R,v,cc, of I,ubon,c Plague

Bombay. April 2O.-Accordng to sta
tistics gathered regarding the bubonic
plague 1t is established that there have
been 25O.OOO deaths recorded in India
since its beginning. These figures,
however. are undoubtedly far below
the actual total. as the natives are
known to have concealed quite num-
her of deaths.
The deaths in Bombay presidency
are still about LOCO weekly. With the
return of hot weather the plague,
which is now the third epidemic. is
again rapidly disappearing. The NOR
tality. which was $50 daily in the city
of Bombay five weeks ago. has now
sunk to 100 n day, and the government
has dropped the rigorous reprcssive
measures which. it has been found, it
is impossible to maintain indefinitely
in face of the fatalist resignation Of
thp natives,

Critics OF missions, who delight IL
saving that "it takes dollar to carry
a cent" to the beneficiaries of these
organizations, are conclusively refuted
by facts given in connection with the
missions of the Methodist Epis-
copal church. During the church year
1878 this body expended In the for
eign and domestic mission fields about
twelve hundred thousand dollars. The
Salaries of missionary bishops, secre-
taries. and so forth" together with the
office and incidental expenses took
lust six and half cents out of each
dollar given to be expended in mission
work. The children of this world
may be wiser in their generation than
the children of light" at least the
critics think SO; but the fact remains
that a business corporation which
could keep its cost Of administration"
within seven per cent of its total ex-
penditure would feel that it exhibited
very commendable worldly skill.

Nothing is easier than ridicule; and
in nine cases out of ten where ridicule
is used, 1t is resorted TO only because
it is the only weapon available. The
man of intelligence will use his rea-
son in the argument with his oppo-
nent; the man of knowledge will use
his knowledge; but the man who has
neither knowledge nor intelligence
must resort to ridicule. 1t is a poorly
furnished armory which supplies no
better weapon.

Ex-President Harrison is in favor OF
peace and arbitration. but in his letter
to the United Society of Christian En-
deavor, Boston. he said: 1T would
have been in vain to suggest the pull
ing down Of blockhouses or family
disarmament to the settlers on hos
tile Indian frontier. They would have
told you rightly that the conditions
were not ripe, and 80 it may be and
is, probably, true that full applica-
ton OF the principle is not presently
possible, the devil still being un-
chained" With Philippine rebels
shooting at American soldiers, and re-
sisting United States authority. ex-
President Harrison is not in favor oi
disarming or of retreating.

Gentlemen who believe in correcting
their wives by physical methods will
naturally find much encouragement
and satisfaction in the decision OF
Judge Peabody of st. Louis, who holds
husband is justified In chastising his
wife in moderation. The trouble is
that wives have lately developed an in
clination to do the chastising them
selves. Two recent instances In the
daily papers illustrate this tendency.
One was that of Mrs. Albina Chemlik
of Chicago, who. upon being reproved
by her husband broke stove leg
over his head. The other concerns
Mrs. Sarah Adams of Camden. N. j.,
who found her husband in a saloon
when he should have been at home
and proceeded to spank him coram
publico. 1t is obvious that Judge
Peabody's ruling will afford little
comfort to Messrs. Chemlik and
Adams, nor will 1t aid husbands whose
wives are expert in the handing OF
rolling pins and teakettles as weapons
of offense and defense. Judge Pea
body may decree that the wife should
submit to chastisement, but If the iady
disregard the ruling 1t Is going TO be
difficult to enforce it. We doubt II
the learned Judge will institute CON
tempt proceedings to sustain MS de
cision.
