SAN Francisco, Oct. 2l.-The Con.
eressioual Committee on the Chinese
question re-assemoled this morning, and
listened to the arguments of Frank Nc.
Coppn, representing the State Senate,
and Frank Pixiey, on behalf of this city.
on the subject under inquiry. The re-
marks of these men were devoted to a
general arraignment OF the policy
which permits unrestricted Chinese i'm.
migration. and setting forth the evils
flowing from the invasion.
From the mass of charges aud counter
charges made by both Republicans and
Democrats concerning the black list
made out by Nathaniel Holland, U. s.
Inspector of Elections, these points
seem TO commend themselves az the
facts in the case. Some gentlemen, Re-
publicans, in examining the ward regis
tiers, were struck by the number of for
eign registrations, and from their know
ledge OF the precincts, suspected that all
was not right, but that an effort was be-
ing made to stuff the Great Begister with
the names OF illegal voters. They called
Hollands attention to the matter, when
he at once began an examination. So
far from therey being any intention OF
keeping the matter dark until the eve.
of election, when it would be tool late
for those who could prove citizenship to
take the necessary steps to do so, it
was proposed to at once put the matter
in print, but it was finally decided to as.
certain beyond peradAenture whether an
actual examination of the records would
show such state of affairs. This was
| done and the result is known. No doubt
it was intended that this expose of at
tempted fraud should be used as q Re-
publican campaign argument, hui be-
yond that there is nothing to show any
design Of springing trap on the Demo.

SAN Francisco, Oct, 2l.- News has

PACIFIC COAST.

SAN Francisco. Oct. 21.--The publ.
ing the names of over four thousand
foreign-born citizens, whose naturaliza-
ton papers are imperfect, in conse-
quence of which their votes will be
challenged and thrown out, has given
rise to an immense amount of excite
ment and hard swearing. The Demo-
Gratis assert that the publication of the
list was the part Of deliberate plan to
crush out the Democratic vote; that the
plot was intended to hit the laboring
men OF the city who had no time to
spend three or four hours at the polls
furnishing proof of their being American
citizens. They also charge that the
plot was got up by the Republican party
managers with the view of keeping it
quiet until just before the election, when
the trap would be sprung, but that the
Democrats got wind OF it, and forced the
publication at once. The Republicans
claim that the action OF the Inspectors
of Election is only what is required by
law and justice; and that there are hun
dreds of men being registered here who
have no business here, and have evident
ly been imported. The black list will be
the means of stopping this sort of thing
and put the election on fair basis.
Upon the street q good deal Of growing
was heard concerning this vote quashine
the proclamation from persons in both
parties. The list is said by those who
have examined it. to contain about 400
Republicans and $500 Democrats. Both
parties are taking active measures tc
supply the defects in the registration 81

DEAR SIR:-It may be some satisfac-
ton to you to be informed Of the result |
of the trial of the Peruvian Syrup in my |
family. My daughter was brought low
by typoid fever last Spring and after the |
fever lett her she continued very weak,
and the simplest food distressed her.
For months she remained in the same
debilitated condition; but from the FIRE.
of September last, when she commenced
taking the Syrup, the digestive functions
improved, and she steadily gained
strength and vivacity; and now, after
taking two bottles. she is restored to o
good state of health; indeed, she appears
more really healthy than she has for
several years past. am of opinion that
the "Protoxide of Iron" contained in
the Peruvian Syrup. was adapted to her
case, and effected what no other known
medicine could have effected.
Yours truly, 8. Com.
