An Important and Valuable Industry-Tho
Success Attained by sktllful and Indus
trious Mechanics.
No more gratifying instance of the result of
industry and skill can be found in this grow
ing community than that of Messrs. Mellgren
&Cowham, the engravers and manufacturers of
seals, stamps, ETC., at No. Is East Third street,
St. Paul. Mr.. A. E. Mellgren, the head Of this
firm, came to st. Paul about ten years since
absolutely without capital, but possessed of
its equivalent in good head and skillful
pair of hands, He commenced with small
jobs that he did in his own room. Slowly his
skill was discovered, and he was found to
be so prompt. trustworthy and capable
that it was but a short time before
he was obliged to take shop down town, and
soon atterward to employ an assistant. His
growth was steady and healthful, and he has
just fitted up the ....
LARGEST AND MOST COMPLETE ESTABLISHMENT
of the kind in the Northwest, with the exoep-
ton Of one or two establishments in Chicago.
he has recently taken partner and under the
firm name given above the extensive business il
now conducted. They have ten machines for
executing their work and over $1,000
invested in dies alone. In the front apartment
is q neatly furnished Office, with show cases
containing excellent specimens of all branches
of their work. In this room also the finest
part of their engraving work ia done, but pass
ing to their rear room, where their extensive
machinery is located and their large corps of
skillful workmen are busily engaged, the vial
tor can begin to form some idea of the extent
of the business transacted. Their machinery
is all of the most improved pattern, consisting
of q graver, hammar, msllet, punch,
etc., adapted to the various
branches of their work. Their
machinery cost several Thousand dollars, and
in skillful hands, as it is, gives them capacity
for turning out work equal to any estsblish-
ment in the land. They are the only copper
plate engravers and printers in che State, and
also have the only coin press.
The branches of this extensive business in
| clude the manufacture of seals If all kinds,
hand stamps, rubber stamps, Stencils engrav-
ing on wood and metals, and tho production of
baggage checks, of which they make
! speciality.
They buy all their stock at wholesale.
and are always prepared to fill
the largest orders promptly. Both mon
are skillful workers themselves, and they give
their constant personal supervision to the
establishment. Free from debt and on q firm
basis. they are rapidly developing q great
| manufacturing interest which will soon cause,
even their present extensive facilities to be
greatly increased. It is pleasure to note the
growth and progress of such firm.

THE IDIOTIC NATIONAL BOARD.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 20.-Mr. Frank 8. Davis,
president of the First National bank of Mem
pills. received the following dispatch from
Memphis:
We want one hundred thousand rations for
and can double the number when able to as
sure them we can feed them. Can't do 80 un.
less the government assists. Call on DR.. Bill
ings. national board of health, and Gen. Kew.
to accompany you to see the Hon. Secretary Of
War. We have but little money! no provisions
and twenty-three hundred people now in camp
whom we are in honor bonnd to feed
(Signed> D. F. PORTER,
JOHN JOHNSON,
Committee.
Immediately upon receipt of the above Mr.
Davis accompanied by Gen. Key, called upon
various members of the cabinet. The attorney
general referred his visitors to the national
board of health as the only tody competent to
afford relief, saying that under his
late opinion the secretary of war had no au-
board of health informedMr. Davis that the
board of health could not, under the law, sup
ply rations for people now in camp and Mem
phis, taking the ground that the act of Con-
gress creating the board did not give it author
ity to disburse funds except to prevent the
spread of yellow fever from State to State.
Mr.. Davis suggested that failure to relieve
those in camps and the inability of the Menu
phis authorities to furnish them might result
in their disbanding and spreading the disease
to adjoining States, The reply was that this
was impossible, inasmuch as they had been
quarantined for sufficient period to develop
any traces of infection in their system. The
board of health officials, however, agreed, if
the city were isolated in camp, they would sup
ply rations and tents for reasonable time I'm
less relief is furnished the committee from
some source, great restitution and suffering
will prevail.

RELIGIOUS CELEBRATION OF THE CHINESE
NEW-YEAR+
San Francisco Chronicle.
New-Year's being the greatest festival in the
Chinese calendar, the worship OF the gods and
goddesses is more ostentatious and impressive
on this occasion than upon any other. almost
al1 the deities in the mythology are propitiated
at this season with various kinds Of offerings
sacrifices, and observances, and no one OF the
many imposing and npEessive festivals through
out the year presents a better opportunity of
witnessing Chinese worship. For several days
previous TO NcwTcar's the usual preparations
for the celebration were in active operation; +;
stores were decorated, the cooks in the restau-
rants and elsewhere were exercising their culi-
nary skill in preparing thu most acceptable and
choicest viands, and Chinatown, in fact, was all
hustle and expectancy. The two temples in
San Francisco were visited during the week By i
great many worshipcrs, who had laid offerings
Of artificial flowers cut out of tinsc.-paper and
fastened to THU bamboo splints on the shrine Of
the various diriniiies exposed for worship.
The divinitics not so exposed, for want
OF rooc,,-all necessarily in miniature
we're carefully laid awsy on shelves, projected
by iron wire, some distance in front OF the

suffice to drown ut the Supreme Tribunal tile
cries Of the poor whose hearts have been broken
and whose trust in their fellow-Elcu has been
shaken By this tremendous calamity. Nothing
in the affair is more extraordinary, in fact, than
the amount of sympathy expended on the
"safntIy Archbishop'' and Father Edward, and
the amount Of solicitude expressed for the nos

copatc, compared with tho amount of concern
shown for the unhappy crowd who surrolAd the

The loss or what to large number OF them must

The truth is that nothing in the financial crisis
through which the country is nov passing has

the prudence OF the poor, To create this pru-
denee is or ought to be one Of the chief objects

to be found within its bordcrs. To en-
courage the poor to save, and TO deny them

sense, US it is to raise the character Of the peo-
plc. The result, therefore, OF the panic which is
most to be regretted Is no: the bankruptcy OF
traders and corporations, a1lt the losses OF the
professional classes, serious as these things are,
but the diffusion among tic frugal amt Indus

common-law rule he was entitled to examine
the witness as to his belief in God. Our
statute makes distinction from common law.
1t makes no distinction as to map'5 comDe-
tency as witness because OF his religious be-
lief. but the common law does. H. did not
know how far the United States Courts are
governed By the State laws. /:
lhe Court said 1t was not tpclined to recog-
niZe that com!non-aw uoctrine Is 4 rule OF this
day.. The law would be considered obsolete.
Mr.. Barnes gave the different rules prevailing
in the several States rtdrr the statute law, and
said he could not say what was tue rule of tile
day.
The Court did not doubt what the rule for
ner]y was, but many old rules had been ex-
plodcd. The proposed rulc would exclude
Profs. Tyndali and Huxley RS witnesses.
Mr. Barnes thought otherwise. Hc did not
understand that Prof. Tyntlall was an atheist.
He believed in God, but did not believe In the
efficacy OF prayer. Whcna witness swea:s upon
the Bible to tell the trulh h, the truth must rest
with his conscience to his God.
Tie Court rcassertcd that the rule had be-
come absolctc; il it had not, it ought to be.
The enforcement Of such a rule would be an
outrage-to cut of, by circumstance, very I'M
porrane testimony. The motion would be over
ruled. What do you mean BY an atheist!
Mr. Barnes-I will explain ih moment.
The Court-Yop can put lf. point in any for
mula you choose for consideration hereafter.
