DEArHoF A RELIGIEUsE. -Thereligious
sisterhood in this city viii regret to learn
that Sister Matilda Coskery died lately
at st. .Joseph's 5, near Emmettsburg, Mary
land. The Baltimore Minor says Of her:
During a long period of time Sister
Matilda discharged faithfully, in a variety
of capacities and in many different
places, the dates of her sacred calling,
her first post being, If we mistake not,
Mt. st. harys College, Maryland. As
early as 1884, if not before that year
she, together with Sisters Olympia, DC
tavia and Ursula, took charge Of the
patients at the Maryland Hospital Of
this city. She was aflerward Sister Ser
yant at Mt. st. Vincent's Hospital, Balti-
more, and at Mount Hope; also at Medi-
cal Hospital, in Richmond, Virginia; the
Orphan Asylum at Norfolk; at Roches-
ter, New York; and various other places.
During the civil war she ministered at
various places to the sick and wounded.
For some years past she has been at the
Mother House, ST. Joseph's, near En-
mettsburg. where a portion Of her duiies
consisted in relieving the wants Of the
poor and sick for several miles around
st. yOsephs' ?

mass meetings now beia= held in the
leading cities OF the North and West
JOINS Ecosonl.
Their wants being few, their expenses
are nothing compared with the native
workmen, and even at The small rate
of wages granted them, they Will be able
to lay by small sum weekly. They
care nothing for the country, except so
far as it furnishes them with an oppor-
tunity to accumulate money. The Chi
namans only ambition, when in this
country, is to save the comparatively
small sum that he considers fortune,
and return to the flowery land to die.
He has no aspirations to become an
American citizen.
And this is the pig-tail race to be in
troduced as laborers in the South. Eel
lows with no aspirations to become citi-
zens and enjoy the privileges of the bal
lot-box. As bad as Sambo may be, he is
thousand times better than pig-tailed
John; besides, five ever intend TO les
sen taxes and become prosperous, we
must procure white population in pre-
ference to all others.

ODD News. The Nashville Banner
furnishes this scrap Of odd news: The
murder near Memphis the other day Of
one young Democratic politician fur
nishes significant commentary upon
the intense partisan spirit Which has
seemed ever to have ragged with greater
violence in Tennessee than IN any other
State" The Banner Is certainly ahead
of us, as we have heard nothing Of the
murder" Of one young Democratic
politician by another near this place.
