instrumental in making us the grand ma
tion we are to-day, which, watered by the
perennial springs of human liberty, re-
gardless of false claims Of divine right or
sacred privilege, sweeps forward to its
destiny. 1t has almost filled the measure
of this American continent. From the
brimming lips Of its refreshing streams Of
human freedom may we soon see it flood
the dark nations of the old d0wn-trOdden
world from which we sprang, everywhere
sweeping out the garbage Of kings and
arist0cracies and lifting young republics
upon its dancing waters.
It was another conflict Of the ages; an
ments Of good and evil. 1t was human
slavery that threw down the gauge Of
battle. 1t was not the American people.
The vast armies Of Lee, Bragg and Stone
; wall Jackson were but the pawns in the
mighty game played by slavery; the old
age and the new struggled for supremacy
on the arena Of the present. 1t was an
between 6arbarism and civilization. ~

THE CHINEsE GOING.

The Chinese look meek, but they are not always as meek as they look. It now appears that in China they are capable of resenting the treatment which has been given numbers of the race in this country. The Chinese government has taken no retaliatory action, although it is quite within it's power to in- fict upon us much more serions blow than any we have given or could give; but that the first irritation of the Chinese people has settled into everlasting ill will and given rise to an effective if silent form of retaliation appears to be accepted by our business houses as only too true. For some reason, at any rate, our exports to China have fallen and are still falling, and 8 recently issued government report shows that in the matter of our two chief articles of export to China cotton cloths and mineral oils-the falling off in the last nine months has been $1 ,400,- 900 and 1,s00, 900 gallons respectively.
 The New York Chamber of Commerce has paid attention to the matter. It was not to be supposed, says the annual report of that body, that an ancient and sensitive nation would submissively endure such legislation as was adopted by the last congress in regard to it's subjects. The old friendly feeling which existed between our merchants and those of China have gradually changed, and our citizens engaged in that trade are already suffering from this alienation. < The question is delicate in many aspects, but we trust that it will be finally solved in accord with the liberal spirit which the American government has usually manifested in it's dealings with foreign nations. If not we must not be surprised to see this once profitable commerce pass from America, and, if England persists in her policy, from British hands also, into that of the Germans, with whom there cannot arise any such race con- hict as the immigration of the Mongolian has caused on the Pacific slope.
 This is warning worth needing. It is evident that if the Chinese must go they are going to take something with them. There is reported decided reaction in public gen. timent in California, where the anti Chinese feeling has been the strongest.

not understand the Hindustani language he would not claim him, but if he did he would consider the dog belonged to him. When the case was called in conrt, the soldier spoke something in the Hindu tongue, and the dog immediately recognized him, and, running through the crowd, jumped into the witness box and fawned on the soldier"
 Mir. Lincoln said that this was a similar case to one which occurred in Savannah many years ago, before steamships went to that port. A gentleman owned a very valuable mocking bird, of which he thought 8 good deal The bird was stolen. The gentleman was very much put out about it, and hunted everywhere to recover it. He heard of a vis- ltor from the North who had purchased g mocking bird and was about to leave the port on sailing vessel The gentleman con- cluded that he would go down to the vessel to see If the bird was not his. Upon reach ing the vessel, sure enough he found 8 man with naocking bird which he at once reeog- nized as the one which he lost. He told the visitor that the bird belonged to him, and the visitor asked how he could recognize the bird from any other, and was unwilling to give it up until some evidence had been given of ownership.
 The Savannahian finally said that he would make a complaint before a magistrate, and if he did not prove by the bird itself he would not make any further claim to it. So together they went before Magistrate Rail- lOTO, WHO udu HIS OIHC0 aU the IllQe ID 8 IlbLlo building where the Custom house now stands. The complaint was made and the claimant of the bird said that he would prove that the mocking bird was his by the bird itself. The magistrate was somewhat surprised, and ask- ed, "How are you going to do thats"
 The gentleman replied that he would whis. tie an air, aud if the bird took it up and fol- lowed him, it ought to be sufficient evidence of ownership. If the bird did not follow him, then he would make no further claim to it.
 He whistled the tune of 'sSt. Patrick's Day in the Morning." and the bird joined in whis- tied it sthrough without interruption. The magistrate said: s'I am satisfied the bird is yours. I don't want any further evidence of the fact of ownership" The visitor was charmed, and wanted the bird badly, and of fered $100 for it, but the owner refused to part with it for any amount.

