FIERY F%RENCHMEN.

The suppressions in the Decoration Scam
dial the Subject of a Tilt.
PARIS, Feb. AIN the chamber of dep
uties M. De Cassignac, in the course of
the debate OIL questions relating to the
recent decoration scandal, declared that
Justice had been prevented from taking
it's course, and had been paralyzed by
political intervention. The government
ought to produce the evidence it pos
sessed, and he demanded that it do so.
M. Floquet% protested against the disclos-
ure of judicial documents. M. DeCassig-
mao requested NJ. Floquet not to interfere
in the debate. M. Floquet advised M.
De Cassignac not to use so. threatening a
bone, declaring that it frightened nobody,
but made the gentleman assuming it APP
pear ridiculous. M. De Cassignac retort-
ed that such language was not ft for the
pot house. Afterwards NJ. De Cassignac
alluded to d. Noquet's cry of "Vive
Cologne" %whereupon the latter ex.
claimed. "Y0ur patriotism is on a level
with your politeness." NJ. De Launay
charged NJ. Fallieres, minister of justice,
with having opposed the arrest of the
guilty parties to the scandaIous proceed.

Justifying the conduct of the government.
The order of the day was moved, and
adopted by a vote of 305 to 175.
Intense Excitement Throughout Europe.
VIENNA, Feb. 4.-The Abend Post, in
Its issued of Friday, publishes the text
of the treaty concluded between Austria
GGeFmany in 1879. The action of the
government in causing the publication of
the convention simultaneously with its
publication in the German papers, is con-
sidered as a warning to Russia and other
powers e~ndeavoring to divide Austria
and Germany. II is stated that Italy, in
1877, accepted all of the stipulations OF
the treaty as the basis of the triple alli-
ance. The publication. of the treaty ia
believed to have resulted from the cordial
relations recently conspicuously notice
able between Baron M%ohenheim, Russian
ambassador to France, and NJ. Flouquet,
the French minister of foreign affairs,
and creates intense excitement through
out Europe.

TO OUR COLLEGE FRIENDS.

Imperative duties compelled us to lay
aside the pen last year, which for a
brief period represented Alma College
in the college department of this paper
We now desire to say that clrcumstan-
ces are so favorable that we are again
permitted to WELD the pen in the inter-
est of the institution we SO much love.
In entering upon this arduous task
we respectfully solicit the cooperation
of both faculty and students to make
this department not only interesting
but spicy and instructive. We desire
10 allay any appreheusions which may
arise, by informing one and all that
there will be nothing inserted in this
column from a spirit of prejudice
or desire TO work mischief, but tout
an cOntrdire to promote a closer fellow
ship among the students. The respOn-
sibility of this department rests entirely
upon the correspondents and not upon the
editor. This much for the renewal of
our acquaintance with you.
Miss Ross has training class of thir-
ty members.
Ladies hall is full to overflowing and
more are coming.
We learn that y. w. is an exceedingly
happy man-shake.
We are glad to learn that Beckner is
going to remain with us this year.
President Hunting gave a very kind,
interesting and instructive address of
welcome to the students Wednesday
morning.
Blanchard S curly head and Mckee 5
smiling countenance have been visible
at all trains welcoming the old and new
boys, and girls.
Poor boys. how timid they are in the
presence of the fair sex. We venture
to prophesy that that embarrassment
will soon be thing of the past.
The students reception at the Col
lege will take place this evening. Out
side friends are invited to attend and
get acquainted with each other.
Many of the old students are on the
ground and We are glad to see their IA
miliar faces. New ones are pouring in
and we extend To them a heartfelt well
come.
As we have begun another year may
the good fellowship which existed be-
tween the town and college last year he
strengthened and extended during this.
May God bless the faculty and students.
as they enter upon their duties and may
much COOL be accomplished, as we le-
lieye there will be.

COLLEGE OPENING.

