the president, and says, in a feeling voice ::

other delegates shed tears, and twist their
hats in their hands. We have remained
here and joined in your deliberations, but

sued by United States Commissioners
STAIRS for the arrest Of Susan B. An
thony and fourteen other females who
voted at the late election. The parties
will probably be brought into Court
next week. That terrible monster and
tyrant, man, has been the chief plague
OF Susau's existence. He heads her Oh
at every turn. and lastly won't let her
have even the benefit Of the ballot.
She has with the most frlgid, self-sac-
riicing virtue, always set her face
against being married, ever studying
on how not to do It, yet now she Is to
be forcibly brought to court In her old
days. Shame.

IMMIGRATION TO AMERICA.

According to the last quarterly re-
port Of the emigration officers at Liv-
erpool. the number Of people emigrat-
ing from Europe to America Ia not
only immense, but constantly increas-
ing. During the months Of July, Au-
gust and September, ninety-nine ships
lett Liverpool for the United States,
carrying 36,4sl steerage passengers,
and nearly so, 900 In the cabins. Sew
enteen ships LEFT for Canada, carrying
5,607 emlgrants one LEFT for Victoria
aud one for South America. The ag-
gregate number of passengers was 3d.
3s5-of whom the greater proportion
(ls,279l were English, and only 5,l04
Irish. The most notable feature Of
the quarters return Is the sudden &C
ceS, Of Swedes Danes and Germans to
the emigration from Liverpool-no
less than Is, $50 Of the whole number
having been drawn from the Scandi-
navian and German counties, coming
BY way Of Hull to Liverpool, and
thence to the United States, In prefer
ence to shipping from the Baltic d.
rect by the Bremen and German
Lloyd's steamers. The Liverpool 70
turns show that during the whole
quarter the departures Of ships for the
Uuited States have averaged more
than one per day while the emigrauts
have flocked westward at the rate of
II, 900 per month or Ia, 900 per year.

DOMESTIC EPISODE.

A rich occurrence took place at the
depot yesterday afternoon, says tho
Sacramento Record Of Friday, which
was highly enjoyed BY those who wit
messed 1t. It came about In this wise :
On Friday last q Portland tOregon)
man LEFT his wife and child In that city
and eloped with another woman, on
board the steamer for San Francisco.
The wife. on Sunday, set out overland
for this city, and travelled by stage and
rail without stopping until she arrived
here yesterday at ! o'clock. She en-
ployed Charles H. Mcmahon, the hack
man, to drive her up town and then
back to the depot, showing him a pic
ture Of her husband and telling him
that she wanted to see II he was on
the train. When the regular train
from San Francisco arrived, MoMahon
passed along BY the a windows and
discovered the truant husband and his
female companion seated In one of the
cars. He pointed him out to the wife,
aud she made q rush for him.. Lifting
the little boy in her powerful arms she
| threw him Into the car window, aud
he called out Papa" Justify. The
q uant husband aud his companion at
tempted to run out Of one door Of the
car rs the pursuing wife entered the
other, but the door being locked they
sought refuge In the closet. The vile
came out and bought a ticket for the
East keeping her eye on the car and
telling McMahon that she would 90
along with her husband. Finally the
hunted man and the woman emerged
fr5m the closet, and bis wife ex-
claimed: "Oh, John! there you are
with that bad woman. Ifyou're going
of with her I'm going too.n And she
did, for the train started of, carrying
the whole Of the unhappy group-tLe
wife and child crying, the other woman
sitting back In one corner q the car,
armed with q knife, and the husband
looking like q detected chicken thief.
We imagine that their trip overland
to the East will be anything but .
blisaful one. II we may judge by the
actions Of the injured wife when she
caught sight Of the runaways. She
was much the better looking OF the
two women. aud We eau scarcely &C.
count for the husbands taste.

MASON AND DIxoN's LINE.

Many Of our readers may not per-
haps remember or understand the es-
tablished meaning Of the above term
In American political statistics, there
fore by request we copy the following
from Chambers American Encyclo-
pedia :"
Mason and Dixon's line Is the line
which divides Pennsylvania from
Maryland, running on the parallel Of
80 deg. 43 min. Is sec. The boundary
between the colonial possessions Of
the Lords Baltimore aud OF the Penn
family had been q subject Of almost
continual dispute from the first settle
ment Of the country. At length, In
1850, the ~contending parties having
agreed upon a compromise. appointed
commissioners TO settle detinitively
the limits between the two territories.
Surveyors were accordingly employed
by both sides, but their progress ap-
pearing rather slow, the proprietors
who resided In England decided to
send Charles Mason and Jeremiah
DlxO1, tWO noShohiosA
clans and astronomers, to complete
the work which had been begun. They
arrived In Philadelphia In November
1888, and concluded their labors In the
Autumn Of 1867, having carefully sur
veyed aud marked q line Of nearly $50
miles, extending for the most part
through a dense forest, and passing
over . number OF mountain ridges.
This line. dividing as 1t does the free
State Of Pennsylvania from Maryland,
which was formerly q slave State, has
been often referred to, In popular Ian
guage, as the boundary between free
dom and slavery In the United States.
It Is important to distinguish be-
tween Mason and Dixon's line and
that Of So deg. 80 min., which separa-
ted the cotton States from the "border
slave States" as formerly designated.
This line Il. 9. the parallel Of s. deg.
30 min.l Is also the celebrated compro-
mise line which, In 1870, as a prelimi-
nary condition Of the admission Of
Missouri as q slave State, was agreed
to by Congress IS the northernmost
limit of such slave States as should
thereafter be admitted into the con-
federacy.

THE BOSTON FIRE.

It appears that Indirectly the horse
disease had considerable to do with the
spread Of the great fire In Boston. II
the horses had been well aud In con-
dition to rum with the machines on tho
sounding Of the first alarm, the fire
would doubtless have been confined to
the building In which 1t originated.
Latest kilograms from Boston gives
statement made by a foreman Of one
Of the steam ire engines, to the fol-
lowing effect
When the epidemic made It's appear
ance In Boston, and the horses Of the
Fire Department were attacked, an
order was issued not to use them under
any circumstances. A supplementary
edlct prescribed what was to be done
In case OF n fire. When an alarm was
received the flremen were to drag
the hose carts and ladder apparatus
to the scene and endeavor by the
plug streams and the use Of axes
and hooks to subdue the flames. In
case the plaze increased and they found
themselves unable TO control It, q sec-
ond alarm was TO be given, and the
engines brought on the ground BY
hand. When the first alarm was
sounded on Saturday, the mon started
for the ire with the hose carts. The
hose was attached to the street by
drants, but the water was useless a
the pressure was not strong enough to
carry 1t to tho second story OF the
burning building. In accordance with
orders . second alarm was then
turned on and the steamers made their
appearance, arriving On the ground
| thirty-six minutes after the fire was
tirst discovered. There was not a
steam engine located within half a
mile of the building where the fire
originated. It will DO remembered
that newspaper dispatches stated that
the steamers did not force water thirty
feet high, and that they were incapa-
BILE Of any greater performance. The
reporters In Boston were mlsled by
| the plug streams, no steamers being
on the ground for YER half an hour
after the fire broke out. The foreman
states that the Boston engines are Of
the best make, every q Of them be-
ing able to force water over the top Of
any building In the city. he attributes
| the speed Of the flames to the order 10
regard to horses aud to that alone.
