FAITH. - Who else, among the
papers of the State, but The Austin
Reveile would dare perpetrate the
following: An Indian recently en-.
tered one of our variety stores and
asked the proprietor for bottle of
that kind of medicine used by the
white men who have "heap pap0ose. "
The variety store man explained to
the Indian that those kind of mix
lures were to be purchased at the
drug store, and as his own family
vas limited, 1t was evident that he
did not deal in that kind of goods.
The Indian then crossed the street to
a drug store and reported his request
to the clerk, who, wishing to main
tain the reputation Of the white mans
medi inc, passed over bottle of
horehound syrup to his pater-
nally inclined red brother. Now,
supposing this MEDICINE produces the
anticipated effect, there will not
only be an increased activity in
Indian affairs, but also a corner ON
horehound syrup.

PRESIDENTIAL UTTERAyCEs.

At Columbus, Ohio, when about to
start to Washington on Thursday,
Governor Hayes spoke as follows; l
appear to say few words In bidding
good-by to you. / understand very
we'll the uncertainty of public office
at Washington. ! understand very
we'll that possibly next week l may
be with you again, to resume my
place in the Governors office, but l
also understand that it Is my duty to
be at Washington, prepared to as
sumo another position, higher and
more responsible and difficult duties.
/ have thought, as I looked upon this
great audience, and as l gazed upon
the people who thronged our route to
the depot, of a similar occurrence
sixteen years ago. A little less than
sixteen years ago, with thousand
men, l marched down High street to
pass to the East and to the South to
do what we could to restore the
union of the States, and to re-estab-
lish the authority Of the Constitution.
In that work we were eventually sue
cessful--so far as it was possible to
be successful by force of arms. l
am not here to say word in dispar-
agement of what was accomplished
by the brave men who went out with
me from different parts of the coun-
try-of my comrades Il the Third
Regiment-and who never returned
to their homes. They persisted in the
discharge of their duty, that the re-
public might live. There was some
thing force could not do. We must
have our Union to be q union of
hearts, aud we would have our Con
stitution obeyed, not merely because
of the force that compels obedience,
but obeyed because the people love
the principles of the Constitution !;
and to-day, if am called to the
work to which Abraham Lincoln was
called sixteen years ago, it is under
brighter skies and more favorable
auspices. I do hope and fervently
believe that, by the aid OF Divine
Providence, we may do something in
this day of peace, by works of peace,
toward re-establishing in the hearts
OF our countrymen a real, hearty at
tachment to the Constitution and
Union as they are.

Chinese Committee Report.

The joint committee to investigate
the subject of Chinese immigration
have submitted report to Congress,
accompanying the testimony taken.
The language of the report is not
strong enough to suit some Of our
temporaries, but the conclusion
reached is in entire accord with the
prevalent opinion of the Pacific Coast
people. Followingis portion Of the
report, as telegraphed:
As the safety of republican institu-
tons requires that the exercise OF
the franchise shall only be exer-
cised by those who love and appre-
ciate our institutions, this necessa-
rily excludes the great mass of Chi
nese from the ballot as necessary
means to public safety. yet the ap.
plicatlon Of the rule deprives them Of
the only adequate protection which
can exist in a republic for security of
any distinctive large class of per-
sous, an indigestible mass in the
community-distinct in language,
Pagan in religion, inferior in all
mental and moral qualities and all
peculiarities-is undesirable in re-
public and becomes especially SO If
political power if placed IN its hands,
and the safety Of the State demands
that such power shall not be so placed.
The safety of the class, however,
seems to depend in a measure upon
that power. There are, therefore,
springing from this subject antago-
nistic considerations, the only way to
reconcile which would seem to be
that the laws should discourage the
large influx of any class of popula-
ton to whom the ballot cannot be
safely confided. To any one reading
the testimony which we lay before
the two houses, it will become pain
fully evident that the Pacific coast
must in time become either Ameri-
can or Mongolian. There is a vast
hive from which the Chinese lmmi-
grants may swarm, and circumstan-
ces may send them in enormous num-
bers to this country. These two forces
Monaghan and American-are al
ready in active opposition. They do
not amalgamate, and all conditions
are opposed to any assimilation. The
American race Is progressive and in
favor of responsible republican gov
eminent, but the Monaghan race
seems to have no desire for progress,
and to have n, conception of repub-
lican and free institutions. The Chi
nese possess advantages which put
them far in advance. They can sub
sist where an American would starve
they will work for wages which will
not furnish the bsrest necessities of
lite to an American; they will make
their way in California as they have
in the islands of the sea, not by su-
perior force or virtue, or even indus
try-although they are as arule in
dustrious-but by revolving charac-
teristics, and by dispensing with what
have become the necessities of mod
ern civilization, and to compete with
them or excel them is impossible.
