In one section of the world at
least, easterly winds are not obiec,
tionable, and this is in Florida. On
the Peninsula easterly winds are the
prevailing ones in the cold months.
During November, December, jan

stations in East Florida, easterly
winds, east, northeast and south.

servations Owing to the proximity
of the Gulf stream, with its vast
volume of heated water to the East
of the coast, the easterly winds are
robbed OF their harsh and searching
properties which characterize them
in most localities. AS an evidence
OF the influence Of the Gulf stream

even after it has parted with much

its effects in modifying the climate
Of the South of England and France.
However Objectionable easterly
winds may be in other sections, in
this evergreen State they are the op.

Precipitation of moisture in the
form of snow and rain, is subject
worth consideration by the invalid.
In the north and northwest the
presence of snow renders the taking
of exercise a laborious and un-
pleasant occupation and when it
melts and assumes the form OF slush,
walking entails The risk OF wet feet,
colds and infammatory affections OF
the lungs. In Florida, the winter is
the dry season, and rains are intre~

the soil in a majority of places, the
rain is absorbed as rapidly as it tails.

One of the most important factors
O f climate in the treatment of
diseases, and more especially affec-
tons OF the respiratory organs, is a
dry climate and under the bare sup
position that this or that is a dry eli.
mate, invalids are frequently con
signed to an unsuitable locality. By
some peculiar process of reasoning,
the masses have arrived at the con-
clusion that all cold or elevated
localities possess dry climates.
Hence we see advertisements OF san.
itariums, in which All elevation of
200, 500 OF 1000 feet is referred to
as an evidence of "dryness OF the
air." But AN unprejudiced examlna>
tion of this subject will soon dispel
the illusion. To illustrate the sub
iect Of "dryness of air" as depend
ent upon altitude, we will append a

was paid to those portions of Louis

of yellow fever. Maps showing the

belt, with reference TO the Information
OF the insect, have been prepared.
Arrangements have been made to
test the usefulness of tumigation IN

have been made. Professor Riley

is no longer any excuse for loss by
its ravages, and with the result OF

Lord Derby's reputation for caution and
common sense will not he impaired by hir
recent speech before the Iiuddersfeld Cham
Der of Commerce. Ii was an address on the
industrial condition of Great Britain, aud was
marked by cearncss, cOgency and mOden-
ton. The general conclusion which his yari-
Gus analogIcs and comparisons tended TO sus-
tain was one which cannot seriously De
questioned 1t was this: England has not
reached point in its history when material
progress has ceased and material dcradence
has begun. The industrial position of the
country may be unsatisfactory in many re-
spccts, but there is positive increase of wealth
even in the hardest of hard times. The rate
of development may be much slower at
one time than it is at another al
though Lord Derby would have us infer
that Englishmen were not really as rich in
1873 as they thought they were, and, on the
other hand, that they are not as poor in this
year of grace as they imagine; but there is
no retrograde movement-ther is actual pro-
gress in material resources and prosperity.
I'm proof OF this assertion he cites the income
tax returns, the savings bank deposits, and
the consumption Of popular luxuries such as
ten. beer and tobacco, wherein he finds such
conclusive evidence of advance as to warrant
the assumption that the people have this year
n larger amount of property and larger in
come in money or moneys worth than they
had ten years ago. This conclusion appears
to be tolerably safe. Certainly, Americans
will not grudgc philosophical Britons the con-
solatory reflection that, while they are not
doing so well as they used, they are still get
ting on.
The international aspects of competition are
discussed by the great Lancashire peer with
caution. He thinks that England can afford
to despise the commercial riyalries Of CONT
mental nations. They lack what England has
in abundance-coal. iron, masses of capital,
mechanical appliances and trained workmen.
More than that, they lack free labor for. as
Lord Derby well says, labor il not free

The Fusionist Legislature of Maine made
the mistake of its life when it abandoned the
fence around the State House. 1t was at home
there and ought to have remained, no matter
how cold the weather was. SO appropriate was
the place that the members seem TO have
dropped TO it by the instinct of natural selection.
For there is nothing better settled by the ex-
perience and observation of policemen and
detectives than that persons in that line Of
business, whenever they get hold Of anything
by means similar 70 those by which the
FusfoDists obtained possession Of the Govern
ment of Maine, invariably go to a " fence with
it. The first step taken by any detective
of ordinary sagacity, after being put in posses
sion of tho facts connected with the theft
would be 10 look for the stolen Government
at the nearest fence" and that, singulary
enough, is the way in which they described
their place of meeting in the official journal
of their proceedings. Having stolen the Gov
eminent, they did take it to the nearest
fence" and Go follow out the figure, there
they did literally spout it,"
In another sense, too, it was appropriate.
The place of meeting was beautiful symbol
of the attitude of the party on all political
questions, and especially the position of the
Democratic wing of it upon the question of
finance. As between hard money and soft, the
whole party has been fguratively con
{" the fence" for years. Then how the
hearts of several hundred Democratic states
men in various parts of the country, whose
fame consists chiefly in the skill with which
they balance ON the fence, must have warmed
to the FusiOnists when they learned that
the latter we've not only metaphoncally
occupying it, but had literally met
and organized on it. We know that
one eminent Indiana statesman, Mr.. Hen
bricks, whose feet have not touched solid
ground on the currency question for several
years, sympathized profoundly with the enter
prise of the Fusionists. for he telegraphed
them to that effect. But how his heart must
have bounded when he saw that they had
come over to his platform and seated them
selves on the fence.
1t seems a great pity that they adjourned
and moved away. they seemed 50 fitted to
the place. The young man who gave away
the Sophomore fence at Yale last Summer
expressed the opinion, in the course of his re-
marks, that with the exception of the cat moth
ing was more becoming to a fence than the
average Freshman. We suspect that in
the light of the proceedings of the
Maine Fusionists he will have to revise his
Judgment, for certainly, though the Fresh
man may be more ornamental or the cat may
seem more at home ia that position, nothing
ever SO completely and thoroughly Illus

fesses, is not to be lightly spoken Of. Indeed,

" the eyes behind a protective tariff" and
he reproaches them for lacking confidence
"in their own unaided superiority" They
are fighting, however, in their own way, and
do not lack confidence either in their defences
or in their tactics. They know that they have
what, as Lord Derby says, Continental Europe
lacks and England possesses-cOal iron, masses
of capital, mechanical appliances and trained
workmen and moreover, that their labor Is
absolutely released from the dead weight of
CONSUMPTION. They realize, to use Lord
Derby's own phrase, that they are "marked
"out by all their characteristic qualities Tor

neglected in England and national energies are
allowed to go to waste in unnecessary cam
paigns, Americans recognize the advantages OF
