again bowed. He took me
out to one of the small build
ings before mentioned. 1t is the
Information Bureau, where the
friends Of expected immigrants
apply for news of the arrival OF
the steamers, and where cards
are filed out with the names Of
thu immigrants, their destina-
ton, and the steamer on which
they are expected to arrive.
These cards are afterward read
out by one of the Castle Garden
officials to the waiting ilnmi-
grants who expect friends To
meet them, and they then come
forward.
Close to the entrance is a pO-
lice station were several officers
are always on hand. Not far
away is the Labor Bureau, where
those i'm migrants desiring stu
atoms may apply as soon as tn ey
arrive. Outside of the door is
hung a slate on which is written
in English and German the sort
of help that is desired by en-
plDyers who have applied here.
A small room IN the end of this
building is set apart for the no
tel and boarding use-keepers.
In the same building with the
Information Bureau is the Office
Of the Mission of our Lady of
the Rosary, for the protection of
immigrant girls, that was estab-
lished in 1883 by the late Rev.
Father Riordan. This mission
maintains a home on State
strett; where friendless girls
and those who are waiting for
friends or money are cared for
until their friends are heard
from.
A reception hospital is also
maintained here for the purpose
of caring for the sick immi-
grants until they can he trans
ferred to the hospital on Wards
Island. In connection with the
hospital is the Wards Island
Bureau, where applications are
received from immigrants fo1
admission to the institution on
that island.
The place is well worth visit
ing. The whole thing is study
and we leave feeling we'll paid
for our time and trouble.

GOuLD's SOUTHERN VIEWS.

One of the most beneficial results Of
the growing disposition Of Northern capt
talists TO make investments in various forms
Of Southern property is the correctness OF
view which it leads TO among these capital
lists. who are the most influential men in
the North, with reference TO the real condi-
tions, involving the relations Of whites and
blacks, which prevail in the Southern States.
For many years, the dangers and difficulties
Of what has been termed the "negro prob
lem," were very much complicated by the
hcatile or offlcious attitude Of the larger
portion Of the Northern people. There was
very strong inclination on their part to
increase the perils surrounding the South
arising from this source, by indiscriminate
criticism or active interference. This feel
ing has undergone very sensible moditea-
ton, a fact which is chiefly TO be attributed
to the more intelligent understanding of the
Southern situation which has followed the
enormous investments Of Northern capital
which have in the last few years been made
In every part OF our Southern country.
These investments have influenced very

II is unreasonable to argue that the cause
OF home rule has been wrecked by Mr.. Par
nelps folly. No one man yet ever succeed
ed in destroying good cause. But through
his arrogant selfishness Parnell has put on
the final triumph of home rule for many
wears. Only a few weeks ago the settle
ment of the Irish question seemed near at
hand. Now il Is no longer an immediate
living issue, because Ireland is divided into
two hostile camps on the Irish question: 30

snlt OF the O'Shea trial, proved that his use

ten years was the acknowledged champion
of ireland-her uncrowned king-is now

THE VOICE OF THE GALLERIES.

The Washington Post, commenting on the
unusual applause prevalent in the Senate
galleries during the pending discussion OF
the Force bill, calls special attention to
two facts: First, that the applause is al
WAYS louder and more general whenever
telling point is made against the bill, and
second. that those who make the applause
are not Southerners nor from any special
section.
Both these points are well taken and
very significant. This non-sectional and
non-partisan applause which prevails in the
Senate galleries is but the echo Of the voice
Of the people of the whole Union, uttered IN
snch tremendous thunder tones at the polls
last November. The Force bill was one Of
the most important of the measures intro
duced in Congress by the existing Radical
majority, riyaling in prominence and pub
lie interest the celebrated Mckinley tariff
law. TWAS on that same bill that the pub
lie directly expressed their sentiments at the
November election, and never in the his
tory of the country has any more emphatic
disapproval been uttered on any pubic
question. Yet il spite of this, the desperate
Radicals in Congress are preparing to defy
the people, and carry on their revolutionary
legislation In the face Of known public
opinion.
1t will be very hazardous for the majority
in the Senate to persist in their folly. The
Senate gallery is but expressing the wish
of the people, and Hoar and his reckless
colleagues would do well TO heed it. The
political tidal wave which lately rushed
over the country swept Republican
rule out of existence, and supplant-
ed il with an overwhelming Demo-
cratic majority in the popular branch
of the next Congress-a majority. too, nota-
bly, non-sectional, and comprising more
votes from the North, East, and West, than
from the South Should the Force bill be-
come law, the indications are that all the
CONGREGATIONAL ocote which can DO stoien
from the South by Republican Federal mar
shals armed with bludgeons, Republi-
can bayonets, and Republican courts
would be insufficient TO stem the
tide of popular indignation which will be
excited. If the Republican Senators per-
sist in pressing this bill, in spite of the Sc
we're lessons they have so recently been
taught, the only conclusion which can be
reached concerning them is that they have
been stricken by the gods with the madness
which presages destruction.

Harvard's Astronomical Expedition.

