PURSUIT OF A FILLIBUsTER steamer
Continental, which arrived at San Francisco on
18th, from Mazatlan, brought full particulars
of the pursuit of the filbustering steamer For
ward, by the United States steamer Mohican.
After leaving Guaymas the Forward, and two
sailing vessels in tow, proceeded to Chivola, in
tne south San Bias district, and the Forward
'nen proceeded forty miles up the river. The
aathorities at Mazatlan with the American con-
sui engaged Mr.. Towe of the II. 8. steamer
Mohlcan, to pursue the Forward He consent.
Gu anu after cruising Tor some time, the Mohic-
an proceeded to San Bias, thence to C,b;b;ca
and kthere ascertained the whereabouts of tho
Forward. The Mohican reached the mopt,, or
the river, June 26, and Capt. Towe sent an CIV
petition of six boats and sixty men up the riv.
er to cut.out the fillibuster, and the Forwards
boat refusing to stop the commander of the
Mohican gave orders to fire upon it, which was
promptly obeyed. At the same moment tho
Mexcans on the river bank, opened a heavy
fire from battery of five twelve Founders,
supported by infantry. Ensign Wainwright
and the coxswain of one of the Mohican's boats
were killed. The expedition captured and de-
stroyed the Forward, and took the following
prisoners: George Holding, LIST officer; James
Lee, ID officer; e. ii. johnson, engineer; three
seamen. The expedition retreated down the
river under running fire from the bank, but
with no further casualties. The wounded
prisoners were taken on board the steamer and
carefully tended. The Mohican returned i'm
mediate to Mazatlan, and the prisoners were

THE question of supplying school books at
public expense engaged discussions at the
State Teachers Convention in Illinois. In
one of the essays it was stated that the State
of Illinois, in 1868, expended on schools the
sumof $6,S96,S79, of which $5,15O,e79 was
raised by special district tax. The number OF
pupils in Illinois, in 1868, was 706,7SO, and
statistics show that each pupil pays about an
average of $3.50 for school books. This
would add to the tax above mentioned the
sum of 81 ,060, 10 for school books.
The superintendent of schools in BLOOMING
ington said the average cost of books per p1l.
pill in that city was, $1.9O while he believed
they could be furnished at public expense for
60 cents pupil. The arguments in the neg.
alive are not given in the report of the pro-
ceedIngs but one of them would be the dam
ger that the books would not be properly
cared for when the user ceases to feel that
they were his own. Notwithstanding this
difficulty public opinion, seems to be nro.
crossing toward the adoption of the svste,n of
supplying school book at public expense

have not been able to sympathize with the
Crispin movement and general labor move
ment against the Chinese. In Massachusetts,
the talk has been of violence and even OF
murder against them, and that in conventions
as if they have no right to be. Why is this !?
Because they sell their labor cheap.
1t is not little curiousthat the persons who
talk in that way, of protection to their own
interests-the selling of labor-are generally
opposed to the protection of American indus
try in general, as a matter of national inter.
est
Let us see exactly how this question stands.
The Crispins, and others like them, resist vio-
lently the advent of Chinese laborers, because
they work cheap, because they undersell the
labor market, and can well afford to do So.
Suppose the Chinese should bring into the
country shoes of best quality at half the pres.
ent price, and could make a living profit at
that-or hats, cloths, furniture, and all other
articles of domestic need, flour, sugar, meat,
at the same low prices, who would be justif-
ed in making clamor about it? Could the
grocers, flour dealers, and other tradesmen
stand up before the country and declare that
no one should, under penalty of murder, buy
any of these goods, and that no one should
deal in them, but that theirparticular interests
only should be consulted, and that present
high prices should be maintained? Yet that
is precisely the position of those who clamor
against the cheap labor of the Chinese.

Strength evaporates fast at this season. This is
especially the case with all who live by the sweat of
Their brow. From every pore OF the sieve.liko skin
moisture exudes which contains the elements of
vitality Thereby the blood is impoverished, the
nerves relaxed the muscles weakened, the digestion
impaired, the bowels disturbed, and the animal
spirits depressed. The constant drain that produces
these effects cannot be arrested because it due to
the heat of the atmospheric but loss of life sustain
ing elements can be supplied by extra nvigoration
Now therefore, is the time to resort to Hostetters
Stomach Btters, the most powerful and bealthful Of
all vegetable tones. Long experience has proved
that nothing else will efficiently sustain and regulate
the system, when whiting down under the double
pressure of excessive heat, and constant physical
and mental labor. All persons who have been temp
ted to try the local "tonics socalled) which have
been started by sordid speculators in almost every
town and village, with a view of "turning penny"
by the creduity OF the unwary, know this to their
COST It'll wise maxim that says "hold fast to that
which is good" OF the forty millions Of people in
the United States, probably one-fth have tested the
restorative properties of Hostetter's Bitters and

these should be persuaded to experiment with the
worthless nostIums, recommended by unscrupulous

INTERNATIONAL ROWING MATCH AT CALAIS
ME.-The american Boat Victorious. The
Eastern section of the State is jubilant over
the result of the boat race, which has recently
taken place on the st. Crox river between the
four-oared crews of the ST. Stephen, N. B, land
Calais, Me-, rowing clubs. The crews engag-
ed had previously rowed upon the 4th of July
for purse offered by the city of Calais, upon
which occasion the American crew easily won.
With some circumstances connected with that
race the English crew were dissatisfied, and
Immediately challenged the victorious crew to
row them upon the morning of the 9TH over a
three mile course. The challenge was at once
accepted and the stakes deposited. Previous
to the race there was great excitement, and
the betting was heavy, the odds being in favor
of the Calais crew.
at the hour appointed for the race the
wharves on both sides of the river we're crowd

Spain under species of protectorate to Prus-
STA. That such project has been on foot is
unquestionable and it is quite in character
with the instructions giving by England to her
colonial authorities and in keeping with the
willy, astute, far reaching brain of Bsmark,
whose favorite idea has been to make naval
power of Prussia, to which end rich colonial
possession is almost essential. Doubtless this
intrigue has entered likewise into the scheme
