Recently in New York, at tho instanco of Chinese Inspector Scharf, two Chinese who presented certificates from the consul at Havana that they were actors and not amenable to the re striction imposed on laborers under the law, were refused a landing.

Jose Maria Maytoena, in the state of Sonora. Mr. Maytoena and Colonel Go mez became involved in a dispute over a matter pertaining to the troops, and a Brooklyn, Oct. 39.—Discussing the approaching election, and using tho text, Exodus xx, 18, "And all tho pooplo saw tho thunderlngs, and tho lightnings, and the noise of the trumpet, end tho moun tain smoking," Rev. Dr. Talmago says: On the evo of elections In the 60 coun- tios of this stato end in all the counties of moat of the United States, while thnro aro many hundreds of nominees to offieo, it it appropriate and important that 1 preach tide before election sermon, My text informs you that the light nings and earthquakes united their forces to wreck • mountain of Arabia Petriea tn olden time, and travelers today fiud heaps of porphyry and greenstone rocks, bowlder against bowlder—the remains of the first law library, written not on parchment or papyrus, but on shattered slabs of granite. The cornerstones of all morality, of all wise law, of all right eous jurisprudence, of all good govern ment aro the two tablets of stone on which were written the Ten Commund- menta. All Roman law, all French law, nil English law, all American law that Is worth anything, all common law, civil law, criminal law, martial law, law of nation* were rocked in the cradle of tho twentieth chapter of Exodus. And it would be well in these times of great political agitation If the newspapers wonld print the Decalogue some day in place of the able editorial. Tho fact is that somo people eupposo that tho law has paesed out of existence, and some are not awaro of some of the passages of that law, and others say this or that is of the more importance, when no one has nnv right to make such an assertion. These laws are the pillars of society, and if yon remove ono pillar you damage the whole struoturo. I havo noticed that men are particu larly vehement against sins to which they are not particularly tempted and find no especial wrath against sins in which they themselves Indulge. They take out one gun from this battery of 10 gnns, and load that, and unlimber that, and fire that. They say, "This is an Armstrong gun, and this Is a Krupp gun, and this Is a Nordenfeldt fivo bar reled gun, and this Is a Gatling 10 bar reled gun, and this is a Martini 87 barreled gun." But 1 have to tell them that thoy are all of the eamn caliber and that they shoot frometoruily to eternity. Many questions are before the people in tho coming elections all over this land, but I shall try to show you that the most Important thing to bo settled about all tln-so candidates is their per sonal, moral character. The Dccaloguo forbids idolatry, haago making, profan ity, maltreatment of parents, Sabbath desecration, murder, theft, incontinence, lying and covotousncsa. That is the Dec aloguo by which you and I will have to be tried, and by the sarno Decaloguo you and I must try candidates for office. Of course we shall not find anything like perfection. If wo do not voto until we find an immaculate nomineo, we will never voto at all. We have so many faults of our own we ough not to he censorious or maledictory or hypercritic al in regard to tho faultA of others. The Christly rule is as appropriate for No vember as any other month in the year "Judge not that ye be not judged, for with what measure ye mete it shall be measured to you again.” AN UNPARTISAN VIEW. Most certainly are we not to take the statement of redhot partisanship as the real character of any man. From nearly all the great cities of this land I receive daily or weekly newspapers, sent to me regularly and in compliment, so I see both sides—I soe all sides—and it is most en tertaining aud my regular amusement to read the opposito statements. Tho one statement saye the man is an angel and the other says ho is a devil, and ' split the difference, and 1 find him half way between. There never has been an honest or re spectable man running for tho United States presidency, or for a judgeship, or for the mayoralty, or for the shrievalty since tho foundation of tho American government, if we may believe the old files of newspapers In the museums, What a mercy it is that they were not all hung before thoy wero inaugurated! If a man believe one-half of what he sees in the newspapers in these times, his ca reer will be very short outside of Bloom Ingdalo insane asylum. 1 was absent two or three years ago during one week of a political canvass and I was dependent entirely upon what 1 read In regard to what had occurred in theBe cities, and 1 read there was procession in New York of G,000 patriots, anil a minute after I read in another sheet that there were 17,000, and then read In regard to another procession that there Wtre 10,000, and then I read In an other paper that there were 60,000, A campaign orator in the Rink or the Academy of Music received a very cold reception—a very chilling reception- said one statement. Tho other statement said the audience rose at him; so-gveat was the enthusiasm that for a long whilo the orator could not be heard, and it was only after lifting his hand that the vo ciferation began to subsidet Ono stato ment will twist an interview one way and another statement will twist an in terview another way. You must admit it is a very difficult thing in times like these to get a very accurato estimate of a man’s character, and I charge you, as your religious teacher—I charge you to caution and to mercifulness and Said About Hood’s Sarsaparilla taken It I telt ni III could undertake Tha Prooldent’a Duties.
