THAT NIXE MILLION JOB. MORE LIGHT UPON THE 0i?ERiTI0N3 OF THE BLUE RIDGE RING. TBE PERQUISITES OF A RADICAL GOV? ERNOR. The Amount of the Bids for Completing the Blue Midge Railroad-Character and Responsibility of the B ida cr *-ls Governor Scott Interested in the con? tract t-Information for the People. COLUMBIA, S. C., Tuesday, July 20. TO THE EDITOR OP TUE NEWS. Since the arrival of Tm NEWS of Saturday containing the expose ot the machinations of the Blue Ridge Railroad Ring, his Excellency Governor Scott has been as cross as a bear with a nore bead. No wonder. It is not pleas? ant to have a profitable little game hete np to public acorn; nor is it any consolation to know that there id a good cbaooe of one million of dollars (which MB Excellency expected to make,) slipping through one's fingers. The whole Radical ring here waa struck dumb with astonishment when it was found tbat Scott in? tended to gobbe np so big a share of the party spoils. The un dei strappers are mad, and Scott will either have to go enacks with bis followers or make another contract in which there will be less room for stealing. GOVERNOR SCOTT'fl REPLY. I do not know whetner Governor Scott in? tends to attempt any reply to the questions BO pithily pnt by THE NEWS. Ton might have Bared yourself the trouble, in any case. No one can disprove the main allegations of my previous letter; ont in order to satisfy some of the Quid Nunca here, I will say a few wards m regard to the amount of the bids of the differ? ent contractors, the responsibility of the differ? ent persons offering to do the work, and the reasons why I charge Governor Scott with having a pecuniary interest-direct or indi root-in the contract awarded to Cresswell (or Cries vii I, I don't know which) Patterson and Sellers. * THE BIDS. I have before me, as I write, a detailed statement of the price at which each part of the work was proposed to be done by tho dif? ferent contractors. This yon can have if yon want it. At present, I will only give tbe gross amount in round numbers of each bid : J. M. Chr'Biy * Co.$10 200.000 Dudley, Bardwell & Co. 9250,000 Cresswell. Sellers ? Co .. :. 10000.000 D. Tyier 4 Co. 8 7&OOU0 J. A. Bunt. 8 250,00? B.D. HasellJi o. 7600000 J. D. Champlin ?Co. 8 SOO OOO Eogineer'e estimate. 7,900 000 These ar3 not the exaot figures, but they are near enough. Now, I contend that Christy's b.d was only put in to be higher than Cresswell & Sel'era' bid. It was offered by a Dlr. Kelly, representing Christy ? Co., who, a ft or the Bing wae exposed, was charred to his face by Mr. Champlin with being "interested" in the bid of Cresswell A Sellers. Kelly appealed to Colonel Low, chief engineer of tbe company, to say whether Christy's bid was not a bona fide one. Colonel Low made no answer. Kelly than dented -that he waa "interested" m Crem well and Patterbon'a contract. A few minutes before he had told another gentleman tbat he had an interest tn CressvxWs contract. So much for Christy. As I have already said, the amounts given show the original bids. When Scott told the contractors that the bonds must not be touch? ed and that money must be found to carry on the work for nine or twelve months, those who bad not been in the secret (that is all but Crees wei I A Co.) claimed the right to modify their bids. All of them put in second bids, except B.D. Hasell, who joined in with Champ? lin. The second bids ran about ten per cent, higher than the first bids, except Champlin'e, which was Increased very little, if st all, leav? ing it by far the lowest offer, ??lind yon, all the contractors ware now on ?he same footing. Bot what did Scott do ? He deliberately pro? posed to Cree <well A Co. to take tbe contract st about $9,000,000, and they consented to take it. Here are the naked facts. The work, by chicanery and double dealing, is given ont at $9,000,000, sad 1 assert here, and it cannot be gainsaid, that the whole work can be done, and done well, for SEVEN MILLIONS cash, or BEVIN AND A HALT MILLIONS m first mortgage guaran? teed coin bonds. There is about iwo MILLIONS or DOLLARS pr J fi t to be made as the job stands. What will be Scott's share ? As hts time is short and he haB other irons in the fire, (State bonds, bank bille, land Bales, Ac.,) he may be satisfied to take only A MILLION ! Who will now say that Scott is good for