The Government Tempting
Providence
Picaynne.

We have startling Geographic news
this morning from Rock Springs, WyO-
ming Territory, where the Caucasion
miners attacked the Monaghan miners
the other day, burned down their
houses, and burned to death, beat and
shot no less than fifty of the Chinese,
who were taken without warning. This
butchery was the elimination of one of
those race conflicts which it is the duty
of civilized governments to prevent, by
sueh conduct of affairs as to render
them impossible. The Chinese, as We
have explained, were brought III by the
coal corporation, essentially the same
thing as the Union PACING Railroad
Company, expressly to underworld Cau--
Casian labor, and the importation OF
foreign labor for such lgnOble objects
should be altogether prevented by law
and its execution. These Chinese had
been in the country many years, but
that scarcely puts different face on
the position of affairs; the general
statement of the situation must Oe that
capital imports cheap labor to increase
its profits, and the peaceable remedy
is in the hands of labor, which is III the
majority at every poll in the country,
and can If it will elect legislators who
will make laws that will forever check
the importation of labor by capital.
But IN the mean time, while We have
not adequate legislation, the govern
ment has been called upon to handle
this subject, and has so acted that as
far as lies in its power the conflicts
shall be prevented. 1t has sent four
companies of troops which yesterday
arrived at Rock Springs, escorting and
protecting seven hundren Chinese min
+ nc a that
the government permanently stations a
large force at the mines the white min
ers will, on the first occasion, again at
tack and again massacre the Chinese.
The spirit of blood which has been
aroused is not one which will consent
to lie still. The danger has been
created, the outburst has come, and it
looks as ii the only remedy would be
to remove the Chinese from the Terri
tory.
LII the meantime it would be well for
Mr.. Cable and the other philanthro
pists to take up this race question on
the Pacific slope, and explain why it is
that the enlightened and civilized mi
orators from New England and the
Middle States into this Territory should
have SO much repugnance to the Mon
golian. These Pacific States and Ter
Titories have been among the most Bit
far Republicans, and cried aloud for
African domination in the South. So
far from practicing what they preach,
they refuse the Chinaman even the
privilege of working for a livelihood.
We are far from saying they are not
right in planting themselves square Oh
the old doctrine that this is a white
mans country, and is to be dominated
by white men, no matter what may
come to pass but they are not consis-
tent in their political creed.

just then a finely-developed bee, of
the humble persuasion, was carried by
the strong wind slap onto the Deacon's
nose. He made a furious grab for it,
but alas too late. 1t had got its work
in, and sting, too. As Jonny rubbed
the old mans nose with washing blue

Das Ewig Weibgiche at Com
cord
Albany Argus.

It was conceded that the eternal wo-
manly, the principle which draws on
and upward, is the infinite love of the
divine nature, the motherliness of God,
SO to speak, to which Teodore Parker
some times addressed his prayers.
Prof. Davidson coDtended that the
eternal manly is not wanting in this
element. The best woman possesses
something of the man, as the best man
of the woman. The Ewig Weibliche is
compassion or tenderness like that ma
ternal love which overbroods and pro-
tects the young child.

the G.. A. r. of Indiana Comrade Fostef. is an
eloquent speaker, with fresh recollection of the
war, and has an excellent record as soldier and
a citizen.
In presenting the monuments to the Gettys-
burg Battlefield Memorial Association, short
speeches will be made by some member of each
of the six Indiana regiments, and a response by
some officer of the Memorial association, to be
selected by the association.
In addition to the foregoing ceremonies, there
are many other things in and around Gettysburg
which ought to attract the soldier and the citi-
zen.
The country round about Gettysburg is very
beautiful, and there in that valley the rebels for
the first and last time measured swords with the
Union forces on free soil in Northern State.
From the hour of that victory dates the certain
ty of TIE downfall of the Confederacy This
battlefield has already passed into history, and
is second to none in the world, Waterloo not ex-
cepted The battle itself awful. Every
soldier felt that the life of the Republic was the
stake. and prepared to die on the field rather
than lose. The result opened the eyes of the
world, and from that field our armies marched
steadily forward to final victory.
The field is being constantly beautifed in the
way of laying out avenues, erecting monuments
to our distinguished dead and tablets
marking the positions occupied by the different
regiments. The government has erected a grand
monument on this field, costing SCI, 900. The
State of Pennsylvania has erected beautiful
monument to General Reynolds commander of
the first corps who lost his life in the battle of
the first day. This monument is sur
mounted with a bronze statue of
General Reynolds, facing the enemy and
watching with deep interest their advancing
columns. On this battlefield our State will
have six beautiful monuments, marking the po
sltlons, occupied by our six regiments. the
Seventh, Fourteenth, Nineteenth, Twentieth,
Twenty seventh and the Third cavalry. 1t gives
our soldiers great pleasure to know that on this
field, with the grand old Army of the Potomac,
we mark the first and last days fighting.
The extreme right and left of
the army, the front and center,
Indiana was everywhere present This is no
idle Boast as every monument, it's position and
inscriptions had to be first submitted to Col.
John b. Bachelor, superintendent of tablets
on the field. Our soldiers throughout the East
ern States are hailed and recognized everywhere
as among the bravest of the brave.

Took Her at Her Word.

Charleston News and Courier.
The young African can at times obey an order
as literally as the best drilled veteran of the
Potsdam Guards. AS case in point, colored
mother was walking yesterday on Coming street,
followed at respectful distance by a little girl,
her daughter, who was founced and furbelowed
in creamy white in the very distraction of the
height Of fashion. The little girl had as much
fat bacon and iron-cad bread in one hand as no
other little girl could hold in two and after a
desperate effort to keep up with her mother and
to eat up her supplies before getting to the
church, the section of the side of bacon slipped
from her greasy fingers and rolled on the sandy
pavement. The African mother, whose atten-
ton was attracted by the wall Of the African
daughter. turned round and, with the sublimest
irony and scorn, said: Now, pick it up, You lap
sided hussey and wipe it your nice new white
dress!" The subsequent remark of the elder AT
rican will explain both the tableau and the re-
suit She simply said: "And, please God, she's
gone and done it, tool"
