WHAT THEY DO.
When they work for “Melican” people’
they serve in many capacities. ‘They are
used as waiters,‘cooks, scrubbers, and .all
the work done by girls in other countries,
and excellent Servants they make; . They
literally obey orders, and they do it with a
celeritv and faithfulness that is astonishing.
They'never argue or question. All that is
necessary is for them to know what'you
want, and they will-do it, if it is to be done.
Consequently, Chinamen have routed Brid-

Their opium dissipation they go away to

tions on theirown account. There are

cisco who do not keep servants, have their

work cheap, for : , ' .
' ‘ THEIR LIVING Is visnv. cuEAP.
The Chinamen always board themselves.
One of their number cooks for the rest,‘nnd'
remarkably cheap is thefare they thrive on.
Cabbage is a favorite ingredient in their
dishes ; rice is the staple, and they consume
tbr meats the livers, plucknnd neck pieces
'—I don’t know whether "the horns are eaten
or not! They import immense quantities of
a peculiar dried fish from China,and a great
many other articles of food, the nature of
which I could not ascertain. Pork is a
staple, though you may be sure they get
none of the best pieces. Their markets are
as nasty as-nasty can he; and a Chinese
butcher’s stall is about the most- unsavory
place I have ever offended my nose with.
Rather nice aboutr‘their persons, they have
none of the European and American fistid-
iousness_ about their eating arrangements.
One thing seems to be as good'as another to
them, so that it supports ‘life; 'Their
DRESS
costs them very little, for there is no change
in fashions, and a garment stays by them
till it is worn out. It consists of light cork-
soled shoes of a quaint, clumsy shape,white
stockings,-big,-ba gy trowsers, and a shirt

sers are more bagg and - generally white.
They never have ‘w ite next to the skin, for
the same reason that the old lady objected
to white plates—they showed the dirt so
easily. And, speaking of -
WOMEN, _ ' ’
there are very few good,respec‘table Chinese
’ women here. The Chinaman, as a rule, does
not expect to stay, for ~ they believe they
have no certainty of Heaven if they are
buried anywhere but in Chinese soil. For
this reason,-the bodies‘ of all who die here
are taken back._home for interment. - For
this réa’Son, very few of them‘brought their
wives. There are a great many Chinese
women here, but they were pickedup on
the‘streets of the Chinese cities and brought
hither for the vilest purposes. A few have
theirwives and dau hters with them, but
the great majority ofthem are the lowest
of the low. I am glad to say that the
number of those who have lost their. super-
stition and propose tomake this country
their permanent home, is increasing very
rapidly, and these send for their families,
and, to a considerable degree, adopt civiliz-
ed habits. ‘ '
TEE CHURCHES
are making the Chinese the especial objects
of their labors. They have a number of
Chinese converts, who labor among their
countrymen, and with a fair degree ‘of suc-
cess. One Methodist church in the city has
a class of converts that numbers three hun-
dred, and it is..increasing daily. And 9. Chi-
naman, when he becomes a~Christian,_is a
very good one. ' He liv’es’fip’ to his profession
quite as well as the Melican manandl don't
know but better; He is' naturally a' good
sort of fellow, with- excellent impulses and
desire to do right,"a'iid altogether his nature
is an excellentfoundation on which to build.
And there is one singular thing about the
Chinese. , In their Own lan uage there is
nothing more horribly discor ant than their
music. It is fearful.“ ,The filing of saws or
the screach of un-oiled axles is heavenl in
comparispn. ' In China they seem to ave
no comprehension of time, tune, or sweet
sounds. But then some Chinese will sing
the'Churchor Sunday school music of the
day as sweetly as so many nightingales.
Their voices are really sweet, and when they
have been in training a little while they do
good work with them. .- Last Sunday night
I heard three hundred of them singing
“ When we Gather at the River,” “Home-
ward Bound,?’ and 'other music of the kind,
and they did it with a. niccty that any Sun-
day school might be proud_ot'. The converts
are very punctual in attendance and very
anxious to learn. , r _ '

the railroad committee were anxious to in-

No county, city, town or other munici-

heretofore made. '
The motion of Mr. Wilson to postpone
further discussion until Wednesday next
and make it the order for 10:30 a. m., was.
after brief suggestions by one or two other

explained the bill at considerable length.
The bill provides substantially that no as-
signment shall be made for more than three
‘months, and that no person not having a

and that for personal board only.
Mr. Harrison of Guilford, then offered an
additional section providing that no factori-
zing process shall be valid to recover claims
for liquor furnished the assignor or any
member of his family. The amendment
was accepted.
Too Many Preachers.
Never too many if they are of the right
sort, and well-sorted. Every good minister
of Christ may do good somewhere; only
let them be so distributed,as to find and
meet the needs. But under the present sys-

about how sick her mother was, and still
another told about how drunk her father

one little beauty, who seemed only unhappy
to think there was nothing that she could
tell to excite the envy or sympathy of the
rest. She listend to the recital of all these
troubles as long as she could, and finally
she expressed herselfin this way: “Well,

