THE DEATH RATE In New York city
for July shows very marked increase,
and this, too, In the face Of the absence
OF epidemic disease Of any kind. The
total deaths foot up 4,260, against $3.50
fur the corresponding month last year,
and 3,109 for the July preceding that.
The sanitary superintendent says there
10 no special disease to which the In
crease could1 be ascribed. The New
York papers, however, account for the
increased mortality on the ground that
more people have remained In the city
than usual, that whilst tho arrivals Of
immigrants have been much larger, many
of whom have remained In the city, and
no doubt succumbed to the climate. In
addition, the mortality list includes all
who die in the public institutions, and
the deaths there have not been few.

ago, at a meeting of the old Hudson

Walden, who had been settled in the

CT can tell the brethren that if they
think any sort of minister will do for the
West they are mistaken. 1t won't do to
send second or third-rate men there"
Mr. Arthur was ON his feet in a mo.
ment, exclaiming Mr. Moderator, ]