nothing ? As Cresswell A Co. reduced their bid from $10,000,000 to $9.000,000, a corresponding valu? ation must bs made in the charges for iror, Ac, contained in my first letter. Tbis would bring the iron down to about $120 per ton ONLY $30 A TON MOBS THAN THE PRICE AT WHICH IT CAN BE DELIVERED AT ANDERSON. There is a proportionate difference in tbe oharge for chairs and spikes, which will stand at twelve cents and thirteen and a kai/ cents a pound, costing about FIVE AND A HALF CENTS in New York. WEBE THE CONTRACTORS RESPONSIBLE PERSONo? - I will tell yon all I know about the firms which offai ed to do the work. Ot the finn of D. Tyler A Co. General Tyler is the head, and it was represented by his BOO, who was formerly Superintendent of the Macon and Western Railroad aud lately of tho Phila? delphia and Erie Railroad. G?ncral T\ 1er has for many years been connected with public works as a contractor. Mr. Edgar Tnompson, President of tho Penu.vlvaoia Central Rail? road, has generally beeu onuectel with Gen? eral tyler, and would, it is believed, have been interested in the Blue B.d/e contract. J. A. Hnot, of North Caro.ina, is said to bo highly responsible as a contracto.-. He v.as present himself, and was also represented by Major G ul. ck. of this place. Colonel Child.*, of ibis city, can, I believe, give a Bali.-factory ac? count of Mr. Haut end tbe large iu.cre?ts which he repres?uts. B. D. Hasell, now of New York, is a nativ *f Charieatou, bud comes trom one of tho t families m the Si ate. Gu leaving college Lo chooso tho profession ot civil engineer, and has for more thaa twen<y y^ars boea connect? ed wit h railroads a?d other public works. Mr. Hasell was Chief Engineer of the Qatncy and Toledo Bauroad, Chief Engineer aud General Superintendent of tbe New Orieaus, Jackson aud Great Northern Railroad, and of tbe Mem? phis and Ohio Railroad, and during the war waa Presideut of the Charleston and Savannah Railroad. For the post two years he has been Goueral Aeeut of the Great Southern Freight Lino via Charieatou, S. C. Mr. Hasell bas tbo highest testimonials, is a first-rat-c engineer and can mike as close an estimate of tue value ot work ss un j man in the con itr>. Ho had good backers io New York, and coald have given security for twice tbe amount of ibo contract. I am told positively that Air. Bnseil's bid was rejected because "it was BO much lower than the other b.ds." I eiy that it was rejected because Scott w as not a partner in the concern. J. D. Champlin has been a railroad contrac? tor for many years. He built the Memphis and Ohio Railroad, did considerable work in Louisiana, had a heavy contract on the North Missouri Railroad, and is now carrying out a large contract in New Jersey. He brought letters from prominent bankers in New York and had a letter of introduction to Governor Scott from General Sherman. No use. Dr. Scott was not in the shop. The only persons of wbom I can learn but huleare J. M. Co ns ty A Co., and Cresswell, Patterson & Sellera. They are believed to be Pennsylvania men. As I said, Christy's bid was a mere blind. 1 think I have made it very clear that there were four responsible contractors who offered to do the Tork at from $1 OOO OOO to $1.500,000 leas than the price at which it was awarded to the Pennsylvania firm of Cresswell. Patterson A Co. This ie enough for ta; purpose. It is not necessary to rob it in. ANOTHER REASON WHY. One big teason why Scott preferred Cress? well to any other man, I forgot to mention. Mr. Champlin proposed thar the $4 000,000 guaranteed bord? bi leposi ted with a N ttional trust Company in the North, so that they could not be touched by the con tr ictor or the Governor until the proper time came. Cress? well A Co., on the contrary, said that they were willing that the $4.000 090 should be lodg? ed in the bands of Governor Scott and State Treasurer Parker. Cresswell A Co. look the contract. WHY SCOTT ITC ST BE A PABTNEB IN THE CON? TRACT. I have not seen the documents, and do not know what the figures are, but I say that Scott is to bare a plum ont of the Blue Ridge p e, for these reasons: The work conld be d me and was offered to be done at seven and a half mil 1 ions, and was awarded at nine millions; Cresswell A Co. wero allowed to negotiate with Scott, while the other contractors were not; Cresswell A Co.'s