Are the Chinese Descended from American
lndians2

At recent meeting of the San Francisco
Academy of Sciences, Charles Brooks read
a paper on ''The Origin of the Chinese Ra-
ces," in which some curious deductions are
made. A local paper summarizes the pa
per as follows: Central Asia has hitherto
had the credit of being the cradle of man
kind. Scientists say that America is older,
geographically, than any other part Of the
earth's surface. Therefore, in natural pro-
cess Of evolution, the aboriginal man must
have appeared on this hemisphere in the vi
cinity of the first rocky elevation The
Chinese people are unlike any other people
on the continent Of Asia. They are hem
med in by mountains, and the great wall
along the northern and western frontier.
They have had no communication with other
Asiatic peoples from time immemorial. Ac-
cording to this tradition, their first progen-
itors landed on the southern coast Of China.
In looking for the place where they might
naturally have been brought by favoring
winds and currents, our attention is turned
to Peru. The records of that country show
an immense antiquity. Their civilization
was extremely ancient and remnants of an
almond eyed race resembling the Monaghan
are found in the Peruvian mountains and
also about the head waters of the Amazon.
Peru had an immense population 1900
years before Christ. Early in the history
of the world the Peruvians possessed a knowl-
ledge of solar movements, the mariners
compass and hieroglyphics or picture
writing. An armed vessel or invader might
have gone in sixty days from Peru to the
southern coast of China Chinese records
show that 1858 years before Christ, Fo Hi,
a stranger King, introduced tie reconcile
knowledge possessed by The Peruvians to
the Chinese The lower roots of the Peru
Wan Telegraph are connected with the PIG
radicals Of the Chinese language. These
writings occur all through Asia, and rs far
west as the pyramids. The suggestions Of
these facts and the many differences to be
drawn from them were elaborated with
much specification Of detail 1t was shown
that while Peru had at one time IL ,OOO, 900
of inhabitants her industries had died out
and her population disappeared, China had
gone on increasing her population inde6-
nitely, and achieved high degree Of civili-
.atien. The paper was listened to with in

tendant discovered that Mac had suddenly
disappeared. The guards were as comfort
able at possible, and were snoreing avay at
beautiful rate. The negro shook them up a
little, and attempted to explain matters :
sYour prisoner is gone," said the negro.
"Gone where?" said the guard. But this
was more than the African attendant could
answer.
It suddenly dawned upon the befuddled
minds of Uncle Samueps vigilants that Mr..
CARNEY had once more proved more than
| a match for gentlemen of their cloth. but
| how they felt is just little more than they
| can we'll say. United States Marshals are
evidently "meat'' for the Industrious Nc
Cartney.
The train was not stopped on the instant,
but come on to Willis, where it was switch
ed off on side track. The guard came
along with it. This gave Mack a good
many miles the start, and although pursuit
was instituted, his chances of escape are
fully even with his pursurcrs' chances for
capture. And, solemnly speaking, the in
defatigable money manufacturer has no
right to be brought up by United States
Havanas. He's 'skeener" is Mccartney,
if he'd try.
The presumption is-but, of course, only
presumption-that Mccartney was aided
by the two strangers who were observed
about him on the train: that the cigars he
had were drugged, and SO soon as he in
duced his guard to partake he felt his for
tunes improving; that when sleep overlook
the MarsEals he was all right; and with i'm
plements, probably also furnished him by
the same hands, he cut the irons that boun
his legs, and, leaping from the train while
in motion, he stood, or lay, upon Texas soil,
with once more show for his white alley.
"My foot is on my native heath, and my
name is MacGregor!" soliloquized Mozart
ney; but where he is now, the good patr on
of all such cheualiers dindustyie alone knows.

THE LOUISIANA OrTRAuE.

The news from Louisiana grows in inn
portsnce, and is conclusive evidence that
the Republican administration is resolved
TO crush ont liberty in that State. Foi
the first time in the history OF the Ameri.
can nation, State legislature has been
organized by the United States army. and
men claiming TO DE members have been
expelled at the point of the bayonct.
"Give me authority" cries Gen. Sheri-
dan, ''and ] will hang these opponents
of the Republican party without jury,
They are banditti." Never was greater
outrage than the armed interference OF
the Republican party in Louisiana pcrpe-
trsted, and il is the duty of every patrl.
otto citizen to protest against it. The
Democratic-Iiberal committee of thi.
county should call the people together in
an indignation meeting and do so a,
once.

moRE About TnE GAHBLED MES

President Grant has had an interview
with the Washington agent OF the Assoc
ciated Press. and In this Interview an at
| tempt has been made TO explain how the
discrepancies between the foreign version
of the Presidents message and the home
version ca,nc about. But, Ia thi> ease.
explanations do not explain. and the be-
lief is growing that the President al.
viscrs, If not the President himself, knew
just how the discrepancies came about.
\ late Washington special say:
"SOmc years ago l'rc>iIcnt Grant. in
his anxiety 10 cyincc respect for Con-
grcs,. determined not to let his message
be even printed in advance. tor icarlcast
copy might find its way to the press he
fore Congress should receive it. On this
occasion regular synopsis of the docu-
ment seems to have been prepared, APP
parcnily by some one who had ample OPP
portunity to see the original, and this
synopsis finds it, way by the general
Press Association 10 New York and other
points. 1t is very doubtful whether Til,
would or could have been done. but for
the special paragraph relating to spanish
affairs. At New York the parties
manipulating the affair seem to have
been still more bold and aulaciou,
III their operations. aud managed to get
into the Reuter- dispatches the warlikc
paragraph about Spain, which threw the
whole stock market intoa fever and Nut
ter. with opportunities for millions to the
middlc-agcd friends of the President who
put up the job. and their moncycd allie,
who were In the secret. The belief here
is that the whole affair was engineered hy
the ring. which. of all othrr-. la, the
! greatest influence with Grant. and has
had ever since he entered the Whit,
Housc--thc same ring which upheld III,
profligacy and pIunderng of the Dstric
