nothing was heard about republican
versus mCr0rchical forms of government:
There were but q few persons VINO had
raised the question. Neither Robcsplerre

selves in favor Of republic. The Mar

In favor of "a republic; so also Achille
Duchastcllct; and Tom Paine, the Amer

bluntly proclaimed himself republican;
hut these were quite exceptions. Even
the .Jacobin Club would not entertain the
proposal. , ..
On the ID Of September, 1892, Citizen
Moras. an obscure Jacobin, proposed that
th, country should do without king. The
proposal was not even discussed. FEEDER
alism as opposed to Capitalization was
debated on the 7ih and 10th of Septem-
Der. and on the 18th the republican pro-
gramme Of the Paris electors was brought
forward. but still the Jacobin Club would
not discuss the matter. On the 10th
member asked that when the Constit-

the abolition of royalty, but he was not
listened TO. At last, on the 9th OF Au-

adopt the title of Republican. and yet it

A Plea for Public Crematoria.

III ever there was a time IN this world
when cremation recommended itself that
time Is now. Fire is the great purifier. and
the diseased earth is IN need Of II. The
present manner OF disposing CT the dead has
always been abhorent to any one who look
ell at the matter from the point Of view Of
cleanliness and sanitation and now that the
nature OF germ and baclh Is known, burial
has come to seem more than ever a thing
belonging 10 the past, and out OF keeping
with tho scientific present. Sir Spencer
Wells, one of the greatest English experts
in germ diseases, has sent to the London
Graphic some Of the results Of experiments
bearing upon the burying OF bodies He
proves beyond doubt that disease and
other poisons can be carried through the
earth TO an astonishing distance
One experiment mentioned Is particularly
significant. lp the botanic gardens OF Lyons
flower pots were filed with earth On the
10Th Of June, 1891, and some earth.worms
were added In each pot, with some CT the
sputa OF the tuberculous patients at the hos.
pital and fragments OF lung from their
bodies. a month afterwards IL was found
that the earth-worms contained tubercle
bacilh In large numbers and that guinea
pigs inoculated with them soon died Of
tuberculosis. That the case would have
been the same had the disease been cholera
or typhoid the physician says there Is no
doubt The persistency with which grip
chung to this country was very possibly due
TO this cause In part. Hundreds Of thou.
sands OF victims were buried Ia the Gene
teries. and in the majority Of cases these
cemeteries were near habitations. many of
them being only just barely beyond the
towns.
This country is ready for the crematory.
Public sentiment is ready for IT, All that
seems to be lacking Is cooperation. There
Is no one to take the initiative In preparing
these public conyeniences- We work slowly
In such matters far slower than the OPP
portunities OF the age justify. This much

England Pleased With the Result.

The returns Of the American elections were
received in London yesterday too late for the
papers to comment on the result
The Pal Mail Gazette publishes brief note,
saying that both the merchants and the unem-
ployed workingmen of England have reason to
rejoice at the democratic victory. With the
possibility Of the reopening Of the American
markets to the goods of Birmingham, Bradford
and Manchester capitalists will get chance to
procure some return on their money invested
and the workingmen will have an opportunity
to get decent price for their labor without
the necessity Of striking.

American people believe that it has been equally

To fre Fdi'or of The Evening Star:
MAY not one of your oldest subscribers solicit
a small space in the columns of your paper for
the purpose of correcting at least one Of the
various misleading statements contained in an
article from the Pittsburg Times in last Satur-
days issue OF The STAR and headed Cadets
Grog Money
1t is therein related that the "grog ration
was abolished in the navy in 1876, under the
administration of President X. Il. Hayes. and
through the fundamentally of Lucy Hayes, the
gentle wife of the President. Nothing is far
| ther from the truth. The ''grog ration" in the
navy was abolished by act of Congress in 1868,
under the administration of President Abraham
Lincoln, and mainly through the efforts of that
grand old navy hero and Christian gentleman,
Admiral Foote of Fort Henry and Fort Donald
son fame.
The writer served in those stirring days in
Admiral Farragut's feet, below and above New
Orleans. and well remembers the lamentations
| of the old salts at the prospect of being de
prived of their daily 'smlle" their prediction
Of the direful consequences that would result
from the new dispensation; that the navy would
not be able to obtain seamen to man its ships,
&c. None of these ''direfu results have
of course materialized. any more than the fears
of some of the older navy officers of the times
that the adjustment Of the ''cat Of nine tails
would result in the ruin of the discipline and
efficiency of the navy; the latter punishment u

but not at all consonant with the enlightenment
OF the nineteenth century, and certainly not
with humanity. real or pretended. Various
poetical illusions, Of more or less merit, ap-
peared in the papers at the time in consequence
Of the Adjustment of the grog ration" Of
one of which. consisting of some eight stanzas, a
few being still fresh in the memory of the writer,
he permits himself to quote. since, albeit not of
any special value as a work of art, they bear on
the question at issue:
