THE CHINEsE.-Bayard Taylor, the
we'll known traveller, thus speaks of the
Chinese 1t is my deliberate opinion that
the Chinese are morally the most debased
people on the face of the earth. Forms of
vice which in other countries are barely
named, are in China so common that they
excite no comment among the natives
They constitute the surface level, and be-
low them are deeps on deeps of depravity,
so shocking and horrible that their char
acter cannot even be limited. There are
some dark shadows in human nature
which we naturally shrink from penetrat-
ing, and made no attempt to collect in
formation of this kind; but there were
enough in the things which I could not
avoid seeing and hearing which are
brought almost daily to the notice of every
foreign resident-to inspire me with a
powerful aversion to the Chinese race
Their touch is pollution, and as the opin-
ion may seem, justice to our own race
demands that they should not be allowed
to settle ON our soil.

EbRIVATE Medical and Surgical Institute
Il DR.. l.. J. Czapkay returns his sincere
thanks to his numerous patients for their pat
ronage, and would take this opportunity to re-
mind them that he continues to consult at his
Institute for the cure of all forms of Private
Diseases, such as Syphilis, GonorrhGa,
Nocturnal Emissions, and all the conse-
quences of self-abuse In the first stages
of Syphiitic or Gonorrheal Diseases he guar
antees q cure in a few days, without in
convenience to the patient or hindrance to
his business. When patient, by neglect
or improper treatment, has developed the Sec
ondary symptoms of Syphilis, such as buboes
or painful swellings on the groins, or ulcers
in the throat and nose, which, if not checked,
destroy the soft parts and cause the bones to
mortify, separate, and come away, leaving the
sufferer an object hideous to behold or when
he has painful swellings upon the bones, or
when his constitution is injured so as to pre-
dispose to consumption, or other constitu-
tional disease, the Doctor guarantees a cure or
asks no compensation.
In RHEUMATISM, chronic or acute in
DYSENTERY or DIARRlIGA, he has safe
and effectual remedies For the treatment of
the consequences of self-abuse, such as noe
turnal emissions, nervousness, timidity, head
ache, pains in the back and limbs, with gen.
cral weakness, loss Of appetite, loss of memo
ry, injury to the sight restlessness confusion
of ideas, dislike for society, and feeling of
WEAKNESS of life with the nervous system SO
excitabe that slight noises shock or startle
the patient, making his existence miserable.
For the above maladies the Doctor will guar
autee cure or ask no compensation. He can
be consulted free of charge, and invites all to
call, as it will cost them nothing, and may be
much to their advantage. His offices are at

ThankfuIneSS is the Incentive to Gratitude,
GER TIF TIE,

The undersigned desirous of acquainting
those who may be unfortunate enough to be
similarly afflicted where permanent relief f
their suffcrings may be obtained, feels it his
duty to thus publicly express his most sincere
gratitude to DR.. L. j. Czapkay for the perma-
nent recovery of his health. Borne down by
the distressing symptoms incident to the Wis
cous practice of uncomfortable passion in
youth; depressed in body and mind, unable to
perform even the most trining duty imposed
upon the daily avocations of life, | sought the
advice of many physicians, who at first
garded my disease as of trihng Importance
but, alas after Il few weeks, and in several
instances months, of their treatment, ! found
to my unutterable horror, that instead of re-
lief, my symptoms became more alarming in
their torture and being told by one, that nv
disease, being principally confined to the brain
medicines would be of little consequence, |
dcspaired OF ever regaining my health, strength
ana energy and, as last resort, and with
but faint hope, called upon DR.. Czapkay
VINO, after examining my case, prescribed some
medicine which almost instantly relieved me
OF the dull pain and dizziness in my head
Encouraged by this result | resolved to place
myself Immediately under his care, and by
strict obedience to all his directions and ad-
vice, my head became clear my ideas collected
the constant pain in my back and groins, the
weakness of my limbs, the nervous reaction of
my whole body on the slightest alarm or ex-
citement; the misanthropy and evil forebo-
dings the self-dstrust and want of confidence
in others; the incapability to study, and want
of resolution; the frightful, exciting, and at all
times pleasurable dreams at night, followed
by involuntary discharges, have all disap-
peared; and, in fact, in two months after hay-
ing consulted the Doctor, felt as if inspired
by new life-that life which, but short
time ago, contemplated 10 end by my own
hand.
With a view to guard the unfortunate from
falling into the snares of incompetent quacks, |
deem it my duty to offer this testimony to
the merit and skill of DR.. Czapkay, and rec
ommend him to all who may stand in need of
medical advice, being assured by my own ex-
perience, that once under his care a radical |
and permanent cure will be effected.

Report Of the Judiciary Committee

MIR. SPEAKER The Committee on the Tn.
dietary, to whom was referred the claim of p
r. Marshall, have had the same under consid-
eration, and respectfully ask leave to report
as follows: epoi
ihe record dlscloses, that, at the general
electlon held on the 3rd day of September
1901, an election was held for Sheriff of Gala
Veras county, Marshall claimed to be elected
nut w. ID. Nelson received the certificate OF
Tue 0iefk. A contest ensued Marshall contin-
uing to discharge the duties of Sheriff Pend
ing tne contest, the people refused to pay taxes;
ana the Legislature, on the 18th day of April,
1907, passed an act appointing A. B. Laforge
collector OF Taxes for said county. Section Is,
OF article L, of the Constitution, provides that
Assessors and Collectors of town, county and
State taxes, shall be elected by the qualified
electors of the district, county or town in
which the property taxed for State, county or
town purposes is situated"
The Act of the Legislature, of April 26th,
1852, is clearly unconstitutional. The pre-
sumption of law is, that Marshall knew it. He
should either have enjoined Laforge from COL
lecting the taxes or treated his acts as a null
lity, and have proceeded to collect the taxes
himself, in the manner prescribed by law. At
the June term Of the District Court held in
and for Calaveras county, in the year 1852,
the jury found q verdict in favor of Marshall,
in words as follows
@ The jury in the case of the Sberiffaltv of
Calaveras county find that Benz F. Marshall
was legally elected to the Office of Sheriff.
Judgment was entered in accordance with the
verdict
The committee do not feel called upon to go
behind the verdict of the jury for the reason
that the record is not before them Moreover
the verdict does not change the rule of law or
strengthen the equity of Marshall's claim. as
against the State.
The Legislature on the 18th day of Nav,
1854, passed an act for the relief of Marshall
in the sum of S8, 825. This act was passed on
the eve of adjournment. The Governor with
held his signature, and thereby failed to be-
come law. The committee cannot see the
justice OF this act of the Legislature, but fully
Justify the action of the Executive.
The affidavit of Laforge shows that he col
lected (under the provisions Of the act of
April 28th, 1882 the sum of S77 ,523. 90; and
that he received as commissions for collecting
the same the sum of $1l,9500O Marshall's
right of action, to recover the amount of COM
missions, existed against Laforge, until he
(MarshalD was deprived of his remedy by op-
Grafton of the statue of Limitation. He cannot
plead his own laches in support of his claim.
The committee are of the opinion that Mar
shall has no demand against the State, either
IN law or equity; and therefore report his
claim, with accompanying documents, back to
the Assembly, and recommend that the same
be rejected. A. G. STAKES, Chairman.
