The Tro,sbadomrs Last Night.

Inc 1TOuOUuVNTO Auot NeDsees
A large audience greeted Salsbury's Trou-
badours at the Opera house last evening,
when the musical extravaganza "The Brook"
was given to the great enjoyment of all pres
emit. It is very laughable- compendium of
nonsense, the principal characters being three
actors at reception and afterwards at a pin
mic, with two other characters, Col. Mont
rose and his son Percy. It is bundle of
,absurbties from beginning to end, the effect
depending largely upon the vivacity, musical
ability and mimicry of the artists. They were
all exceptionally proficient in these respects,
and from the rising0f the curtain to its fail
kept the audience in a continual roar of
laughter. Miss Nellie McHenry was living
example of perpetual motion, her lively sallies
of wit and her naive antics winning for her
the applause of all. Miss Ray Samuels
is an accomplished vocalist and very prof.
Gent actress, while the three gentlemen in the
cast, Messrs. Salisbury, Webster and Stedman,
gave their lady com panions a very efficient
support. No more langhable entertainment
has been given at the Opera house for years.
Nearly ali the musical selections were heartily
encored. Tonight the engagement will close
with "a new three act comedy
by Bronson Howard entitled "The. Amatuer' S
Benefit" which is said to be quite as laughable
as "The Brook" They deserve and I'M
doubtedly will have crowded house.

of the east coastIof Asia and the islands
contiguous to it.. driving the English,
French and Dutch vessels from that
portion of the seas. The plan has been
to purchase first-class vessel built on
the Clyde, and to use her as model for
other craft built in the flowery kingdom.
There is an abundance of excellent
ship building timber to be found along
the coast and the rivers of
China. The people have the faculty Of
reproducing anything that may be placed
before them as model, and they work
for mere pittance. They are conse-
quently enabled to build ships for one
half of their cost on the Clyde, and to
man them at comparatively little ex-
pense. BY carrying freights and passen-
gers for one-half what their competitors
are able to carry them, they have secured
practical monopoly of the carrying
trade of the east coast of Asia.
By ratifying the commercial treaty al
luded to the Senate of the United States
has introduced this ruinous competition
of Chine cheap labor upon the High
seas. 1t has sealed the death of the line
of American steamships plying between
San Francisco and Chinese and japanese
ports, for neither importers nor exporters
will consent to pay an American compa-
ny double the freights asked by Chinese
company. The Americans may be able
to compete for time, but they will have
to succumb eventually, for their seamen
will have to be paid and other expenses
met that do not enter into the bill of costs
of the Chinese company. The result
will be that this small remnant of Ameri-
can commerce will be driven from the
seas, and the carrying trade between this
country and the orient will, ere many
years, be conducted in Chinese bottoms.
Part of the risk of such result might
be removed if the existing restrictions up
on ship building in this country were re-
moved. But of this there is little hope as
long as the Republican party remains in
power. Though ship building has be-

owing to our absurd and suicidal tariff
system, the scales have not dropped from
the eyes of those who have brought
about such deplorable result, and they
will continue to uphold the system until
the last vestige Of American commerce
has disappeared from the seas. Within a
year the effects of the new Chinese treaty
of commerce will begin to be felt, when
there will be an universal howl of indig-
nation all over the country and demand
for the abrogation Of the treaty. But
treaties between nations are easier made
than abrogated, and advantages are lost
more easily than they are regained. This
will be soon discovered, and the Senators
who ratified the treaty will regret their
haste and want of consideration about the
time they find the Chinese flag floating in
every seaside port of the United States and
fast monopolizing our foreign trade.

Piles.

Piles are fir equently preceded by sense OF
weight in the back, loins and lower part of
the abdomen, causing the patient to suppose
he has some affection of the kidneys or neigh
boring organs. AT times symptoms of ind-
gestion are present, as latuIency, uneasiness
of the stomach, etc. A moisture like perspi-
ration, producing very disagreeable itching,
particularly at night after getting warm in
bed, is a very common attendant Internal,
external and itching piles yield at once on the
application of DR.. Bosanko's Pile Remedy,
which acts directly upon the parts affected, alb

you cannot obtain it of him, we will send 1t

CHINESE TREATIES,

Two treaties with the Chinese nation
were ratified by the Senate last week;
one treaty restricting the immigration
of Chinese to this country; the other Civ
ing the Chinese certain commercial privi-
leges not heretoforeenjoyed-- placing them
upon an equality with other nations as far
as international commerce is concerned
The treaty as to immigration gives the
United States Congress the privilege of
determining precisely how many celestials
shall be permitted to land on our shores
for permanent residence. There was no
objection to it at Picking, for the emperor
is anxious to prevent the emigration of
his subjects, as are the most extreme
anti Chinese in this country to prevent
their immigration. 1t may therefore be
said with truth that both governments
are pleased with the treaty, and that both
will labor to render it effective.
In the confirmation of the commercial
treaty it is to be feared that this country
has got the worst of it. AS stated it
places China upon an equality with the
most favored nations of the world in the
matter of commerce. The fact appears
to have been lost sight of by the Senate
that within the past ten years China has
become one of the foremost maritime
powers in the world. During that time
& has purchased and built a feet of mer-
chant vessels that will compare favorably
with that of England. and has already
secured practical monopoly of the trade
