A Now Sabbatarian Movement, Tho tendency of tho times Is, no doubt, strongly toward n more goncrnl observance of Sunday at n day of rest. Everywhere at tho assembling of church denominations thus far this year, Sunday work, and ooclnlly tho nowspapor, ban been 0enly denounced. In every stato In tho Union, with hardly an exception, Sunday trnde, ami particularly lliiuor selling, Is now forbidden by statute. Ileeently somo of tho great railway linos, led by tho Vnnderbllt system, hnvo stopped tho running, as far as posslblo.of Sunday passen ger nnd freight trains, and now tho Sabbata rian movement Is effecting tho national ad ministration. Postmaster General Wannmnkor Is making an Investigation In reference to Sunday work In iiostofllccs, nnd proxos to havo nil useless lalmr on tlio day of rest conso at once. Fol lowing this announcement comes nnothor of ,ho nbolltlon of Sunday duty In tho regular army, by order of President Harrison. In his order ho refers to tho fact that Washing ton and Lincoln, In tho exciting times of war, saw (It to enjoin tho orderly observance of tho Sabbath by tho army and tho navy, and ho accordingly suggests that soldiers and sail ors nro cutltlcd to a day of rest In Utiles of peace, Tbo American (coplo aro usually too much engrossed In buiiucsa to bo diverted by move-' incuts of this 'nature It Is only whon by tho systematic and determined efforts of a fow loading agitators somo moral or political re form gets uuuor headway that it moves with rapidly accelerating speed.

Frank 'Lesllo's Newspaper. A Much Needed t'ontal Reform, In order that tho peoplo might bo well ed ucated in matters of govorumout, tho early congresses nut porlodicnls at a rato of post ago which Is only ono-quartor of that exacted for book. This curious distinction still ex ists, though tho iwriodlcal Is often hear Icr and mora cumbrous than tho book. Out a copy of ScribnorVi Magazluo will bo sent by tho Unltod States to an outlying postofllco in Washington territory at a quarter part of tho price which n book of tho tamo wolght mid tho samo sIko will bo st-ut for. Tho ro sult lu tho publishing of the country Is ex actly tho saino which might bo seen If a great shoo dealer were boycotted by all tho express companies. If tho express companies said they would carry Joues & Co.1 shoes for a quarter part of tho prlco for which thoy would carry Smith & Co.'s shoes, thoy would say Just what tho general government says wficu It carries tho magazine weighing eight ounces for a Quarter part of tho prlco of a book weighing eight ounce. Of this you boo tho convoiiuonco tho country over. You shall go Into a great western book store nnd you shall sc piles of magazines. You shall turn and ask far books, and you may find not so many books In tho shop as tney receive magaxtues rrom Tho Century office or from Harper's, or from Tbo Cosmo politan, or from The Forum, In a month. This Is very well for Tbo Forum nnd for Tho Century, but It Is very bad for literature; and tho greatest gift which any courageous congressman can givo to tho authors and publU-hers of this country, and still moroto tbo peoplo of tho country, will bo a short amendment to tho present statute which shall direct tho carriago of all books as second class matter Rov.

Thcro aro yet other mora or loss widespread im pressions on this subject, but theso mentioned appear to bo tho most popular ones. It bos recently boeu stated that from tlmo to tlmo careful observations havo been 'mado In hospitals which have resulted In showing that tbo act of death takes place with fairly equal frequency during tho wholo twenty-four hours of tho day. Very recently on Investi gation bos been made In Ports, which showed that thcro was a certain foiling off of the number of deaths botwoen 7 and 11 o'clock In the evening, but that, with this vxocptlou, the proportion of deaths Is about oven.
