An exciting melange of equestrian -and acrobatic

It is impossible, delightful as it would be,
even to enumerate the list of attractions which are to

ATLAHTA'8 COTTON EXHIBITIOIV.
The outset of the proposed ootton exhibi
tion at Atlanta, Georgia, in -whose behalf
Mr. H. L Kimball recently viaited this city,
is reported as suooessf ol beyond all expecta
tion. Much interest is taken in it at the
North, but in the South the feeling is said to
amount to positive enthusiasm. It is, says
one of the prominent movers in the enter
prise, undoubtedly the most important step
taken oh behalf of the South since the war,
and is so considered by the southern people,
whorlook upon it as a manifestation of fra
ternal feeling, and expect to demonstrate to
the North through it. that, whatever politi
cians on either side of Mason & Dixon's line
may say and do, the planters and business
men of the South are ready and anxious to
establish the most intimate business and so
cial relations with the other parts of a coun
try Which they are fully ready to regard as
one common Union.
Applications for space are pouring in, and
Ov.r $20G;000 has been raised thus far
.towards paying expenses The exhibition is
to be held in Oglethorpe Park, and the main
building was begun last Monday, 300 men
being put at work .upon it. This building
will be 750 feet long by 00 wide, with a tran
sept in the center of the same width and 500
feet long, and will be devoted to exhibits of
textile fabrics and the machinery for produc
ing them. Another building. 250 feet long
by 100 feet wide, will be filled with machin
err for nreoarins sugar, rice and similar
products. A still larger one will contain ex
hibits of all varieties of tobacco, its products,
machinery and everything connected with it.
A building on the plan of that which contain.
ed the Kansas and Colorado exhibits at the
Centennial Exposition will be given up to a
comprehensive display of the agriculture, the
minerals and the woods of the South. This
display is to be made chiefly by the southern
railroads, which are ' co-operating to
make it the fullest and most compre
hensive ever seen. All the territory south of
t the Ohio river will be ransacked for suitable
objects to show there, and the result is ex
pected to be a most important display of the
surface and underground wealth of the
South. There -will also be a building for for
eign exhibits, a large restaurant and a "press
pavilion."
One very interesting exhibit will be a cot
ton field showing the plant in all stages of
growth. Thirty acres of the park have been
laid out in half-acre lots, and given to
many different . planters for a competitive
trial of skill in cultivation. . Fains have been
taken to make this a complete display of ev
ery variety of cotton in the world. Seed has
been imported from Africa, India and other
parts of the world, sometimes at great ex
pense, a single half-pound of a certain, rare
variety having cost $200 in gold. This plan
tation has been already seeded, and is now
being cultivated under the general direction
of Mark Hardin, a well known representative
Southern planter. Material for another in.
teresting display is being gathered by Mr,
Edward Atkinson, who has charge of the for
eign exhibit of fabrics and fibres, and is col
lecting specimens of every variety of ootton
goods, fibres, and primitive machinery for
treating them. He is ransacking every por
tion of the world to make his gathering com
plete. A full display of agricultural imple
ments will also be made.
If this enterprise is carried out as is now
contemplated it will be of great benefit to
the South, and its planners and managers
will deserve the gratitude of the people of
that section.
E1UTOKIAL JiOTES.
Lands in most of the southern States show
a handsome increase in value over last year's
prices. In South Carolina farming land is
worth from 18 to 25 per cent, more than it
was one year ago.
The astounding statement is made that for
358,000,000 tons of marketable coal taken
from the middle and northern Schuylkill
fields, prior to 1870, there was a waste from
breakage of 716,000,000 tons. How to utilize
the vast deposits of worthless coal dust
around the mines is one of the problems of
the future.
There seems to be little or no reason to
doubt that the long and interesting letters
concerning the situation at Washington which
were published in the New York Herald yes
terday and Tuesday emanated from Senator
ConUing. The 'Washington correspondent
of the Boston Advertiser says it is believed
in Washington that the appearance of these
letters indicates that Conkling has abandoned
his purpose of making a personal attack on
the President in open Senate.
