The Navy on Guard. The action of the Navy Department in ordering several small steam vessels to patrol the Sound will add to the pop- ular feeling of security. What the navy undertakes to do is generally performed thoroughly and efiiciently, and it may be taken for granted that no infected ships from any quarter will be alloWed to pass Hell Gate. g Mr. Morgan’s Generous Act. With commendable and characteristic generosity Mr. J. Pierpont Morgan has chartered the Sound steamboat, Ston- ington, and placed it at the disposal of the Quarantine authorities for the use _ of the cabin passengers of steamships detained at Quarantine. The Stoningé ton is well fitted for the use for which it has been offered and accepted, and every humane person will be gratified to see the remaining passengers of the Normannia, most of them our fellow citizens, removed from quarters made wretched by the imminent peril of con- tracting the deadly disease brought by the Normannia from Hamburg. It was the duty, either of the steamship com- pany responsible for bringing the plague ships or of the health authori- ties, to do what Mr. Morgan has done; but this does not detract one iota from the generosity of his course in a most painful emergency. Shut Them Out. London has done wisely to shut out pauper immigrants from infected coun- tries. And the discretion which has been given to the health authorities will have the effect to close the gates against all undesirable foreigners. That is the object sought to be attain- ed, and the result is that all immigra- tion is practically stopped. The United States should have adopt-' ed like measures many months ago. It has been the supremest fo11y to accept the pauperism, pestilence and crime which European countries have been kindly dumping down upon us. §e have had restrictive laws, to be sur ; but they have been openly violated and ignored. Thousands upon thousands of foreigners have reached this coun- try during the past few years who had been helped out of their native country for their country’s good. And yet America has welcomed'them, apparent- ,ly with open arms. Even now, with cargoes of cholera in New York bay, almost every infected port of Europe is contributing additional shiploads. If indiscriminate and undesira ble im- migration were stopped, not only for twenty days, but for twenty years, this Republic would be all the better for it. Our population would grow less rapid- ly, but it would grow in purity, in health, in strength and in patriotism. This country has for some time been receiving the scum of Europe. It will be money, health and happiness to our people if it is property discriminated for an extended period. - ‘ Rates to the Great Review. The national encampment of the Grand Army of the Republic will be held at Washington, September 19th to ' 24th, 1892. The occasion will undoubt- edly attract the largest number of vet- . erans ever assembled on a similar occao sion, and the review will be the most imposing demonstration ever witnessed in this country since the historic review of the army in 1865. It will be the event of a lifetime, as never again will there be so large a gathering of old soldiers in any city of the land. In or- der that everyone may witness the grand spectacle the railroads will sell tickets from September 13 to 20, valid to return until October 10, 1892, at a single fare for the round trip. Yester‘ day Quartermaster James H. Hoyt of Buckingham Post made arrangements with Quartermaster Disbrow of Elias Howe Post, Bridgeport, for 50 tickets from Norwalk to Washington and re- turn, ‘which he will place on sale next Monday afternoon at the low price of‘ 36.50 each. These tickets are good only for the special train chartered by Elias Howe Post, and will leave South Nor- walk at 8 a. m., Monday, September 19. When Quartermaster Hoyt leaves for Washington _ Wednesday morning he will place the tickets in charge of Adju- ' tant Bradley S. Keith, of whom they can be obtained up to Saturday even- ing, September 17. Tickets will be sold from the South ‘ Norwalk depot at $7.73, but by secur- ' ing them of Mr. Hoyt or Mr. Keith for ‘the special train $1.23 can be saved.

