EDITOR GAZETTE. AS there is not much
news to he obtained around here l will
with yonr permission give you the senti-
ments of the people here on various
matters and things.
In the first place your editorial ON Grant
and his hackers, has the right ring if he
could have the American republic c1nver-
ted into an Empire and himself crowned
as emperor with absolute power it would
lust suit his egotism, but we, the people,
want no more big toads to rule over US.
Your correspondent does not hold any
thing against Grant, Conkling 4 Co., be-
cause they are of different political faith
for have always voted with this r+publi
can party. Rule or ruin is their motto
aad believe it is high time that the peo-
pie OF this great and glorious Union should
lise mp iii their might and let all such men
know that we do not need their service nor
advice. We should not keep quiet anf
let political wire pnllers and bloated Mono
poles rule to ruin. And this being my
subject to the next question. the anti monop-
oily movement is gaining ground every day
in this precinct and we realize that our
best AMI truast friend is the o. 2. E. r..

that the city vas startled recently by q
sensation, which for novelty as well as
diabolism, is perhaps unrivaled.
The Hervey Institute is a home for
children whose parents can pay wholly
or partly for their maintenance. There
are generally in the Institute over one
hundred inmates, of ages ranging be-
tween infancy and fourteen years old
and several OF the leading ladies of Mon
treal are managers of the concern.
A quarrel between Mrs Craig, the
matron, and nurse recently disclosed
the revolving story that the matron, for
some time past, had been in the habit
of Furnishing refractory children by ap-
plying mustard poultices to their bodies.
About sixteen Of the children were stat
ed TO have been thus treated. Some of
these were infants, and one little fellow
is represented TO have been so tortured
by this mode of punishment that he set
fire to the children's dormitory in order
to escape from the house and the mus
tard plasters
The children are stated to have been
in some casesso bsd'y y blistered y at they

was maintained in her position.
Legal measures and persona violence
against the matron are threatened by the
parents of some of the children who
have been sufferers by the hearIless
treatment.

Among the paSse myers who landed in
New York by tie steamship Rynland
from Antwerp were Christian kalmbach
and Anna Fischer. The man was by oc-
cupation a miller, the woman a dress
maker. Anna, who is thirty-one years
old, had known Christian, who is five
years her junior, in Belgium. Together
they went to the illage school at Lac
ken, and both were llyers. In May last
hey resolved 10 visit the New World.
On the steamer Ryn and, which lett the
port Of Antwerp on May 10, they took

tentions. They voyaged as man and
wife, but, before reaching Sandy Hook,
their fellow steerage passengers observed
that the couple, who, at the commence
ment of the voyage. had been so loving
and attentive to each other had become
quite cool and reserved in their manner.
AS soon as the Rynland reached her
dock the steerage passengers hurried
ashore and did not wait TO see what would
become of the couple who had attracted
so much of their attention during the
previous days. Anna and Christian part

The woman suffered excruciating pain

Kalmbach was brought 10 the Garden
and was told that Anna could not live
the night through. He looked upon the
pale face and agonized features of the
woman, and then, turning to the doctor,
asked: "Are you sure that che will die?"
An affirmative reply was given. Chris

"Wcll, | will right the wrong, and if you
can get a minister | will marry the girl"
Parson Begermeyer was sent for and he

nuptial knot. The woman's face bright

herself in bed, and, in reply to the pas
tors words, "till death us two part" she
muttered a feeble amen" At ten
o'clock that night he left her bedside to
go to his hone. He returned early on
Monday morning and found Anna still
living. He sought the doctor and
was told that a reaction had get in, and
that in all probability his wife would re-
cover. On Friday he was assured that
all danger VAS past and that in few
days Mrs. kalmbach would be discharged
from the hospital.

CONSUMPTION.
Important to the Public as wei as tho
Medical Profession.

Halrs JoHrnal 9f HealtA, referring to Con-
sumption, makes the following important
statement
consumption usually begins with a
slight, dry cough in the morning, then, on
going to bed, getting more and more fre-
quent, with more and more phlegm, increas-
ing debility, thinness of flesh, shortness OF
breath, and quickness of pulse. In fatal
cases its average course is about two years
hence the Importance of arresting the dis
ease at as early a stage as possible, and the
sooner rational means are employed for
this purpose the greater the chance of sue
cess. The disease Is owing to an irritation
commencing in the throat and extending
TO the lungs, so that their action is inter
iered with, and the blood does not receive
sufficient oxygen to purify 1t. The most
marked sign Of lung disease is emaciation;
and the most positive indication of return
ing health is increase in weight.
sospeaks HdRrs journal IF Health. and we
may add that in desperate eases. and, in fact.
In all cases of Consumption, or troubles OF
the throat and lungs, immediate relief may
be obtained and Il permanent cure effected
by the use OF Or. WIN. Halls Balsam for the
Lungs, q medicine known for more than
thirty-fvc years as an unfailiug remedy for
coughs colds. bronchitis and all pulmonary
and pectoral diseases. That the worst eases
of Consumption have been cured by the use
of Halls Balsam has been attested to by the
thousands who have used it, or have been
cogniZant OF its wonderful remedial eflica.

II is forbidden any householder to take a
young man into his dwelling Without
permission of the civil and religious mag
istrate of the quarter. Before this is
granted the lodger must undergo q severe
inquiry, which takes into account not his
personal reputation only, but that of all
his kindred. The landlord, moreover
must display his ability to have this
young stranger waited on without offense
to morals-tha is, without employing his
female servants or the female members
of the family. If the bachelor be rich
enough to occupy house, or to rent "un
furnished chambers" he cannot possibly
obtain that simple privilege unless he
show that woman of good repute lives
with him therein. Those who can pro-
duce blameless mother or sister have
no difficulty, when the Identification has
been thoroughly established; even an
elderly aunt is admissible. But il

probably be the fact that slaves are still
to be purchased by those who have cash
enough. But the cost is very high the
merchant would not deal with young