Some of those who have experienced the
effects of the Elmira (New York) Reforma
tory seem to have a decided objection to an
other course of reform there. David Bisbey,
of New York city, attempted suicide Wednes
day, when it was proposed to send him back
to the Reformatory, and when he thought he
was dying declared he would rather die than
go back. A little more than a year ago a
young man who had been released on parole
from the Reformatory and was arrested for
violating his parole, rather thanreturn to the
institution committed suicide by jumping
from a window.
Protestantism has made scarcely any pro
gress in Mexioo, according to a correspon
dent fof the St. Louis Globe-Democrat, who
also says that there is little religion of any
kind among the Mexican masses. "There is
no end of missionary societies," he adds,
with missionaries at this end and collec
tions at the other end, and reports of con
versions, and chapels, and Bibles, but the
tree of their faith is a weakly exotic. A few
Mexicans, say one in ten thousand, may be
come sincere converts, and it sometimes pays
to be converted, for the government would
not object to raising a little dike of Protestant
faith against the great flood of Catholicism.
But there is all there is to it. A good school
or a well-tended orphanage will flourish, as
it would without regard to denomination."
One of the . professors at the Women's
Medical College of Pennsylvania has been
gathering statistical information as to the
success of the 276 women who have gradu
ated from that institution. He states that
thirty-two are dead, twenty-three have given
np practice, and from fifty-five nothing could
be learned. Of the remainder, twenty-four
are receiving from their practice not less than
$1,000 and not more than $2,000 a year ;
twenty are receiving not less than $2,000, but
less than $3,000 ; ten as much as $3,000, and
less than $4,000 ; five as much as $4,000, and
less than $5,000 ; three as much as $5,000,
and less than $15,000 ; four between $15,000
and $20,000 ; of seventy-six who reported to
the professor, only ten haoV an income last
year from their practice of less than $1,000.
The average income was. $4,907.30. . Three
of the graduates have amassed comfortable
fortunes and have retired from active prac
tice. This would be a good showing for even
a "male" college. .
' An interesting question as to the duty of a
director towards a shareholder when a direc
tor purchases shares from a shareholder .has
been decided by Vice-Chancellor Bacon of
London. The question was whether a direc
tor of company is justified in . buying the
shares of a- shareholder in that company
without disclosing to him- everything whjch
has come to the knowledge of the director.
The Vice-Chancellor in rendering an elabo
rate opinion answered the question emphati
cally in the negative. The defendant in the
case which affected certain railway shares
was a director who had bought ' of the
plaintiff, a shareholder, certain shares at the
market rate and had made no representa
tions as to their real value, although he pos
sessed "inside" knowledge that the shares
were worth much more than the market val
ue, and by the use of this knowledge after
the purchase made a large profit. The' Vice
Chancellor not only granted an inquiry as to
the extent of the profit, but ordered the
shares to be replaced in the name of the
plaintiff-shareholder.
The blacking of boots appears to be a
profitable occupation for some of the New
York "shiners." It is related -that there is
one young man in New York, who does the
"shining" for a down-town restaurant, and
who does not think he has done an average
day's business unless his receipts for his eight
working hours, amount to at least $3. And,
moreover, lie is an exceedingly independent
young man, will black boots for no one who
does not treat him civilly.indulges in a month's
vacation each summer, patronizes the opera,
and discourses fluently, if not always dis
criminatingly, in regard to tenor and prima
donna. Still another of the fraternity. a
youngster hardly well in his teens was the
other day heard to exclaim, with a grand air,
to a fellow-toiler in another field, "Pshaw !
I couldn't be hired to Bell newspapers." A
story comes from Albany to the effect that a
bootblack in that city has saved $2,500 from
his earnings of the past eight years, besides
paying his mother, for the greater portion of
the time, board at the rate of $8 a week.
These are truly shining examples.
