One of the funniest things in the cam

got in a good way abusing Hamilton Fish,
under the supposition that he had deter

that he was still loyal to Blaine.
O'Donovan Rossa is not for Blaine after

The report circulated in New York last
week that President Arthur had been

ever since the Republican pow-wow at

The merchants aud property owners on
Broadway, New York, appear to favor a

the railroad should be built that the thou

Votes, it is thought, will be worth sls
each in Ohio and Indiana in the Presiden

in each State at that price, together with
what usually sticks to the hands of the
soap committees, would knock the spots
out of a million dollar bill. Messrs. Elkins
and Dudley may take due notice and
govern themselves accordingly.
The railway passenger agents have the
boss letter of the period. It is signed by
“Eighty Thousand Travelers,” and begs
them to issue general traveling mileage
cards, good on any road in the country.
It is proposed to issue 2,500 and 5,000 mile
cards, to be sold for SSO ftnd SIOO respec

now charged shippers on mo||p}oads. The
coupons are to be seagpyxbe general

adopted. It would be a great convenience
to traveling men, and would do away
with the complicated excursion ticket
system in many instances.
The New York Tribune is disturbed by
the great Democratic gains in the factory
towns of Maine, and feebly explains that
the people were deceived. It says fur
ther that “the mills were closed by Demo
cratic agitation of the tariff,” whereupon
the Evetting Post of that city remarks
that “there was some tariff agitation in
the last Congress, when a bill to reduce
* t jj e tariff to the point>jfcich a Republican
commission had to a pre
vious Congress failed to pass because of
Democratic opposition. Is the effect of
that agitation still felt, and is it that
which has closed three-fifths of the iron
furnaces in the country? Is it that also
which is at the bottom of the mining
troubles in the Hocking valley of Ohio?”
Swinging Around the Circle.
Blaine apparently has great confidence
in what his admirers call his magnetism
The good-sized majority which the Re
publicans had in Maine is attributed
largely to Blaine’s presence and manage
ment. The country will accept, proba
bly. without question, the statement that
to Blaine's management the Republican
success in Maine was due, especially
since the evidence seems to be overwhelm
ing that the victory was purchased. It is
not a difficult matter to carry a State with
money. The first thing to be determined
is the number of votes needed, and the
next is to bargain for them.
Blaine is not unfamiliar with bargains
in polities. In fact, his bargains appear
to have turned out very advantageouslj
for him. They turned out so well that he
has a very handsome bank account to
draw upon when it is desirable to put
monev where it will do the most good.
Y -very considerable sum was put in
Maine, and now it is announced that
Blaine will soon start for Ohio. He.
doubtless, sees where he can make him
self useful there. He is not accustomed,
as he himself has said In one of the famous
Mulligan letters, to be a deadhead in any
enterprise.
Blaine, no doubt, hopes that his pres
ence in Ohio will stir up some of the en
thusiasm that was once felt there for Gar
field. It is admitted, even by Republicans,
that the indifference as to the result of
the October election, particularly in the
Western Reserve—Garfield’s old district
—is in striking contrast to the enthusiasm
which prevailed there in the Republican
ranks in ISSO, and in previous campaigns.
It remains to be seen if money will do
as much in Ohio as it did in Maine. It is
probable that Blaine and his managers
will find difficulties in their way in the
Octobei State which were not noticeable
in the September State.
It seems, also, that Blaine is to be taken
to Indiana and given a chance toexert his
magnetic powers on the voters of that
State. Before he goes there, however, he
ought to answer the interroga
tories which have been filed in
the libel suit which he brought
against the Indianapolis Sentinel. Of
course, his delay in answering is not to
be construed as indicationg that he can
not truthfully answer them without dam.
aging his case, but it excites a suspicion
that he is not so prompt to enter upon a
trial of the suit as he was to bring it.
It is a question whether it is a good
policy for a Presidential candidate to ex
hibit himself over the country. Those
who adopted that plan were defeated.
Douglass, Seymour, Greeley and others
tried it. but not with success. It
be that their speeches con
tributed nothing to their defeat.
The titneslTo?- yhiC-'S seems to indicate,
however, that'ca^r^Ernie*; is not in keep
ing with the can
didate. In deciding pait
in a political canvass customspfrears to
hare very properly drawn the line so as to
