SAN Francisco, CAL, Oct. 8. From
advices received by the steamer Bel
gic, it is learned that the whole of
the new embankment of the Yellow
river at Chang Chou, began last
autumn and carried on at cost
equal to over nine millions of dol
lars, has been completely swept
away by the recent flood. OF the
eight thousand lineal feet of river
wall recently completed, not one inch
remains and the waters are pouring
through the immense gap into Honan
unchecked. From 800 to 1000 la
borers, who were on the bank, were
swept away and drowned. a dis
astrous flood in the province of Monk
den, about $50 miles northeast of
Picking, caused the death of hun
dreds of natives, utter humiliation
of very many homes, destruction TO
crops and prospects of a general
famine for the coming winter. The
cholera is still raging at Hong Kong.
The daily average of new patients
ranges from 40 to 80, most of whom
die.
The storm on the 30th at Nok-
ajorie, in Japan, caused the follow
lowing damage: Number of houses
demolished or half destroyed, 5000 /;
vessels totally lost, 80 vessels wreck
ed, 500; number of persons wound
ed, injured and receiving public as
sistance, $1,000.

devoted to the cause of temperance.
No state has upon its statute book
any law prohibiting or seriously
threatening the liquor traffic which
was not enacted by the republicans
and opposed by the democrats.
Many other minor and incidental
reasons connected with questions of
the present hour might be given for
voting with the republican party-its
policy towards other nations; its
attitude concerning the Isthmus tran
sit and New England fisheries it's
desire to again send out American
merchant vessels upon all the waters
of the globe; its support of liberal
pensions for Union war veterans and
their families; its committal to ma
tional education and, generally, its
advocacy of measures for the devel-
opment of the national interests and
the elevation of the national charac-
ter; wherein on all points it is an
tagonizei by our Southern Bourbon
masters. But | am content to rest
its case with intelligent, patriotic,
candid voters upon CD its supreme
devotion to the protection of home
industries and American labor by adj
equate customs duties; (2) upon it's
persistent demand for free and hon
est suffrage for both white and black
citizens; and (3) upon its consistent
adherence to the temperance cause,
proved by It's enactment and mainte-
nance of all the temperance legisla-
ton which exists in the United States.

Harrison as a Speaker.

General Harrison is by no means
a conceited or self-suflicient man !;
on the contrary he is extremely mod
est, but he has a reliance i'm his own
clear perception, and in the honest,
straightforward expression of his
convictions and beliefs. He has had
so wide an acquaintance with public
affairs and has SO closely studied
economic questions, was so deeply
engaged as a soldier of the Union
army and has had such close con-
nection with the peoples concerns
in state and nation, that, with his
keen mind, appreciative and SYM
pathetic nature, ne is admirably pre-
pared to discuss on a familiar plane
the matters that closely relate to the
peoples welfare and aspirations.
He does this in a mastery manner,
and the effect upon the immediate
hearers, as also upon the wide cir
Gle of readers throughout the coun
try, is most excellent. 1t is strong
feature of the Harrison campaign.
Garfield in 80 made a remarkable
series of addresses, at his Mentor
home, to a large number of visiting
delegations, and they were all per-
tinent, felicitious and able. Blaine
made a long series of short address
es in his tour in "a, which in many
instances aptly struck key-notes and
were very helpful. Garfield and
Blaine made no mistakes in their
speaking tours or in their shorter
addresses to delegations. Greeley
in 1872 made n truly wonderful Sc
ries of speeches in his campaign
trips, which in many instances were
elaborate discussions of the ques-
tons of the time. In their variety
and comprehensiveness, Greeley's
speeches have never been surpassed
in any political canvass la Jnls coun-
try. They exist in book form, and
therein is a great amount of useful
information respecting the country
and its politics. The Harrison adj
dresses, both the more elaborate eff
forts in which public is discussed,
and the more simple ones, in which
pointers for the canvass are pre-
sented, compare favorably with the
oratorical efforts of any man who
has stood before the American people
as candidate for the highest place
in their gift.-SgdcUse Journal.

The San recently referring to the
tariff measures now before congress,
says: "Leaving partisan politics
and party platforms out of sight al
together, the senate plan is the surer,
safer and more practicable remedy
for the evils which President Cleve-
land so forcibly described in his
message of last December. When
the Republican senate passes this
bill it will afford the Democrats of
the house and the Democrats in the
White House a political opportunity
such as rarely occurs. Mr.. Mills
and his friends have only to renounce
the pride of authorship and sink diff
ferences of opinion as to immaterial
details of surplus reduction, and they
can send to the executive mansion
for Mr.. Cleveland's signature before
the year ends a bill made TO meet the
condition which confronts us. To
take the Republican senators at their
word, to pass their bill and thereby
abolish the surplus-that would be n
master stroke of politics"

Little New England.

