Complaint From Fair Haven.

A CO1n pla1nG From faIr k1AVcHs
 To the Editor of the JOURNAL COURIER:
 We have read for few weeks past 8 great deal about the Water question, whether or no it was best for the city to purchase the wa terworks, but have another Water question I would like to bring before the public. It is the water and mud which the people of the Eleventh and Twelfth wards have to wade through on Gainesville bridge in going to and from their work petition was presented to the Board of Common Council for pave ment on both East Chapel street and Barnes vile bridge AS matter of course 1t was re- ferred to the ttCommittee on Streets" Their action was watched closely by many citizens of old Fair Haven, and to their surprise they were obliged to read in your columns that the Gainesville bridge part of the matter was tabled, or, as much as to say, Wade through mud, water and slush another winter, you Fair Haveners, you are of no account.
 We have talked with some of our city fa- thers about the matter, and they tell us that the city has not given up it's title to the land filled in on either side of the bridge and therefore they will not force those who pos sess the property to pave.
 This is fine state of affairs. There are from three hundred to five hundred persons who are obliged to cross the bridge from two to four times per day for their daily bread, and they walk on good concrete pavements until they get to this tunnel, and then they are obliged to get through as best they can. All that we have to say is if the city owns the property, take it, and if those who pos sess it own it, keep it, but in either case give us pavement. FAIR HAVENERs.

Mormon missionaries sent to the South work chiefly among ignorant people in iso- lated places and there is little generally known about their progress, but as a matter of fact they are making an extraordinary number of converts" Southern Virginia alone has in the past few months contributed over 300 persons to the Mormon ranks, and consid- erable numbers of recruits have been got in other districts. The force in the field con sists of Elder John Morgan, president of the southern mission, and twenty preachers, and Is of course thoroughly organized and well trained.

A WISE DECISION.

The voters of New Haven decided yester- day, by a majority of 1864, not to add 8 large amount to the city's debt in order to buy that which they do not need. This deci- sion was not unexpected. In fact it would have been very surprising if the taxpayers had been so blind to their own interests as to vote for the purchase in sufficient numbers to carry it. We believe the future will amply justify their decision

The average production of Spanish vine yards is set down at 450,OOO.00o gallons, of which the province of Catalonia produces one fifth-the sub-provinces of Barcelona and Tarragona alone yielding in 8 good year more than 70, 1000, 900 gallons. There are no means of estimating the annual consumption of wine in Spain, but it is put at 10 gallons per head of the population, or less than half of the consumption in France; while with regard to the exports they have gradually been rising from about B, ,OOO, 900 gallons in 1868 to nearly double the quantity in 1878. Within thelast three years the export of Spanish wines to France has undergone such great additional increase that it may safely be put at 90, GOO. .0OO gallons. The imports of wine are very small, being little more than 1OO,- 900 gallons, and consist chiefly of French clarets and champagne.

The second annual international confer ence of the anti-vaccinationists has just been held at Cologne. The prevailing opinion of the congress was embodied in the following statement: ''1- Smallpox, when nationally treated is not relatively dangerous disease. ?. Vaccination does not afford immunity against it, but on the contrary, tbeing itself an infusion of zymotic molecules, lis an excit- ant of it. 8. Vaccination not infrequently inoculates syphilis and other maladies much more dangerous than smallpox, as the virus is never free from the fisk of such contamin- ations" The report of the convention con- tains also the following: "The official returns of burgomasters in the cities of Leignitz, Lu- beck, Dusseldorf, Cologne and other places demonstrate the constant priority to attacks of smallpox the vaccinated over the un- vaccinated-a fact admitted to be true of in- fants by Dr. Thilenius, the leader of the pro- vaccinators in the German imperial parlia- ment." Among other proposals approved by the congress was the petitioning of the vari- ous legislatures to make vaccinators responsi- ble for evil consequences attending upon the operation. An executive committee was elect ed for the ensuing year, and resolutions were passed agreeing to continue the international congresses until the compulsory vaccinatio7 acts are abolished.

