NEW YORK March, 14th, 1874.
:mTENEKENT uousxs.
make. up'this great Babel I'Ne" in what. are
called tenement h0hses.‘ You, oh dweller
in the village or-thecountry, have an idea
that a house is a structure of seven; .10)
twelve rooms’,'iu the centre of a pretty piece
of ground, with flowers, fruits and such
things about it,‘whe're a child may be born
and‘g‘row up with decent, healthful sur-
ple in this city know as'a house. To them
a house means a vast building, four or five
stories high, divided into small rooms, the
rooms ten feet square, the bed rooms closets.
Often . twenty, thirty, and, fOrty
and instances have'been known where as
many as 150 apartments have been crowded
together under one roof, each of them in-
habited by a family of from three to five
persons. Huddled together in these cdm-
out ever having known the true significance
Of the word, "home.” .
~~;.'l‘he.extent to which the overcrowding
New York, exceeds that of any other
Christian city in the world. A comparative.
. ,rngqis To T111: comma: ACRE,
among our poor people, shows that in the
and in the Seventeenth Ward, 280—thése
being the four most densely thronged dis-
tricts in New York. London has but one
district that approaches this exhibit. The
population of the Strand numbers 307
to the square, acre, and the next most
crowed area is East London, with 266.
AND WHAT Is MORE.
Very frequently there is no. pretence 0f
separating families by thin'partition walls.
of a‘ w ‘OIéi‘OOm, and, so two or more fami-
lies ate, fiddled into a single room, the par-
tition hung-".1 mark on the' flour. And in
these places" :children .are born-families
sleep together, male and female. 15' it any
Wonderlthat thej ails and prisons are crowd-
order an army ofpolicemen is required?
' ' TEE ornsn‘nxfrnmrn. .
. And. while 500,000 people ui'us herd to-
markets, and thankful if they get even that,
it is a sharp commentary on our boasted
civilization to read in a “society” paper
that)‘Mrs.,_Wm. B. Astor, at a recent ball,
11’1de laces to the amount .of one hun-
,
woman is worth not less than $60,000,000,
11 large share of his property being in these
very tenement houses I have been describé
ing. He has never .given a dollar in charity
-—he never repairs 0. house, or ever heeds a
call for air, light or cleanliness from the
miserablewi'etches whoinhabit them. The
only interest he ever takes in ‘these people
is to ‘see‘ th'a‘t 'they pay their rent every
month in advance‘,'and to‘se‘e exactly how?
much money in' ‘thc shape of rent can be
screwed 9000f them. T'Hisfather the origi-
nalAstor, John J acobpwas- not quite so bad
as his son. The old: man died worth $30,-
000,000. In his last illness he woke one
morning andlasked of his secretary :
“Mn—has Mrs. Wilson paid her month’s
rent ?”
“I believe not,” said the Secretary.
.“It is. $12. You will see to it at. (I108.
She is sick, and if you put it Off she may not
pay it.”
Twice or three times a day would this
wretched Oldfimaniisk if that $12: had been
paid, udtil 10111111431 hin1,'the" secretary took
312 {loudspeaker and gave it to him, say-
ing marsh." 131m it.
'- ”That’s right—that’s right,” chuckled the
old miser, as his fingers closed on the
money;_“and now, Mr.—, turn her out.
She is some woii’t'be able to pay. Get
the thrég’days’ she dives, ifyou can ; if not,
we had—iiiet'ter lose it thawtolet it grow.”
Like sire, like son. Wm._B. is even more
greedy and grasping than his father.
I should hate to take his money with his
disposition.- ~It‘the- Astors meet their ten-
ants in the next world there will be a lively
time. But there is another Side to New
York life. There are -
GENEROUS MEN.
For instance, young James Gordon
Bennett gave, $80,000 to be used up in soup
this winter. Of course, those who don’t
like Bennett say that he does it as an adver-
tisement, but the hungry wretches who are
saved from starvation by his gift won’t care
astraw what he does it for. They will
pray, as I do. that more men would try this
“advertising dodge." Then the Howard
Committee fitted up the basement of a
building in Howard street, where everybody
caugbe fed without money and without
pritie. They serve a substantial supper of
goodlsOup; bread and coffee. This costs, at
the wholesale prices, three and one-half
cents for each man. Breakfast is about the
same, varied occasionally with beef, fish,
pork and beans, or something of the kind.
Last month, 9,168 were fed at this place.
The applicants are a superior set of men.
