Montgomery Blair and The Chinese Cues

WASHINGTON, t1arch otn.-N1ontg0mery
Blair has written the following letter to Sem
ator Miller, of California, in relation to the
immigration of Chinese:
Hon. John F. Miller-Dear Sir have read your
speech the Chinese question with great satisfac
ton I think it conclusive on all the points dis
cussed. | do not see how any thoughtful lover
Of his country countenance this Mongolian In
Tasiop, involving as II does primarily subversion
OF our civilization Hoar seems in ent on sub
merging with Asiatics uider the mistaken notion
that our declaration for the equality and rights OF
man compelled US TO open our country to all COM
merce This reasoning would oblige US
to surrender our homes to every way
farer There is neither sense nor relig-
ioR in this. In my judgment, Providence has
&C mmitted this Continent TO our trust, to be used
for His honor and glory by making it the home Of
civilization, and We should be derect to our highest
duty it, TO subserve the wishes Of capitalists and to
provide them with cheap labor, We allowed the
country to be overhowed by mere machines, men
utterly destitute OF all sense Of honor, patriot
ism or religion, and absolutely incapa-
BILE OF being impressed with such feelings. 1t
is however, idle TO suppose that the people will put
up with any such policy. What Mr.. Hoar speaks
OF ruff snism Is the cropping out Of the settled
purpose of the people to protect themselves without
law IL the proper authority does not protect them.
and nothing but . conviction that such measures

you now propose to enact would pass, could have
/ prevented more decisive action. Yours, very

Letter OF Paid Attorney of the Chinese
and Reply Thereto.

WASHINGTON, March 31.-G. Kennedy, of
this city, who is generally understood to be q
regularly employed attorney for the Chinese
Six Companies Of California, has issued a
pamphlet entitled 1.-THE Chinaman as La
borer," which bears his name, and is ad-
dressed in the form of a letter to Senator
Dawes. 10 it he endeavors to show that the
census total If Chinese residents in California
in 1880 is less than the total number that
would have been found in 1876, 1877 or 1873
had q census been taken in either of those
years. He also cites extracts from the testi-
mony given before the Congressional Commits
sion Of 1876 by w. W. Hollister, Judge Solo.
mon Heydenfeldt. DIR. Mcclellan. Rev. VIM.
Brier, George d. Roberts and other Califor-
mans in favor of Chinese immigration, but
does not quote those portions of their testi.
mony which throw light upon its apparently
self-interested inspiration.
This important omission is exposed and an
explanation supplied by the SUNDAY Gazette of
TO day, which points out that Kennedy garbl d
citations are from witnesses who have grown
rich by employing Chinese labor, who are no.
torious in California for antagonism to indie.
pendent and ambitious labor, or whose special
relations with the Chinese in business, or law,
or missionary interests, make them naturally
Chinese advocates and champions of Mongo.
lian Immigration. The Gazette then editori.
ally proceeds to state what the overwhelming
bulk OF testimony taken by the Congressional
Commission really did establish, and closes
its article with brief but emphatic allusion
to the troubles which have resulted from the
presence of the African and Indian skeletons
at our national board. and warning against
another race conflict for no other reason than
that of cheapening labor and deteriorating
cur civilization.

Crying Over Split Milk.

There are some people so unfortunately
constituted that they cannot as easily APP
preciate the blessings that belong TO them
as those which they have missed who are
perpetually groaning over something lost,
or denied, or wasted, TO the disparagoment
of the goods the gods have provided. If n
dish is broken or u garment rent, instead
of quietly making the best of it, since no
amount of chatting or crying will restore
my injured article 10 its pristine glory,
they recur again aud again to the disaster,
till IL might suppose nothing less than a
CONFUSION of nature would demand such n
hue me cry. A stolen purse is n text on
which infinite changes may be run among
this class; and one might believe that the
loss of n nights sleep could be readily re-
paired by weeping and gnashing of teeth,
while the lamentations of jeremiah are
weak compared to the bewailing they make
over q ruined enterprise or n tickle lover.
ave have gains for all our losses" says
the verse, but surely the gain is not TO be
secured by making ourselves and every
body about us miserable on account of our
mishaps the one who bears with fortitude
calamities which, great or small, are be-
yond her control, wins whatever ndvant-
age there is TO be derived from them, and
makes adversities, no less than prosperity,
minister 10 her development. If our friends
disappoint us, b%cmoaning will not recon-
pense us; if "youth, the dream, DEPARTS"
deploring it will only hasten the ravages
of time; if moths corrupt our furs, fret
ring will not act MS an cXtcrminatOr though
the early frost kills our favorlte roots, "for
violets dead, the sweetest showers can ne'cr
make grow again.
Although we are wei! aware that crying
over split milk is but so much wasted
time and energy, yet many of us practice
it with n total disregard of consequences,
which would be heoric if used in n more
cause. In the meanwhile there
Is n sort of hopeless pleasure in sOrrowing
over the split milk, which however blue or
sour IL may q seemed when ours, be
comes all that milk should he the instant
it leaves our grasp. BLESSINGS brighten rs
they take their flight and sometimes
it is only when we lave lost n thing that
we grow capable of estimating its value,
discover how necessary it was 10 our
~well-being. 1t is cold comfort, perhaps,
but one which we are apt TO hug, to
reflect with bitterness upon what a diff
ferent aspect the world would wear fol
us IL certain pals of milk We wot of
had not miscarried; if Angelina had mar

To have u ont or not-tiat Is the question;
Whether It's better for the Jaws TO suffer
The pangs and torrents OF an aching tooth,
or TO take steel against n host OF troubles
And. by extracting. end them : To pull-to tug
No more; and by a tug to say we end
Tho tOotbnchc, and a thousand natural Ills
The Jaw Is heir to - It's a
Devoutly to be wished. To puIl-to tug
To tug! perchance 10 brehk-ay. there's the rub;
For in that wrench what asonics mas come.
When we have hAifdislodged the stubborn foe,
Must give US pause; there's the respect
That makes an aching tooth ofso long n life;
For who would bear the whips and stIngs Of pain,
The old wifc's nostrum, dentists contumely.
The pangs OF hope deferred. kind sleeps delay,
When lie himself might his quietus make
For one poor s%liilllnys WHO would fardels bear,
To groah and sink beneath a load of pain,
But that the dread Of something lodged within.
The linen twisted forreps, from whose pangs
NoJnws at ease returns. puzzles the VIII

Than fly tn otbersthat Is knows not orr
Thus dentists do make towards of us all;
And thus the native hue Of resolution

And many u one. whose courage seeks the doer
with this regard, Ills footsteps turn away.

A strange

There was once n minister of the Gospel
VINO never built n church.
Who never preached in one.
Who never proposed a church fair TO buy
the church n new carpet.
Who never founded Il new sect.
Who fr~equented public houses and drank
wine with Sinners.
Who never received n salary.
Who never asked for one.
Who never wore n black suit or white
necktie.
Who never used n prayer book.
Or "a hymn book.
Or wrote n sermon.
Who never hired a cornet soloist or Ninl-
mist to draw people to hear the Word.
Who never advertised his erinons
Who never took n text for his sermons
Who never went through n course Of
theological study.
Who never was ordained.
Who was never even converted"
Who never went to a conference.
Who never was surprised by a donation
party.
Who was he?
Christ.