The new project Of Harvard Observatory
contemplates the grand work of mapping
the heavens of the Southern hemisphere
from a permanent station TO be established
In Peru. point has been selected near
the city of Arequipa, at an altitude OF eight
thousand feet. Professor Pickering expects
10 find there the climatic conditions which
will be most favorable for Photographic
the stars.
Probably few points could be chosen
within reasonable distance of civilization
affOrding a greater number of clear nights
for observation than the vicinity OF Are
quipa. Though about forty miles from the
shores of the Pacific, the Andes intercept
the vapor which would otherwise reach ii IN
the Atlantic trade winds, while the Paclnc
winds, not moist enough TO cause much
cloud, seldom blow inland.
The expedition will, therefore, have I'M
paralleled opportunities for star photo
graphy. In the transparent Andean skies
the fine instruments which will be set up
by the Harvard observers may be expected
TO make some extraordinary astronomical
conquests. Probably the moons surface
will be more clearly revealed than ever be-
fore. But perhaps the most interesting
discoveries 10 reward Professor Pickering
will be the nature Of the canals OF Mars
when the ruddy planet in 1872 makes his
nearest approach TO the earth.

Present Neto

There are a number Of very signincah'
circumstances connected with the Appor-
tionment bill. 1t was framed by partisan
House committee, which in itself is SUM-
cient to cause it to be received with great
suspicion. 1t Is certain that the Repubn-
can House will not do anything to the adj
vantage Of Democrats, and 1t is equally Ger
tain that 1t will omit nothing TO the adj
vantage OF the Republicans. This is shown
by the fact that Of the total number
of representatives gained by this Dill,
seventeen are given TO heretofore Republic
can States, while but seven are allotted 10
States known to DO Democratic. New YORK
is carefully omitted from the list oil states
whose representation will be increased
and so have the States classed as doubtful
viz: Connecticut, Indiana, and West Viz
ginia. 1t is very apparent that the Census
Committee labored hard TO make the
increase as great as possible In those
States which, before the cyclone OF
November were regarded as reliably Repue-
Iican, while retaining, as far as possible,
the status quoin States classed as certainly
Democratic. The committee, IN other words,
took good care that the ratio Of division
17S9Oi OF population to Congressional dr.
trict, with an additional member for each
state showing fraction of more than bal'
that ratio after the division by the ratio OF
the total population-shOuld be such fix
ure as would be likely TO give the benefit
of all doubts to the Republicans. 1t was
on the remainder over, after division by
the ratio, on which the committee mainly
calculated, for they knew that the ratio oil
I73,90i would leave larger remalndeis III
Western Republican States, which would
then make gains, while the smaller re-
mainders would be in the Southern and
Eastern States. For instance, nine of the
States having remainder over, more than
half the ratio are from the ranks Of those
generally classed as RepublicaL-Califor-
mia, Iowa, Maine, Massachusetts, Oregon,
Rhode Island, South Dakota, Vermont, and
Wisconsin,; while only seven, Alabama,
Georgia, Kentucky, Maryland, South Caro-
lima. Texas, and Virginia, are Democratic
and one, Indiana, is doubtful.
The Democrats will be fully justified in
fighting the Apportionment bill by any le-
climate means in their power, and, in fact,
il will be well for them to defeat, if they
can, any reapportionmen. measure which
this Congress is likely to concoct. The next
Congress will be Democratic in one House
and Republican in the other, and therefore
will be much more likely TO agree upon an
apportonment bill, which will be non-sec-
tional and non-partisan. 1t may be asserted
with absolute confidence that the present
Republican body will seek more to gain par
tisan advantage from the proposed reappor
tionment than TO legislate for the benefit Of
the country.

PROFESSOR NIRCHOw, Of Berlin, has
been interviewed by the New York Herald
on the subject of Koch's lymph. He thinks
it is a very dangerous thing TO NEEDLE with,
especially unless the patient is subjected
TO Thorough treatment. Says the Professor:
1T is very clear to me that the lymph is
dangerous for children and persons IN the
a ivanced STAGES of phthisis. In the case OF
children il brings on perilOus Inflammation
of the lungs, and in advance phthisis II IS

cular meningitis the fluid is likely TO cause
fatal Inflammation Of the brain tissues. No
doubt the remedy brings on Astonishing
changes in limpus and apparent cures are
affected. As for tuberculosis Of the lungs,
some of the cases Of early stages of the d.
sease show slight improvement. The pa
tient claims that he feels better, his weight
improves and there is less sputum, but my
opinion is that these results are mostly
psychological. The patients mind and sys-
TEN are affected and stimulated by the
knowledge that he is receiving a new
remedy which is said TO be quick cure.
No tests made now. in this time OF excite
ment, are worth much. We must have a
period of quiet before the real search for
results can be made, for the patients must
be in normal condition. IT will take a
wear or two before we can tell whether
Koch's lymph is effective in phthisis. IL is
possible that by careful experimenting for
two or three years we may be able 10 use
his lymph successfully in combination with
some other compound, and so conquer
