THR Secretary of tie Treasury has
instructed the Collector of New Orleans
to keep sharp lookout 10 proven, ves-
sells with Chinese from entering that
port with coolies. He cites an article
in the treaty between the United States
and China, with a circular issued by
Seward, to show thut no such iuvolun-
tary laborers can be allowed to enter
any of our por,s, and that the contracts
made for Chinese must be voluntary
en- the par, of the laborers.

NAIL MATTERS.
From the Reno Crescent.

We recently noticed some irregulari-
ties in the mail service of so gross
character as almost to nullify any ben
eft the public may be supposed TO de-
rive from the vast amoun,s of money
expended in carrying it on. AT tina,
time we invited POstmasters to inform
us of any and all deficiencies in The
service that might occur, for the pur.
| pose of calling attention TO them. B.
F. Small, at Carson states that he re.
ceives daily from twenty to one hun
bred letters in the Carson package tina,
do not belong to that office. We our
self saw one package addressed to Car
son containing letters directed to Gold
Hill, Monitor, Washoe City, Frank
town, Cortez, Lander County, and
Truckee City, California, all of which
came from the cas-, by rail and as be
supposed were put up and directed to
Carson on the mail car. Carson not
being a distributing office has DO bust
ness with any letters not directed to
that place. For some time for the ac-
cOmmodatlon of the people Mr.. Small
made his distributing office, perform.
ing labors not imposed upon him by
law, and for which he is not paid, at
the same time calling the attention of
the P. .. Agent on the cars to the
facts in the case. No attention being
paid TO his notice, and the evil becom-
ing daily greater, be pressed the mat
ter on their attention, to which he re
ceived answer that they acted under
and did not care a d-n
whether it suited him or not, and with
this, to say the least, ungentlemanly
letter, came package directed TO Car
son containing $50 letters belonging 10
different points in California and Ore
gon as last resort the Carson P. |
NJ. returns to the car agent, marked
missent, the fight between Small and
the P. o. Agent on the cars at last de
generated into contest in Billinsgate,
credltable to no one. In the meantime
the people suffer the Inconvenience Of
having their correspondence interrupted
whilst their letters are making tour
of observation through the various Of
fees of this Coast. On Tuesday night
last letters directed to Washoe, Opbir |
and Transform passed through all these
Offices 10 package directed to Carson |
on Wednesday night back through ali
these Offices directed to tae Il. K. Mail
Agent at Reno. We, as a matter of
course, can't say but that this is in nc
,ordance with Instructions from the P.
NJ. General, but we do unhesitatingly
.ay that instructions producing such
results are nonsrnsical and absurd, and
we further say that in our opinion no
such instructions hare ever been given

At the evening service yesterday at the Allen street
Methodist Episcopal church the pastor, Rev. L. 8.
Weed, preached o sermon on "The Millennium The
reverend gentleman read az his text the nrst three
verses OF the twentieth chapter Of the book Of Reve
iations. The whole OF the Apocalypse the preacher
said, was intended TO exhibit the safety OF the
Church OF Christ and the nnal triumph Of the Gospel
Of the son Of God. Like Jacobs vision OF the

standing at the head In oil His glory,
so 81. Johns vision pointed TO the coming

the HOME FOa THE BLIND.

There Is In this city very large number OF persons
who affected with either total or partial blind
ness, who are thereby precluded from obtaining a
livelihood by any other means than at the hand OF
charity. Many OF them exc out beggarly existence
by peddlng shoe strings and other trines In
the market places, or with placards on their
breasts ptifuy invoke the attention Of passers by
with their monotone, 'Piease help the blinds All
the State asylums for the blind reject applicants
who are Upwards OF thirty years Yf age, and for
these there is no provision They shrink from en-
tering the county poor house, and this class OF adult
blind is very large, hence great deal OF suffer-
ing prevails among them, living In the
most nosome cellars and garrets ana feed
ing upon almost any refuse food. They do not
need church specially devoted to them for wor-
ship, but they require physical assistance ana with
view Of rendering them some aid Rev. Eastburn
BENJAMIN established IN April last the Church Of the
Comstock president Of the Citizens's Bank, aud Mr.
George W. I. Lord and 9 number Of eminent gen.
tlemen as vestrymen. The Church has assumed as
its mission the adult blind OF New York and
vicinity, and has begun It's work. IN November

