There is a renewal of the rumors about Cabinet changes, and this time Teller is placarded for tie Interior Department, It is said that he lias also become so certain of his nomination as to go about among his friends telling them of it, and that he has already begun to "name the day," on which his nomination will be i-ctt in. It El o-ily among (lies and men that such complete disregard of teachings of experience is encountered.

A fly will walk calmly and deliberately into the trap which already contains the bodies of bis friends and companions, will survey their disasters with an indifference which volumes for his pbL-gui. In the tame way a Teller will jump to the conclusion that he is infallibly booked fur the Interior Department, regardless of the fact that a. few weeks ago precisely the same assertion was made concerning Mr. Sargent. Is Teller more secure than Sargent had a right to feel? Wo do cot think that is possible.

Has he any better guarantees than Sargent had? That, too, is incredible. What madness, then, has inspired him thus to court destruction, when it is obvious that the President cannot give him any foreign mission better worth having than Chile, Peru or Bolivia The folly of his boasting indeed is already shown, for the dark shadow of Grant passes over the board, and on the opposite sido the figure of Chaffee looms up, menacing and ominous. In times like these it behooves the wise politician to hold his peace until he has his committiion in his pocket, signed, scaled and delivered for between cup and lip so many flips are recorded that everything in the shape of certainty would seem to be excluded. Mr. Teller will no doubt be Secretary of the Interior if he is nominated, and le will be nominated unless some other person is, and probably he will be confirmed if his name ever gets before the Senate.

Hat in the light of past events tenuble men will decline to discuss such vague contingencies as these, and will await the actual event before expressing an 'pinion. THE WHITTAKER CASE. It is not quite to discover the true inwardness of tho last phase in the Whittaker case, but tho presumption is that the President has decided to pardon Whittaker and turn him cut of the service, instead of keeping him in it and punishing him. And probably this is tho best way to get rid of the case. There can be no doubt of the young man's guilt, and it is equally clear that his offense grew in a considerable measure out of his peculiar situation at West Point.

After what has happened it would be useless to keep htm and it is perhaps nnnecssiry to punish him any more. To turn him out and let him go, seems therefore the meat practical solution of the whole matter. THE MUTUAL UNION. If, as alleged. Jay Gould has secured a majority of the Mutnal Union Telegraph Company's stock, the independent career of that association must be regarded as closed.

The statement in tho affirmative has been made with much circumstantiality, and it seems credible. It is true that tome officers of th Mutual Union continue to deny it, but if the change of ownership really has taken place, it will not long before the fact becomes known, no matter what attempts arc made to conceal it. PASSAGE OF THE CHINESE BILL IN THE HOUSE. The Chinese bill passed in the House yesterday, without amendment, by a vote of 177 to 5. This is in several respects a remarkable vote.

The total number of Representatives is 293. Of these no more thin 242 voted at all on the bill. Thia shows that public sentiment at the Etst has cot come round to the California view of the Chinese question, for had such a change of opinion taken place it is certain tilat 51 Representatives would not have evaded a vote on this question, as they have done. The peculiar conditions under which the bill has been passed indicate that nothing but the political saved it. It was the fear of losing the votes of the Pacific Stater, and scarcely any other influence, which secured for the bill the very partial support it had, and the very unwilling neutrality which prevented it from being ignominiously slaughtered.

And this analysis also shows that the state of feeling about the measure is so far from being unanimous, that the President's assent cannot be taken for granted. He is in a position to perceive clearly the political implications of legislation, and he is practically independent of public opinion. The diplomatic view of the case is likely to impress him, moreover, and the commercial view may be utilized against the bill also. The question with him, supposing that hy is a candidate for re-election, is, whether he will lose more in New England than he will gain on the Pacific Coast, by signing the bill, For it must bo realized that however grave and serious the dangers of Chinese immigration may appear to Californians, the Eastern people do not regard the question with any thing like the same earnestness, and in fact do not believe that the California view is correct. They attribute the latter mainly to the glamour of local prejudice, and the demagogism of politicians and journals.

They point to the actual numbers of the Chinese among us, and to the fact that they have not appreciably increased for several years, apd ridicule our apprehensions as puerile and insincere, born of the tendency to truckle to Sand Lot threats, and having no greater significance than to placate the great unwashed for the sake of their votes. The argument of Mr. George F. Seward that if the Chinese had or could have votes, the Chinese question would disappear, is no doubt regarded at the East as exceedingly cogent and keen. For the people in those States have observed the manner in which their own politicians pander to every voting element, and how respectfully they treat every such element, and they not unnaturally conclude that if the Chinaman had the ballot he would cot need defenders long.