There is nothing like a loving, faithful, un
selfish wife. Mr. George H. Higgins.of New
York city, married many years ago a widow
with two daughters. He now testifies that
during twenty-three years he was in the em
ploy of A. T. Stewart t Co., earning a large
salary, which he turned over to his wife for
investment in his behalf, his duties so en
grossing his attention that h? could not at
tend to the matter himself. She invested
part of the money in real estate in her own
name and part in the names of her two
daughters, and a grandson. When he left
the employ of A. T. Stewart & Co., on ac
count of ill-health, his wife refused to
allow him to live with her or to provide him
with money, and sent him to the Bellevue
Hospital, first taking from him his diamond
jewelry, gold watch and other valuables.
Then she procured his incarceration in the
Middletown lunatic asylum on the plea that
he was insane. He remained there six
months, and then she sent him to Chicago,
paying his fare and giving him a little
money. She advised him, he said, to take
laudanum and end his troubles, as there was
no hereafter, and then she could get the
amount of insurance upon his life.

Water.
Its Varlons Relations te Animal and Veg
etable Life, and Especially to Man
kind When laving In Large Nsmbera on
Lttmlted Areas on the Earta's Surface.
By Patrick Clark of Rah way. N. J.J
The more modern .researches of physi
ologists and chemists, aided by modern scien
tific instruments, develop the fact that by
weight man, and in fact nearly the whole of
the animal life throughout the globe, consists
of about eighty per cent, of itater and twenty
of other matter, mainly carbon and lime, and
the investigations of tbe students of natural
history that it( water) is the mother's womb
from which has developed the whole range of
animal and vegetable life, from the simplest
nomad to the most complex organism It
performs a countless variety- of functions in
the material world in combination with other
substances. By its aid the coral insect has
built the foundations of our continents; to its
great solvent powers is due the whole of the
limestone formation, the most abundant on
the globe. r Mountains hawe been' lifted to
their astonishing height by volcanic action gen
trated by its combination with sulphuret of
iron, and then torn down again and carried
into tbe sea by its mechanical force, thus lay
ing the foundation for new and fertile conti
nents when the old ones are worn out by
man's profligacy. In fact, only for water and
the law of its crystallization (viz., that it ex--pands
in the act of crystallizing), the whole
surface of our globe would be to-day a barren
rock. A substance so intimately connected
with our physical well-being will repay some
study. In their primitive condition human
beings were distributed over a large area of
the earth's surface compared with their num
bers: Assuming that the family relation al
ways existed, yet primitive man was pastoral,
nd consequently the number of human be
ings and their domestic animals . did not ex
ceed one hundred to the square mile, which
is a greater number than exist to-day, in a
very large area of our own continent. Their
habits were simple; they had no chemical or
other factories which now pollute the natural
streams. Nature had provided for the nat
ural conditions as they existed, and men and
animals were supplied with pure and wholt .
some water from nature's springs and rivers.
The pure rain-water, rendered impure by com
ing in contact with effete material on the earth's
surface, became purified by percolation down
ward through the earth by means of the roots
of growing vegetation. That which flowed
into the rivers was purified by the growing
animal and vegetable life with which
the rivers abounded. The smaller
forms of aquatic life instead of dying, were
eaten alive by the larger and by aquatic
birds, and these in turn died in the larger
streams at or near the ocean: and the ocean
being saline, the decaying animal and vege
table matter was rendered innoxious by the
action of chloride of soda with which the
ocean abounds; the pure water being separat
ed by evaporation, to again be carried over
the earth by the air and again fall in the form
of pure rain-water. Such was the condition
of the habitable world when, according to the
Bible, mankind reached the extreme age of
one thousand years.
Had the primitive condition continued, no
farther effort on the part of mankind would
have been required than to provide for their
ordinary necessities; but under an immutable
law of nature (viz., the law of aggregation),
men built hamlets, towns, and cities, th- a ag
gregating a dense population on a small area.