bid was not accepted, but Scott told them they conld have the job at niue millions, and they took it; DO similar opportu? nity was given the other contractors; Cresswell & Co. were in constant communication with Scott, and squatted in his back of? fice the dav the bids were opened; lob? bying, whispering and riding abont with Cress? well & Co. was going on all the time. These are my reasons, and they satisfy me, as I be? lieve they will satisfy the people of the Sute, who remember the manipulation of the State bonds and the bills of the Bank of the State, and who know that there is only one way io wbioh a man can make hundreds of thousands of dollars out of thirty five hundred dollars a year. Who would not b: the Radical Governor of a Southern State ? FIAT JDSTTTTA. I hare said my say, and said it withoot mal? ice. Ibis whole government is a plundering, pilfering Ring, whose aim is to make money quick, no* matter how. I koow it, and yon hnow it. My only object in writing these let? ters is to show np one or the biggest j o os on reeord-a little brother of the Pacific Railroad job; and to ask whether even our present Le? gislatura wifl a lo w Scott to have toll awing, and pile upon the State a load of debt which no people can bear. 1 do aot believe that their stomachs will stand it, and if this be so, then will Cresswell, Patterson A Co., and their silent partner, come to unmitigated grief. The taxpayers must remember that every million of dollars we spend represents $70,000 a year in taxation. They can readily see that $10.000,000, for the Bine Bidge Ring means an addition ol fifty per cent, to our pre? sent taxes, lhis is the whole matter in a nut? ehell. The Phoenix to-day, pitches into Scott very handsomely. I leave to-morrow for the moun? tains and shall not be back for a fortnight, when, if necessary, I will again present my re? epects to his Excellency Governor Scott. Lux. THE HABET FAMILY. Trouble Brewing nt Washington-A Chapter ot Interesting Political Gos? sip-Boutwcll TS, ihe President. A Washington letter of July 15th, to tho Cin. cinnati Commercial, says : We may or we may not like it, bot it is nev? ertheless a fact, t but a tempest is Known io be brewing in the admin sttative cir .-les. 1 am going to tell yon wuat is said among those who are classed as Radical Republicans, with my inference as to the weight that may be placed on their testimony. In the first place, it is considered that the President bas altogether too much sympathy with the reualt in Virginia ; that he prefers too openly the success of Sen ter io Tennessee, ol Hamilton i i Texas, and especially of lient, his brother-in-law, iu Mississippi. I hoard an active Radical Bay to-day, that the administra tion's policy was to secure the elimination ot the negro from national politics by adoption of tho pendine I'd teen th Article, aud leave uim iu thc native wh'te bands, so far us local State affairs are concerned. lt would appear that Governor Boutweil ie opposed to this. Ho is the outspoken R idical in the Cabinet, and ull who know him well un? derstand that he is a man with definite pur? poses, and clear and decided intentions of car? rying them out it that be possible; and of not being used to carry out any other line ot poli? cy, ii is affirmed mat tue point is re icu ea where the latter alternative is to be seen ap? proaching. Governor Boutwcll is undoubtedly very much dissatisfied with the resulto: the Virginia elec? tion. Hu has strained his influence to tho utmost to prevent the carly ordering of an sleetiOH in Mississippi, which could terminate only io a new Walker triumph. It is not that the Radicals object so much to Walker lum sef, uti they do to those i ho elect him. It ia rea-ouauiy concluded mat if the niau, bouy of supporters are irom tho rebel Democracy, then the State administration must bo strained tor then' bauolii,. oo with regard to tuc caudiuacy ot Louis Dent aa Governor of Mississippi. He will, like Waiker, be m the niaiu eustuLeu only bi thu old rebel ii fi umc s. It ia declared hy pe-iao-a g uer.illy well m foimed aa to the po-uttou of <uu Secretary ot thc Tieaaury and tho pohtic.il guaaip winch circulates about bim, thai, within a couple ol di)u Secretar,) Routweil and Judge Dent uaw liud some very warm words over tao Misais 8ippi app iiutuieuta - reve.'iud and ciistjriis.

