JUDGE CHoATE, Of one of the New
York Courts, decided a few days ago
that Chinaman cannot be naturaliz,

lived in New York twenty.eight
years, that he was guided by the
action Of Judge Sawyer Of this city
in the All Yup' case, in which it was
held that a Chinaman was Ineligible
to citizenship because he was not d

THE SABBATH.

Mr. EditOr.-As your paper circulates in majority of the families who have attended the discussion of this topic, will you allow us space to present few thoughts respecting it.
 Sabbath means rest in it's highest sense rest spiritual, physical. sacred, holy. The Sabbath wasinstituted in Eden, and thus, like the insti- tuition of marriage, was deslgned to be perpetual. At the close of the six periods or days of crea tion, it is said God rested from all his works which He had created and made, and blessed the seventh day and sanctiied it Not that the Creator ceased to be active, or needed rest but in the contemplation of his works, which With infinite joy he pronounced good He in- stituted for man, and gave an example of now It should be kept. If man needed 1t in ms innocency, how much more in his fallen s'ate' Tn which he is estranged from the Crea- LOT ana needs communion with Him. and amid the trials and turmoils of life, he needs to rec. reate both body and mind by rest. and raise his thoughts, to God his Maker. in pratifiad worship and praise.
 For nearly twenty five hundred years. unt;l the giving of the law at Sinai little is said about the Sabbath. although we may suppoae it was observed by all the pioas and godly, so far as their circumstances would admit, until

Julia, daughter of the late Rexford Bald win. of South Cornwall, died suddenly at the house of Mrs. Harry Baldwin, of North Corn wall, aged B years. The deceased had been spending the evening previous to her death in company with her sister and other young peo- pie at neighbor's, and retired for the night apparently as well as usual; but, about 12 o'clock Wednesday night, she awoke her sis ter and remarked that she felt strangely. Be- fore any assistance could be rendered she was dead. The funeral services were held on Sat- urday, but as there was doubts entertained by her friends as to the condition of the remains, and thinking she might be lying in an uncon- scious state, it were thought best to defer the burial for few days at least.

AMERICAN APPLES IN EUROPE.

An interesting fact, and one at the
present time which Is attracting no little
attention. is, Our largely increasing export
adc OF Europe. Thata fruit 50 common,
and vet so valube to Us rs the American
apple. should be creating a large demand
In foreign countries Is somewhat curious:
vet such is the case, as the following in
teresting statistics will prove. IN the
wear 1875 Great Britain was visited with
not only severe trostS, but heavy winds
and rain, which in Il great measure blightcd
her fruit crops. The English people who
depend so much on their native fruits, felt
the necessity Of looking to other countries
to supply this deficiency. Knowing how
full our country was OF this fruit the En-
gliSh merchants endeavored to induce their
American correspondents to ship apples.
in quantities, as an experiment. The re
suit was that some 10000 barrels found a
market in Liverpool, the varieties shipped
being principally Baldwins, pipplns, rus
sets, and other good keeping fruits. The
result was that our American apples are
not only well received, but acknowledged
TO be even better than almost any English
variety. In 1876 England's crop was
again Il failure, while we We're favored

a million barrels. And better still, the
profits were such as to give general salts
faction, and convince u 5 that this was a
new and valuable feature In our export
trade. Last year Great Britain's crops
were rather better, while ours were hardly
more than enough to satisfy home con.
sumption; but, in spite OF these obstacles,
over 10000 barrels OF all varieties of fruit
from the American market, We're sold in
England to good advantage. This mum.
Der included many from the West the

larger growers are making extensive pre-
parations tor shipping through to Emope,
from the knowledge that England's crop

crs, who are never slow to take advantage
of new ideas, especially when they lead
to an increased demand for American pro-
ducts, will no doubt be interested in these
details, and give this matter the attention
it deserves. Other countries are begin

was noticed that, being unable to reach

rejoice at what they regarded as an almost
