Italy In Gotham.

OF all the changes which have taken
place in New York under the eyes of the
present generation none is more mark
cd than the tremendous growth of the
Italian element This element was very
small twenty years ago, and nearly all
the Italians then here were of the better
sort, speaking in social sense. They
included business men, number of
musicians, some artists, and u few
doctors. It was not until after the war
that the multitude of all sorts began to
pour in. Now they swarm all over the
thickly-populated parts of the city. The
Sixth and Fourteenth wards, once most
ly Irish, are largely Italians to-day.
They have overlooked into the Fourth
ward. too, and are getting into the
Tenth. To make the matter clear, l
may say that these four wards have
Chatham street and the lower Bowery
as their main thoroughfare. All the
way from there to Harlem the Italians
are found in cheap tenement quarters,
and in Harlem itself, on the east side,
they are so numerous that considera-
BILE section goes by the name of Little
Italy. Their way of living, whether up
town or downtown, often invites the
attention of the health department, but
it does not appear that the mortality
among them is any greater than among
other people in the tenement sections.
These children of sunny Italy, whether
men or women, old or young, can evil
IDENTITY stand great deal of dirt, foul
air, and decidedly bad food-a good
deal of which comes out of the esh-
barrels. But nearly all are industrious,
and there's some compensation in that

Our New Year Resolutions,

We have catered upon . new
year, and the thought Is fraught
with a double aspect. We congrat.
ulate ourselves and our readers MP.
OH { he success of the past year, our
present surroundings aud our hope
for the future, AMI yet, We know
not whata year may bring FORTH
The year that We have just passed
through was marked, IN At least
one particular-thc death OF 30
many of our older citizens. One by
one they have passed away until
there are but few remaining land
marks that bind us to the past his.
tory of this county. The solemn re.
Election, what will VIC witness this
year, must strike the mind OF every
thoughtful man. To some 1t will
bring joy and honor, to others sor
row and, perhaps, dislonor. To
some, it is ushered in with great
hope. that is destined to DO blight
ed before it's close. TO others its
coming is forecast by a heavy cloud,
that will, ere long, give way to the
silver lining anu the sunshine that
is to follow. To some it comes, sand
will go, without thought of It's
presence, or the surroundings at
tendant upon il. Toall, its coming
should be u time for reflection and
rctrospection; time to think OF our
past weaknesses and of the amends
to he made in the future. 1t should
be time to mature good purposes,
and tho year should he spent in
living mp to them. Let US all enter
upOn the duties of the new year
With renewed energy to prosecute
our respective callings, in the most
en,erprising manner. Let each fol
himself determine to he a bee IN
the great hive Of humanity, and
contribute his portion, TO the sue.
cess of the community. Let las so
live and act that, should We live
to see another New Year, wo shall
have no cause to regret the lost op.
portuni,ies OF the year that We have
passed, and, If not, that our con
duet and example may be cherished
by those who will love our memory,
and that We may enter upon u Hap
py New Year in eternity.
