PettIcoat Government.

An old Admiral says that the order of Sec
rotary Chandler relative to the wives of COM
manding naval officers of cruising ships has
come none too soon. 1.-THE truth is" saws
this old Admiral, 'that at present the wives
of the officers of the cruising ships determine
the policy of the squadron, and not the Navy
Department. Congress appropriates money
for cruises. Under the present petticoat
system the ships do not cruise. 1t is the
hardest possible thing to get the ships away
from the leading ports. The commanding
officer and all the principal officers of the
Pacific squadron, for instance, with head
quarters at Yokohama, have their wives at
Yokohama. The consequence is that the
ships, although ordered for a long cruise,
can seldom be got away from Yokohama
more than few days at time The same
is true as to the South Atlantic squadron,
with headquarters at Rio. Secretary Chand-
Ter, by this order, win carry out the policy
of Congress, which when it appropriates
money for cruises expect to have the cruises
made and the interests of American COM
merce protected?

AT the last session of Congress an &C
was passed to prevent the adulteration of
tea by those heather Chinese and other con-
scienceless Orientals by whom this popular
herb is supplied. There was great need of
such an act, for it is notorious among we'll
informed people that this particular COM
modify has for some years past been most
extensively and deleteriously doctored; but
1t is not encouraging to hear that, as 30
often happens with Congressional legisla-
ton, doubt has arisen in regard to the
construction of the act, and that the Attor-
ney General is of opinion that it does not
authorize the organization of special de-
partment to carry out its provisions. If the
quality of the imported tea is to be tested by
any Custom-house official not an expert,
upon whose shoulders this additional bur-
den can be laid, the new law will hardly be
very effective.

THE New York Tribune says that the re-
port of strike among Western Union oper-
ators cannot be confirmed. A prominent
member of the Knights of Labor said that
the organization, which is secret, embraced
10000 out of the 10000 telegraph operators
of this country. At the last annual meeting
of the delegates of the brotherhood at Chi
cago in last March, the executive committee
was authorized to take what action it
deemed necessary to secure an increase in
the wages of telegraph operators. According
to a newspaper recently started for circuIa-
ton among telegraph men, and to the per-
son referred to above, discussion is going
on among the brothers, over a plan for
building telegraph lines under co-opera-
tive stock company, to be formed by the OPP
orators themselves. 1t is conceded, howev-
er, that no prospectus of the alleged scheme
Sin contemplation is yet in type.

ONE of the most valuable reforms recent
ly Instituted in New York promises to be
that instituted by the Board of Health in
the appointment Of fifty physicians as SAN
itary corps, to make domiciliary visits
throughout the poorer quarters of the city,
to render medical attendance to the sick
and afflicted, and make proper representa-
ton to the authorities in regard to relief or
sanitation. The conditions of life in the
poorer tenement houses during the heated
term are frightful, as is shown by the rec
ords of infant mortality and the greatly in
creased death rate, but no special efforts
have heretofore been made to afford relief.
Those who fall in the street or are prostrat-
ed by the heat are carried off to the hospital,
but these are but the smallest portion Of
those who need help, and unless they re-
ceiye it in this way many suffer and die
without the least aid or attention. This
corps can but do great deal of immediate
good. but its best effect should be in calling
attention TO the squalid and pestilential hor-
rors of the poorer quarters, which ought
not to be tolerated in any civilized city, and
which make a healthy or a moral and decent
life almost impossible.

NJ PAUL LEROY BEAULrEu, in the Jour
nal des Debats, insists that the finances of
the French nation are in very bad state all
round. He believes that the national bud
get of 1884 will show a deficit OF $50 ,000, 600
francs, and that it. is to be feared the bud
get for the same year of the city of Paris
will also show large deficiency. The ex-
penses of the city of Paris for the year 1884
M. Beaulieu estimates at 263, 200, 600 with
out reckoning unforeseen contingencies,
which he declares will be considerable, and
for which a provision of only 100000
francs has been made in the budget.

THE torrents of rain which are now delug-
ing Central Europe have already done a
great deal of damage to the vines and to
what ought to be the ripening crops, and
fears are entertained that if they continue a
repetition of the floods Of last September
and October will occur. As this rain means
snow at anything over 60OO feet, the passes
from Switzerland to Italy are by no means
agreeable routes at the present moment,
and travellers coming over the Simplen and
Splugen do not give very cheering accounts
of their voyages. The weather is also keep
