THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 15, 1867.
A Wvlle Novt.l.
In Ms new magazine iSf". 2'tiu Anthony
Trollop e discourses of tbe pres. rit domination
the novel In periodical literature. lie says:
"A there are many critics of tbe literature
of the day who declare tbat magazines are
slmcst worthless brcauie they are filled wllh
j adrtlnir. so are there others who are equally
i ijioFrd to them, became none of them we
lehcve not one Is now lobe found unpolluted
tytbe ully enthusiasm of the romancer. The
i iiltor, however, who would cater successfully
lir tbe public, whatever tuay be hla own taote
M.d Imlirnicnt In such matter, must provide
that for his reader which bin readers demaud
Hid will certainly obtain, whether he
provide it, or whether others do bo. It
niay da boldly asserted that no uiaea
rinc couM live at present that refused to
nyale iti Irlcrtrls fiom month to month with at
h unt one serial tale, and that the mngnzknc which
trvst to two mch works will fnre bettci than its
neighbor which lruts only to one. Theprertcli
11 jr of the dav Is done bv the novelist, mid the
1. cHnns wlilrli he teaches arc those to which
men and women will listen. Hucb. was not the
citse eityjenrs ni.'o, when Scott, though etill
iiiilkiiowr, viss in hii prime it wn not the case
thirty years wro, when i'.ulwer and Disraeli and
junii 5" Miid Vrd li iid already become popular
s niMStt'M of fiction, and when Dickers was
ronmienelntf his career. Novels were indeed
rct, but were not a necessity In every house
hold as they are now. Nor can any one cay
that the novelet w ill still be the preacher of the
day when thirty years more shrill have passed
over us. The poet may then be In the ascen
dantor, more probably, the writer of the
ceiei.titic esBy j or It may be that the booksel
ler ol the day will And a volume of sermons from
the pen of tome eloquent divine to bo tbo stock
that moves ltsilf most quickly on his shelves.
Such bin ben the cre, and may ba the case
hpiin. in Tin- nieuimmo me editor ol the maza
rine ot to-day must provide for tbe readers of
the day that class ol literary iood which they
lequlro.
It is not probable that this present editor
tdiould feel hinipclf called upon to quarrel with
the pul lie tnte In this respect. It has been his
humble, but not unpleasant task, as a man of
kiters, to sine, in prose, lotg love-dittles for his
readers, an ' i,r hag silnc them till the sinplng of
i mem uas oecome a second nature 10 mm. lie,
1 has now pit topether another, which he will
I Wsrhlo forth from month to month aililtvnnt
Indeed composed w holly of love strains; a slight
Ktory, in which he has attempted to describe
how love and ambition between them may cause
tbe heart of a man to vacillate and uiako his con
luct unsteady. His hero is not very heroic, and
1,'bls leader, should he be happy enoupU to tlnd
in cm, win ue mica into no heaven or admira
tion or of wruth, by the virtues or by the
vices of their new acquaintances."
HIS CEL TAXEOUS ITEMS.
Hints for Pedestrian. A 1'aris physician,
Ir. l'bo bns, Las been Btulyiug afresh, tho
causes of sore feet on tbe march, and the best
means of preventing them. In addition to
advice as to tbe shape of the boots, be recom
miuds the repeated employment, during the
march, of cold ablutions of tbe feet. Walkers,
be says, should atop when they pass runulng
Streams or stagnant water long enough to take
off their boots and to put tludr feet in the
water for a minute or a minute and a half.
In inhabited places Vessels of water may be
procured for this purpose, and the feet kept
in till the sensation of heat or burning has
disappeared. If any blister form, a thread of
wool or cotton should be passed through it,
and loosely tied. Thus the lluid escapes, but
the epidermis is preserved a precaution by
Which severe subsequent pain is avoided.
Excoriations are best treated by a soft oxide
of ?inc ointment (made with benzoated lard
and a little glycerine). The shoes should be
Boft and supple, although sufliciently thick.
A dt zeu or two small nails in the solo, where
it wears most, sullice to preserve it. The
leather may be softened by rubbing a mixture
of linseed oil and oxide of lead or of lard.
Stockings should always be worn.
Shrkwd Way oh Catching Thieves. The
I'aiis papers reveal a new style of theft by
which jewellers are losers. The thief enters
the shop of a dealer in diamonds and pearls,
and asks to Bee some small unset stones, lie
is well dressed, and wears colored spectacles.
The stones are laid before him, spread ou
paper, lleiug very near-si;bted, as bis glasses
prove, be id obliged to biiug bis eyes so near
to tbe gems tbat be can pick them up with
the tip of liis tongue, and be keeps them, in
his moutb until out of tbe shop. If be fears
detection, which seldom occurs, be swallows
Lis treasure whence the slang name of
"Swallow it raw," given to this class by the
thieves' fraternity. One of them was caught
tbe other day. The diamond merchant, put
upon bis guard, said be had no Htiiall stones,
but would have a large supply the next day.