just include Vice Presidential candi
dates.
A Quiet Time in Georgia.
There is no prospect of any political ex
citement in this State this year. In a
few of the counties there may be a little
stir over local offices, but it will not be
sufficient to attract attention outside of
the localities interested. There is, prac
tically. no opposition to the Democratic
party. The Republicans, knowing that
thev have no chanc. whatever of carrying
the state for Blaine, will not take the
trouble to have the State canvassed, and
the Democrats are so certain that they
will have everything their own way that
they will not bother themselves about
forming campaign clubs and holding po
litical meetings.
In some respects this condition of af
lairs is a source of satisfaction, and in
others it is to be regretted. It is a source
or satisfaction for one thing, because the
attention of laborers on farms and planta
tions will not be drawn away from their
work, and, for another, because there
will be wanting the demoralization and
excesses that are closely connected with
exciting political campaigns.
The absence of the stirring scenes of an
exciting campaign are to be regretted, be
cause the people are apt to lose their in
terest in political matters, and to be sat
isfied to permit inferior men to adminis
ter their local, State and national affairs.
In the country districts the people depend
very largely upon the campaign orators
for their knowledge of the issues involved
in the contest, and for their impressions
of the qualifications of the candidates.
Some haven't the time and many haven’t
the inclination to read the newspapers
closely, and. therefore, when they haven’t
a chance to hear campaign speeches they
know very little of what is going on in the
world of politics.
It is a good thing for the people to hear
taeir political leaders discuss live politi
cal issues aud show up the weak points
of the policies of the opposing parties.
Georgia has had her years of political ex
citement, when almost every voter felt a
deep interest in current political events,
but she is destined to have a quiet time
tbi3 year. There will not be a contest
even for the State House offices. The
great political orators will devote their
talents to making converts in other States.
Georgia will attend almost exclusively to
gathering her crops.
Production and Consumption of
Cotton.
In reviewing the cotton movement and
crop of 1883-84 the Commercial and Finan
cial Chronicle gives some very interesting
statistics on quite a number of points.
The statistics relating to the consump
tion and production of cotton, for in
stance, contain very valuable informa
tion.
The annual increase in the consump
tion of cotton is very steady. Expressed
in 400-lb. bales the average amount con
sumed each year, throughout the world,
during the six years ending in 1871-72
was 5,419,000 bales. The average amount
consumed each year during the six years
ending in 1877-78 was 6,868,000 bales, and
the amount consumed each year during
the six years ending in 1883-84 was 8,708,-
000 bales.
It is interesting to note the relative in
crease of consumption in the localities
where cotton is consumed. From 1866-67
to 1871-72 the annual consumption in
Great Britain was 2.646,000 bales; on the
continent 1.703,000 ba! s, and in the Uni
ted States 822,000 bales. From 1872-73 to
1877-78 the annual consumption in Great
Britain was 3,116.000 bales: on the conti
nent 2,271,000 bales, and in the United
States 1,481,000 bales. From 1878-79 to
1883-84 the annual consumption in Great
Britain was 3,496,000 bales; on the conti
nent 3,074.000 bales, and in the United
States 2,138,000 bales. From these figu res
it appears that th • increase in consumption
has been much greater in this country than
anywhere else. It is noticeable that our
manufacturing capacity increases as our
cotton crop increases.
The world’s supply of cotton for the
past 18 years is shown by the following
figures. The bales are rated at 400 pounds.
The average crop in the United States
from 1866 to 1872, was 3,167,000 bales,
and in all other places 2,337,000 bales.
The average crop iu the United States
from 1872 to 1878 was 4,771,000 bales, and in
all other localities 2,022,000 bales. From
1878 to 1384 the average crop in the United
States was 6,721,000 bales, and in all other
localities 2,015,000. The increase in the
world’s supply of cotton, therefore, was
furnished by this country. It is highly
probable that the contributions to the
world’s supply of cotton bv other coun
tries will remain about stationary in the
future.
The demand for cotton is all the time
increasing. The increase must be sup
plied by this country. It is reasonable to
suppose that within the next six years
our cotton crop will reach 8,000,000 bales.
The French Government and the Pope

