But the I'urss man scorns to have got tbo
last word after nil. It is a new render
ing of tho old story of tho patriarch
Isaac; "Tbe hands nre the hands of
Esau, (Aleck), but the voice is tho voico
of Jacob, (Emory Smith)." Tho Times
anticipated its own disinheritance on
Sunday by proclaiming editorlnlly that

II is hardly to bo presumed that

Judge Black regarded as ouo of the most
important prodaotious of bis life, nnd
tho logical assumption is thnt some swift

Aleck Bhould "get left" iu the spiritual

Horacjj Giieeley brought little Into
this world and carried very little away
with hlin. It is plensnut to think then
thnt the beautiful and barren tract where
he learned "nil be knew nbout farming"
is now s.ifo in the possession of his fami
ly. On last Saturday Miss Gabrlelle
Greeley bought tho Cbnppnqna estate of
ber father, for $10,000, hal! its estimated
value. Two neighboring formers wanted
tho place, but tbey would not bid against
Miss Greeley. When the auctioneer
opened the sale Bhe called from her ve
hicle. "Ten thousand dollars," and
Mr. Ilaight tried for half an hour to get
on additionnl bid of oven S10 more. The
farm, scventy-seven acres, originally cost
Mr. Greeley about tbo sum it sold for.
In Improvements bo laid out overSTO,
000. Half of tbo purchase money goes
to tho children of Miss Greeley's dead
sister, less about onc-tbird that Colonel
Smith will receivo, his wifo having died
intestate Tho purchaser snj-3 sbo has
not decided whether or not to occupy tho
old homestead, but Bhe wns determined
it should bo kept in tbo Greeley family.
Westward the conrso of polygamy
takes its way. On lobt Sunday afternoon
CS2 now members of tho faith landed
from tho steamship Nevada on a pier nt
the North River, New York. The band
of Biints comprised 269 Britains, 10G
Swiss nnd Gormnus, 281 Scandinavians
nnd 23 re'.nrning missionaries. "Every
immigrant," said tho Mormon Secretary,
"paid his or her passage out. No aid
is afforded them by tbe Mormon Church.
The majority have a little money; enongh
to establish themselves in' America.
They will locate in sixteen towns of
Utah. All wo do is to protect them
while travelling frcm Liverpool to

community works at present Is to gain
the admission of Utah ns a State, then to
divide it in two, and in that way to gain
ns much political power ns possible.
Ono great hopo for a successful attack
npon the iniquity arises from tho fact
that n railroad, now established through

The highly sensational revivalists of
Erie have sent Iwo people, a father and
daughter, to the iusane asylum, making
tho first almost a murderer, We do not
believe that all the indirect good that
mny bo accomplished by theso revivals
will ontwelgh this ono direct evil. There
is rarely, If ever, a revival nt which some
of the attendants do not eventnally be.
como insino, nor is this to bo wondered
at whon it is borno in mind thnt young
girls nnd weak women of naturally hys
terical temperaments form the bulk of
the congregations. Upon their fears the
terrors of hell, whicb.revivalist ministers
love to depict in the most lurid bses,
produce nu ngony of distraction. It is a
matter of much doubt whether revivals,
crusades, salvation armies nnd their ilk
over nccompllsh much permanent good.
II tbey do, why must they be bo often

