THE FEELING AGAINST CHINESE

From the opinion Of Mr.. Justice Field on the
Queue ordinance
We are aware Of the general feelng-amountng
to positive hostility-preyang in California against
the Chinese, which would prevent their further i'm
migration hither and expel from the State those
already here. Their dissmilarty in physical char
acteristics. in language manners and religion would
SEEM from past experience to prevent the POSSIBLE
ity of their assimilation with people. And
thoughtfui persons. looking at the millions which
crowd tho opposite shores of the Pacific. and the
possibility at distant day of their pouring
vast hordes among giving rise to fierce antag-
onisms Of race, hope that some way may be devised
to prevent their further immigration. We feel the
force and importance OF these considerations: but
the remedy for the unprecedented evil is to be sought
from the general government. where except in cer-
tain special cases. all power over the subject lies.
To that government belong exclusively the treaty
making power and tho power to regulate commerce
with foreign nations. which includes intercourse an
well traffic. and. with the exceptions presently
mentioned the power to prescribe the conditions of
Immigration or Importation of persons. The
State In these partic with the exceptions men,
toned IL powerless, and nothing IN gained by the at
tempted assertion OF control which can never be
admitted. The state may exclude from its limits
paupers and convicts of other countries persons in
curably diseased and others likely to become bur
den upon its resources II may perhaps also exclude
persons whose presence would be dangerous to its
established institutions. But there its power ends.
Whatever IL done by way OF exclusion beyond this
must come from the general government. That gov
eminent alone can determine what aliens shalt be
permitted to land within the United States and upon
what conditions they shall be permitted to remain;
whether they shall be restricted In business transac
lions to such appertan to foreign commerce, is
practically the case with our people in China.
whether they shall be allowed to engage in all pur-
suits equally with citizens. For restrictions neces-
ssry desirable in these matters the appeal must DO
made to the general government and II is not be-
leved that the appeal will ultimately DO dlsregarded.
lie that as It may, nothing can be accomplished In
that direction by hostile aud spiteful legislation
the part OF the State OF its municipal bodies like
that of the ordinance In Experimentation which
is unworthy OF brave and manly people. Against
such legislation IL will always be the duty OF the
judiciary to state and enforce the paramount law OF
the nation.

account of the introduction of American vines into

American vine. and concluded that 1t of q more
hardy nature than the Spanish vine and therefore

The Worlds Child Magazine

John Greenleaf Whittier, the most
child-hearted as he is among the fore
most of American Authors, writes of
ST. NICHOLAS: at is little to say of this
magazine that it is the best child's peri
odical in the world" Prof. Proctor, the
astronomer, wrote from London: "What
"a wonderful magazine it is for young
folks, and ours are quite as much de-
lighted with it as American children
can be~ That it is calculated to de-
light the little folk everywhere is indi-
Gated by the fact that it is to be issued
in French by Delagrave of Paris and
that even the far-away little MOSlemS
are now to have a volume made up of
translations from st. Nicholas into
Arabic by the Rev. H. H. Jessup.
Beginning with the November num-
ber (ready Oct. 25th) the magazine is to
be printed on heavier paper with wider
margins, and is to be so much enlarged
that the new volume will contain near
ly two hundred more pages than any
former volume, while the price will re-
main the same. The publishers announce
many brilliant novelties, including a
new serial by Miss Louisa NJ. Alcott, en-
titled Jack and JILL" "The Treasure
Box of English Literature" in which
will be given gems from standard Eng
lish and American authors; an Acting
Play for Sunday Schools, by Rev. Ed
ward Eggleston, which will be printed
in time for the holidays, with full direc-
tions for its representation in school ex-
hibitiOns; and beautiful Fairy Operet-
ia for children entitled "The Sleeping

DAVIS, the Republican candidate for
Governor in the Maine election in Sep
tember last, lacked 534 votes of ma
jority over all opposing candidates,
which is required to secure popular
election. This throws the election into
the State Legislature, which assemblies
in January, the House sending two
names from the four highest candidates
to the Senate, which shall choose be-
tween the two. By this arrangement
Dr. Garcelon was elected Governor last
wear, although he polled but tithe of
the popular vote. The Republicans
have a majority of 81 in the House,
while the Republican majority in the
Senate is but seven. The candidates in
opposition to Mr.. Davis were Smith
(Greenbacker) and Garcelon (Democrat),
the former polling twice as many votes
as the latter. Besides these two, one
Bion iBradbnry, leading Democrat, re-
ceived about 300 votes, although not a
regular candidate, but the champion of
a small personal faction. 1t is probable
that the House, will, however, send his
name to the Senate with that of'Davis.
In accordance with the laws of the
State, the Governor and Council meet
this week to determine what Senators
and Representatives appear to be chO-
sen" on the face of the returns, and send
them certificates of election. AS the
Republican majority in the Senate on
the face of the returns is only seven, it
would only require the counting out OF

The Democratic Purpose.