Our new institution, which, one year
ago was dedicated TO higher learning
and for which so many fond hopes
were fostered, has on the eve of its Sec
ond year surpassed even the most san
guine expectations.
These cherished hopes have been
fully realized and Gratiot Co. boasts
to-day of college which is the peer of
any in Michigan.
Alma College may justly claim
faculty, which for scholarship, ability
experience and christian character is
not surpassed by any like body in the
state.
Even the first year, the friends Of
this institution, were justly proud Of
the choice. which the executive Board
made in its selection of Instructors
men Of eminent piety and zeal-men
consecrated to the propagation Of chris
tan educatiOn-men whose pN-emi-
nent publications. for educating the
youth of our land and moulding chris
tian characters have been recognized,
not only by the people of one state,
but by a long circle of prominent edu-
Gators throughout many.
Although the corps of instructors
was strong in the beginning, it has been
materially strengthened by the acces-
sion of such men as Rev. Kendall
Brooks, ID. d., eX-president of Kaama-
700 College, Prof. Butler, an eminent
minister of the gospel, from Ill. and
Miss Ross, who has "A national fame as
kindergarten instructor.
Wednesday morning witnessed the
opening of the second year of Alma
College-m opening which made glad
the hearts of its friends.
The beautiful chapel was almost full

MAHONE,s DEGRADATION.

The old saying, "Start dog down hill
and every one will give him kick to
hasten his DESCENT" is being verified in
the case of little BILLY MALONE. There
never was such an imperious boss as
this guerilla partisan while in power.
He ruled his party with rod of iron.
But the very moment the Democrats in
Virginia ousted him out of his seat in the
United States senate, MALONE began
to realize the ingratitude political
parties are capable of. There would
have been no Republican party in Vir-
ginia if it had not been for MALONE.
He created it and blew the breath of
life into its nostrils. He was the means
of giving the Republicans control of the
United States senate for several years.
And yet now he cannot find Republic
can in his own state or in the nation to do
him reverence. The young Republican
leaders in Virginia who grewinto prom
inence under MAHoNE's tutelage treat
him with Scorn. They not only refuse
to take him into their confidence, but
they actually revile and denounce him.
Shorn of his power, MAHoNE has no al
tentative but to take the abuse his late
followers heap upon him.

SLY SENATOR CULLoM.

Like DICKENS Joey B, Senator Gull
LON is tough and devillsh sly" He
has been buffeted by the winds and
waves of political storms for too many
years not to recognize an impending
squat when he sees it in time to get out
of it's course himself.
That's why the willy senator isn't
taking very kindly to the idea sug-
gested by some of his enthusiastic
friends that he become presidential
candidate. Doubtless he has the fever
as badly as any one of the numerous
aspirants, for where is the man who
would refuse to be president if the oc-
cupancy of the Office lay with himself?
But Senator CULLoAf's political sagac-
ity stands HIM in good stead.
He recognizes that this is again a
Democratic year; that the great mass
of the people are demanding contiu-
ance of Democratic control of national
affairs, and that the Republican candi-
date. whoever he may be, must suffer
inevitable shipwreck. He, for one, does

Anxious Candidates.

PITTsBURG, Pa. April %. - The
hronicle-Telegraph editorially to-day
claims to have information of bold
scheme to control the Republican presi-
Dental nomination. The plan is to
stampede the convention for Mr.. Blaine,
with the expectation that if he does re-
fuse the nomination, his declination
will not be received until after the
adjournment of the convention.
In this event the national con-
mittee will be called upon to name the
man. The committee, it is claimed, is
controlled by those at the bottom of the
scheme, men who were brought into po-
litical prominence by their association
with Mr.. Blaine in previous campaigns.
In fairness to the claims of other emf
nent Republicans who are not candi-
dates, if Mr.. Blaine will accept the
nomination, that gentleman is urged
to plainly reaffirm his position before the
convention assemblies.

A CONVERTED CRINAMAN.
A Chicago Celestial Joins tho
Baptist Church,

CHICAGO, April 29.-Chun Sin, a
Chinaman, was received into member
ship in the Emmanuel Baptist church
last evening. The building was crowded
with fashionable congregation, and
Rev. George G. Lorimer had just
preached sermon specially prepared
for the occasion. Taking him by the
hand DR.. Lorimer said: "On confession
of your faith in the Lord Jesus Christ,
| baptize you, Chun Sin, in the name of
the Father and the Son and the Holy
Ghost"
While saying the words the preacher
bent down the form of the candidate
until he was totally immersed in the
water, and as he came up the choir sang
"All Hail the Power of Jesus Name"
while the congregation dispersed.
Chun Sin is the first Chinaman who
ever united with the Baptist denomina-
ton in Chicago. The MethodistS num-
Der several Mongolians among their
numbers, and one belongs to the Pres
byterian church. Two years ago Chun
Sin joined the Wabash Avenue Chinese
Sunday school. There he was converted
to Christianity, and his baptism last
night was the result.