sermon by the Rev. DIR. Below

Sermon by the Rev. DIR. BeII0ws'
The text of the Rev. DR.. Bellows yesterday morn
ing's discourse was taken from the seventyseventh
Psalm, third verse:-I remembered God, and was
troubled,n The reverend gentleman remarked, IN
the opening of his discourse, that he did not believe
the Psamist meant that he was troubled with the
remembrance OF God, but that his mind was over
whelmed with the divine goodness and mercy. Our
sins never look SO hideous as In the light OF Gods
infinite mercy. When angels hid their faces before
their Master how must the repentant sinner, who
feels the light OF Gods love penetrate his heart be
dazzled with the brghtnesss God Is merciful as
well as Just and, therefore, II we bow ourselves In
obedience to His will we may remember Him with
out fear, God Is refuge for all the frail family
ofmankind. He did not hold up the cloudess Image
Of his own perfection TO the gaze or mankind wltn-
out providing means for our rescue from the
hldeous bonds OF sin. The spirit that should have
possession Of those who would approach the divine
presence was not one OF despair. God Is not an
Egyptian taskmaster TO force us to bear burdens too
weighty for oursstrength, but father and friend,
OF his children We should approach Him as
child approaches its father trustingly, believingy
and without fear. No accuser does as much service
love; its gentlest Sigh is louder than the thunder
Love Is law and sin is the fracture Of law. mis-
multiplication table SIN by rectitude and truth.
But as Gods justice Is superior to all law and his

often stood in the ante-room Of our martyred but
not forgotten nor dshonored President when poor
people whose relatives were In trouble called to
appeal to that kindly and benevolent ruler on their
behalf and there he was impressed with the great
mercy Of God; for II In human affairs 1t s blessing

which justice cannot sanction. God Is the friend Of
the miserable, and loves best those who suffer most.

Chi nU IN fhaU yVh a
ocean OF life. Sickness and trouble make God re-
membered, for though pain is an unmitigated evil
1t carries jewel IN Its hideous head.
The reverend gentleman concluded his eloquent
discourse by fervent appeal to the congregation to
prepare for the troubles that would be theirs sooner
or later that they could the dark hour OF their
sorrows remember God.

THE HEBREW CHRISTIANS.

Under the auspices Of the Hebrew Christian Broth
erhood about fifteen Hebrew Christians met last
evening at room No. "a Cooper Institute, and held
religious services. After very fervent prayer had
been pronounced by one Of the audience, during
which he prayed that God might open the eyes Of
she misguided Israeltes' to the true light OF Chris
tianity Mr. Lederer delivered sermon, taking his
text from the eighteenth chapter OF Deuteronomy
where the character OF true prophets Is spoken Of He
then argued at some length to prove that the Hebrews
were In error In believing that the Messiah had not
yet come, and contended that 1t was only necessary
for Hebrew to carefully peruse this chapter OF Deu
teronomy and tnen study the character OF the Sa-
vour to be convinced OF the fact that Jesus Christ
was the long looked for Messiah. At the close OF
the sermon one OF the gentlemen present delivered
short address, drawing an analogy between the
characters OF Christ and Moses to prove more con-
clusvely that Christ was the Messiah, and that he
was the Great Prophet spoken OF when Moses said
"God shall send prophet like me.n

sent was not to tear everything down, like these
men, but to build up. He likened such men as he
had been speaking OF to what Carlyle said or Vol

to speak ON other kindred branches OF his subject
and closed with eloquent appeal to believe in the
Lord Jesus Christ, as the foundation ana ultimate
triumph OF all Christian religion.
