a Shrewsbury oyster from a Buzzard's Bay. and
the INSCRIPTIONS dealer bestows names as he
pleases The only way to protect the public
health is to guard the beds from pollution and
absolutely stop the taking of shellfsh from
waters concerning which there is reasonable
ground for suspicion.
The north branch OF the Shrewsbury has en-
joyed better reputation than the south branch.
because efforts to use it as a sewer have been
pretty steadily resisted; but it is said that some
persons have been surreptitiously turning sew
age into that part OF the river. AS for the south
branch, 1t suggests Coleridge's question about
the Rhine after It washes the city Of Cologne.
The State Board OF Health believes that
typhoid outbreak which occurred some time ago
at Oceanic was caused by clans taken from the
south branch, and calls the attention of the
town boards ito the risk that may attend the
further use of clans taken from said polluted
waters"
No doubt the planters whose product Is thus
condemned will be indignant. The board like
the experts who discover copper salts in canned
peas, will be denounced because it ''hurts busi-
ness; but no business has a right to prosper
which threatens the public health. An embargo
upon all oysters from an uninspected bed until
0ystermen were aroused to stop pollution would
be better than the continued spread of typhoid.
The New-Jersey Oystermen ere not the only
menace to the community. Along Jamaica Bay
oysters taken from beds dangerously near
sewers or, what is worse put to "fatten'-that
is, TO get sick and swell up from absorbing
brackish water-in creeks which are heavily
loaded with house and stable drainage With
the great growth of population in the metropoli-
tan district the purity of all the adjacent waters
is endangered. and none of them should be used
for the culture of shellish except under the
most rigid inspection

PUBLIC AND PRIVATE SERVICE.

There is reason TO think that no mistake was
made in accepting the resignation of DR. George
Il. Moore, recently connected with the Depart
ment Of Agriculture 1t is announced from
Washington, however, that he probably will not
be prosecuted. Indeed, while it cannot be de-
MED that he was exceedingly indiscreet, it is
doubtful if he committed what is technically a
criminal offence. If, on the one hand, he was
somewhat blind TO the Interpretation which
might properly be put on his relations to
company that supplies the market with nitro
cultures" on the other hand he seems to have
been curiOusly undesirous of improving COM
mercial opportunities that were open TO him.
Pecuniary advantage was certainly not his first
aim. In developing the idea Of reinforcing a
fertilizer with bacteria which would stimulate
the absorption of nitrogen he was evidently ami
mated by the same impulse that dictated his
previous experiments with copperas an
agent for purifying water supplies. Scientific
enthusiasm and disinterested regard for the
public We're for long time his dominating
motives Accordingly he patented his inven-
tions in the name of the government, not in
his own, evidently feeling that the nation which
employed and paid him was entitled to use them
without paying any royalty. 1t may be true.
therefore, that he was honestly surprised at
the suddenness with which he was relieved
from duty.
Though a man OF DR.. Moores talent is not
likely to be long without remunerative employ
ment, it is doubtful whether the country will
hereafter get as much benefit from his in
genuity as it would IL he were TO remain In
the government service. Some individual man
ufacturer or private corporation will now proba-
bly, offer him place which, from pecuniary
point of view alone, will be more attractive
than the one which he surrenders. In new
sphere of activity. however. he Will be likely to
limit his efforts to the utilization OF ideas with
which the public Is already acquainted instead
Of setting himself to the task of evolving fresh
ones.

natural desire to enjoy all possible uxuries, but
that they are scornful Of the little care needed
to get for themselves the greatest good from
what they have, and wantonly throw luxuries
out of the window rather than take the trouble
TO conserve them. With the same opportunities
Frenchmen would live better and save more.
Nor are our people much given to saving at the
cost of self-denial Their surplus is. In an I'M
usual degree, really surplus, after daily needs
have been satisfied. When, therefore, we find
them depositing money at this rate, though
doubtless there are serious social and economic
evils TO be corrected, we may safely approach
those problems In spirit of moderation and not
assume need Of tearing society TO pieces

POPULAR PROSPERITY.

LII may be, as our preachers of calamity COM
plain, that the rich growing richer; but
certainly in this country the poor are not grow
ing poorer The report of Banking Superin-
tendent Kilburn, published on Sunday, conclu-
siVely demonstrates that fact so far as New
York State is concerned. Here in this great CEN
ire Of commerce and manufactures and finan-
eial manipulation, where the evils of explolta-
ton and the injustice Of the labor system should
be most operative the savings of the common
people-tbe wage earners, farmers and small
uederS-are increasing by leaps and bounds
This has not been specially favorable year
for the big dnanciers. The stock market has,
In general, been dull and the floating Of new
companies has been checked. Croakers have
been on the lookout for recession in the wave
OF prosperity. But the average citizen has gone
on bettering his fortunes at an uncommonly
rapid rate. Superintendent Kilburn reports that
New-York savings bank deposits have increased
more In the last fiscal year than in any previous
year Ia the history of the State, far surprising
the periods OF the most boasted general pros
pertty. In the last six months the increase has
been about $50 O00. 900, and IN the year SS5 &c.,
65o 68. The only year which came anywhere
near nvailing this showing was 1890 when the
increase amounted to s71,336, ,2s2. The savings
bank deposits are now 81 ,252 ,82S2 2e9 g. or more
than $50 for every man, woman and child In
ths State. As the savings banks are more
sf1zct than ever before In excluding what are
not properly savings accounts, and the growth
OF intsrest paying trust companies offers a more
convenient field for the class OF depositors who
formerly abused savings bank privileges, this
huge sum probably belongs in a very large
measure TO persons OF small means

The racing authorities I'm this State yester-

put in effect novel arrangement, requiring the
bookmal1ers to pay S12 daily for the official lists
of starters. weights and conditions. This would
seem to be judicious plan. Inasmuch as tho
racing associations have abandoned the formerly
prevalent system Of deriving fat revenue from
the betting ring for the privilege of making
wagers the horses. this official information
appears to be legitimate source of revenue to
their treasures.
