alas. uncommon. The rough-and-tumble slang
whanging of hustings campaign does not
greatly cultivate those graces of speech and
refnements of thought which should character
ize the deliberations of great mifds. When,
therefore, we find worthy example Of tenn
perate and chaste discussion, it is a grateful
privilege to quote it into the widest possible
publicity. The essay which Immediately IN
spires these thoughts is found in recent issue
of "The Times Union of Jacksonville, Fla.

journal-and is in the form OF reply to some
remarks made by General Sherman on the sub
ject of the alleged suppression OF the negro
vote in the South. "The negro" said General
Sherman, "must be allowed to vote. and his
vote must be counted. Otherwise, you will
have another war, more cruel than the last.

The latest reports show that the first stories
spread abroad in regard to the destructive work
of the tornado at Reading were seriously ex-
aggerated. In the confusion and alarm Incl
dent to the collapse of the silk-mill it was
thought that fifty or sixty persons had been
buried in the ruins. This number was reduced
30 thirty-three on Thursday and yesterdays
Investigations resulted in showing that prob
ably no more than seventeen lives were lost.
Even at that the calamity is sad enough, but
it loses some of its horrors in the light of these
developments. Nothing has yet been made
known that tends to prove that the collapse
was due to any weakness in the building itself.

The Yantic's experience with yellow fever
is very like that of the Boston. There are
now three cases on board the Yantic, which
reached here late Oh Thursday, and one of the
victims, Lieutenant Miles. is in precarious
condition. The other two patients are likely
to recover, and it is believed that there is little
probability that any one else on board will be
attacked. Ono death occurred during the voy-
age from Hayti to New-York. How the fever
was contracted is mystery, as no direct ex-
posure is known to have taken place. The
outbreak of the disease tends to confirm the
prevalent belief that when yellow fever once
occurs on wooden vessel the germs can never
be effectually eradicated.

The Police Commissioners Of Newark have de-
cned TO increase the salnries Of the police force

that 1t would be a wiser policy to enlarge the

sum. In raridly growing city like Newark
this is doubtless sensible course 70 take. Police
men, as rule, in cities like Newark, arc well