Even so intelligent a journal as the Nation takes tides against the promoters of the bill, and expresses the opinion that there has never been anything in recent politics so absurd as the terror, real or "affected, about the numbers of the Chi" nese, except the pretense of the San Francisco hoodlums that they compete with them in the labor market. There is hardly a lazy vagabond or tramp in the United States who does not try to be" lieve that the Chinaman is keeping him "out of work." Thus we see one of the most enlightened of American journals declaring its belief that the San Francisco hoodlums complain of Chinese competition. And this shows how little the Nation understands the hoodlum. The latter is by no means the person to complain of Chinese competition, for he does not work at anything himself, unless it be crime, and though he is always ready to maltreat the Chinese, he despises them too thoroughly to their rivalry. But when such a paper as the Nation takes this view it is evident that our eloquent Senators and Representatives have not succeeded in changing Eastern opinion on the subject, and that the California view is unpopular on the Atlantic seaboard.

And in view of these facts and considerations it may be rash to assume with any confidence that the President will sign the bill. Probably the best hope of his acquiescence lies in the obvious fact that Congress has undertaken to shuffle all tho responsibility en to his shoulders. Under such circumstances a man of spirit might conclude that he would not be trapped in such a way, and might sign the bill without any reference to his own convictions. Should he sign it, however, there will be no reason for special rejoicing, for the measure is at best tentative, and it is quite questionable whether it will produce any appreciable improvement in the existing situation. We are disposed to believe that it will not have been a month on the statute book before the community in whose interest it was passed will have discovered that it does not really touch the root of the evil from which they suffer, and that it only provides for a clow and tedious change, which may occupy the lifetime of a generation.

As a means, therefore, of putting an end to popular clamor, we fully expect that the new bill will turn out a disappointment. It will effect but a momentary quiet, and when the uncertain and tedious nature of the cure proposed is generally realized, we shall not be surprised if the Pacific Coast Incomes more exclamatory, objurgatory and insistent than ever. It dots nut seem to have occurred to the astute and supple politicians engaged in the negotiations that a case of this sort called for a really practical measure for a measure, in short, where merits could be perceived and estimated from the day it went into effect. Any other kind of legislation was certain in the nature of things to fail of effect, yet our representatives evidently believe that when the President signs the bill there will remain nothing for California but to show her gratitude by supporting the Republican or Democratic party, as the carte may be, for of course both parties will claim the honor of passing the bill, here, at the same time that they both disclaim the discredit of passing it, at the East. THE KAISER'S OPTIMISM.

The old German Emperor has been cellbrating his birthday with great rejoicings, and has received many compliments, whereto he replied in a speech which serves to show how different the imperial point of view is apt to be, from that which common people Kaiser William thinks that Providence has selected him for the per-' formance of gnat things, and that to this end he has been fortunate in the choice of his It must be admitted that Bismarck and Moltke were simply perfect instruments for the carrying out of a. blood and iron" programme; but whether that programme was one which a respectable and intelligent Providence would indorse, is quite' another question. Tne notion which the old Emperor takes so much pleasure in, however, has been entertained by every crowned foci and Leave the world has ever seen. The fact is that it is an idea which quite "naturally and almost inevitably grows out of such situations. The first Napoleon probably held it in a different form.

was too confident in 1 the splendor of his own genius to believe that he was simply a tool, but he did believe that Destiny befriended him. As to Emperor William, seeing that his game was aggrandizement, he was fortunate in having such powerful intellects as those of Bismarck and Moltke at his service. But it is perfectly certain that the history of Germany and Prussia during his reign has bsen made, cot by the monarch, hut by the minister. Bismarck' has for many years been the real- ruler of Germany. Without him the poor old Emperor would very soon be reduced to his natural level, which is that of a well-meaning, opinionated, not at all brilliant old man.

