The Traitorous Act Upheld by the Church Organs of Utah, Salt Lake City, July 6.—~The indignas tion over the Mormons’ act in placing the national flag at half-mast on the Fourth continues unabated. Excited croups of Gentiles discussed the affair all day During the day of the Fourth an old veteran stood in front of the city hall looking at the trailing flag. Tears streamed from his eyes. Shaking his fist at the Mormon policemen who were watching to see that the flag was not raised, he exclaimed: “How long, O, Lord ! how long!” and declared that he would leave the “nest of treason” within forty-eight hours, Horace Eldredge, President of the Deseret National Bank, the United States depository here, says the haif-mast is the proper place for the flag, “as we have not more than half our rights,” The Provo Enquirer, a Mormon paper had, on the Fourth, a coffin, with the inscription, “Inde- pendence—died July 4, 1885” The Deseret News, the church organ, to-night fully justities the half-masting of the flag in a five-colaomn editorial, conclu- gively showing that it was under church authority, and claiming that it was rishi to do it, “because liberty is dead i Utah.” mss A Ro ama AS TO MRS, GRUNDY, This potent personage has been als lowed to rale too despotically in the feminine world, and the ladies say that it is time her tyranny received a check.

A New York paper has begun suit against several delinquent subscribers under the United Btates postal laws, which say, “the taking of a newspaper and the refusal to pay for the same renders the person liable to crime inal prosecution as a thief, and a person guilty of the same can be punished as if he had stolen goods to the amount of the subscription.” Postmasters are also liable for the price of subscription for allowing papers to accumulate in their offices when subscribers bave moved away or refused to take them faom the office, Almost every person has some form of gcrofulous po:son latent in his veins, When this develops in scrofulous sores, ulcers or eruptions, or takes the form of rhenmatism, or organic diseases, the suf- fering that ensues is terrible beyond de- scription, Hence the gratitude of those who discover, as thousands yearly do, that Aver's Sarsaparilla will thorooghly eradicate this evil from the system, sna Ap sf. fp ining lit ecm STORM AT LOCK HAVEN.

Atkins, of Girard, writes: “I never adie to THE DEADLY TEA. W. Mattien Willimms, in a series o articles on food and cookery in *‘ Know ledge,” hes finally come to tea, and there he hits all civilized people in a tender spot. In truth, tho scientific view of what ought to eaton, and how it should bo prepared, is so at variance with what we do eat, and the manner of its prep- aration, that one is led to marvel there is sound digestion and an unimpaired stomach in all civilization. Asa mat ter of fact, in view of the startling revelations as to the deadly character of our customury food, it is to be wondered nt that we are not an extinct race. Ac- cording to Mr. Williams, of all the life- shortening, brain-destroying articles which man is using, tea is one of the most dangerous, destructive and deadly. This is the infusion which Cibber apos- trophizes in fervent words : “Tea! thou soft, thou sage, thou sober, and vener- able liquid; thou female tongue-running, smile-smoothing, heat-opening, wink- tipping cordial, to whose glorious insi, pidity I owe the happiest moment of my life, let me fall prostrate,” Nor is Cibber the only writer who has invoked panegyric to ald in expressing admiration of this . ‘coup which cheers but does not inebriate;"” literature is interspersed with laudations of the bowl over which fair women gossip, whose existence is far greater than the area of civilization, whose inspiration cheers the souls of the millions of China, and carries warmth through all portions of the frozen steppes of Siberia and Russia. The active principle of tea is a “‘crystal- line alkaloid, the eins, a compound belonging to the same class as strych. nine, and a number of similar vegetable poisons.” This is the character of the drink which is served at least once a day on every table in civilization. That which delicate women by the million sip is a deadly alkaloid, of the same class as strychnine, a drug so deadly that the mere mention of its name sends a shudder through the listener as would the sudden appearance of some hideous reptile. “The * essential action of tea is to waste the system, or consume food by promoting vital action which it does not support; and worse than this is the fact that while arsenic, a deadly poison, will produce the same effect on the human system as tea—that is, it, like tea, checks the waste of tissue, and has the effect to make food appear to go further.” The writer takes up the matter of tea stimnlation, and shows that it acts the game as tobacco, the betelnut, hasheesh in certain quantities, and various other produces of exaltation, all of which Mr. Williams lumps together underthe head of ** vice-drugs.” wm——— A AI ——————— FIRE HISTORY OF THE BRIGADE, Of the measures taken for the suppres. sion of that stupendous conflagration, the great fire of London, the only appliance with which we are concerned as at all approaching modern gear was a squirt of three feet long, capable of dis- charging half a gallon of water, an instrument presumably of some service, since by act of Parliament of 1668 one was ordered to be kept in every ward, and for the working of which the Alder. man of that ward was made directly responsible. If he did not set it in action himself he was at any rate bound to see it done, as nowadays the Bheriff| who has always been held responsible for the execution of criminals, must either himself discharge the last office of the law or provide an efficient substitute. This squirt was the first step towards fire engines in England, though for some few years they had been already known in Germany ; forin 1657 Hautsch, of Nuremburg, invented a kind of sledge water cistern, the pumps of which were worked by 20 or 30 men, a machine subsequently improved upon by the brothers Ver Heyden, of Amsterdam, when in 1672 they intro- duced the flexible hose, the whole the prototype of the manual fire engine still in use. Of these cumbrous German arrangments the insurance companies, dating in this country from 1681, were the first to avail themselves, beginning with the Hand in Hand in 1609, and in 1720 including the Sun, the Union, the Westminister, the London, and the Royal Exchange, all of which by that time had men of their own, and engines amounting altogether to 30. In the meantime, by an actof 1707, each parish was directed to keep a fire engine, snd a system of fire rewards was created for the first three to arrive on the spot—380s. for the first, 20s. for the second, 10s. for the third, and a sum not exceeding 10s. for the first turncock. In 1774, by the 14 Geo. IIL eo. 78, there were requived to be in every parish two engines, one large and one small, a leathern pipe and five ladders, the whole under the management of the beadle and charity boys, of whom, when at work, George Cruikshank has made a well-known drawing. How far the act was enforood there is nothing to show, for there is nc record of prosecution, indictment, or penaltids. The attendance of the engines was not compulsory outside of their own parish. and indeed the whole to have besn for many year practically « dead later, with the excep tion of Hackney, where a brigade was maiutained by « half penvy rate abr cost of £500 a year. min A AP on An lrishman says he oat see no earthly reason why woman should not be allowed to become medical men, tata a er FOR N.
