The Argentine RepUblic.

There is arising in South America a
nation which bids fair to complete with
the United States in enterprise and popu-
lation. During the last year the Argen-
tine Republic added five thousand miles
of railroad 10 the four thousand which
had been built before. There will this
year be two hundred thousand immi-
grants, chiefly from the south of Europe,
There are over three thousand public
schools, and two hundred and thirty
thousand scholars, The chief cities are
lighted with electric light, and abund-
antly supplied with telephones. During
1887 four thousand vessels entered the
ports, and the revenue of the government
left surplus of six million dollars over
the expenses. The religion is Catholic,
and the language Spanish, although the
italian and the English are much used.

Little Phil Had an Idea That When Fellow is
Expected He Ought to Be There.
Governor Lionel A. Sheldon, of New
Mexico, who is now in Los Angeles, has
enjoyed long and honorable career in
public life. He served With distinction in
the War of the Rebellion. He was Mem-
Der Of Congress for years, and he has
been Governor of New Mexico, besides
holding other important offices. He was
an intimate personal friend Of General
Grant, the acquaintance having its begin
ming in the campaign that led to Vicks-
burg, and continuing until the great com
mander's death. Governor Sheldon never
met General Sheridan during the war,
but since then he has known Little Phil
well.
In connection with Grant and Sheridan,
Governor Sheldon relates an anecdote
which has never been in print before this
present occasion. It illustrates Grants
modesty and inclination TO honor others
rather than himself.
II had been member of Congress for
nearly six years., says the Governor,
'-wRen, in June, 1884, Congress Hall at
Cape May was opened. General Grant,
who was then President, several members
of his Cabinet, and many Senators and
Representatives, myself among the NUM-
Der, went down to the opening festivi-
ties. We returned On Sunday, and arriv-
ed in Philadelphia to find that We must
wait three hours fo- the train that was to
to carry Us to Washington. The pros
pect was naturally not an agreeable one,

EMPEROR AND CAR.

William and Alexander Breakfast Together
Aboard the Formers Yacht.
The cZar and czarina were the guests
OF Emperor William Tuesday morning at
an elaborate breakfast served on the
German imperial yacht HohenzoIiern.
The table was spread in the saloon of the
vessel and glittered with magnificent dis
play of gold silver, and glassware. The
whole affair was as informal as possible
in the presence of SO distinguished q
company, and the car and the emperor
again exchanged the heartiest express
sions of good wishes. At the close of
breakfast the farewells were cordial in
the extreme, and when, shortly after, the
czar and czarina left the vessel, the mon
archs saiuted each other profoundly.
Preparations were then made for the
sailing of the Hohenz0lIern, and very
soon afterward she steamed away for
Stockholm, amid the salutes Of the sur
rounding fleets and fortresses.

II is matter of regret that the Pan
Presbyterian council now in session at
London has been compelled to refuse the
offer Of S14O,0CU to found college at
Canton, China. ThecounciI cannot legal
ly hold property, and was not competent
to accept the gift. It is noticeable fact
that educational institutions have not
been looked upon as valuable accessories
in mission work by the societies of the
Christian denominations generally. in
China the great bulk of the converts have
been thus far among the lower class. In
india the presence of a large English
population has stimulated some work IN
that direction; but the visit of Pundita
Ramabai to this country has served to
show the needs of education among the
upper class women of that country.

NEW YORK, July 28.-The congressman
who are investigating the immigration
affairs of the country resumed their
labors this morning. Paul Wolff, a
Washington correspondent of the
New York Stats Zeitung, stated that
some three years ago he was in
formed that there we're several
societies in Germany, and especially
in Bavaria, formed for the purpose of
sending discharged criminals to this
country. The witness laid his informa-
ton before Assistant Secretary of State
Porter and that gentleman wrote
to the American consul ct Munich on the
subject, who replied in December, 1885,
that there were no such societies. The
witness read extracts from the reports Of
one of these societies, showing that in
1883 twenty-seyen discharged convIcts
were sent to this country by these socie-
ties. The report says the worse the men
are and the larger the families they have
the better fitted they are to send to
America. The witness says that these
societies are not government affairs, but
that the royal counsel is president and
Prince Regent Tuitpold Is honorary pres
ident of one of the societies. In 1886
their report shows that out Of the $4,000
marks expended nearly half was used to
assist emigrants to come to this country.
The witness had no statistics for 1887, but
SAID he knew of cases occurring this year.
About two months ago he said that two
men came over from Saale, but were sent
back from Castle Garden. They after
ward returned to America by way of
London under assumed names. The wit
ness said of the German emigration that
DR.. Becker, director of the bureau of
statistics in Berlin. estimates that the
