boy is a child no mere,
j grown to man's estate;
a court'ng Minnie Gray,

The maid can never lore him as we

Chinese Labor.
.We O?p the following from the Wil
We aw very sure that the exten
siv* introduction of Chinese laborers io
$? the 8outh will be productive of either j
ttveb good or much harm. The reader
^Hfevy that is a self-evident ptoposition.
0*4liB. But we considred it just as
aiaf a specimen of judgement or sagaci
ty 93 the opinions of those who know
tM& Chinese labor is just the thing for
as without having seen the experiment
^J$r* .whole question is purely of an
experimental character j and we trust
people of North Carolina will not
their time, money or influence oo
?til other States, in which cotton
are in much greater demand
ASA, hero, have fully tested it.
3**t Louisiana end Mississippi be the
fbhiiffi In this movement. One year
?jil b^fnfliflieot to satisfy the planters
4^ these States whether or not John
Ohtnfcuiso is a desirable acquisition to
lie 8oofcb. Then, if the enthusiastic
4GgmtatioQS of his advocates are half
0|Wted, it will be time for us to go Jnto
speculation.
The enterprise may prove Buocessful:
httt we doubt it. At all events, let us
"saake haste slowly."
P. 8.?Since the above was written
We hate diecovered the following in the
New York Star, which we publish as an
aid to reflection on this important sub
ject?
We have been very greatly interested
hi a discussion in the California papers
about the Chinese, and can readily ap
pffejate the gravity of the danger whleb
threatens opt only the extreme West,
bet our whole country, from the incur
sion of these unwashed, plodding, eon
s^enecless, patient, brutish workers.
They will cheapen labor and lower the
tone of morals, drive white workers to
ruinous competition, nod fill our streets
wHb fcJsgn?ed vice, unless some steps
ar? lagen whieh shall definitely stop the
bawrigffttion. I? the compactness and.
anfty of trade union* ahme can we see
nay sensible solution of the problem,
The danger is not distant, it is imminent,
for according to Mr. HeDonald Nesbitt,
Who has thoroughly posted himself in
thie matter, already * hundred thousand
cheap production of textile fabrics, me
chanical improvements, and the necessa
ries of lifo. Living oft e handful of rice
a day, clad in cotton garments, they
luakw t "uomaul vca, at a cost of a dollar or
two; dosens living In e single tenement,
and thus practicing a system of economy
whioh reduces their living to six or eight
cents a day, they will work for fifteen
cents e day, end make Money.
They know nothing of luxnry er the
comforts or inconveniences of life; they
have but one object, end that is to make
money. In vain did the raeohanics and
laborers of Sen Francisco try by cruel
treatment to bsnish them; in vain were
trades' union formed to prevent their ob
taining employment; it was found im
possible to starve out a people who could
adapt themselves to the employments of
women, live on their wsges, and, when
employment failed, live on animals and
offal whioh are an abomination to Cau
casians ! Though not possessed of the
physioal vigor of the Cauoaseian, their
patience end untiring application com
pensate largely for this. Reared under
despotism, where oppression is the rule
and brutish stupidity general, they have
no ideas of freedom; they are as obe
dient as slaves, and they only need a di
recting mind to plan, to messure, to lay
off the work, when, with the uncom
plaining submission of a machine, they
delve in the rooks, hew in the forests or
labor in the fields. As you walk up the
streets of San Franoisoo you will see
them squatted in the alleys or corners,
mending shoes, queenaware, tinware,
making garments for the Jews, toys,
balls, hoops, slates, pencils, satchels for
the boys. They will sole your shoes for
five cents above the cost of the leather,
and do it in a workmanlike manner.
Give theni the tobacco and they will
make you a hundred cigars for ten cents.
Tin and copper ware they will make for
you according to directions at a few
cents above the cost of the material; and]
if you want a man killed they will do
that at a cost of a few dollars ! Con
science they have none; morals they
know not; future life beyond the grave
they disbelieve, and death has no ter
rors for them. Perjury is very common,
as they, cannot, or will not, appreciate
the sanctity of an oath ; henoe they are
frequently hired as witnesses.
