Two City Incidents.
From the Philadelphia Ledger.l


An intelligent and beautiful boy Of
three or four years of age was supposed
to be in charge of his father The child's
clothing showed that he had mother
who spared no pains in dressing him.
He was evidently the pride of her heart
and eyes; aud his father, perhaps, 80
far as the sentiment of affection goes,
loved him as we'll Bat mere "senti-
ment" costs nothing, and when it is not
accompanied with something more sub
stantial, wo are inclined to visit it with
the ebjurgation Of the old gentlemaR in
the comedy. The mothers love resulted
in actual benefit. The fathers affection
only persuaded him to take out the child
for walk-and that, perhaps, unwilling
ly.
But as they walked the father was
tempted to turn aside, and he did. He
could not keep out of his old haunts,
though he had an innocent child with
him The child resented rather than
received the compliments of loungers,
aud was amazed at what he saw and
heard but could not understand. Pres
emily, when they essayed to return home,
and reached the street, the father found
himself completely helpless and useless,
and the child, crying as if his little heart
would break, vsinly attempted to lead or
draw the wretched sot along II was all
a mystery to the little fellow, and yet he
seemed to know that he ought to be
ashamed to call for help. A good-natured
policeman stepped up at last, and led the
drunken father toward his home. But for
the child he would have gone to the
lookup.
This is one of our two incidents. New
for the other. Two young girls were
walking together. They were modest,
pretty, well-behsved, but still in very
cheerful spirits, as glance would show.
They were sisters, aud were full OF dis
cussion about some of the matters which
interest young people. Evidently they
were of the class of folks by whom holi-
day is as much appreciated as it was by
Charles Lamb and his sister. Suddenly,
amid their glee, an intoxicated man shot
toward them, moving with that giddy
impulse which cannot be controlled. He
just avoided running them down. Stag
gering back to make drunken apology,
he recognized in them his own two dsugh-
ters. Sick at heart they hurried, almost
ran away, and left their drunken father to
be cared for by his friends" What
else could they have done2 These "two
incidents need no words TO point their
moral

Chief Justice Chase.

Reviewing the result of the late elec-
tions in Ohio and Pennsylvania, and the
causes which led to the defeat OF PsDdle-
ton and Packer, the New York Herald
says:
Chief Justice Chase is the man and the
only man for the Democracy in the next
battle. His name as the Democratic
candidate will at once extinguish all
those obnoxious copperhead ideas so re-
pulsive to the great Union party of the
war. The lines which have thus divided
the two parties since the war will be
wiped out. The Democracy will become
a new party, on new men, new ideas, and
new issues. 10 the nomination of Chase
it will advance from the graveyard Of
dead politicians and parties in the rear
to the front line of the marching column
of events. The name and the record of
Chase, too, on the nigg:r, on reconstruc-
ton, on our foreign relations and on the
money question, will be enough as the
platform of this new Democratic party.
His name will attract thousands of Union
men in the North who would shrink from
anything tainted with copperheadism an
tecedents or reputation, and it will rally
to the Democratic standard thousands of
Republican niggers in the South. No
msu will be afraid of any attempt to put
4he Government on the back track, or
the niger or the public credit under the
rslying cry OF Chase. All such fears,
which have hung as dead weights upon
the Democracy so long, will be removed,
and With Chase as their standsrd-besr
they will be strong as giant refreshed
with new wine.

Let the fairest star be selected, like a
beauteous island in the vast aud shore
less sea in the szure heavens, as the
future home Of the criminals of eartb,
and let them possess whatever they most
love, and all that is possible for God TO
bestow; let them be endowed with un-
dying bodies, and With minds which shall
ever retain their intellectual powers; |;
let no Savior ever press his claim upon
them, no God reveal himself to them,
no Sabbath ever dawn upon them, no
saint ever live among them, no prayer
ever be heard within their borders but
let society exist there forever, smitten
only by the leprosy Of hatred to God,
and with utter seifishness as its all per-
vading and eternal purpose--theD, as
sure as the law of righteousness exists,
on which rests the throne Of God and
the government of the universe, sscie-
ty so constituted must work out for itself
a hell Of solitary and bitter suffering, to
which there is no limit except the ca
pacity Of a finite nature Alasl the
spirit that is without love for its God or
it's neighbor, is already possessed By q
power which must at last create for its
own self-torment a worm that will never

chinese coming ana Goiug.

From the N. Y. Commercial Advertiser.l
Carl Schurz has recently written an
interesting paper on the Chinese, which
we End translated in the St Louis Repub-
lican. He says that the Chinese come
here to make money, and that they all go
back eventually to their own land. They
are returning all the time. This explains
the fact that the aggregate OF all the
Chinese in the United States barely ex-
ceeds 10000, while there has been a
strong and uninterrupted Chinese immi-
grafton since the occupation of California
by the Americans. Up to 1852, 1924
Chinese had arrived at San Francisco.
In 1854 there landed upward of Is 5000.
From 1852 until 1868 the aggregate
Chinese immigration was SO, 402. From
1864 to 1868 only l6 098 arrived, during
which period even a greater number had
returned to China. Since the first OF
January, 1869, upward of ll,OOO have
arrived; the immigration being on the
increase again. The aggregate of the
Chinese immigrants during the last
twenty years is 10000. or about 5000
per annum. Probably 1000 returned
every year, so that the rem aiming surplus
immigration Of the Chinese, when COM
pared with the aggregate of the popula-
ton of the United States, is excessively
insignificant. Osly 1866 females were
among the whole number of Chinese i'm
migrants during these twenty years.
They invariably belong to the lowest
classes, a sufficient evidence that the
Chinese do not intend to settle perma-
nently in this country. The wealthier
men, Only in the rarest cases, bring their
wives along, aud even almost all have re-
turned to China, because they did not
like it here We therefore need not
trouble ourselves about the deluge from
China.