Hew incapable he is of judging concerning what is passing around him is shown by his remark that "he had learned with pleasure that the country largely approved his recent It is true that there were people to tell Charles X. of France that in signing the ordinances which in a few hours cost him his throne, he had firmly established his dynasty, and therefore we need not be surprised that Emperor William's ear should have been abnsed by flatterers in regard to the" late message. But it is notorious that the message has produced the most profound and universal dissatisfaction throughout Germany, and that the end of this dissatisfaction has not yet been reached. It is quite natural that the Emperor should recommend his people to cultivate a fervent religious "feeling," though perhaps he should have said whether he. meant a Catholic or a Protestant fervor, for the Catholic fervor has of late years produced embarrassing results in German legislation, and nobody knows this better than Prince Bismarck.

A fervent religious feeling in the abstract, however, is always what autocratic rulers most wish to see cultivated, because it reconciles the people to despotism, pursuades them that their government, bo mitter how meddlesome or intolerant, is heaven-sent, and causes them to reject liberal sentiments and those intellectual researches which, by leading them to a higher mental plane, are calculated to render them impatient of their burdens. Whete the Throne rests upon the Altar, religion is enlisted in the service of royalty, and this kind of alliance has so frequently been cemented that the popular distrust of the Churches which is a canon of continental Republicanism, is sufficientlyexplained by it. WHY PARDONED Cashier Conant, who stole from a bank, and who was condemned to seven years' imprisonment, has been pardoned by the President after serving two years, the plea being that his health had broken down under confinement. It is no doubt the case that the health of many prisoners breaks down, particularly when, through the exercise of favoritism, they are excused from the performance of the labor which would have kept their systems in good condition. But it is not to be credited that this particular criminal deserved pardon more than hundreds or thousands of others, and it will assuredly be concluded that he has been favored improperly because he had rich and influential frienda in politics.

The example it bad one, moreover. Of all crimes perhaps the most common at this time is embezzlement. The instances of it of late years have been startlingly numerous, and have included scores of bank cashiers, many of whom have ruined the institutions with which they were connected, and have esctped punishment in the end. It is the more necessary to execute stern justice when it becomes possible in such cases. Cocant's was a particularly bad one, and bis sentence was just.

He to have served it, and the only possible result of his parden will be to spread abroad the belief that such offenses are venial, and easily compounded for. THE IMMIGRATION ASSOCIATION. The California Immigration Association met at San Francisco Tuesday. The Secretary's financial statement showed Balance on hand, $415 17 received from subscriptions, $570 50 total, $985 87. Expende On expense account, $75 tiO on salary account, $250 total.

$385. Balance in hands of Treasurer, $600 07. The income of the Immigration Office has been increased this month $47. The present regular subscription is $462. The pamphlet showing the workings of the Association for the past month will be if sued during the current week.

Inquiries from New Zealand for north California lands are announced. The pamphlet of the Shasta County Association is in preparation. The work done in the Land Office Department shows the magnitude of the business undertaken. One and one-half millions of acres of Government land of some character have been listed, and 700,000 acres more are learned of, which is about one-seventh of all the railroad grants- of land in the State. Since the last report of officer C.

11. Street nearly all the vacant land in Mendocino county, amounting to over acres, has been listed. The character of all th? Government land in Napa and Sonoma counties has been learned as far as the Surveyor-General's field notes will show it. Forty large plates in the latter county have been made and no unfed. Nineteen large maps of Mendocino county lands have also been traced.

The deficiency of description regarding these lands, occasioned by the meagerness of the surveyors' field notes, has been supplied by correspondence. Of eighteen persons who have been informed of the lands of the association since the last meeting, but three have returned. One colony of Germans has been located in Shasta county. The report of the Land Officer outlines the future labors of the association. Immigrants are always advised that there are no good Government lands in the old settled counties, and that if they would get productive lands they must go to the new districts, away from the railroads and large towns.

The association is continually in receipt of descriptions of private lands for sale, but it has not been the policy of the association to undertake the sals of such. Bakers' and tub Sunday Law. At San Francisco, at the recent meeting of the Bakers' Union, the most important business discussed was the advisability of taking steps under the Sunday law for the prevention of bakers' wagons delivering bread through the city on Sundays. It was claimed that Siturday night and Sunday work being an excess of the ninety hours worked during the previous six days of the week, was an outrageous imposition fur which there existed no excuse, as the public did not desire such service. All present being in favor of encouraging and aiding the authorities in a general enforcement of the law, on motion, it was resolved "that the Bakers' Union of this city, while opposed to the enactment and enforcement of any law' of 'a sumptuary character, or in any way limiting or proscribing citizens in the exercise of their constitutional privileges, and apart from the religious or fanatical features of the present agitation upon the Sunday law, we are in favor of its enforcement, prohibiting the running of bakers' wagons on that day, and hope the Chief of Police, in enforcing the law against will do so also against those who, by running their wagons on Sunday, force bakers to act as slaves." yi I oossiusb it a great pleasure," writes DoaV, mansger of the American Hmise, Amesbury, to state that the i fl minatory rheumatism which so severely affected my tret; yielded at one? upon a lew, of the Jacobs Oil, which is' worthy of the highest recommendation." ss a SAN FRANCISCO.