HOW CONSUMPTION MAY BE SPEEAD
Societies have been formed in England
and America for tbo collecting of actual
facts of disease by mefans of printed
quef lions addressed to physicians, nsk
iDg for their experience of tbe particular
malady which may at the time bo under
Investigation. The first volnmo of
records contains important information
relating to ncuta pneumonia. The New
York Sun makes tbe following comments
on tbo subject. Tbe summary of a Urge
number of replies concerning tho com
municnbllily of consumption points
strikingly to the conclusion that phthisis
is a communicable disease. Two bun
drod and Mxly-ono observer report one
or more instances in which it wns com
nwuicalbd; 158 of theso cases wtre
passed from wife to husband or from
husband, to wife, and 81 were observed
between members of tho same family.
The truth of the statement is fully con
firmed, however, by tho facts that a few
cases aro reported in which persons un
related infected ono another, and that
when this had been the case a elo30 in
timacy bad existed between tbe parties.
No caso was reported wbero the medical
attendant of a consumptive was infected,
though nurses seem to have been so fre
quently. A long period mnst trapse before tbo
usefulness of tbo collective investigation
of disease can bo fully developed, bnt
tbe examples given show something of
tbe significance nud scope of the move
ment. With America nnd Germany
joining lianas In tills matter Willi Urent
Urltaln, whose inventluations will extend
also Into Africn, India, nnd Australia, it
will not be doubted that nn nmotiut of
medical kuowledgo will be elicited that
must prove .of tbe first importance to tho
welfato of the bnmnu race. .

Tho Senatorial Committos on Labor
nnd Education, still continues its inves
ligations but everybody is getting tired
of it. Senator Blair who Is tbo moving
spirit of tho body is as ignorant of tb
real object of the work of tho Committee
ns bis nssoclatos. Hu dots bot know
what questions to nsk, and bis system
of investigation consists in letting every
ono who wishes, nppear beforo tbe com.
nllttco nnd talk himself to exhortation
Tbo amount of crudo speculation nnd
distorted facts which has been garnered
iu by Senator Blair Is simply ridiculous
Evou John Swiuton of the Sun, could
not resist tho temptation of talking rub.
blsh. Ho said that few reporters and
correspondents earn less than $5,000
year, and n great number go ns high as
$25,000; that fow editors nnd lending
editorial writers get less than $10,000 a
year, nnd that bo far as proprietors of
Influential newspapers are concerned,
their earnings reach over $100,000 a
year.
Mr.Swlnlon may derive his knowledge
from the journalism which is ostensibly
devoted to tbo interests of labor, nnd if
the workers on it were paid such salaries
ns he claims, it explains very satisfactor
ily why tho papers havo constantly to
pass around tho bat for support at labor
meetings.- Now, I have nn extended no
quaintance ninong nowspnper men, and
of tbo better class nt that, nnd I can

