Discharging Cargo Of Cinnamon at
San Francisco.

The landing of thousand Cinnamon
on the Pacific Mail wharf creates scene
of most amazing confusion and disor-
der, and presents many curious studies
in life-studies brilliant only in physical
color; dreary and blank enough other
wise. The City of Toxic arrived on
Sunday with 1,040 Chinese Storage
passengers, and having passed quaran-
tine was at once placed alongside the
wharf and commenced landing passen-
gers. The Cinnamon are discharged
from freight portfolio down a gang
plank and into an improvised pen,
where their persons and baggage are
searched by the Custom-house officers.
The pen begins at the gang plank and
includes a space on the wharf about 100
feet long and 25 feet wide, running par
allel with the length of the wharf. On
one side of the pen is the bay; the other
three sides are fenced in by an iron
fence, outside of which and at dis
lance from it of six feet a rope is
stretched. This rope prevents outside
Cinnamon from coming too near the
pen and receiving contraband goods
from the passengers. In the end of the
pen furthest from the gang-plank is a
gate, guarded by two officers, between
whom the Cinnamon pass after their
backs and baggage are properly chalked
by the examining officers. Two hun
dred and fifty Cinnamon are taken from
the ship into the pen at q time. When
all is ready they begin to crowd out of
the portfolio, which is so low that they
must stoop to pass through and ON to
the gang-plank. They crowd from the
inside so in their eagerness to land
that the portfolio is frequently blocked
and impossible, until after vast amount
ofpulling and hauling one of the wedged-
in mass is extricated, and the gorge
being broken, those behind fairly pop
out like champagne corks from the i'm
polling force behind. Each one has his
baggage dashed to either end of bam-
boo pole and slung across his shoulders,
which makes the work of breaking a
deadlock " all the harder. Half way
down the gang-plank each Chinaman is
stopped by special police officer, to
whom some kind of ticket is delivered.
At the foot of the gang-plank coatless
and perspiring Custom-house officer
grasps the stumbling, overburdened
Chinaman by his arm or shoulder and
gives him an energetic push toward the
further end of the pen. Sometimes the
Chinaman is strong enough, or well
enough balanced on his feet to retain his
equilibrium under the circumstances,
but generally he is not, and sprawls cut
on the wharf and is buried under his
bags and baggage. This always gains
the officer round of applause from the
crowd around the outside of the pen.
As they leave the gang-plank officers

Important Prehistoric Discoveries.

A well-known miner who returned
last Wednesday from the valley OF the
Grand River, near the Grand Canyon,
about one hundred and twenty miles
northwest of Kokomo, brought several
specimens of ancient pottery and brick
picked up on the site of reported ancient
mines. The miner is an old pioneer IN
that section, and says that the ruins can
readily be traced there for a space one
hundred feet long by twenty feet wide,
and that they are elevated above the
surface from foot and half to two
feet. The brick is of much better quail
ity than that now manufactured, having
withstood the elements, possibly, tor
thousands of years. The people who
lived before the flood may have inhap'
tied that country, for all that we know
to the contrary. Similar ruins, mainly
circular formations, are found in looalr
ties directly in the vicinity of the can
yons, which either mark the site of an
Gent pueblos or forts, or are singular
freak OF nature. The remains of pottery
found in the vicinity seem to point 10
the conclusion that they were habit@
tons, OF which only the traces remain

