A RIVAL'S OPINION OF NEW ZEALAND COAL

A speolal report on the Newcastle coal Industry, which appears m the " Sydney Morning Herald" of the 13th Inst, con tains the following : — " At present our largest market is the sister colony of Victoria, and Adelaide Is also a very large purchaser of our bituminous wareß, Now Zealand, however, which used to take considerable shipments from us. is ecu tented now with a very limited supply, as local mines are opening up rapidly In both the North and South Tsl u*s I the latter esppc!a,ly the coal is of a very superior quality; and the Gove__enL support ' local Industry,' and use It on the railways and m various other ways, and find it no more costly than buying the Newcastle coal. Bu v > even if they did, the well-known Protection proclivities of our Insular neighbors would, m this respect,

tend to m j are the Newcastle trade to a leaser or greater degree." _-"■'. " — -

THE GROWTH AND EVILS OE ARSENIC EATING

: » The habit of araecfc eating, Bays the New York." Evening Post," is beooming tnoro and more common among the young 1 women f that city, and the physicians say , thit nothing too harsh can be uttered agalust this miserable practice. Arsenic preparations of all kinds are advertised, and various preparations of this deadly drug are daily soldiVr the alleged purpose of beautifying the complexion They who use lt are daily laying the foundation of a disease that will one day destroy some of their most vital organs. Toe actual object to be gained by arsenic eating is that clear, white, almost transparent skin whioh tbey do so much admire, aud which may mean an early death. Again, the reiulta obtained by the use of arsenio •how very plainly the hurtful nature of It. The exact state of affairs brought about by arsenio eating is a diminution of tbe Strength of (he blood ; the capillary blood vessels are stopped fron working ; the ends of the bloodvessels are killed ; no blood is supplied to the ekin, and the real reason for the white, transparent rature of the skin is that it is practically dead, If the result of arsenic eating is the highly transparent state of the skin, and if this can only result from tbe killing of bloodvessels, the claim that there is no harm m the habit becomes an absurdity. Physicians throughout New York are up m arms against the use of the drug One prominent doctor said :— " I hope some thing will be done, and done soon, to stop this abominab'e traffic If the destruction of the bloodvessels was the only thing the arsenic eater succeeded m doing, it would be bad enough ; but that is not all. The araenic has a bad effect upon the k ; dneyß, and is likely to bring on a disease which will end only m death. It haa also a bad effect on the digestive organs, and soon destroys their action ; the liver, too, is diseased by the poison, and tbe nerves become affected] to such an extent that their control becomes impossible. It acts upon the system m such a way that the victim of the habit becomes lost to all sense of morality, .he practice of arsenic eating is a vicious one that ought to be . stopped immediately before any more harm is done."

A SEWAGE FARM.

