THE outer satellite of Mars is described
as being of red color, like the planet
itself, by Mr.. Common, a fellow OF the
Royal Astronomical Society, whose OBJ
servatons have been made with an eight
een-iuch silver-glass rejecting telescope.
Both satellites are now invisible, and will
remain so till the autumn of 1870, when
they may possibly he detected with the
best telescopes. After that, ten years
must elapse during which there is but
little probability that they can be seen at

FAMILY FAILlS6S.

Tn late Lord Lyiton observes some
where ip one OF his novels that if you no.
tice a saliant fault in one of your own
blood you ought to be on your gaurd, for
II is ten to one it is latent, ii not partly
developed, in your own character. The
remark is shrewd, and probably sound ;
but as tar as our observation goes il has
been utterly wasted. There is nothing
people are less prone to talk about than
their own foibles vet there are few things
they discuss more willingly or with |, -
reserve than the foibles OF their relatives,
their brothers and sisters included. They
discuss them probably with SO much cay
erness because they feel confident they
know all about them. "Melpomene has
such temper" YOU will hear Clio say.
"Sbe ALWAYS had, ever since she was
childn Clio herself. in the opinion of
others, is not immaculate in thai respect;
and, indeed. all the MUSES. of that particu-
lar family can give tongue upon occasion.
Still there Invariably exist traditions in
every house as to the peculiaritIes OF each
particular member of it, and it you could
only listen to the estimates formed Of each
OF them in turn by the rest, You would ac-
quite pretty accurate idea of the tailings
of the family generally. The drawbacks
to this method of studying character is that
brothers sisters and continue 10 repeat the
Judgment they formed of each other in the
nursery and the school-room. though these
may have ceased to be strikingly applica-
BILE. No doubt the strongest part OF any
one is his original disposition. One MEM
Der of family viii be declared by all the
rest to be miracle of inaccuracy. Then
lock for occasional inaccuracy OF stck-
ing kind in al these family critics. They
will be Inaccurate when you least expect
il, thus verifying the truth OF their own
judgment of their own family. II we
could only trace the matter more accurate
ly we should probably find that race fail
ings are as definite and as certain As fam
lily failings; aud ii we only knew all about
a man or woman's ancestry we might
safely be on the lookout for the manltes-
tation of some tribal foibe. National fail
ings are notorious it is amusing to observe
kindred nations exposing their own weak
nesses by DIVE ling upon those of their
cousins.

SYRUP

No other medicine in the world was
ever given such a test of its curative
qualities as Boschee's German Syrup. In
three years two million four hundred
thousand small bottles of this medicine
were distributed free OF charge by Drug
gists in this country to those afflicted
with Consumption, Asthma, Group, sew
ere Coughs, Pneumonia and other diseas-
es of the Throat and Lungs, giving the
American people undeniable proof that
German Syrup will cure them. The result
has been that Druggists in every town
and village in the United States are re-
commencing it to their customers. Go
to your Druggist, and ask what they
know about it. Sample Bottles 10 cents.
Regular size rs cents. Three doses will
relieve any case.

Not all the people of the Hills want q
new territory, if we may judge from the
following item from the Lead City Reg
lister:
The Pioneer of Friday contains a column
local editorial in favor of a new territory.
We say "local" for the reason that the
origin, spirit and purpose Of the territorial
scheme is purely a local affair to build up
and enhance the interests of the town lot
spectators of Deadwood. The people of
the Hills at no time and In NO manner have
expressed their desire for a new territory.
The movent is entirely premature, and It is
wholly q matter of speculation on the part
of the Deadwooders. Next year will be
time enough to agitate for a e territory,
when we can show q more substantial de.
velopment and more central and eligible
places for the capital of q new territory.

MoRToH's LAST.

Views of the Dead Statesman ON the Chi.
nese Question.
Washington, Jan. 1.-THE paper embod-
the Chinese question, submitted to the senate
to-day, is to a considerable extent fragmen-
tary, but the character of the conclusions
reached him ae IN individual member of the
minority of one ofthe congressional commit
tees N Chinese immigration, are clearly
shown by the following synowsis:
American institutions are not arbitrary in
their character, not mere creatures Of force
or circumstance, but are based on the great
and eternal doctrines Of equality and natu.
raj rights, without regard to race or color /;
yet it has taken . hundred years to establish
this doctrine by legal formula in our govern
ment, and there are still large numbers who
do not in their minds admit its truth. 1t is
proclaimed in the declaration Of indepen-
dence, that our country is open to immi.
grants from all parts of the world. While
China and Japan, yielding to western civil
cation, and especially recognizing the force
Of the example and policy of the United
States, have abandoned their policy Of ex-
Guiding foreigners, it is proposed that we
should adopt their cast-of policy, and the
same arguments used at one time in these
cOuutII6 70 JuStlly e4CluSlOu 1Ie tepEOuuCeO
here, viz, that the admission of foreigners
interferred with the trade and labor Of their
people, corrupted their morals and religion.
The strength and endurance Of our govern
ment does not depend ON our material wealth
and prosperity. nor will they be insured
merely by general diffusion of education.
Our only absolute security consists in the
devotion of the masses of the people tn the
doctrines upon which the government was
founded, and the profound conviction that
the rights Of men are not conferred by
constitutional enactments which may be al
tered or a~bolished, but are the natural God
given and inalienable right Of universal
man. Closely allied to this great doctrine,
and in fact its necessary outgrowth, is the
policy which throws open the doors Of our
nation to all who desire to make our count
~ their home. Yet We still retain the right
to prescribe the conditions and created sa6e-
guards to protect Us from pauperism, crime
and disease and to fix the the term upon
which they may become citizens. To rsRu
late immigration and TO prescribe the terms
