ssThe Heathen Chinee.n

As the elder Weller ono pathetically
remarked 'sHere's a goin The whole
land has been agitated on the Chinese
MrSstion. Gas lights have burned blue
al the SSrowing horrors described to
the faithful oNDemocrate politicians
as about to overwheImour falr shores
in the shape of q Chinese Immigration.
The great A~nglo-Saxon4 Celtic Teus6Gic
race was to be utterly over-slaughed;
and, as for Biddy, her do
nestle hopes were to be narrowed down
to marriage with John Chinaman or
starvation. Yet. those fanatics of the
Hub needless of therest Of the universe,
did undertake to call down the wrath
of the gods, and to import the heather
for household service. Now for the
startling result-the Chinese won't
comel Nj. Palmer, the gentleman who
some time ago advertised his willing
ness to supply Chinese labor, states
this astonishing fact over his own sig
nature. He says, moreover, that the
Chinese continue to regard us as out
side barbarians-"as We regard the
Mooris of New Zealand" among whom
we should not desire to settle In
less numbers than "~colonies OF nifty OF
more. In vain he represented the lux
uries of Boston fsh-balls in private
families: in vain he offered an extra
ration of pork with the balmy bean; in
vain he appealed to personal friendship
with 'Ah Young, q correspondent OF
mine" or pressed pecuniary considers-
tions upon Mr.. Koopmanshap. "The
Chinese, one and al, refuse to go on
Granting these astonishing premises,
there seems to be nothing for 1t but to
give in adhesian to Mr.. Palmer's view,
when he remarks, 81 have always re
garded the Chinese discussion a pre-
mature" This nightmare over, there
is a chance to breathe again.

THE only profession for which there
is not a great suffciency of aspirants is
the ministry. In his address at the
laying of the cornerstone of the Col
lege Church, at Amherst, the Kew. Mr..
Gushing gave some interesting compar-
ative statistics concerningthe New Eng
land colleges, from which it appears
that during half a century the proper
tio1 of preachers produced has fallen of
about one-half. He sets aside the
alumni of the last five years, In order to
allow time for those so desiring to have
entered the ministry, and then gives in
decades the figures for the previous so
years of the eight colleges in New Eng
land founded by Congregationalists,
viz. Amherst, Bowdain, Dartmouth,
Harvard, Middlebury, University of
Vermont, Williams and Yale. From
1915 to 1866 these colleges furnished
16,2 40 graduates, and LOO ministers,
or about 25 per cent. Dividing the so
years into decades, the proportion of
graduates who became ministers de-
creases from So per cent in the second
decade, to Is per cent in the last one.
Amherst has furnished the largest pro-
portion of minister's, 46 per cent, and
Harvard the least, 11per cent.

Ancient Idols.

Chester II Correspondence Of Boston Advertiser.
One morning last week a young fell
low rode INTO this town on horseback,
having Just crossed the river from Mis-
souri,. He had, carefully wrapped up
in his handkerchief, q curious relic,
dug MP the day previous in Perry coun-
ty, Mo. He stopped on the hill to rest
his horse, and the inquisitive crowd
that gathered around soon drew his
story from him, while the relic passed
from hand to hand. 1t seems that
when, after the rebellion, the farmers in
Southern Missouri once more worked
with security and on an an enlarged
scale, the heavy team that passed over
the road near the line of bluffs, q few
miles from the Mississippi, in Perry
county, No., unearthed some human
bonss and an odd looking bottle Of
clay. There is living in Chester an old
gentleman, james NJ. Christian, famil-
iarly called Uncle Jimmy" who has
for years devoted all spare hours to the
study of archaeology. His researches
In this neighborheod have enabled him
10 present many rare specimens of alb
original and other curiosities to the So
cieties of this State, and to collectorsin
the east. The first relic of value was
that found by the young mar above
mentioned. It Is apparently a idol,
or decanter-shaped, like an idol repre-
senting the figure of a nan in a sitting
posture, his hands crossed upon his
breast. It is made of a dark-colored
clay, very hard, and shows no
signs of decay. There is a hole in
the back of the neck, and the figure is
hollow 1t is about n foot high, and
seven or eight inches in diameter. The
same evening the rest of the party, ex-
cepting Christian, returned with s num-
Der of curiosities, including n idol
of larger proportions than the former,
With the hands resting on the knees.
They had, besides, bottles, kettles, pots
and a saucepan, with a handle hollow
ed at the extremity and filed with pei
lets. The larger bottles were shaped
like modern decanters. All were well
executed In clay, s-d showed NJ signs
of age. Considerable excitement was
raised IN the town on this discoveries.

Faith well Fnunded-

In old times, at the commencement Of every season
it was the fashion to take a strong cathartic as a safe.
guard against q change Of temperature. It was q
worse than senseless practice. The people Of ON
day understand the matter better. Instead Of
depicting the system they reinforoe it. In the method
they adopt they exhibit a wise discrimination. In
stead of r~esorting to the vitisted stimulants Of COM
merce, or any Of the compounds derived from them,
they put their faith in the only Absolutely pure
invigorznt procurzble in the market-Hostetteris
Stomach Bitters. Their faith is well founded.
Never has any tonic medicines been prepared with
such conscientious care. tits vegetable compound
Of which every ingredient is sound, wholesome, and
me 6iefnaIin the true sense Of the word. Now, we
have three prominent national complaints. One-half
of the adult population Of the United States suffer
moro or less, either from diseases Of the Stomach,
arrangements Of the liver, or affections of the kid
neys. In no other land under Heaven are these
malAdies so general as in this country, and Hostel
Stomach Bitters is a specific for them al, unless
organic in its origin, and, therefore, beyond cure.
And let those VITO are 1ortunate enough to be exempt
rom thern Of present understand one great fact, viz:
ar occasional use of this WALKING tonic VIII as