Then began the various devastating diseases
known as plague, cholera, typhus and typhoid
fevers, with all their type, from yellow fever
down to malarial. We need only refer to the
terrible devastations of these diseases
throughout all . western Asia during the
last three thousand years to verify this state
ment. Baalbec, Nineveh, Babylon and Pal
myra, ruined and formerly lost cities, attest the
truth of our statement, to say nothing of the
lost and ruined cities of ancient Greece, or
Bagdad, which-still remains to tell annually
the mournful story of a want of proper san
itary conditions. If the towns and cities of
this country or Europe were to-day depen
dent on a local supply of water for domestic
purposes, they would be annually devastated
by epidemic diseases, the penalty for our neg
lect in the matter of sanitary precautions.
When men and other animals congregate to
gether and live in dense masses, the effete mat
ter resulting from such conditions becomes
so abundant that vegetation and the lower
forms of animal life fail to appropriate it, and
consequently the earth in and about cities be
comes saturated with it, contaminating the
pure rain-water with its noxious qualities,
which, when drawn from our wells and taken
into the stomach, produces the various epi
demic diseases which carry us to a premature
grave. It follows, that if the foregoing is
true (and the investigations of the learned
men of the world prove it to be so), that in
densely populated communities, well water,
whether obtained from driven or open wells
or springs, is liable to be unhealthy, and con
sequently that the supply of water for pota
ble and culinary purposes should not be ob
tained from the ground on which these com
munities dwell. From whence then shall com
munities derive their supplies? Fortunately
science and art supply the means of deter
mining this question, science (which is only
the result of observation and experience re
duced to a system) pointing out the way, and
art following the directions. The science of
geometry has measured the earth's surface,
and has also given us a knowledge of its gen- -eral
as well as detailed conformation. The
science of geology has given us a knowledge
of its structure belcno the surface. The science
of chemistry has given us a knowledge of its
elementary combinations, while botany and
zoology give us a knowledge of the natural
history of its plants and animals. The subject
of the natural history of aquatio plants
and animals and their relation to
the subject matter of this article
has already been touched upon. It is there
fore only necessary to inquire, in the light
of the foregoing, from whence the supply of
water for potable and culinary purposes for
towns and cities should be derived ? Plainly
not from the ground on which they are built,
but from tne sparsely populated hills and val
leys of the country; in a word from the
source of our rivers which empty into the
ocean. In applying the foregoing to that
part of the State of New Jersey lying between
the mountains and Staten Island Sound, and
the Passaic and Earitan rivers, it follows
that the only healthy source of water supply
for the towns and cities located within these
boundaries is the two ri ers before mention
ed, and the three rivers emptying into the
Sound at Bah way, in which may be included s
small stream at Elizabeth and one at New
Brooklyn. The water of these streams is
pure and healthy when taken from them and
immediately used. Nature is wise; she has
provided perfectly for the health and well be
ing of the whole range of animal and vegeta
ble life; but when her conditions are changed
by artificial means, then begin the troubles of
which we so much complain. If we take tha
pure and healthy water of her rivers, teeming
with lower forms of animal and vegetable life

hours per day during summer (in the tempe

most as unhealthy as if pumped from the im
mediate neighborhood of our sinks and cess
pools. Hence it follows that the delicate and
low forms of aquatic life should be kept out

Ihe foregoing may be suDDlemented bv tha
olio wing statement, which will add to it that
practical force which is so highly prized by
mosE people. -
The writer took charge of tbe Rah way -water-works
on the first of June, 1879. The
pumping station is on the north branch of
tne Kahway nver, which f urmshea a mini
mum supply of ten million gallons of water
every twenty-four hours. The works have
no reservoir or stand pipe, but pump direct
ly against tha mains. Two duplex compound
engines are used alternately month about
each engine - being capable of pumping ona
and one-half millions every twenty-four hours.
The daily consumption of the city is about.
five hundred thousand, but tha amount for
short periods occasionally runs up to on mil
lion gallons. The water remaining in the re
serve pumps and mains always became gross,
ly offensive at the end of tt ree or four days
after the stoppage of the pumps. In June,
1880. sand niter was placed between tha
works and the river. The result was that the
water remaining in the idle pumps and mains
at the end of a month was sweet and palate
hie.
