MAXIMUM RANGE OF THE THEIR.
MOMETER FOR THE YEAR 1878,

When medical gentleman con.
denim popular climatic resort, they
should give definite and reliable
facts and figures to corroborate their
statements. But some writers on
climate are so biased in their conclu
sions regarding their own special 10.
calities, that they become mentally
"cablned, cribbed and confined" and
bend facts to suit their peculiar
views. They remind me of remark
made by Southey regarding Macau-
lay, Bringing to task faculty-the
faculty of believing without a rea.
son."
In his investigations, Dr., Jones
overlooked Russia where the 'Ice
King is" in all his majesty and
strength, or else he would have re.
terred to the following figures In
Russia. from 1857 to 1859, the gene
raj mortality from phthisis was 164
in the 1000. In the most Northern
provinces, that of Archangel, the
mortality was 1870 in 1000, and in
Wologda, 204, per 1,O00.*
At page PA, DR.. Jones asserts
sthat "North Sweden and Norway
are likewise almost exempt from
disease, (phthisis) which carries off
one-tenth of the population of the
tropics" According to the eminent
authority, Dr. Lombard,t the NOR.
tality from phthisis in the Northern
towns of Sweden is 147 in 1000;
in those in the center, l25, and in
those in the South, 1872, Norway
presents the same high mortality
from piIIhfsis, 15v IL I, ,0oo. II Den
mark the mortality from phthisis is
122 per 1000, nearly the same as in
London, where it is 121. At page
274, DR.. Jones states that phthisis
carries off one.tenth of the popula-
ton in the tropics" If we are to ac-
cept this statement as fact and the
figures of the eminent DIR. Lombard
as reliable, DR.. Jones sis out of his
latitude"
In the language Of d.. Copeland,
"As to the climate of different coun-
tries, and as to the influence of situa-
tion and locality, either i'll favoring
or in preventing the prevalence Of
phthisis, our knowledge is altogether
imperfect Much that has been as
serted on this subject is, more or
less inaccurate, the inaccuracy being
often in proportion to the dogmat>
ism with which the matter is
treated"
Under existing circumstances it is
difficult, if not impossible, to arrive
at any positive opinion regarding the
prevalence Of phthisis in any zone or
altitude; even at the best, an ap-
Proclamation to the truth is all we
can expect. In forming an opinion
OF the adaptability OF any climate for
the treatment Of phthisls, we should
consider climatic factors, weigh we'll
the mortality from phthisis, ascer-
tain the effects of climate upon inva-
lids who have resided there for
years, and obtain The views of exper-
fenced aud intelligent physicians
resident in such climates.

TIE "Co-EDUCAToRs'' of the
sexes have been left at home by
our school voters, And those who
favor the admission of the negro to
the schools will not number as many
as they did some years ago; so the
Republican and its Radical colabor-
ers will have nothing to crow over.
Our citizens don't seem to relish any
radical change in their public school
system just yet, and hence they con-
cluded to leave them in the hands of
those they could trust whom they
knew to be opposed to either of the
changes that the Republican hoped to
have effected by making the election
a political issue, in violence of the
general usage. We are told by our
morning contemporary that the po-
litical complexion of the new School
Board will be l3 Democrats to I Re-
publicans. So much for making an
issue.

WHAT CHANCE will the farme

WHAT CHANCE will the farmers
Of Kent and Sussex counties have in
convention where each county will
be out-voted two to one? Such we
believe is the relative numbers OF
the Republican Convention to as
semble at Dover on Thursday, the
9th instant. When the "Wilming-
ton roughs get their backs up" they
will not stop at small matters. 1t
will then be found that they did not
go to Dover "to be out-voted." Such
has been the experience of the Re-
publicans of Kent and Sussex since
New Castle, with high hand, re-
solved to fix the numbers of all Re-
publican conventions or to hold one
themselves. So humiliating was the
spectacle, that the Kent Democrats
openly declared they "pitied the
poor fellows" from Kent and Sussex,
who had thus been robbed of all
chance in the Republican conven-
tions.

EDUCATING INDIAN CHILDREN

EDUCATING INDIAN CHILDREN
A good work in this direction is being
accomplished at the Carlisle Barracks.
There are now one hundred and eighty
scholars, of both sexes, at the Barracks
at Carlisle. The progress made it is
said is quite rapid. In Il sermon be-
fore the Protestant Episcopal Convo.
cation, by Rev. w. c. Levrett, recent
ly, he stated that of these youths thir-
ty-four had been baptised, and we're
attentive attendants at church service,
while four had enrolled themselves, by
confirmation, as members of the
church. These Indians the speaker
said, were attached to the Episcocal
or White Robe church al the boys and
girls call it. The results, in moral
and educational sense, of this school,
have already excelled the expectations
of all, and, the speaker continued, it is
hardly possible now to prophesy what
future good may not result from the
training in Christian and civilized
manners and customs of these wild
SONS and daughters of the forests of
the West, when they, as instructors,
may return to their native tribes
again.

GEN. GRANTS VISIT TO THE MINES
OF THE CoMsToCK LODGE We are
indebted to VIM. III. Newton, Esq, of
San Francisco, for photograph of
Gen. Grants visit to those celebrated
mines. The picture embraces group
of nine persons. 1t is we'll executed
by Taber. Every one of the party
would be as readily recognized by
their acquaintances as we recognize
the likeness of Grant. Each one
carries a lantern. The party consists
of the General, Mrs. and U. s. Grant,
Jr., and servant, John w. Mackey, said
to be the richest man in the United
States, Gov. Kincaid, of Nevada, and
wife ; Mrs. Gillett, wife of the
Superintendent of one of the Com
stock mines, and Col James G.
Fair, of the Bonanza firm, said to be
worth at least $50, 900, 900. Grant has
the only servant in the party, and ht
is made to get on his knees, showing
that his master does not regard the
negro as an equal whatever his politica
opinions are of his status.