They are mostly mechanics. Of 30 names
recorded, the United States was represented
by 11; Ireland by 7; Germany by 7; Eng-
l'and by 4; Scotland and France by 1 each.
Three were clerks, three machinists, and-
threc laborers. The others were engineers,
bgok agents, firemen on steamers, carpen-
ters‘, 810., do. .
' ' -- ~Ennrtv’mn INTEHPERANCE.
lutemperance is by no means confined to
the men of New York. Indeed the vice is
wide spread, and is, not limited by sex.
The wives and-daughters of the “best fami-
lies" are addicted'to the maddening bowl,
and are as much the slaves of appetite as
their fathers and brothers. They get it first
by the use of wine in the social circle—then
he exhaustion resulting from late hours,
and excitement calls for stimulants 'as a
sustainer. And once fastened there is an
end. Such habits grow on women faster
than on men, and are more certain to stay.
Thousands of fashionable women—leaders
in societyuhavc in their rooms the brandy-
bottle, every day requiring were and more
0 satisfy’th‘e cravings” Of an alchoholized
system. Does it not show? Not at first,
or indeedfox-alongtime. The art of the
nameler hides those ugly red blotches.
But'finally it gets 'beyond the enameler‘s
artetlic lady in a debauch makes an exhi-
bition of herself—thetsecret is out, and with
no restraint she devotes herself entirely to
it and goes down to the pit. It is time that
a reform was inaugurated in the homes of
the wealthy... There is but little use Of
talking reform or temperance so long as
wine is set before every guest by the lady
of the house, and stronger drinks by the
head thereof.
. THE‘L'AS‘I‘ svvranE
which the authorities are after, is the clum-
siest yet unearthed,butf‘a'sclumsy as it is
thousands upon thousands have bitten at it
and been bitten by it. “The Geneva Watch
00.,” with“ _J. Wright & Co., 609 Broad-
way" as agents, have flooded the country
with advertisementspfi‘ering to send superb
gold watches for—think, of it—$4I 'The
metal Of which.its.-watches are said to be
made is “almonia goldflff'wbich l-fr‘Om its
”—3 [blitfe’fl mus gentle oracle.“
> _Pl“|‘l .._
Th? circu-
lar states that this wondertul composition
was “invented by Thomas T. .Efendolph,
one of the largest stockholders in the.
Geneva Watch Co.” ' L .. x
Mr. Efendolph, who is a wonderful al-
‘ chemist, worked for years'endeavoring to
make a discovery that" would take the place-
of gold, and stand the tests of acids, and al-
‘ways retain its brilliancy, and wear the
same as virgin gold itself. In May, 1871,
his years of laborious toil were rewarded by
the discovery of this material, which even
expert jewellers cannot detect. Of course
watches so cheapand sogood were in de-
mand, 'and I. Wright 65 Co. received a.
shower of letters containing $4 each, which
was pocketed.
. There is one way to stop this swindling.
:The laws which, govern‘ the’ administratibn
of the Post-ofiice prohibit the delivery of
letters to fictitious addresses where fraud is
intended. If the first victim would, with a
contrite heart, inform the Postmaster of
New York, all the rest would be saved, for
every letter would bereturned to the sender.
As high as 10,000 letters to swindlers are re.-
ceived at this office every month, none of
them containing less than $1.00.
THE POLITICAL POT
is boiling. Even at this early day the De-
getting ready for the next election. This
“getting ready” means: the distribution of
the spoils. the killing of the lame ducks and
arranging the labor of the sound ones. For
these ineu. The leaders of Tammany pay
down. for their labor. If a man has in-
fluence he can get of them just what'that
influence is worth—if he uses it without
getting his pay, it is his fault. NO matter
what he has done in the past—no matter
how useful he was last year—unless he has
year-,‘he is killed and carted out. I know
one striker who has afforded me ' consider-
able instruction as well as amusement.
Last year he held a clerkship in the Courtll
House, a siheeure in the City Hall, and
something or other in another department,
giving him an income of about $7,000 per
annum. This spring he was ousted from
all these. “Why?” I asked. “Well, you
see,” he answered, “I had fifty of the ’boys
that made their headquarters at a saloon
which my brother-in—law run.- Well, this
Spring,.lim, that's my brother-in-law,’ knock-
ed one ofthe boys on the head with a bottle,
and was arrested, and the place was broken
up, and he escaped Sing-Sing by the skin of
his teeth, and had to go West. Another
and of course] was permitted to git. He
holds all these places. But I ain't going to
lay still, no sir. I’ve got a man to go in
with me, and I’m going to start right acroSs
the street, and I’ll have ’em all back, and
then they can‘t help themselves. I’ll have
my places this fall, sure."