In no ordinary way can honest, repu
table workmen meet and master these
people. They are unscrupulous to the
last degree, submitting to the indignities
that would make the blood of an Ameri
can or an Irishman boil, for tho merest
pittance at which an Eastern laborer
would tum up his nose. They will be
met and encouraged bj *i?a ?anitalista,
and unless they are bluffed, stopped be
fore they secure a foothold, trouble and
discord, confusion and disaster will sure
ly result from their coming.
It behooves the workingmen of oar
day to think of this matter now ; it is a
thousand times more important than the
negro question or the woman question.
They are minor masters which can be
sealed easily when nothing else is urgent;
this needs attention now.
From the Southern Cultivator.
Clover a**J Grass.
Mr. Madison Stricklsnd, of Jackson
Co., Ga., having grown olover and grass
for many years past with wonderful
success, we propounded to him the
following inquiries, and he has very
kindly appended to them the accompany
ing answers, whioh we publish below.
1st. Whioh is the best time to sow
the seed, fall or spring?
2d. How ought ground to be prepared
?how ought the seed to be covered,,
and how much to the acre 7
3d. What manures are best?when
and how applied ?
4tb. Should they be grazed?if so,
when and how long, first, when kept for
pasture purposes?second, when intended
to be mowed ?
4th. How treated when the object is
to obtain seed, and yield of seed per
acre?
6th. What is the best mixture of seed
to be sown together ?
7th. Should they be sown by them
selves or in connection with a grain
orop ? If the latter, which small grain
is the best?
8th. How do yon save hay?more
especially olover bay ?
9th. How long will the same Und
grow a good orop of olover and gt?"*,
without requiring to be seeded down ?
10th. What kind of land is best
adapted to these erops ?
mr. Strickland's kxplt.
1st. I prefer sowing either grass or
olover from the 16th of January to the
last of February?though it will do
tolerably well to sow from the 1st of
September to the middle of November.
2d. Pbw the land thoroughly, and
afterwards sow the seed, and roll with a
heavy roller?ene gallon of clover seed
well cleaned, or one hashel grass seed in
the rough to the acre, either will be
sufficient,
St. S have never tried any of the
eowoarcUl manures, hot haft* used 00??
lot and stable manure, and have always
?pro?! them broadcast? plowed them in
while preparing the laud.
4th. Never grase under 18 months,
when ft is intended for grazing or mow
ing, aa it does not get sufficient roots
until it is that old. In this region, stock
should not run on clover after the 10th
of March, if it is to be mowed. After
mowing, it may bo grazed until the next
March again.
5 th. Let the clover beads turn one
halt brown, and grass one halt yallow,
for seed. I think grass would yield 15
or 20 bushels of seed, in the rough, to
the sore. As to olover, I have never
cleaned any seed.
6th. For grazing, I think best to sow
clover, herbs grass and oat grass together
For mowing, each should be sown
separate.
7th. I have only sown with wheat or
oats?either will do equally well.
8th. I mow the clover when about
one-half the heads turn brown, and give
it one-half day's sun?having it well
scattered. Mow herds grass when one
half the heads arc yellow, and give the
same treatment as olovcr.
9th. I have tried clover 4 years, and
it has done well. As to herds grass, I
think by plowing up and rolling every
three or four years, it would do well 1
great while.
10th. I prefer red upland and high
stiff bottom for olover, and red upland
and low stiff bottom for grass. I do not
think that sandy bottom or gray upland
can ever be made profitable with grass
or olover.
The mowing blado being the life of
every meadow, suffice it to say that it is
necessary for a skilful hand to take a
keen blade and mow off the weeds, briars,
??c, the last days of August or 1st of
September; this kills all poisonous
plants, and gives the clover and grasses
a chance to get up. This is to be done,
whether intended for mowing or grazing.
f Ciiancks or Marbiaux.?The fol
lowing curious statement by Dr. Gran
*ille, is taken from the registered paper;
it is drawn from the registered cases of
876 women, snd is derived from their
answers to the age at which they are re
spectively married. It is tbo first ever
constructed to exhibit to females their
ohsnoes of marriage at various ages. Of
the 876 females there were married :