A policeman was . iu waiting: the diamonds
were laid out upon paper previously impreg
nated with an extremely bitter drug, which,
when the thief put his tongue to them, acted
so violently on hia sense of taste that ue in
stantly rejected what he bad just taken. The
policeman appeared, and tbe thief was taken
in the act.
Opium Eating is Ekglakd. Dr. Hawkins, of
King's Lynn, baa published an alarming re
port respecting the prevalence of opium eat
ing in tbe fen country, iu Kncland. Oue Lynn
chemiBt sells an average of one hundred aud
seventy pounds of solid opium tn the year,
besides correspoudingiuautities of laudauum.
Indeed, it is said that half the quantity im
ported into England ifl consumed iu Lincoln
shire, Norfolk, and Leicestershire. The re
onlt. is a ereat mortality of children, and a
marked degeneration of the human race in
those districts.
An Old Miraclk I! epeated, "A rumor was
current yesterday," says the Italia, ot Naples,
of Septemler 19, ''that rit. Jannarlua would
not this vear perform bis accustomed miracle,
in consequence of the heretics aud excommu
nicated persons who are at tue presem muiiwui
formine imuious biota against the Holy Father.
The Saint would not, however, inllict such an
affront on bis native city lor tue lew nair
brained men who are now committing Heaven
knows what sacrileire. . This moruinK, indeed,
Hi. Jannarins rose earlier than usual, and at
half-past 'J the blessed blood was in a state of
linuufaction in the miraculous vials. A can
non shot announced to the twelve quarters of
Naples that fct. Jauuarius bad performed, the
miracle promptly, which means that all the
graces of the Lord will be poured down ou
niipies.

Saturday: "The superior film I it it rtf (hn orator
of tho tiihujlkill ut i'hilaiieinuia, chemically

Tiei1 kbIIoW Tbe report, in referring to the
mesr nce of sulphuric acid, states -that it is tin
in larue ounntitie.u in the
Upper witem 01 tUe river, aud at actiuyiuu
Haven as much as ten grains to the pal Ion have
been detected; but fortunately the whole of tins
actd is neutralized, or miner converted into sul
phates ot lime and magnesia, by the waters of
several (dreams, which, flowing thioupb lime
stone formations, discbarge their waters Into
tbe river at and above Heading, and even at that
place the water has been found to test alkaline."
In reierenre to impure drainage In the Tiver,
it is stated "that much the lareest proportion
of objectionable matter Is now thrown into the
liver at Manayunk, both as town draluape aud
refuse from mills, of various characters, and as
this Is the hiphest point upstream where we
find Impurities in lsrte quamitie floin into
the pool, the first question to decide is as to the
practicability of pieventlng this sewnue pollut
ing the water In tbe river." The committee
siale that this matter could bo carried ott by a
eewcr along the eastern shore of the river.
As to the supply of water, this report states
"that is found tbat tbe increased demands for
water do not obey tbo same laws ai that oT the
por ulalion, ench jear showing that a larger
supply is required than the acces.-ion to the
uunibcr of inhabitants would appear to indi
cate. The increase in the population for the
hint fen jeais precedit g lbCO was about 7070, at
whu;b rate the population now would be 788,871,
and, taking tho ame rale of Increase for the
next twerty years, we should have In 1887
a population of 2,278.(180. The Increase in the
quantity of water supplied in the last ten ycurs
has been about 88 per cent., at which rate the
average supply in 1887 would be 92,725 760 gal
lons per day, and the maximum required during
the tummer months would probably be H5.G22.
3C7 palloDS per dav."
The flow of the "Schuylkill has been set down
at about 400,000,000 gallons per day, but during
ten months of the year would probably be at
least five times greater. The report estimates
the available waters of the wholo valley of the
river to be fifty per cent, of the annual rain fall,
making tbe whole flow equal to ninety billion
cubic feet a year, or an average of eighteen mil
lions per day. It is suggested that this waste
water could be made available by establishing
P0i Is or lakes of storage at several points oil
tho river, in which the superfluous waters could
be kept for gradual use.
The committee, in.conclusion, offer the foil dw-
inp suii(fcHiiuus:
first, liy the construction of a sewer from
Manayunk to a point below Fairmount dam.
.second. By the improvement of the water-
power to its fullest extent.
Third. By the erection of large auxiliary
engines, lobe used during the dry weather of
summer, which might to some extent be so
arranged as to be able to raise the water from
below the dam, in case any accident should
occur to that important structure.
fourth. Additional eneines ot Wee size ut.
the Hpring Garden Works, capable of supplying
hip l't'iaware reservoirs as wen as toeir own.
Mlth. I he construction of verv lame distri
buting reservoir or reservoirs.
bixth. The building of large retainiug. com
pensating reservoir upon some of the s'reams at
the headwaters of the river.