excitedly direct the Cinnamon to the
lower end of the pen, packing them az
close together as their baggage will per-
NIT them to stand. Each Chinaman
carries his bedding, extra clothes, shoes.
hats, etc. his entire household goods,
including tin cooking utensils, dried
vegetables of various kinds, drugs, medi-
cines, smoking outfit, and strange and
varied assortment of articles of all kinds
and shapes, packed in baskets, chests,
trunks, bags, bamboo and straw mat
ting, and in every imaginable character
of baggage. As the baggage is tumbled
and dumped on the wharf the Cinnamon
are directed to open it, and, as in its most
compact form it leaves not an inch Of
space uncovered, the untying, opening
and distributing process results in arti-
Giles becoming buried, overlaid, hidden,
lost, and utterly and seemingly mex
tricably mixed. When thirty or forty
Cinnamon have been crowded into the
end of the pen nearest the gate, the
corps of twenty Custom-house Inspect
ors begin the process of "going
through the outspread baggage. What
was confusion now becomes chaos. The
officers walk over the baggage, open
bags and trunks, dive their arms into
the interior ofpackages and scatter their
contents in bewildering drifts. While
this is going on more of the allotted two
hundred and fifty are being packed into
the pen. Every Cinnamon gesticulates
and talks. Every officer explores, sweats
and comments. sHustled on the wharf
in this scene of wild confusion, the Chi
naman without the remotest idea of what
1t is all about, is jerked to the edge of
the mass of squirming fellow-country-
men, unlashes his baggage, opens it,
sees 1t scattered, collects what he can of
it, stands upright to be searched from
his outer garments to his bare skin; is
chalked on his back and told to "git."
The search of their person and bag
gage is very thorough, yet few articles
are coniiscated. Two officers move
about with large bags, into which con-
tiscated articles-some of them-are
thrust. An occasional piece of silk; a
bundle of fans; few packages of to.
bacco, or few silk handkerchiefs con-
stitute the general run of discovered
contraband articles. The search for
opium is unusually strict, even the shoes
on the Chinamen's feet being examined.

The Regicidal Dynamite.

On April 16, in a suburb of St. Peters
burg, there was destroyed by explosion
the black dynamite which has been
taken out of the mine made in Little
Garden Street, and the explosive jelly
with which were charged the bombs
found in the rooms of the conspirators.
Both explosives are the Nihilist prepare
ton. The weight of the explosives was
eighty-five pounds. The experiment
was ma e on a vessel, 112 feet long,
which was sunk during the Crimean
war. Under its bottom, ten feet under
the surface of the water, were placed
four charges; the first charge was thirty
five pounds of the black dynamite; the
second, fifteen pounds of the black dyna-
mite and nine pounds of the cellulose
dynamite; the third, twenty-nine pounds
OF the black dynamite; and the fourth,
seven pounds of the explosive Jelly and
twelve pounds of the cellulose dynamite.
The ice covering the surface of the
water was nearly three feet thick. The
dynamite was exploded by electricity.
In places where the water was cleared
of ice huge columns of water rose, carry
ing along wooden debris of the vessel,
stones, and sand. Shaking of the ice
was perceptible 40 feet from the place
of the explosion. The fourth charge,
containing the explosive jelly, was the
most powerful. The first charge was
not exploded on account of bad arrange.
ment of the conductors. 1t was raised
from the water and exploded on the
open space. The can containing the
black dynamite was placed in snow on
the ice, and it was covered with a stone
weighing about six hundred pounds. and
beam ten feet long and eight inches
thick was placed upon the stone. Two
pieces of the beam, three feet and a hall
long, were thrown in different directions.
One fell 1876 feet away, and the other
800 feet from the place of the explosion.
Smaller pieces were picked up 400 feet
away. The stone was broken into small
pieces, which were scattered.
On the trial Nihilist Kibalchich, the
dynamite and bomb manufacturer, tried
to prove that the quantity of dynamite
and of the explosive jelly put in the mine
was the minimum required to accom-.

VICTIMS TO HIGH ART.
[Air-"A horrible Tale. ~

TAir-"A horrible Tale."1
Oh, a curious tale Pm going to tell
OF the singular fortunes that befen
A family which late resided
In slum by High Art much derided.
They never dreamed of the Weird Intense,
Though a family of undoubted sense,
Till Kyrle Man came with his Tyre and lily,
And drove that unfortunate household silly.
He came, soft caroling "Lo comet
My missions the bringing of beauty homeW
And he opened the door, and he led her in,
A weariful damosel, pale and thin.
With ewes as dusk as the vail of Isis,
Like the incarnation, she seemed of Phthisis
When in he ushered this spectral Psyche,
The family's comment all round was "Cri'

But the hes spell was on them' they stood and
Till their souls grew dim and their sight grew
dazed;
From the youngest child to the father burly,
Their views of life, straight before, grew Kyr-
ley.
The father-he was hearthstone vender-
Strove to make his street. cry as subtly tender
AS a Chopin Nocturne, and pinned to a shade
And ruined his voice, and lost his trade.
The mother-she used to go out to "char''-

In Attic story, but failed and fell
From the attic story, and meier got WELL
The eldest daughter-a worl<-giH plain

And died of High Art and the state of the

And the other children, of whom there were