Special to Cincinnati Gazette]
WASHINGTON, Nov. 17.-Representa-
tive Frye says that it was thought by
the Republicans in Maine a month ago
that the Democratic State officers had
determined to count out enough Repub-
iican Senators and Assemblymen to give
the Democrats control of the Legisla-
ture, and thus insure the election" of a
Democratic Governor. More recently,
however, the Republicans had believed
that the Democrats had given up that
plan. Mr.. Frye now says that he shall
not be at all surprised if the Democrats
carry out their fraudulent programme,
and he thinks, on the whole, it will be a
good thing for the Republican party and
for the country if they do.
AS to the Democratic cry of fraud"
in the Maine election, Mr.. Frye says it
is simply absurd, and nobody in the
State really believes word of it. In
his own city of Lewiston, manufac-
turing town, where, if anywhere, bribery
would be resorted to, Mr.. Frye says the
whole campaign expenses of the Repub-
licans, including torchlight procession,
summed up exactly $3S.
could expect to gain by counting out the
Republican officers, Mr.. Frye replied:
"Well, what did the Democrats expect
to gain by forcing an extra session of
Congress last spring?" As to that per-
fOrmance, Mr.. Frye thinks, the Demo-
Gratis in Congress will have no choice at
the coming session but to adhere to the
programme laid down at the extra ses-
sion, especially that part relating to the
repeal of the election laws. If they back
down from that, they must admit that
they were wrong. "We shall then say
to the country that the Democrats ex-
hausted every device to carry out their
plan, and they showed what they would
do if they could"
The bill to prohibit the removal of
causes from the State to the Federal
courts Is one of the first on the calendar,
and Mr.. Frye says he does not see how
the Democrats can dodge the discussion
Of it. He regards this measure as one of
the most iniquitOus brought forward at
the extra session. If it should become a
law it would make very little difference,
so far as the Southern States are con-
cerned, whether the election laws are re-
pealed or not, if the officers appointed to
execute those laws would be arrested
and left to the tender mercies of the
Southern State courts.
Altogether, Mr.. Frye does not think
that the Democrats in Congress have
yet been taught wisdom enough so that
they will abandon their revolutionary
designs.

So WE HAVE new church to comfort

America. Father Mcnamara, formerly
a Roman Catholic priest of the order
known as the Congregation of the Mis-
sion, has been installed in New York,
Bishop of this new religious .combina-
tion, and in his opening address takes
occasion to abuse rOundly the Church
which he has just left, denouncing it as
sham, fraud, and means of getting

THANKSGIVING.
Proclamation Of the President.

On no recurrence of the season which
the deVout habits of a religious people
has made the occasion for giving thanks
to Almighty God and humbly invoking
His continued favor, has the material
prosperity enjoyed by our whole coun-
try been more conspicuous, more mani
fold or more universal than during the
past year. Also the mistaken peace
with all foreign nations, the general
prevalence of domestic tranquility, the
supremacy and security of the great in
stitutions of civil and religious freedom
have gladdened the hearts of our peo-
pie and confirmed their attachment to
their government, which the wisdom
and courage of their desccndats have so
firmly maintained to be the habitatiOn
of liberty and justice to successive gen
eratiOns;
Now, therefore, Rutherford B. B.Hayes,
President of the United States, do ap-
point Thursday, the 9th day of Novem-
ber, ,instant,as day of National Thanks
giving and prayer, and l earnestly re-
commend that Withdrawing themselves
from secular cares and labors, that the
people of the United States do meet to-
gether on that day in their respective
places of worship, there to give thanks
and praise to the Almighty God for His
mercies and to deYoutly beseech their
continuance.
In witness, whereof, have hereunto
set my hand and caused the seal of the
United States to be affixed.
Done at the City of Washing
