A Ae.WOrker EyOOSrd,

For some weeks past Catholic priest
of Erie, Father Maloney, has been
claiming to have performed various
miracles but little short of raising the
dead to life, and accounts Of many OF
them have been copied by the press all
over the country. Many believers were
found in these tales. In consequence,
Father Maloney has been ovcrVhelmed
with visitors from abroad, coming to be
cured Of various diseases, and he has
also been receiving from seventy-Iive to
one hundred and fifty letters daily fer
months, in which il is stated there were
sums ranging from fifty cents to ten
dollars asking for prayers and cures.
An investigation has been had, in con-
sequence of which Malouey has fled.

The apparently needless harshness, not to
say brutality, with which Michael Dayitt has
been treated by the English prison author
tiles since his arrest seems to have led to a
reaction. as far as his case is concerned,
among the less prejudiced and better inten-
toned classes in England \ convicts dress
could never degrade Dayitt in the eyes Of
his countrymen, or in the eyes Of the world,
and probably he himself did not care
about the evident insult sought to
be offered to him by putting OIL
hint the dress worn by the stack
hrer, the garroter, or the wife-beater of the
English convict prison. Mr. Labouchere
and other English Liberal members Of Par
lament are exerting themselves in the laud-
able work Of trying to induce Sir William
Harcourt to have Mr.. Dayitt treated as polit-
ical prisoners are treated in every civ
iIizcd country III the world. It is
strange that Government presided over
BY Mr. Gladstone, who made tile world ring
with the story of the sutferings and indgni-
ties with which Silvio Pellico and his fellow
prisoners were treated. should have toler-

TIE mortality report for this city for JAN

peculiar atmospheric conditions Of late which
were highly unfayorable to good health.
THE deaths during the month were 01g,
against s1f the preceding month, anti III in
January Of 1880. OF course the increase of
population during the year will properly ac-
count for q certain increase i'll mortality, but
scarcely to the extent that has actually oc-
Cured. Comparativestatistics in other cities
and towns will undoubtedly exhibit CORE
spending increase, because the unfayorable
conditions have not been confined to Chicago
Or this section Of. the country. The only
warning conveyed is to be found in the largo
number OF zymotic diseases, chief among
which were diphtheria, Group, and scarlet

JUDGE ToCRGEE, the author Of the 'Fool's
Errand," made one good point that has been
generally overlooked in his answer to Mr.
Royal. He gave the South number OF hard
+raps, but also credited it with self-respect for
its own traditions and institutions. sin
this he says, "the South is in strong and
happy contrast with the North'.

lytical days, when everything is undergoing
revision, 1t is to be expected that even the
