artesian water conveyed through the

tie water and induce disease. The
battle of the Doctors has waged fierce.
ly for some time, and now the Council
proposes to request the opinion of the
National Board of Health on this vital
question, as, in its opni on, the local
medical fraternity will never decide
the matter.
As wAs EXPECTED, CONKIANG HAS
secuired the votes of New York foi
Grant. The Blaine men and anti
third-terners showed fight, but under,
gag-law the machine carried its point
by thirty-seven majority. This Is a
very poor showing for the assertion
that the people demand Grant, but for
all practical purposes it is good
enough. The ex-President has secur
ed New York, Pennsylvania and Ver
mont, and expects to bag Illinois in a
short time. Ai enthusiastic third
termner, who is evidently itching for a
fat. post-offiee, blasphemnously alluded
to Grant as the "God of Battln," and
was as blasphemously appllauded.
Whether Conkling can deliver the
goods he has promised remains to be
seen. The Rlepublicani "scratchers" of
New York have already declared their
determination to vote for a Democrat
in opposition to Grant or Blaine, and
the Germans helcd aln enthusiastic

at wlhicih they resolved to have nao

Shuject.
From the Memphis Avalanche.
The full text of the opinion of Judge
.J. 0. Pierce, delivered recently in the
Circuit. Court of Shelby county, in a
case of garnbling in futu'res, is present
ed on the second page. The Judge de
cides thit dealing in option contracts is
a misdemennor, according to the Stat
utes of Teninessee, amid that it is tie
duty of the grand Jury, now in session,
to Institute proceedmings against any
party in Shelby county who ire engag
ed ill encouraguing parties to bet Oil the
prices of merhiand ise, or whIo f are keep
ing any plalce of resort for such pur
pose. Under the laws of Tenmessee,
parties buyiig "At1ttures" in grain, cot
ton or othr merchandilise are "gaim
blers." Time statites are plain and im
perative. It, is no more nor less law
ful for A to "'copper the ace" in Sema
tor Blessing's palatial establishment
than it is for C to bet with D that
wheat will rise three cents in thirty
days. That is the law. As a question
of morals, the superior demoralizing
tendencies ogallblilg in ''futures" are
thil forcibly illustrated by Judge
Pierce:
''The per'nicous results followilg this
species orgambling have often been ex
posed by tile courits. Though the
practice be simple gaming, it assules
the garb and claies the ionors of le
gitilate trade. It is of all modes of
gating, most reprehensible and most
deserviig ofthe penalties prescribed
by the law, because, by Its impudent
assuumptiou of virtue it succeeds in ei
trapping Imally ersons who are, in all
other respects, honest and law-abiding
citizens. Doubtless many of the wit
nesses in this case, who, according to
their own testimony, have speculated
inl 'futures,' were ignorant of the law
breaking which the speculations in
The "perniclous results" of gambling
in futures are wile-spread. What was
at. first, believed to be a harmless wa'ver
on tile future price of a commodity FaS
grown ny1u to be a monstrous evil, saip
ping the toutndaltiol of honest dealinei
in every direction. Under the shad'
ows of 'respectability, and with the fat
cilities afforded of carry ing large oper
ations with "margins, a recklessspir
it of speculation has been developed,
which lihas resulted in the establishment
of a national system of gambling, ot so
vast proportioits is to dwarf into noth
ingness the Old system of the noble
art of "chance." Lotteries and King
F.ro must step to the rear. The de
moralization attending the gambling,
spirit under the inspiration of "'puts
111d calls" is visible on ever hand.
To Its poisonous inlfluenmcc must be as
cribed the cause of thme great majority
of defalcations, which have become so;
alarmingly freq uent. But the very
genmeral dlemioralizration is nlot thme oly
evil connected with the gambling in
"futures." There is the positive injut
ry Inflicted on thte conisumners of the
whole coun try by thme arbitrary powver
p~laced in the'hands of op~tioni buyers,
un~der the facilities afforded them inl
raising the price of conmmodities. This
phase of thme gambling business is often
illustrated. Twio or three New York
gamblers go into the Chicago market
with a million dollars and piut up
"matlrgins" 011 all thme meat and~ grain in
W'esterni markets, andi raise the p rices
beyond their actual market vale to
all consumers of those articles, in the
country. And so It is with all articles
dealt in by the ''future" gamblers.
Gambling mn grain or cotton, or any'
other commod0(ity, is ant unitigatcil
evil, and should he abolished. The
laws of Trennmessee againlst it should be
strictly enforced, and all other St ates
should pass and enforce laws to the'
same etleet.

