from delirium tremens,
whereas Dr. Norman Kerr, in paper re.
Gently read by him before the Social
Science Congress, put the whole
mortality, direct and indirect, trace trace.
able to the abuse Of alcohol, at no
less than l?O, 900, an estimate, enormous
as 1t Is, in which DR.. Hardwicke, who had
also investigated The subject, concurred.
This discrepancy Is attempted to be ex.
planned in paper which was read by DR..
Thomas Morton before the Harveian
Society on the 2lst OF last month, which,
with the discussion that followed it, will
be found fully reported in the Medical
Pres and Circular OF the 4th OF December,
The explanation suggested by DR.. Morton
seems very natural one, DR.. Farr could
only deal with the returns which were be.
tore him, while medical men brought
face to face with the individual facts on
which these returns are based know how
small a proportion OF the deaths really
due TO drinking are certified under such
headtngas intemperance. DR.. Morton has
gone behind the returns" and with the
assistance OF many medical friends, who
have ransacked the Counterfoils Of their
certificates OF deaths, and reported to him
how many OF them could be fairly set
down as caused by drink, wholly or par.
TALLY, and applying these averages TO
the number OF deaths from ali causes be-
tween the ages Of % and 75, brings out the
result that OF the l0S,G7S deaths from all
causes no fewer than l4.l0l were wholly
due to alcohol, plus 23,7OO partially due
to it-in oil, $1,000 alcoholic deaths be-
tween the ages Of twenty-five and seventy
five. Doctor Morton, in conclusion, sug-
gested that the society, following some
former excellent precedents when com.
mittees were formed on the subjects OF
contagious diseases and infant mortality.
with very satisfactory results, should ap-
point committee to follow out the lines
OF inyuiry by which the whole truth may
be elected and placed beyond doubt.
This was agreed too unanimously. So we
may now hope that an approximation at
least to the truth on the subject will be
arrived at.

All the Western cities show, in their re.
ports larger business for 1873 than for

in special items in some cities, due to the
decline Of an interest in one place and its

is exhibited in the bank returns. The

The late Caleb Cushing was a remark

The late Caleb Cushing was remark
able man in various phases Of character
He was one OF the most thorough goinl
men Of the world that this country evel
produced. He was deeply learned as 9
lawyer, scholar and literary mana poll
tician, diplomat and courtier-a mill
tary man, business man, and phil
osopher. All the qualities that could
fit man to shine he possessed in
an eminent degree. And yet, although
much in demand for the public service by
reason Of his great abilities and vast learn.
ing, he had no hold upon any party, and
had as little share in moulding or leading
public opinion as any man OF his time.
The reason was that nobody had conf.
dence in his sincerity. 1t was Of him that
the famous lines were written many years
ago
"Genral CuShIngs mighty smart man;
Hes been on every side that promised place or pel
hut consistency still was part Of his plan;
Hes been true tOOne paTty-that was himself"
We saw Caleb Gushing preside over the
famous National Democratic Convention
that adjourned from Charleston, S. c., and
met in Baltimore in 1860. No man ever
presided over more turbulent body OF
presided more brilliantly. We saw him
secede with the Sou tn (although from
Massachusetts) from that convention and
80 into the Secession Convention that
nominated Breckenridge and Lane. He
and Ben Butler were two OF the
Mephistophelean aiders and abettors
of that dire movement. They went
with secession to the verge Of the
precipice, and yet were among the first Ia
offer their services to the government
against it. They played it as a game Of
politics, just as Butler played Communism
for the Governorship OF Massachusetts
this last fall.
With all Of Cushing's great talents and
wonderful accomplishments, the London
Times will not say OF him, as it did ovel
poor Horace Groeley's grave, that she
died in great honor and was most genu.
