The Workman understands that of the several Chinese who have been engaged in business in this city for a number of yean, not one has been sick enough at any time to call in a doctor or to purchase any kind of drugs from the stores. Now what can be the secret of this immunity from disease t It should be considered in the first place that these men are foreigners, and would require to be acclimated on coming into our community. There are two things which an American would always insist upon as essential to health which perhaps are not found in connection with these foreigners. These are airy rooms and cleanliness. This being the case we must look elsewhere to find the secret of exemption from disease. Without being able to make a close scrutiny we venture to say that their good health is due to their diet It is almost certain that the secret lies here. . And if this be so, does it not prove that the cause of sickness is not climatic or malarial ? Now if these foreigners do not con tract sickness in our climate, our own people who are native to the soil need not be sick. Is not this conclusion logical ? Now if a foreigner can come here and escape disease altogether, it not only shows that disease is not necessarily resultants from climatic causes, but that our own people would escape in the same way by living in the same' manner as to diet ' We had occasion to remark some time ago on the" eoufratliction of the prrrailjn hyjtcnw'Aliifoiiic .. iu '.Ui uiyYrjiitfJhukwnniftjr bers of peisons whose habits of living wctc in direct contravention of all the accepted principles ot r.ea'.th- persons who ate . with impun.ty the various species of fruits and melons, some of them in a green state and others in a state of decay, the subjects at the same time violating all the accepted laws as to ventilation and cleanliness. And the question is still open for debate. Now we have the question relating to the heathen Chinese, who come and beat us at our own game.

A special to the Atlanta Journal, dated the 30th, says that Rev. Sara Jones, the noted revivalist and lecturer, was rotten-egged in Houston, Texas, during one of his lectures. The lights were put out and a great number of eggs were thrown, many of which hit ladies. The liehts were asrain liehted and Mr. Jones proceeded with his lec tute, but seeing that the ladies were very much excited, he brought his lecture to a close. It is said the trouble gTe w out ol the fact that several months ago Sam Jones wu in Houston and stired up the town, gambling houses were closed and the Sunday laws were enforced. This made the friends of these mad and the egging was the outcome.