A German Expert’s Ideas on Restricting the Scourge. ._———— RIGHT FOOD AND CLEANLINESS ARE URGED. _———— National and New York Authorities to Act. BERLIN, Sept. 9.—Prof. Virchow, who has- returned from a visit to Russia, speaks in terms of praise of the Russian officials, who in some respects, he says, are in advance of those of Germany. He excepts from these expressions of ap- proval the officials of the Volga region, whom Prof. Virchow evidently considers not as trustworthy as those whom he has met in other parts of the empire. He says that Russian statistics can be relied upon, although their value would always be relative. West Russia Prof. Virchow reports to be free from the cholera plague, and although the cholera is pres- ent in Moscow, yet the fact that 6)0 beds are empty in the hospitals bears evxdence both that it is not raginz to such an \X' tent as to tax the resources of that city. In regard to the probable duration of the cholera epidemic, Prof. Virchow says the belief that .the arrival of winter will stop the cholera is erroneous, as there have been epidemics of the decal: in winter. In regard to the symptoms and nature of cholera, Prof. Vircnow gives his opin- ion that even when there are symptoms of Asiatic cholera the fact that the coma bacillus prior to the disease is not found, proves that it is not Asiatic chol- era. As to the remedies, Prof. Virchow says that praying with dilutedcarbolic acid is useless, in his opinion. He ad- vises general cleanliness and attention to digestion as the best individual pre- cautions. ' As a general preventive Prof. Virchow considers that a perfect quarantine would be effective, and that travelers should be carefully examined. He considers saloon - passengers equally dangerous with steer- age passengers if they have been on the infected ship. - Although Prof. Virchow considers that spraying with carbolic acid is not of value, he regards carbolic acid and sub- limate as the best disinfectants, and he advises the washing of hands after touch of a cholera patient. While the excreta or vomit from such a patient, in the pro- fessor’s opinion, are the means of com- municating the infection, yet that com- munication can be made in numerous different and hardly suspected forms, ‘ through bank notes, the post, linen that. has been soiled, the boots or shoes, the hands and the mouth. The general tone of Prof. Vlrcliow’s statement is encouraging, and he left no doubt that in his opinion the Worst was known in regard to Russia. -—Prof. Houseworth wlll be at the store of H. S.

Besides in the morning biting the dogs mentioned in these columns, it in the afternoon visited Elmenworth and bit a great Dane dog, and two other valuable ‘ dogs, belonging to rs. Mathews, and when Mrs.. Glass at the lodge went out the animal sprang at her. but she managed to get out of his way before receiving injury. The dog came up the avenue and it is said at- tacked a number of dogs muzzled and unmuzzled on the way. Coming .into Wall street it bit a dog belonging to A. H. Hoyt, also the Collie dog of a West avenue physician, whose'name we are requested not to publish and a small black and tan dog. It then ran down Wall street to its home and into the cellpr. Chief DeForest hearing of the affair soon after, visited Mrs. Welch’s where he found the animal muzzled and tied up. There are those who think the dog ought to be killed and a ver careful Watch kept over the dogs he as bitten.

NORWALK, CONN, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 9, 189‘). The Hanlon Case. When the case of Daniel Hanlon of Norwalk was called in the Criminal Court of Common Pleas at Bridgeport yesterday, the principal witness was missing. Hanlon was char ed with selling liquor to Benjamin impson. J r., a minor. The court adjourned till 2.30 that Timpson might be arrested on a capias. When the court opened again he was brought in by Court Messenger Evans and the trial proceeded. All the evidence and arguments are in but the jury had not reached a verdict when the court adjourned.

Our Public Schools Are the main-stay of our republic. In them are being cultivated the minds which are to be our future law-makers and leaders in every walk in life. How essential it is that ,these minds should be united to strong, healthy bodies. So many children suffer from impurities ‘and poisons in lthe blood that it is a wonder that they ever grow up to be men and women. Many parents can- not find words strong enough to ex- press their gratitude to Hood’s Sarsa- parilla for its good effect upon their children. Scrofula, salt rheum and other diseases of the blood are effectu- ally and permanently cured by this ex- cellent medicine, and the whole being is given strength 1to resist attacks of disease. -< ->—————-——-—- A Legislative Reunion at SavinRock.
