Georges Gush.

New York, 6-TTTbune' Washington:
Senator George, (Miss.) made a speech
to-day on the chinese question, which
proves him 10 be at least fifteen wears
behind the age, and to be still cling.
Ing to the sentiments Of the dark DAYS of
the recJnstrucLion period. I hat be es-
capped without beiag called upon to ex-
plain Is probably due to the isct, that
there were few senators present. and
none listening when he read the closing
portion Of his speech. George in effect
conceCed the right of the people of the
Pacific Coast to settle the question of the
Chinese immigration to suit themselves.
aud asked that the white people of the
south have the same privilege in regard
to negro suffrage.
Following is what George said: The
time may come, it is not here now, when
the relations of another race to Ameri
can citizenship must be as all other
questions ought TO be discussed in like
spirit. n the meantime, while dischsrg-
ing our duty freely Ia educating that
race into the proper discharge of their
duties as American citizens, advancing
them 40 their full capacity, it will be
also our duty to observe with care and
lmpartiality the absorption of the Afri-
can citizenship. The man will be more
rejolced if 10 the end it shall be all that
those who created it shall desire. All
l ask for the VII te people Of the south on
this utject l. what l am willing toI
grant. and believe the msjoritv of this
body Is willing to grant tothe white people
OF the Pacific states, til st their offences and
their judgment shall not be di.credited
in a matter SO deeply affecting their
welfare. The constitution was ordained
snd established by white men, as theo
themselves declared in the preamble. ~
secure the blessings of Liberty to them
selves (ourselves) and their (our) nostar-
ity, and | cannot doubt that their great
pledge thus solemnly given will he &c
fully redeemed In favor of the white
people ofthe south, should occasion for
action arise, as intend on my part and
on their behalf 10 redeem this dav IN
favor Of the white people of the Psci6c
states by my vote to protect fbsno
against degrading and Obstructive ass
citation with che inferior race now tbraat
ening to overrun them.

IT seems that our congressman thinks
that Beaver is going to he elected, or at
least says 50. We will wager a big apple
that he does not think, though lie very
likely said so. Our congressman found
himself under the necessity of saying it !;
and he always says the things that he
finds it necessary to say. He is not of
the stuff that martyrs are made. He
does not believe in kicking uselessly
against the pricks. Our congressman is
not Stalwart, but he lives in Stalwart
community. lie has the Stalwart sup.
port, because of the prudence with
which he declines to kick openly and use
lessly against them and he has the
half-breeds because he is with them in
sympathy. He occupies himself a posi-
tion of independent vantage. He stands
on a solid hummock amid the raging
factions, neither of which can hurt him
and neither of which, therefore, tries.
Each appropriates him, and the compla-
cent Smith calmly permits himself to be
appropriated, and comfortably gnaws
his bone.

THE last speech in the Star Route
trials is being made to-day. The
speeches began 90 long ago that We for
get the date, and the trial itself com.
menced away back somewhere. There
has been fearful stretching out of the
proceedings fact which is due to the
money expended upon the defense and
the big lot Of big lawyers hired, who had
to make show. If these defendants
had been poor they would have been dis
posed of in a day or two and the ends
Of justice would have been as we'll
served. There seemingly needs to he a
reform in the delay Of justice which
money can always procure. Every de-
fendant ought to have fair trial and a
full opportunity for his defense but
there should be no such exhibition as
that just made of q dozen lawyers con-
suming weeks in the summing up of a
case.

HENsEL On THE BIG rHEFTs.

1t is generally conceded among politi-
clans that the sudden fight of the ex-super
ihtendent of the almshouse and the start
ling disclosures which followed it will
have an important bearing on tho fortunes
of the candidates of the three great politi-
cal parties in the coming state campaign.
When approached on the subject Chair
man Hensel, of the Democratic state CON-
mittee, said "The Democratic party
doesn't propose to make partisan capital
out Of the efforts of honest men of all par
ties to secure administrative reform.
Whatever Mr.. Pattison's office has con-

TELL1aENcER, charging the prothonotary
with extorting from fees to the amount of
$31.15, of which amount they claim more
than two-thirds, s24.15, was illegally
charged. They do not propose to stop
with protest and publication, either, but
have instructed their attorneys to bring
the matter before the court at once. The
lNTELLIGENCER, in commenting upon the
communication, vouches for the standing
Of the writer's, and urges that if other
suitors having business with county
officers will follow their example, the
gathering of illegal fees will be stopped,
and the Offices being thus rendered less
profitable the scramble to obtain them
will be diminished and the corrupt prac.
tices of tho return tinkers and ball1t.box
suffers be greatly lessened. This is all
true and commendable, but wouldn't it
be more to the point to insist that any
and all officials detected in charging illegal
fess shall be treated as other thieves are
treated and sent to the penitentiary?

THE NEW PRISONERS.
Something About StOrekeepcr Brown = rcdi-
gree.

Something About StOrokeepor Brown . ledi-
Philadelphia Times.
James II. Brown made his appearance
in Philadelphia about thirteen years ago.
lie was born in Frederick, Maryland, of
an old line Southern family. His ago is
put down on the police blOtter at the
Central station as Al years. During the
rebellion he is said to have cherished
Union sentiments, despite his Southern
surroundings, and enlisted some time
after the breaking out of the great struggle
in tho federal navy. When hc was hon
orably discharged from the service, some
time after the close of tho war,
he had attained tho rank Of as
sistant paymaster. Tho first en-
ployment he obtained in this city. so
far as has been ascertained, was with tho
Messrs. Collins, who were then organic
ing force to send to Brazil to build tho
ill-starred Madeira and MamOre railroad.
He was given a clerical position and was
sent to Brazil, where he remained until
the railroad enterprise was abandoned by
the contractors. Returning to Philadel-
pLia he was employed as clerk by Rich
ard Malone. of Lancaster. Browns next
position was storekeeper Of the almshOuse.
There is a tale in this election. A
member of the board of guardians said
that Brown was q Democrat, was urged
for the almshOuse berth by Mr.. Malone
and that Mr.. Rowan had agreed to put
him there. This member also stated that
Phipps came to him at one Of the meetings
Of the board two years ago aud said {:
want you to vote for Jim Brown for
stcrekeeper." Tho member objected and
wanted to know what had become Of Jas.
Harkins. He was told that lie had been
discharged. The member was further IN
formed that it was Mr.. Rowan's "orilers {"
that Brown should be elected. Upon rcceiv-
ing this bit of information the major was
given piece of the guardians mind.
Brown was successful, however, the only
member voting against him being Peter
Lane, jr. A prominent Republican said
last evening that Brown never had any
political recognition in Philadelphia, that
he was q Southern Democrat and was put
into the almshouse by Mr.. Rowan in re-
turn for the employment of lot of Mr..
Rowan's constituents by Mr.. Malone.
Brown has always been regarded as "a
good, easy. going fellow" with q good
education and polished manners.
Mrs. Adams is q stout. pleasant. faced
woman, with brown hair streaked with
gray, and is widely known throughout
the city. She was formerly matrOn of
the childrcn's department Of the aims
house.

whether the committees of common
