Packing of Human Beinps.

The cellar population of New York city is 6 source of incessant disease and crime And with the more respectable class of poor, who occupy the better kind of tene- ment houses, the packing of human beings in those great caravanseries is one of the worst evils of this city. It sows .pesti- lence and breeds every species of criminal habits. From 10000 tenement houses comes 73 per cent. of the mortality of our population, and 1 have little doubt as much as 90per cent. of the offenses against property and person.
 Overcrowding is the one great misfort- une of New York. Without it we should be the healthiest large city in the world, and great proportion of the crimes which disgrace our civilization would be nipped in the bud While this continues as it does now, there is no possibility of a thorough sanitary, moral and religious reform in our worst wards.
 Few girls can grow up to maturity in such dens as exist here and be virtuous Few boys can have such places as homes and not be thieves and vagabonds.

One More Good Indian.
Tombstone Epitanh.l

A letter from the Custom house de- tails the murder of two Mexicans who were coming up from Sonora last Saturday, with load of mescal. They were attacked near the southeast end of the San Jose mountains by small band of Apaches, both killed, their two horses stolen and the mescal de- stroyed. One of the braves, however, became so full of the fiery beverage that he was unable to go with his companions when they started for a spring in the mountains. A short time after the enactment of the tragedy Mexican herder, of the Elias ranch, rode up to the spot, and seeing his murdered countrymen and drunk en Indian, dismounted and, although possessing no arms except an ordinary sheath knife, he with this cut the In dian's throat and scalped him. He had barely finished when he was fired on by one of the Apaches, who had evidenly returned for his drunken companion. The herder rode as rapidly as possible to the custom house and gave the alarm. The guards or Mexican soldiers immediately went to the spot, but the Indians had gone in the mountains and have not since been seen or heard of. Col. Forsyth who was in from Ft. Huachuca last Thursday says that he saw the scalp and there is no question but it was that of an Apache. The herder should have a medal and pen sion.
