The Bill Allowing Forty Days Wages 10
 Be Exempt From Attachment.
 To the Editor of tie JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 Please allow me small space in your col umns to speak concerning a matter which should be enlarged upon by some one more competent than myself. But as no other person has spoken, will simply say that the bill introduced by Colonel Robertson into the House of Representatives is, in my opinion. manifestly unjust to all property holders and all classes of merchants and traders. To al- low forty days pay of any laboring man to be exempt from attachment is, to say the least. offering an inducement for laboring men to become dishonest. The petition, you perceive, is signed by over fifteen hundred, and is presented by the principal mAnu- lecturers of the city, all of whom wish to avoid the trouble of factor izing processes. Now let us ask MT. Rob- ertson for the names of those petitioners, and I will show not few among them who do not own one dollars worth of real estate and who owe their landlord for rent, the gro cer, merchant. shoemaker and milkmen. Are these the kind of men that should make laws for us ]? This petition Is nothing more nor less than Mir. Sargent's bill which he tried to get through the Legislature last year. His name does not appear in this, but one of his agents does, and the people expressed their condemnation of it then, and they do now. Because so many signed the petition it does not follow that it should become a law. Should the Legislature pass this law it will compel every man who works for hy- ing to pay in advance for everything he has. Better abolish all law for the collection of debts. EXPERIENCE.

The Naples correspondent of the London DdiIg NelrS writes ''The late increase of activity of Mount Vesuvius produced a very interesting phenomena of eruption. The other day a stream of lava broke out at the base of the new cone due east, and the prin- cipal vent being thus left empty, the sides fell iA At the same tiRle the lava produced an immense chasm about 100 feet wide, at least 120 feet deep at the centre, extending two-thirds down the mountain, and becom- ing shallower at the bottom. The whole of the new cone, therefore when you look at the mountain from Naples, has disappeared, leaving the peculiar crag at the right side the highest point whereas during the last two years it was far overtopped by the constantly increasing ash-cone of erup- i ton. At the bottom of the chasm have men toned flows the lava, bridged over by the cooling crust. An eyewitness, who was up the mountain the other night, descended along the edges to the lower part of the chasm, and standing on the covering of crust | where large hole had formed could watch the lava running ss fast as @ mountain stream down a sort of tunnel fof about 300 | feet, where it turned to one side, and he | could follow its course no longer. It was i'm | possible to descend to the bottom of the chasm at any part higher up, for the sides are constantly crumbling, large masses of old lava crashing down, and great deal of the debris of the destroyed cone has also been carried by the lava down to the Val d'Infer- no, while other portions fall into the central vent, and are being ejected in all directions, | together with immense quantities of ashes. The lava divides into two streams, one due east toward Ottacano, the other northeast in- i to the valley between Vesuvius and Somma, where it is stopped by the side of the latter mountain.
 sVesuvius is constantly growing, and the lava seems to promise to continue flowing. The whole of the northeast and east side of | Vesuvius is full of Assures, narrow but deep, and the edge of the large old crater being now broken away at that side, and therefore the lower point, it is to be expected that all

From my window did not discover the sudden disappearance of the lit tie cone about 300 feet high, which I had watched growing above the rounded edge of the mountain during the last four years, till the afternoon, when the weather was bril- iantly clear, and WAS utterly surprised, on happening to look out, to find that the little hill, which during eruptions had looked st night like red hot sugar-loaf, so sprinkled was it with the falling, rolling, incandescent stones, was there no more.

HECKER'S
PERFECT BAKING POWDER.
A FAIR TEST.

To the Editor of the Journal & Courier,
 Sir:-The contract for supplying the United States government with seventy-five thousand (75, ,OOO) lbs. of Baking Powder during the en- suing year has been awarded to Hecker's Perfect Baking Powder, it having been tested by Dr. Ed- ward G. Love, analytical chemist for the government, and recom- mended by him for it's excellence and because it contained a higher percentage of gas (which means it will make lighter bread and bis cuit) than either the "ROyal'' or the other cream tartar baking powders which he examined. The samples analysed by Dr. Love were furnished by the government com missiOners, and were without the manufacturers label or name, and designated with a number known only to the commissioners
 Itwill thus be seen that when Hecker's Perfect Baking Powder submitted to an impartial test it's superiority is acknowledged, and the popular verdict so emphat- ically expressed in it's favor is fully sustained,

The Rev. Herrick Johnson of Chicago preached a sermon against the theatres and was accused of not knowing what he was talking about He answers the charge by going over the record of the four leading Chicago theatres for 1881, and showing, by extracts from current criticism in the news papers, that only an average of one perform ance in eleven was clean in both the play and the costumes of the players. In this summary he claims that he classes as unclean only those that are unquestionably so, aside from any religious view of the matter.
 s' There are clean plays and clean players, |" this clergyman admits, "but they are like Gratiano's two grains of wheat hid in two bushels of chaff.' Plays must be sensational to be effective; must be a representation of active passions to be popular. There is a whole class of plays that turn on criminal passion between the sexes, while murder, ab- duction, marital inidelity, injured honor, and revenge abound in the drama.
