WU'S PERTINENT QUESTION.
How Senator Hale of Maine Went Down Be-
fore the Chinese Diplomat.

Senator Eugene Hale, of Maine, told
recently with amused chagrin ola pas
sage at arms he had with Mr.. WI, the
Chinese minister, says the New York
Tribune. The treatment of the mis-
sionaries in the far east was under dis
cussion, and the senator had trotted
out a number of instances of maltreat.
ment, and even worse, that the mis-
sionaries had met with at the hanGs of
their eastern brethren. The senator
then pointed out to the minister that
this was hardly the way in which the
missionary should be received, and
that liberty OF faith should be ac-
corded their subjects by eastern rul-
ers. All through this homily the Chi
nese minister had grinned sympathet-
ic ally, but trlHe derisively.
''Liberty of religious thought, Ell -
WI inquired tentatively when his
chance came. "You do not always give
liberty of religious thought in this
country: you sometimes persecute the
missionary in these great United
States, Think" To this, needless to
say. the Junior senator from the Pine
Tree State interposed a vigorous de-
NAL
mo, you never do such things here,
never! You never prosecute the poor
missionary You are to high minded.
You have too much freedom of thought
for that !" And here Wu's derisive
smile grew diabolical. "How about
that Levantine affair ?"
"Levantine affair."" was the puzzled
inquiry.
Yes, Levantine affair; affair at Lee
want. What did you do there :"
And then the senator suddenly re-
membered the facts of Mormon mis-
sionarv at Levent, Me. The keen &C.
lestial eye of the Chinese minister
saw the look of understanding in Sen
ator Hale eye, and he drove the nail
home.
"What did you do with that Nor
mon missionary at Levant, Ell: You
gave him what is called the tar and
feathers is it not so - But the sem
atOr had no response at hand.

A GRIM PACE With DEATH.
Fatally injured Miner Wanted to Kiss Wife
goodbye.

From the Philadelphia Record.
John Yetzke was fatally injured at
Natalie colliery last evening, and knew
he was going to die. After being lift
ed in an ambulance he told the men
that he would try to keep alive If they
would whip up the mules so that he
could reach home in time to kiss his
young wife goodbye. He lived a
distance of three miles from the
mines.
The mules were urged to their best
speed, and despite the rocking of the
ambulance down the mountain road
the dying miner kept crying to his
comrades TO hurry up. When the Lee
high Valley Railroad on the suburbs
of this place was reached a long freight
train blocked the tracks. When Yetzke
learned of the delay he fell back
senseless
Shortly afterward the track was
clear, and when the home of the min
er was reached his wife rushed out and
placing her arms about the blood
stained neck of her husband kissed
him number Of times. The miners
eyes opened and, with faint smile of
recognition, he gave few gasps and
was dead.

PaternaIism in Education.

The Richmond Times" has something
TO say on the dangers of paternalism in
common school education. This is apropos
Of a proposition that the teachers in the
public schools OF Virginia be required TO
lecture the children on the evils of ''alco-
holism." The paper in question is horri-
fed at the idea, and contends that the
temperance question is a moral question
and if this sort Of thing continues Young
Nirginians will be taught religion and
politics in the public schools. IT also full
inmates against the paternalstic" law
which cOmpels a father. in some States. TO
send his children TO school for a certain
part of the year whether he is willing or
not. The idea is that children must be
taught TO be independent and self-assert-
i've, and not to depend upon Government
rather than on their own exertions
1t hardly seems necessary to become ex-
cited over the simple idea that school
children should be taught the physical
evils of alcoholism. This is not a moral
but a physiological question. II there is
anybody. in Virginia or elsewhere, who
thinks that drunkenness is a good thing
in itself it would be interesting to hear
his arguments. The more teaching chii-
dren can have about the dangers which at
tend the excessive use of strong liquors.
especially those which are adulterated.
the less likely they will be to become
drunkards 1t is not at all necessary 10
teach them teetotallism: only physiology.
The effect which the excessive use of al
cohol has on the nerves and brain and other
organs of the body is no more a religious
question" than diagram OF a hydrostatic
press. or lesson on sanitary methods OF
drainage
As to the law compelling parents TO
send their children to school, there are a
number Of States below Mason and Dixon's
line who're tiai5 law ought 10 be passed
and enforced If the Kentucky mountaineer
had been supplied with schoolhouses in
stead of stills, and books instead of bowie
knives. he would be a more useful citizen
than he now is. and not nearly so trouble
some to the militia. The same is true Of
the poor white" population in other
States, to say nothing of the negro whose
ignorance makes him an easy prey TO cor
rupt politicians and shrewd business men,
and keeps him, in many sections. almost
as poor as he was when freed. What the
average American citizen needs is train
ing-thorough teaching in the three RS,
that he may know what is going on in the
world and be able to keep lis own ac-
counts; along with this. such training for
his hands as will enable him to make him.

WEDNESDAY. JANUARY "a, 1869.
The Roberts Debate.

The speech of Mir Littlefeld OF Maine,
in the House of Representatives yesterday,
in support of the minority report of the
committee in the Roberts case, was mas
terly constitutional argument II was lis
tened TO with the closest attention by
members. and by citizens who crowded the
galleries Ii was so well received and so
generously applauded as to justify an i'm
preston that its convincing logic may pro-
duce decided effect upon the final vote
and save the popular branch of Congress
from the stupendous blunder of establish
ing an unworthy and unconstitutional
precedent.
Mr.. Littlefield spoke for two hours, but
the telling points of his speech in which
he utterly demolished the arguments OF the
majority, can be stated in a few sentences
He declared that. under the proposition ad-
yanced by the majority. no man could tell
whether he possessed the qualifications for
membership until be stood al the bar OF
the House; and denied that the precedents
cited in support of an assumption that the
House had the right to add qualifications
bic or in any way related to the case.
But Mr.. Littlefeld in contravention of the
majority position did offer a precedent
which, as he stated was -'on all fours''
with the matter in hand He cited the
action of the Senate in 1862. in the Stark
case. when the Senator-elect was permit
ted to take the oath under d report from
the Judiciary Committee. which. while de-
claring him guilty of treason against the
United States. decided that he ought to
be seated without prejudice 20 subsequent
proceedings" In view Of this action Mr.
Littlefeld asked how the gentleman from
Ohio, Chairman Tayler, could say that nc
precedent against exclusion existed in the
American Congress.
Constitution and precedent both admon-
ish MS that the House Of Representatives.
while it undoubtedly has the power to ex-
pei a member for any cause il may deem
sufficient, has no right TO determine the
qualifications Of a member necessary to
entitle him to a seat. by any rule other
than that plainly laid down in the Consti-
tuition Of the United States. and that rule
is not an elastic one. but STRICT iuris.
The hast thiug the majority OF the Rob
erts committee could do would be to with
draw their report. and offer that Of the mi
nority as a substitute. This course would
be acceptable to the country which is be-
ginning to realize the stupidity. illegaity
and cowardice Of an action proposed under
pressure of a public outcry. And it would
save the House of Representatives from
the modification of having its precedent
declared by the Supreme Court unconstitu-
tional and defensive Of the right Of self
government guaranteed TO the American
people by their basic law