Said Mr.. Blaine, "there are an
nually raised in this country 300,-
100000 pounds of wool. We only
had 60,000,000 pounds of wool grown
annually by the farmers of the coun-
try when the free trade tariff was in
operation just before the war. Under
the effct of the protective tariff we
have increased in the amount of
wool, grown almost wholly in the
West, to 300,000,000 pounds an
nually, and it brings a vast aggre-
gate of nearly 500, 100000 to the
farmers of the country. Mr.. Cleve-
land recommends that the duty on
that be repealed, and that we shall
put the wool grower of the West on
the same plane as the wool grower
of Australia and Canada. The Re-
publicans say NO" and New En-
gland takes every year half of that
entire wool crop and pays the West
$40, 100000 year for it.
Besides as New England needs
bread, for which she pays the West
S20,OOO,00O year, she also needs
provisions which includes all forms
of meat-and for that, and poultry
in addition imported from the West,
New England pays the farmers of
these Western states $50, 100000 a
year. Moreover, the people of the
East want some butter to spread on
their bread, and they do not make
enough at home and they pay the
West over S3,000,000 year for
that. Then New England needs a
good deal of lumber, hardwood and
pine, and there are just three states
from which she gets it, Michigan,
Wisconsin and Minnesota, and she
takes SIS, 100000 year of Western
lumber, principally from Michigan.
Then of copper and lead and salt and
hides and lumber, which are taken
from the Western states, in the ag-
gregate about S5O,OOO,OOO more.
The aggregate, you will observe. is
well up to 100000, 900.
This little bit of New England
of which Mr.. Dickinson speaks con-
temptuously as only having 4 900, 900
of people, this little bit of frozen
place on the northeast coast of the
United States, takes 60,000,000
worth of cotton from the Southern
states, and she goes down to Penn
sylvania and Maryland and West
Virginia with their coal and iron and
steel, and of the products of coal,
iron and steel she takes $58, 900
more Then she takes as large an
amount of petroleum and hemp and
rice and fruits of all kinds, and in
the grand aggregate, that little bit
of piece of country, scarcely so
large as the state of Illinois-six lit
tie states-takes more than $780,
100000 worth of material from the
other states of the Union, and in the
grand exchanges between East and
West makes the trade profitable to
both and thus keeps the money at
home instead of sending it beyond
the sea.
The total value of products that
we sent to Old England last year of
all imitable articles was 1926, 00O,-
900. Now, gentlemen, if you want
to know what the value of the home
market at your door is, by the. ex-
change of industries, see what A. 00,-
900 of people engaged in the arts
and industries of life can take from
you at your door and among your
fellow citizens, as compared with
100000 900 beyond the seas. Blaine

A nssbanA' letter.

Has wife right to take letters from

written to him BY another person! That
iss kgal eonundrum which . Georgia
Judge has just had to answer.
A woman suspected that her husband
was sscrstsly corresponding with another
woman. She quietly undertook to get
hold Of sons Of the ardent missivss and
succssdsd. Thsrsupon she brought .
suit for divorce and proposed to use them
70 establish her case. The husband,
however. applied to the Court for an or.
dsr rsssoripg the documents to his posses.
aion.
u cpposition to this IL was aegusd
thss husband and vile are one, and
hence that wife cannot legally steal
from her husband. The weakness Of
this argument was that while husband
and wife were one by The old common
law, that one was invariably the hus-
band. Bat this legal fiction Of thsre be.
ing one has vanished since the enact.
msnt Of statutes snlarsing and increasing
the rights Of . married woman and max
ias her in many rsapects an indepsndent
lsaAl identity. While her rights have
bsen extended her liabilities have besu
cossapondingly increased.
Ths Judge held that the wife in this
cass had no right to take her husbands
letter. ard ordered them to BE- returned
to him.

The French Situation.

The recent overturn of the French Min
istry by coalition of the Monarchists,
Napoleoni-ts aud extreme Republicans is
not encouraging to those who have in
dulged In halting hopes of wise and
pacific government in France under prcsi-
dent Carnot. 1t is very probable that the
three factions having successfully united
on the single proposition of revising the
Constitution, to which the government
was opposed, thus precipitating "A cabinet
crisis, will not he able To accomplish much
more at present. Propositions for the
revision of the French Constitution have
often been made since il was adopted, but
thus far have resulted in nothing. While
the factions have been able to obtain ma
jorities that the fundamental laws needed
change, they have never been able to ac-
complish any Affirmative results. They
have been and probably will now be una
bile To agree upon the details of revision.
The conservative Republicans realize the
imperfectious of the Constitution, which
was made largely by positive enemies or
doubtful friends of Republican institu-
tions, hut they think the work of change
and amendment had better he postponed
to n future time Thus it is likely the
moderate Republicans will remain masters
of the situation, and that Garnet aud the
new Ministry will be able to continue a
pacific policy. Boulangrr and the noisy
crowd which supports him are a menace,
largely because the monarrhists and I'M
perialists make use af them to accomplish
their designs. They can be made utterly
powerless for mischief only by the com
pletc union and thorough organization of
all the sincere aud pacific Republicans.
The safety and wise rule of France can be
secured only by the permanent mainte-
nance of two great political parties, anal
ogous tn what have existed in England for
two centuries, and in the United States for
nearly the entire period of its national
existence. BY an memorable law third
parties, independent groups, and factions
are fruitful source of corruption and
peril to constitutional nations.
