John Chamberlain, the notorious gambler of Long Uranch, has purchased the late residence of the British Minister, with the view of turning it iuto a fashionable: "club-house." and John Morrisscy.who runs the Democratic party of c w 1 ork during the temporary retire ment of Tweed, is understood to be prc- i;rt. paring anotner resort or similar cnaiacicr. There is nothing like anticipaiug the re j (puiremcnts of the future when, as in this instance, one knows precisely what they are. "Horrors on horrors accumulate." The moral people of that superlatively pious and virtuous city, Philadelphia, have been rudely shocked at the discovery of a horri- hie case of malpractice at a lying-in hospi tal in their midst. The body of tlie unfor tunate victim, a young women of lino form and handsome face, was traced to a medi- j cal college on .Mtun street, wnere it was I found ou the dissecting table, while a trunk, in which it had been packed iu sawdust, ( with the legs" pinioned behind the neck, was found beside the table.

New York, like London aud Paris, has its thousauds upon thousands of homeless, houseless, uncared-for children who live, the I. ord only knows how aud where. They are the oll'spriug of either drunken, criminal, or unfortunate parents, who cither turn them out on the street as soon as they can walk to live or die, a" fate may have it, or die and leave them to bhift for themselves. Who they arc and from whence they came, they do not kuow them selves. That they are, is a terrible fact. Some years ago Corlear's Hook was the ! rei,,li.7.voii8 of the depraved aud desperate of th2 East Side. Caugs of half grown j boys, la.vless ami desperate made that lo- ..iit,. tiw.ir .....it.,, niul il. w.-is an nmcli as v . ..v, - the life of a man was worth to venture ; , Th(. llut.,.M bov3 ar,d iri8 there j graduated from boot-blacking anil newspa- per sellinz to pocket-picking, burglary aud ! , . .1 :. . : murder, as increasing yeais gave ineiu iu- creased strength. If one died in a street j brawl, or was oflercd up a sacnuce to the j law, a score of recruits stood ready to lake his place from the numerous ranks of the homeless. These children sleep in store boxes, in nsh-bsrrels, in hay-loft any place that can n llonl a protection lrom tnc wind and rain. I or food, the garbage barrels cive them something the light chances of chance jobs another part, and theft the remainder. The Children' Aid Sneiety, an institu tion which is praciieitl in its designs and methods of work. 'u u i -mined to purify the "Hook," and to that er.d established a lodging house f'"r lnys. A large building was leased for the purpose in Uivington street, near the Fast 1 fiver, and placed un der the superintendence of a man who put liis heart into the work, and was not afraid to go out at night in search of these homc less youths, sometimes bringing home as j many as half a dozen to a good supper and a comfortable bed. A boy who has no money is given food and lodging free if they have money, five cents is charged each lor meals ana ucus. A night school, where these Arabs are taught to read and write, is in full opera tion. A bath room is free to all, as well as a library and reading room, in which all the daily and weekly papers arc filed. The effect upon the boys has been won derful. The Superintendent, backed by in fluential citizens who gave a good share of their time to the work, not only feeds and clothes the bays, but he instructs them how to set an honest living, and aids them to get in the way of it. Sine? the House was opened it has fed and sheltered no less than f,."J0 different boys : furnished 204,2a' meals ; provided j homes in th: West for 420 boys ; found em- j ploy tnc nt for several hundred others in the city, and restored 10') truant boys to their I friends.

The merchants I of the city have finally discovered that the ' loss r,f tr:idr is not ehar?eable altogether ! to "hard times," but that the cause is I deeper. An act passed in 1S7''., made ports of entry of Chicago, Cincinnati, To ledo and various other cities in the west, alul provided that goods might Ix; imported i .lireet in bond, annraised the t.oiut of final --1 i " ' ft . destination, aud I there.

