WITHIN the past year movement has
been made, thanks to the Louisville rail
road, by which coal is put into the poor
mans hoHse A. price that is reasonable
and within his power to pay. A company
fer the Manufacture of artificial ice mig ght
accomplish as great blessing in summer
the company selling cheap coal does in win
ter. Artificial ice IL now used al nearly sll
the inland Southern cities except Memphis.
The retail price for it at the South
twenty -thIee years ago was s. per hundred,
now it is 81, or a cent a pound. Here in
Memphis ice sells at 81 per hundred to
dealers, and to consumers for one and half
to two cents per pound. In places as small as
Huntsville manufactured ice is sold at from
one-half to three-quarter cents per pound
wholesale and one cent retail, and good
profit realized. An ice manufactory could
not fail TO be equally profitable here, and
one should be organized in the interest OF
the people, whose health is greatly promoted
by cool water. Ia New Orleans ice manu.
factories pay well, and the m erchants are
70 much encouraged that a number OF them
are about to establish a reirigerating and
manufacturing company and build large
warehouse, to be kept at an average temper
ature OF 40' Fahrenheit, and portions of ii
below freezing point This refrigerator
warehouse will save New Orleans from much
of the loss 10 which it had heretofore been
subjected for want of like accommodations.
The new company will keep the building
cool by means OF artificial ice, made by two
lsrgs refrigerating machines, which will BE-
kept cons antly at work. Is Memphis ripe
for such an enterprise as an ice manufsetory?

JERSEY CITY, N. J., July 10.-Michael
Heart and Jesse Wild, striking freight
handlers, the latter OF Pittsburg, were ar
rested on complaint of boycotted grocers,
who charge conspiracy. Wild and Heart
placed themselves near grocery and admon-
ished customers not TO enter.
The freight-handlers appointed commit
tee to collect relief funds. The strikers in
sist tina. there is a vast accumulation OF freig
at New York west bound and that the east
bound freight crowds the sidings from Jersey
City westward.
While party Of strikers this afternoon
were standing on the corner of Tenth street,
opposite the local freight station OF the Erie
railroad, five men employed at the Grove
street brick-yard came up and asked the cause
of the excitement They had hardly been
told when they armed themselves with cart
rungs of truck standing on the street and
made I dash for the side door of the station.
The invaders first made for few of the
governors marshals who were guarding the
lsborers, and, after taking their clubs from
them, gave chase to the frightened guardians
who had fed toward the Office. Two of the
laborers were oyertsken by the assaulting
party and badly beaten. The police tele-
grsphed for were speedily on the spot and
quelIed the rioting. One brick-ysrd en-

the appropriation for the National Bard oil
Health should be attended by ever buai-
ness man in Memphis, and ihs protest

both houses Of Congress at once ItWould
be impossible TO measure adequsisy the
work done by this board IN Potsct-
ing the South, not only sgaina the
introduction of epidemic disessa but
in preventing panic when one or more
isolated cases of yellow-feyer have escaped
the vigilance and close inspection q the
generally very alert agents OF the sFeral
States or cities. The people, for thls pason,
have confidence in the board and It's i,spec-
tors, and because they slso know thu are
munities. They know, too, that thsf are
watchful and wary sentinels that they VII not
conceal but promptly reveal the presence OF
disease, and that whatever precautions nsy
be necessary for the preservation OF tbspub-
lie health will be advised by them and, 80
far as depends upon them, be carried into
effect instantsneously. Cooperating with
the boards of health of the several
cities and States of the Mississippi valley
the National Board has become a necessity
to the safety of those States, and il must be
continued in the full integrity OF the powers
in money and men which has made il one oi
the best managed agencies of the national
government. Nothing but the petty anG
sPlenetic enmity and Jealousy Of physicians,
who, urged by fancied superiority-pEoies-
sional and social-could have induced such
opposition 10 it as has been manifested in
Congress; either that or an iHexcusable gno-
rance of its merits, the work it has done and
the good it has accomplished, has operated TO
deny to millions of people and many States
the prote ction which at this season especially
they most need. The meeting to-day shoEld
pass an earnest protest and urge upon Con-
gress the passage of the appropriation orig
inslly asked for. Without it the National
Board of Health is shorn OF its best powers
and must discontinue the inspection service
on the river and along he coast.

CiTIzENs of Memphis who recall that part
of the batture once known as Happy Hol-
low, as it was in 1873 when The yellow-feFtr
played such havoc among its rif-rsf popu-
Iation, cannot fail to be agreeably surpried
by the change that has taken place since the
Chesapeake railroad has taken possession OF
it. 1t ia completely transformed. Only enc
or two VI l,.e pnsighfIy huts -engsiP, aud toe
hollow has been almost filed up with earth
from the bluffs that have been cut away 10
make room for the depot buildings Of that
road between Union and Beale streets. Thus
in accommodating the railroads centeEng
here with freight-room at the steamboat
landing, and the Chesapeake with depot
grounds, great sanitary work has been
accomplished, work not only promoiiye OF
the public health, but TO some extent OF
public morals. A very sink-hole OF iniquity
has been filled up, and what was once
-haunt of vice and crime in their vilesi lorns
has been blolted out OF existence. We hope
soon TO be able TO say thst not one hut re-
mains about the landing, which, paved As il
is, and protected against the encro achmsn.s
OF the river, is one Of the safest and best on
the Mississippi.