A Crime that Mast be Cheeked.
The arrest of a colored man at Albany,
Ga.—who, up to the date of bis arrest, had
borne a respectable cbatacter —charged
w ith being at the bead of a secret society,
the members of which were engaged in
wrecking the train that was taking the
Albany military to Dawson on Aug. 24,
is an event of more than passing import
ance. The military were moving under
orders of the Governor to insure the en
forcement of the law in the case of the
execution of a criminal.. The crime for
which the criminal was to suffer death
was one of the most heinous known. In
stead of assisting the authorities in en
forcing the law, these colored people at
tempted to murder those who were sent
to assist in enforcing the law.
The press of the country contains
almost daily accounts of fiendish assaults
upon white women and girls, and pro
bably but a small number of the attempts
to commit this crime is given to the
public. The sufferers and their friends
prefer to hide the nameless shame. In
many instances one crime is followed by
another. The helpless and ruined victims
are not permitted to live to tell the horri
ble story of their wrongs. The South is
the scene of most cases of this crime,
but the North and West are also sufferers.
The mystery of the mutilated body of
beautiful Ettie Watson, which was for
weeks the horror of New Jersey, has been
solved by the confession of her negro
murderer. The latest outrage of this
kind was in Florida, and resulted in the
death of the lady and the hanging of her
murderer. Georgia, however, leads all
the States in the frequency with which
the crime of rape is committed within her
borders. Twenty-four cases of this crime
are known to have occurred since Janua
ry last. It is impossible to estimate how
many have been concealed. The fearful
penalty of the law does not seem to be
any protection against the lust of negro
brutes. In several Instances when an
rested these criminals have not only con
fessed the crime with which they were
charged, but others which, until then,
had been unknown except to those who
were the sufferers. It is almost too much
to exptect of human nature to try such
brutes in the cold and formal way de
manded by the law and the rules of
court. A short rope and no mercy is the
natural inclination of those who capture
such criminals or who are sufferers
by their acts. The popular verdict
is for their prompt execution.
The people of Georgia, however,
in the 24 cases referred to, ex
cept in two instances, have quietly al
lowed justice to take its course instead of
taking the law into their own hands.
Every decent white and colored man is
interested in upholding the laws, but if
the punishment of such crimes is to be
interfered with by negro societies and ne
gro mobs, there will soon be a condition
of affairs that will permit very little
mercy to be shown to those charged with
the crime of rape. Lynch law, as much
as it is deprecated by every civilized com
munity, will supersede the law adminis
tered by court and jury, even though the
innocent, by mistake, may sometimes suf
fer for the deeds of the guilty.
The Etlcn Convention.
The Senatorial Convention at Eden yes
terday seems to have tried to see how
many ballots it could take without being
exhausted. It certainly made no progress
towards accomplishing the work it had in
hand.
The friends of Chatham’s candidate,
knowing as they did the temper of the
delegates, would have acted with more
wisdom if they had adopted the majority
insteadof the two-thirds rule. At least,
one of the delegates opposed to Chatham’s
candidate expressed that opinion, and it
is probable that he voiced the sentiments
of all who opposed Chatham’s choice.
With the majority rule a choice would
have been made on the first ballot. Now it
is not certain that the real choice
of either the majority or of two-thirds will
lie nominated. A compromise candidate
will probably be the result of the conven
tion’s work. •
The country delegates ought not to feel
aggrieved at the desire of the city dele
gates to name the candidate. The city
has so much more at stake that it seems
reasonable that the city ought to have the
naming of the Senator. The indications
are that a decision will be reached to-day
before as many ballots are taken as were
taken yesterday.
CUKKfcXT COMMENT.
Some Good Words for Tammany.
Washington Star (Dem.).
Tammany existed and wielded a potent
sway in the days when the party of Jefferson
bore the name “Republican;” hence the dual
ehara terof the title itjetill wears. Its Re
publicanism is that of a Jefferson and his
disciples, not that of a Grant, a Hayes or a
Blaine.
A Great Political Blnnder.
Louisville Courier-Journal (Dem.).
Lulu Hurst, the magnetic girl, has made
$lO,OOO out of her magnetism. Taking into
account the short length of time she has been
in the business, Mr. Blaine hasn’t made more
out of his magnetism than this Georgia
maiden. The Equal Rights party evidently
committed a blunder when it nominated
Relva Lockwood and overlooked Lulu.
Gen. Butler’s Suicidal Rope.
Boston Post (Dem.).
Gen. Butler’s journey through the West is
most remarkable, both lor the crowds that
throng to hear him and for the effect that his
speeches produce among the people.— Nets
York Sun. It was just so in Massachusetts
last fall, and yet, if he had attended to the
State’s business and not made a single speech
he would have been re-elected. Give the old
man all the rope he wants. ,
Mulligan tho Modern Damocles.
Xeic York Evening Post ( fnd. Rep.).
\\ hy is Mulligan still treated with so much
respect by the Blaine newspapers' We have
not seen a single attack on him, and yet he is
the real author of all this woe. There have
been dozens of articles on George William
Curtis, but compared to Mulligan as a
fountain of Blaine sorrow, he ia but a rill
to a mightv river. We hope, therefore, the
brethreu will take up Mulligan. Asa subject
t neither Curtis, nor Schurz, nor any of the
Pharisees can hold a candle to him. He is as
full of meat as he can be. He ought to be
attacked and attacked without mercy, an 1
if he is we think we can promise what the
(toys call "lots of fun.” Gen. Hawlev began
the work at New Haven, bnt the newspapers
must take it up.
ITEMS OF INTEREST.
The effect of cheap interior telegraphy has
been felt most happily in France, where the
number of telegrams has multiplied in the
most extraordinary manner. Last year there
were fifty-eight telegrams for each ICO inhab
itants.
Bishop Coxe, of Western New York, says
that during his twenty years of observation
in that field there have been some improve
ments in religion and morality, but the in