Tue Appointment Clerk, Ur. tul? lock, into whoso banda Governor Boiit.veil has intrusted niucu ot tbe responsibility of tho chauire-i mada or itnpondiu:-. carno in tor a v.gorous denunciation, 'tullock is a Radical, und by bia iutimaio knowledge ot tho t>onth hos bsen able to secure Rad.cal appointments there ia most caaes where they have had nothing to do with the Methodi t Cnurcb at least, lt is r- ported that Governor Barnwell told Judire Dent that he proposed to run the Treasury, at le^st aa long as he was at iis head; and furthermore that bc looaed suspiciously ou ali political movements tliat fen it ?KCc.-sLry to prefix some word otb.r than waa adopted b.v tue pariv itself to the title of ibo Republican party. It this was said, it was certainly a neat drfve at thc National Guion Repub ican porty of Mississippi, wuich is the orgau.z.uoa by whom Judge Dent has beet trotted out. lt is also reported thal at the last two Cabi? net nieetin-s Governor Bou well has taken oc? casion to express himself in the Btron.eot terms in raver of -ustuini. g Republicanism pure and simple iu all the Southern S ates und as being remarkably su-oicious of all move? ments that pandered, nuder whatever guise, lo the rebel vote and support.. So much I deem to bj truth in all the ra mors I have outlined in the foregoing, and that is, that Mr. Boutwell declares that what influence the administration can give, legiti? mately, ?hall be extended in ali State elections to the Radical Republicans; while General Grant desires neutrality, unless the patties as? sume positions of active brat iii ty to. and equal? ly as active support of tho administration. All thia may seem speculation, and of an idle kind, but it is the cloud no bigger than a man's band in its risine. which threatens at last to overshadow the heavens. There are lbose who predict the resignation of Governor Boutwell before Congress reassembles. THE CHIN AM AIT AS HE IS. The New Element ot Labor In Califor? nia and the Wes -An Interesting Picture by an Intelligent Observer. The San Francisco correspondent of the Cin? cinnati Gazette writes : Wbat of the Chinese ? Much that is inter? esting and important. There are in round numbers one hundred thousand of them in the Pacific States, and the new arrivals now aver? age from fifteej hundred to two thousand per J month. They abound as laborers along the whole of the Central Paciflo Railroad to Pro? montory Point, and over this distance have pushed off into the towns as servants ai?d tradesmen, and into the mines wherever allow? ed to come. They are spreading eastward slowly; there are a few m Omaha, and John Chinaman, with his round bat and pig-tail coiled under it or dangling between his heels I his long hine shirt which he wears over his blue pantaloons, will shortly be no curiosity in the mississippi Valley, fie ia on bu way in force to make bis fnture Eastern employ? ers a visit. CUTS A TO WS IK SAN FSA NC 18 CO. Chinatown, as tbe quartet ol tne city in which the Celestials live is called, is certainly one of the most interesting spots to visit in California. There are abont a dozen blocks of w hose four sides a warm with them, and a halft dozen euee s for a distance of several squares are filled with their stores and shops. Nearly all are dressed alike, in long bine overshots j and pants. The round straw hat is, howe er, I, rapidly being abandoned for tbe American felt, j and the peculiar clogs and eboes for our j boots. The higher class of merchants wear a similar dress in style, of a dark and fine cloth, , and tbe rank and station is Bbown by the j length and thickness of the cue. Tbs ladies ] may be clad to know that these citizens Of the I : Fiowsry Kingdom bronght with them the arl of wearing the most deceptive additions into ; their bair, so that no matter what the crop is ? the ladies can have waterfalls of any given size, and the men of standing even cl any I, given lei gtb. Through all these streets, flam in;, red and yellow handbills, covered with i columus of their peculiar characters, tell these I multitudes of Bales and cheap goods, of letters 11 and new arrivals, ot tbeatres, and where labor? ers are wanted. 11 THE CHTNESB a*BUCHANTS. , I ' Every store has its Chinese sign and most I : of them are English ones also. Chy Long & I J Co. are ol i merchants of wealth and standing, so are Hip Yik and Hip Wo. I hey sell silks 11 and ivory goods, inlaid work, teas, Chinaware J ttbleware, groceries, cigars, and the coantlese other articles which are included in the name i ..curios."

