THE DECLINE OF NEW CIJT/Ns
The ca uses of the decadence of New
Orleans it is no difficult matter to de-
termine- crevasses, epidemics there
were fifteen of them in twenty-seven
years the low water Twelve feet) at the
mouth of the river, and the prejudice
existing against manufactures and me-
chanical trades as degrading. In the
matter of health it is somewhat startling
that the early settlers of New Orleans
were wont to boast of its salubrity that
before 1876 yellow-fever was unknown,
and that until nineteen years, between
1859 and 17SS, the population of New
Orleans increased 81 per cent. with
out immigration, whereas to day,
so DIR. Jones assures us, it would rapidly
decrease, as the deaths largely exceed
the births.
1t is encouraging to notice that we
now fully understand the evils which
have reduced New Orleans from the
fourth to the tenth position in the list of
American cities, and are now endeavor-
ing to correct them. That the depth
OF water at the mouth of the river has
been increased so as to accommodate the
largest vessels that we now appreciate
the value of manufactures, are doing all
In our power to develop them, and have
actually doubled our products in ten
years and that we are devoting all our
spare time and money to the improve
ment of our sanitary condition, with
wonderful results, as shown by the de-
crease of our annual death-rate from 81
per 1000 before the war to 25 per ], ZOO
today. Mr.. Cables book tells the
melancholy story of how New Orleans
lost the chance of becoming the greatest
city in America-an opportunity once
within its grasp; it will help us, we
hope, to turn back much of this lost
trade, prestige and prominence NeaO

CURTOSITIES OF TR4DE.

The demand for eye-stones has fallen
off very largely, but they are kept still
and sold in considerable quantities. The
eye-stone will clear the eye. There is
no doubt about that, but its movements
are regulated by its shape and by for
nation on the fiat side or base of the
stone similar to a blade in a turbine
water-wheel. The whole resembles a
shell just begun-before the cavity was
formed, if shells were so formed, but
are not. The stone is composed of lime,
and vinegar or any acid by its action
upon it causes motion. The stones are
found on the seashore on the Pacific
coast. Sailors gather them by the quart
and vend in trade centers. The price is
10 cents.
Bookstores are also called for, not
the kind known to seal rings and sleeve
buttons, but glass stones or beads of the
color of blood, dark red. These are worn
to prevent the nose-bleed, although the
old plan to prevent, namely, to keep the
nose out of other persons business, is
in use still and works well. With a
string through the glass bead and the
string around the owners neck the La
bility to nose-bleed is removed. The
bookstores, some of them, come from
Germany.
Rattlesnake oil will unlimber Joints
afflicted with certain lamenesses. as all
other oils or preparations will. It is
called for often. and the buyers may get
rattlesnake oil and they may not. Il is
said to be business of considerable i'm
portance in North Carolina to capture
rattlesnakes and from the fat to produce
the oil. At all events, rattlesnake oil is
sold, and it is supposed to cure marvel
ously.. Skunk oil is another cure all for
certain maladies. --Providence (R. II

REVENUE RECEIPTS.
A comparative statement has been pre-
pared at the treasury department showing
the revenues of the government for the
first eleven months of the fiscal years 1882
and 1888. It is as follows: Eleven months
ending May 80, 1882, from customs, $780,
SS0,089; internal revenue, $133,322, 582;
miscellaneous, $34, ASP, $50. Eleven months
ending May 81, 1888, from customs $780,
49,, 1866; internal revenue, 133,710,993;
miscellaneous, $50, 729,054. This shows a
decrease in receipts of tire present fiscal
year to June 1st of $7,173,94O. For the
first quarter of the present fiscal year the
receipts were about $5,000,OO0 in excess of
the receipts of the corresponding period of
the year 1881. There has been gradual re-
duction since that time, however, which 1t
is estimated will amount to nearly $4,000,
600 by the end of the next fiscal year.

The Foreman Murder.

Special Telegram to the Globe.
INDIANAPOLIS, June 13.-The Foreman
murder mystreyis no nearer solution now
than at any time. The grand jury
adjourned without bill against Milton
Foreman. 1t is probable this terrible
tragedy will go unrevenged by the law I'M
til such time as the principals who shared
the spoils begin warning with one an
other. It is understood the company issu-
ing the policies will never pay dollar of
insurance. Detectives who have spent
time and money in trying to solve the
mystery report that the trail points closely
and always in oned ERECTION to certain
point but when they reach that point they
are at their wits end and can GO no furth
er. Ever since the murder the neighboI-
hood surrounding Trotter's Point has
been in bad way. Neighbor is divided
against neighbor, old ties have been broken,
and the residents seem afraid to fraternize
one with the other. Meanwhile the old
Foreman homestead stands like desolate
landmark. The place is offered for. sale,
but there are no bidders, and the curse of
Cain seems to be upon it and it's surround
iDgs.

Especial Telegram tY the Globe.
CHICAGO, June Ii "A reporter asked
both Potter Palmer and John B. Drake
what steps were being taken to secure one
or both of the coming national conven-
tious to Chicago, and also whether any &C
ton i'll that direction was in contempla-
ton. Mr.. Palmer SAID that so far nothing
had been done, and he thought that it was
time the thing was being looked after. The
last time nothing was done until December,
1879, as far as the Democratic convention
was concerned, when COM
mittee went to Washington, and
Chicago would have had the
convention if the Republicans had not al
ready decided to come here. He thought
with proper effort there was no doubt that
the national Democratic committee could
be prevailed upon to select Chicago for
1884, and he saw no reason why the Re-
publican convention should not meet here
again, for they had been we'll treated on
former occasions. Mr.. Drake likewise said
that so far as he knew no steps had been
taken to secure either convention for
Chicago. There was greater probability
of the Democratic convention being held
here than of the Republican. and as Mr..
Palmer was Democrat he ought to take the
initiative.
