The CHINESE PLANK.-All things csnsid
cred, the Chinese plank in the platform Of the
Republican party, while not as thick as this
coast might like it to b., is strong one and
another step toward delivering the country
from a pest which threatens to become SO
liked an evil as to become ineradicable. The
eastern people cannot see the matter exactly
~ we do, and it is too much to expect tina.
they can look upon the question from the same
stand point As ourselves. The Sacramento
Bee, puts the issue fairly when it says: {" This
Chinese question is enc in regard to which the
Republican party should occupy no eauivocal
position. As political organization it was
opposed to human slavery, and Justly claims
the credit of having been the means of secur-
ing its overthrow, SO far as the blacks of the
South we're concerned. While this was going
on, however, there was being inaugurated on
this coast system Of Chinese slavery, which
has fourished in all these years, and to which
is attributable the Importation of the swarms
Of coolies that infest these shores to-day. To
protect and tester this disguised system Of
human slavery should be no part Of the duty
of Republicans On the contrary, that party
If it would be consistent, and has not lost
its reverence for the glories Of its passed years
should heed the warnings which California
and her sister Pacific States have put forth,
and assume its w0nted attitude on the side of
liberty aud human progress. As party it
cannot do otherwise after full understanding
OF this question. That clearer insight is
being had by our Eastern brethren into the
mysteries Of this vexed problem, however. is
quite evident, and the Republican party. to
be true to its history, should not cease it's ef
forts until the evil growing out Of Chinese slav-
cry on the Pacific coast shall be thoroughly
.esadicsted."

4 Story from Paris.
Philadelphia Bulletin Letter
Correspondence of Chicago Times.

During the last year I was in Paris
heard very pretty story. A party of
merry, bright-eyed American girls were
at Il window looking onto court yard.
Soon seemingly old man crossed the
yard That's the Marquis of X" said
one of the girls. "He lives in garnet
of the house, and lives by giving French
lessons" ''TIl begin lessons with him
tomorrow, then, said one of the young
est girls. And she did so. She soon
perceived that her master was one of
the most polished men she had ever
met He was not over 50. Want and
grief alone had bent him into premature
old age, for he had an aged and sick
mother to keep, which his earnings
could not always do. What did our lit
tie American girl de-? She quietly pro-
posed to marry the Marquis. | need
not tell you how readily he accepted.
This Is the happiest marriage between
a poor French nohleman and rich
American girl that know of. I can
give the number of the house and the
street where the first act of the comedy
took place. The Marquis walks now as,
straight as any one, and the doWager
Marchioness may frequently be seen at
the Bots, sitting by the side Of her bril-
liant daughter-in law, whom, she wor-
ships. rs well she may.

dropper, and sailed down, the stream
with the end of the fly training behind
her. She had not proceeded far before
trout of about a pound and half
took the fly efectually. Then again a
struggle as extraordinary as ever was
Witnessed duck at the dropper and
large trout at the end Of the fly.
Whenever the trout exerted itself the
terror of the duck was very conspicuous
it futt.red its wings and dragged the
fish When the trout was more quiet
the duck evidently gave way and suf-
fered herself to DE drawn under some
bushes, where the shortness OF the line
did not allow the trout to shelter her
sell. The ducks head was frequently
drawn under the water. By chance,
however, the line got across o. branch
which hung downward into the water;
and the duck taking advantage OF the
purchase which this gave her, dragged
her opponent from his hole and obliged
him to show his head above water:
Then it became a contest Of life and
death. The trout was in its last agonjes
and the duck in very weak state,
when the line broke and suffered each
to depart its own way.

\ Sinking Continent.

The question whether the South
American continent is sinking or not is
one on which considerable difference OF
opinion exists. Prof. orion several
years ago expressed the belief that the
barometric observations of the heights
of the principal mountains, which have
been continued through more than a
hundred years, afforded evidence of Il
gradual sinking and this opinion has
prevailed extensively Prof. Agassiz
believed that the eastern coast was
sinking while the western coast was
rising and Darwin infers from the dis
covery of an ancient race of civiliza.