A topic of much interest in the latest re- port of the Massachusetts Board of Health is intermittent fever. Concerning the progress and extent of this comparatively new disease in Massachusetts 8 great mass of informa-
 ion is given in paper by Dr. J. F. Alleyne Adams, of Pittsfeld. The salient facts are that outbreaks of the fever have occurred at intervals of generation in the towns lying along the Housatonic and Connecticut rivers, viz, between 1793 and 1799, in 1886, and in 1870 that the latest formed part of visita- tion which Conn ecticut received by way of New York in 1850, SO that the fever was twenty years in crossing this narrow State that in the past ten years it has reached North Adams and Greenfield, Mass, but has not crossed the border into Vermont or New Hampshire that it is of very infrequent oo- currence in the eastern part of Massachusetts that it is usually associated with water courses or bodies of water subject to fluctuations of level; and that it's intensity corresponds measurably to low stages of water caused by drought. It is also clear that however favor able may be the local conditions there is 9 something imported (from the aouth) which has made them fever producing now and not

The Stockton Herald tells Of the re-
markable preservation Of a corpse, as fol-
lows: A singular case Of preservation was
brought to light last week at Lodi. Two
years ago Constable Dougherty OF that
village died OF consumption, and his re-
mains we're inferred at the Lodi cemetery.
A few weeks ago his widow died, and there
not being room enough in the lot where
his remains were, the relatives decided to
obtain q new lot and to have his remains
disinterred and placed beside those Of his
wife. The gentleman who laid out the re-
mains Of Mr.. Dougherty and assisted in
his burial, also took them up. On open
ing the coffin it was discovered that the
body had not in the least decomposed.
When inferred the deceased had q short
chin beard and his hair was cut close.
Now his beard was several inches in length,
and his hair had grown until it reached be-
low the shoulders. The nails on the fn
gers were Of considerable length. His
face was perfectly natural. except that
there was q slight abrasion on the left
cheek. We are not informed whether OF
not careful examination Of the corpse wa
made. II 1t was only viewed through the
glass Of the coffin 1t is possible that . fun.

The Union Guards annual excursion
and picnic will take place at the italian
ranch on Saturday and Sunday, the eth
and 7th Of next month. 1t will be q great
affair. The Ruby Hill Mining News gives
the following as the programme:
The prize Of 500 for the best rifle team
Of twenty men from Eastern Nevada will
call out some of the crack shots Of the
Centennials, while two prizes-one a $40
medal, which is now being made in San
Francisco, and $40 in coin will cause the
baseballers to rustic.
The ladies will nave an opportunity to
test their skill in archery and foot-racing,
and the gentlemen will also have a trial at
the latter. There will also be q 'fat mans
race" sack-race, jumping, etc.
An immense dancing pavilion, with O
roof to protect the dancers from the sun,
and the floor covered with canvas, will DO
erected.
From parties who have visited the
grounds we learn that they are in the very
best condition, and calculated to afford
that enjoyment which persons attending Q
picnic are supposed to seek.
There need be no fear Of lack Of trans
portation. Mikel Bros. will run every
available team, and the Eureka livery
stables, together with many private par
ties, will turn out all their teams.
The charge Of transportation to the
grounds. together with the price Of admis-
sion, will be 50, SO that a days enjoyment
can be had at a trifing expense.
Refreshments Of all kinds and Of the
best quality will be served on the ground,
and there will be no reason why people
should be hampered with lunch baskets.
Officers will also be on hand to preserve
order; so give your wives and babies, or
sweethearts, a little recreation and take
them to the picnic.

Christian religion, published in the last
North American Review, has created some
thing Of . demand for that standard
periodical on the Base Range. The news
stands have been enjoying something Of .
boom in the sale Of the North American.
Readers differ as to the merits Of the argu-
ment according to bias. The orthodox re-
ligionist is ready to bet his bottom dollar
that Judge Jere has totally annihilated the
thinker is ready to get mp and swear by
the eternal that there isn't 9 greasy spot

which stand side by side In the North

lief. as well as by those who are non-be-
levers. Both disputants are hard hitters,

unless they do this he will be compelled to

future, as his present pay just about covers
will stand in with him and assist in re-
building the fume, as it would be a dire
calamity to the town to dispense with
street sprinkling during the summer
months. Double his pay for one week.
