California: miller bought fine horse the
other day for 81, 200. and got stuck badly by
one OF the Washington horse-dealers. The

company her husband to their California
home. Mrs. Farley is the only lady of the
Pacific slope dsle sa!ion who goes home this
summer, the wives OF the other Senators and
Representatives all remaining on this side of
the continent for the few months of vacation
1t will be discouraging to the many friends
of Mrs. Pacheco to learn that her severe i'll.

toward recovery. Her physician is anxious
to have her moved from here as soon as she
is able to stand journey north, as the hot

The Question OF Allowing Cuban Chinese
10 Return Home by Way of the United
| States.
WASHING TON, July 2d.-The Sunday Ga
zette prints the following to-day The Cabinet
recently considered the propriety of the re.
| quest made by the Chinese Minister, to allow
of the passage through this country, en- route
to China, of $4,000 coolies from Cuba. It
| WAS affirmed that great hardship and expense
would accrue to them il they were not al
lowed to take this route. The Executive
very properly denied the request, and the
pro-Chinese press everywhere, with its usual
Ignorance of facts, has taken up the diplo-
matte falsehood of the astuts Ceiestials here,
and continues to descant Justify on the wrong
done the coolie men and brothers. What
wrong, pray? 1t was said that the Chinese
Cuban laborers would have TO return home
by way of England. That is q falsehood,
Every one of them went to Cuba by ship
from Hongkong to Panama, crossed the 18th.
mus, and thence by vessel across the Carrib-
can Sea to Cuba. Probably not one of the
10000 referred to ever came to or landed in
the United States. Why, then, should they
return this way, and by the most expensive
methods for such persons? We allude to this
matter, first, to deny the Chinese pretension,
and second, to show in what manner and how
shrewdly Chinese dealers in labor are en-.
deavoring to circumvent the law. If the
Cuban coolies should be allowed to pass
through the United States by far the larger
proportion of them would remain.
A "Crank" Going TO Washington to
AvenGe Guiteau's Death.
ERIE tPa.( July 2i.-A strange crank
passed through here yesterday, who professed
to be on divine mission to Washington, to
execute the command of God by aveneing
Guiteau's murder, as he terms it. He re-
sembles Guiteau in personal appearance, and
processes to be c distant relative. He said he
had never taken much stock in Guiteau until
the night before he was hanged, when God
appeared to him in a vision, and commanded
him to go to Washington to avenge Guiteau's
murder. As to the manner in which this is
to be effected he is in doubt, as God promised
to reveal it to him upon his arrival 10 Wash
ton. He refuses to tell his name, or where |
he came from, but he had ticket from Chi. |
cago to New York. He uttered terrible |
threats against Arthur and others.
Another Report Of Guiteau's Firp.ness I'm |

WASHINGTON, July 2d.-Dr. McWilIiams,
assistant physician at the District Jail, does

night for whole week, watching him pretty
closely. On the night of Thursday / visited
his cell about midnight, and found him sit

to inspect the gallows for him, as he did not
