HEALTH AND CLEANLINESS.

The prompt and enicacious manner
in which the Street, Sewer and Drain
Board and the Board of Health have
acted since Sunday deserves the thanks
and the commentator OF the commu-
nifty.
With the scare OF yellow fever just
across Hampton Roads, on the PENN
sula, business is going on here like an
everyday matter.
1t is true the harbor is surrounded by
a Gordon OF guards. and 1t is worth a
mans life to land here from Hampton,
Old Point or Phoebus But this is as it
should be, and is but one of the causes
that create so much confidence in the
people.
Almost every alley, court and vacant
lot is covered with lime after having re-
ceived q good cleaning and bath. The
old FOUNDERS of the dark courts have
found themselves ruthlessly dragged
out and cleaned.
Some few ladies and children have
gone to the mountains. but n careful
survey will show more people in town
to-day than were here last summer at
this time.
Norfolk is naturally healthy city
In general health ii ranks fifth. Nor
folk has the finest sewerage system
made--the "Warng system"
1t is well, therefore, that our people
are exercising such commendablc judg-
ment and good faith and confidence, for
they have reason 10 do so.

But we insist on the "modus vivendi,"
the temporal, or temporary, Treaty OF
Peace in religious faith and practice,

we believe it sufficient for this life, and
for the life to come, whatever the lat
ter may be. on the assumption that we

differ as widely in their views of the
yellow fever situation as they do in
their qualifications To- discharge the du-
ties dcvoiving upon Them. The former
thinks the disease will spread beyond
It's present limits. but is in doubt
whether ii will reach Norfolk and the
Northern cities, while the latter has
several times expressed his conviction
that the disease would be stamped out

was in no danger. and he could see no

General Wyman has never failed to
grasp the situation and speedily stamp
out yellow fever wherever he found it,
intelligent people will experience no
difficulty in reaching the conclusion
that the former is comparatively dis
qualified for rendering an intelligent
opinion of the situation. He has sur
rendered everything into the hands of
General Wyman. not even sending
army surgeons TO the Home or Fort

cooperation upon the part Of our Cit
liens with the sanitary authorities in
the present emergency. In the busy
moments incident to leaving the city
quite number of residents have neg
lected to remove their garbage barrels
from the rear Of the premises to the
street, as required by law, and
it has in some instances been
necessary to break gates in or

A RELIGIOUS MODUS VIVENDI.

Following closely on the recent not
able changes in articles of faith by
prominent ministers of the gospel or

tian religion. but of all religions and
all superna turalism TO the great first
cause of all. or course. n subject so
important TO mankind must interest all
Intelligent persons; but the saddcsi

A MEMBER of the Committee to inves-
tigate the war, unbosomed himself, Fri
day, to q reporter at Washington, and
the first thing he said wa: "The report
does not whitewash." Why then the
premature denial? Then he says that
they questioned 500 witnesses. and
"could have had 10, 900 more who could
truthfully have said that the conduct of
the war was all right" But why did
they not call the thirty regimental COM
manders who said the beef was unfit to
eat. There was, no doubt, much of the
beef that was good. and the men that
got this could truthfully testify that
80 far as they knew, the beef was all
right. But that does not prove that
much that was bad was not issued, and
that thousands OF witnesses could testify
to that fact. Probably 1900 men in
the thirty regiments whose commanders
said it was bad, could have testified that
1t was unfit to eat. It is not q question
whether the conduct of the war was
right, but whether the rascally contrac-
tors, perhaps with the connivance of
some officers and heads of the commits
sary department, did not feed our SOL
diers with bad beef. The reason this
member of the commission said their
report was not . whitewash, was doubt
less because he had reason to believe the
country would look upon it az such.
