murmurs.

The rum clycoae has Struck New York
at last. In Brooklyn it came with all the
force ofa hurricane, and it is rivalliag the-
Western movement so far as power is con-
cerned. The drinking places in New York,
by which saloons and groceries, in which
liquor is the principle article dealt in, is
meant, number 7,514; one to every 133 of
the population. This is exclusive of drug-
gists, club houses and places of that class
whichdispense liquors quite as freely as the
professed dealers.

These furnish facilities enough for drink-
ing in all'eonscience. Wall street is full of
drinking places, many of them furnished
without reference to' cost, for gambling in
stocks and gold is a business so exciting as
to require stimulants constantly to enable
the gambler to sustain the drain upon him.
The Astor House bar does .an enormous
bu's'iiielis. From early morn till 12 at night
the long bar is crowded with feverish-look-
ing individuals, who keep the cool and
self-possessed dispensers busy. One thou-
sand dollars a day for liquors alone is not a
big day’s work "at the Astor. Delmonico’s
Broadway place is another famous place,
then the Brandreth House, St. Nicholas,
Grand Central, New York Hdtel, and so on
up, all on the wesi side. The east side has
quite as many. The regular thing for the
regular drinker who is in business down
town, is to walk to his home. up above 20th
street, and he is very apt to stop at every

" one of these placesand drink.

g J cat at thistime a ’series of meetings are
being heald in all the churches and most of
the halls, the object being to create a senti-
ment against-the trafilc, and use of liquor,
and to so unite the people opposed to it so
that a raid will have some effect, The
clergy are all in it, and many of the leading
business men have come out and auounced
their willingness to' give the movement all

the aid in their power.
DIO LEWIS

is here with his Western laurels fresh upon
him, and the ranks are closing for a big
movement. In

_ 13300an »- '
the women have fakea the field with some
prospect! of success. One shrewd saloon
man took advantage of the excitement to
post bills all over thec'ity, in the name of
the Women’s Committee, stating that a
prayer meeting would be held at’his saloon
agiven evening. Of course his saloon was
crowded from early in the evening till after
00’clock. Then, as no women came, it
crept through the wool of the thirsty crowd
present,that the saloon man had made a
rather nice thing by attracting them to his
den. The unscrupulous fellow , made
several ‘hundred dollars by his~ 'shrewd
dodge.

-- ”A, THE WOMEN ,. .

praying bands and visité'd’varioiis saloons,
in which they held, services. These agen-
ciescan be used in Brooklyn as well as in
the“,West, for Bwlyn.“ a city of residen-
ces, and a very religious city. But they
metflwith' but little success. The saloon

I I A NEW nonsn Drsnssn.

A'h'ew disease has broken out among the
horses in the city, which, if not checked,
will create as much trouble as the epizootic
of two years ago. It is a complaint entirely
‘dlfi‘erent from any that has yet appeared.
Some horse doctors declare that the disease
is of amild type, 111”!!ng course, in a may]
fewmkills, that the bdr‘séi’does
not filler at all; that it merely feels dull,
lzffiguid, under the weather, rather sleepy,‘
rather dispirited, likeyad: ward politician
Other doctors insist
. intensely with ‘ an,
aching pain a tetnating..with colic spasms,
and that it has proved in many instances
fatal. One horse doctor__ insists that the
di‘ssgie'm Iu'h'g fever. Another is
certain that it is a case of catarrhal fever.
This latter opinion is rapidly gaining

 

ground, and finds many advocates among, .

the owners of the horses affected, who are:

having their animals-treated for this cem-
plaint.
In all the large stables Lhe, disease, what-

ever it is, has run through all the horses.
In the stables 517 Washington street, a
personal case has occurred. A horse was
attgcked twice bythedisorder within two
weeks. The first tl'n'te'he was sick six days
The second time the attack lasted half that

naimalbecame thin, but in this instance
the horse was, after the second attack, even
fieshier than it first. His jointsfhowever
became stifl‘; he was unable to move, as if
he hadrheumatism. He did not seem to
sutfcrnny,.but was as inanimate as a log.

