The public is assured that in
twenty years it will be possible to
go by rail from New York to st.
Petersburg, the Russian metropolis.
A nephew of Engineer Gilpin is con-
vinced that road can be construc-
ed across the Behring strait. He
says the engineering difficulties are
snrmountable, and that money is
the required substance for complete
success. 1t is asserted that capital
can be found both in England and
America and the scheme may not

Chinese Retaliation.

The view the Chinese take of
their exclusion from the United
States is an interesting one, as set
forth by the Chinese minister. lie
says unless the exclusion law is
repealed his government will re-
taliate and drive Americans out of
China. There are millions of Amer
lean dollars invested in China, aud
comparatively few Chinese dollars
invested in America. II is there
fore Americans who will suffer
most. The exclusion law was in
direct violation of this country's
most solemn treaty with China.
The Chinese idea of where power is
lodged came out in the remark that
Mr.. Blaine had been requested
repeatedly to have this law repealed,
but no answer had been returned to
the demands. Evidently the Celes-
tial idea Of it is that Mr.. Blaine can
repeal the law all himself if he
wishes.
The minister made several very
neat points. Speaking of cheap
Chinese labor he said it had built
our western railroads and success
fully carried to completion vast
industrial enterprises that would
have been impossible without it.
Chinese cheap labor had boeu a
success wherever it had been tried.
Unansweroble was the minister's
final hit: "You say Cinnamon
come to America and save all the
money they can and then take it
home with them. Well, isn't that
exactly what every American in
China is doing?

GOoCHLAND c. H., VA, June ls.-lSpe-
cial. At meeting Of the officers of the
Court and members of the Bar of the County
Court of GOochland, held here yesterday,
Judge j. NJ. Tricc presiding, the following
resolutions, offered by Judge A. Il. Leake
and seconded by Colonel b. o. James and
Mr.. X. ID. James, were unanimously
adopted.
ave, the officers ana members of the Court
and Bar for the county Of GOOchland. have
learned with profound regret of the death Of
our friend and brother. Frederick y. Flem-
ing. and desire To put upon record some tosti-
mon al of our affection ana esteem ana the
honor In which we hold his memory. Mr.
Fleming was "A native Of GoOchland. of whom
she might be justly proud. He was the son Of
the late John :. Fleming, one of the greatest
lawyers OF his day, and inherited from the
latter talents Ofa very high order lie was
also an educated gentleman of strict n-
tegrlty, an afieciiOnate and faithful friend,
and genial and generous To fault. Selfish
ness was no component OF his nature, ana his
whole life was one Of unsolhsh devotion to
those who had claims upon him; and the
large sums of money, his genius frequently
enabled him To make, were appropriated t.
generous objects, andlittle spent on himself.
lie was man of great mOdesiy. singularly
cOnsderatc Of others, and Of most courteous
bearing. Owing TO the limited sphere In
which he worked. and other attendant cir
cumstanccs. neither his high and generous
character nor his great talents were fully
appreciated; and all we can now do Is 10 re-
cord This simple tribute 10 his worth and
memory.
'ResOlved, That we sincerely mourn the
death of Frederick n. Fleming who WIS q
faithful friend. and able lawyer, and excel
lert citizen, whose life was useful and valu-
able
"Resolved, That copies of these resolutions
he presented To the Circuit Court Of this
county, and sent for publication to TIE

And thcTeupon the resolutions were spread
upon the records OF the court, and Mr.. f.. r.

THE CRUISER VESUvIUS.
She Gets Aground and Is Probably
Damaged.

PHILADELPHIA, PA, June 1S.-The dyna-
mite cruiser Vesuyius, fifteen minutes after
casting loose from her mooriDgs this morn
ing at League Island, grounded on the spit
Of land that makes out at the point where
the Schuylkill empties in the Delaware,
Just west of the navy yard. several days
ago the cruiser was formally placed IN COM
mission. and has since been stationed at
League Island taking in stores. Lieuten-
ant Schroeder was placed in command.
upon receipt of orders to proceed with
his vessel to Brooklyn fires were started,
and shortly before O'Clock this morning
she cut away from the wharf. She had
hardly got to moving with anything
like speed when her forefoot
ran upon the spit, and in spite
of all the power Of her reversed engines
she remained fast, il being near high water.
Tugs were called for assistance, but they
were unable to move her, even upon
the top of flood tide. The efforts
were finally abandoned as the tide
commenced to fall, but were renewed in the
afternoon, and.at half-past o'clock the
combined work of her own engines
and two powerful tugs pulled he.
back in to deep water. She was
at once headed down the stream, for the
purpose OF asccrtainng if any damage had
resulted, but in a short time full speed was
run up, aud as an officer expressed ii, ''she
started for the breakwater running like
scared dog
II is not learned whether the boat was in
iured, but it is thougt she can hardly have
escaped some damage.
