ENGLAND AND CHiNA.-The difi-
culties of China with England seem to
have suggested in some quarters tina:
England may not contine her move
ment in the China business to obtain.
ing satisfaction for the murder of
British subject. The London TTMEs,
discussing the Chinese subject, says;
English nerve, muscle, habits Of
obedience, and breech leaders form q
wedge that would cut through and
through the pulpy mass of oriental
life. What was done in India can be
repeated in China. But We must warn
any budding Gives that it .can be
done only at the expense of the same
consequences to ourselves. II We
shatter the Chinese authority, we shall
next be loaded with the responsibility
of putting some authority in its place.
The necessity would not come in
rush it would appear insidiously,
and in u hundred disguised forms,
| lust as it did in Hindoostan. But We
should be dragged on bit by bit, often
against our Will, and as if we were
blindfolded. We should be dragged
on as we were in India more than a
| century ago, and as the Russians in
| CenLral ASH iiC " Nal ASAShRsSAy
| orders against conquest would, OF
of course, be sent from London, Just
as they are sometimes dispatched from
st. Petersburg to Turkestan. Advent
urous spirits would be punished for
striking too hard and going too far,
| lust as they sometimes are reprimand-
ed for committing these offences in
Central Asia to day. But young, ar
dent, daring spirits would not give
a thought to such cobweb checks.
Fired by the passion for self-distinc-
ton. by a civilized mans hatred of
disorder, and by his detestation of the
| atrocities which would staid Chinese
warfare, they would run the risk of
receiving rebuke from the authorities
at home, and if they should be Pc
culiarly successful, as they would be,
they would of course be forgiven.
Thus are built up the responsibilities
of empire"
While this picture appears to dep,
recate the conquest of China,it Is well
calculated TO rouse ambition and Gu
pidlty. The rivalry of Russia is not
likely to render the scheme practlcables
No opposition that the Chinese could
offer would be in the way of great
moral and military power whose con-
science would permit it to make Q
prey of this vast, helpless mass OF
humanity. The que estion of morality
, however. might be appropriately con
isidered in the case.

Heavy winds are lcommon often

The principal organ of the Terri
tory, the "1he Rocky Mouuta,n Neacs"
is disgrace to q civilized people. The
vile, coarse SANDER, made use of by

This country has been a resort for
lnvalids for the last few years, but it
is becoming more unpopular every
year. Persons in the first stage of
consumption are generally benefited
and often entirely cured by coming
here, but when the disease is advanced
beyond what is considered the first
stage, by coming here, the patient 1s
often made very much worse. Asth.
matics are most all relieved and some
cured, but on their return home, the
complaint comes back on them as be-
fore.

The best season for inyalids to como

then to camp or board at some water
ing place. 1t Is believed by many
physicians that the most benefit is
derived by coming across the planes
from the Missouri River by teams. The
severe winters and sudden changes
tells fearfully on consumptives.
Last winter at our hotel, twenty out
of twenty one invalids died, or went
10 their homes to die, being beyond
recovery.
1t is sad mistake for invalids to
leave there friends and all the comforts
of home, in the winter or late in the
fall, for dreary arctic region like this
where the hotels ald boarding houses
afford such poor accommodations.
No doubt but the question may bo
ed nv many where ia there a unod
country for sonsumptives to go, when
the winters are mild. My answerJis
Mexico or Southern California. It's
also great mistake for invalids to
come out here as they doin large num-
bers after they are given up as incur
able by their physicians at home, for
they seldom lind relief and most al
ways die much sooner than they would
in their own states.
Rheumatism and catarrh are very
common to Colorado, and at least one
third of the persons who come here
contract one or both of those diseases
within six months.
After one year experience In Terri
tory for my health, | am prompted to
make this statement for the benefit of
invallds and to give to others who
think of coming to Colorado, correct
idea of The great Switzerland of

PINCHBACK AND HIS CLAIMS.

