Richmond, Lad been searched by the
father in person, aided by the police.
The daughter in clcrkly disguise then
explained, as best as she could between
sobs,l and it was "the old story told
again" She had loved and seen her
love thwarted by parental opposition
the most relentless and unfeeling. Her
lover, youthful as she, being also op-
posed by parents, left home soon after,
and came to Richmond, where he was
not long in obtaining employment; A
secret correspondence was opened be-
tween the two, aided by other parties
This lasted for some time, and strength
ened the cord of affection, drawing the
twain nearer each other, though separa-

miles of cruel space. At last in one OF

heart had taken, she, by artfnl stories
of the treatment at home, iufased into
him a manly spirit, and he,hold boy,

|. There are in California sixty.two
thousand Chinese, nearly all are en-
rolled in six clubs. corresponding to tile
six districts from which the emisrants
come. On the arrival Of an emigrant
ship, agents from the clubs take charge
of those who have come from the dis
tricts represented by their companies.
At the club house the emigrant is board
ed and lodged at small cost until he
has obtained employment. Should he
be out Of work at any time afterwards
he is permitted to return, and should
he be sick, lodging is provided for him.
In case of INDECENT, sick or disabled, the
clubs, if they should not be provided
for by private contributions, find lodg-
ings, pay doctors bills, and in cases
where it is necessary for the patients to
return to China, dcfray the cost Of their
passage. The name of every member
is inscribed in a book kept for the pur-
pose, and to prevent the absconding Of
deiaulting debtors, all persons propo-
sing to return to China are bound to
report their intention to the committee
of the club, who only allow them to de.
part when they are satisfied that in do
ing so they will leave no just claim un-
settled. In most of the club houses
room Or partof room is setapart for the
worship of spirits Of deceased members.
There an altar is erected, on which arc
placed the offerings of friends aud reh-'

TRUE TO LIFE.-The Georgia COL
respondent of the New York Times,
photographs certain parties in Georgia,
after this fafhion:
The fact is, and it is as we'll to ad-
init it frankly, the enterprising indi-
viduals called "carpet-baggers," who
lead the Radical party in Georgia, are
not as scrupulous as they might be,
and it would not be too rank injustice
to say of them that they are leetlc
more selfish than patriotic, and that if
trouble pays better than peace they
would very generally prefer trouble.

B:suop DAv,s.--We learn from the

Episcopal Bishop of this State, preaeaed
in St. James Church in that CITY, on
Sunday morning last The Jovrnul, in
speaking O. the sermon Of this vcner-
able Father in Israel, says: "The SER
mon was exceedingly ar. inventive and
very learned in its character, and was
,sp cially adapted to the occasion, the
first Sunday in Advent. 1t was dellv-
cred by the venerable Bishop from his
chair, his feeble health rendering tim
possible ior him to stand so long. His
voice, though evidently weakened from
age and suffering, has in it at times
something of the power Of youth The
town of his nativity feels her pulse beat
warm with affection and pride at the
sight of so eminent a son and so dis
tin.uished Father in the Church.

When reviewing the causes of these distressing
complaints it is most painful to contemplate the at
attendant evils consequent upon them. 1t is but sim
pie justice to the subject to enumerate few of the
many additional causes which largely affect the
lite, health, and happiness woman in all classes OF
society, and which, consequently affect more or less
directly, the welfare OF the entire human family. The
mania that exists for precocious education and
riage, causes the years that nature designated fol
corporeal development to be wasted and perverted
in the restraints ofdress, the early confinement OF
| school, and especially in the unhealthy excitement
of the ball room. Thus. with the body half clothed
and the mind unduly excited by pleasure, perverting
