ROME, January 6.-The Pope has In
nounced that he will receive the Presidents
of the English and American Colleges in
Rome and British pilgrims on the 10th
instant. The Pope's jubilee presents were
placed on exhibition at the Vatican to-day.
Foreign diplomats, q number of Roman
a~ristocrats and . host of other guests were
present. The Pope entered the hall where
the presents had been arranged at noon,
followed by forty.eight Cardinals and the
Pontiical Court. Cardinal Schiaffino read
an address. To this the Pope replied that
his soul was moved by the manifestations
OF love and v%sneration reaching him from
all parts Of the world. He regarded them
as an evidence Of the power Of the papacy
which the enemies Of the church vainly At
tempted to deny. The share taken by
sovereigns Of the world in the jubilee proved
they justly appreciated the importance OF
the papacy. He concluded by praising tho
organizers of the exhibition. Gen. Herman
Kanzler, formerly head of the Pontiical
army, is dead.

London special: A remarkable story
which was limited at a few weeks ago in the
gossip column of a society paper called
The Young Man, is going the rounds OF

some years ago young James Robertson
Blackie, Of the celebrated Glasgow firm of
publishers, fell in love with a fair American
girl, q niece OF the late President Arthur.
When she had finished her education in
Glasgow they were Professionally engaged
and she returned to the United States to
nurse her dying grandfather. After his
death, as a result OF the great strain and
she was attacked with fever. In
the midst Of her illness came the great
that shook Charleston to
and the
SHOCK N TERROR,
acting IN her enfeebled nerves, entirely
destroyed her sight. Eminent specialists
consulted, but they gave no hope
and at final joint consultation, it was
decided that nothing could
done to avert the calamity of life long
blindness. It was several days before her
could summon courage to inform
Ter OF the de.ision, but she received the
news with f.'rtitude. and Immediately
wrote a letter to her fiancee releasing him
rom the engagement. But the young
wasn't made OF that kind OF
and in less than two weeks was a

that he loved her and was ready to
her blind or not. This unexpected

Developing a Coal Mime.
The ways and Means Committee.

Unhappily for the condition of the
American people and the power and honor
of the nation, the decision of the question
of the symmetrical and complete diversif-
cation of our industries rests, for the pres
ent, with the adherents of the late South
ern Confederacy. The eighth section of
the first article of the Constitution of that
Confederacy prohibited the laying of "any
duties or taxes on importations from
foreign nations, TO promote Or foster any
branch of industry" Five of the eight
gentlemen whom Mr.. Speaker Carlisle, af-
ter frequent consultations with President
Cleveland, named as junto to which the
duties of the Committee on Ways and
Means should be confided, had sworn to
maintain and defend that Constitution
and Messrs. Mills, w. c. P. Breckenridge,
C. r. Breckenridge, Wilson and Turner
had, by serving in the Confederate army,
shown their willingness to lay down their
lives in behalf of Constitution that
would protect the South against the rob-
berries inflicted by the protective system.
They were not peculiar in holding thus
intensely to the faith of the British Cob
den Club Wm. ID. KELLEY, in the August

Peter Cooper on the Tariff.

In February, 1888, large labor protec-
tion meeting was held in New York, at
which letter from Peter Cooper was read
containing the following [ have noticed
in my own business life, extending over a
period Of nearly seventy years, that every
reduction of the tariff Tor the tariff for
revenue only plan) has brought wretched-
ness and ruin. 1t is the natural effect
from such cause. Nothing is more GER
tain than that the advocacy of free trade
comes from foreigners, who want to break
up our industries. They have done it sew
eral times already, and they mean to do ii
again. The laborers of the old world get
hardly enough to keep body and soul to-
gether, and that is the condition in which
the advocates of free trade are trying to
place our laborers."

Statement Regarding the sutter County
Grain Crops.
fCopyigf, 1Sss, Byte California Associoted Press
MARYsvILLE, August 9th.-The Sutter
County Farmer, one of the best authorities
in Northern California, will publish to-
morrow the following statement
"T The harvest may be said TO be prac-
tically over. A few only are running their
combined harvesters, but are closing on the
last round very fast. The crop throughout
the county has been good one, and fully
up to the average. True, many light fields
of wheat and barley were to be seen, but
on the other hand very many pieces OF
splendid grain could be seen in an hours
drive in any part of the county. Forty
bushels to the acre have been harvested,
and many fields went above it, while a
yield of 20 to 80 bushels soon ceased to ex-
cite remark after harvesting began. We
think We are justified in the assertion that
the quality of the wheat this year was
never before equaled. 1t is universally
clean, and weighs all the way from 81 to
65 pounds to the bushel. These weights
tell the story, inasmuch as 60 pounds is the
standard. Much grain has already been
sold and delivered at the various ware
houses in the county, and the farmers are
preparing for vacation"
The foundation for the new Odd Fellows
Hall at Yuba City has been laid.
