A GOOD COUNTERFEIT NICKLE.

The smallest and meanest of all

numbers throughout the country. 1t

worthless only because the counter.
felt, although it is identical in weight
and titeness with the genuine coin, and
worth just as much, is not made at the
government mint. The 5 cent piece is
a sham and deceit at best, for it costs
the government, including material,
labor, &C., less than half cent piece,
or 10 per cent of it's nominal value.
Some Of the counterfeits were recent
ly sent to the superintendent of the
mint in Philadelphia by the treasurer
for the purpose of making inquiries
and to test their value. The superin-
tendent says the counterfeits have
been assayed and found to contain cop
per and nickle in the legal proportion,
that the coins are of proper weight,
size and finish, and just as valuable as
the good coin. The only way to de-
tect the spurious coin is by the i'm
perfect impression of the legend SIN

THE CHINESE QUESTION.
St. Louis Globe Democrat

Within a week the Supreme Court of
the United States has rendered decis-
ions upon questions affecting the priv
ileges of the chief port on the Atlantic
coast and the chief port on the Pacific,
and in each case the decision of the
Court has been adverse to the local
rights claimed respectively by New
York and San Francisco. TO protect
herself from the natural consequences
OF allowing the pirates of the wharf to
prey upon the immigrants, and to meet
the expenses of the helpless immi-
grants; New York, 80 years ago, levied
4 capltation tax upon all immigrants.
10 guard against the inevitable conse-
quences of all Eruption of soulless,
constituencies, alien heathens from
China, the City of San Francisco has
been allowed by the state Of Califor-
mia to levy still heavier tax upon
their unwelcome immigrants, to refuse
them the privilege of landing unless
they can comply with certain require
ments, and to impose other discrimi-
nations, which have been laid on with
a right good will. The law of New
York and the law of San Francisco
have alike been declared in conflict
with the Constitution and for all the
local authorities can do to prevent it,
the country must lie open on both sides
to the pauper hordes imported by the
avarice of ship.oWners or Chinese COM
panies.
While the two cases are alike in their
general tenor, they are utterly dissimi-
lar in their consequences. The immi-
grants at New York at least belong to
the same great division of the human
family, are readily amenable to our
laws, and readily assimilate with our
natiye-born population. But in Cali.
fornia the case is different. The Chi
nese are as completely slaves as any
negro on Southern plantation before
the war they do not admit the bind
ing force OF an oath !; they hold them
selves absolved from all responsibility
to our Government, and the objections
lie against the Chinese race, not
against individuals. Yet our relations
with them are controlled only by the
National Government, which has COM
PEELED China to admit us to her ports
and to treat with us on equal terms,
after having bombarded the City of

The National CAMPAIGN.

1t is claimed by Mr.. Blaine's friends
that the Texas delegation to the National Re-
publican convention will vote for Morton first,
but that Blaine is their second choice.
The Republicans of South Carolina
had a stormy time in their convention on the
18th, but delegates were elected who will go
to the national Convention unpledged.
The charge made by the Indianapolis
Sentinel that Blaine received money from the
Union Pacific railroad for an improper pur-
pose has been denied by the treasurer of the
company and by the financial agents named
in the charge.
A brisk skirmish took place between
the federal forces of Mexico and the United
States troops at New Laredo, Texas, on the
10th. Two shells were thrown from the Texas
side over to the attacking force of Mexicans,
killing two men and silencing the firing for
the day.

HANCOCK IN MINNESOTA
Wabashaw County Sentinel (dem.)

NaDashaW county ScntneI (0em.
General Winfield S. Hancock, of
Pennsylvania, is urged by the democ-
racy of that state as a candidate for
the presidency. The sentiment is
becoming very general in his ia
vor, and not .only in his own state
but in various other states. In dis
cussing his claims with other candi-
dates it is generally conceded that of
all the gentlemen mentioned in con-
nection with the presidency, he is bet
ter known, more tried and more popu-
lar than any of them and therefore
more likely to succeed. AS soldier,
General Hancock has but few, if any
equals in this country. His various
achievements with the army of the i'm
mortal second corps, has placed his
name high upon the scroll of fame.
His administration of public affairs
wherever he has presided is marked
with wisdom and integrity. If it had
not been for Hancock we should have
lost the battles of Gettysburg, Wilder
ness, Spottsylvania and Cold Harbor.
In these great sanguinary struggles he
proved himself equal to the occasion.
We think he is q man of superior nat
ural executive ability. We hope the
national convention will give him a
fair show, and if merits have ANYTHING
to do with it we think the name of
Gen. Hancock will not stand second to
any which may be offered as candi-
dates.

THE DICKENS CHILDREN IN AMBOY: ILL.
There are three children at Amboy,
illinois, nephew and nieces of Charles
Dickens, the children of his brother
Augustus N. Dickens. The story has
recently been started through the agen-
cy OF some newspaper pirate that they
were being sustained by the charity of
a farmer as the only means of keeping
them from the poor house. The story
is, however, authoritively contradict
ed, and the statement made that quite
a competency was left them by their
father, as well as a sum of considera-
BILE value, the accumulation of yearly
stipend of fifty pounds sterling, con-
tributed to them by their uncle,
Charles Dickens, for some time be-
fore his death.

THE DEATH-BED OF JESSE D. BRIGHT.
(Rcv. W: II. Felix in Western Recorder)
Ex-senator Jesse D. Bright had nev-
er made profession of religion, but
he had often been the subject of deep
religious conviction. He often spoke
of his intention to become a Christian
some day. Several months ago he in
Vited me to go up to his mines. in West
Virginia, and hold meeting. He had
made arrangements for the meeting.
and told me it was then his settled pur-
pose to publicly confess the Saviour,
be baptized, and join the Baptist
Church. This he was not permitted to
do. Death claimed him before his pur-
pose was contaminated. When he re-
allied that it was impossible for him
to do this, and that soon he must meet
his God, he began in earnest to set his
house in order. He sent for me and
visited him at his home in Baltimore,
where he had settled only few
months previous. We talked and
prayed together day after day. Never
have seen one so anxious about his
SOULS salvation as was he, and never
have | so realized the responsibility of
a minister of the gospel by the bedside
of the dying.
We took him as we would little
child, and endeavored to lead him to
Jesus. His regret for the neglect of
the past was overwhelming. His own
words were: ''lt is the greatest mis-
take of my life that I have deferred
this matter until now After having
for several days prayed with him and
instructed him, we were setting with
all the family in his room on Sabbath
afternoon. 1t was 4 solemn but prec-
ious occasion. We all knelt down and
l prayed, and then he asked his wife
to pray, and others, and singing that
hymn, ''We speak of the land Of the
blest;' and then he asked me to sing
the hymn in which were the words
''Jesus sought me when stranger. -
We all sang it, and he joined in with
us, the tears all the while streaming
from his eyes. He then said : Il
would like to pray, audibly myself, but
| have not the BREATH then went
to him and said: "Judge, how is it
with you now?" Says he, 81 will tell
you in a few words how feel-Here,
Lord, l give myself to thee, tbs all
that can do" Then we believe he
gave his heart fully to the Saviour,
and rested in hope Of eternal life.
With his trust alone in the blood of
Jesus Christ, he passed away.
