We may shortly have a new question
with China. The chinese seem immovable,
but when they move, they move with ener-
gy. as we saw in the Panthay country and
kaahgar. Their last idea is that they
may as well have the carrying trade be
tween China and Great Britain as leave it
to Englishmen, and they have started a
line Of trading steamers, the first Of which
arrived in the Thames this week from
Shanghai, loaded with tea. She is owned,
manned, and commanded by Chinese.
That is very well. and if Chinese shippers
can beat AnglO-ChineSe shippers, so much
the better for China but if this line sue
ceedS, we shall have Chinese immigrants
by the thousand entering London. No
one can compete with them in certain
trades, particularly ship-carpcntering and
p0rterage, and We wonder whether the
californian and Australian feeling Will

NJ. Gambetta viii, we imagine, carry
his revision OF the Senate. Among the
hundred Senators who go ont in January
are III. Leon Say and two colleagues for
the Seine.et-Oise. They have met their
constituents. and have felt obliged to
pledge themselves to the abolition Of the
Life Senatorships and a reduction OF the
Senatorial term. Both changes are demo
cratic and we have no doubt, though this
is not mentioned. that they have also
agreed to the direct election OF the com
munal delegates, instead Of their nomina-
ton by the communal councils. This i'm
plies that the moderate Liberals in the
Senate-tte Wigs, in fact-hayP agreed
to NJ. Gambetta'S revision and if that is
so. there can be no effective resistance.
The submission is the mOre remarkable,
because NJ. Leon Say declined Office,'an
u~loubtedly dislikes much OF the pro
gramme which, when tie Senate is revised
NJ. Gambetta will produce. 1t looks as if
the constituencies were nearly unanimous
in supporting the new departure, and the
new man.

Hello! Postmaster Manning is in Wash

The Sunday Amusements.

Although San Antonians were prevented
from enjoying the delight of a Medina park
excursion they were by no means destitute OF
al fresco amusement. At the Springs in addi-
ton to the usual promenade, which at this sea-
son of the year is exceedingly pleasant, a
dance had been arranged, and the attractions
were sufficient to draw large crowd to that
Sylvan retreat. Jonas, not meaning to be be-
hind in the attraction added concert to his
usual programme and succeeded in drawing a
large crowd. A similar attraction was adver-
tised at the Mission gardens and Mr.. Niggli,
was fortunate eno agh to secure very large
share of public patronage.
The day was very fine and the pleasure
seekers of one city were about in swarms, evil
IDENTITY bent upon enjoying the good time Of
ferred at our suburbans pleasue resorts.

Another Complaint Against the Post Office

Another Complaint Against the Post Office.
Rocen'ly German sent his wife and chill
dren to New York. On arrival there, the
VIE, having lost some money, telegraphed to
her husband to send her $50 at once, as she
would want it almost before the time it could
arrive. AS he had no known address the tel
egram was sent to the postoffice. He called
there on several days receiving mail, and al
last, nine days after the telegram was mailed
in this city, it was delivered to him. The
German is very indignant over this and is
afraid of the consequences, as his wife and
family have been in want of money several
days, and has no friends in New York from
whom she can obtain a cent.
The name of the complainant in this case is

he is cleft, as we say, by large majority; on
the contrary, he is satisfied with the present
condition of affairs. He expects to be able to
truthfully utter "Veni, Vidi, We'll" We ad-
mire his spirit, and leave time to tell which is
correct.

Sleep, my child the shadows fall
Silent darkness reigns o'er all;
Bird and bloom are lost to sight
In the folded arms OF night;
Stars will soon from cloud towers Feep,
While al nature lies asleep.
Breathe thou softly Rest is sweet
For tired hearts and aching feet;
No dull care nor toll is thine
Nor sin, thou blessed child Of mine
Tranquil on thy soft couch rest,
With dreams OF Heaven in thy breast
Birds are sleeping; close thine eyes;
Waken with soft surprise;
Greet The morning with thy smile,
And sweet prattle without guile,
Scents lie sleeping in the flowers;
Slumber I'LL the daylight hours.
Sleep Thy Father guards thy resi-;
Lay thy head upon His breast:
Safer than these arms which hold thee,
His dear love will firm enfold thee;
Higher love than nine snail He
Give, beloved one, to thee!
Sleep! The waves have long been sleel
ing
Angels DER thee watch are keeping
Ger us beth the pale stars shine
With radiance half divine,
Slumber. innocent and light,
Fall from Heaven on thee tonight.
