from the following incident which we find in

the water and the goods badly damaged. He
had the damages assessed, and proposed mak

Herald, of last week "XX" finds fault with the

"XX" did not know thai there were some ex-
Itenses connected with Mr. Honck's presence
here that had to be met. The County Super
intendent's letter to the teachers, contained the
following: "If a place for meeting <itn be ob

SENATOR WJNDOM has introduced a
bill in Confess authorizing the establishment
of National Savings Banks, but with restric
tions which no voluntary association would
accept. The true method of securing the earn
ings of the laboring inari is the establishment
of postal savings banks, such as exist in Eng
land, Canada and Australia, and in three or four
countries of continental Europe which have
copied the example of England. The advan
tage of the postal system is not merely its uni
versal iiecessibilitv and convenience, but that
it would not require the expense of new build
ings aud only in a few large cities an addition
to the numberof officers. This economy would
enable the Government to transact the busi
ness on a slender margin and yet at a .profit to
the treasury. Besides, this is no untried or
ventnresome experiment. The postoffice sys
tem hns long been established in England and
several other countries, and it has steadily
grown in usefulness anil popularity wherever
it has been introduced. No objections which
can be made to it have the weight of a feather.
Our Government will sooner or later adopt it,
and every proposition which causes discussion
of the general subject will hasten the day.

THE anti-Chinese war in California
is being pressed with vigor. With the view to
testing the constitutionality of the act recently
passed by the Legislature prohibiting corpora
tions from employing Chinese laborers, a test
case has been made up by the arrest of the
President of the Sulphur Batik Quicksilver
Mining Company. This is the sequel to the re
tent street parades of the so-called "Working
men" who went from place to place in San
Francisco demanding that various corporations
should discharge their Chinese employes. In
addition to this assault the almond-eyed Celes
tials have been subjected to another attack
from another direction The San Francisco
Board of Health has declared the quarter
known as "Chinatown" a nuisance, ami steiw
will be immediately taken to put it into a de
cent shape or destroy it altogether. In this
last the people of Han Francisco will have
hearty sympathy. This reeking hole has been
a stench* and abomination for years and it is
high time that it was overhauled. If John
Chinaman proposes to live in American cities
he has got to learn some of the first principles
of decency, a matter in which it is the current
impression his education has been entirely
neglected.

came to the Sciota County Poorhouse, and had

all the remedies which had Itecn applied, the
Directors of the I'oorhouse resolved to use the
celebrated German Remedy. ST. J ACURS OH.,

the trial of one bottle, the patient was already

The Taking- of the Oonsus.
(special to Pittsburgh Gazette.]
WASHINGTON, March 7. —The Super
intendent of the Census has prepared
the commissions and instructions for
the supervisors in those States in which
the entire list has been confirmed, and
preparations will be made at once to
organize the force of enumerators and
prepare for the taking of the census in
such States, beginning on June Ist.
Xo commissions will be sent to "su
pervisors in the states where the nom
inations for supervisors are pending, or
where vacancies exist by reason of re
jections, and should the Senate persist
in these rejections it is probable that
some of the States will l»e ommitted in
the census of 1880. The entire list
of supervisors in Pennsylvania not
having been confirmed, no instructions
or commissions will be forwarded to
that State.
IF you want good Flour and a good
turn out, go to Walter k Boos' Mill,

HON. A. W. TAYLOR, of Indiana,
Indiana county, has been interviewed
bv the Pittsburgh Dispatch, and to the
inquiry, "Has there been any formal
attempt made to compel your delegates
to represent the party instead of Mr.
Cameron ?" replies:
"Not that I have heard. Ido not
think that it is necessary in our district.
The delegates know the sentiment of
the part}- well. If they misrepresent it
they will have to answer to their con
stituents. I not believe that Mr.
Long, who lives in Brookville, will dare
to vote for Grant. He has local politi
cal aspirations, and such a course would
certainly destroy all his hopes, As to
Mr. Buffington, of Armstrong, I under
stand that he is disposed to obey in
structions. It is really quite amusing
to see some of the delegates writhe, as
though caujrht in a vise, between Cam
eron and the people, trying the old but
always unsuccessful experiment of serv
ing God and Mammon."
The Dispatch remarks that "Mr.
Taylor had much that was interesting
to say by the way of contrasting the
method of the elder and younger Cam
eron. to the great disadvantage of the
latter. He believes that the vener
able ex-Senator would never have been
caught in the predicament which now
threatens to destroy the young Senator's
grip as the supreme party man
ager. Mr. Taylor was a delegate to
the Harrisburg Convention, and was
largely instrumental in bringing about
the determined stand taken by the sup
porters of Senator Blaine. He is also
an alternate to the Chicago Conven
tion, and if Mr. Bulliugtou's health will
not permit him to venture on the trip
to Chicago, his seat will be filled by a
man who is not afraid to represent his
party, even though such a course
would be in opposition to the Harris
burg commander."
Mr. Buffington is not in ill health, by
an v means, and will in all human prob
ability, attend the Convention, and if
he carries out the sentiments of the
Bepublicans of this district, which is
overwhelmingly for Senator Blaine,
he will disregard the instruction of the
Harrisburg Convention.— Armstrong
Republican.
Ladies' <«IIIII Circular.*
And Newports, at
BITTER k RALSTON'S.
THE method taken at Harrisburg to
give Pennsylvania influence and power
at Chicago was to bind all the mem
bers by an iron rule which represses
all independence and vitiates the
proper principle of representation.
The Xew York Bepublicans took a
different course. They dispensed with
the rule, but sent delegates of such
force, character and reputation as to
excite attention and insure respect.
The names of the delegates-at-large
arc known all over the country. Of the
district delegates three have been for
eign ministers; eight are or have been
representatives in Congress, and sev
eral have filled high State offices. A
small proportion only have merely
neighborhood reputation. There is dif
ference between the two systems, and
most people will thiuk that the advan
tage is with New York. Get the best,
and trust lo their judgment and fidel
ity at the time. About twentv of the
delegates are said to be for Senator
