The latest-intelligence from oar Pacific
coast reports- thpt a Japanese junk had
come ashore on one of the islands of Alaska,
with three living Japanese on board.. The
vessel had been disabled in a storm off
Japan, and had drifted two thousand five
hundred miles in nine months, twenty
three of the crew perishing from hunger
and exposure. This striking Odcurrence is
by no means unparalleled. Just forty
years ago, a Japanese vessel, with living
men on board, came ashore near the mouth i
of the Columbia River, in Oregon. It had
a cargo of rice, and the crew consequently'
had enough to eat, though their only drink
was water from occasional rains. Such o
currences assist greatly in explaloining s
-how America was peopled-a question very
perplexing to our ancestors, though late
geographical and ethnological researches s
show olearly that there is really very little I
mystery about it. The Japanese are.evi- o
dently of the same race with our Indians, 1
their anl gege being to some extent similar
to those of our Weatern tribes; and it is
not at all unlikelytbat, dudrlt in _ th-a.

The emigrant ship has not been of late
aso frequent a vister at oar wharves as in of
fprmer days, or as is desrable. The stream
of immigration has been diverted from our
harbor to the where greater preparations
are made for the reception of homeless
strangers seeking employment and a living. ,
Yet it i confessed that oar needof such o
Immigration was never greater. How to hbe
eceever our lost advantages in this respect
has occupled the conversation and the in
legislation of the politicians and leading 1
men of the State since the elese of the tb
war, and we are paeinftlly aware of the
meagre results of their efflpts. w
Now the active eneouragement of such
an lnstigation an the "House of Mercy" Il t
a real solution of the problem. The idea
is capable of indefinite expannion. Make th
this honse the nucleuas of a more extenaded ed
edbrt, and the resallt will not again disap-. wi
point our just expectations, because it le a -
generone eharity and a great publio spirited tw

LoIsaraTzra ArrAmas.-These remain i.
about the same condition as at our last is
ashe. The Senate has no quorum and it is
confidently held by the opponents of War
moth that his wilg of the House has not
one either. It is true that one day the
Senate bad or claimed to have the requis
ite number present and passed, bills
rspesling the election law and several
others of the most outrageous legislative
grievances of the State but though
the same action was taken by the House
and the bills were signed by the Governer
and thus took the semblance of laws,nobody
dreanms of giving them serious attention
as genuine legislation. With such a
president as Pinchback for the Senate, and
such a quorum of bogus members in the
House, Warmoth could easily take the
credit of signing bills which he knows will
not be laws.
We can see no immediate prospect of an
end to the embroglio. If the Congressional
Committee comes here, perhaps something
definite will be done. They may be able
to atch up a peace between the two fac
tions, but we are of opinion that Grant is
not a patching up man. We think that he
will fight it ofut on the same line and that
Warmoth will spend the suwnmer in a
-cooler climate than Louisiana.

d BzaIor MCGiLL.-- The-death of the
SBishop of Richmond has been known for
Sseveral days to this community. His loss
is a serious one to the Church in America.
A native of this country, his early associa
,, tions and general acquaintanee gave him
D advantages not enjoyed by many of the
I prelates in realching certain dlaes of
Americans. His elegant address and fin
I ished education were by no means lost In
the high sphere of action to which he was
called and the splendid talent for oratory
Iwhich, distingulishbed him from his earli
er years combined with all the rest to ex
tend bhis influence and make him a tower
of strength for the Catholic cause.
Before embracing the clerical profession,
Bishop MeGill had been for a short time a
pratising lawyer in this city and, we be
lieve, in Kentncky also. Some three or
four years ago we were favored with his
presence in New Orleans during a short
stay and oui publio still remember vividly
the impression made upon them by his
noble eloquenece and fanulties diction in
publio discourses.
Man-- M diremet6~r the nobility of his
nature, and in his every act, and under
eversy kind of eJroaumstances, give proof
that he remembeir it.
