IT KEARNEY has any reflective organs he
may find subject for their exercise in the
fact that the Chinese of Hong Kong haye
sent liberal subscription to the mayor of
Cork to relieve the su fferers by the famine
in ireland. The Chinese in this country
have experienced nothing but in-treatment
from the Irish, and the latter ought to feel
some shame in view of the noble revenge
taken upon them by these pagans of Hong
Kong. II is not the first time, however
that pugans have had the best of it in the
practical application of christian doctrines

A DLSGRACEFUL AFFAR.

On Tudesday last most disgraceful row
occurred on the floor of the House of Repre-
sentatives, one that has not been equaled
since the close of the war; the principal
actors being Mr.. Weaver, of Iowa, late
Greenback candidate for President, and Mr..
Sparks, member of the Illinois delegation.
Weaver had been closely cornered by Mr..
Sparks, who accused him of being tool of
the Republicans and playing into the hands
ofthat party during the last presidential con-
test This he did not deny and was zeal
ously supported by the Radical congressman
in vile and abusive harrangue of the Demo-
Gratis in general and Mr.. Sparks in particu-
lar. After regular bar-room wrangle Mr..
Sparks got the floor and said he wanted to
make statement with regard to the reach
Of his (Weavers) arm, and said it would
have no more effect on him than Weaver
had on the last presidential election.
Mr.. Weaver replied that the gentleman
should be more careful and not get excited
in debate He would assail any man who
gave him the lie, and he wanted to remind
the gentleman from Illinois that his fighting
weight was 1856 pounds.
A scream of laughter and applause from
the Republicans greeted this speech. There
was no signs of gore impending, and the
members evidently thought that Weaver
was in simply happy frame of mind. If
the suspicion of a fight had crossed any
mans mind, it was dispelled when Mr..
Sparks, REFRESHING his rising WRATH quietly
asked "Does the: gentleman say that used
the word falsehood"
$50 l understood" replied Mr.. Weaver
"Oh, no." rejoined Mr.. Sparks, "yours was
| certainly the first offensive word"
"Well, we are all right now" cheerfully
responded Mr.. Weaver. Such, unfortu-
nately was not the case.
"You misunderstood me-" continued Mr.
Sparks. | said that you were stating what
was not true. In applying the term You are
crazy to me you were wanting in the quail
ties of gentleman and you refused to cor
rect It, That was all there was of it, but it
was developed at the last election that you
you were wanting in those qualities"
The members leaned forward over their
desks to listen to the reply and they had not
a second to wait.
81 denounce the gentleman, personally,
as a deliberate liar on the floor of this
Housew shouted the gentleman from Iowa.
You are scoundrel and villain p said
Mr. Sparks.
Intense excitement prevailed, the Republi-
cans taking care of their pugilistic Weaver,
while the Democrats quoted Mr. Sparks
Sergeant-at-Arms, Thompson, at the order
of Speaker Randall, seized his mace and put
a stop to the disgraceful proceedings. Had
it not been for the firmness and decision of
Mr. Randall regular low, rufian/ fist
fight would have taken place. Iowswould
do well to recall this ambitious pugilist and
send some one in his stead, who will respect
his fellow-members even if be lacks that
great requisite for himself.

port, none of that spirit which is so neces-
sary to cultivate immigration, have been ven
tilated by the press or our State authorities.
The difficulty of obtaining labor is begin
ming to be a very serious matter with our
farmers, and such as they are able to obtain
is utterly worthless and unreliable.
The great weight Of the State is what is
principally needed in all matters appertain-
ing to the subject of immigration. Individual
measures help, but WHAT we need most of all
in fixing opinion-fDihe State speaking for
herself. This can be accomplished by proper
appropriation of money devoted to the print
ing of pamphlets setting forth the advan-
tages the State offers to the immigrant, her
mineral wealth and agricultural resources,
her line railroads, the price and quality Of
land improved and unimproved, the produc-
tons of the various sections Of the State,
the price of stock and the expense Of run
ming farms, the nationality of the foreign
element in various sections of the State, the
mills and factories in operation, and the
great water privileges which are now non
utilized.
The value of immigration to country is
now fact beyond dispute. Up to very
late period men were found who, whether
from a feeling of prejudice or an old fogy
idea, were opposed in toto to immigration.
We think that these views have been dis
carded Every immigrant is equal to GER
tain money value, and every thing that in
creases the worth of corstygris an advan.
tage to it. The chief of the eu Of Sta.

The subject of immigration is one which,
in this country, has always attracted great
attention 1t is true that to the people of
the south previous to the war many infiu-
ences were in the way preventing that deep
interest in the subject which was manifested
through the North and Northwest of this
country, and these in great measure pre-
vented that flow of immigration TO our sec
ton.
The principle obstacle was that of slavery.
Ii was an Institution not understood by the
foreigner, nor was it expected that he should
understand it. Under this system the i'm
migrant, acting upon his own strength and
his own responsibility, found himself in con-
tact with labor that he could not and would
not mingle with.
Slavery was great bar to immigration TO
the Southern States, and especially did this
bold true as applied TO the boarder States Of
the South These States possessing advan.
tages greatly superior 20 the Northwest.
whittier the tide Of labor flowed, remained
in an almost primeval condition. Virginia
and Maryland with their vast mineral re.
sources and other great natural advantages
and inducements, inviting the sturdy laborer
Of Europe, as also of the Northern section
Of this country, TO settle within their Dor.
ders, were passed by, and the immigrant
wended his way 10 the wild region az the
unknown West.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 16.-The Sen
ate Military Committee will hold "a
meeting morrow to consider the
case of General FiR John Porter.
The probability is that the full COM
mittee will agree to report back the
bill to restore General Porter to his
rank in the army, and to allow him
his back pay, whichwill amount in
the aggregate to over 100000.
The sub,Committee of the House
Select Committee on the Method of
Electing a President, decided tosday
to report favorably to the full
committee Mr.. Bickndls joint reso-
luton for an amendment of the
Constitution as regards the manner
Of elccting a President and Vice
President The proposed amend,
ment provides that electoral votes,
and fractions thereof, of such per-
son voted for as President in any
State, shall be acerta'ned by
multiplying his entire popular vote
therein by the number of the
States electoral votes and dividing
the product by the sam of all the
votes given in the State for Presi-
dent, and the quotient shall be the
number of electoral votes and frac-
tion thereof, to be assigned to such
person, using for such fraction three
decimals only. The resolution pre-
scribes the manner of counting
votes and determining questions Of
contests. 1t is thought it will be
reported favorably to the House by
a full committee next week.
