THE CHINESE QUESTION.

On our sixth page will be found letter from
Hon. William d. Kelley to the Recording
Secretary of the Science Council of the Order
of United American Mechanics, which we
commend to the attentive perusal of our
readers as an able and impartial statement of
the Chinese question. Hitherto the interest
in this question has been almost entirely con-
fined to the Pacific coast; but it was not diff
cult for any one who thoughtfully considered
the matter few years ago to foresee that the
advent of hordes of Chinese to our shores
would, in very short time, cause complications
of a most serious character, and that the
Mongolian would succeed the African as the
yexing figure in our national politics. The
trouble has commenced almost sooner than
was expected, and with the completion of the
Pacific Railroad we find ourselves confronted
by the Chinese question, and called upon to
decide it according to the principles of JUS
tice, humanity, and liberty 1t is not credit
able that some of the prominent public men
who have achieved whatever reputation they
possess as the advocates of the rights of the
negroes, should endeavor to shirk the respon-
sibility OF meeting the Chinese question fairly
and boldly for fear of exciting local preju-
dices. When such men as Charles Sumner.
Henry Wilson, Benjamin f. Butler, and
Wendell Phillips, who have been in the front
ranks as negro emancipationists, turn their
backs upon the Chinese for fear of falling into
the bad graces of the New England mschanics,
we begin to doubt whether they ever had
any very deep regard for the welfare of the
African.
The Chinese question, unlike the slavery
question, is not confined to any particular
section of the country, and there is accord
ingly demanded for its proper solution can
did, impartial, and npreiudiced consideration

Hon. HENRY JOHNSON, of Lycoming, has
been nominated as the Republican candidate
for State Senator in the Lycoming, Union,
and Snyder district, after protracted con-
test. Each county presented a candidate
and adhered to him through many ballots.
On the final ballot Mr.. johnson received five
votes to four for Colonel A. G. Simpson, of
Snyder MIR. johnson has served one term
in the Senate, having been elected in 1861,
and has ability and experience in his favor.
The Democrats have twice carried the dis
trict in the face of 500 Republican majority,
first electing Judge Walls over Mr.. Shreiner,
and next electing the present Senator, Beck,
over MIR. Wingert. The general debauchery
of the Republican leaders of the district, and
the struggles of candidates for United States
Senator, have hitherto sacrificed the district;
and may do SO again. 1t is very clear that
the district will not elect any man who can be
controlled by the ring of political despe-
radoes who have so long been specializing at
Harrisburg at the cost of the Republican
party. The people will inquire whether Mr..
johnson is clean-handed. 1t is worthy of
notice that the conferen CO made no declara.
ton in favor of reform.

A CABLE TELEGRAM from Berlin states that
the advance columns of the Prussian army
have reached point west of Chalons, while
a despatch from Paris substantially confirms
this report by saying that the invaders are
near Sezanne. close approach to the capt.
tai has thus been effected without opposition
from MacNIahon, and the real intentions of
the French commanders can only be conjec-
tured. 1t seems probable that they will
temporarily trust the defense of Paris to her
Notifications, holding themselves in readiness
to march to her rescue, or to attack
the flank or rear of the invaders whenever a
favorable opportunity may be presented. A
policy similar to that we have indicated was
practised with disastrous effect by the Rus
SLAMS against the French after the first Napo-
leon had marched to Moscow, and it is pos
sible that the bitter lessons learned in a
fearful defeat encountered when France was
acting as an invader may now furnish in
struction for defensive campaign.

rs 1T CRUELTY OR KINDNESS, /,

FoR many reasons we have doubted the tele-
graphic announcement, made few days
since, that DIR. Gihon Qate private secretary
to Governor Geary) had been appointed to
succeed Robert Garseed, deceased, as Quar-
an inc Master at the Lazaretto. Those inte-
rested in the amiable Doctor and his bellige-
rent friend have felt much surprised and
astonished at this move on the political
chessboard. They very naturally inquire
what is to become of the Topic, recently
ushered into life at Harrisburg, and that
lives, breathes, and has its being in the en-
ergy and presence of the aforesaid DIR. Gihon |?
How can it survive at the State capital and
the Doctor live at Tinicum?
1t seems impossible. AS well expect luscious
fruit and fragrant flower while darkness
shrouded the GLORIOUS king of day." Why
should the Doctor, therefore, turn his
back upon this young and tender thing
of his own planting, TO accept so
uninviting a position? 1t is all a
mystery. His predecessor at the Quarau-
tine grounds paid with life his devotion to
duty. Does he long for martyrdom t?
Has the base ingratitude of "men in high
places" driven him to this desperate resolve 2
No! mol The Doctor goes because the Gov
ern0r ''marshals him the way" But here

There is considerable excitement in financial
circles to-day owing 10 supposed influences at
market with view to a regular September panic.
There is some ground for the rumor, aud If car
ried out successfully it may cause serious disturb
ance both in financial and commercial circles.
Under these circumstances it behooyes the mex
perienced to be cautious in their speculations.
Money is gettingscarce, and the banks are having
as much business as they can attend to. Rates

THE four-column- and -a-half cable tele-
gram descriptive of the battle of Gravelotte
which the New York Tribune published yes
terday morning was specimen of journalistic
enterprise that has never been equalled. The
accounts of the battle were most graphic and
will be read with interest all overthe country.
Thus far the Tribune has easily surpassed all
its rivals in the fullness and reliability of its
war news.

The proposition for an armlstice

facilitate elections, was instantly rejected
by the Paris government. 1t Is saud that the
advice of influential Americans fastened
the rejection. Gambetta left Paris ex-

threatened to suspend relations if further
obstacles were thrown in the way of the de-
parture. This produced the desired effect
and the parties were allowed to depart.