B cities, has brought mourning to the extor tioners in jtnd about the Custom House, and has seriously injured the importing i business here, hut it has saved the West j hundreds of thousands of dollars. Thcre i no reason why the cities of the West should not have all the facilities for import- ing that the Atlantic cities possess, nor can fliurc nnjr -jijod reason iriven for idvinil three or four cities a monopoly. Look out, I Gentlemen of the West, for the New York importers in Congress this wiuter. roi.HTCs In the. city is mixed. The Democracy are tightim; over the spoils ; and the Republi cans are lying back waiting for events. The Democracy have never yet profited by a victory, for the. fact is their political ven tures are all for spoils. They win a victory aud immediately spoil the effects of it.by not knowing how to improve it. or rather not caring. They will plunder the city aud State right aud left for a year, and then the people will rise aud oust them. Th-: Re publicans have a sure tiling on the State, I in the long run, so long as the Democracy ar controlled by the men who now hoJJ the power in that organization, to suc ceed they have to promise plunder, and those to whom they promise are very sure that the promises are fullliil rd. Then the people when they get tired of Is.ing plun dered they dethrone the thi-ves, who stay out till tlie people get careless agaiu. You may look for a reaction next fall. I prophesy it. HOW Till: Til I SO I DON K. I attended a l'iiii.-r.l yesterday. It was the List office I could perform for a young man who was, in his life, a friend of mine, aud as a friend I followed him to his grave Crconwood. He had only reached ix ! good management accumulated wealth i meat wealth. He died a doen vears ago worth a million or more, leaving one son, my friend, and three daughters. The young man received a collegiate education, and, graduating, came back to New York to live. Life was to him as rose-tinted as posaibY. Oceans of money, excellent so ciety, a splendid home, everything in short that a man could have to enjoy life and be happy. He joined clubs, of course, he insti tuted a stable, of course. He proposed to ; live.and he did live. He made the acquaiu- i tauce of all the men who live, and he found i j plenty of them willing to help hini. He hail no business to do, tor why should a young man with a n.iilioii do business or bother about it V His father had made the I money lor mm 10 enjoy, aim ne inieuueu .... . ... i i. . to i-iijoy it. His lifo was :i routine very easy to describe. The morning at liis clubs drink. The afternoon in all sorts of places- drink. Tlie early evenings in the theatres drink. The latter part of the uiijht in jMinblinn hells and places of just as bad a nature driuk. Drink in the morn in to tone him up for dissipation later in the day. Jrink to drown remorse drink, drink, drink. Aud at twciily-cight the poor follow, bom with splendid possibilities and with capacities for all sorts of good, sank into a drunkard'a grave, with no good deed left behind him to signalize his life or to mark the fact that he had lived. lie died of liting left a fortune, instead of hav ing been compelled to make one. This is a brief history, but there are one hundred thousand young men in this city 1 re: atiuii it at this moment. Are there . ... ....... ; s i not similar cases in your locality t i tiik sunda y (question : assumes more importance every day. The ; (iemans and I reuch back up the "saercd ! l,... 1 t toiiccii. lui-uura, .mu jiuii-iiuins eu- erally support those endeavoriug to crush them out. Aud the light is waxing warm. The llowery Theater was open lastSuuday night with their ghastly melo dramas, as j usual, and the old place was jammed with people, of th class who do go to the theatre week-day nights half grown boys and girls. It was a wild night they made of it. It seemed as though the fact that their amusement was illegal and likely to he interrupted, gave an additional zest to it, for never in the history of the place were peanuts so liberally masticated or applause so freely and boisterously given. It was a pandemonium from the rising of the enrtaiu to the going down of the same. The beer-gardens and "Concert Saloons"' were in full blast, the police not having j been instructed to make raids upon them. I it is singular that the wort: am not com mence with them, for if the theatres are, as Talmadge styles them, "the vestibules of hell," these places are in the exact centre. They are the resort of the lowest, vilest men and women that the Almighty for some, to us unknown, purpose permits to exist, and the orgies nightly held in them would put a debased Fiji Islander to blush. F.ut somehow the police pass them by without any effort to break thf.ii up. BUSINESS is improving steadily in many of its branches The strikes are all over, and ; though laborers nre on short time and re duced pay, they are squeezing through bet ter than was anticipated. The coming of the holidays has put a great deal of money in active circulation, and there is a brisk ness, which, if it be spasmodic, is pleasant. The weather is pleasant and bracing, and the health of the city vastly improved. May tin ood we have he increased. PlKTI.O. !.-' THE BEST PAPER. TRY IT. POSTAGE FREE ! UKAl'TI FULLY ILLUSTRATED.
