Premier and Parnell, while the latter
was in Kilmainham jail, was a mere
trick to betray Parnell. The prepon-
derance of opinion, however, fayors
the idea that there was a union, and
that it will yet lead to important
changes in the policy of England.
Mr.. Gladstone is at present so busy
pushing his bill for the prevention of
crime in Ireland that the revision of
the land act cannot be made. It is
doubtful what the future Of the new
bill will be. The votes thus far taken
indicate a large majority in favor of
it, but the opposition is rapidly crystal
izing, and strong effort will be made
by quite large body of conservatives,
who object to the manner in which
the tribunals are constituted and the
so-called political clauses of the bill.
They will delay and retard as much as
possible the action III the committee
room while they are building up in the
House. Parnell is placed in an en-
barrassing position. His leadership
in Ireland is challenged, and the late
union, without prompt fruits, will
tend to overthrow his influence, what
ever it may be. If he fails to secure
the recognition he demands, and it is
believed has been promised, he will
probably go back to the old mode OF
war, but evidently it will be with
shattered forces. Parnell, the cast of
tool Of the British government, would
have no force in Ireland.

the National Capital a whole night
ahead of the five o'clock trains on other
routes, and they all run them. While
the B. & O. thus almost practically
does away with competition to Wash
ington by offering the public facilities
which cannot be equalled it makes an
equally strong claim for the travel to
Baltimore, Philadelphia and New
York. By no other line can Washing
ton be visited en- route to New York
without additional expense for railroad
fare and more hours upon the road.
Certainly the b. q o. never before
had so advantageous schedule out of
Chicago, and a public not satisfied with
so excellent an arrangement of trains
would be hard to please indeed. 1t
would be superfuous to go into detail
as to through palace sleeping cars, par
lor cars and dining cars. All first
class roads run such nowadays, and the
B. & o. is a first class road in every
particular. Speaking Of through cars,
it should be stated that the train leav-
ing at fve-ten is still the only solid
train from Chicago to New York
running through without change of
cars of any class whatever.

When an individual is reported to
have died of disease of the heart, we
are in the habit Of regarding it as an
inevitable event-as something that
could not have been fOreseen or pre-
vented; and it is too. much the habit,
when persons suddenly fall down dead,
to report the heart as the cause. This
silences all inquiry and investigation.
and saves the trouble and incon-
venience of post norton. A truer
report would have tendency to save
many lives. 1t is through a report Of
disease of the heart that many an
opium eater is sent off into the grave
that covers at once his folly and his
crime; the brandy-drinker, too, quietly
slides around the corner thus, and is
heard of no more; in short, this report
of disease of the heart is the mantle
Of charity which the polite coroner
and sympathetic physician throws
around the graves of generous people.
At scientific congress at Strasburg,
it was reported that &C persons who
had suddenly died, an immediate and
faithful post norton showed that only
two persons had any heart affection
whatever-one sudden death only in
80, from diseases of the heart. Nine
out of so die of apoplexy-one out of
every seven-while 46, more than two
out of three, died of lung affection,
half of them Of congestion of the
lungs, that is. the lungs were so full Of
blood they could not work: there was
not room enough for air to get in to
support life. 1t is, then, of consider
able practical interest to know some
of the common everyday causes Of this
congestion Of the lungs, q disease
which, the figures above being true,
kills three times as many persons at
short warning as apoplexy and heart
disease together. Cold feet, tight
shoes, light clothing. costive bowels,
sitting still until chilled through after
having warmed up by labor or long
hasty walk; going too suddenly from a
close, heated room, as a lounger, Or
listener, or speaker, while the body is
weakened by continual application, or
abstinence, or heated by long address;
these are the frlghtful causes of sud-
den death in the form of congestion
of the lungs: but which, being falsely
reported as disease of the heart, and
regarded as an inevitable event, throw
people off their guard instead Of point
ing them to their true causes, all of
which are avoidable; and very easily
so, as a general rule, when the mind
has once been intelligently drawn to
the subject.-HalTs Journal Of Health.

THE CHINESE.