pists of the city enraged at James Gordon
Bennett, because he preferrcd‘to disburse
his money himself, instead Of putting it in
their hands, attacked him roughly, and
Bennett in turn, has subjected them to a
microscopic examination. Quite a number
of interesting facts have been developed.
For‘instance, there are seventy charities in
the city governed and managed by “boards,”
“agents,” the. These charities disburse $1,-
700,000, and the cost of carrying them on
fools up $185,000! New here is where
Bennett gets them. 'Of the seventy, eight
are Catholic,‘ and the eight disburse over
half of the entire amount, at a cost of $23,-
000! To make the comparison more sharp
and distinct he gives this instance:-The.
House of Refuge, a protestant charity, col-
lected and disbursed $61,000, at a cost of
$38,238. while a Catholic Protectory, the
same. kind of a charity,. expended $365,000
, And Bennett perti-
nently asks—\Vhere does the money go to?
Whatdo the demure individuals in black
gloves who collect it. do with it? And no
one, as yet, has answered his question.
The fact is there is a small army of profes-
sional philanthropists who live, move, and
have their being by the collection and dis-
bursing of money for charities. Of every
dollar contributed so many cents stick to
their fingers in some way. Mr. Bennett is
doing the charitable a good’ work by his
timely exposure.
THE CHINESE ZN NEW YORK.

Saving the cities on the Pacific (bust,
New York has more Chinese, residents,
than any city in what may be culletfi the
civilized world. They are huddled together
in the most squalid part of the city, and
though they live wretchedly, they manage
to save something every day,'aud many of
them are absolutely accumulating property.
The emigrants are, to a large extent, men,
but they all marry after they have been
here a time. It is a singular fact that
Chinese men find their wives among the
Irish. The Irish women of the lower
grades have no objection to marrying the
pig-tails Oriental, and they all testify to
the fact but they maka good, kind has
bands. The progeny of these Mongol-Cello
marriages are larger than the Chinese,
quite as nimble, lithe and active, and very
much stronger. But it is a curious mix,
isn’t it. “

FASHION.

Easter cemmemorates the resurrection of
the meek and lowly Jesus. How do his fol-
lowers in Gotham preparefor it? Read,
and get an idea of New Yprk religion.

“Madame———'s opening of Easter hall
has called out thebezzumonda. The elegant-
drawing room was crowded. Among the
nobby hats our attention - was called 'to
pretty ecru chip, embellished with French
flowers and pure ostrich tips, also,exquisite-
ly cut garniture'.A lovely chapeau com-
posed of mas de Isuez, in a soft, gray tint,
reminds one of Quaker simplicity, and yet
there is no lack of grace about this natty
Easter hat. Among the recherche Easter
black silk and camel’s hair cloth appear to
take the lead in promenade Spring suils‘.
Ovei‘skirls are not so extensively worn as
formerly. The neat little postilion jacket is
quite a favorite with the ban tons.” .

Isn’t-thisa descent frotn the sublime to
the riftulous? A “natty Easter Hat l" in-
deed. But speaking of ‘

IIATS AND 'rmxos, , s
it costs something to be a fashionable
woman in New York. The simplest bon-
net, without flowers or feathers, costs $20,
and oaeas cheap as any woman of preten-
sion would wear costs $50. Then a Spanish
Mantilla to suit that bonnet costs $350, the
roses on it being $4 each extra 1 And these
tv'vo articles, bear in mind, only commence
the dress. Some of your lady readers are
doubtless able to take the cost of these two
items, and-from the figures see what the
entire outfit from but to shoes would cost.
[can’t do it. But this I know: If I ever
marry a woman of position in New York I
shall examine the resources ofhcr pupa be-
fore the ceremony is pronounced. I shall
insist that the old gentleman settles on her
at least $20,000 per auuntn. This sum will
take an ordinarybelic through, unless she
is very ugly, in which case more. will be rc~
quired. But think ofa young merchant
saddling himself with so expensive 21. luxury
as a fashionable wil‘cl What certain ruin
it is for him, if he happens to be in ‘lovc
with her! Is it. any \vohder that so many
young men live at the clubs, and keep
rooms of their own, rather than marry? I
think not. Prnrno.

An old maid down here has manufactured
one hundred and fifteen worsted cats this
spring.

It is said that some young ladies down
here, have a fashion of tying up their taper
fingers when young gentlemen are expected
to call, and when the latter very naturally
ask the cause, they very blushingly reply,
“I burned them broiling steak this morn-
ing." The result is that several young
gentlemen have burnethcir fingers by be-
lieving this storv.

THE “ BARTRAM.”