During the sitting of the Intercolonial Medical Congress at Adelaide about 50 members, the larger proportion of whom were members of the profession from the other colonies, paid a visit to the sewage farm. Owing to the wtst weather, things were seen at their worst, but all expressed themselves as highly pleased with what they saw. After Inspecting the place where the whole of the sewage matter from the city and these parts of the suburbs which are connected with the system la received and distributed over the land, and the whole system had been fully explained, the pariy visited the buildings m which the cattle are kept, the piggeries, and other buildings. The Adelaide "Observer" says:— "The sewage farm is situated about five miles north-east of the Adelaide post-office, and about 3i miles from the wi stern boundary of the city. It receives the drainage from waterclosets and tbe liquid filth from the homes m North and South Adelaide and p-.rta of the corporate towns of Hindmarsh, Thebarton, St. Peter, and Kensington and Norwood. It covers an area of about 470 acreß, of which morn than 250 acres are under cultivation. The estimated number of inhabitants m the towna drained ty the far.ns is 68,000, but at present only a small part of Kensington and N rw;od haa been oonnected. Taking the Adelaide Post Office as a starting point, the fall to tha boundary of the farm is 113 fact, and to the lowest part i of it 136 feet. The sewage is carried by '• gravitation, and it la calculated that soil '■ will pass from the centre of the oity to the ! boundary of the farm m from o_* to two ' hours. All the houses are pr t'd ed from the passage of sewer gas by properly con- 1 atrooted traps. The ventilation of tho ] streets and main sewers is effected partly by manholes opening at intervals Lto the ' centre of tee streets. It was found on trial that tbe original design for ventilators - was not effective, and lhi smell from the ventilators m soma parts of the city caused loud complaint. Tho evil was re medied by closing the. street ventilators and carrying op long ventilating pipes by the sides of houses m the course of the aewers. ' Blnoe this alteration no complaints have . been reoalved. On re*ching the farm the ' sewage Is strained first by iron gratings, ! which keep back tbe larger substances, - and afterwards by being passed through ! en immense revolving wheel, with meahes *t its circumference, which keep back all substances above £ inch m me. The >.l solid portion of the sewage (a ojJkoted m a carts and carried away for Immediate use t on the farm. The liquid poitlon, after A pssslng the straining house, is diitrlbuted li In troughs so arranged that the supply to n any part of the farm can be regulated at S will. The farm ia worked chiefly on the v Irrigation principle, the liquid being £ passed on to parts as reqalred !* A small part of the farm Is worked m £ 7i£!f ° VJ S _ W , tralion principle, the £ filtration beds being under-dralned, and _ the efflaent water being carried eff clear s and almost tasteless into the North Arm m %J'a VT nl L G ? ]t The fft ™ " S divided into paddocks for depasturing nc purposes, and for cultivation of Italian «" ryegrass, lucerne, mangolds, sorghum wheat, barley, vines, and wattles. " live stock on the farm may be * r ' t I m round numbers at 300 cow lhe 300 sheep, and 150 plgp •><■ down over expenditure m ... 20 horses, were last year ar> . The receipts tbesewagawo' 1 . working expenses The inter'- £900. The cost of *-d V* . _a has been about £361,000. C^ .at Is paid by rates on tho land ..uses to which the Bewers have been .fled. The Income is about £20,2)0, the working expenses are about £5800, leaving a balanca of about £14 000, or say 4 per cent on the outlay. The cost of connecting houees with the sewers is paid by the owners, but the Government will undertake the work when requested, and allow the cost to be paid by quarterly payments extending over 6 years. Interest at the rate of 5 per cent being paid on the balances. The water supply to the towns where the deep drainage is carried obtained from the Adelaide water works ; It is abundant, couttint, and un stinted for domestic use, It is the opinion of the hydraulio engineer that the refuse water from houses would be sufficient to cleanse the sewers, but it is the practice to occasionally resort to flushing from the waterpipes.

THE CHINESE IN SAN FRANCISCO

(' Anti Chinaman ") A detective In San Franolsoo, meeting an old friend, an Australian m'ner, says we indu'ged m a cocktail, and started ou a tour to the Chinese quarter, I being on duty at the time. We wtnt up Washing ton-street to Murderers alley, and turn d down Jackson street. This is were the we «m was murdered In the night, within ten luot of where hundreds of people were oomlng and going all the time. Her murderer, a Chinaman, after rubbing the place coolly washed tbe blood off his hands and face and walked away. After tedious investigation I saw him hanged for lt. Says he, here where we stand is where an other Chinaman cut his runaway mletr. ss openwi'h along Chinese dagger. I saw that villainous individual pass m his obcquea Ani fuither on we iroreed. Here, he remarks, is where one of our men of tbe foro9 got plugged with a eix sho ter. I thanked my kind frleud for his ebt-erfnl Information, but suggested that it might be as well to keep a little of it back fcr another time, that it was not good to exhaust all tho pleasant things of this life at one sitting, so the tubjeot was obligingly changed. lam quite oatefied that the name of tbe alley Is well deserved and appropria'e Swarms of Chinese womenl with almond eyes end baby faoes, painted red and whl'e In the most lavish manner, lips touched with Vermillion, hair black and glossy with a most offensive smell, and clsd m blue satin pants and coats, trotted along the alley, .their Curious woodet.soled shoos rattling like to hoofs of a flock of sheep as they went. Others tapped on the window-panes to attract our attention as we passed a regular pandemonium of debauchery and orime. Before one house we saw some j iss stricks burning, and the white oloth festooned over the door told that death was there. Enquiring into tbe cause of the defunct's death, we found that it was one of the worst forms of leprosy. We soon ra»de tracks, not wishing to come m contact with that spicy disease. Going further ou be said, " We will step into the dens, and see where they live and die." Leading the way into a dark passage running from the street into the centre of the block we stumbled along for acme fifty feet, and came to a ricketty, dirty stairway, whioh we desosnded, feeling our way along step by step until we stiod In a Btinking courtyard, surrounded with high buildings. For a moment or so we could see nothing, but the stenoh from rotten vegetables was enough to kill a polecat. The place was literally swarming with the lowest class of the Mongolian population, We struck a match on the wall and lit a candle, and drew out our shooting Irons In case of trouble, Immediately a number of curious faces peeped at us from be hind a lot of old guuny bags, whioh took the place of windows pnd doors m tbe basement walls. A dozen or two ol dirty, dilaoidated, demorallsed-looklng, villlanous Oeleatia's "oame out from different corners, and stood with theit hands In their pookets, regarding us witfc evident suspicion as unauthorised In truders.

