THE Daz! ¥ TRANSCRIPT NEVADA CITY, CAL.” Established in 1860. BROWN & CALKINS, Proprietors. Nera ty Ol Pres SATURDAY. MAY 18. If may not be ae jesnqntibered that the Bee su, that the discharge of Chinese by the owners of hydraulic m desired the aid of white r to them in their efforts to continuedestroying the lands of the valley—thus depriving white pase re ro to stand pepe hite meg Sie on wen! Hcl hy araulie i caliere won their result until the hyminers have won, for already have the whites been dismissed in ou ie excuse is . that the i do not pay well enough toafford white la Then they ought to be closed. Any calling that will not pay enough to support white men for attending thereto ought to be abandoned.-Sacramento Bee. We challenge the Bee to show a single instance where a white man has ever been discharged from a pro~ducing hydraulic~mine~in~ Nevada county to give employment to a Chinaman. Wesay there is not one word of truth in the Bee’s assertion that such a thing has been done. There have beensome instances where in getting ground ready to take out the gold Chinese have been employed ; but when mines get to the producing point the Chinese have. invariably’ been discharged and white men put to work. There is not a regularly operating hydraulic mine in the ‘State that-does not ‘*‘payenough to support white men,” and “there are nothing but white men employed in that .kind. It is in the ‘prospects” that the servile mongolian has been found, paving the way and cutting off the sharp corners as it were for his whiter skinned fellow being. But we don’t, want him even there any more. If he will step down and out, the white man will pave his own way and round off those corners for himself. If our contemporary knew anything about the subject it so dearly loves to howl of so much it would not, talk about hydraulic mining as ‘‘a calling that will not pay enough to support white men.” It is where a fellow is hunting for a mine and do: s‘nt know whether he is going to find one or not that he thinks he is too poor to pay three dollars a day for white help when he can get tinted. help for a dollar and a quarter, < —As-tothe Bee's assertion that the’ industry of hydraulic mining ought to_be-abandouedon--certain—conditions, we reply in the same words’ we used yesterday ; Some of the antislickensites and their newspaper organs maintain that if a mine owner can not afford to develop his claim to the producing point with white labor he should permit it to remain undeveloped. The fact that the big wheat raisers in the valleys depend principally upcn Chinese labor, and say that they would be ruined if deprived of that class of help, should make that element havea brotherly feeling for and be very charitable to: wards those mixer. who torerab> oad heathens, in ce See 3 THE MINERS’ CONVENTION, 7 ~e E}The San Francisco Report s:ys: ‘The Nevada Transcript sensibly suggests a Miners’ Convention, sc that the question at issue betweer the ranchers and the miners may bi fairly presented tothe people. We concur in the suggestion. The poorest mine in the State shows’ a hal"ance of more material wealth left it . the State than Dr. Glenn’s millior: bushels of grain, because the bulk of the money paid for the labor of producing the grain goes to China and i: made into golden calves and _ silver idols.” : See Tux Chicago Times thinks that the only outcome of the Shipherd investigation has been to show the contrast between Blaine and Belmont, an illustration of the wisdom of sending fourth-rate attorneys to Congress and retirirg men of first-class talente to private life. Itis an almost undisputed fact, that the effect of [ma. chine politics is to keep out of -office men of a higher order of ability, and to push to. undue prominence men of . attainments, who will be’ plie material in the hands of» the “bosses in the back“Pond, who ‘pull the wires. NIXE-TENTHS of the Chinen! ‘whe are now coming to America, are consigned to the railroad builders. They will be-employed at this work: for Bo < agoe aia and will then be -; Set loose to compete in all of. the ’ trades and. Occupstions, The hard~» est trial may yet be in store for us. Eohage they.will be sent to various orig aha 4-loors until the “amount is raised.” A NEW FIELD FOR MRS. JELLALCY. Many. of our readers doubtless remember the pious works of Mrs, Jellaby, asnarrated in Dickens’ novel “Bleak House.” While her family was suffering for the necessities of life the good lady was engaged in the philanthropic work of providing the natives of Booriboorila-Gha,—a_region somewhere in equatorial Africa—with the Gospel and red flannel shirts. We have in California many religious societies engaged in like works, presided over by Mrs. Je!labys, who collect nickels from little Sunday school children-to pay —the7 salary of missionaries in. foreign lands. We would call the attention of these well-meaning people to the depravity existing in onr midst in the counties of Yuba and Sutter. At the recent Anti-Debris Convention in Sacramento, Senator Davis of Yuba made a speech which is reported by the RecordUnion of May 3d, as follows : “‘Slickens has even invaded religion, and a Bishop rises up before his convention of clergymen at Sacramento on Monday and says in the slickens districts the spread of the gospel is checked by the poverty of the slickens-ruined people. _[Applause.]” We quute verbatim from the Record-Union. We do not know why these anti-debris delegates applauded the statement that ‘the spread of the gospel is checked” and that ‘‘slickens has invaded religion’ unless it be an expression of gratification at the fact of a reign of ° total depravity in the ‘‘slickens district.” Let pur missionary societies pause before sending