 ''To see about that pass"
 It was unfortunate that the excitement O THE EXAMINER scribe who had the goot fortune of peeping into the Book of Fat' got the better of him, or otherwise oul readers would be regaled with many other visions of the future, which, judging iron would be appreciated. It was the chance which only occurs once in a year.
 Again we sound the note of warning the Chinese must go. Our article last week touched the depth of popular feeling on this matter, and there is but one sentiment, and that agrees with THE EXAMINER. Go they must. In advance of any official action by competent power, we are glad to notice that our note of warning has been needed, and the Chinese are being let severely alone.
 The recent flood has done it, as we pre- dicted short while ago. The Canal street sluiceway, which has been called ''Reuben's | Folly" has let in the water to the cellar of | Lyo.:s store, on the corner of Canal street, and damaged his stock stored there. Of course suits will follow, and the lawyers will smile. There's no job like corporation | work for a limb of the law. But we be- lieve one good result will come of it; for in stead of going into history as "Reuben's Folly" white cross will be erected there, which will bear the simple inscription, "Reuben's Grave;" and politicians in pass ing the spot and knowing the sad story of him who lies heneath will learn e9- the saTutary lesson of the uncertainty of political life, as we'll respect for others rights; and they will try to avoid the course which was so disastrous to the unfortunate deed. The truly wise will benefit by the experience of others, but fools will be taught in no school but their own expert ence, and that, as every one finds out, IS a dear one.
 lis said there is skeleton in every clos et However true this may or may not be in its general sense we can not say, but 1t has a special application which we have often noted. Try and see if you can not remember on some high shelf in some dark closet a dust t-covered glass jar or bottle. Yes? We'll, break it off and note the shriv- elled up objects floating about in an amber colored liquid. Tape-worms you conclude. No, you are mistaken. They are the ann putated ends of fingers which were crushed under the heavy drop of some eccentric press in one of our mills here-a press rem dered so by the want of a balance wheel, by an uncertain lever, a wire -jolnted crank, or paIcneo-up soHeecftt1S' ID Cnete no Aa" punishing criminal neglect of this kind, es- pecially when boys are forced to work on these square-peg- peg-in-a-round-hole machines, and after men seeing the danger lurking Tn it, have refused to work on them? Is there no way of punishing the greed of gain and the parsimony which is fast turning this community into an army of maimed and wounded, where every other hand you grasp sends shock down your spinal cord by the contact of fnger-stumps with your own palms? If not there should be. or this town will soon be vast museum of drtif- cidl curGOSitieS.
