How High Chinese Dignitaries are Treat
ed in New York ..

The Chinese Embassy, his Excellancy Chin
Ian Pin; the Ambassador Chin Sung Ling ;
Secretary Shin Ize Tung; Assistant Secretary Ho
Shen Chi. Ting Tan Chang, Len SeOng and Chen
Mob, accompanied by Captain Felix III.
March, arrived in this city from Washington
thinking that by coming here they would avoid
the annoyance Of the bot summer in the Capital.
Here. however, they have met with other annoy
ances. by reason Of which they will shorten their
visit. When they arrived they took quarters at
the Fifth Avenue Hotel, but desiring to live more
privately, hired the house No. 81 West Thirty
first street, where they have been subjected TO
public insult, and even assaulted by the dwellers
in the Twenty-ninth precinct who crowd around
their carriages whenever they venture abroad,
and have behaved so Outrageously that some of
the members OF the embassy have determined not
leave the house until they return to Washington.
Daring July, while his Exeellency Chm Ian
Pin was driving home after visits to some foreign
and resident officials in this city, his carriage
was followed down Thirty-lourth street from
Sixth avenue by number of loungers, who pelt-
ed 1t with stones and hooted at it. The driver
whipped his horses up and drove past the house,
being afraid to stop. The next assault was upon
the Secretary, who was out driving. and occurred
about week later on Broadway. Rubbish and
garbage were thrown into the carriage, striking
both Of the occupants and soiling their clothes.
On neither of these occasions did the police in
terfere. About the beginning of August Ho
Shen Chi and Ting Fang Chang went out for
walk at about O'Clock pm. the former being
then in the city for the first time. They went
up Broadway far as Thirty-third street. and
crossing, turned down Sixth avenue. Here one
of the crowd tried to trip up Ho Shen Chi and
struck him on the back. He is tall, heavily
built man, and grasped his assalant, holding
him until policeman came up. When he made
complaint, the officer only said (: ''Oh, he didn't
mean any harm" Ho Shen Chi accordingly let
the man go, saying to the officer at the same
time, You know your duty. leave it to you
Since thaS time the Ambassador and bis assist
ants have been subjected to continual insults,
at their own doors. At No. q, last night, one of
the attaches said, al have been afraid to go out

OUR CORRESPONDENCE.
IN MEMORY OF HENRY SAMMON,
Killed in Pekin Mine,
Monday, January 26M, 1880.

Sad, sad tidings / have to pen;
Their dire effects exceed my ken;
Impartial death has come again,
Scattering sorrow through our glen.
His secret course he still pursues;
Our mining caves he often views;
There crushing hard beth young and old,
Then leaves them lifeless, stiff and cold.
On Monday last he took away
A bud of promise, blithe and gay,
Whose tender years did seem to say
You've merely seen life's waning day.
Ephemeral are our days at best
Mere human life is short bequest;
A stepplng-stone across the stream
Where mortals vain no longer dream.
Henry has gone; he'll no more play
With neighbor-mates on life's highway;
No more he'll travel up the hill
His brothers. cars to load or fill.
His schoolmates all must bid adieu;
He won't be present at review;
Wont help them more at school to play;
His tasks are flnished-he's away.
His loving parents will miss him sore,-
His frequent laugh and mirthful roar;
Grim death has changed their joys to grief
Their future hopes have ended brief
Such is life; we travel on, on
Until we reach the poets bourne,
Where scenes are new, beyond our ken,
Where beings guide who once were man.
Farewell, dear boy, farewell awhile,
Bright hopes suggest, with angel smile,
That youthful forms may guide us through
Those scenes celestial now hid from view
MACK.

Distressing Mining Accident.
PEKIN, Jan. 29th, 1880.

PEKIN, Jan. 28th, 1880.
Mr.. Editor Il thought it would
meet your wises to write you an &C.
count of this sad disaster. I will
give them in as brief a manner as pos
sible.
The three sons Of John Sammons
were at work in Pekin mine on Mon
day cross-cutting pillar. They had
driven it far enough to require wind
ing the road after them. Some un-
forseen slip had just been cut by the
older brother, whilst the young one,
Henry, was filling the car with a
shovel, preventing them from hearing
any warning sound. The third broth
er was engaged outside at the road.
So, without even hearing any sounds
of danger, away came the entire un-
propped roof, from ten to twelve
square yards Of coal-about as much
as fills four or Eve cars. The young
est brother was instantly killed and
buried under the roof coal; second
brother covered all but his head, but
the mining car saved him from being
mangled like Harry. The doctor says
he will recover. Third brother was
far enough away to escape. The
wind from the fall put out his light
| and it was considerable time be-
fore the men could be summoned to
the rescue. You can imagine what O

A COOP BRIDGE.-Messrs. A. E.
Hitchins, A. ]. Clark and Henry Her.
gott, county commissioners, examined
the new iron bridge over GeorgesCreek
at Westernport on Wednesday. The
opinion of Messrs. Cromer and Hughes,
resident builders, being asked, they
pronounced it first class bridge.
The commissioners will doubtless
so report to tie Board. 1t is built upon
principle new in this section, which,
it is claimed, is superior in several
important particulars.
A word to the good people of West
ernport, The county hasjust expend'
ed a large sum of money for their
convenience, and it is not too much
to ask them to watch the bridge vigi-
lantly. and when attention, or repair,
is needed, to inform the county COM
missioners, Let the taxpayers, or any
taxpayer, write to the Board stating
such fact, that the remedy may be
applied while comparatively mex
pensive. Care of this character Of
the public property shown by taxpay-
ers would save large amounts to the
people, and they owe it to themselves
to do all they can in this respect
Apropos, we learn that the new por'
ton of the bridge over the Potomac
at Westernport, built only two years
ago, needs tightening, etc. A little
work done now might save good
deal hereafter, leaving the matter o
peril attending such conditions out o
the question.

IT reported that the Mines Com
mission has recommended to the
Governor and Legislature a repeal
Of the mining law. This carries with
it the abolition Of the Office of Mine
Inspector. This recommendation is
said to be supported by the testimony
Of numerous miners to the effect that
the law is imperative and worthless.
We trust these reports are untrue.
The law may be imperfect in many
particulars, but we have it from hon
est authorities that it has effected
considerable good, especially in the
reform Of weights. Anyhow, "a bad
law is better than no law" and the
repeal Of the present Act should GER
tainly not be so entire as to do away
with either the Inspector or the
weight clauses. As to ventilation
and props there is such a wide diver
sity Of decided opinion among miners
we are not able to determine between
them. But with an impartial, cspa-
BILE, fearless Inspector, we cannot see
why the existing Act, properly amend
ed if necessary, cannot be administer.
ed to the mutual benefit of companies
and miners. A total abrogation OIL
the law, however, would be matter
to be greatly regretted. and all it,
friends should in some sensible man.
nsr contest vigorously against it be-
fore the Legislature.