SHE GOT THEE WHIsKEY.
How a Pennsylvania Woman MaR- aged 10 open Barrel of Corn

aged 10 open a Barrel of Corn
 Juice.
 From the fittsburg Dispatch.I
 There is story from the old times when the prohibition idea was not 80 strong in the rural districts near here as it Is to-day.
 At certain farm in Moon to Knship there lived & good man who had the misfortune to be linked to incorporate wife. She would drink, so the veracious chroniclers of Moon township inform me, any two men un- der the table. At harvest time in those days it was considered indispensable to have for the farm help.
 It happened one year that when the har- vest came around the old farmers wife had
 been celebrating rather heavily, and yet her desire for ardent spirits was unappeased. The question which agitated the old farmers mind was how to keep the barrel of whiskey for the harvest2rs out of reach. He was afraid that if she and the whiskey were left alone in the house together there would not only be no whiskey, but also no dinner for the harvesters.
 He took counsel, and the result was that the barrel of whiskey was slung up to the center beam of the barn and lashed firmly in such place that it could only be reached and lowered to the ground by 8 man who could climb out to it. Then he and the help went into the field with the comfortable as- l surance that the barrel of whiskey was be- | yond the old lady's reach.
 But she had seen the barrel rolled out to l the barn, and as soon as the men were away 1 from the house she went out to reconnoitre. | She was somewhat irate when she saw the
 barrel hung up out of her reach. | It took her ten minutes to decide on g 1 course of action. Then she returned to the
 house and picked out a clean washtub | With this tub and her husbands rife she re- turned to the barn. She placed the tub di rectly under the barrel. Raising the rife tc | her shoulder she fired at the barrel, sending l 8 ball clean into the center of the barrel. | Down came stream of the golden juice | of the rye, playing tune on the tub, which made the old woman smile sweetly. l There is no need to go into details. Wher | the harvesters came in from the field they | found the old woman asleep beside the tub Some whiskey was left, but the dinner was , not cooked.

 The results of the attempt to enforce pro- hibition in Iowa are given in 8 letter by Mir. Webster, collector of the Dubuque dis trict Consisting of forty mine counties in the northern part of the State), to B. F. Wright of Charles City, the 'ffathsr' of the late prohibition amendment. The Iowa law makes the possession by the defendant of government license prima-facie evidence of guilt. To escape this provision of the law, many of the applicants take out their licenses under mythical names, and still a larger number of dealers do business without a government license, preferring to risk detection by the internal revenue officers to creating evidence against themselves before the State courts. After citing efforts to enforce the law, Collector Webster says: ''From these facts it may be inferred that Governor Larrabee was not correct when he said to Nebraska audience that prohibition was enforced in eighty of the ninety-nine counties in Iowa. On the contrary, there is rot county in the district nor a town of 300 inhabitants or over for which retail liquor dealers licenses have not been issued, and in every county the number of licenses issued, when taken together with the number of dealers as compared with the number in existence before the prohibitory law took affeoE