Every yea increases the p0pnlai-i-
ty of this valuable Hair Preparation ;
which is due to merit; alone. We
can assure our old patrons that; it is
kept fully up to its high standard;
and it is the only reliable and perfect-
ed preparation for restoring GRAY
on FADED HAIR to its youthful color,
making it. soft, lustrous, and silken.
The scalp, by its use, becomes white
and clean. It removes all eruptions
and dandrufi; and, by its tonic prop-
erties, prevents the hair from falling
out, as it stimulates and nourishes
the hair-clouds. By its use, the hair
grows tIiicker and stronger. In
baldness, it restores the capillary
glands to their normal vigor, and
will create a. new growth, except in
extreme old age. It is the most eco-
nomical I'IAIII. DRESSING ever used,
as it requires fewer applications,
and gives the hair a splendid, glossy
appearance. A. 'A. Hayes, MD,
State Assaycr of Massachusetts, says,
“The constituents are pure, and care-
fully selected for excellent quality;
and I consider it the BEST Penm-
ILLTION 1:).- its intended purposes.”

also more poys mit more dogs. Und den de
poys shangc dogs, nnd schwap off, out] rice
verso a good deal. Und dey keep me dere
all day, pulling de door-pells—we liaf had
six new door-polls siuCe last month,und dree
nfo pair of shteps for de front door, und
pooty soon ve vill liaf to get a noo house al-
togedcr. Vone morning two of dot dogs
got into a discussions apout somedings und
commenced fighting. Und all dot fivo
hoondrcdt dogs took different Sides, und so
did dot five heondrcdt poys. Veil, all my
neighbors look dc vindow out und dey

efery night late, somcpody .move out; und
now der vas nopody left in (lot; shtreet but

order a polices to arrest me on suspicions. 1

vell, I dink you vas making sausage dog-

and says, “ You tink I can arresht five
hoondred poys, all at de same time." Und
he vent in a lager-beer saloon, und den I
heard tlein all laughing apout sometings.
But dot’s not de worst apout it. Venever I
go walking in de afternoon mit a nice young
lady in de shtreedt oudt, some dirty news-

und says, “Mr. Von Boyle, here’s your little

“ Old Von Boyle, he vas a noodle,
Fifiteen cents for his pald headed poodle",
Now as dose poys shtill keep efer coming

print in de pabcrs dot my dog Bismark vas
a plain pluck and (an mitout any drimmings,
he don’t even got any hair on his pack, on
account he vos paldt-headedt. Vell, I for.
get to explain do pefore, so yott can dell ex-
acty vich is my dogs when you sees him.
Vell, Bismark vos always fighting, you
know—especially cats. Von day he went
across the shtreet to a French millinery
shtore py dc name Mam'selle Chapeau, vot
had a little cat by dc name Llouchoir. She
was an oldt maid—I mean Mam’selle Cha-
peau ; nnd she shoostloved herlittle cat by
de name Mouchoir. Vell, Bismark he vas a
Deutcher dog; und Mouehoir he vas a
French cat, und vile dey vas talking apout
dot, she threw a whole basket ful ot‘ red-hot,
wate‘r-Mam’sellc Chapeau—de vindow out,
right on Bismark’s back. Ever since dot,
Bismark vas paidt-headedt——completly
paldt-headet all over him. Vell, efcrybody
turned around ttnd looked in de shtreets at
him; und vone day two cirenses men comes
up to me und deny try und make fun on ac-
coundt of Bismark. Vone fellar says, “Veil
dot’s a pecooliar dog you got, not abit of
hair on; don’t it ?” Und I says, " Yes, in-
deed.“ .“ Yell,” he says,“ dot dog shtrikes
me it vould make a fine paldt-headedash;
ain’t it ?” Vell den, I vas awful mad mit do;
man.
Yell, In two days dot circusus mens had
shtale Bismark. 'Und he vent all over de
United States, making pelieve he vas a ele-
phant—no, vat is it? yes, dot’s vat it is a.
vat-is-it. Dev called him “De Greadt Baldt
headedtVot is Dot 1" But he comes back
again vrom California, und he’s shoost de
same dog as pef‘ore he shtarted.
Now dot’s de vay you can know Bismark.
Besides dot, he got vone eye only, on ac-
conndt of a servant girl by de name Bridget
vot had a pluck cat. Und also vone of his
legs vas shorter as de Oder vone, on account
nfo. saw mill. Und his tail vas also pehind
of his back. But, poys, blease don’t come

Lucy Hooper writes :-Here is one of the
latest samples of Parisian win—Christian,
who lately played Jupiter in “ Orphee," was
talking one day with a stupid fellow who
was boring him to extinction with a long
discourse upon natural history. “Even oys-
ters are possessed of reason,” wound up the
bore. " Yes,” gasped the exhausted actor,
“ I am sure of that; they know how to shut
up their mouths.”
Thirty-nine widows were ranged in rows
of chairs, the other day, in the county clerk's
office of Virginia City." Each had :1. burial
certificate or some other proof of the death
of her husband. They were of varied
aspect, from a dimpled girl of seventeen to
the wrinkled matron of seventy, making,
probably, the most remarkable gathering of
widows ever known. 'i‘lieii' errand was to
recover taxes which had been improperly
collected, the law which allows them to
hold a certain amount ofuntaxable property
having been disregarded.
