Cainese Labor. We dip the following from the Wil very euro that the exten m of Chinese laborers io Soulh will bo productive of either j . good or much harm. The reader i qtiHftSjthat is a self-evident proposition. f3*> jsht. Bui we considred it just as gpaji ft specimen of judgement or sagaci ty as the opinions of those who know tilt Chinese labor is just tho thing for ?PS without having seen the experiment > whole qneation is purely of an ?pttimcnttl character; and we trust people of North Carolina *-ill not their time, money or influence on until other States, in which cotton are in much greater demand Am Atta, have fully tested it. Let Louisiana and Mississippi he tba yjnstairs In this movement. One year sjttfc \|ynj$bteDi to satisfy the planters of tfceee States whether or not John fjfcfmiiMri is a desirable acquisition to IB* South. Then, if the enthusiastic ions of his advocates are half I f, it will be time for us to go ,into I speculation. 5neenterprise may prove successful: hut we doubt it. At all events, let us "Btfce haste slowly." * P. 8.?Since tho above was written Wt have discovered the following in the New York Star, whioh we publish as an %M to reflection on this important sub ject: We have boon very greatly interested in ft discussion in the California papers about the Chinese, and can readily ap pfociate tho gravity of the danger whioh threatens not only the extreme West, but oar whole country, from the incur sion of these unwashed, plodding, con soieeecles*, patient, brutish workers. Tney will cheapen labor and lower the tone of morals, drive white workers to ruinous competition, and fill our ?treet* with felssoned vice, unless some steps are taken whioh shall definitely stop the immigration. In the compactusss sod unity of trade unions alone can we see any sensible solution of the problem/ TJbe danger is not distant, it is imminent, for according to Mr. XftDonald Nesbitt, Whole* thoroughly posted himself in I . I II I II ?III ? ..I. .. .11 ? I III ? II this, matter, already a hundred thousand of *** Chinese bava t?^, axd Aeir I pf$&Nlfe l&bOeT ial as*VADaw^ata&ee? WsJsjsl^ %V& cheap production of textile fabrics, me ouanioal improvements, and the necessa ries of life. Living ou a handful of rice a day, elad in cotton garments, they make themselves, at a cost of a dollar or two; dozens liriog In a single tenement, and thus practicing a system of economy \ which 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 or the comforts or ineonvenienceB of life; they hare bnt one object, and thai is to make money. In rain did the mechanics and laborers of San Franoiseo try by cruel treatment to baniah them; in rain were trades' union formed to prevent their ob taining employment; it/ was fonnd im _'Ii. . ._. ._? ?_%._?i |iwmui? w omuD vui> a> peupie wbu wum adapt themselves to the employments of wesson, Urs es their wsges, and, when employment failed, lire on animals and offal which are an abomination to Can caaians! Though not possessed of the physical vigov of the Caueassian, their patienoe and untiring application com pensate largely for this. Reared under despotism, where oppression is the rule and brutish stupidity general, they hare no ideas of freedom ; they are as obe dient as slaves, and 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 rooks, hew in the forests or labor in the fields. Ab yon walk np the streets of Ssn Francisco you will see them squatted in the alleys or corners, mending shoes, queenswaro, tinware, making garments for the Jews, toys, balls, hoops, V.at'es, pencils, satohels for the boys. They will sole yonr shoes for five con (a above the cost of the leather, and do it in a WOrkui?nuikc manner. Give them the tobacco and thoy will make you a hundred cigars for ten cents. Tin and copper ware they will make for you according to directions at ? 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 1 Coo 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 ; bonce they are ? frequently hired as witnesses. In no ordinary way can honest, repu table workmen meet and master these people. They ave unscrupulous to the last degree, submitting to vbe indignittee that would make tho blood of an Am eri ca a or an Irishman boil, for the merest pittance at which an Eastern laborer would turn up his nose. They will be met snd encouraged, hj ?kA ?anitalists, and unless they ere 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 nWtcrs which can be settled easily when nothing else is urgent; thi? needs attention now. From the Southern Cultivator. Clover aad Grass. Mr. Madison Strickland, of Jackson Co., Ga., having grown olover and grass , for mauy years past with wonderful success, we propounded to him the following inquiries, and he has rery 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, snd how much to the sore ? i 3d. What manures are best?when sod how applied ? 4 th. Should 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? 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 crop ? If the latter, which small grain is the bast ? 8th. How do yon save hay?more especially olover hay ? 9th. How long will the same land grow a good erop of olover and gti*?, without requiring to be seeded down ? lOtb. Whst kind of land is best adapted to these crops ? MR. BTBICKLAND'S REP LT. 1st. I prefer sowing either grass or olover from the 15th of January to the last of February?though *t will do tolerably well to sow from the 1st of September to the middle of November. 2d. Plow the land thoroughly, and afterwards sow the seed, and roll with a heavy roller one gallon of elover seed wall cleaned, or one bushel grass seed in the rough to the acre, either will be sufficient, 84. I *??e unrer tries! any of the commercial mpaurea, hot hare used cow lot Pad stable manure, and hare al way a spread them broadcast?plowed them in while preparing the laud. 4th. Never grase under 18 moiths, when it is intended for grazing or mow ing, aa it dc.a not get sufficient roots' until it is that old. In thia region, stock ahonld not run on olover after the 10th of March, if it is to be mowed. After mowing, it may be grazed until the next March again. 5th. Let the olover hoads turn one halt brown, and grass one halt yellow, for seed. I think grass would yield 15 or 20 bushels of seed, in the rough, to the aero. As to clover, I hare never cleaned any seed. 6th. For grazing, I think best to sow clover, herbs grass and cat grass together. For mowing, each should bo flown separate. 7th. I hare only sown with wheat or oats-?either will do equally well. 8th. I mow the clover when about one-half the heads torn brown, snd give it one-half day's sun?having it well scattered. Mow herds grass when one half the heads are yellow, and giro the same treatment as olorer. 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 a great while. 10th. -1 prefer red upland and high stiff bottom for olover, snd red upland and low stiff bottom for grass. I do not think that aandy 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, oso., the last days of August or 1st of September; this kills all poisonous plants, and gives the clover and grasses a ohance to get op. This is to be done, whether intended for mowing or grazing. gives us the following recipe for doing up shirt bosoms. And ladies who desire to make home happy, will do well to try tble experiment. It will be found a sov | Chances or Marbiaoe.?The fol lowing curious statement by Dr. Gran l^ills, is taken from the registered paper; it is drawn from the registered cases of 876 women, and is derived from their answers to the sge at which they are re spectively married.
