At the Roller skating Rink.

He was Canton youth, real "mash-
ing" young fellow, and, of course, felt
the necessity of displaying himself be-
fore the bevy of feminine beauties, who
nightly grace the skating rink with
their presence. His name wasn't exactly
AdOlphus, but we will call him that
anyhow; his clothes were of the latest
cut-tight breeches and short coat
This is his story:
AdOlphus his breeches tight
OF that he didn't think,
When he put on the roller skates
To show off at the rink.
His first adventure was his last,
He'll put on skates more,
He tried to kick the roof all I'm
And sat down on the floor
When Dolphy dropped the girls all laughed
1t was an awful fall
And when they had their backs all turned
He backed up gainst the wall;
He called friend, took off the skates
And giving him wink,
said! Jim, lend me that lOng-tailed coat
want to leave this rink"

BARBARISM IN THE CENTER OF
CIVILIZATION.

New YORK, March 22-Bishop Hunt
tington, of the Episcopal diocese of Cen
trail New York, is out with a remarkable
letter with reference to the shocking con-
dition of things among the Indian popu-
ulation of what is known as the Ononda-
ga reservation, in this state, some seven
miles from Syracuse. He says: 'Socie-
ty there stagnates in barbarism all adj
vance towards civilization is arrested;
the motives which prompt men to action
and thrift, fail; hope is discouraged; the
natural Incidence Of the Indian has no
spur; they are virtually no traders; agri-
culture, as a science, is unknown; few
framed and painted houses are built by
Christians, but the pagans are, for the
most part content with huts and cabins;
fences are rude; roads are scarcely passa-
BILE; rubbish litters the door-yards; swine
roam at large; meals are irregular: the
women cling to their heather style in
dress and manners; they are made to
work III the field Their worship is a
bowling superstition, and, worse yet,
wedlock is neither respected nor practiced.
Yet all this" adds the good Bishop, "is
right in the heart of the State of
New York, and hitherto it has scarcely
been alluded to in sermons and appeals,
and in journals and assemblies, where
Christians are besought to take pity on a
foreign heathendom, and money is given
to send missionaries of Christ to all cor
ners of the earth" There is now bill
before. the Legislature which con-
templates the breaking up of this reserva-
ton, and the Bishop is decidedly in favor
of its passage. The Onondaga Indian is
a very lazy vagabond, and he thinks it is
high time that civil laws as well as Chris
tianity should set him about some useful
business, and he does not hesitate to say
that "the sentimentalism which invests
his Incidence and filth with the romance
OF by-gone heroism can do him nothing
but HARM"

THE GROWTH OF NEW YORK
CITY

The new year finds this big, bustliDg
hurry city with an increase of at
least 1000 in its much mixed popula-
ton OF the $1,000 immigrants who
passed through Castle Garden in 1881,
about $50, 900 gave New York as their
destination. A great many of these were
bound for other parts of the state, and
many more made their way to other states
after looking around, but it is safe to say
that at least half OF the whole number re-
mained. The increase from other sources
was already steady and rapid. There
never was sncn 4 wear for 'rowding as
1881. The hotels were packed, the
boarding houses were full, the tenements
over-crowded, the flats were occupied
from basement to top story, and the prl-
vate houses were all tenanted. And at
the present moment the crowding is great
er than ever. The chief difficulty met by
newcomers is to find places to live In.
Houses or apartments are not TO be had
except in the far uptown sections, where
most of last years building was done.
Through the central part of the city, say
between Fourteenth street and Central
Park, there are no vacancies for either
rich or poor Every building has its full
complement of tenants and persons look
ing for apartments may search for days
and not find even room. 1t is an ex-
cellent time for the landlords, and they
all seem we'll pleased with it, as they
should. There will probably be another
upward movement in rents in the spring.
House rent like pretty much everything
else, is regulated by supply and demand.
An average advance of at least 10 per
cent, is looked for when the renting sea-
son opens next month. There is no sign
that the rapid increase of population will
stop. The census of 1880 gave us total
of over 100000. 1t must now be nearly
l 500 900, and the rush goes steadily on.
The whole world is tributary to New
York. The tide that flows from Europe
is not the oaly source cf increase by all
means. All parts OF. the United States
contribute their quots. People are con-
stantly coming from every section of the
country to stay. They come to find en-
ployment or to engage in business, and
they swell the throng that makes New
York more and more cosmopolitan every
year. At the present rate OF growth 1t
wont take long to run our population up
to 1000, 900. Counting in Brooklyn and
other suburbs, it is above that figure now;
but if the wonderful increase keeps on,
as it probably will, the metropolis itself
must soon reckon up the grand total Just
named.-Letter to the Buffalo Courier.

AMONG THE HEATHEN.
LETTER FROM COMMODORE SHUFELDS TO
SENATOR SARGENT ON THE FORMERS
OBSERVATION IN CHINA

SAN FRANCISCO, March 22.-The Bull
letin publishes an interesting letter from
Commodore r. w. Shufeldt to A.A. Sar-
gent, giving the results of his observa
tions in China He sums up that there
is no use to attempt to put diplomatic in
tercourse with China on high moral
ground or to appeal to any motives which
ordinarily govern nations. An ineradica-
bic hatred of foreigners exists. Sympathy
will be construed as weakness. If JUS
tice be done China it must be for its own
sake without hope of appreciation. Ii
exacted it must be unrelently. Show of
force is the only argument appreciated.
China especially is antagonistic to our
form of government. This is exeml lifted
in the treatment of the returned Chinese
students. He holds notwithstanding the
possession of some formidable ships and
improved weapons, that China, owing
mainly to the character of the people and
the gross abuse and corruption prevIding
all official circles, has no real aggressive,
military or naval strength. That there
is and can be no affinity between the peo-
pie of the United States and China That
the Government OF the United States as
the governments of Europe, insists upon
its rights in China, conceding no more
than is granted, and trusting 70 more
than is trusted. That there never can be
any intimate, political or commercial re-
lations between them upon basis such
as the United States may demand.
The letter concludes: Il address this
letter to you because / remember that
you were an earnest opponent Of unlimit-
ed Chinese immigration into the United
States, both as senator and citizen OF
your state, although at the time did not
fully concur with you
