OLD NEW YORK MARKETS.
Taej- Did Tbina;a Differently- In Tows
' Tare Hundred Years Ago. .
It ia more than 300 years since the au
thorities o New Amsterdam resolved
"to erect a meat market and cover it
with tiles, to have a block boug-httbere-in,
and to leave the key with Andries,
the baker, who shall have temporary
charge thereof." This-was the pioneer
New York market, established on' the
green in what is now Battery park,
and it was resolved by the authorities
of the same time that the t-attle should
be hitched "beside the churchyard,
where some stakes were fixed "on Broad
way, a little above Morris street. For
a few years this was the only market
in New York, but the local reformers
Of the time, insistisg presumably upon
a change, it was determined to open a
fair or market for the sale of store and
fat cattle, steers, cows, sheep, goats,
hogs, bucks, and such like," and to that
end stalls were built. This market was
opened on October 20 of each year, and
was kept open until the last day of No
vember. ! Twenty j'ears later a market
was opened on what was called "the
water side,"" near the bridge which
spanned Wall street, and it was thrown
open to the public on March 24, 1677,
and continued open every Saturday fol
lowing for three years. At the expira
tion of three years market day was
changed to Wednesday, and in 1683 an
other step in advance was taken. There
were three markefaeys in each week
Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. But
the precipitate zeal and energy of the
old Dutch inhabitants could not be re
strained even by the conservative
burgomasters, and so in 1684 it was
ordered that thereafter "fish shall be
brought for sale to the dock opposite
the City hall and may also be sold in
the bouse ' that Long Mary formerly
lived in likewise herbs, fruits, roots,
&c." Afterward the Broadway market
house was leased out to Henry Cross
ley, a butcher, who stipulated to pay
for it for seven years a rental of one
pound per annum, and keep it in good
repair
As the city of New Amsterdam was
at that time somewhat short of funds,
a plan was adopted, which, in these
days,, would never obtain the favor of
the board of estimate and apportion
ment. It was arranged that each mar
ket should be built and kept in repair
by the neighbors, and at the end of 50
years it was to belong, to the city. Jn
this manner a two-story building was
erected by the neighbors at the foot of
Broad street. Another was put up on
Hanover equare-not then Hanover
square and a third at the foot of Maid
en lane. The latter subsequently came
to be known as the Fly market and had
a practical monopoly of the business of
the city on that side of the town until
the establishment by the neighbors of
a market at the foot of Wall street, to
be known as the Meal market. It was
"established exclusively for the sale of
corn and meal," and also "slaves stood
for sale or to be let to hire" at this
point. In 1735 these primitive market
arrangements were done away with and
the present system, since enlarged and
improved, superseded it. The city now
receives in a year in market rents $285,
000, exclusive of vault rents and market
permits. The whole public revenue
from this source is about $300,000 a
year, and Comptroller Fitch has in
creased it beyond the receipts of any
of his predecessors. N. Y. Sun.

Ho Wonder People Die.
Is it to be wondered at that the com
mon people of India are weak and un
healthy? ." Accounts say that in sea
sons when it is peculiarly scarce they
drink the very water they have been
bathing- in; and that they inherit the
practice from generations of fore
fathers. In many country districts
there are 800 of them to the square
mile all living on what little rice they
can produce on their miniature farms,
little wonder that they die by thou
sands, even when famine is not pres
ent; that all the minor diseases, cs well
as King Cholera, find them a good feed
ing ground. The gospel of hygiene
should go along with every messenger
of light.that is sent there. Everywhere.
Vegetarian Dreaa. -
The members of the Women's Vege
tarian union in London have a new
craze. It is for vegetarian dress. They
have concluded that it is as wrong to
kill animals for clothes as for food.
They want vegetable boots, vegetable
gloves, vegetable gowns, and? even veg
etable note paper. They have decided
that the kid, the calf and the sheep
shall be spared, if their influence can
do it, , " " """..',
In Many Respects They Are Doing:
Better Work Than the Larger,
There are a few striking facts about
the small American college, writes Ed
vard W. Bok in Ladies' Home Journal.
One striking fact is that 60 per cent,
of the brainiest Americana who have
risen to prominence, audi success are
graduates of colleges whose names are
scarcely known outside of their own
states. .It is a fact, also, that during the
past ten years the majority of the new
and best methods -of learning have
emanated from the smaller colleges,
and have been adopted later by. the
larger ones. Because a college happens
to be unknown 200 miles from the place
of its location does not always mean
. that the college is not -worthy of wider
repute. The fact cannot be disputed
that the most direct teaching, and
necessarily the teaching most produc
tive of good results, is being done in
the smaller American colleges. The
names of these colleges may not be fa
miliar to the majority of people, but
that makes them none the less worthy
places of learning. - The larger colleges
are -unquestionably good But there
are smaller colleges just as good-, and,
in some respects, better. " Some of the
finest educators we have are attached
to the faculties of the smaller institu
tions of learning. Young girls or
young men who are Being educated at
one of the smaller colleges need never
feel that the fact of the college being a
small oneplaces themata disadvantage
in comparison with therfriend or com
panion who has been sent to- a larger
and better-known college. It is not the
college; it is the student- , . .
Southern Forests Disappearing.
In Georgia, Florida, Alabama and
other southern states the grand old for
ests of pine are rapidly disappearing.
The destroyers seem to have no thought
for the future. They take no steps to
replace that which they take away.
The influence of forests upon rainfall,
moisture and seasons is pretty well
understood. The point has about been
reached at which it is necessary 'that
something should be done to put a stop
to forest destruction. If stops to that'
end arc not taken it will not be a great
while before this section will suffer a
succession of droughts, floods and severe
storms. There should be some way of
preserving the forests for the general
good. Our people are selling their birth
right for 'a mess of pottage. It is well
enough that lands should be cleared up
for settlement, but millions of acres of
forests are disappearing every year, and
very little is coming in to compensate
for the loss. Savannah News. - ,
