China and the Chinese.

A new work on China and the Chinese,
says the Madison Journal, by the Rev.
JOuN l.. MENUS, has recently appeared.
1t says that not only did printing, gun
powder and the magnetic nee,lle play an
important part in their world before they
dawned on Europe, but the philosoI her 5
stone was sought for in China before the
people of the West began to dream of it :;
and among them planche,te and Spiritual
ism were played out ages ago, though they
are just now beginning TO excite the brains
of US slow occidentals, It would be inter>
esting if hIr. NEyiUs had given US the
theory on which the Chinese account for
the last mentioned phenomena, but that be
neglects to do The statement that 'the
only member Of the human race who has
attained to universal fame was Chinese, :"
is somewhat startling, but ii is true The
philosophers and heroes of the West are
not generally known to the people Of East>
erD Asia, but the name of CoNFUCIUs is
familiar as household word in both hem
isE Eheres.
Ia return for the ridicula Ririch we are
accustomed to heap on them, the author
tells US Of the estimate in which the Chi
ne>e have learned to hold US
They enjoy great deal OF pleasantly at
our expense, and laugh at our short-esopped
hair. our tight-ftting, ungr ceful and uncom-
fortahle-ooking clothes. our thin-soled leather
boots, tall, stiff hats the wasp-like appear
ance Of Western ladies' with their small waists
and large hoops; our ungraceiul manners, our
ignorance cf the general rules Of propriety,
and the strange custom Of men and women
walking together in public arm-in-arm."
But they have graver charges to bring
against US than these errors of taste.
They think that they have evidence that
We are inferior to them in intellectually, in
refinement, in civilization and especially in
morals" Thus all people ere made con-
tent through seIf-complaoency.

The New Railroad Law.

The railway bill that has now be
come law in Ohio permits compa-
nies in this State to do just as they
please in leasing or selling, or other
wise bargaining with companies in
other States, and in aiding the con-
struction of new lines in other States,
provided that vote of the stock
holders shall be taken on such pro
posed contracts, and provided that
said bargains shall the better enable
the railways to carry out the purpose
of their creation. We don't know as
there is any objection to the policy.

they hold the balance of power.
Some inquirers, who have made out
lists, think that if the Senate is full
the vote will be tie On the question
of repeal. Others count two msjori-

against repeal. Several Senators
wanted to sit it out and get vote
