"NExr DOOR NEIGHBoR.'

THE HERALD this m orning surrenderss
several columns to society news, gatnereo
by a large CORPS of correspondents iioH
points far and near. What the newspaper
of to-day prints may be accepted as what
the public demand. The managing editor
performs the duties of literary purveyor
and then selects froIh the long menu just
what he knows the readers crave, and THIS
demand for information concerning one
next door neighbor" is healthy one.
There is nothing morbid in this TASTE no
scenting for scandal and no wish to peer
into the arcana of the HOUSEHOLD, but iaud-
able curiosity as to the movements sue
cesses or failures of one breathing
the same air that we do. We read
the announcement that JAMES BROWN
left last evening for Waukesha," etc, with
far more interest than we follow the move
ments of some world.famed name, and
why2 We know Brown, and his homely or
shapely figure fills our minds eye as we
trace the lines. "There was pleasant So
cial gathering at MRS. SMITHs," will be Pc
rused with attention, when we would yawn
over the long drawn out account OF the
queens drawingroom. We move in the same
circle as does MRS. SMITH, and the people
at her gathering" are of the same sort.
II this be selfishness. as a misanthrope
would allege, the world would be better of
If there were more Of. it. Many
man has been halted on the
brink of some yawning precipice
by the thought that he must bid farewell
forever to the sunny world in which he HIS
basked. The tempter has been banished
from many a woman's side by this potent
influence. The informal nod and the CHEEKY
greeting have nerv0d many heart sick
unto death with the strife of this busy
world, and success has been written where
failures blank would have figured were it
not for these unselfish evidences of fellow
ship. The doctrine of total depravity is
blown into smithoroons by single sigh Of
regret, that almost anyone will
breathe when he hears OF the
misfortune Of even slight
acquaintance. The space given to chroni-
cling these trihes light as air might be filed
by lengthy philosophical essays, or by
scientific or religious dissertations but we
question whether more benefit would &C
crue 70 mankind.

Now that Dallas has determined on a
general system Of sewerage and drainage
the work goes steadily on, and link after
link in the chain of sewers and drains will
be Kept clear Of all h. use waste and surface
water and also sub-soil dampmess. We
note the progress OF some ofthese works, as
follows: Stone, the contractor on the Mag

unfortunate enough to have that days
work washed out BY the heavy rain OF
Thursday, and since then has tnrDed his
contract over 10 SandsrsOn, who will pro-
coed and finish IL as soon as
possible, Sanderson, the contractor on
the Murphy street sewer, IL ready 10
commence laying brick Monday morning
on the south side Of Jackson street and will
push the work 10 the south side Of Main
street. This brick sewer will be feet In
diameter and IS feet long, commencing at
Kenf'e corner. on Main and Murphy streets
and running south 70 the south side Of
Jackson street. Edward y. Doyle, con
tractor on the pipe sewers, has finished Elm
street from Jefferson street on the west side

Of 2 300 feet, Of which \ go feet was 6-iDch