crease of lmiucty and infidelity is, on the
whole, appalling. "The most blasphemous
publications are circulated, frightful atheism
is uttered, and gross licentiousness abounds.”
Locusts have lately descended like a storm
upon the central provinces of Spain, and in
Cindal Real every municipal district has been
visited by the scourge. When on the wing the
locu-ts obscure the sun like a cloud, and in
some places trains have been obliged to wait
until the track was cleared. The winged
pests leave hardly a green thing in the dis
tricts upon which they have swept down in
force.
This anecdote took a prize of XI in an Eng
lish weekly paper: “I was out at a small din
ner party one evening recently. A boy, evi
dently from the green grocer’s shop, tad been
engaged to do the waiting. When he placed
two dishes of tarts before the hostess, she,
probably thinking it not correct to know what
was coming, asked: ‘What are these, James?’
Whereupon the boy, pointing first to one dish
and then to the other, replied: ‘Them’s a
penuy each, and Them’s two for three half
pence.’ ”
The Paris Prefecture of Police has just
issued anew order to improve the sanitary
condition of lodging houses. It is forbidden
to let chambers which are not of the regula
tion height and do not supply a certain quan
tity of air to each person. Rooms with more
than four beds must possess a chimney, or
other means of ventilation. There is a pro
hibition against letting cellars in lodging
houses, where inmates are incommoded by
having entire families in subterranean holes,
without light aud air. A corps of special in
spectors is charged with the execution of this
ordinance.
The animals in the Central Park menagerie
suffered greatly during the hot weather, even
the tropical beasts and birds feeling the heat
much more than In their native jungles. The
fur-bearing animals and the eagles were
most affected. The former, however, had fa
cilities for bathing which were denied to the
latter, and the Polar bear was consoled for
the absence of his native icebergg by being
cooled off every hour with a refreshing stream
of water. Though the monkeys are said to
have enjoyed the heat, the fact that they did
not exhibit their usual activity seems to indi
cate that they, too, experienced the feeling of
depression which was the common lot of am
mated nature, both within and without the
menagerie, during the torrid term.
Sons this ago a number of students of tho
“Palatia” Society of the University of Stras
bourg, while on an excursion in the Black
Forest, kicked np a row in a public house at
Durbach, where thsy found a number of ex- I
cursionists. The thug got wind and was
severely comments on by a Strasbourg paper.
The AuWiiu'i* (students’ select council) was
summoned, and at it one Hettner severelv de
nounced the conduct of the students at Dur
bacii. This led to some students challenging
him to a duel with swords. He stid he hadn’t
the time to practice with such a weapon, but
offered to fight with pistols. This was re
fused. The “Palatia” in consequence de
clared him disqualified for membership. The
University Board annulled this decree, but
Hettner, a prey to the false sentiment which
exercises such a tvrsnnv in German universi
ties. killed himself. The event has excited
grave comment in Strasbourg, and the univer
sity authorities have decided to dissolve the
l’alatia Society.
Mr. Emsos has grown somewhat stout
these last three years, and is no longer the
bony alchemist he was when he held his mid
night vigils, wrestling with the obstinate cat
tery at Menlo Park, and with lunches of for
tuitous pastry summoned the demon of indi
gestion. I asked him if he should go to
Philadelphia to witness the fine electrical
show there. “Yes,"’ he said, “probably; as
soon as I get my new phonograph finished. I
have now in the works far the finest talking
machine ever made. It is double grooved and
will receive and utter two voices at once, and
as it runs by electricity and is regulated to
the desired speed it will deliver its message
exactly as it was spoken. One prime trouble
with the old mach r.e was that the pitch and
accents could not be preserved, for the mess
age was sure to be turned on and off at a dif
ferent speed; so that, in singing especially,
tnere w as a constant flattirg and changing of
pitch which produced horrible discords. This
is quite remedied in the duet phonograph, and
will give some important results not attained
before.”
A curious c a se is before the Tribunal in
Paris. A gentleman was getting down
from an omnibus in a crowded thoroughfare,
when he missed his footit-g. nearly fell back
ward, and, to recover his balance, caught
hold of another passenger. The latter, taken
by surprise, also found himself in danger of
falling, and, in his turn, caught hold of a
woman with an infant in her arms, the upshot
being that all four rolled together into the
road. A heavy goods van was coming along
behind, which, had it not been for the prompt
action of the omnibus conductor, who seized
the horse's head, would have run over some
of the prostrate forms. As it was, the gentle
man who was the original cause of the acci
dent, escaped with a few trifling bruises; the
other male passenger falling on him was not
hurt at all, and the infant was equally fortu
nate; but its mother had her arm broken, and
sustained other severe injuries. Which of the
two srentlemen should pay damages is the
question—the one who caught hold of her or
the one who caused him to do so by catching
hold of him.
The sealflsheries in the northwestern part
of Alaska are controlled by the Alaska Com
mercial Company. The contract stipulates
that not more than 100,000 seals a year shall be
killed, for which the company pays the Terri
tory an annual fee ot $55,000, besides $2 for
each skin shipped from the Territory, and 50
cents a gallon for seal oil; also, that the com
pany shall annually furnish free to the in
habitants 25.000 dried salmon, 00 cords of fire
wood, a sufficient quantity of salt, and to
maintain 6uch public schools as are needed.
All others are prohibited from killing in
Alaska anv otter, mink, marten, sable, or fur
seal. Every summer trading schooners, as
they are styled, go out with the avowed pur
pose of meeting the whaling fleet, and bring
ing in the sperm oil. They return with large
barrels, which are entered at the Ounalaska
custom house as oil, and are immediately sent
to san Francisco. The Captain of the man
of-war stationed at Sitka, speaking of the
matter, says: "I would just like to overhaul
one or two of those vessels and find out
whether the oil contained in those barrels
runs out or spreads out flat, and has hair on
one side.”