Convndrums from salt Lake. .

Here in Utah, where the social relations
are established on the barn yard primer
ples of ofmatrimony, we have relationships,
both of affinity and consanguinity, that
are not laid down by Blackstone nor any
other author; we therefore ask few
questions upon the subject, and respect
fully ask answers from our Eastern
friends.
Ifa man marries two sisters at one
wedding, and has children by both ofthem,
what relation are the children to each
other? Also, in such cases, is aot their
mother also their aunt; and il so, could
they not be said to he born without a
mother, being the offspriDgs Of their
aunts2 :.
2.Ifa man marries two OF his own
uieces (sisters) at one time, and has chill
dren by both sf them, what relation are
these children to each other, and what IS
the blood relation they bear to their
father and mother respectively
3. If a man msrnes his son widow,
who ia a daughter (by former husband)
of one of his own wives, and has children
bv both of them, aud then dies-and if
then one of his own sons by some other
wife married both these widows, and has
children BY both Of them, what relation
are all these children to each other, one
and ell, severslly and individually, and
what is the combined relationship, both
of affinity and consanguinity of these
children, and their parents, aunts, unclss
and grandmothers respectively
Before entering upon the solution OF
these questions. il might be better for the
student TO first fix upon the consanguin-
iiy existing between the specsled puiiet
aud the red rooster.-Sdt Lake Repor-

The Chinese of San Francisco are a
very singular set of beings. Almost
daily something new and curious turns
up about them. In their quarters where
they reside they are seldom idle, but are
always to be seen making slippers, boots,
clothing, cigars, cutting up pork, pack
ing, cooking, smoking. They take an
ordinary room and put floor through its
center-makiug two stories Of it--one
above the other. Eleven Cinnamon will
make cigars in a room six feet by ten.
They sell hogs weighing l50 pounds each,
roasted whole. Pork is their principal
article of animal food. They eat every
thing of the creature, inside and out, and
his boofs, too. At their theaiers the
women sit BY themselves in the galleries,
smoke cigars, and nurse babies. The
male auditors, the actors, and musicians,
all smoke necessarily. The orchestra
consists of gongs, cymbsls, parchments
stretched across sticks, half globe drums,
and steel triangles.

Important Works on the Danube.

AmpoItuut WOTAs Ou tuc Duhupcs
The works directed by the European commission
OF the Danube are being carried on actively under
the surveillance OF the delegates. According to the
from Isacktchia in Bulgaria TO the sea are 70 remain
Tree frOm all constructions servltude or obligations
whatever. From that branch 200 cuDlc fathoms OF
gravel and stones have already been dredged. ana
there s reason to believe that the complaints OF the
European commission VIII lead to the re-estab-
llshment OF the navigation on that part OF the
river and place that material at the disposal OF
the engineers. The works are besides at present
IN satisfactory state; the st. Georges channel is
through the delta-so called from Its form, appears
likely 10 be terminated In few months, and the
greatest activity prevails IN the port OF Suna. The
system for conveying the earth ashore, employed
when the canal from The port OF Amsterdam to the
North Sea was being constructed, has been adopted
here with great success and the dredging machines
are able to dispense with the use OF lighters The
result Will be q considerable saving OF expense In
cutting through the delta. The navigation Is be-
ary of this year and the 10th Of May not less than
S7S vessels entered the Danube; as 16l were
remaining at the end OF last year, the total
number in the river was l,039 The departures were
much less numerous, and consisted only Of AT ves-
sells OF over 80 tons and twelve OF smaller burden
Consequently 500 were still left When that result Is
compared with the returns previous to the work OF
the commission, the influence OF that undertaking
on the state OF the commercial and maritime affairs
offered to vessels having developed the transit in
large measure. To mention only the port OF Sulina,
there at present lying there slxtytree vessels.

Trade in the Zoilverein.

In the year 1868 the state of trade in the whole ter
ritOry OF the Zollveren contrasted favorably with
1857 and this more particularly the case with
gard TO Berlin. In the past year, indeed, confidence
had not quite returned, but there was marked I'm.
provement In most branches OF business The trade
10 rye and wheat did not attain its usual dimen-
sions, but on the other hand hour barley and oats
were sold IN increased quantities. The spirit
and expectation SURPRISING those of 1851 by
100000 OF quarts and being 100000 more
than IN 1896. In spirits of wine good business
was also DONE The consumption Of flesh meat IN
Berlin exceeded that Of the preceding year by SIX
and half per cent, and greater quantity OF gro
ceres was used especially IN the second half Of the
year. The consumption OF Berlin beer and other
kinds was remarkable. There were in this CITY
forty-seven breweres at work, besides several new
ones in Of erection In wines OF the Zolverein
there was likewise an Increased consumption, as
well as IN imported bottled wines. The coal trade
was very active. or English Goals 200, 900 centners
more than IN the previous year were consumed, In
consequence, no doubt Of the nigh prices OF Upper
Silesian Goals during the past year, arising partly
from very brisk expectation to Austria and partly
from Increased activity in the Silesian iron trade.
Business was more lively In iron and metals. In the
first six months OF the year there were large transac
tons in rapeseed oil in consequence OF extensive
speculation In this article in Paris and Hamburg.
The use Of petroleum in lamps has increased about
fifty per cent, and the trade In llnseed oil, palm Oil
and other commodities OF that class exceeded that Of
1867. The wool business alone showed falling OF,
and prices still continue TO sink in consequence OF
impOrtatiOns from abroad.
