How CHINESE WoRK.-A San Fran cisco correspondent says of the Chinese that they have generally gone to work where the Americans and Irish had no field or had to abandon it, such as work ing the tailings and gulches we had given up. At this moment the Chinese are the market gardeners of pretty much all San Francisco. They come into town carry ing on their ox-shaped shoulders two enormous loads, Chinese fashion, SUD- ported on the ends of a rod. They will carry in that way as much as horse can pull in cart, and they will stop with their load at every cellar door and make sale of few turnips and carrots.

What Ratter Evidence

could the people ask to substantiate the merits of Dr. Pierce's Family Medicines than the fact that they have not only yearly grown in popular favor in this country, but the foreign demand for them has become so great as to necessi- tate the establishing 8 branch of the celebrated Worlds Dispensary in Lon don, England, that these blessings to the afflicted may be dispatched from that greatest commercial center of the world to every country and people?

 WORCESTER, MASS, Feb. Sd, 1879. DR. R. V. PIERCE
 Dear Sir-With trembling hand, from my extreme age, being eighty five, I write to inform you of the great benefit your Golden Medical Discovery and Pel- lets have been to me. Three years ago I was prostrated with pneumonia, and no one thought would recover. By the use of those medicines I was raised to health, and by the blessing of God and your medicines I have enjoyed pretty good health since, though for years be- fore this I suffered from weak lungs and bad cough. Gratefully yours,
 World. MARY B. FIsK.

Drug Store CuriOsities.

A man recently stepped into drug store and said to the clerk, with the con. fdent air of one who knew exactly what he wanted:
 "Got any roach powder ?"
 "Oh yes," was the bland reply.
 The apothecary threw open glass case, and immediately placed upon the counter in front of his customer bottle of '' Sure Death to Cockroaches.
 "Tel me how it works ?"
 Certainly! You take pinch of the powder between thumb and finger, hold it down near the crevice, and give it a puf-so. It'll be sure to kill 'em.''
 "Kill 'em Heavens The powders for my old woman. Kill lem Not much p and the old man shook his head.
 Inquiry developed the fact that it was Rochelle, not roach powder, that had been recommended for the Gold woman, D and the correct article was soon sup piled.
 A reporter, hearing of this adventure, asked the druggist if many such cases, resulting from ignorance or carelessness, came under his notice?
 "They occur almost daily" was the reply.

A PLAGUE OF DoGs.-Cyprus is afflicted with 8 plague of dogs, which, it is stated, are even more numerous and useless than they are in Constantinople. They infest the various towns and their outskirts, and are at the present time source not only of annoyance but of danger, for the cattle disease which, although diminish ing, still prevails in the island, is said to be propagated from village to village by them. They scratch up and feast upon the buried carcasses of the animals that have died of the disease or have been slaughtered on account of it, and after ward drink at the troughs where the cattle are watered.

A Nihilist Newspaper.
PRINTING UNDER DIFFICULTIES.


 The WiU of tue People is the title of the organ of the Nihilists in Russia. It appears in the most extraordinary way ill unexpected corners, and when least looked for. They say that it is constant ly to be found on the toilet table of the Emperor and under the pillows of states men and generals. The manner in which this curious organ is printed is described at length by the St. Petersburg core spondent of the Manchester Guardian
 The office is gloomy, miserable room at the top of 8 house in poor locality. On the door is an announcement of some fictitious trade. The room is occupied by poor wretch, formerly student it is wretchedly furnished. The bed occu- pies pretty nearly the entire room.
 Everything is mean and squalid. The owner of the apartment is editor, con- positor, reporter, printer and publisher.
 Under the mattress of the miserable bed the type is hidden. Thence, when occa- sion offers, 1t is transferred to the multi tudinous pockets of his great coat. He goes out into the streets with diminll- tive note book, hangs about public build ings, glares at people in authority, whom he would kill if glance could murder,
 writes his C leaders , in secluded cor ner of park, and rolls each page into a pill to be swallowed on the approach of policeman. As soon as the work is finished he steels home, locks and barri- cades the door, gets out his type and sets up the paper, which he afterwards prints in @ primitive manner, and dis tributes through the streets, and ill cafes, and by all other means known only to conspirators. This account of the difficult, dangerous and painful duty which that poor patient scribe performs under the direction of an memorable com mittee, from whom he receives little help, may or may not be in accordance with truth but there remains the un- deniable fact that under the very nose of the terrible Third Section, despite all the vigilance of the police, sheet is printed,
 published and circulated, and no man can put his hand upon those who thus contribute to the literature of revolution.