Senator Butler Tells How They Do in
Rhode Island-A Needed Rleformi.
A Washingtont dispatch says: "Sena
tor Butler, of South Carolina, p~reset
ed tihe inajority rep~ort to-day oin the
inv'esti gatmons made by the Senate
CommiFttee on Civil Service and lie
trenchmnent last summer. The conm

the alleged dlischarge f-om civil office
of certalin ox -soldiers of Rthode Island,
ini violation of the lRevised Statutes,
which direct that wounded soldiers antd
sailors shall be given the preference in
makinig appointmients to civil offce.
The report states that the testitmony
shows beyond dispute that the Statutes
in question had been violated, and that
discharged Union soldiers wvere supI
planted wvholly wvithtout cautse. The
majority say the civil service of this
governiment inever will be reformed and
and purified so long as those charged
with Its admistration violate Its plain
est principles it appointments to office.
Thte mere premulgation of civil servIce
rules, orders amnd regulations is a farce,
while the officials upont whomn they are
intended to operate, are incapable or
wilfully and contemptuously ignore
them. The cure of the evil rests with
Congress and the aproinlting power,
and the responsibilIty for thte condition
of affairs, as disclosed by the evidence,
faistens itself there also. The report Is

A TURKISH TRAGEIY.
WilyAbdul Ahia was Deposed-A Woman,
adt Not theo People, at the Bottom of ti.
Affair.
From the New York Herald.
Our readers will remember that in
January we laid before theim an un
disguised narrative of the origin and
netlods of thut peculiar revolution
which in May, 1876, put one Sultan
aside aid put another in his place
without ally apparent reasol that the
public could comprehend at the time.
We showed then that the will of the
people, which was assigiled in the bul
letils as the auithority for the deposi
tion, could have less relatioln to events
of that iature lin Turkey than in any
other country in the world, and, in
short, that this was merely a name
given by an abuse common enough in
all history to a very narrow intrigue.
"Will of tile people" is a Convenient
phrase. It cal consecrate the wretch
ed trickery of our own thimlblerigging
politicilhi in coniventions and returu
ing boards, and why should it not
give dignity to the revelge of a Mos
lemt lover?
HUSSEIN AVNI PACIIA,
the Grand Vizier, loved the third wife
of the Sultan Abdul Aziz, anl was
favored by her. But she was also
loved by IIassan Bey, one of the Sul
tan's aitles-de-calp, who was also the
Sult an's brother-in-law, since Hassani's
sister was the Sultan's fourtlh wife.
Iassan, because of this near relatioff
to a rival wife, was not to be 'trusted
by the fair Mrs. Bluebeard of the
story, anl so was made an enraged
aildi not a ilhappy lover. Jealouq of the
success of his rival, lassan told the
story of the iltrigue to Ilis sister, in
fornied 1er tlit the third wife was
tuifaithful to tile Sultan, and that it
was her duty to comnnuiicate tils un
pleasant news to his savage Majesty.
She told tie Sultan and he killed his
third wife-a-beat her to death in the
palace, ats hitherto related. Thereby
the Sultan set. fin moti6 the machinery
that was to Cild in Ilis own ruin, for
how could lussein Avid Pacha, who
heard within an hour of what. had
happened to the fair partner of his
guilt, imagine that the Sultan, know
ing of her offience, should not know of
hils? lie understood consequently
that it was nlecessary to provide for
his own safety. II a du1 a la morte,
therefore, a inodern Sultan, his will
entingled in all the confusion of the
apparatus of authority, is no match for
the practised head of' tie government,
used to manouvring that apparatus.
So it was here, and before the Sultan
could lift a finger he was dethroned
by the contrivance of the Vizier.
For the moment, therefore,

might have mounted the throne him

that slilppery elevatin, and this would
have been a continuation so much Ill
the origlinal vein of Ottoman history
that it also would have commendedl
itself to the "will of the nation." But
Hussein was not picking himself out
a throne just then. In fact, it may
have occurred to him as aii inferenice
from the circumnstanlces that a throne

No steps wore taken, apparently, to
ascertain how his secret h ad reached

of the evil wnas untouched In the 1)a1

tipsly about In half the cafes..of Coin-.

ly deposit IN whlichi he wold prove
absolutely Innocuous. Hce those
scissors. Our narrative folly justifies
the suspicion with wvhich from the
first the whole civilized wvorld regard
ed1 thle report of the Sultan's suicide.
Hlassan's sister endeavored to enlight..
on Sultan Murad on the history of thie
recent events and upoin the death of
his uniele, but as the ~imperial house
hold was keenly regulated by Huhitil
hecr communication fell into his hands,
and ho hastily concluded that - such
phenomninal garrulity justified every
p~ossible interference with Its owner's

the story of the Sultan's ruin, as It
started in his jealousy. hlassan, for a
thoroughbred Circassiani, seems to
have been as good a Turk as anyof
them, and lhe certainly carr~ied his
Jealous rage to Its logical end.
After the death of his sister, Hfassan~
