THE BURIAL OF MOSES.
Br MRS. c. F. ALEXANDER.

BT MRS. c. F. ALEXANDER.
Dsut 81, 8.
By Eebo's lonely mountain,
! On this side Jordan's wave,
In a vale in the land of Moab,
There lies lonely grave;
And no man knows that sepuleher,
And no man saw it e'er,
The Angel of God upturned the cod,
And laid the dead man there.
That was the grandest funeral
That ever passed on earth,
And no man heard the trampHng
Or saw the train go forth.
Noislessly as the daylight
Comes back when the night is done,
And the crimson streak on ocean's cheek
Grows into the great sun;
Noiselessly as the spring-time
Her crown of verdure weaves,
And all the trees on all the hills
Open their thousand leaves;
So, without sound of mnsic
Or the voice of them that wept,
Silently down from the mountains croTR
The grand procession swept
Perchance the bald old eagle
On grey Befh-peOr's height,
Out of his lonely eyrie,
Look'd on the wond'rous sight;
Perchance the lion, stalking,
Still shuns that hallowed spot,
For beast and bird have seen and heard
That which man l1nowethnot.
But when the warrior dieth,
His comrades in the war,
With armsreversed and munied drum,
Follow his funeral car;
They show the banners taken,
They tell the battles won,
And after him lead his masterless steed,
While peals the minute-gun.
Amid the noblest of the land
We lay the sage to rest,
And give the bard an honored place,
With costly marble drest.
In the great Minister transept,
Where lights like giories fall,
And the organ rings and the sweet choir sings,
Along the emblazoned wall
This was the truest warrior
That ever buckled sword;
This the most gifted poet
That ever breathed a word;
And never earth's philosopher
Traced with his golden pen
On the deaihless page truths half 50 sage
As he wrote down for men.
And had he not high honor?
The hillside for pail;
To lie in state while angels wait,
With stars for tapers tall;
And the dark rock pines, like tossing plumes,
Ger his bier to wave;
And Gods own hand in that lonely land
To lay him in the grave
In that strange grave without name,
Whence his uncofined clay
Shall break again, owondrous thought
Before the Judgment-Day,
And stand with glory wrapt around
On hills he never trod,
And speak of the strife that won our life
With the Incarnate Son of God.
A lonely grave in Hoab's landl
dark Beth-poor's hill
Speak to these curious hearts of ours,
And teach them to be stiI,
God hath His mysteries of grace
Ways that we cannot tell;
He hides them deep, like the hidden sleep
OF Him he loved so well.

CHINESE WOMEN.

Twenty-Five Chinese women seeEi to have
lately set the city of San Francisco in an up
roar. Ordinarily, one woman might have
done it; but these were of an inferior race,
it should be observed, and it required more
of them to move the Golden City. The TWEEN
ty.two women arrived from China on the
steamer Japan, and were objected to by the
State Commissioner of Emigration, on the
ground that they were chattels, imported for
immoral purposes. He prohibited their land
ing. The Cinnamon who had Imported them
set up that they were immigrants. and were
entitled to protection and liberty under the
Civil Rights law and the treaty between the
United States and China. On writ Of ha-
beas corpus they were brought before a Dis
trict Court, which amid great excitement on
the part of the Chinese population, decided
that they were courtesans, and, under the
laws of the State, could not be allowed to re-
main in San Francisco. They were, accord
ingly, remand, d to China. Brought to the
steam ship, these uAfortunates refused to go
on board they lay on the wharf and howled
piteously, and were carried on to the ship by
main strength. There they were released,
just as the vessel was sailing, by a new writ
from the Supreme Court of the State. The
women were sent to Jail for safe keeping, and
the whole case, involving the obligations of
the Burlingame treaty, the Civil Rights law,
and the Fifteenth Amendment to the Consti-
tIo -n;t cd
The final decision, as we now learn by tele-
graph, was to the effect that the Importation
of the women was unconstitutional and illegal
and that they must be sent back to China by
the ship that brought them. This is a test
case, and has, therefore, great interest to
Californians bent on preventing the importa-
ton of foreign courtesans.

STATE TAXATION.

We notice that some of our democratic
exchanges are seeking to give an incor-
rect impression relative to the increase of
State taxation, and are charging that the
increase is the result of republican rule.
The facts are simply these: In 1856 the
State tax was little over S200,000 or two
mills on the dollar of the valuation. In
addition to this, however, there was rev.
cnue of about 100000 from the State
matchmaking the receipts and expendl-
lures of the State about $3.50, 900, or more
than three mills. At this time the State
contributed from State taxation not sin
Gle dollar for the support of public
schools.
The State taxation last year was five
and half mills, or nearly one and a
quarter million Of dollars, and there was
no revenue for State purposes from any
other source But of this sum about $3.50,
900 or over two mills was for interest and
reduction of principal of war debt, and
about 1926, 900 or one and a half mills, to
aid towns in supporting public schools, IN
addition to the amount distributed through
the Savings Bank tax. Thus for these
two purposes-war debt and public
schools-the State contributed by taxation
in 1873 the sum of nearly 100000 or
three and half mills on dollar of the
valuation, for which nothing was raised
by the State by taxation in 1856. Setting
aside these two items, and the expenses
of The State in 1873 were only about two
and half mills on dollar of the valua-
ton, against three mills in 1856. In other
words the ordinary State expenditures
have not increased as much pro-
portionally as the valuation-the
State tax for ordinary expenses
having decreased ne-fourth of mill on
the dollar; and the cost of carrying on
the State government has not advanced
so much as private expenditures gener-
ally More than that, not single State
in the Union, under democratic rule, is
run SO economically as the State govern
ment of Maine. -LeCist0n Journal.
