ANTIPATHY TO CHINAMEN-The crowd ol
Cinnamon who have ilocked TO California and
Australia, to share with the natives of other
countries in their golden riches, meet most
ungracious reception. In California, as orr
readers are aware, they are taxed, robbed, mur.
dered and driven from pillar to post,' in the
most unfeeling manner, and it almost seems TO
be regarded as meritorous for anybody 10 abuse
them They do not appear to fare any better
in Australia. According to the last news from
there, great excitement continued to- reign
among the miners against the Chinamen.-
Severaldneetingshad been held, declaring them
a curseto the country, and bill is before the
Victoria Legislature, which requires. every
Chinaman in the country 10 pay a monthly Ii
cense' Of five dollars The author of the bill
estimated the .uumber of, Chinese in Victoria
at 1884, Of course such tax would drive
them out of the country. In some places the
white miners have driven the Chinese miners
from their claims, beaten them, and otherwise
abused them and the government has been mn.
der the necessity of appointing "proieotors"
fer them.g The. feeling against the poor fe-
lows is said to be constantly gaining strength,
and there ls danger loI an open Outbreak. John

Of The late Rev. DR.. Boynton, was once
dispu:ing with a farmer about the ease with
which a minister earned his money. Now,
said the farmer, when you are called upon to
marry couple, you never expect less sum
than three dollars, and you sometimes get ten
dollars-ths for a few minutes services
i" POOH" replied the doctor, 81 would agree to
give you halt OF my next marriage fee tor
bushel of potatoes" Very WE'LL" said the
farmer. "rll take your offer and send you the
potatoes" few days afterwards, the doctor
was called on to splice loving couple at Dog
town, place about four miles from where he
lived. When the ceremony was over. the
bridegroom said to the worthy minister, Well,
plrson, pose must fork over something for
your trouble. What say you to taking one of
my terrier pups! The best breed, | tell you,
IN the country. Worth full five dollsrs-and
s'pose figure would do for the splice, eh!"
The doctor took the pup with joy. The joke
was too good he hastened to the farmer, say
ing, "Now friend, here is my fee--how shall
we divide it," The farmer reIished the joke
SO well, that he increased the potatoes to half
a dozen bushels.

Original Poe ns .
To the Old and New Year.

Another year will soon be DER,
way-stone passed in lifes short tour;
What record bears it, 'gansl our name,
What deeds Of honor. guilt, or shame!
Many heart has 1t maue glad,
Many one has been too sad,
Some would gladly live again.
That they past errors might reclaim.
To youth. year seems quite an age.
They doubt the wise words of the sage,)
To man 1t seems fleeting day.
1t comes, It's here, then far away.
To those whose days on earth are few,
Who soon must bid this earth adieu, ..
year seems like precious gem,
Each passing one is dear TO Them .......
Farewell old year. It's with sigh, H go
Many moments passed idly by, o.
Thus our old adage is proved right
Blessings brghI'n US they take their flight"
Another year we welcome here,
A year with joys and lies so dear,
New days in which we can repent,
The ones. last year. SO idly spent.
Faces once sad, look even gay.
All greet with joy the New Years day.
Presents flow fast from those most dear,
Friends wish friends "a Happy New Year"
Strive 10 spend the time I'M friends.
So when i'll future men'ry lends
A distant view of days gone by.
You'll not regret what meets the eye.

The present year will soon be gone forever
gone, to visit those years which are past and
can never be recalled. To see the departure
sf this year brings into our minds those changes
which it has wrought--changes that can never
be obliterated. II ends when the Mormon
troubles, the perplexing state in which Kansas
is now in, Nicaragua and the fllbusters, the
money panic in Europe, and host of others
too numerous to mention, are all agitating
the country. 10 fact.we may safely call it a
year of wonders. Men who were rich in '56,
are beggars in '57. The tide of immigration
Is also on the decrease, and we hear of hum
dreds going back to " ould Ireland, or 10 mer-
ry,i England" and to Sunny Italy," which
goes strongly to prove that we are not what
we were two years ego. The working classes
CANT get employment, and in our large cities
beggars are to be found in all directions.-
There must be a change. or else the country
cannot live, and curtsilment should be our
motto, We ought TO look more at home than
We do abroad. Il Our imports are too large, un.
less we get something Of real value in return.
The present year our imports were nearly
double our exports, and consisted mainly in
Wines, Liquors Silks Tobacco and the China
Sugar Cane. which last article is the only sen
sible artiee of1the list. Our country IL im-

SHORT SPEECHEs.-In the English House of
Commons they will not hear a man speak at
length who is not known beforehand to have
something to say. They cheer him down, cough
him down, laugh him down, clap MIN down,
stamp him down, or go down themselves TO
dinner. Long speeches are an abominatiOn.-
So, remarks the Philadelphia Ledger, it will
now become at Washington. A few of the
really great men will make just as many really
great and useful speeches as ever. But the
business of the country is rapidly coming TO be
more transacted by sharp, short pointed deba-
ting speeches, with the quick.witteG retort,
than prosaic oratons. Senators Bgler and
Douglas have illustrated this.
Smyrna times., 1857-12-31

0-F Henry Ward Beecher, in recent lec-
ture at Philadelphia, insisted that learning was
not education. A mau might be able to speak
all the languages in the universe, and at the
same time be a stupid polyglOt as regards the
practical ends OF life. The true idea of educa-
ton is evidently in disciplining every pOaoer
to perform ats functions. Men are not broad
enough, they do not spread out all their branch
es to the air; and they are afraid TO do so. be-
cause they cannot watch the nice propriety and
circumspection of each. The present custom
is to grind men to a sharp edge, forgetting that
all such grinding is at the expense of the sub
stance of the blade.

Doings in Congress.

In the Senate, Tuesday, Mr.. Wilson of Mas
sachusetts, introduced bill TO secure to actua
settlers the alternate sections of land reserved
In grants to various States for railroads, and
Mr.. Johnson, of Tennessee, offered bill grant
ing TO every head of a family who is a citizen
OF the United States, homestead of 160 acres
OF land, on condition of occupancy and cultiva-
| tOn.
| The debate on the Kansas question was re-
fused by Mr.. Fitch, of Indiana, who proceeded
TO take position antagonlstic TO Mr.. Douglas,
and to reflect on him a dsorganizer. Mr..
Douglas replied in his usual able manner.
The various subjects discussed in the Pres-
dens annual message were appropriately re-
terred. Mr.. Stuart gave notice of his inten-
ton to introduce a home valuation bill. He
then took the floor and addressed the Senate
on the subject of Kansas, the Lecompton con-
stltution and the Presidents message. Mr..
Stuart expressed himself hostile TO the adms-
Sion OF Kansas as State, under the Lecompton
Constitution, and concded in the views Of Mr..
Douglas. Mr.. Broderlck took ground boldly
against the national Administration as having
created all the trouble in Kansas, and thought
the people of that territory were remiss in not
haVlng logged and driven away the members
OF the LecOmpton Convention.
In the House of Representatives Thursday
resolution was adopted instructlng the Com
mlltee on Territories to inquire into the expe-
dlency OF Immediately excluding Mr.. Bernhl-
sci, The Utah delegate, from his seat on account
OF the state ofrebellon existing in the territory.
The Senate Treasury note bill, as it came
from the Senate, was adopted without amend
ment, by ayes lis, noes Sc. The House also
passed the Senate joint resolution that the adj