WHY AM I SO MISERABLE ?

So weak and languid? Why such heart bums and pains m the stomach, such acidity, and such an unpleasant taste m the mouth i Why at times such a gnawing appetite, and then again such disrelish for food ? Why is the mind so frequently irritable, desponding, melancholy and dejected? Why docs one often feel under the apprehension of some imaginary danger, and start at any unex pected noise, becoming agitated as though some great calamity was impending? Wh.-.t is the meaning of these dull, sick headaches ; these violent palpitations of the heart, this feverish •< stlessnsss, these night sweats; this di tmbed and dreamy sleep, which brings no refieshir.g rest, but enly moanings and mutterings, and ».he horrors of the nightmare? The answer is : These are but the symptoms of Indigestion or Dyspepsia— the beginning and the forerunner of almost every other huroan disease. Indigestion is a weakness or want of power of the digestive fluids of the stomach to conver. the food into healthy matter for the proper nourishment of ihe body. It is caused most frequently by the irregularity of diet, or improper food, want of healthy exercise and pure outdoor air. It may ,be induced by mentab distress— l\ ie sho kof some great calamity. It may be. and often is, aggravated and intensified, \(' not orieinally brought on, by exhausttr, a f rom intense mental application, of physical over work, domes' ic troubles, anxiety _ business Such a medicine is happily v^ nan( j # j\.' ever m the history of medical discoveries, evi denced by a dozen years* thorough test, has there been found a remedy for Indigestion *o speedy, so sure, and so surprising m its results as Seigel s Curative Syrup, but to-day it is a stand-ird remedy fcr that almost universal affliction m tvery civilised country m Europe, As-a, Africa and, America. Public testimonials and pnvate letters from military officer*, bankeis, merchants, ship captains, mechanics, farmers, and their wives and daughters, alike confirm Its curative powers.

We havo been a Firm of Analytical Chemists for many, many years and have In the long course of this time manufactured oertaln Medicines that being based on scientific formula and absolute care and precision In mennffceture, have enjoyed a popularity far m advance of any other Pharmaceuti- cal Preparations of the day. How suo- oeesful we havo been m this, Is only to note the extraordinary amount of the tales of our Haydook a New Liver Pill, We have the pleasure to state that we have sold 28,089 Vials of Dr Haydook's Now Liver Pills. The reason of this de- mand is because we find In Haydook' New Liver Pills a wonderful and extra ordinary combination of concentrated medicine. The Victories of Science— Eleotrio Telegraphs, Steam and Printing — revolutionised the whole system of the globe, and made mankind wiser and bet- ter. 30, although there are oountlooa Pills used fcr diseases and claiming xnuob as to their merit, 4 the remarkable dis- covery of Dr Haydook has eclipsed them all, and has founded a New Medloal Sys- tem. The Doctors, whose vast doses of four or five pills enfeeble the stomach and paralyse the bowels, must give way to the man who restores health' and appetite with one or two of his extraordinary Vegetable Pills. One or two of Dr Hay- dook's New Liver Pills suffices to place the stomach In perfeot order creates an appetite, and renders the spirit light and buoyant. If the Liver is affected its func- tions are restored, and if the Nervous System is enfeebled, it Is invigorated and sustained. TRANSLATION. Aykab, Provlrceof Burmah, 8.1.
