about this time" TO adap, the old almanac
phrase, look out for ducks We mean the
particular variety Of fowl which our French
friends have named the canard. Unlike the
savory canvasback. Il has all seasons for its
own. But II nourlshes most In times Of public
anxiety or deep interest. and. above ALL when
there Is no possibility OF It's being anything else
than n canard. We had fine specimen of II
the other day. Or rather 20 save the bother OF
selecting from among nm embarrassment OF
riches, we have had fine specimens OF II every
day since the war began And numerous
new brood Is hatched ont every day.
To-day's lot will probably be about Spanish
fleets. We shall hear Of all sorts Of long, low.
rakish crafts cruising off Nantucket and Ca
narsie and in the Ridgewood Reservoir There
will be Spanish ships of war Mt sea! We have
sighted nfty-three"-and fifty times fifty-threc.
Why not? "Canst thou draw out levlathan

laying and incubating canard? How many
cocksure reports did VIC have Of the movements
Of that wonderful Cape Verd fleet? 1t was at
Newfoundland, on the coast Of Brazil in tho
Suez Canal In the harbor OF Cndz. and in
seventeen other distinct and separate places MI

went near one OF them So It has been, and so
It will be- rs long there are ducks-and gulls
to listen to their quacking.
But let us possess our souls In patience and
IN security. There really isn't my danger Of
a blockade OF the Port OF New York nor OF a
bombnrdment Of Coney Island, not bit The
Government knows n good deal more about the
movements OF the Spanish fleet than even the
most ultra-omnlscent bulletin improviser. And
It may be trusted TO take care OF 1t. And any
way, getting IN a panic and jumping up and
down and "hollcring" won't help the case bit
either way. The Army and Navy are attend

the doing Of this that the recent controversy
arose. Yet the great principle In question Is ac-
cepted BIZ both parties TO the controversy The
University and Bellevue Hospital Medical Col
lege will henceforth be as directly under Uni
versity control as is the School OF Arts itself
which IS precisely what the University has
wanted: and the members Of the University
medical faculty who have disagreed with the
Chancellor and Council, and therefore severed
their connection with that institution, will not
organize an independent school, but Will iden-
tify themselves with another great University.
The university idea prevails at every point.
There will be lasting differences OF public
opinion concerning the controversy and the con-
duct Of the parties TO II and the wisdom or
csta bIshing n third great University school IN
this city. There will be none, we believe, rs to
the wisdom of incorporating the medical schools
into the universities and making professional
education nm integral part Of university culture.
It IS possible to have good professional school
entirely separate from n university. OF that
Bellevue itself Is proof. But Bellevue VIII
doubtless hcnceforth be proof that 1t Is to the
advantage of even the best such school to be
united with n university. In promoting that
principle and putting It into practice, even ut
the cost OF some storm and stress. the Chancel-
lor of Ncw-York University has conferred dis
tinct and important benefit upon this commu-
nifty and upon the general cause Of higher edu-
cation And in the triumph of that principle.
on both sides Of this controversy better as
surance than ever before Is given to the world
of the high character Of the instruction and
training given in the medical schools OF New
York

blocked, or something else Really. If true IN
those circumstances, 1t would not be an unwel-
come bit Of news. 1t would be strange If the
American fleet could not corner the Spanish IN
that harbor and repeat the Manila game upon
It. And there are not few Yankee tars VINO
would feel q strong zest in destroying Spanish
warships within sight Of the very spot where
Spanish Government officers massacred three
score Americans and wantonly trampled the
faces of the dead and dying beneath the hoofs
of their horses II Santiago is to be the scene OF
the big battle, none could suit us better

NEWYORK MEDICAL SCHOOLS.


The controversy over the University Medical
College may now be rcckoned closed, at least as
far as public interest Is concerned. Both par
ties to il have made authoritative statements Of
the case, explicit and Ineligible. The public
has read them and will form. or has probably
formed. its final judgment of their merits. That
such controversy ever occurred Is TO DO much
deplorcd. Yet 1t IL by TO means impossible that
out Of it much good may come Indeed. one
most important piece of good il now accom-
pllshed to wit, the consolidation Of the Bellevue
College with the University. That has been long
desired by both the institutions 1t was almost
effected year ago. but failed at the last mo-
ment, for reasons which are well known and
need not here be recounted. It's triumphant re-
newal will unquestionably result in benefits to
both the institutions and in advantage to the
cause Of medical education in New-York
No less important, but rather, as n matter Of
policy and theory more so, Is the triumph at
every point OF the principle for which the Chan
cellor Of New-York University has so earnestly
contended, TO wit the complete incorporation of
the medical and other professional schools into
the University system. To the accomplishment
Of that end Dr. MacCracken set himself rs soon

more than half independent They bore the
name Of The University and conferred It's diplo-
mas. but in organization and administration

manner He has brought them into complete
organic and administrative union with the Uni
versity, and thus carried to its logical consum-
nation the true university idea. It was from

A SONG FOR THE sAILOR-MEN.

Now It's hall TO the commander
And It's hail tho valiant fleet,
ARD ~ hail the guns TIA, Numbered
But wen not forget the sailors
SO it's sailor men, hurrah.
It's your cOuntrys hand we give you,
For to shake your srlmy paw.
The sailor-men the sailor-men,
Tho men who fought below,
The Sunncrs and tho striplinEs
And the navvieS we don't know
But It's hall To them and Honor
Wreath her roses round their fame;
For twas them that did their duty
When tho cannon spoke their flannel
O. cheer tho mighty commodore
The credit IS his due.
And cheer tho under officers.
Tho Sunncrs and the crew,
But don't forget the sailor men,
Who fought the fight below,
Where the devil lit his furnace
And they hadn't any show.
The saior-men. the sailor-men,
flag we'll fly for them.
And tho girls Will wreath tho roses
In gaudy diadem;
For to crown tho seamans valor
And 10 honor them that sweat,
Where tho devil lights his furnace
And tho bloody decks are wet.
Now It's hail unto tho commodore,
Tho captains. and all that.
But We shan't forget tho underlingA
Or be they Mike or Pat;
For they fought the fight with valor-
mere your cOuntryS mana 10 you.
Every hearty lad that's numbered
In the squadron's noble crew.
The sallor-men. the sailor men,
The lowest and tho high,
With heart for any duty
Though that duty be 10 die
Here's a cheer across the valleya
And an echo DER the hills;
For the land from hill to valley
With your splendid triumph thriilsi
Yea. hail the grimy sailor man.
And sure hos got a breast
That IL filed with love OF country
And It's hail him with tho rest;
For tho fires he kept a-burning,
And tho guns he kept awake,
And the sweet life that he offered
For his 'darn country's sake!
o. tho sailor-mnn. tho sailor-manl
When all Is said and DONE
AT Manila wherever
Valor's bloody race Is run,
He's -deservin' of afrccton
For. behold tho commodore
Without the grimy sailor-man
Can't make the cannon roar!