There is no question about every ma.
tons right to regulate the immigra-
ton to it's shores. No one questions
the power of this or any other govern
ment under the sun to say what class
of men may become it's citizens. No
one doubts the propriety of every ma
TONS looking well to the character of
all foreigners seeking an asylum on
it's shores. Justice to itself, to it's peo-
pie and to the future demand it.
No one doubts or can question the
right Of any government to regulate,
restrict, or entirely prohibit Chinese
immigration, and there are not men
now to be found who will dispute the
demand for something of the kind at
this time. We are nation of but So
100000 of people, while China is a ma
ton of over 400,000,000. She could
without serious inconvenience to her
self, if our government and people
would permit, send such swarm of
Cinnamon here as to take possession of
our land and drive our people to the
wall To protect ourselves and our
nation we must set limit somewhere.
That limit is best fixed by experience.
For hundreds and thousands of
years the Chinaman has been an ex-
elusive animal, living entirely to him
self, like a hard-shell Baptist. His
enormous wall shut all the world out
to him, and him in from all the world
He journeyed not beyond the limits of
the Celestial Empire; he cared not to
journey beyond it.
The Americans threw open their
doors and their arms and invited the
Chinaman to our shores and took him
lovingly to their breasts. He did the
drudgery of the Pacific Coast, builded
the railroads and opened the mines
and did it for comparatively nothing
The Chinaman was a good 6 find TO
the American; and to the Chinaman
America was grand place.
In a short time the Chinaman show
ed his "cloyen foot;" his numerous
bad habits and intolerable practices
and dishonesty came to the surface
He worked for nothing and lived on
less. Thus he became serious COM
petitor with American labor. And
here sprang up the first serious trou-
BILE. We now recognize that the
Chinaman is a curse to our country
and that he must be gotten rid of some
way. But how?
The Chinaman is now amongst us
he came at our invitation; he is the
nations guest. He must be gotten
rid of in some way ali agree, but nc
sober-minded and thoughtful man will
agree that he is to be gotten rid of as
the Russians and the Germans are get
ting rid of the Jews. Nor be- they to
be gotten rid of as the Pacific Coast is
trying to get rid of them-by cruelty,
murder and arson. They may not be
wholly human, yet they are men and
must be so treated. This Government
cannot afford to allow them to be
treated otherwise, the people cannot
affort to treat them otherwise.
The solution Of the problem is diff.
cult on; but let it be well considered.

should open school for the education
of horses that animal might be taught
much of far more practical Importance
than fast running.
GREAT EXHIBITION OF BICYCLES.
One Of the novel attractions in this
city the past week was the third annual
exhibition of bicycles, which occurred
on Saturday last. Riders with bicycles
were present from New York, Phila-
delphia, Baltimore and other places.
A procession was formed at o'clock
P. NJ on 8th street, consisting of over
ninety frst-class bicycles, and moved
noiselessly on Pennsylvania avenue to
the Presidents house, continuing from
thence along Vermont avenue to
Iowa circle, where the exercises took
place. Thousands of spectators
thronged the sidewalks on the avenue
to witness the procession, which glided
along so gracefully and orderly. The
bicycle is no novelty in Washington,
but so large a number, operated by the
most expert riders, brought together
from other cities, had never been seen
here before. The scene on Iowa cir
Gle was brilliant; the tall edifices Dor
dering on the circle, with flags floating
from the housetops; the windows and
balconies filled with gaily-dressed peO-
pie, mostly women and children; the
spirit-stirring music-altogether pre-
sented a panorama highly attractive.
The pavement around the circle is
nearly as smooth as polished floor.
1t is estimated there were not less than
eight thousand spectators present.
Without particularizing the various
trials of speed, a few items will suffice.
The quickest time made of one mile
race was 3 min., 10 Sec; three mile
race, 10 min. 46 Sec; five mile race,
II min. A Sec The owners Of fast
horses must look we'll to their laurels.
Perhaps it may be asked wherein
does the moral of bicycle running
differ from horse racing? The differ
ence now is considerable, but may not
be in all time to come. As yet no pool
selling, gambling, &C., attaches to
bicycle races. F:

PLEASANT PRAIRIE No. ADA C
GRANT, Teacher.

