Hon. J. W. CLAP, in a speech before
the Memphis Chinese Convention, said
the Southern planters wanted laborers
whom they could control. The Caucas-
sian is not suitable for them, because
he wants and will get piece Of ground
of his own. We quote Mr.. Clapp:
The men Of the South wish to retain
their landed possessions and cultivate
them themselves, and to be able to feel,
when they look at their fields, that
they are monarchs of all they survey.

CLERICAL ANECDOTE. - The Rev.

eccentric manners, sometimes called the
''wild man. was very popular in West
ern Virginia some twenty years ago.
He was cross-eyed and wiry made, and
very dark skinned for white man. At

ways cxcitable, and occasionally eXtrav-
agant. He once accompanied Il brother
minister, Rev. Mr.. r., a prominent pas
tor, on visit to a colored church. Mr..
X. gave the colored preacher the hint.
and, of course, Clawson was invited to
preach. He did so, and, during the SER
mon, set the impulsive Africans to shout
ing all over the house. This, in turn,
set Clawson to eXtravagant words and
actions, and he leaped out of the pulp
like Il deer, and began 10 shake the hands

y few months ago Il beautiful young
glrl came unattended to this place from one
OF the eastern cities, and. assuming the
name of Helen Gray, obtained board
ing place-a highly respectable boarding
place. Such good people were they
there that every day they had family
prayers, and read in the book Of books
how Jesus loved the POOREST sinners, and
had compassion even on the adultrous
woman. Well, Helen Gray attracted
attention, no less by her sadness than
her beauty, and very soon her tears be-
trayed her guilty secret, t,-the old, sad
story,-bcuayed, deserted. And, of
course, it was not to be expected that IA
respectable house could he contaminated
10y the vile creature, and the matron,
bristling all over with icy virtue, bade the
degraded creature 90; and, with her
face covered, and her heart so full of
grief it seemded as though it would burst,
poor Helen went away. And, when af-
ter awhile Il little, helpless waif, nestled
III her bosom, and she, poor girl, felt all
the tender Joys of motherhood, which even
the trail feel was in "a Catholic charata-

IMPORTANT ENGINEERING IMPROVE
NfNr-C Cast iron tubes for wafer or gas
are now made in England by turning of
one end couically and boring out the
ends of the tubes to which it is to be fit
ted at the same angle, so that the end OF
one tube may be inserted into the other
without the addition of the ordinary ce-
ment. The junction is effected very
quickly. and the joint is perfectly tight
Pipes thirty-six inches in diameter nave
been perfectly joined in this way. LlV-
erpool has about ninety miles OF gas
pipe with this joint, and the leakage Is
said to be much less than in the other
cities.