It are tbe veriest slaves of tho pen. They
bnvo to bo at it day nnd night almost
and if tbey have families they can do
voto but littlo attention to them. As re
gnrds the ten or twenty-Are thousand
dollar men, tney are hpeclaltsls or cor
respondents like Gath, whose work is bo
extended that it is almost machine made,
nnd is subdivided among subordinates
whom tho employer must pay, A can
yass of newspaper offices will show thnt
there nre more men in really responsible
positions, whose incomes do not exceed
tweuly.five or tbirty'dollars a week- than
perhaps Mr. John Swintou hns any id.es
of. John Swlnton's statements aro
harmful because tbey will encourage a
lot of young men, principally under
graduates to rush into a profession where
the goldon apples nre not alono few, but
where they frequently lurn icto dust in
one's hands, and wherein tbey will in.
evitably ruin their prospects and their
lives.
Although the stock market has im
provea considerably it is still In a very
depressed condition, and tbo probabili
ty is thnt it will continue so. "The fact
of tbe matter is," said a well known
Wall Street man to me, "tho peoplo at
largo have grown tired, of speculation.
and they are settling down to earn mon.
ey by legitimate means. During the last
few weeks there have been tempting op
portunitles, but the people passed tbcm
by and wero not even Interested when
they saw what fino chances they had
missed. Now without a general publio
speculation thero can be no market.
broker's market is only a fictitious af
fair, and its eiistenco always reminds
mo of a pack of starving wolves devour
ing ono another. Of course a number of
flash brokers will havo to give up their
turnouts and gaudy bouses, and their
wiyes will have to wear less expensive
clothes and jewelry than tbey have nc
oustomed themselves to, bat the street
and business nt large will be benefited,'
Legitimate business on tbe other band
flourishes In an unparalleled manner.
In tho dry goods district the streets i.ro
liued night and day with trucks and
boxes to such an extent as to mako traf
fic almost impossible. Tho Astor House,
tho Manhattan, tho St. Nicolas, the
Prcscott and tbo Grand Central Hotels
are literally thronged with drummers
aud buyers from all parts of tbe conn
try. This is a healthy sign, nnd bids
fair to bring about a general revival of
affairs, of which wo stand so much In
need.
One of the most peculiar features in
tho fashions for ladies this fall is tbe
prevalence of all tho shades of yellow
from cold to brouzo in the color of ma
tcriah used. While walking on Fifth
Avenue last Sunday, I counted no less
than a dozen black satin frocks sur
mounted by gold tight filling bodices,
Thd hat worn was generally a black body
wilb gold trimmings and feathers. The
shape was generally liko n jockej's cap,
Seen from a distance the figures remind
ed one of a sceuo on tbe stage in a spec.
tacular play, let, at tbe same time,
these bodices look very ntlractivo in the
sun-light. For a plain girl tbey aro very
trying, however, as they only set off her
homeliness.
I nttended tbe first night of tbe new
jockey opera, tho Merry Duchess, at the
Standard Theatre, last Saturday evening,
A no musio is yery trnstiy, ana 1 am
afraid that thejbest points of tho libretto,
which bristles over wilb racing illustra
tions, are lost on the general public.
Great as tbe fondness for the turf has
grown to bo in this country, it Is not yet
v.batit is In England, and thus, though
tho opera had an extraordinary tun in
London, I do not think that it will main
tain tbe boards long in this country.
Tbo libretto satirizes the idolatry of
fashionable jockeys which prevails in
England. Tho Dutchess of Epsom
Downs (Seliua .JJolaro.) falls in love
with Freddie Bowman (Mr. Nash,) the
fashionable English jockey, at whoso
hhrine nil England burns incense. Sho
has made a bet of ber bead against 10,-
000 with Lord Johnnie, n distasteful
suitor of hers, thnt her mare Dainore)
would win tbe St, Leger, and has so-
cured Freddie to ride. Desplto any
number of plots and schemes, Freddie
eventually wins, and becomes her hus
band. Selinn Dolaro, is as usual,capUal.
In fatt a better representative for the
part could not bo found, and Mr, Nash
bits eff tbo superciliousness and self as
sertion ol tbo modem crack jockey to
perfection.
Tbe literary market is very dull at
present, nnd there will bo no revival un
til tbe latter part of October. The pub
lishers have not ytt even mado any an
icMinciincnlspt importance. With com
petition ainoog them as fierce as it is at
proent, one Is waiting to Beo what tbo
other will do, before making any an
nouncement himself.
Coaching to Saratoga, will bo ono of
tbe features of fashionable autumn life.
Tho old stage road 'to Albany will be
worked again, nnd It Is certainly onegof
the most picturesque drives to be had in
tho country. It is lined with trees, and
skilled with charming residences along
its entire extent, and as every arrange
ment will be made for tbo comfort of tbo
passengers nt tbo different stopping
places, tbero is no doubt that n journey
in tho old fashioned manner will bring
back tbo roses to tho choeks of mnny a
lady of fashion, who bar lost them dur