No one seems to think Of making head
against Tammany—everybody seeks to cori-
-ciliate it. My friend will get his place.
The moment he’gets control of fifty votes,
he is certain Of it, for that fifty, by skillful
repeating, means two hundred and fifty on _
election day. , I.
This is a Republican form Of government,
I believe.
THE WEATHER
is as mild as new milk, and the streets—1
well they are indescribably slushy and
nasty. Maythe summer put in an appear-
ance immediately. PIETsto.
STRATFORD.
Stratford, isa quiet, retired town; its p'eoe
plc'active and progressive. Look abroad
upon the town and‘ryou behold it full of
natural and artificial beauty. Look upon:
the people and you behold in them beauty
of body and mind. Possessing, as such old?
towns always do, such mines of wealth,yet,
like man, unsatisfied, we find it endeavor-
ing to beautify itself with other than earth-
ly beauty,—we find it-seeking, striving to
adorn, with heavenly graces, the character
of its people. Out from the noise and tur-
ceives early news of all that is passing on
throughout the world, and does not fail to
bring in to itself and cleave unto the good.
We read and listen to news of a great tem-
perance and religious ‘i'evival going on
around us, we turn and look into this quiet
place and we find its temperance men at
work, and earnestly, too, for they have
their Division of Sons of Temperance, and
that i's‘not only holding its regular weekly
meeting, but a weekly prayer meeting, and
is about to have acourse of public meetings.
These endeavors of those unselfish men and
womeurwho forget themselves in the good
they are doing for the poor drunkard and
his family, are being crowned with success.
Are they not doing a work fér the rumseller,
also, as they are saving these souls which
might-otherwise appear on the debtor side
of His account at the last day. We think
they are. Its churches, have they felt this
wave‘which is sweeping‘over our land.
Yes, they have their revival and have added
imanyfsouls unto themselves. And they
have worked with their temperance al-
liances, for we find many of the converts
becoming members of the Star of Hope
Division, S. of T. .
Yes, this is a quiet town, and yet it is doing
a work worthy of repetition’iu every town
and city throughout the state—throughout
the country, and even to the ends of the
world. L.

The Grand Central 11010]..ch York
A recent New YOrk letter says of the
Grand Central Hotel:
Although the Grand Central has been,
daily, ascene of busy activity since.it was
first opened, Mr. Powers has found time this
Winter, with the aid ofa some of skilled ar-
tists in each department, to'make bis splen-
did hotel look fresher and-‘more beautiful
than ever. Most-noticeable, perhaps, among
the recentimprovements are the new and
tasteful designs in fresco-workwhich adorn
the halls, parlors, grand dinying'room, and
exchanges. In keeping with this, solid and
polished walnut and white and varlgnted
marble predominate below, while rich~ pat-
terns of Royal Wilton Axminster carpets
.covcrthc floor in every direction above.
The Grand (.‘entral is also growing famous
for its table. Another deserving feature,
new in great favor, is the plan of rates
adopted by the Grand Central, which al-
lows thc guest to chOOsc theprice amllocution

THE “ BARTRAM.”
The Bartram Sewlng Machine is the latest produe
tion of Inventive genius. It has the
O I O
Semp lsoety
of the Wilcox &. Glbbs’, but makes the lock-stitch
with a revolving shuttle, which, revolving on its
carrier, is subject to no wear, and requires no oiling
by which the thread would otherwise be soiled; and
the wear and friction of a “race" is avoided. This
style of shuttlemoves with greater
0 I .
Rapsdety
and ease of operation making one-thirdmorestitchcs
with the same motion of the foot, than any other
machine.
Ease.
It is the easiest running of the family of Sewing
Machines. Delicate ladies who cannot use others
can operate the Bartram withoutfatigue. .
Best Needle.
It has the best Zneedle in the world—short and
straight with a flat shank. By simply putting it up
in the needle bar as far as it will go. it. is set right
and never has to be varied for thick or thin goods.
Durability.
It is, without question, the most durable machine
In the market, as it is soslmply constructed (having
but five workina parts), that friction 1s reduced to
the lowest ossdble degree. All the wearing. parts
are made 0 the finest steel, and beautifully finished.
