TIE SANG EIR EREPTION

The tdingS carried To New-South Wales OF
the destruction Of an island in the Malay Archi-
pclago by volcanic eruption will excite lively
interest in the scientific world. 1t is only nine
wears since the krakatoa eruption in an ada
cent quarter of the Indian Ocean, and that was
the most destructive outburSt of volcanic energy
that has been known in modern times and
WAS accompanied by widespread disturbances
and physical phenomena. Not only was the
island in the Strait of Sunda destroyed with its
populatlOn of 10000. but tidal wave was
caused which reached San Francisco day
after the eruption, and for months thereafter
q most remarkable series of sunsets was wit
messed all over the globe, which were explained
by the presence of particles of volcanic dust
in the atmosphere. The recurrence of sim
liar eruption in the group lying south of the
Philippines will open another and closely con-
nccted chapter OF scientific discussion which
NAV prove of equal interest and importance.
The account which has been received from
the South Seas is based upon the statements
Of Dutch captain, whose ship was in sight of
Great Sangur at the time of the eruption. \
sudden explosion was heard, as in the disaster
IF Krakat0a and then the sky was darkened
with showers of ashes. When the horizon
cleared again there was no island in sight
Apparenty it bad been shattered to pieces and
submerged in the sea, and all that the captain
could see in its place was IA mass of vapor and
steam. More detailed statements will be re-
ouired before the report of the destruction of
the island with its population of 1900 can
be fully credited. There were mountains on
the island, and its superficial area was con-
siderable The sudden submergencc of so
large a mass in the sea would have been likely
TO cause tidal wave. as in the case Of Kraka-

On tbe one hand, Mr.. Cleveland has made

frankly commended by his opponents. and has
written two letters to silly persons, whose zeal
led them into attempts TO lug the members OF
his family into the political arena, which have
been printed with approval by newspapers that
oppose his election. On the other hand. the
norsonol character Of the President has not been
attacked bv the opposition press, so far as we
have observed. either openly or covertly ana
the non political speeches which he has been
called upon to make in his official character
have been treated with the courtesy and fair
ness which similar uttcrances by any private

TUE UEAITH BOARD on TRIAL.

The temperance Of typhuS fever in New
York is a serious matter, and we trust that the
sanitary authorities so regard it. Last winter :
outbrcal, was suppressed only by energetic and
sltilful work. and it will be grave mistake if
tbc present invasion is treated AZ if il were
of minor importance, simply because the cases
are few and the climatic conditions more favor
able If ever there was a time when the Health
Board needed to vindicatc its efficiency there
is need of such a demonstration now. THE
TRIBrNE is not in the habit of exciting pancS
or careleSsy contributing to public apprehcn-
sion and we do not expect 10 see the city over
run by a pestilencc this summer but no excuse
for taking risks is ever valid when the public
health is concerned, and there are special rca-
sons for extreme prudence at this time The
cholera has begun a march which may not be
brought to a halt on the borders Of Europe.
Indeed, experts are not agreed that the disease
which is now producing much anxiety in Paris
differs in any material respect from true chol-
era. Fortunately, there is a broad ocean be-
tween Us and the infected districts of the Old
World. but neglect may render this advantage
worthless. Every consideration Of prudence
dictates the conscientious discharge Of his duty
by every sanitary official.

the general public upon the fact that up to date
the present political campaign has not begun
TO drag in the dirt. Ii is, we think, the most
decent beginning that any Presidential cam
paign has had for a great many years Ii
really looks as if it might be carried on to the
end without deluging the country with the
usual slops of small scandals personal Cos
sip and attacks on character by low insnua-
ton and mean suggestion that once in four
years leaves the face of the country knce-dccp
in mud. and the whole community gaspinp for
disnfcctantS. Possibly the present condition
may be owing to the fact that the magazines
OF this sort of ammunition have been already
exhausted in the campaigns in which both can
didates have been before the people 1t may
be that this, and not any change Of heart ON