1'The Bartram Scwi as: Machineis the latest prodac
:ion of inventive genius. It has the

Q .' e o I
Semplecety
of the Wilcox A: Gibbs’, but makes thelock-stiteh
with a revolving: shuttle. which, revolving on .IIS
carrier, is subject to no wear. and requires no oiltntz
by which the thread would otherwxse be suited; and

the wear and friction of a “race” is avoided. This
styleaf shuttle moves with greater

Rapidit/y

and ease of operation makingone-thirdmarestilches
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 without fatigue.

Best Needle.

A It has the best needle 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.

I O
chrabelzt’y .
It is, without question, the most durable machine
in the market, as it is so simply constructed (having
but five working parts), that friction is reduced to

the lowest possible degree. All the wearing. parts
are made of the finest steel. and beautifully finished.

0
General Efi‘lceency.
Theinventor, (Mr. W. B. Bartram,\has kept one
important. feature in view, viz., that it should be so
constructed as not to limit its usefulness to any
specialty of wars, but to be adapted to both light
and heavy sewing equally well.

W 3 Invite

the public to call at the agenc and examine this
new and wonderful Machlae, an allow the agent to
prove all and more than we have said of the merits
of the ” BABTRAM."

DIPSOMANIA'.

Some valuable and interesting informa-
ion on the subject of dipsomania or drunk-
-ancss as a disease is given in the first an-
.unl report of the New York State Inebri-
:te Asylum, which has just been published.

It seems to be established that iaebriely,
the other disorders of the human system,
:an be corrected and cured by proper treat~
heat; thtft the lost self-control can be re-
‘ored, and thetnnfortuuate victims ofa
erriblc vice returned to lives of usefulness
nd respectability. Many eminent men, in-
lutting DR. R1133, have from time to
ime,.during the last half century, given
.estimony in favor of medical treatment in
he management of drunkenness. When
she public come to understand that the med-
cal profession regard drunkenness or ine-
triety as a disease, literally a crazy thirst
ziherited, or begotten of excess’iverindulg-
nee, and that intoxication is theimmediate

r remote cause of this disease, the subject
.vill not be tregted in the fiippant or noisy
:enunciatory style that is to- frequently in~
~ulged in by the press—and pulpit cf the
lay. . _

The physician of the New York State
nebriate Asylum classifies the different
arms of drinking as accidental or social,
mbitual and perodical. An accidental or
ccasional drinker is a sound man, and has
no power of restraining himself; but the
abitual drunkard is an unsound man men-

tlly, physically, and morally. He islost to

elf-control. The appetite grows by what

t feeds upon, and as a rule, habitual drink-

rs as they increase the am t of stimula-

:on, take correspondingly less food. Not a
‘ew patients have been reported as having
' aken from forty to fifty glasses a day for as

”any days, with scarcely any food,_ until
poisoned and exhausted, the culminating
mint is reached, and utter prostration, with
W without convulsions or mania, or it may
~e|fiath, follows. If théy recover, such
re s soon relapse again, and gradually

lie-whole being, moral and physical, is

thanged. Slowly, insiduously, but surely,
be brain and nervous centres have been
loisoned. The tissues are inflamed, and
tardening or softening may follow; then

:omes confusion of thought, blunted per.
’ccptions, and conscious or unconscious mor-

ll obliquity. Such persons seldom see them-

selves as others see them. They will, with

pparent earnestness, dpny the fact of their
rinking; In fact, as they go for days with-

Ptmch -

' -e deceived. They say and do all sorts of
. absurd things, f0? which in restored coa-
ciousness of perfect sobriety they are deep-
y pcnitent.

A majority of the persons who drink ex-

--essively have estimable qualities. They
re ordinarily of generous impulses, and
t-.ith'not a little manly pride and delicate
easibility. Letters from friends furnishing
, .te physician with brief biographies of pa-
tents usually refer to the “ onlyone fault."
‘hat one fault is a vice; but at the same
fore a disease from which the victim is as
erlcss, unaided,'to rid himself a,fl 'l‘”

fa bath, finds himself in the current t~
:ndertow and unable to regain the st ‘
.a both cases the need of assistance is

of. Humanity demands that we pron

When sufferers from dipsomania l
cached the piteous condition. desct

:usable neglect by their friends. Thn-
:n'oranee and predjudice they have been