“Why don’t yon go to work?” said a chari

“I would,” replied the vagrant, “if I had the

asked his hostess. “A knife and fork.”—

Over the Farmer’s Fence.—
O, toothsome melon! O cool, sweet sight!
At glimpse of thee, a dense, dark night,
And a melon field arise to view.
Witli a wild, young, melon-raiding crew,
A shotgun blazing on the air.
And perpendicular standing hair.
And a headlong rush of scared young gents.
And sprawling exit over the fence.
That go-as-you-please race, you can bet,
While memory lasts I’ll not forget.
—Forman Taylor.
Miss Jones was a dashing coquette.
Who outshone all the girls in her suette;
She had dozens ol beaux.
And she wore striped beaux—
Oh! she was a “stunner” vou buette!
She was giddy and vain, you might guess,
And she cared for but little save druess;
She would search the town through
For a No. 2 sliough
Iler No. 5 foot to compruess.
She loved a young man in Aux Cayes—
A sailor boy gallant and gayes;
But he drank, it was said,
And was carried to baid
With his boots on each night, by the wayes.
So she cast him aside for a suitor.
Of music and dancing a tuitor,
He waxed his moustacne,
And was thought quite a maohe;
And his ringlets—Oh! what could be cuitor’
He was rather to free with his tongue,
And he wagged both his ears when hesongue,
But she gave him her heart,
And she thought he was smeart.
Though but few greater fools were unhongue.
They eloped on a clear April night,
When the orchards with blossoms werp
whight;
Now she cries not for style
She’s been married nwliyle.
And is cured of such foolishness, qutght.

