WASHINGTON, April 6--The Senate
received from the President to-day q
long message, transmitting the cor
respondence between the Secretary OF
State and the Chinese minister with re-
gard to the treaty rights of Chinese sub
jects, other than laborers, to go and
come of their own free will and accord.
The President says that cases of indi-
vidual hardship, beyond the power OF
the Executive to remedy, have occurred
in the application Of the Chinese acts,
which are due to ambiguous and de-
fective provisions Of the acts of Con-
gress. The hardship has in some cases
been remedied by the courts, but in
others, where the phraseology has ap-
peared to be conclusive against any dis.
cretion on the part of the officers, Chi
nese persons expressly entitled to free
admission under the treaty have been
refused landing and have been sent back
to the country whence they came without
being afforded an opportunity to show
Their rights. The act of July 5. 1884,
the President says, imposes an inpossi-
BILE condition in not providing for the
admission under the proper certificate
of Chinese travellers of the exempted
class in cases most likely to arise in ordi-
nary commercial intercourse for the
somewhat numerous class OF Chinese
persons who, retaining Chinese subjec-
ton in some countries other than China,
desire to come from such countries to
the United States. The complaint of
the Chinese Minister is that Chinese
member, Lay Sang, of the house of King,
Lee & Co., OF San Francisco, having ar
rived at San Francisco from Hong Kong
and exhibited the certificate of the
United States Consul at Hong Kong as
to his status as a merchant and conse-
quent exception under the treaty, was
refused permission to land and was sent
back to Hong Kong by the steam
er which brought him over. 1t is
to be remembered the President
says that there is at Hong Kong no rep
resentative oil the government of China
competent OF authorized TO issue the
certificate required by the statute. The
intent Of Congress to legislate in execu-
tion Of the treaty, the President says,
sis thus defeated "1y prohibition di-
rectly contrary to the treaty and the
conditions are exactly which, in the
words of the Supreme Court, it was
physically impossible to perform. This
anamolous feature, should be per-
formed as speedily as possible, in order
that the occurrence OF such cases may be
avoided and the imputation removed,
which would otherwise rest on the good
faith of the United States in the exeeu-
tion of their solemn treaty engagement.

CONSUMPTION.

The earlier symptoms of this disease are
Il sense OF weariness upon little exertion, a
disposition to remain passive and idle, pc
culiar sensitiveness TO the effects of cold
and a shortuess OF breath upon moving
quickly or ascending hill or stairs, slight
hacking cough, with or without cxpectora-
ton, flying pains throughout the chest or
back. or under the shoulder blades. The
symptoms are worse towards or during the
night, slight fever in the afternoon. cold
feet and hands, and in many cases blue liy-
idity OF the lips aud roots of the finger nails.
The more advanced symptoms are wasting
of flesh, diarrhea, chllls and fever, night
sweats, expectorHtions of yellow pus from
the ulcers or cavities in the lungs, with or
without depression OF the chest. increasing
weakness and at last a closing up of the air
passages OF the lungs, causing strangulation
or sutfocation of the patient for want oi
power to expectorate the mucus from the
lungs.
Heretofore the treatment of consum ption
has been very unsatisfactory, alike TO both
the physicians and their patients, but lucki
/ ly since the discovery OF the Aerean system
of practice few years ago, thousands OF
cases have been completely cured where
had il not been for this system OF practice.

SAN FRANCISCO, April g. Chinese
Consul Bee has made the following
statement in regard to the refusal Of the
Customs authorities to allow the Minis
ter to land without producing the neces-
sary papers; Secretary Bayard sent in
structions to the collector at this port
to permit the legation to land freely and
extend to them every courtesey. just
at the moment his excellency and suite
were about to skip ashore, the surveyor
informed me that the collector had just
sent an order not to let the legation land
until his excellency's credentials were
sent to the Custom House for examina-
tion. This was communicated to his
excellency, who expressed much
surprise at the action of the
collector remarking that his
government had instructed him only to
present his credentials to the President
Of the United States, and adding that
they were packed in his baggage, under
seal, and it would be very inconvenieni
to get at them at that moment. and he
therefore preferred to remain on ship
until Communication could be had with
Washington. Finally, after delay Of
an hour and half, the Minister and
suite were permitted to leave the ship.
