BY the time Col. Haskins concluded the
hour was already approaching half-past ten,
but still the audience remained, and the chair
man asked their attention for five minutes
more, while Col. Hooker, the Vermont mem
Der of the National Republican Committee,
should tell them of the committees work and
of the prospect as seen from their standpoint.
Col. Hooker responded and in few ringing
words told of the irrepressble enthusiasm
which greeted Gen. Garfield on his recent
journey through New York State and his APP
pearance in New York city. The great bust
ness interests of the country, Col. Hooker
said are declaring unequivocally for Gen.
Garfield, because they fear the result of
a change, and there has been nothing like
the enthusiasm which prevails throughout
the North since 1910. Maine, Indiana, New
York, Ohio and New Jersey are felt by the
committee to be absolutely sure for the Re
publican nominees.
The military band and Garfield and Arthur
glee club Were in attendance, aud Mr. Max
ham sang a campaign song which called out
a hearty encore.

formed last night ut the Grand Opera House,
is. as much as We could Judge from first hear.

We fail to appreciate Gounods talent as yet In

any criticism Of the performers. 1t will be re-
peated this evening aud We may say something
more about 1t hereafter.

Waterbury's Grand Rally.

"Great tEnthusfasm''-The Champions of
 New Haven's Young Democracy Crate.
 Waterbury had it's 'srousing' Democratic meeting Wednesday evening, when the party magnates of that city let slip the dogs of war on the unsuspecting Republicans, and ''John- ny Morgan played the organ" while "his father beat the drum" Great excitement prevailed, especially to hear the champion orators of the young Democracy of New Ha- ven, Judge Bly1enburgh and Editor Parsons, who had been specially imported for the oc- casion. First the swarming populace raised Hancock and English flag, or more proper ly speaking it was ''thrown to the breeze" while the band discoursed lively music. ''Sou1 stirring cheers' were added also, and then 'led by the band, the multitude march ed to the Green, and to the number of 5000 or A. 900 pressed around the speakers stand" It was thrilling Judge Blydenburgh charmed the audience with 'fone of the judge's most happy efforts.'' 'fWe were now returning" he said with poetic finish, ''to the style of the men in the early days of the republic, who placed Washington in the chair of the State. We have returned" the Democrats had as ''they had nominated Hancock, man whose personal character was as pure and spotless as his record" This makes very pretty reading. MT. Parsons of the Reg ister, then sailed in and not only put in the ''pure soldier', 'dashing soldier' and Bother endearing terms, but claimed Hancock for practical statesman of the highest ability" And then the eagle screamed.

Japanese and Chinese.
 From Scribner,s.1

Comparing the Japanese and Chinese stu dents now enrolled in American schools and colleges, several marked contrasts and like nesses are made evident. The most promi- nent difference in respect to external charac- teristics is the greater readiness with winch the former adopt the dress and manners of the Western world. The Japanese dresses la European, and in excellent taste the Chi naman still braids his cue, and wears his loose trousers blouse. The Japanese is more easily denationalized the Chinaman is constant ly impressed with the duty of loving and serving the land that gave him birth and is giving him education. The latter learns the English language with greater ease, and uses it with greater facility the former, after a residence of even five or six years, expert ences, in the case of not few individuals
 difficulty in conducting an ordinary conver- sation. Both manifest much deference to au- thority and are models of decornm and po- likeness. The Japanese belongs relatively to higher caste; the majority of the Chinese students are from the middle class of the em- pire. In mental characteristics the contrasts are less marked than in physical The excel lencies and the defects of the two types of mind are similar. In each the memory is de- veloped to degree not commonly attained by an American school boy; and the Chinese draw forms and figures which they have once seen with marvellous accuracy. The superior development of the memory seems to weaken the growth of the logical faculties; and a difficulty in conducting processes of thought of ordinary intricacy is one of the first defects which a teacher notices in their mental con stitution. Intellectually, both are clear sighted rather than far-sighted; and are dis tinguished for exactness in thought and state ment Considered as whole, the Chinese make more rapid progress in linguistic, and the Japanese in mathematical, studies. The former are by temperament the more passive
 the latter the more impulsive. Both are first, maintain a creditable stand in their classes. In respect to moral character, also, as well as intellectual, high degree of simi- larity is obvious. Neither, as body, is ad- dicted to the use of liquors or of tobacco, and both are free from the vices to which Ameri- can college youth are somewhat subject.
