WARRINGTON, Jan. 19.-There is no
authority for the published statements
that President Hayes is opposed to leg
islative enactments for the restriction of
Chinese immigration, and that he be-
lieves the only proper way to prevent
Wholesale Mongolian immigration is by
means of treaty stipulations. The pres
ident fully recognizes the power of COM
gress to legislate on this subject in con-
fict with treaty provisions, and in case
congress manifests willingness to take
the short and certain road for the at
tainment of the relief and protection
desired, he is not at all inclined to in
terpose any obstacle to the exercise of
this power. He would, nevertheless.
for obvious reasons. prefer that re-
strictive action should be taken by the
Chinese government, if possible, or that
China should formally acquiesce in
such action on our part. In accordance
with this view. he ia disposed to think
it would be wise and proper to immedi-
asely invite the attention of the Chs
nese government to the subject through
diplomatic channels. without thereby
waving the right to resort either coins
cidentally or prospectively to the other
method of action if congress considers
it necessary or advisable.
Boston, Jan. ia demonstration Of
unemployed workingmen of Boston on

Mayor Pierce, who replied that he had
no authority to offer them employment,
but that the city council would do what
it could for them.

LONDON, Jan. 18.-No news has been
received from Suleiman Pasha. Har,

said to have arrived. is an important
point on his line to Adrianople. If the
Russians have gained that point before
him he not only has Gen. Gourko's

probable a proclamation will be issued
with reference to the incipient insur~
rection which now prevails in the city

THE cHuRCHEs SUNDAY.
MErHon1sr PROTESTANT cHuncH.

METHODIST PROTESTANT CHURCH.
Rev. D. Bagley, PASTOR Morning
subject: i. Cor. -. 81. "Covet earn
estly the best gifts-I show you more
excellent way" After brief reference
to connexion, it was remarked that the
sit will'' do practice. in spiritual things
and natural, as we'll. was reprehensible;
that we should ever ardently desire and
strive for the best; that to attain it,
nothing should be retained as q keeps
sake. for ornament. or fashion; that
darling and self should be got out OF
the way. In Christian work We had to
deal with life, which was nodded by
life, and to be fully prepared therefor,
our lives must be for and in God. It
was observed that this would embrace
growth in the inner man, which would
be manifested externally; that We all
were called to greater attainments and
should put away childish things and be
and see, q it were, face to face with
God.
Evening subject: Prayer of Faith. ;"
This was defined, enforced and illus
trated. the speaker closing with earnest
appeals for all to commence and lead
prayerful lives. which was responded
to by nearly all in the house.
CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH.
Chaplain Stubs supplied the pulpit
in the morning. preaching clear and
able sermon on the subject: "Man, 8
Creature of Two Worlds" The props
osi.ion was a most happy one, and so
stated as to commend itself to every
mind without distinction Of creed. The
idea of the speaker was that the best
life for men was that by which they
pass through this world most credita>
bly, and enter the other most favorably.
But in this world there is constant fail
ure in eome point. None OF Us would
wish to initiate in all particulars any
human life that has gone before. All
human life falls short of the possible
excellence. And how shall this possi>
BILE excellence be compassed? The
Christian doctrine Of Divine aid. of the
indwelling of the Spirit illuminating
the understanding and stimulating the
heart. gives the answer.
In this world we breathe an atmos>
phere that stupe6es; depravity is upon
US as fatal gravitation dragging us to
ward and into evil. Hence, tremend-
ous sanctions. high as heaven and deep
as hell. are applied 10 arouse rs and
keep us awake to the duties and joys Of
this world and to the bliss and glories
of the world to come.
METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCH.
The pastor. Rev. I. Dillon, preached
at II o'clock A. M, from John iii chap,
IA and Is verses. At night Mrs. Chap>
lain Stubbs addressed large congrega.
ton giving explanation of Math NV,
81. 46, and relating briefly her own re-
ligious experience. Hei words were att
tended with much influence upon the
minds and hearts of those who listened
to her. Short addresses followed from
the pastor from Rev. Mr.. Edwards and
from Chaplain Stubbs. Tho services
lasted until late hour, consisting of
prayers, songs and religious testimony.