AN ADDRESS. Ministers ar.d Other Citizens to the Mayor and Other Officers In Fan Francisco. The following is the full text of the address of the San Francisco ministers and citizens favoring the Sunday law, on the occasion of their recent visit to the Mayor, Chief of Police and the Prosecuting Attorney of San Francisco Mr.

Mayor and Gentlemen Much effort has been and is b-in)r put forth to make the impression that the statute known as the Sunday 1 is an unjust an odious measure, of ecforjement. We believe that there an organization, or league, whose avowed purpose is to embarrass and defeat the enforcement of the law. Such a conspiracy is a hundred times more audacious, and, if not promptly and vigorously met, a thousand times more dangerous, than the Illicit distillers in the mountains of Tennessee and North Carolina. Thus far this treasonable organization has had little less than au unchallenged career, insomuch that the unthinking have been deluded into the belief that its ostentatiously-paraded statements contain some substance of truth. Doubtless many of conspiracy in question have been cajolod into the league under groat unintelligence as to the turpitude of the crime contemplated and the magnitude of the danger involved in the disloyal experiment.

For these reasons, and all others which ought to modify the action of loyal cilizjns, we have deemed it expedient to assure you, the executive officers of the city, and through jou all who it may concern, that there is a large and determined majority of tuc-payirg cit zens who desire and expect the enforcement of the law. It is settled, as a matter of sciuno and experience, thai all laborers, all members of the employed classes, all workers with nerve Htd brain, must enjoy one day of rest in sevjn, in ord-r to preserve physical, mentd and moral health, The iiJCi Of buf-'nt-s, the harmony el the industries, the traditions of the nation, th? lessons of our history, the lecrognitlons of constitutional and common and statute Uw, the good order of society, the domettle quiet necessary to the fu'l enjoyment of the benefits of the day, the structural plan of the American Government, and the suggestions of comprehensive statesmanship under it, point to the high expediency of designating one and the same day for the whole people. The day commonly called Sunday is the only day on which it would be possible to fix Ml a' approach to a broad and Intelligent agreement. It has been conspicuously recognized throughout our entire history by Constitution? Legislatures and Courts. It is interwoven with the whole order of our national life, and could not be substituted without measureless confusion and loss.

Other Sabbaths are days of rbhgiuiu observance by comparatively small numbers, and have no value or commercial snd legal significance the general system. The law does not forbid any man to rest on any other day, nor does it foroid him to work on Sunday. So far, every man may satisfy his conscience follow bis bent. With designated exceptions, it very properly forbids him to keep open any place of business, or to comjiel or require others to work, or any place of mercenary temptation to lure the weak and unwary into wasteful expenditures, and into excesses which disquiet the day and defeat the intent of the law. If, then, the civil Sabbath must of general necessity be one day, and that day Sunday, every dictate of prudence and manhood government suggests the laborer's rest day should be for health, homelife, and mental and domestic improvement free alike from the exae ions of capital, the oppressions power, and the demoralizing solicitations of cupidity.

No attempt is made to compel men to worship or to keep the Sabbath rellgii but only require them to be just 1 1 the profoundctt needs of human nature in the relations of industrial, domestic and civil life. It cannot be but that every virtuous calling and every industry dema tied bj authentic civilization will be advantaged by the ration tf the law. If there is any occupttion uh th cannot tolerate such a law, that occupation must be at war with the best interests society. Such in brief, are the character and objected the Sunday law. To as time that it cannot be enforced is to confess a weakness disreputable to the government and damaging to the reputation of the city and the State To refuse to enforce it is to invite dlsorganiz ition and anarchy.

