THE Intelligence which reaches
US as to the scope OF the new treaty
supposed to have been negotiated
with China is very gratifying and
we heartily hope that 1t is also re-
liable. It Is understood that it
provides that no master of any YES
sci owned in whole or in part by q
citizen of the United States, or of
any foreign country, shall take on
board from any port in the Chinese
Empire. or other foreign ports, any
number of Chinese passengers,
male or female, In excess Of the
number Of fifteen, to bring them
within the jurisdiction of the
United States. Any master of q
vessel who violates this clause of
the treaty shall be considered
guilty of misdemeanor, and subject
to penalties to be provided for in
the way Of fine and mprison ment.
1t further stipulates that the mas
ter Of any vessel arriving in the
United States from any foreign
place shall be required to furnish
to the Collector of the district in
which he arrives q separate list OF
all Chinese passengers on board his
vessel. This list shall be sworn to,
and any evasion or misrepresenta-
ton under this stipulation shall
also be considered q naisdem eanor.
The fines imposed upon the mas.
ters are to be considered liens upon
their vessels. The provisions of
the present statutes forbidding i'm
portatlon of coolies and women for
immoral purposes are not affected
by the treaty. No Consul or con-
sular agent of the United States
can grant a certificate to any yes.
sci leaving China for this country
ii she has on board moro than If
teen Chinese passengers. OF course
1t is explicitly stated that the linn
itations do not apply to persons Of
ficially connected with the Chi
nose government, or to persons res
cued from shipwreck. This treaty
will undoubtedly be ratified at an
early day by the Senate, and will
be measure to satisfy all but the
most extreme Of the anti-Chinese
element on the Pacific Coast.

silver and bronze, principally hearts
and crosses, serve to complete the
curious effect. During the last
year several large pilgrlmages ar
rived, and on one feast day there
were 1000 strangers ct the shrine,

awaiting somebody on this side Of
the continent. Writing to an
Eastern paper the Captain says
that there Is buried treasure on
Cocas Island, off the Pacific Coast.
An old man is living in that place
who has been to the island twice,
and he returned both times with
about all the specie he could carry
on his person. This 10 to the GER

times he started in busin ess, but
being uneducsted and unac-

over 20 years Of age, quite respect
able, and no one In North Sydney
doubts his word. Some years ago
q party Of merchants In st. Johns,
Newfoundland, fitted out q vessel
and sent him out In her. Two
shipmasters took an interest, and
both accompanied the expedition