number of affrays occurred. and this
morning bott of our justices had
plenty of business. In Justice

while yelling and making disturb
ance on the streets. Fined $40 and
costs, and sent up. John Burns, q
recent importation from Victoria,
battered q Chinaman's features, and
was sent up for not paying $40 and
costs. In Justice Snyder's court
two men were tried for fighting about
q dog. As they were not regarded
as being generally quarrelsome, they
were let off with the moderate fine
of S. each, the costs being divided
between them. The fines were paid :,
In the case of Gum King the prose-
cution asked to withdraw the suit,

ing paid.
PARK.-A proposition has been
made by one Of our citizens to the
regents of the Territorial Univer-
sity, to bear one tenth of the ex-
pense of cleaning up and putting in
order the University grounds. There
are ten acres in the plat, and but .
small amount Of money will be re-
quired to remove few trees, and
Law out walks to the different por-
tions Of the ground. This will then
become q popular resort for prone
nades, and for pic-nics. As there is
at present no park in the city, this
could be made to answer that pur-
pose for some years to come. The
regents will get the estimate Of a
landscape gardener. and if sufficient
encouragement is met with, the work
will be begun at once. There are
no funds available for this purpose,
and it will be necessary to raise the
amount by subscription.
A NEW boiler is being built at
Bunene's machine shops for the U.

lous city underwent the only thorough
cleaning she ever had.
The grown and choked-up canals and

Thoroughbred W. Common Sheep.

A farmer in this country who is sup
posed to own as good common sheep as
anybody in this locality, sheared bis flock,
and after weighing the fleeces, found that
each sheep averaged l-2pounds. Take
the whole number of sheep IN this State
and they probably will not average more
than the above. Say that wool is worth
20 cents per pound, the profits from each
sheep will be 80 cents. Take now an esti-
mate offleeces Thoroughbred merino and
Costwold, which will not averge less than
eight pounds per head-the net profits on
each sheep, SLIGO or 81, 10 in favor of the
thoroughbred. will command higher
marketable value. Now, it costs the same
to raise the thoroughbred as the common
sheep; the mutton of one is as good as the
other; the profit of the wool of the thor
oughbred is three times greater than from
the common. Every farmer owning a flock
Of sheep should make it convenient to pur-
chase thoroughbred ram to improve the
quality and yield of his wool. Such an in
vestment will pay.-Lice Stock Journal.

A Living Glacier ira Colorado.


Correspondence Cincinnati Commercial.
We camped one night at very pretty
little lake in the Wind river range. A part
of the members. who can never be still
day or night, not satisfied with their long
days rife, clambered to the summit of the
celebrated Wind river peak, just above us.
They report that they sawDthere a real liv-
ing glacier, just under the peak on the
north side. The snow is considerably
melted on the peak, and Enthusiastically
from the white crust doomed the deep blue
gorges Of a Glacier, banded by seams of
dirt and gravel, following systematic
curves. showing that the center moves
faster than the sides. 1t was an nnexpect-
ed sight, and made quite an excitement in
the crowd. The following morning at s
O'Clock the discoverers, reinforced by the
incrednlous of the party. retraced their
steps, and saw the magnificent spectacle
with their own eyes. 1t is supposed that
this is the first, at least one of the first,
living glaciers ever found in the interior of
our continent.

OverW Ork.

We hear great deal about people being
killed by over-work; but when we hear
that man has killed himself by excessive
brain-work, then we should like the wit
nesses in court SO as to rigidly cross-exam-
inc them. What sort Of work was it?
Was it brain-v ork pure, or was mixed with
anxiety and excitement? What were the
mans habits? Did he indulge over-much
in srimulantS? Did he deprive himself of
just allotment of sleep? Ifall these ques-
tons could he asked and answered. we sus-
pect it would often be found that the man
who is supposed to have died through ex-
cessive mental energy, died rather of want
Of fresh air and exercise. of too much
stimulation, in one form or another, .finan-
cial embarrassment, of late hours, and of
excitements other than those which pure
work breeds in the human brain.
