The Chinese, on the Pacific coast,
can now, in case Of necessity, appeal
to q higher tribunal than that Of Cal
ifornia, under the new treaty between
the Governments Of the United States
and China. 1t is time that the barbar-
Gus laws of that State against the Chi
nese should terminate, and they are
practically wiped out by Mr.. Burlin-
games compact. Among other things
recognized by the two Governments, is
the right of voluntary emigration Of
citizens from one country to the other,
for curiosity, trade or permanent resi-
dence, and the right to change "home
and allegiance The treaty also pro-
vides that "Chinese subjects visiting
or residing in the Ueited States shall
enjoy the same privileges, immunities,
and exemptions in respect to travel or
residence as may there be enjoyed by
the citizens or subjects of the most
favored nation ; but nothing herein
contained shall be held to confer nat
~uralization upon the citizens of the
United States in China, nor upon the
subjects of China in the United States"
This treaty is an advance in civiliza-
ton, and the sooner California recog-
nizcs morally, as we'll as theoretically,
the wisdom of its provisions, the
more honorable place she will be GER
tain to occupy in the eyes of the world.

A Youyd WOMAN Becomes RAv1N

A YouNG WOMAN BECOMES RAvING
MANIAC TIRoUGu FMauT.-A gentle
man from Sparta, Tennessee, gives us
the particulars Of q sad affair which
occurred In that part Of the country
last week. At one Of those periodical
masuueradings for which the rural dis
tricts are celebrated. tho subject, OF
ghosts and spiritual visitations was
discussed ut great length, and with all
that exaggeration and high coloring
which usually attaches to any theme
in which the supernatural plays a part.
When the party broke up n of the
young men of the neighborhood con-
ceived the idea Of frightening two OF
the ladies, who had some distance to
go along a lonely road with their
brother. Wrapping himself in a sheet
from head to foot, he took short path,
and emerged upon the trio from q
copse of bushes, just as they came up.
As tho figure in white became visible,
moving slowly toward them. the trio
set up the most horrible shrieks, and
fled down the path in the utmost ter
ror. One of the ladies swooned and
fell to the ground, while the other
reached the house with reason un-
seated, a raying Misunderstanding

Ord AVID NEW NEWspAfnRs.

The Increasing difficulty In starting
newspapers and making them live ia a
fact obvious to all, but its causes are
less understood. The immense ex-
pense of slch undertakings and the diff
ficulty Of combining the right kind Of
talent, financial, managing and edito-
rial, to insure success, are only a part
of the story. Some of the element
usually left out of consideration are
well put by the New York Journal Of
Commerce, as follows:
The most promising fields of first
class daily newspapers being already
occupied, no new journal can command
a great success, except by taking away
some subscribers from other papers.
This is a very difficult thing to do. 1t
never can be done except In cases
where the paper to be supplanted wan
tonly and pcrsistently neglects the
Interests or abuses the confidence OF its
subscribers. So long as 1t pmrsues q
lust. honorable and judicious course,
meeting the wants Of its customers In
all or most respects, the ties Of friend
ship between the subscribers and the
paper are as hard to break by any out
side third party as the links which
bind old friends in business or social
life. Occasional defects and errors, If
such there be, in a newspaper, are
overlooked by those who have become
attached to it through its daily perusal
for years. They may sometimes be-
come dissatisfied with it or account OF
something which has slipped into Its
columns, and may stop taking it; but
the absence of the familiar sheet at
their house or office for a few days be-
comes an insupportable deprivation,
and they hasten to take it again, and
possibly to apologize for having
stopped it. This we believe to be
common experience in the history OF
all established newspapers. No friend
ship on earth Is more constant than
that contracted by the reader for a
journal which makes an honest and
earnest effort to merit his continued
support.
