THAT CHINESE TREATY The Dem
ocrats misreFresent the late Chinese
treaty by saying that it admits Chinese
children to our Common Schools. Here
is the section, which is very plain, viz
Art. 7. Citizens of the United States shall
enjoy all the privileges of public educational
institutions, under the control Of the Gov
eminent of China, and rcciprocalIy Chinese
subjects shall enjoy all the privileges OF the
public educational institutions under the con-
troll OF the Government Of the United States,
which are enjoyed in the respective countries
5v the citizens or subjects Of the most favor
ed nations. The citizens Of the United States
may freely establish and maintain schools
within the Empire of China, at those places
where foreigners are by treaty permitted TO
reside, and reciprocally Chinese subjects may
enjoy the same privileges and immunities in
the United States.
The meaning of the article is evident.
The military and naval schools are the
only ones under the control of the Gov
ernment, and those alone the Govern
ment has the right TO open to Chinese
or ANYBODY else.

We make the following extract from
a letter written by Grace Greenwood
and published in the London Star of the
Goth ultimo;
lately met our probable next President,
General Grant, in an informal way, at the
studio of an artist. who was modelling bus,

ton, lady of extraordinary genius, has exc
cuted the only fine bust Of Mr.. Lincoln we
have. It has lately been purchased by Con
greSS for the Capitol. | wish there were a
higher endorsement of its artistic merit. But
art is Slow where society is fast. There be
many who find the character Of Mr.. Grant a
battling and impenetrable mystery-who
imagine something Jesuitically dark ard sub
tie in his iuperturbable quietude and rcti-
cence-in the impressive face, from which all
merely curious looks glance off. There be
Others who. seeing nothing but the remark
able simplicity and straighttorwarGHess OF
the man, pronounce him commonplace and
shallow. | remember bay Of Lake Huron,
of which the water was so crystal clear, SO
utterly translucent, that it seemed to me |
could, by reaching my arm over the side of
the boat, clutch the shining pebbles at the
bottom yet they were some fifty feet beyond
nv reach. Sill there is something in a first
meeting with General Grant that strikes one
a5ack-in the steady, infexible, steel-bue
eye-in the strong, reticent mouth-in the
Gaelic jaw, firmly, but not fercely set-in
the Undesirable air of self possession and
self-Teliance that envelopes the man-some-
thing as far possible removed from pre-
tension or hIHelU', but more ehectual de-
fence than either could be. He is a small
man, who never is guilty of the disastrous
mistake OF seeking to make the most Of HIM

SEYMOUR MONEY SCAKCE.-A few days
since, while the well known proprietor Of
one Of our principal hotels WAS in Wood
land, he succeeded in making bets to the
amount of - $50 that Grant would receive
the electoral vote OF California. Twenty per
cent. of the money was put up, the balance
to be made good by the 10Th of October.
When he came away he left money with
friend, authorizing him to take any similar
bets that might be offered. Receiving word
from this friend that there was prospect,
if talk amounted to anything, of obtaining
wagers to considerable amount, :. Bonn
face went over to Woodland Thursday
with coin sufficient to accommodate the
Democratic residents Of that place and vi
cinity to the tune of $4,000. He re-
turned yesterday, reporting that he could
not get chance to put up dollar. 1t ap-
pears useless for Union men to look for
even bets on the State Z; it has become too
evident that Grant is master Of the situa-
tion.-Sdc. JHiOil.
1t is as we'll known here as need be that
the Democracy have given up the fight in
California. The only sort of bet that can
be got out Of them is by naming a majority
one must name a good round number,
even at that, to induce them to put up"

REPUBLICAN FRosELTTEs AT RESo.-
Says the Crescent of the 81 inst: The blind
Democracy declare their inability to see the
effects of the great tidal wave Of public
opinion that is sweeping them to destruc-
ton, and often calls on US to name one
man that has deserted the rotten p!anks Of
their sinking craft. For manifest reasons it
is not always best to call names but on
Tuesday last we witnessed a change OF base
on the part of our friend William BOYLE that
was at once interesting to Republicans, in
struetiye to Democrats and credltabie to
himself. In the presence OF several persons
he paid over the amount due the Democratic
Club of which he acas member, requested
that his name might be stricken from the
roll and declared his intention of voting for
Grant and Colfax. We assure our Demo-
cratic friends that he is only one of a vast
III multitude who have gotten the victory over
the beast of Democracy, and over his image.

Who Shall it he.