WHY GABLE BREAKS.
The DolIcate Instruments Used to A
 eestaiR she Localsty of rbe Breach


 certain the Locality of the Breach.
 When the Ponyer Quertier, a French steamer built expressly for laying ocean ca- bles, was in Boston harbor week or two ago, many pleasure seekers, as well as news gatherers, boarded her, intent upon learning something about cables and men who care for them. One inquiring person button- holed the first officer aud piled him with questions.
 'How do you know, when the cable lies way out in midocean, when you have to re- pair break"
 "Oh, that's easily explained. Deeply bur- jed as these cables are beneath the trackless level of the oceans surface, the exact path in which each one of them lies is we'll known by series of chart indications which were made at the time of their construction. By means of computations based upon these sources of information captain can guide his vessel to any spot along the line in mid- ocean, where no guide posts but the lights of heaven exist, and know of certainty that he is within very short distance of point directly over the enmbent cable hur- dreds of fathoms below"
 You said a little while ago that if there was break in the cable between Cape Ann and Ireland that the approximate position of the break could be ascertained by the opera tor at Canso. Now how could he tell any thing about it except that communication was stopped?"
 ''Well, it is one of the marvellous things in modern invention that he is able to accom- plish this. The delicate instrument called the galvsnometer will tell him, in the space of very few seconds, at what spot in the hundreds of miles length of cable, down among the dark recesses of the oceans bed, the accident to the wire has occurred. The acuteness of the instrument lies simply in it's ability to register with unfailing accuracy the amount of resistance the unbroken wire gives. With this information, and knowing already the other conditions of the size of the wire and the amount of it's resistance per mile, the operator can calculate the distance from the station at which the break has oc- cured If there should be two breaks he, of course, can give information regarding the first one only, since the electrical connection is stopped there. If the operator at the outer end should make similar test of his unbroken portion, and it should be found, upon comparing the two results, through some other perfect cable, that they did not supplement each others distances, then it would be evident that there were at least two breaks at known distance from each other. Such instances have not occurred, however" <"

CHANGE OF MOTION INTO HEAT. A Curious Illustration of the Trans
 formation.

From the Boston Journal of Commerce.l The opinion is now commonly accepted by scientific men that all bodies, substances, gases and liquids arc composed of multi tudes of particles or molecules of almost in- conceivable smallness, and these are sup posed to be i'll motion among themselves this motion, moreover, being heat; that is to say, heat is neither more nor less than a kind of motion, and this internal vibration can be transmitted into perceptible mechanical movement; or, on the other hand, mechanic cal movement can be converted into the in- visible motion called heat.
 How the change takes place no one knows, but the change is none the less fact. As illustrating this point, writer in the Me- chanical Engineer cites the fact that the diff ference between 8 solid and gas is simply that the motion of the particles or the mole cules of the gas is much greater in extent
 than is the motion-of the particles of the solid, some gases also having greater range
 of motion than other gases; and if by any
 means the motion be taken out of gas, say
 by compressing it into vessel the sides and
 ends of which reduce the range of move.
 ment, then, nothing is lost in nature, the
 invisible and insensible motion of the gas,
 which it has lost, reappears as heat in visi-
 ble form, and it is found that the sides of the vessel become hot.
 Further, the oxygen which has combined
 with coal has very considerable range of internal motion, but when the oxygen has
 combined with the coal another gas, known
 as car bonic acid gas, Is produced; and the particles of this gas having much smaller range of motion than the particles Of the oxygen have, the difference appears in the form of heat.

What are known by the name of iron bricks have been satisfactorily introduced as paving material in some parts of Germany These bricks are made by mixing equal parts of finely ground clay, with the addition of per cent of iron ore. The ingredients thus mixed together are then moistened with a solution of % per cent of sulphate of iron, to which fine iron ore is added, until the mass shows a consistency of 3S degrees, Baume. After this the compound is shaped in press, dried, dipped once or more in nearly concentrated solution of finely ground iron ore and then baked in an oven for about forty-eight hours in a reducing flame.

EDITORIAL NOTES.

People sometimes wonder at the remark able increase in the population of Chicago. But a St. Louis tells how it is done. "In the first place." he says, "they count in the population of all the suburban towns which are not part of the city at all. And then when these suburban towns become 8 part of the city, they add their population to the aggregate population previously claimed, 50 that large number of people are counted twice." As a St. Louis man makes this charge it is only fair to accept it with con- siderable reserve.