Sunday will be exceptional!) a da)' of dissipation, domestic misery and public crime, or except.ona'iy a dayo: personal sobriety, domes lc cpmfvrt and public quiet. Which it shah be will now depend un the hupineness or vitfor, the cowaidice or courage, the perjury or fidelity of the functionaries charged with the execution of the law. Without consuming time with argument, we huten to assure you, sir, and gentlemen, of our unshaken confidence in the ability and -tli integrity of the executive officers ot this city; and through you to to all parties in interest that there is a large, calm and determined constituency, who not only desire the enforcement of the law, but are resolved to do what they may in every legitimate way to defeat the machinations of rebellion, and present such a triumph of conspiracy as wou'd blast the good name of the city, and menace every law by which our liberties are guarded and every right we hold dear. We represent, directly, say fifty churches, with a large citizen membership, everyone of whom is law-abiding case of needmay be relied upoa as Isw-eiift ruing. Outside of this circle, which Is unpotential only iv the fancy of the uninformed, is another, composed of many hundreds of pledged timperauce men in a single order, hose past uclh ity is a presage of their future energy.

Outside of this is a large number of members of other organizttious, too intelligent to be deceived by a false cry, and too patriotic to stand supinely by and see the guaranties of liberty insolently trampled under fun in the purblind interest of a few whose gains depend on the amount of misery they cm create. Outoiie of all tsese the-e is a sti'l larger constituency of sober, industrious i itiien augmented by a multitude who have felt the pow. rof appetite. or indirectly the rscorchlorgs of the tire, and therefore wish to remove temptation from the purview -of their rest-day rambles, who will answer to any call the civil government may make upon them for maintaining tho supremacy of law. outside of all these is a great assemblage of wives, children, mothers of endangered sons, and sisters of imp nhd brothers, whose rights are as sacred as though they were able to defend them by bayonet and balk t.

These be 'considered' hi any comprehensive measure of legislation for the public good. Thus far this va.t constituency has calmly waited for the decision of the highest Court. ca'mness of th- ir courage may have emboldened the demoralizers into the notion that the opp sition to disorganizing purposes would be tiund and temporary. Wo are sure that you, Mr. Major and gentlemen, do not labor under auch a misapprehension.

We theretore nuke these delibe ate statements much more in the hope of undeceiving the victims of than to intimate to -the executive officers of the municipal government the grave importance of promptly and vigorously discharging the functions whUhtluy are sworn to perform, and whkh have been Insolently set at defi uioe. i For oursetves-if you will indulge ns yet a moment-we try to keep the Sthbath in a Christian way. But, in pleading for a civil Sabbath, we speak only as citizens, -needing all the rights we claim, MM claiming a that we concede. Clearly reco'foltins the fact that a' people endowed with the bai. lot-, and the right of private and public discussion, can hive no valid reason 'tor rebellion, we are to submit to laws which we do not approve till they can bo lawfully repealed or amended.

If any and every cltss or calling may usurp the powers of Legislatives and Courts, then government is at an end and anarchy ensues. For the base disloyalty of the mercenary leaders ref this latest nhiskv rebellion," therefore, who would purchasa guilty sains at the price of treason, no of denunciation is to. strong: hut we should injustice to our convictions if we did not cherish a kinder feeling toward their dupes and too 8, who, for obvious reasons, do not seem the logical consequences of their false position. Yet, it must not be forgotten tint Evil is wrought by want of thought, As well as want of heart." Practically, "a blunder is as bad as a sin and tbe inn is doubly aggravated when the blunder" is found lo be under the adroit leadership of the "sin." We will only tarry to you aeain of the conscientious support of a Iruye and influential body of citizens, whose rights are too d.ar to them to be bartered for inglorious QMS, and whole liberties, safe only while law is suprrme.they will not consent to see jeopardized hya loudly and ludicrously proclaims itself in the prostituted name of Freedom. If we have appeared to aim especially at one class, it is because that class only has proclaimed its purrose of i.on -submission to tbe law.

This instance, being the first in the history of our State in which organized rebellion has openly challenged the Government, has an imjortance in it-, ur-ou the future which entitles it to so much distinction. A St Louis man has actually been caught bragging of the greatness of Chicago. He pleaded, in extenuation, that he was talking to an English barbarian, and was trying to convince the benighted heathen of the greatness of this country, and be mentioned Chicago as smaller than St. Louis. But good society in the latter city shuns him.