Correspondence st. Louis Republican, 18th inst.
The Louisiana case is likely to be brought
to an exciting climax on Monday. Pinchback
left New Orleans for this city on Friday morn
ing and will present his credentials to the
Senate on Monday. It is understood that the
Senate Republican caucus resolved by q vote
of eight to admit him upon the prima facie
title which his certificate of election presents.
The Democrats announce that they will op-
pose such hasty proceedings to the utmost
extent OF their power, both on account of the
illegality of the election by virtue of which
this would-be colored Senator claims his seat.
and of the faint of fraud and corruption which
attaches to his past history.
Pinch is an unpalatable dose for both par
ties, and rumor has it that Carpenter, Frel-
inghuysen and Howe, besides one or two
more of the Republican Senators are strongly
opposed to his admission, the former because
OF his general objection to the legality of the
existing Government in Louisiana, and the
Latter two because of the fear entertained by
the Administration that Pinchback's loyalty is
not to be depended on The old feud be-
tween Kellogg and Pinchback is ready to
break out at any moment, and your cores
pendent has good authority for the statement
that Kellogg is only kept from protesting
against Pinchback's recognition by the fear
that Pinchback would go over to the Demo-
Gratis with his colored followers, among whom
may be counted all the members of the Louis
ANA Legislature, four-ffths of the Republican
strength in that body.

A STRANGE AFFAIR.
Two Men Engage In a Difficulty ON tn,
Landing Both Men Fall Overheard
and are Drowned.

Last night about o'clock difficulty took
place on the wharf, at the head of Calliope
street, between two men, named John Dormer
and the other party unknown. Both men
cinched and fell into the river.
The private Waterman on the landing,
about square distant from the fight, noticed
them pass at different intervals during the
afternoon, and saw that they were both under
the influence of liquor. The cause of the
tragic occurrence could not be learned, as no
one was near when the affair took place.
The bodies have not as yet been recovered.

THE LINDSEY MURDER CASE.
An Investigation before the Coroner.

Coroner Chastant yesterday held the in.
quest in the case of one Louis Lindsay, alias
William Willis, who was stabbed in the lef
breast, Sunday afternoon, at the corner Of
Thalia and st. Thomas streets and who died
at ~ o'clock the same night from his wound,
which was at the time pronounced by the at
tending physician as not being of a danger
GUS nature. The following is the evidence
elected before the coroner:
Louisa Lemons, No. GO St. Thomas street.
On Saturday afternoon, about o'clock, Jan
uary II. 1875, was sitting at my gate with
Emma Dixon, Laura VIM and Caroline Field
We were talking to Louis Linsay, the deceased,
when Jack Williams, alias Salt Jack, came
from the corner grocery store and said,
Lindsay, you are s of a b-h." Lindsay
replied, 'Jack, you are gentleman" Then
Jack, who had a knife in his hand, plunged
it into Lindsay's breast.
The deceased then said: Jack, do you mean
to cut me? and he replied yes, meant to cut
you, G-d-you. Then Lindsay pulled pis-
toll out of his pocket and fired at Jack VIII
liams. As soon as Lindsay fired off his pistol
he ran around the corner. Jack Williams ran
through the grocery to head him of, but was
stopped by woman who caught hold of him.
Jack put his arm around the woman's neck,
kissed her and walked back.
Emma Dixon, Laura VIM and Caroline
Fields corroborated the statement of the above
witness, after which the jury gave verdict
that the deceased came to his death from
a wound in the breast, administered with
some sharp instrument, at the hands of one
Jack Williams, alias Salt Jack, who is still at
large.
Coroner Chastant will make the necessary
affidavit before Judge Evans, charging the ac-
cused with willful murder. The police are
we'll acquainted with Jack Williams alias Salt
Jack, and we presume he will turn up at any
early day to answer the charges preferred
against him.

SHERIDAN AS A DOCrHER AT LAW.

The Louisville Courier-Journal gets off
rish ode on Sheridan, which we reprodu
lightly abbreviated:
There was little man
And his name was Sheridan,
And he had his lit lie plan
For to save the Government.
Says he: "Me frinds at coort
Have determined to RESORT
To very sharp and short
Constitutional coup d'etdt;
And they've sent me on this raid
Bekase understand me thrade,
And, bedad, I'm not afraid
OF ayther league or law.
All yez people in this city
Are the hoith of bould banditti
OTIS thrue, and more's the PITY,
That's the koind of men yez are.
Av me chafe will turn me loose,
Sure I'll ak no more excuse;
By the powers, I'll cook yer goose
Wild a little blaze of war.
" All this bloody howl must cease
About yer tax increase,
Sure me friends must steal in peace,
And the nagurs live, arrah
Och, I'd like to make it hot
For the dirthy Dimicrat
Who would dare to say Tn not
Jist a docther of the law"
