At ail events, let us "Ualu haste slowly." " 3*? 8.?Since the above was written we lave discovered the following in the New York Star, which we publish as an aid to reflection on this important, sub jaes? We have been very greatly interested ion in the California papers Chinese, and can readily sp i the gravity of the danger which tnpt only the extreme West, bot on* whole country, from the incur ajfagft oTthese unwashed, plodding, con pefcneolea*. patient, brutish workers. THey will cheapen labor and lower the tone of morals, drive whit* workers to ruinous cpmpetitioR, and fill our streets with Msaoped vloe, unless some step* are tefcen which shall definitely stop the iSSJ9|$saaio?. In the eompeotness ?od ?aity of trade union* atone oen we see! My sensible solution of the problem, Ultl Anns,"! >s not distant, it is imminent, for according to Mr. ?eDonaid Nesbitt, who ha* thoroughly posted himself in this ?Atter, already a hundred thousand ?if f?nrnm TTlillMMI ll rij SJsJlMsl ? ifl lull ohcsp production of textile fabrics, me ohanical improvements, and (the necessa ries of life. Living on a handful of rice a day, clad in oottou garments, they make themselves, at a cost of a dollar or two; dosens living In a 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 a day, and make money. They know nothing of luxury er the comforts or inconveniences of life} they hare but one object, and that is to make money. In rain did the mechanics and laborers of Ban Francisco try by oTuel treatment to banish them; in vain were trades' union formed to prevent their oh* tainiog employment; it. was found im possible to starve out a people who could adapt themselves to the employments of women, lire on their wages, and. when employment failed, live on animals and offal whioh are an abomination to Cau | casians! Though not ^possessed of the j physical rigor of the Cauoassian, their patience and untiring application com pensate largely for this. ' Beared under despotism, where oppression is the rule end brutish stupidity general, they have no ideas of freedom ; they are as obe dient as slaves, end they only need a di recting mind to plan, to measure, to lay off the work, when, with the uncom plaining submission of a machine, they delve in the rocks, hew in the forests or labor in the fields. As you walk up the streets of Sau Francisco you will see them squatted in the alleys or corner*, mending shoes, quesnsware, 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 id a workmanlike manner. Give thorn 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 fsw cents above the cost of the material; and if you wsnt 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; hence they are frequently hired as witnesses. Ia no ordinary way can honest, repu table workmen meet end 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 the merest pittance at whioh an Eastern laborer would turn up his nose. They will be met and encouraged hj ?u* ?anitalistsj sod unless they aro 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 our 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 nhittera whioh can be settled easily when nothing else is urgent; th? needs attention now. From the Bouthern Cultivator. Clover and Grass. Mr. Madison Strickland, of Jackson Co., Ga., having grown clover 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 he prepared'! ?how ought the seed to be covered,; and how much to the acre ? 1 3d. What manures are beak?when and how applied ? 4th. 8honld they be grated?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 7 6th. What ia the best mixture of seed to he sown together? 7th. Should they be sown by them selves or in connection with a grain crop ? If the latter, which small grain is the bust? 8th. How do you save hay?moro especially glover hay? 9th. How long will the same land grow a good crop of olover and g?a??, without requiring to be seeded down t 10th. What kind of land is best adapted to these crops ? mr. Strickland's" reply. 1st I prefer sowing either grass or clover from the 15th of Jt ???? try to the last of February?though it will do tolerably well to sow from the 1st of September to the middle of November. 2d. Plow the land thoroughly, and afterwards saw the seed, and roll with a heavy roller one gallon of clover seed w?U oleaned, or one bushel grass seed in the rough to the acre, either will be sufficient, 3d. I hare never tried any of tho ?Tats?*psjs) jinnayas, but here mod ocw be ?od ?table msaure, end have always spread theto broadeast?plowed them in while preparing the land. 4th. Never grase uudcr 18 months, when it is intended for grating or mow ing, as it does not get sumoicn t roots until it is that old. In this region, stock shonld not run on clover after the 10th of Maroh, if it is to be mowed. After mowing, it may be grazed until the aezt March again. 6th. Let the elover heads turn one half brown, and grass one halt yellow, for seed. I think grass would yield 15 or 20 bushels of seed, is the rough, to the aero. As to elover, I have never cleaned any seed. 6th. For grazing, I think best to sow elover, herbs grass and oat grass together For Bowing, each shonld bo sown separata. 7th. I hare only sown with wheat or oats?either will do equally well. M 8th. I mow the elover when about one-half the heads torn brown, and give it one-half day's sun?having it wail scattered.- Mow herds grass when one half the heads are yellow, and give the same treatment as clover. 9th. I have tried elover 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 a great while. 10th. 'I prefer red upland and high stiff bottom for elover, and red upland and low stiff bottom for gnus. I do not think that sandy bottom or gray upland can ever be made profitable with grass or clover. The mowing blade 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, (Co., the last, days of August or 1st of September; this kills all poisonous plants, and gives the clover and grasses a chance to get np. This is to be done, whether intended for mowing or grazing. A Valuable Skcbkt.?A laundress ires us the following recipe for doing shirt bosoms.
