CONSUMPTION NOT CONTAGIOUS.

CINCINNATI, March S.-[SpeciaI. 1.-The resolution to isolate consumptives at the pest house came before the hospital trus. tees yesterday.

Mayor Caldwell and other trustees opposed the re- moval, and by unanimous consent the reso- lution was tabled indefinitely, never to be resurrected. Mayor Caldwell suggested the use of the Amick treatment at the hospital. Definite action was deferred. A
 This victory won, pr. Amick will battle for consumptives everywhere. He is mail ing free accounts of his victory and the Amick consumption records to physicians and coDsumptives who write him. c

A PROUD RECORD.

The Courier-Journal unconsciouslv
gives the result of turning over that
State to the tender mercies of the gold
ties. 1t gives the incidents Of thirty
one murders in Kentucky in July,
and the total in August as seventeen
up to the 18th, Of the month, the total
killing between July 1st, and August
10Th, being forty-eight, and adds that
this takes no account of numerous
shooting and cutting ARRAYS in which
the intentio on was to kill" If the
editor of the Courier-Journal would
take that and similar data. and COM
pare it with twenty-five years ago, we
think his conclusion would have - be
that the country is generally slipping
back into barbarism. If he would
then compare the ratios of divorces
of lunatics. Of criminals in the tails
and penitentiaries, and of the paupers
in the various poor.houses in the
country, his impression of approach
ing barbarism and %retreating civil
ization would be strengthened. and
possibly through his brain there
might some time steal the thought
that when in a civilized country one
half its real money is thrown away.
no other result can follow.

Keep AWay.

Reports which have gone out con-
corning the beginning Of work on the
Brunswick lode and the prospect of
better times on the Comstock are at
tracing outside miners to this place
IN search OF employment. This is a
misfortune. There are more miners
here now than can be employed. In
fact, there is a very large number of
idle men here, many of whom have
lived here for years and have families
to support. They are unable to get
work and have been waiting for a
long time for times to improve and
increase their opportunities. The
working Of the Brunswick lode is an
enterprise that in the nature Of things
must be conducted on an economical
basis and in all probability it will
never be able to absorb ever all Of the
idle miners who are permanently To-
Gated here, unless a great bonanza is
discovered on the lode,
At present outsiders have no show
to get work here at all and every new
arrival makes the situation more
pressing for those already here, Then
again, outsiders only find themselves
stranded when they arrive, and the
o leaves them worse off than yer.
ole miners from other places should
steer clear of the Comstock Virginia
Chronicle.
