U.mam's Rights in California.

A northern California paper tells this
story of lonely bachelor in that region,
bearing perlinently on the threatened
revolution ON the rights of women: a
few days ago an emigrant wagon from
Oregon came along and camped near our
friends place. The head of the family
soon made himself acquainted with the
proprietor of the premises, and asked
him why he didn't get woman to
keep house for him. The answer was
that he intended to marry just as soon
as a woman willing to enter into the
bonds of matrimony could be found. The
Oregonian remarked that he could find
him partner ifhe would take her. The
bachelor said that was right into his
hands, and the enigrant invited him
to his camp.
Oregonian called up bouncing damsel
of about twenty years, and formed her
that the gentleman accompanying him
was on 1.-THE marry" and willing to
take her for better or for worse. The
damsel, delighted with the prospect:
advanced, and Selling our friend by the
hand, assured him that she was glad to
meet him, and was rea.y to marry him,
at the drop of hat while the old lady
fastened up and congratulated her
"darter" on her good luck. Surprised
and alarmed at the serious turn matters
had taken, our friend, who is constuti-
tionally opposed to the institution, of
matrimony, endeavored to explain, by
saying he was only joking and did not
want to marry, At this the Oregonian
became highly indignant, end the

THE VECTORY or OXFORD.


The Harvard crew have made their gallant
| fight and have been beaten. 1t is sore dis
appointment to us at home for whatever may
have been the doubts of their friends a few
weeks ago, the rapid improvement in the time
| and the style of the crew after they once got
we'll to work on the Thames. gave us all some
of their own plucky confidence, and led us TO
believe that the day of the race would bring
forth qualities in our young cOuntrymens work
which they had not fully developed before.
Yet while it was q disappointment we can
hardly say that the news of yester-
day afternoon was a surprise. 1t could
not be forgotten that the art which
at Oxford is based upon the. accumu-
lated experience of generations, at Harvard is
almost an acquisition of yesterday. Neither
could it be forgotten against what fearful odds
the American crew went into the contest.
Pulling in strange waters, with strange Or
ganizatOn, in strange climate, against men
who were perfectly at home and know every
inch of the course by heart; pulling too,
against the very finest crew that England had
ever put into a boat, it was nothing short of
desperate encounter into which they had
thrown themselves, and their success would
have been little less than marvellous. THE
TRIBUNE warned its readers beforehand that
Oxford had brought the art of rowing to point
of perfection of which our own universities had
a very inadequate idea; and for doing so we
were abused as "unpatriOtic." 1t is not unpa-
triotic, however, to tell the truth, and it was
only justice to the public as well as to the Har-
ward crew to say exactly what we knew to be
the fact, and let all parties stand prepared for
the result
If we have been beaten, however, we have the
consolation of coming out Of the battle with a
glory that is better than laurels Oxford made
remarkably good time, as well as we can
judge from the imperfect accounts which
have reached us by telegraph, yet the race was
so close that Harvard lost by only sic seconds,
or four lengths. Thus it was closer than the
race between Oxford and Cambridge of this
year, and much closer than any of the English
university races for the last nine years, except
those of 1867 and 1868. For the first mile and
a half of the course says our correspondent,
the race was splendid" one, and all through
| the Americans showed a magnificent pluck
which deserved victory, and will doubtless be
duly hOnored by their English hosts But they
did not show the same extraordinary staying
power as their competitors, nor, we should
judge, the same self possession and
logged regularity at their work. Accustomed
to rowing on the still waters of a lake, with
no superauous weight in the boat, and with
eight oars, it is not surprising that they mis-
calculated their strength against the current of
a river, with reduced crew, and the dead
weight of cOxswain to carry beside They
trusted apparently to dash rather than en-
durance. and when the time came for

TILE CHINESE TROUBLE.

Wa nubIisb this morning some highly inter-
estino axtracts from our Chinese files, which
will throw light upon the report or the reJec-
ton of Mr.. Burlingames treaty, though they
still leave the matter in some DOUBT. III
il has been rejected. we think 1t Will
occur to everybody, after reading these
documents, that Mr.. j. Ross Browne is in
great measure responsible for that misfortune.
He has made no secret of his dislike Of the
measure, akd seems seems to have been in hearty
accord with the British and American trading
community, who attacked it with such zeal
and lack of success while the En-
bassy was in England. Last November Mr.
Browne addressed communication to Prince
Kung, the regent and actual head OF the gov
eminent, urging him in tone which Is not
much short of menace to "place upon record
"a substantial guarantee of his disposition TO
"make forward movement" slgnlh-
cantly remarking more than once
in the course of his letter that
culture misunderstanding might be pre-
"yentedn by his doing 80. Mr.. Browne re-
oured the removal of restrictions upon trade
with the interior and the introduction OF rail-
WAYS, steamboats,, and other engines of mate
rial progress. The Burlingame treaty stipu-
lated that China should take her own way
and time of establishing these improve
ments; but Mr.. Browne gave Prince
Kung to understand that the outside nations
were in q hurry, "and would not be likely to
"leave the work of the present generation to
"posterityr This certainly was plain hint
that the United States had no intention
of regarding the treaty with much
respect but whatever doubt the regent
may have still entertained was prob
ably removed by Mr.. Brownies published
correspondence with the English and Ameri-
can merchants. in which he plainly says that
we have no business to regard China az an
equal or to profess an intention not
to interfere with her domestic affairs. We
venture to say that if the treaty has been re-
jected-which, however we still doubt-it is on
tho suspicion of bad faith. which such Ian
guage on the part of the American Minister
would be certain TO awaken.
