ALTHOUGH the nominal season for flood
and freshets is long since over, the residents
OF the Mississippi valley are still being af-
iicted with disastrous superiority of water,
which endangers their lives and works sad
havoc with their crops, their stock and their
dwelling houses. This time the direct cause
of the mischief, which has been done In the
vicinity of ST. Louis, is the breaking at sew
eral points Of the dams and levees which are
trusted to keep the unruly and eccentric
Father of Water between due bounds. 1t
must be clear to every one that the embank-
ments of the Mississippi are entirely made
quate to their purpose, and that their recon-
structon upon an extensive scale is work
which cannot be begun too soon or pushed
forward with too much energy

LORD RANDOLPH CHURCHILL has started
new hare to hunt in his attack upon the
Khediye, and the pertinacity with which he
makes his charges would seem to indicate
that he really knows some things which
others have more than suspected. The true
history Of events in Egypt would hardly af.
ford the government of Great Britain
enough glory to border pocket-handker-
chief with. Enough has already cropped
out to tarnish the gliding OF the Wolseey
victories.

PRESIDENT ARTHUR's reply to the delega-
ton which waited upon him to invite the in
tervention of the United States to prevent
the continued transportation to this country
OF Irish people who are so poor that the Brit
ish government has to pay their passage and
give them few dollars for pocket-money
-was aracterized by that happy tact and
sound judgment which he has SO often ex-
hibited. OF course it would not have done
for Mr.. Arthur to have taken the justice of
the complaint for granted, and there and
then to have committed himself to any radi-
cal line of action. He wisely enough direct
ed attention to the fact that the grievance
presented is covered by the existing law,
and in assuring the delegation that the law
would be strictly enforced, he really did all
that could properly be required Of hin. The
protest ag ainst ''assisted emigration" is
well founded, but there is no need of max
ing this grievance an international question

IT is extremely gratifying to learn that
the kind Of speculation in which Mr.. Peter
McGeoch and his associates distinguished
themselves has practically been brought to
dead standstilI in Chicago by the conse-
quences attending the recent furry in lard.
AS regards the McGeoch house, the situa-
ton proves to be even worse than was at
first imagined. The receiver estimates the
liabilities Of the broken firm at S. 900. 900.
and he declines TO express any opinion as to
the value Of the available assets. This is
bad for McGeoch and bis creditors, but SO
far as it tends to discourage and prevent the
speculation in provisions, which has always
been feature of Chicago enterprise, 1t is a
good thing for the public. Spectators of
the McGeoch order are little better than the
pirates Of internal commerce.
THE Russian sport Of Jew-baiting has ex-
tended to other paris of the continent, and
the Swiss are now engaged in this refresh
ing pastime. Fortunately for the Hebrews,
The other Governments of Europe are more
potent to prevent outrage than that of Rus
sia, and there is not much probability of Sc
rious damage to Hebrew persons or prop
aFty In Western Europe.

GLASS FOR FLOORING.

In many of the business houses in
Paris and especially in those of which
the cellars are used as offices, glass
is now being extensively employed
instead of boards for flooring. At
the headquarters of the Credit Lyon
nais, on the Boulevard des Italiens,
the whole of the ground floor is paved
with large squares of roughened glass
embedded in strong iron frame and
in cellars beneath there is, on even
dull days sufficient light to enable
the clerks to work with gas. The
large central hall at the offices of the
Compton d, Escomte has lately been
provided with similar flooring; and
it is said that although its prime cost
is considerably greater than that of
boards, glass is in the long run far
cheaper, owing to its almost uuIiml-
ted durability. The material is cast
in slabs about eighteen inches square
by an inch and half thick and
transmits a blush light.

A physician who writes for the
Continent about the curative powers

that it is better for consumptive to

Portable. than subject himself to the
discomfort of hotel life, or to the
greater Inconvenience of camp.
lie says that the camp cure may be
fairly tried by sleeping on ones own
housetop. Another medical man
replies that the summer conditions
of spruce forests are eminently taN
vorable, ard consumptives have re
covered in the most surprising way
living under canvass 10 them, where
the air imFre grated with the healing
carnations peculiar to the nondecid,

sumptives whose lungs crave toe
salt air of the ocean ; others to whom
the dry atmosphere Of Colorado is
infinitely soothing; and others again
who are benefited by the climate Of
Florida or southern California. To
prescribe Florida for one person
might mean death, while il be went

The Master OF China.

LII Hung Chang, who has been put in
command of the troops in the southern
provinces of China, is now exactly SIX
ty years of age. He lived in obscurity
till 1858. when he was employed as
secretary by Tseng Kno Fan Gather OF
the Chinese Minister to England, who
was tn IN Geueralissimo of the Chinese
army, and was engaged in suppressiDg
the formidable rebellion of the Tae-
pings. In this post he displayed Sc
much talent that Tseng soon had him
promoted to the Governorship of the
province of Kiangsu. the principle
theatre of the military operations.
Soon afterwsrd Suchou, the chief
stronghold of the rebels, surrendered
to Major Gordon, who promised the
rebel chiefs that their lives would be
spared. Lii, however, the moment he
had them in his power, put them to
death, to the intense indignation OF
Major Gordon. who, it is said, would
have inflicted the same punishment on
LII himself if he could have found him
at the time; but that astute individual
kept out of his foreign subordinate S
way till his anger had time to cool.
Since Tseng Kno Fans death, in 1872,
Ii has been practically master of the
destinies of the Chinese empire. All
the foreign relations of China are spec
iallv under his control,
