Ar the recent Masonic celebration in Win
chester, Va, the apron worn by the orator,
William II. Trayers, formerly belonged to
General George Washington, and was pre-
sented to him by General Lafayette, and has
beautifully wrought in silver and gold the
flags of France and the United States com.
bined, and forms by their combination the
principal Masonic emblems.
A number of the French residents in New
York have organized co operative associa
ton, which for several weeks past has sold
bread TO its members by exact weight, at the
rate OF eight cents per pound for FIRST quality,
and proportlonate price for lower grades,
a large number Of members have already
been enrolled, and additional subseriptions
are coming in. The conductors are fully az.
sured Of the success of the enterprise, and
have already determined to extend their field
of operation by furnishing meats, groceries
and all other articles OF family consumption.
The Alta California tells the following
story. All Chung, as his maine imports, Is
a native of the Flowery Kingdom. He is an
artist Of no mean distinction. He has been,
n gfT TT,1tE,,~.,s,.
and is so well pleased with Mclean man.
that he wants to become an adopted brother.
Accordingly he, this morning, applied TO
Judge Hoffman to be made a citizen. The
question as to his eligibility is a novel one.
All free white male citizens, of the age Of
tweuty-one years and upwards are certainly
eligible. But whether the Mongolian race
can justly claim to be classed with white cti.
zens is a controyerted point. Judge Hoffman
set counsel to work to study the Civil Rights
bill, and the law bearing on the case.
A KNoT of South Caroline planters talking
about General Sickless late orders, one asked
why not appeal to the president. Another
said he did sound the President about it at
Raleigh, but all the answer Johnson gave was
that his hands were tied. He coald do moth
ing to check these military gentlemen without
making more trouble for himself and for as
all. ! tell you, they have got him perfectly
cowed. See how tender footed he was in his
speech at Releigh That Chicago triP. has

is to him. He looks strong, but his spine is
injured -
TnE Californians have not waited for the
hosting Of the American flag in Russian
America but have already dispatched the
steamship 0rihamme from San Francisco,
with passengers for New Arcbangel and Sitka.
Another steamer Will succeed her in two
months, and it is expected that By the time
Of her arrival our Government viii have for
mally taken possession Of the new territory.
The pioneers viii at once begin to ''recon-
struet all the institutions industries aud
interests Of the country and its inhabitants.
Before the sammeris over they win have ex
plored the summit of Mount ST. Elias, nayi-
gated the Knitchpek for at least a thousand
miles, and scratched the whole surface Of the
territory in search Of gold. Secretary Sew
ard will have to hurry up his part of the work.
and the Government had better at once en-
force definite rules iu regard to the proprie
torship OF the soil, so that future compiled
tons may be prevented.
