The Government had a New Years present
of a subscription OF nearly $9.O00,O00 to the
-four per cent bonds. This is nearly three
times a. great as any previous subscription OF
single day. and is calculated to make Uncle
Sam rub his hands together.
The Rev. Joseph Cook, III an OppOrtuDc pre-
ludc last evening on resumption, gave due
credit for the work that was done in mould

and some of the Western newspapers, and to
those statesmen in the South who held sound

Bald Headed Lovers.

SENATOR wALLACE's SPEECH.
From the Plttsburg Post.

f'o'h fi'sbuik
Senator Wallace made n lengthy
and remarkably strong argumentative
speech in the senate on Thursday, adj
dressing himself mainly to the ques-
ton of the revival of John Adams
federalism in the claim put forth by
Hayes and the stalwarts of the right
and power of the federal government
to dominate over state elections, by
troops and deputy marshals. The
Senator took the bold, strong ground
that the federal government has made
and can make no voters. Ii cannot
add to or take from the qualification
of voter as prescribed by the state
save in protecting him from discrimi-
nation on account of race. When 1t
asserts the power TO create and hold
national elections or 10 regulate the
conduct Of voters on election day it
tramples under foot the very basis of
the federal system and seeks to build
II consolidated government from a
democratic republic. This is the plain
purpose of the men now in control of
the federal government, and to this
end the teachings of leading republiz
cans now are shaped. This position
the Senator maintained by constitu-
tional argument of great power, sup
porting it by authorities from all
sources. We shall publish this argu-
ment rs soon rs received in The Record.
The telegraphic summary is OF little
value, and merely hints at the line
of the Senator's speech. While We
have differed from Senator Wallace
on matters relating to the organization
of the democratic party within the
state, and firmly adhere. to the opinions
heretofore expressed in The Port, yet
We have no disposition to detract from
the ability he shows in the Senate
chamber in discussing political and
constitutional questions. This is his
legitimate sphere OF action, and one in
which he can do credit to himself and
important service to the party.

A Chinese Deacon.

Yesterday morning at 10 o'clock,
All Ching, n Chinaman twenty-five
years of age, was ordained as deacon
in Trinity church, this city. The cere-
mony was of more than ordinary inn
portance, being the first instance of the
kind in this country. The religious
Chinaman, who has taken the name
of Walter G. Young, has been resi-
dent Of this country for fifteen years,
most of that time being spent in the
Eastern States. For the past two
years he has been resident of this
city and has been n student under the
care of Trinity church. Rev. DIR.
Beers, in his address. referred to the
ordination being the first one in which
n native of China, in that connection,
had been admitted to the orders Of the
Church. lie added that the young
man who was now admitted TO the
Order of Deacons had passed far
better examination than the majority
of those who had been candidates for
the priesthood. Right Rev. Bishop
Kip officiatcd at the ordination, and
part of the service was read in Chinese
by the newly made deacon. The
young man has discarded the costume
peculiar TO his race and wears his hair

public faithfully. Jimmy horse, loved

rarely used the whip, carrying it, in

with the lash in the sharp mountain
air. On the morning OF the 9th in

of Butte with coach load of men.
women and children. 4 passenger
sat with him on the box. The stage
swept along the road at a right good
gait and soon the first relay, Girard's.
was reached. There the horses were
changed. Jimmy remarked that the
new horses were not his old friends
but stranger. to him. lie directed the
stableuS~h TO arrange the harness care
fully, as the team was evidently spirit
ed. When all was ready n mischicv-
ous boy called out, Now YOU 90,

one of the leaders with his hand. The
leader reared and shot hcadlong away.
The four horses sprung Immediately
into n dead run. Jimmy threw his
every muscle into the lines. He call
ed out, Steady, down there" for the
benefit of the passengers, gritting his
teeth and bent to his task. The horses
dashed on Mt the top Of their speed
They were crossing level plain and
making dead for narrow gulley,
down which the road ran before it
crossed an insecure, unwalled bridge.
Jimmy fixed his eyes on farm house
in the distance and on his route. He
knew that if he could rein in his hors-
es through several piles of soft grass
shocks near the house he could save
the passengers. He told the men to
be ready to jump a. they ran through
the grass. Take the babies, .said be.
aud as the coach swcrvcd under his
powerful arm and ran in among the
shocks the passengers leaped or rolled
out, some bruised but none badly hurt.
A few minutes later Jimmy's body was
picked up under the bridge from
which the coach had been thrown TO
the rocks below. The poor fellows
legs and arms were broken. The
Montana Miner says that he uttered

4 Quaker Printers Proverbs.

Never send an article for publica-
tion without giving the editor thy
name, for thy name ofteniimes secures
publication to worthless articles.
Thou .hould.t not rap at the door
Of q printing office; for he that answer
eth the rap .necreth in his sleeve and
loseth time.
Never do thou loaf about, nor knock
down type, or the boys will love thee
as they do the shade trees-when thou
lcaycst
Thou shouldst never read the copy
on the printers cases or the sharp and
hooked conlaincr thereof, or be may
knock thee down.
Never inquire Of the editor for news
for behold it Is his business TO give it
10 thee at the appointed time without
asking for it.
II is not right that thou shouldst
ask him who is the author of an arti-
Gle, for it is his duty to keep such
things into himself
When thou dosi enter his office, take
heed unto thysclf that thou dost not
look at what concerns thee not, for
that Is not meet in the sight of good
breeding.
Neither examine thou the proof
sheet for it is not ready to meet thine
eve that thou mayst understand.
Thou shouldst not delude thyself with
the thought that thou hast saved few
cents when thou has secured a dead
head copy of his paper, for whilst the
printer may smile and say it's all
right, he'll never forget thy meanness.