ROSSA CUT FOR CLEVELAND.
His Paper Advocate* the Election of a
Democratic President
All the Irish, says O’Donovan Rossa’s
United Irishman, are going for the Re
publican party. So say the Irish papers
that are bought up. We make bold to tell
the Republican party the big mistake
they make in supposing that because
they purchase a few newspapers they pur
chase the Irish vote. The Democrats are
becoming united on the Presidential can
didate, and it is very likely the Democrats
will win this time. The country seems
to be tired of the rule of the Republican
party. During Its twenty-four years of
administration the character of the nation
at home and abroad has fallen so low that
the name of “American citizen” is a
thing sptoken of only with contempt.
We have seen this Republican adminis
tration give England permission to arrest
Irishmen in the city of New York, and to
hold them in prison there because Eng
land “suspected” those Irishmen bad
committed some political offense in Ire
land. We have seen the Republican ad
ministration in Washington erant war
rants for the arrest of P. J. Sheridan in
New York because England “suspected’’
that he was connected with the killing of
two of the English Governors in Ireland.
We have seen the Republican administra
tion in Washington give the New York
post office into the hands of English spies,
that those spies may have the run ot let
ters passing through the post. We see
England doing everything she likes to do
with this Republican administration of
ours and naturally and instinctively we
find ourselves in the humor to arrest Eng
land’s march through the channels of the
nation’s life.
We have a lively recollection of every
administration of the Republican party
during the last six terms, and from the
first term to the last term—from the day
Gen. Michael Corcoran was court-mar
tialed for refusing to parade his regiment
through the streets of New York in honor
of England’s Prince of Wales, to the day
the present President honored the Queen
of England by presiding at the opening of
the Brooklyn bridge on her birthday, we
have seen nothing but toadying to En
gland and Englishmen. That salutation
to the English flag at Y'orktown looked
like an invitation to England to lay her
wires to take charge of the coun ry again;
it was an insult to the memory of our
martyred dead; and for no other cause
but because of that insult and outrage,
no American, with Irish blood or any
other manly blood in bis veins, should
vote for keeping in power a party who
thus outrage the sacred memory of those
who fought and fell for th ; freedom we
enjoy.
BLAINE’S TRIP TO OHIO.
The Magnetic Statesman to be Made a
Part of Cincinnati’s Big Show:
Other interests, says a Washington
special, besides those of the Republican
party are to be benefited by the proposed
visit of Blaine and Logan to Cincinnati.
Indeed, Information has been received
here to the effect that the Republican
leaders did not originate the matter, but
that it was started as a scheme to put dol
lars into the pockets ot various shrewd
business men, both Democrats and lie
publicans. The parties originally most in
terested in securing the presence of the
candidates were the managers of Cin
cinnati’s big show, of the rail
roads running into that city, and
ol the organization known as the
Society of the Cincinnatus. The
latter is a recently formed association,
whose object is to manage a street show
ot about the same character as the New
Orleans Mardi Gras testival. It occurred
to somebody that il Blaine and Logan
could be persuaded to visit Cincinnati
they would add immensely to the attrac
tions of the exposition and the street
parade and would draw an extra crowd of
spectators, all of whom would have to
pay for their sight-seeing. Steps were at
once put the brilliant scheme in
to execution. The leaders of the Blaine
forces were approached, and they fell in
with the project at once. No arguments
were needed to convince them of the de
sirability of a visit from the magnetic
statesman. Mr. Blaine’s trip to Ohio is
thus to serve the double purpose of en
riching the exhibition, the Society of the
Cincinnatus, aud the railway managers,
and giving the Republican leaders a
chance to work up a boom for the candi
dates in a place where such an institu
tion is sadly needed.
THE CHOLERA IN NAPLES.
The Rapidity with Which the Victims
Die.
The attack of the cholera on Italy, says
a New York Sun dispatch, is now admit
ted to be far severer than that on Franco.
Almost incredible stories are told of the
rapidity with which it has carried off its
victims. In some families four or five
members have been swept off together.
An old woman and a boy, falling together
in the street in Naples, were both taken
up dead; a lady seized with vomiting
while at mass died on reaching home. In
fact, death in many cases has occurred
within ten minutes of the first symptoms.
Many persons have died within three or
four hours, and the fatal cases have rarely
lasted more than live or six hours.
The plague has led, according to all ac
counts, to a revival of religious feeling
so strong that the Archbishop himselt
has had to discourage religious proces
sions, as tending to increase disease. The
gambling spirit has also received a great
impetus. Thus, one day fifty-two mothers
rushed to a school and took away fifty
one children, and everybody played these
numbers in the government lottery, anil
all won. On another day the numbers 3,
4 and 22 corresponded to current events
in the streets, and were played extensive
ly, and all three came cut. The result
was a loss of 2,000,000 francs by the gov
ernment, a general debauch by the lucky
inhabitants, and a violent Increase of the
cholera. The King is the reigning hero
of Europe, and George Augustus Sala, the
celebrated journalist, gives as one of his
many virtues that he wears in public in
Rome a low-crowned hat.
