conference the Americans said: 1.-THE Chinese
commissioners have in their project explicitly
recognized the right Of the United States to
use some discretion, aud have proposed limi-
tation as to time and number. This is the
right to regulate, limit or suspend" In one
of the conferences he Chinese asked the
Americans whether they could give them any
idea of the laws which would be passed to G. r.
~ the powers into execution. The Americans
answered that this could hardly be done;
"that the United States government might
never deem it necessary to exercise this pow

contrary, there was no large immigration,
or if there were sections of The country
where such immigration was clearly beneh-
cial then the legislation of the United States
under this power would be adapted to such
circumstances For example, there might be
a demand for Chinese labor in the South, and
a surplus of such labor in California, and Con-

said this explanation was satisfactory, that
they had not intended to ask for draft of any
special act, but for some general idea how the
power would be exercised. What had Just been
said gave them the explanation which they
wanted. With this entire accord as to the
meaning of the words they were about to en-
ploy, and the object of the legislation which
might be had in consequence, the parties sign

POLICE POINTS.

St. Patrick's Day was not joyous
enough to have much effect on the
docket.
Thirteen arrests were made yester-
day and lasi night, for petty offenses.
Martin Leonard, arrested for being
a vagrant, was found too i'll to work
and sent to the hospital.
Sidney Lewis hasn't worked any in

to give him little practice by light
sentence.
That crate criminal, Tom Jones, is
still at the stationhouse, no proof hav-
ing yet been produced as to where he
procured the tenders and CRATES in his
possession.
Mary McNary, Sallie Hill and Mrs.
Dirst were fined two dollars each to-
day for having filthy premises.
The rigid course pursued in regard
to the lighting Of street lamps is hav-
ing a good effect. Gas will be lit to-

Old Uncle Aaron Parker was dis

Stock, Etc.

A private letter written from Com
merce. Miss, forty miles below here
on Thursday last relates the following
graphic incidents Of life in the over
flow:
"The people Of this country are not
pestered much with dust, and many
are actually afoat. pass from home
to the store in hatboat or skiff over
about ten feet of water, where in ordl-
nary seasons there is very dusty
highway. :
"A few days ago business called me
to Mckinney Lake, eight or ten miles
south of this by dirt road, and almost
seventeen by river. A companion and
two negro oarsmen made up the
party, and we went in skiff
by way Of Mhoon's Landing,
where we beheld the break in the
leyee, perfect cataract Of water.
I'VE then pulled up stream ON the
inside Of the levee until we reached
Bayne & Johnson's store, which we
found deserted by everything human.
From negroes canped in little sheds
on the portion of levee remaining, we
learned thai Mr.. Bayne had fed with
his family to the gin house, about a
half mile across the field. Feeling
the need of refreshments, we pulled
for the gin house, which we found on
the edge of huge mound, occupied
by Mr.. Bayne and wife, Miss Moore
and Mrs. Greenfield, Messrs. John r.
McNeely, H. j. Mckee, s. D. Bullen
aud ninety-two negroes.
Obtaining what we desired from
Mr.. McNeely, we proceeded on our
voyage, reaching our destination, Mr..
billiards, on Folks & Fizer's planta-
ton without gazing upon land, but in
time to partake hugely Of an excellent
dinner. Soon thereafter we we're on the
homeward track but, alas, for human
expectations, instead of reaching
home, we were overtaken by darkness.
We called by the gin house and pre-
vailed on McNeely Che had key to re-
freshments) to go with us to the resi-
dence lately deserted by Mr.. Bayne,
and passed the night there entirely
surrounded by water and cut off from
the outer world.
There being nothing in the house
except ourselves, and we having been
in drenching rain all day, you may
imagine we we're soon lulled to sleep
by the roaring of the waters through
the levee break just few yards above
us and the humping Of the waves
against the house.
The next morning we started for
home, passing a great deal Of stock
huddled together on patches of the
land and upon little knolls. Many
had previously persisted and others
were rapidly sinking from cold and
hunger.
"Ourstore being depot for govern
ment- supplies, we have been quite
busy for the past week issuing rations
to the sufferers. Many Of these are
quite indignant because Uncle Sam
will not furnish anything but meal
aud meat. They want sugar coffee,
molasseS, tobacco, whisky, and few
have asked for sardines, etc., conf
IDENTIFY expecting to receive them.
Jokes aside, the destruction of life
and property has been terrible, and
suffering great throughout this section,
and you cannot fully realize the con.
dition OF things aud the immensely of
water, without seeing it.

ADJUSTMENTS.


Last night the Rice Surprise Party
and Opera Comique Troupe presented
the humorous opera of "The Mas
cote" to fair audience. The acting
was sprightly and clever, the costumes
rich and attractive, the scenic effects
picturesque, the limbs numer-
GUS and symmetrical, and
the singing tolerable. The
role OF "Betina" was capably filled by
Miss Rose Temple, while Mr.. Eugene
Clark rendered "Pippo"in very salts
factory way. AS Prince Lorenzo, Mr..
Henry e. Dixey proved extravagantly
humorous, and all three received sew
eral recalls. AS a whole the perform
ance was good, and afforded q liberal
fund of pleasure. This afternoon
Cinderella at School" is the perform
ance, and tonight the engagement
closes with the nautical opera Of "Bil-
lee Taylor popular production
never presented here.

The eminent tragedian John Nc.
OullOugh is to appear here on Monday
night in Virginius. His supporting
company include Miss Kate Forsythe,
Mrs. Augusta Foster, Mr.. Edmund
Collier, Mr.. John A. Lane and Mr..
H. A. Laugdon, all good and capable
artists.
Blind Tom.
This talented negro musical artist
gave another exhibition of his powers
at the Greenlaw 0perahouse, last
night, with his usual success. His
audience, many of whom knew
and appreciated him in former
days, expressed themselves as
much delighted, aud were as
well entertained as ever. The fact
that the novelty of his performance
has in measure worn off, does not
have the effect of rendering it dull, as
he is constantly adding to his already
varied list of composition, giving both
his own work and that of others with
even finer effect, if such is possible.
He appears at matinee to-day, and
tonight for the last time.
