As the hot days of summer draw near
people are debating the question,
"Wherc shall | 90 for trip?' 1t has
been fashionable for a year or two to
visit the Northern lakes or mountains.
These resorts are very Icasant in hot
weather, but they have serious draw
backs. First, it is very expensive get.
ting there and back again. Then it is
still more costly to remain, as one
should, until Southern frosts; for if one
returns home during the maarial season
he is much more liable to suffer the
effects of the poison than he would have
been had he remained south all summer

various names but no relief, and now
she is restored to us in good health by as

Suicide ana IFS tnuSps.

A scientific person in Switzerland, who
has written book ON suicide, its causes,
pcculErltics and significance, denies the
point which Richard Grant White makes,
that the inclination to sclt-dcstmction
increases with education and refinement,
and claims that moral conditions influ-
cuCc suicide more than social or cconOm-
Icnl conditions. As for religion, Protest
ants seem asyct to kill themselves oftcncr
than Roman Catholics, and still more
frequently than jews in the countries
where the three religions are repre-
scented i'll proportions Of any importance.
Density Of population is without any
apprcciabIe effect; but suicide is more
frequent in cities than in the country.
SO far as individual Influences are con-
ccrncd women kill themselves three or
four times less frequently than do men;
suicide increases with age to the extreme
limit of life; marriage excrts very
marked preventive effect, while cclibacy
and widowhood favor suicide. In
quiries into the motives of suicide
have not brought satisfactory answers,
for it is hard 10 get Mt the truth told
about them, and official reports must be
accepted with reserve. In France,
higher, more generous motives are at
tributcd to women than to men. Ncv

A Moorish Dust.Man.

Two things are de rig,teur in all books
OF Eastern travel; first, the witty disser-
tations on small vermin, without which
no regular book Of travels in any latitude
can be considered complete; second,
loathsome pictures OF the general filth
ness OF Eastern towns, where We are led
TO believe that sanitary precautions are
absolutely unknown. Will it be credited
that one Of the first things TO catch my
eye, as | looked down into the narrow
street of Tetuan from my bedroom win.
dow that morning was downright
Moorish dust-man? There he was, in
flowing robes and white turban, driving
his mule before him, with its capacious
basket paniers. He lifts up his voice in
dismal howls, till the maid.of-all- work
comes forth, bearing the daily ashes Of
her house in large wooden box, which
the Moor empties into his mule paniers
with lofty dignity, and passes on to the
next door In fact, that peculiarly
excellent system known to modern Eng
lish sanitarians, if my memory serves
me rightly, as the Preston Pail Systems
is in full swing i'll Tetuan, and has been,
no doubt, for centuries. The dead dog,
and fostering vegetable refuse (in the
sacred interests Of truth, am forced to
make these unsavory allusions), which,
according to the best authorities, ought
to litter the narrow slit of street below,
are as non-existent as the sickening
odors which ought TO- and undoubtedly
would, accompany them if there; and to
sum up, this most thoroughly Eastern
town of Tetuan is positively place to
live and flourish in, not merely hotbed
of plague and typhoid. Full Of satisfac-
ton at this interesting discovery of the
Moorish dust-man, / was composing
myself to await further revelations Of
Eastern life, when heavy bundle Of
fre-wood projected from the housetop
directly above me came whizzing past
my nose, and induced me to withdraw
hastily from the window. 1t was the
Jewish handmaiden sending down q
mornings supply of fuel to Juanita, the
cook, who stood e1pectant below at the
house door, IemDIe Bar.

Honorable Dealing in Life Insurance,

The Equitable Life of New York stands
out almost alone in its certain and prompt
payment of losses.
Our fellow townsman, Mr.. Thos. M. Sin

through hatchway, and was cut off in the
very prime of lie, had been prudent enough
to insure his life for over $4,000 in the
Equitable of New York. The death occur

thereafter, and before the proofs even had
been prepared. the General Agents in Cedar
Rapids, Rlckel & Eastman, received telc.
graphic instructions that the society were
ready to pay Immediately on receipt of the
necessary papers, which we learn have since
been forwarded, and last week the whole
sum was received here from the New York
Office and paid over to the family. A part

POLICE COURT NOTES.

a number of cases came up before Po-
lice Magistrate Olmsted, several Of which
were rather airy and the defendants were
discharged.
Chief among the yiolators of the city's
ordinances was Mr.. Samuel Taylor, who
was arrested for carrying concealed weapons
and sent to the calaboosc for thirty days.
Taylor is a stranger in Cairo, coming, per-
haps, from some country town like New
Madrid, No, or some other town where
no man is considered man until he has
sent bullet through the carcass Of some
other man and he thought that Cairo was
ditto, but that thought cost Samuel his
liberty forat least thirty days.
One Murphy was brought before his
Honor Judge Omsted for resisting Mr..
Mahanny who was acting in the capacity
of an officer. The charge against him was
not sufficiently substanciated, however, and
he was discharged.
Annie Martin was arrested
for disorderly conduct and was
taken before Judge Olmsted, who, after
duly considering the evidence in the case
discharged her from custody.
Clara Poland was brought before
Esquire Comings on warrant sworn out
by Harriet Deck, charging the said Clara
with using abusive language. Two wit
nesses were introduced by the defense,
both generating Clara from the wicked
charge and hence she was discharged.
