The Ironton Register says: A very large

The Ripley Bee of last week says: In
the jury trial before Esquire McCague, on
last Thursday. of Mrs Clinton Johns vs.
Mr. Springer, damages claimed for selling
liquor to her husband, the jury returned

appealed.
The jackson Standard of last week says:
Mrs. Pickens, wife of Sam Pickens, has
brought suit against James Knighton and
Wash. Thaclcr for $1,000 each, for selling
Intoxicating liquor to her husband.
The Wilmington Republican of last week
says: I'D. Moon, agent for Farmers Man
ufacturing Company. informs us G. W. Goo
ley, Postmasterat New Holland and Justice
of the Peace. has just entered upon his thir-
tieth year as Justice Of the Peace, and is on
ly fifty-six years of age. He was elected
just after he was twenty-one years old as a
Constable, and served five years, when he
was elected Justice, and has served con-
tinuously ever since. Who can beat that
for office holding?
Our neighbors of Clinton County are es
tablishing monthly stock sales at Whining
= ton. The object is worthy. The first at
tempt at holding sales was week ago las
Saturday, and we are pleased to learn tina
it was a success. The Republican says Their
was in attendance much larger crowd thai
the most sanguine had anticipated. 1t wa
variously estimated from three to five hun
dred people were present during the tim
e of sale, from 1 to P. NJ. All agree the frs
sale was success, and we believe each sue
ceeding sale will be AZ improvement on it
predecessor. These sales will not only
: a benefit to the managers, but to the tow
and county, and we urge our people to Civ
J. them every encouragement.

House seems to be to stand on its dignity and
not to allow that great body, the Senate, to
trench upon its rights. The tendency is and
has been perhaps since the foundation of the
government for the Senate to assume to itself
extraordinary powers, much in the same way
that the House of Lords used to, only that the
Senate has outstripped its ancient model, and
is real, living body, while the House of
Peers is little more than figure head.
Night before last Governor Ito, Assistant
Finance Minister of Japan, and formerly
Governor Of one of the japanese provinces,
remarkably intelligent young man of only
% years, arrived in this city, direct from his
native country, via San Francisco and Chi
cago. He and his suit, consisting of over
twenty orientals, enjoyed the luxuries of
Pullman Palace car across the continent, and
are said to have marvelled greatly at what
they saw. 1t must have seemed to them an
immense and almost boundless country, hem
med in as is their little empire by the sea.

form stature, have black hair and eyes, and
several wear mustaches. They are sent here
by the Emperor of Japan to study our bank
ing system in particular, and the Treasury
Department generally, with the intention it
is said of assisting their government in estab-
fishing paper currency and national banks in
Japan.
Yesterday they paid their respects first to
the President and Cabinet, and afterwards to
Secretary Boutwell, and the ladies of other
high officials at their receptions. To-day they
have visited the Treasury. Department, where
they seemed to take great interest in the pro-
cess of manufacturing greenbacks. Governor
Ito is now going to set himself down to hard
work in studying our whole financial system,
the Treasury Department, and the National
Banks, in which the Secretary of the Treasu-
ry will assist him by furnishing the various
reports and documents necessary, and COM
petent clerks to explain everything which re-
quires explanation. They stop at the Airing
ton House, where they are creating furore.
But l must close this hasty sketch, fearing
it has already been spun out too long.

Alsace and Lorraine, to be ceded to Ger
many by France are very valuable provinces.
Alsace comprises the departments of Haul
and Bias Rhin, with 1926 square miles, and
about 100000 of population. 1t adjoins
Germany from Switzerland to Belgium, and
holds the valley of the Rhine to the foot of the
Vosges. Lorraine, comprising the depart
ments of the Vesges, Meurthe, Moselle and
Mouse, has about 90i4 square miles, and ~
100000 population. Passing the Vosges
mountains it includessthe territory intermedi-
ate to that chain Of the Ceyennes known as
the Cote dor Thus Germany takes 1859
square miles absolutely from eastern France,
and ends the enduring dispute about natural
boundaries and the frontier of the Rhine al
most from its fountains and all the tributaries
of its left bank.

John w. Forney, in his Anecdotes of Pub

sagacity of Stephen A. Douglas by bit of
personal experience. In 1853, Mr.. Douglas,
pointing to the map, said to Mr.. Forney !:
GLOW would you like to buy share in SUI
perior City, at Fond du Lac, the head of Lake
SUPERIOR" Mr.. Forney replied that.he had
no money, but Mr.. Douglas was SO much in
earnest and SO sure of the profits of the in
vestment, that Mr.. +. was induced to borrow
$4,000 and buy share in the prospective city.
He divided this share equally with friend,
at Mr.. Douglass request. eater cutting
my half-share into five parts,'' says Mr.. For
ney, 81 sold and gave three-fifths to other
friends, and, with my two-fifths, bought the
Waverley House, in Washington. The pro.

City realized S2l 200. For that was in
debted to Stephen A. Douglas-God bless

Special LEGISLATION.

The unjust and even ridiculous way in
which the Californians hamper the freedom of
the Chinese population with oppressive statutes
applying exclusively to the yellow-skins,
would be astounding were it not for the fact
that less than score of years ago the legis-
lative power of the whole country, in Demo
cratic hands, was directed in precisely the
same cowardly way against the negro, simply
because he was black and friendless and poor.
1t seems impossible to teach some men the
simple truth that no honest laborer. however
low in the social or intellectual scale, can be
oppressed and put at needless disadvantage
without detriment to the interests of the whole
community. And so the Democrats of the
Pacific slope, like their eastern brothers few
years ago, are devising all manner of enact
ments to impress it upon the Chinaman that
thu Almighty intended him for slave and a
| foot ball for men who would be white if they
were washed, and to prevent his ingenuity
and industry from overturning this purpose OF
the Almighty.
As might be expected, these special statutes
| are sometimes a little faulty in their English.
good example is furnished by one aimed at
| the Chinamans custom of carrying two baskets
| suspended from the ends OF wooden yoke.
The San Francisco Council ordained that ''No
person shall carry basket, or baskets. upon
any sidewalk suspended from or attached to
poles, across or upon the shoulders" When
| the first case under this ordinance came up,
the council for the accused brought the case
to a sudden termination by simply saying
MAY it please the Court, my client hasn't
been carrying sidewalk suspended from OF
attached to poles" The Judge caught a
glimpse of the point and said he would think
about it.
But the best satire on the foolish and I'M
manly attempts to crush down the long
fering Celestial is furnished by Mr.. Hender-
shott, a member of the Oregon Legislature,
who introduced into that body the following
bill:
| SECTION l. No Chinaman shall be allowed
to die in this State until he has paid $40 for a
| new pair of boots with which to kick the
bucket.
SEC. 2. Any Chinaman dying under this
| act shall be buried six feet under ground.
SEC. 3. Any Chinaman who attempts to
dig up another Chinaman's bones shall first
procure license from the Secretary of the
State, for which he shall pay 81.
SEC. A. Any dead Chinaman who attempts
to dig up his own bones, without giving due
notice to the Secretary of State, shall be fined
500.
SEC. j. Any Chinaman who shall be born
without bones, for the purpose of willfully
and feloniously evading the provisions of this
act, shall be fined $780, Concord Statesman.
