Police statistics in New York.

The report Of the police commissioners Of
New York city for the last year contains
some interesting figures 1t shows, for in
stance, that of the 5000 people arrested in
that city during the year on one charge
and another, S., $50 we're unmarried. II the
report had been published at the time the
discussion of the question. whether or not
marriage is a failure was being carried on,
the fact that considerably more than one
half of the persons arrested were
unmarried might have been cited
as showing that marriage is a conservator
Of order and good mora's. Another in
teresting fact shown is that more than one
half Of the persons arrested were Of foreign
birth, Germans, Russians aud Italians
figuring most conspicuously in the report.
The immigration of Ger .Eaas, Russians and
Italians 70 this country is very extensive,
and If these figures are worth anything.
they would seem TO indicate that IL is among
the nationalties named that there is the
greatest need for restriction in immigration.
OF the persons arrested, 81, 600 were between
the ages Of 90 and 30 years, and $500 we're
more than 30 years Old Ga 09i we're males,

VERY Good for Boston.

Some newspapers are disposed to point
the finger Of scorn and ridicule at Boston
because whipping prevails pretty extern
sively in her public schools. With public
school attendance Of 6l,OO0 pupils, 1900
whippings have been administered to pupils
IN the last three years, and on account Of
the whipping practice it is said in some
quarters that Boston needs to be civilized.
If the enforcing Of discipline in the
schools by corporal punishment is an in
dication Of a want Of civilization, q good
many cities had batter relapse into Bosto-'s
civilization. There is nothing that is more
effective than a well-timed and we'll
administered whipping in making a boy,
who is inclined TO shirk his school duties
and disobey school rules, have a proper
appreciation Of his advantages aud knuckle
down to business.
1t cannot be denied that whipping, both
at school and at home, has gone out of
fashion TO a great extent, nor can it be af-
firmed truthfully that the youth of the
county are better, more respectful, or more
to be admired than when the rod was made
to help parents and teachers more generally
in inculcating in our children correct prin-
ciples and forming their habits properly.
A great many parents don't want TO have
their children whipped at school, and if
they are whipped they take them away.
They don't whip them at home, aad the re-
suit is not very satisfactory.
a system verging upon tyranny is not
desirable either at home or at school, but
there are times when nothing else can take
the place of the rod in enforcing discipline
among children. Notwithstanding 5000
whippngs have been administered to chill
dren in the public schools of Boston in the
last three years, the youth of that city ap-
pear to be doing very well. and Boston has
no fear Of losing her reputation Of being
The most cnlturad city in the countrY !

Northern Farmers in the South.

northern arm erS II C9e south
Some Of the northern newspapers say
that the reason more northern farmers do
not come south is because they would have
to learn the southern methods OF farming
before they could farm successfully, and
that they cannot afford to lose the time that
this would require.
There is something il this, but not much.
1t is true that northern farmers, coming
south, would generally be somewhat ignor-
ant concerning the cultivation Of cotton,
rice, and perhaps few other things. and
that they would have to acquaint them
selves with certain conditions of successful
farming in the south, but they would not
need to raise c9tton very extensively. In
fact, it would be better for them if they did
not, and they would be under no
necessity Of conducting a rice planta
tion. They could cultivate in the south
with profit almost anything that they cult
vate in the north, or they might 60 in for
dairy farming, which is beginning TO be ex-
tensively carried on in tie souta, and which
IS being made to pay quite well, or truck
farming, for which they are excellently
fitted, or stock farming, which they under
stand very well indeed. The south needs
more Of these kinds of farming, and perhaps
our northern friends could teach US a thing
or two concerning them that would be 70
cur advantage. Dairy and stock farming
may be said TO be in their infancy in the
south, but the southern farmers who have
engaged in them have demonstrated that
they can be made to pay. The truth is that
the most successful farmers in the south are
those who do not depend entirely upon cot
ton and other products Of the soil fer a liv-
ing, but who engage in just such adjuncts
70 farming as have been mentioned.
The morning news., 1889-05-20

Some newspapers IL both the north and
the south are talking abou, the possible dis
franchisement Of the colored voters. There
is one thing that may be said WITH entire
confidence in this connection, and it is this
If the lored voters are dsfranchised, it
will be the act Of republicans, aEd not Of
democrats The republicans were mainly
responsible for giving the voting privilege
to colered people. They gave it to them
because they thought the Republican party
would be benefited thereby. The Rspnbli-
can party was benefited for a little while,
but now the colored people generally have
lost interest in elections, and many of them
decline to vote the republican ticket when
they vote at all. Therefore, according 70
the republican method Of reasoning, they
must have the yotiag privilege taken away
from them. Republicans may not reason
this way openly, but as a rule they think
colored people should vote the republican
ticket, or be- disfrauchisod.

Health in the South.

A northern man writes to a newspaper in
the south: We cannot go south 10 live.
Malaria and yellow fever prevail there. It's
a very nice place to spend the late winter
and early spring months in, but not the
country TO live in the year round"
If the gentleman in question has been
contemplating moving south, and if he has
been deferred from doing SO because he
thinks the south is not as healthy as the
north, he should reconsider his decision
and should come right on. The south is
just as hsalthy as the north, and perhaps
healthier. One reason why 1t is healthier
is that population is not so dense. An
other is, that there is more general and
even distribution Of the means OF support
ing life, and still another is that the eli
mate is more equab.e.
Malaria prevails to some extent in parts
Of the south, bat the same is true Of the
north. 1t would not be at all difficult TO
find home in any southern state free from
malaria, and in those localities that are not
free from it increasing attention Is being
paid to sanitation.
In the census year of 1850 there were
91,551 deaths from consumption in this
country, and q, PSI from malarial fevers.
Much the greater number OF deaths from
consumption was Of northern people. 1t is
well known that there are more deaths
from consumption in this country than
from any other cause.
Nobody need stay away from the south
for fear of yellow fever That kind of
fever ia not indigenous TO south. There
have been epidsnics Of it 10 few southern
cities and towns at long intervals, but do
not northern cities have epldemc5 Of diph-