We have received the report of the
State Superintendent for 1881, vol
ume of 450 pages, Ieplete with statisti-
cal tables, and containing many valu-
able suggestions to teachers and school
officers. It is gratifying to know that
the percentage of attendance on the
number enrolled Kenosha county
stands first in the list. In the percent
age of enrolment on the whole num-
Der Of children in the county our
record is not so good, twenty-seven
counties leading us. Our percentage,
however, is two per cent above the
average.
The state school fund amounts to
forty-one and q half cents per child
of school age, Kenosha county receiv-
ing $2,100.32. The average wages
paid to male teachers in Kenosha
county was $34.80; thirty-seven coun-
ties pay higher average than this,
thus exploding the idea that Kenosha
county pays higher wages than other
counties Of the state. In this county
the average wages Of female teachers
was $27.G1; this is exceeded by thir-
teen counties in the state.

The Irish assassins have not been
captured. From latest reports rs to
the pulse Of the detective force, it IS
safe to conclude that they will not be,
unless some new and important dis
covery is soon made. Johnny Bull is
pretty ready to offer suggestions and
to pity any one who is unable to search
out and bring to justice the. perpetra-
tors of such a deed. In this instance
it seems that the possibilities of escap-
ing English justice are about as prom
ising as elsewhere. England is the
only country who would seek to re-
yenge herself on five million people
for the act of little band of four

The opening Of the great Warren
county Pennsylvania oil well is caus-
ing a panic among the capitalists who
have their money invested in appli-
ances for obtaining this great commod-
ity. The well pours forth one thou
sand barrels of magnificent petroleum
daily. When it is remembered that
there is enough oil above ground at
the present time to supply the world
for five years if single drop were
not produced in that time, it is easy to
see what an effect such new bonanza
will have upon the market. Kerosene
il already low-so low that all sorts
of new means for utilizing the product
are coming into use. Kerosene Cor
heating, lighting and lubricating pur-
poses is bound to take a still further
step ahead. People will not object to
change. Oil at or 10 cents gallon,
even less, will be blessing to the poor
man, who can use it in place of wood
or coal.

The Sentinel and Republican, OF
Milwaukee, after considerable hair
pulling and ist-cufling, like respectable
journals, have concluded peace and
cemented it by entering into the mar
ried state, The engagement ring was
probably given some weeks ago, but
the ceremony was not performed till
Monday last, when, in new dress, and
under the firm title of "The Republi-
can.Sentinel," the bride and groom
appear, two souls with but a single
thought, two hearts that beat as one"
ready to receive callers. We were not
favored with wedding cards, but pre-
sumo the usual formula, "your pres
ents are cordially" ETC., was gone
through with. From the style of the
new departure, we conclude that the
old and more conservative Sentinel
plays the masculine part, while the
younger and more progressive Repub-
Nc0R will have charge of the culin-
airy department--prepare the local
hash and attend to the cream-besides
doing a vast amount of news-gather-
ing from her neighbors. The public
will he prompt in expressing its con-
gratulations, wishing the welded pair
all sorts OF happiness and prosperity,
while, as in all unions Of this kind.
there will not be wanting evil-disposed
persons who will remark upon the
great disparity in their ages and the
promptness with which the RepubH-
can has forgotten her first love-the
Meas. But these are things soon for
gotten, and prosperous career and
lots of good newsy reading matter for
their respective patrons will soon wipe
them out.

There seems to be a misunderstood
ing on the part of some Of the teachers
as to how many maps each school is to
furnish to the exhibit at the fair.
Some teachers think that each pupil is
to furnish one map. This is not the
case. Each school is required to fur
nish one map of the United States, one
of the State, and one of the County.
These maps are to be drawn by the
geography classes, and not by the in
dividual pupils. The maps are to con-
tain the principal rivers and noun
tains. The names Of the states and
counties need not be put on the maps,
but the sections on the county maps
are to be numbered.

THE SMALLEST BABY ALIVE.

a gentleman from Candelaria in
forms us that the smallest baby
in the world was born in that camp at
noon on the Sd inst. The father is a
miner in the employ of the Northern
Belle Mine and weighs 100 pounds.
The mother is stout, healthy woman,
weighing perhaps 100 pounds. The
child is a male, as perfectly formed as
any human being can be, but upon its
birth it only weighed eight ounces.
Its face is about the size of horse
chestnut, and the size of its limbs can
be imagined when we say that ring
worn on the little finger Of its mother
was easily slipped over its foot nearly
up to the knee. Our informant states
that it was the opinion of the attend
ing physician that the child would live
and prosper In good health, notwith-
standing its diminutive proportions.
The midget is so small that three of
it's size could play hide-and-seek in a
cigar-box. This is. believed to be the
smallest baby ever BORN Carson