/ 1t is evidentt that the Democratic par
ty Is in quandary to find suitable
candidate to run for the Presidency.
Their aim will be to run soldier, with
the view Of polling large number OF
. the soldiers votes, and the copperheads
of Kansas, which is the right wing OF
the party, are strongly urging Genera,
Sherman. Clubs favoring this move
ment are being organized throughout
that state, but the effort will not be met
with favor by Vallandigham, Dean and
Brick Pomeroy, the leaders of the par
ty. Sherman's march to the sea and
his subsequent career has rendered him
unpopular among the people of the
south and large portion of the party
in the North. Hancock is making
some bold strikes for the nomination,
but his record before his base apostacy
in New Orleans has ruined all his fond
expectations. lass I'd Ns'n.R aaaes
Pendleton would undoubtedly be the
choice of the party if soldier. Who
shall it be is now grave question with
the democracy. H. .h.aae.~2

Substantially that, in the opinion of the
Senate, the reasons presented by the
President in his report are not such as
warranted his action, and Therefore do
not constitute a cause for the removal
of Mr.. Stanton. -''
Several leading Republican members

will agree to the report by decided

President will be notified that his prop.

agreed to, and 1T will then be Mr.. Stan.

The establishment of State Reform
School for Juvenile offenders has been
under consideration for months past,
and it Is generally considered u necessi-
ty demanded by our rapid increase in
population. Many of the most promi-
nent men of the State favor it and
earnestly desire that school of this
character be established. An institu-
tion of this kind will be Of immense
good in saving the young from utter
ruin. A boy between the ages OF
twelve and sixteen years will rarely
ever reform by serving out term of
sentence in the County jail. -
The, subject will be brought before
the Legislature during the coming ses-

The War Department has received a
letter from Breckenridge County, Ken
lucky, giving an account of most
horrible outrage attempted upon the
inmates and friend of one of the lar
gest colored schools in that country.
1t appears that the teacher proposed TO
have an exhibition on Christmas Eve.
She was warned that it could not be
permitted, but refused to believe that
he rebels would carry their threats
into execution, and went on with her
preparations .The exhibition was final
ly held in one of the colored churches,
which was packed with the friends of
the school and children. Within a
few minutes after exercises closed
hut not till the, people had lef.-the
church was blown tn pieces by the ex-
plosion Of a keg of powder. which
had been placed under the platform on
which the children were seated, and
probably fired with slow match. An
explosion during the exhibition would
have destroyed the whole crowd ".7.

Phe MANNER In which Andrew john
son Mas slidwn his utter disregard Of
the Recohstrdctiont Acts of Congress,
renders it . necessity for flaf body to
make the law more definite, Ii the de-
feat or Reconstruction IN the South Is
to be avoided. The President acts ur-
on his construction of the law ms IL
now stands, and appoints and removes
at his own bidding, the District COM
manders, whereas the intent of the law
was to give the power of appointing
commanders of Military Districts to
the General ef the Army. The Chica-
go tribune on this subject says: 4.
Congress owes IL as a duty to the
country, and especially to the loyal
people, white and black, i'm the rebel
States, who have In good faith taken
part In the work Of feconstruction, that
the law shall be'ubheid; that the mill
tary commanders shall not defeat the
constitutions, nor hand over the States
TO rebel rule again. This ig No time to
abandon reconstruction, and II amounts
to an abandonment of IL to surrender
hh poWCh w pio-StdNCtyt IhtubuOub
Executive and his followers. There is
little difference between Hancock and
Heron, or Voorhees,, or Monroe. He
will defeat the constitution just as
earnestly as would either of these ex-
rebels. Congress-, therefore, should
now, and with as little delay ms posi-
BILE, put into the form of q statue, the
original purpose of the Reconstruction
law, giving to the General of the Army
full revisory power over all acts of the
District Commanders, acting in execu-
ton of the Reconstruction acts. Had
that been the law, the removal of Pope
and Sickles and Sheridan would have
been barren AZ political operations.
Their successors would be subordinate
to Grant, and Grant will execute the
law, and, as far as his power goes, COM
pei its execution by those under his
control. The importance of early ac-
ton on this subject Ii evident Justice
to Grant himself requires that the law
which he is expected to execute shall
elothe him with the power necessary to
control the action of his subordinates.
Every days delay in this matter, is so
much time given to the President TO
defeat the whele work of reconstruction
"a result which the people will not ex-
cuse or forget, but for which they will
hold Congress responsible" err