Our Washington Letter.
f Fsou our Srr.cui, CownwroRrmst.
WAsmxoTON.D. O., Sept. 10, 1883.
In round numbers there aro 110,000
office-holders dependent for their brend
and oleomargarine npon the treasury of
the United Slates, and who receivo sal
aries ranging from $15 per month to
$G0,000 per nnnnm, the compensation of
the President. So much hns been said
concerning tho extravagant salaries paid
to our higher government official, In
connection with the civil service reform
discussions, a few comparisons between
tbe salaries paid in this country nnd
tboso paid to officials in similar BtatioDs
In England may be o'f general interest.
For instance, Lord Chief Justice Cole
ridge, now visiting this countiy,rcceivcs
a salary twico ns lnrge ns that of tbo
President of our Uftv-fivo millions of
people, nnd nearly ten times larger than
that received by the ohief justice of tbe
United States. The lord mayor of Lon
don nnd tho lord lieutenant of Ireland
each receive a salary larger by S10.0CO
per year than that received by our ohief
executive, Wbile wo pay our ministers
to London and Paris aud Berlin S17.G0O
per annum, and consider that tho very
exaltation of extravagance, tho ambassa
dors accredited to this couutry from
those nations receivo nearly, if not quite,
three fold more than wo pay, and the
Itussian minister reccitcs more than four
fold tbo extravagant figure that bas kept
us in a grumble for thirty years. To our
second-class ministers, such ns represent
us nt Madrid and Vienna nnd Home, we
'pny $12,000 per annum, wbilo England
pays to her representatives to those
countrios $27,500.
There is yot another class of ministers
to whom wo pny n salary of J10,000,sneh
as those wbo represent us iu tbo South
American States, nnd England makes no
distinction between them nnd tbo Aus
trian nnd Italian missions, so far ns com
pensation is concerned, And so it is
with our consuls nnd our secretaries' of
legation nnd other attaches, to whom wo
pay the mnximnm salary of $5,000, aud
England perpetuates het', through n life
time by giving them just double thnt
sum. Wo pny our cabinet officers $8,000
per annum, which is just nbout tho
amount tho Eugllsh premier receives per
month, nnd the comptroller of tho treas
ury works Cor tbe same amount, $5,000
per year, that the chancellor ol the, Eng-';
llsh exohcqner receives per month. Tbe
postmaster at New York gets $8,000 per
annum, and his confrere at London gets
ns many pounds, or nenrly five times ns
much, wbile tho same officer at Liver
pool, Manchester, nud n dozen other
English citi s.rcceivcs more than double
the corporation of tho postmaster of
our metropolis. The general of the army
gets $13,500 per year, which would
scarcely be considered pin-money for tbo
head of tho British army; nor would tbe
admiral of tbo English navy be nblo to
keep up the dignity of his position upon
sueh a pittance ns tbe $11,000 per year
that we dole out to the head of our pow,
erful'seu forces.
With most of tbo officials to whom we
pay what wo nre prone to consider ex
travagant salaries, there is an absolute
struggle for existence, because of the
demauds upon them for hospitalites, of
ficial courtesies, and all thnt sort of
thing. Iu fact mnny of them, nnd par
ticularly tbo cabinet officers, expend
much moro than tho salaries they re
ceive every year in responding to those
social requirements. None of them, not
even the President, is oxpeeted to lay by
anything for a rainy day out of these
salaries, and we all know with what a
pitiful disdain the whole American peo
ple look upon a recently retired Presi
doJt, who is suspected to have econo
mized in the household expenses of tbe
executive mansion so to salt down about
one-half of his entiro saiary. There is,
of course, no good reason why wo of this
plain, democratic, modern republic
should especially emulate aristocratic
and wealthy England in tbe matter of
official salaries, no matlcc how powerful
or well able wo may be to do so. These
comparisons nie mado simply ns a matter
of interest. Yet we ought to pay hi jh
officials enongh to meet all tLo proper
demands of life in their positions.though
it is a curious fact that, inadequate as
present salaries are said to be, there n
no difficulty in finding any number of
men willing aud anxious to take tbe
places. It is, however, n fact that if we
carry tbe tubj.-ct a step farther, and
make comparisons between official salar
ies and those in commercial life in our
couutry, we shall find tbe discrepancies
almost as great in somo' of tbe higher
grades. There are presidents of insur
ance and railway companies wbo receive
salaties as- great or greater, than that of
the President of the United States; aud
In many other positions where iutegrily
and ft high order of nbilitv is required,
ninth more is paid than for correspond
ing servico under tbe government. But
when wo come down to the lower grades,
such as clerkships, etc., which compriso
tho great mass of the 110,000 abovn re
ferred to, we find that salaries averago
considerable better than in commercial
positions; so that iu tbe acgregato Uncle
Sam pays his servants ns much as. or
more than, the same number of men of
equal character nnd opacity could com
mand in salaries iu any other walk of
me in tnia or any otner conntiy.