abroad the contributions of the faithful and reflect whether it would not be better to reclaim the benighted regions which sent delegates to the Anti-Debris Convention. EEE @UR EXCHANGES. Half Minute Interviews With the __Chiefs of the Sanctum. CAN'T BY KILLED. (New York Sun.) It was said of Napoleon’s old guard that they knew how “to die, but did not know how to surrender. The Grant Guard do not know how to die, They still live, and will continue to survive as lung as there is a cob uf corn left in the public crib. TOO WARM FOR HIM, (8. F. Daily Exchange.) Political circles are agitated over arumor that the only Stoneman will publish a cavdin.a day or two declining to be a caudidate for Governor. We predicted the other day that he was as an early vegetable and quite likely to get wilted by the first heat of the campaign, THE CIRCUS PART OF RELIGION. (Oakland Times.) An Alameda preacher is to add a magic lantern to his stock in trade, and illustrate hie sermons with its aid. It may bea brilliant idea for a minister who cannot otherwise draw people to his church. If the magic lantern will not bring sinners” in sufficient numbers, he might secure the service of a clown, or permit bis congregation to smoke, It will be highly creditable to the yood people of Alameda if they let this preacher give his show to empty pews. A FIRE AsgaY. (Bodie Free Press.)The confidence with which the Democracy thinks it can carry California at the next election leads many to suppose that there has been a great deflection from the Republican ravks, If it is well fourded, there has been a large desertion. Now every man is capable .of judging in this matter for himself. Let zach one look about. him and_ see who it is that has deserted his prinviples. Where is there a leading man who’ bas stepped out of the ranks? Such ideas of desertion gain their currency by Democratic iteration only. Im Almost Too Greata Hurry. — —It-was.also.an Ohio man-who.whenaterrible storm set ‘in one night, rashed into the house of a neighbor and cried out: ‘Jonca, this is the ending up of earth.” ‘I'm afraid so—I’m afraid so,” was the reply. 3 _ ‘And what shall we do?” ‘*‘Make our peace with Heaven!” The wind blew stil], stronger, the house began to shake, and the excited man exe aimed: *‘Jones, you lost five bushels of wheat last. ‘all.”’ “Yes,” ‘‘And you have your enspictona?” “I have. The may who took my wheat had better own up.” “Can you forgive him?” “T can.” Here the wind suddenly dropped, and, after a look through the win low, the conscience-stricken man ‘tarned and finished: “Yes, if I ever meet him I'll advise hjm to call around,” SES ECE A rew Sundays ago a Western church was discovered to be on fir, out the preacher, with great presence of mind, said noteing about it. He merely remarked: ‘This buildong i is heavily burdened with: debt, and I wish some one would lock the Everybody volunteered to do the . locking, and as evérybody forgot to} come back.there was no panic, ‘and THE LATEST NEWS. Ex-Sec:etary Kirkwood positively declines to run for Congress. Mrs. Scoville, Guiteaa’s ister, ‘is arranging a lecture tour throughout the West.GeneralwA:erill says that Lord Cavendish was a member of the’ Army of the Potomac in 1862. In a row at Hanford, Talare counshot and mortally wounded B. H. Paddock and J. H. Melone. Amelia Barrett’ has received judgmeut for $10,000 damages agaist ceived by the falling of a bridge. A great indignation meeting was held at Tombstone, A. T., Wednesday evening, in regard to the President’s r.cent proclamations to the cowbo.s. Farmers say the recent north wind did not do so, mnch damage to the crops in Yuba and Satter counties. The outlook in these counties is still good for a sp!endid crop. * The Penncylvania — Republican State convention oti Weduesday nomby acclamation, and after completing the ticket adjourned. It is pretty evident from thecourse of the officers of the Court in bank that there is little hope of Guiteau getting a new trial, and his career will end seven weeks from next Friday. Francis B. resident and the oldest newspaper publisher in San Jose, died Wednesday morning. He was stricken with paralysis on the 27th of April, and never rallied. A grand three cays’ military encampment, picnic and barbecue opened Tnesday morning at Good Water Grove, two miles from Stockton. The affair is given undér the auspices of the Veterans of the Mexi{ can War, G. A. R., Stockton Guard, Emmet Guard and Pioneers. “The President’s final -decision—on the Chinese bill seems to have come about the same time that the San Bernardino Grand Jury came to theirs, which is that the wash houses in town are a nuisance, and that a fine of $50 be placed to the names of the several proprietors for allowing pools of water to beccme staynant about said premises. The Ohigamen are somewhat excited, and, propose to have legal “advice, and if possib'e cause a non-payment of the same. A Washington telegram of Thurs day says: Inthe House, Sherman, from the Committee on Hducation and Labor, reported a bill to aid in the.support of common schools. — It provides that for th next five years
there shall be approp:iated_ a commot school fund of ten million dollars to aid in the support of common schools, apportioned to the several States and Territories according to the number of their illiterate population over ten years of age.

That is the quickest way we know of to go raving, distracted mad.” Tuer Lancet publishes a eommunication to the effect that boracic acid two drams, glycerine half an ounce, and water half an ounce, well mixed and applied freely to the fauces every hour, and less frequently when the dangerous symptoms show signs of abating, will prove of advantave in treating diptheria.
