Freedom Drought Consumption.

The boon of emancipation from slavery is said to be responsible for the great increase in tubercular diseases and insanity among the negroes of the southern states. While they lived in slavery the negroes were compelled to live sober and regular lives, but with freedom their natural impulse to ex- cesses asserted itself and they plunged without restraint into vicious and riot ous habits. They have consequently developed Q highly nervous consump- tive and alcoholic diatbesis, which makes them easily susceptible to dis cases from which formerly they were free. They are for the most part un- able to withstand exciting causes, and insanity is greatly on the increase among them. Mortality returns show that the rate of death from tuberculosis among southern negroes is three times as high as that among the whites San Francisco Argonaut.

In fact, in residence of sixteen years in Arizona the writer has only known two persons to be overcome by the heat, and they recovered. Their condition, however, was more the result of whisky than heat. The air is so dry here that a registered temperature Of no degrees is not as oppres- sive as 30 degrees in St. Louis or New York. The Signal Service bureau has recognized this fact, and reports the difference between the apparent and sensible temperature to be fuils 30 degrees. At nearly all times there is a pleasant breeze; the nights are invariably cool in the summer and outdoor labor is performed without serious discomfort to either man or beast on the warmest days. Very seldom does the thermometer get be- low the freezing point in winter, and in the gardens Of Florence to-day are castor bean plants two years or more old,
