Mrs. Arnold. the sole surviving sis Ter of 60 StOnewail Jackson, now
 lives at Buckhannon, West Virginia.
 She was throughout the war a faithful
 CniOuIst, although every member of the family except 0ne-a young nephew-was a seCessionist. For her brother she entertains the reverence of an undyiug love and affection, and she insists that it was with extreme reluctance and profound misgivug that he took up arms against his coun try. He declared he would not % outside of Virginia to fight; he voted against the ordinance of secession in old Virginia, and urged his sister to use her influence to keep West Yir- ginia fast to the Union \ profoundly religious man, he was wont Co say. even after he had taken up the sword '' If we are right, God will bless us; if we are wrong, God will destroy us.

Willie Winters, the dramatic critic ot the New York Tribune, says in a recent article ou Bernhardt:
 Behind the unconscious grace. the melodious elocutioa, the ductile adaptibilIty to ever-changing moods. the soft radiance of shining eyes, the wOOing sweetness of a most dulCet, persuasive voice, the enticiug charm of ingenious ways, and the flash and clangor of conflicting passions, pain ful m their force and keeUly ardent in their eXpression-there is the lava like temperament of strange, exOtIc genius, sleepless, alert, vigilant, for ever consuming itself, forever potent to light in human hearts the spark ut aspiration that makes humanity god like, and SO redeems the cOmmC1nesz of the mortal world.

Three Million Dollars sunk.

Says the Silver State: J. c. Fall has left Unionville for the present, and, we believe, is going to Arizona. He says he spent $3, 0O0, 900 of the pro- duct of the Arizona mine in Union vile. For two or three years past his mining operations did not pay. but he continued Co work his mines and run his mills at loss, and finally had to succumb to the inevitable. Had he found such bonanzas as were de- veloped in the Arizona mine years ago, it would have been otherwise. MT. Fall is a man of indomitable pluck and untiring energy and perse- Verance, and il is a matter of deep re- gret 10 the people of Unionville, as well as a severe blow to the prosperity oi the place that he was not success ful,

How at Obstruction. LONDON, Feb. 26.-In the House of Com mons to-day Chancellor of the Exchequer Sir Stafford Northcote moved resolutions which have been prepared for the purpose of pre- venting the obstructionist policy pursued with such success last session by the Home Rule members. These resolutions provide that after the Speaker shall have called any mem Der to order on the ground of his obstructing the business of the House, the House by vote of two-thirds of the members present may rule that the member so offending shall not be per mitted to speak on any subject during the re- mainder of the session, although his right to vote shall not be interfered with. In moving high character which the House of Commons for great number of years has maintained as deliberative and legislative body, and said that it would be great national calamity if that character should be allowed to sink into contempt through the misguided action of any of it's members. Sir Stafford Northcote, in concluding, said he hoped that the House would accept his resolutions, which would act as barrier to the further progress of an evil which threatened the very existence of the House itself
 The Marquis of Harrington supported the resolution in short speech, in which he said it was perfectly necessary that greater powers be placed in the Speakers hands, and that the course taken by the Government was the cor rect one.
 The debate on Sir Stafford Northcotes res- olutions in the House of Commons was. con- tinued until the House adjourned. It is stated that MT. Parnell has telegraphed to MT. Biggar to oppose Sir Staff ord Northcote's resolutions tooth and nail.

 SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 26.-Many persons who have been supporters of the anti Chinese movement, but whose business interests have been seriously injured by the reactionary effect of the serious agitation in this city, as well as others, frequently express the sentiment that rather than suffer continuance of the evil re- suits of the protracted agitation it would be preferable to have it out once for all, and the sooner the better. The leaders of the work ingmen evidently have no desire to precipitate 8 conflict, and their course to-day indicates that their policy is rather to keep the agitation just at such point as falls short of violence, yet is sufficiently threatening to induce acqui- essence in their desires. This course is danger ous in view of the excited state of the public side into some act that will bring about a col lision. Indeed that perhaps at present is the greatest source of danger.
 The Ninth Ward Workingmen's Protective Club met this evening and organized military company, twenty-five men signing the roll. Some very hot speeches were made at the meeting of the ward presidents this afternoon heretofore referred to. Sheriff Desmond, elected by the workingmen, ,signjfied his inten- ton to support them in this movement. The ward presidents recommended that their seven clubs hold executive sessions to consider the pending question: and pledged the entire party to support the Mayor and the authorities in carrying out the law. The Eleventh Ward Club, which was the scene of Kearney's extra ordinary oratorical effort last night, met this evening again, but with closed doors. Around police headquarters everything is profoundly quiet and there is no unusual force on duty.
 Regarding the case in the United States Court to test the oonstitutionality of the State anti Chinese law, Kearney says they will respect no decision but that of the people, which says, ''The Chinese must go." In case he is assas- snated, he proposes to have list of persons to be guilIotined, as his death would be blow to every workingman and woman in the world.
 A procession of the unemployed, on We'd nesday, waited upon MT. Sharon of the Palace Hotel, who declined to allow any interference with his business.

Mrs. Smith, who was prominent in the movement lately, suggested dynamite for the removal of the Chinatown nuisance.