RETR1BUTIeN. - Virginia is a State where they believe in retribution as soon as convenient. In Smithfeld bar-room the other night two colored men were drinking together, when one of them began to be stupidly drunk. The other robbed him of $3.3O, and began to drink some more. In about an hour he was drunk, too, and the first negro, having had nap, was sober enough to rob the robber, getting back his own $3.3O and taking a considerable pile of money besides, in fact all that there was in his companions pocket.

THEY were sitting about the stove at the grocery listening to the yarns of an old sailor, and the ancient mariner had just remarked, "The next we tackled was right whale, and it was an ugly one and stove all three of our boats and killed the second mate, "when a sad eyed man in the corner timidly observed, "It seems to me that instead of @ right whale you tackled wrong whale." And then they all rose and walked out in Indian file, and the ancient mariner was so mad that he tried to kick saw horse and parked his shin in nine places.

LONDON, January -.
The most intense excitement was occa-
stoned on Sunday by d sensational scene in
the Holton Garden Church. While the
priest was celebrating mass, a man fired a
pistol at him. The church was crowded,
and the noise caused a serious panic. The
altar was struck by the bullet, and subse-
quentiy flames started out from the side Of
the altar, and the church was damaged to
the extent OF FLO, 600. The man was ar
rested, after a hard fight, by the police,
and when taken into custody had a long
stiletto in his hand, with which he attempt
ed to stab those VITO seized him.
There is q rumor about town to the

The SENTINEL made reference q few days
since to the inaugural ceremonies at the
capital Of New York. The retiring Execu-
tive was highly complimented by his sue
cessor. Governor Cornell, among other
things said 4" For twenty years You have
occupied an influential position in the
councils OF the State. Chosen repeatedly
to the Legislature, and for several terms
elected Comptroller, you served with such
steadfast ability as to win promotion TO the
executive Office by an unpreeented vote.
As chief magistrate you have vigorously
and feariessiy exercised your official pre-
negatives, and given your administration
high rank with those which have preceded
it. Permit me to congratulate You upon
the honorable record you have made for
yourself in the hnnals Of the State, and to
express my cordial wishes for your con-
tinued health and prosperity" And yet
such a man, with such . splendid record
is beaten by Democratic votes when q can
didate for reelection. An honorable re-
cord as an efficient public servant, goes for
naught with Boss Kelly and his Tammany
followers. The man who does not obey
the behests Of John Kelly cannot succeed
in New York. Truly may it be said that
the Democ attic party Of the leading State

The Republican journals Of Pennsyl-
vania are becoming more and more dis
satisfied with Don Cameron's Fourth of
February State Convention. We nave two
leading Philadelphia papers on our ex-
change list. and both Of these are s'kick-
ing" vigorously. We shall not be sur
prised il Grant loses the Pennsylvania
delegation through Don's attempted sharp
practice. The cry Of snap judgment has
been raised, and the result must be DANA
ging to the cause that had recourse to it.
The Philadelphia Press protests as follows:
The extraordinary action of the Repub-
hcan State Committee in fixing SO early a
date for the State Convention is provoking
discussion, as it deserves to. There was no
justifying reason for the haste shown. And
Ii cannot but lead to mischief. The intel
ligence Of the Republican party will not
permit such Q violation of usage and fair
play. II nothing else can be done. it will
protest against snap judgments" and
tricks which involve q denial Of the right
Of the voter to be considered and con-
suited. The exigency of the party is such
Is to require the best Judgment of its cool
est and most unselfsh men; and the times
are not propitious for schemes which pre-
clude debate and shut off consideration.
In the resentment which this act has
caused, some infemperance of speech has
been INDUCED. Yet the fact remains that
the Republicans Of the State are amazed,
and outraged at the manifest effort to has
ten the decision Of grave questions which
ought not to be hastily decided, and which
cannot now be as wisely decided as they
could be two months hence. The pretexts
given to justify this unprecedented haste
are pitiful and are unworthy Of considera-

fancy occurred, and there is no good rea-
