that they have no appetite; thatsthey

that they are growing thin and fee

any mental or physical duty. And
the question is often asked, what

A NEW BRITISH CABINET. The

A New BRITISH CABINET. The
sudden resignation of Disraeli, the
British premier, on finding his party
so signally defeated in the late elee-
tions, necessitates the formation of a
new ministry. He believed the coun-
try would not sanction the measure
for the disesta blishment of the Irish
Church, but finds himself mistaken.
He will now, of course, lead the op-
position in Parliament, and be really
in his proper element, and where his
brilliant talents best shine. Mr..
Gladstone has been summoned by
the Queen to form new ministry,
and the liberals take possession under
the admirable system which prevails
in England of yielding to the popular
will graciously and promptly. Mr..
Collier is to be encouragement, aud
MI. Bright has also been asked to
join the ministry.

A question of great interest to

A question of great interest to
Southern claimants is to be decided
at the approaching term of the
United States Court of Claims in
Washington. The solicitor for the
United States at the last term in
terposed the plea, in reference to the
cotton cases and ali other cases of
captured and abandoned property.
that the rebellion was suppressed on
the first of June, 1865, when Kirby
Smith surrendered; aud as all claim
eHts under the statute must prefer
their claims in the Court of Claims
within two years after the suppress
sion OF the rebellion, all claims pre-
ferred after the first of June, 1867.
must be. dismissed. It is understood
that upon the previous argument,
the court was equally divided-two
to two. The question at the coming
term will be argued before q full
bench of five judges. The decision
may be different, when it is remem-
bered that the late Congressional
action has fixed the date on which
the rebellion was suppressed az the
10th of August, 1866, the date of the
Presidents proclamation of peace.

A New PHASE TO TIE UNIVERSAL.
SUFFRAGE PRoJECT.- Senator Will
liams, of Oregon, sees n very strong
objection to constitutional amend
ment granting universal manhood
suffrage, after the plan proposed by
certain philosophers in New York
and Boston, giving the ballot to all
men, regardless of race and color, and
fixing the naturalization of foreigners
at six months. California and Ore
gon-in fact, the whole Pacific slope
entertain decided aversion to
project of this kind, as it would in n
very short time hand over the con-
troll of that section to the hordes of
Chinese that are daily landing on the
Pacific coast and threatening to be-
come numerically greater than the
present white population. These
people will never amalgamate with
the American element. Their entire
teachings and traditions are anti
Christian, they are wholly ignorant
of Republican ideas, and could never
be made to understand what they
mean. Yet the amendment which it
is contemplated to introduce this
session, would make every Chinaman
after six months residence, legal
lied voter, and, with volume OF
emigration from the Flowery Empire
greater thau that from Great Britain
and Germany combined, it is easy to
conceive the effect upon tho voting
interest of the State of California.
