By the way, we have heard several
inquiries lately, and from time to
time, in regard to the long promised
report of the Howard association for
1879. Considerable funds and sup
plies we're received and disbursed
during the late epidemic, and rs a
matter of course the public expects a
report from its officers. This was
promised ard expected some time ago.
Such a report is due to those. who con
tributed, as we'll as those who handled
the. money and supplies senthere from
abroad. Let us hear from the officers,
if couvenient,a an early day. There
is doubtless some good reason for the
delay, but outsiders do not know what
it is. A detailed report, showing
exactly the amount of money on hand
when the epidemic began, the amount
of money and supplies received since,
the amount paid out including all
salaries and what is on hand, would be
mighty interesting reading.

Rev. Eugene Daniel RemeiBs in
Memphis,

1t has been quite generally known
thatthe Presbyterian church at CO.
lumbus, Ca, lately called Mr.. Daniel
to its pastorate. The matter came
before the Presbytery of Memphis on
the 18th inst, when, after a full
hearing of all parties concerned, that
body unanimously decided that his
relations to the First Presbyterian
church, in this city, should not be
disturbed. This was very gratifying
to his church and congregation, as
the most cordial relations had sub
sisted between pastor and people for
more than five years.
Doubtless this whole community
will hear of this conclusion With
pleasure. Mr. Daniel performed his
whole duty through the epidemics Of
1888. He is not a man of strong
physical frame; but neither faith nor
courage failed him in those dreadful
days. He will long be remembered
by the citizens of Memphis with sen.
timents of high regard.

1t has been determined by the
school board of st. Louis to add to tie
course of studies in the public schools
Of that city a series of oral Lessons in
etiquette. In accordance with the
directions of the board the superin-
tendent has drawn up a syllabus of
topics for instruction in which the
teachers are directed to have a few
Of the best readers in each room read
by turns five pages of the manual of
etiquette, the teacher to lead a con
versation with the pupils on the top
les" Tie lessons laid down in the
syllabus are as follows General pre-
cepts; complaints; dress carriage
and bearing conversation at the
table riding and driving at school
and rdles Of behavior prescribed by
George Washington. The general
idea Of the st. Louis board is an ex-
cellent one, and tits to be hoped the
educational authorities in other cities
will not be slow to follow in the same
line. As a rule lessons in good man
ners, than which scarcely anything is
more important 20 young persons, are
utterly tabooed in the public schools.
the assumption being that behavior,
like many other things, shO lid be
taught at home. But wheD, as In The
majority Of all our large cities-and
for that matter, in many OF our
smaller ones-the parents are far more
ignorant than their children, how is il
possible thatthey eau teach them The
rules a1d regulations of polite life2

seen upon every hand. Whether or
not the public schools are responsible
for it, the ll.behaved boor, educated
as well as unedacated, is to be met

Spco.a dis patch to the Enqu.rer.l
WASHINGTON, February 23.-Cin-
c%luuati got away with the Dational
democratic executive committee, and
secured for i.self the next democratic
convention without much of a fight.
On the first ballot it had fourteen
votes, Chicago ten and st. Louis four.
On the seccld ballot Cincinnati re-
ceiVed twenty four votes, which was
four more than the number required
and then, on motion Of Prince, OF
Massachusetts,, the effort TO secure
Cincinnati was made the unanimous
voice Of the committee.
1t was a clear-cut, anti Tilden VIC
tory, but only in the sense that the
Tilden men were fret in favor oil
ether Chicago or st. Louis. The
men discla;m the ideathat Tilden
ought to feel that the selection of Gin
%cinpati is iniUical to bis interes. but
the fact that alt OF the Tildeu iahu-
ence was against Cincinnati makes ii
fair guessing to say that the selection
OF Cincinnati was a victory not at all
favorable TO Tilden.
Tonight the gossip of tie town is
as to what or whether there is any
Significance in the taking of the con.
vention to Cincinnati. While it is
claimed that Tildeu has sustained a
defeat, a great many think that if he
is not to be the nominee he is for
Jewett for a second choice. Upoues.
tlonablv the influence Of Jewett &C.
cured the convention for Cincinnati.
aud there are not a few who think
that Tilden was a secret ally. If he
was he played his game with such a
shrewdDess that he has left but little
scent behind except in such quarters
as presume to know everything ald
seldom know anything.

How the Sewage Question is
Treated in Liverpool.

A New York paper says: Accor-
ding to our English adyicos elsewhere
printed, the city of Liverpool has at
last succeeded in solving the problem
of the disposition Of its sewage,
which has been for many years one of
the most puzzling questions tina. It's
corporation was called upon to con,
slider. The new sewage boat, to
which reference has already been
made in the Herald, is, it seems,
an entire success. In her re-
cent trial trip she carried
two hundred and fifty tons Of street
refuse to a point at sea twenty three
miles from the dock. The time msde
both ways was remarkably fast, and
the Liverpool authorities are copo1at-
ulating themselves upon the fact that
the new system will effect avery great
saving 20 the municipal treasury. We
advert to this Liverpool experiment
because the difficulties in this ouos-
ton that beset our sister port
are almost precisely similar to
those which confront our own
authorities. The street COM
mission is supposed to carry the street
s%weepings to the sea, but it is an uu-
deniable fact that the greater portion
Of the refuse is dumped in the bay.
thus impeding navigation and tending
to destroy our commercial facilities.
When the crews of the miserable
scows that are employed for this pur-
pose are arraigned for tie
violation of the law the
excuse invariably is that they
were in danger of their lives and hid
TO throw their cargoes overheard or 90
down with them. The new SEWAGE
boat in Liverpool is, it seems, entirely
s%eaworthy. In view of the great in
terests involved it IS to be hoped the
street cleaning authorities will profit
as far as possible by the experience Of
the Liverpool corporation.

An Outside View.

The Mason Call of this week says
The doctors Of Memphis ara being
lectured by the papers of that city for
attempting to suppress the mortuary
reports. There is no doubt but what
grave suspicious have arisen in the
minds Of the people outside Of Mem
phis in consequence of this attempt
to smother up facts which belong
to the public. People will learn after
a while that it is the business Of a
newspaper to give the news, and that
nothing can keep them from it.
The Memphis papers tell Us that
scarlet fever exists in that city. but
to what extent they do not state ex-
actly, though they have done as well
as they could underline circumstances.
Had the board of health continued to
report the weekly mortality many
groundless reports which have been
circulated would not have been
dreamed Of, and timid people would
have slept sOundly. There was but
one death from scarlet fever last week
out ofa total of thirteen. The other
deaths were caused by consumption,
pneumonia, diarrhea; and other dis.
eases not contagious.
Our intelligent contemporary is
mistaken in saying that the papers
do not state to what extent
exactly the scarlet fever prevails in
Memphis. The LEDGER at least has
published daily reports ever since the
9th Of February, when we discovered
that it existed here. The doctor;
are required by law to report all the
cases of this kind hat they attend and
we have reason to believe that most Of
them comply with it. We'haye heard
sensational rumors that there wer,
more cases than returned to the boarc
OF health; but upon trying to trace
them up, and find names and locality
1t has always proved another case o.
three black crows. We are glad t.
be able to assure our readers, bott
In the city and country, that the scar
let fever here is ola very mild typt
and that very few case, have proved
fatal. We only know of two or three
deaths out of about se%venty.fve case,
recorded since December 10th. W,

gathered, and not much will be over