Gem Leo, Hung Lee, Hip Ho, and otber firms with similar I < names, make you cigars, mend booie, or do I y ar wasbing and ironing, their market stalls 11 abound in articles which Americans know L little about. -.** HOW THE CHINESE COME. Six years ago tbe emigrat.ou began in earn- : est. Before there had been only enough on tbe coast to make them more than a curiosity. I . They cam? quiet ly, and engaged in such labor aa they coola obtain. They worked fer a trifle,} were temperate, industrious, honest and re? spectful. They became popular, and conse? quent inquiry for them aeon increased the Bupply. Tbe numbers which answered the call created alarm among the classes whiob had previously monopolized labor, demagogues caught at the opportunity of pandering to tho lower classes, and began to denounoe the new comers. From that time John has seen trouble enough. But bis friends are rapidly increasing now, and be bas already obtained a foothold from which he cannot be driven. He is here, and his friends and neighbors are coming. No power in America, as our laws are constituted, and considering tbe demand for I his labor on the whole coast, can drive bim back even if any considerable number of re? spectable citizens should desire to bid him good-bye. TEZ CHATTED OF THE DEM AOOOCES. The fact is, there is not such a widespread prejudice against the Chinese as Eastern peo? ple have been led to believe existed in Califor? nia. Tne large majority of the respectable people of both parties consider their presence a blessing. Politicians, or rather the unscru? pulous demagogues among politi nans, have caused most ot the trouble. To secure the tupport of the most reckless and vicious por? tions of the population, they have framed un just Jaws, and winked at outrages and abases which are a disgrace to the State. Against all this. John, by hie skid, patience, exemplary conduct, indus1 ry, and moderate charges for labor, is slowly but steadily working his way. JOHN PROTECTING HIMSELF. As the State refused them protection, they formed companies to aid and, so far as possi? ble, to protect eaoh other. There are now six o? th?s? io San Francisco, each under the di? rection of Chinese merchants of weal h, cul? ture and standing. The directors of these companies have a common place of meeline, aud their organization is complete. Tbe ex? istence of these associations has given rise to the story that the Chin amen who were brought over were really bold in a kind of slavery by these corporations, and that they were actual? ly bought and sold like slaves. There is no truth in this. The companies were formed as benevolent associations, aud in uo respect do they depart from their original design. Each company represents a certain district in China, and all who arrive havo the opportunity of joining the particular ODe covering the placa from which they come. Eicli is free to be? come a member or not, as he chooses. Thc fee of membership is ten dollar*. For this he receives assistance from the directors and their agcuta in obtainiug emplovm 'nt; he ts taken into tbe company's lodgiog-houseB and board? ed free, or at> a very email expense, till be ob? tains a place, and whenever he leaves or loses his situation, or comes in from the farms or mines, he finas a free lodging placo, and a hos? pital in case he is sick. THE PATJPEB CHINAMEN IN CALIFORNIA. The companies ootaiu employment tor their members. From this tact they have been Charged witn dealing in coolies. The charge IB wholly lalee. No member of the company is obliged io accept a place found fur bim it he docs not (lesite to do bo. though he must trust the companies implicitly, for the reason ibat he finas no better friends. Thousands who come aro brought bv thc Company fund ihrouch n previous arrangement niadooy the emigrants with tho agents in Clima For tho repayment of this the/ eire their word.

These eoniptu os lako en ire chai go of all pauptrs, and uo thiuama'i has a? yet become a charge upon tho State. Vf H AT JOHN CAN DO. California is blessed wi ll co d ard rich soil au J charmine climate. Ita resourcja are be? yond computation. Ita best citizens speak ol these, and then say that of all t heir blessings that of Cuiuese labor is ono of the greatest. Tho whole bumoets ind commerce ol the ?tate was langui-hing b?cause o: tue tc.trcity of laborers. Bu just in the time of croaieat need relief came. Women were few ia California, bi'u-e servants could bo found fjr tue wealth? iest alone. But John arri v jd and. though bo knew notbinc of Amencia housekeeping or c lokinc, he learned both airaos'- with a single lesson. But for John tho facific Railroad would bave been delayed three years. As aa ariist with shovel or drill, whe (barrow and cart, he has proved himself unsurpassed. He is temperate, has uo rows, is not al homo in a riot, has fe iv holiday a. boards himself, cooks bis own food to his liking, do:s bia own wash? ing, keeps h.mselisc upulouily clean, ia alwa>B respectful, contented and j ivis). He is above all other .-lassea a must uselul aud pleasant person tob ni.I railroads with. ALDINQ TO THE NATION'a WEALTH. Such a i eople are an acquisition m a great country needing development, even il tbev re? ceive what wLites demand for similar services. Bnt when the question of cost presents itsolf, the value of labor appears in a new and impor? tant light. Speaking in liberal terms, Chinese lAbor costs only one-third as mu :h as white workmen demand. Now, if they receive only lair treatment, ia there any limit to tue supply? China is crowded to overflowing with its popu? lation. We cannot stop the inroad if we would. Looking to the great undeveloped West, which stretches beyond the Rocky Mountains, the best men in both parties in California regard the promise for labor with rejoicing. Farmers are employing them io all directions. Silk colt are is opening, and cotton and rice and tea, it is confidently believed, will be hereafter raised successfully. The yield of gold and silver will be vastly in? creased the rdoment capitalists can succeed in securing Chinamen admission to the mines. With the present price of white labor, mmes which vieil less than about $20 to the ton can? not be worked. There are inexhaustible mines already known which will produce from $7 to $20 to the ton. With Chinese labor, all rock which produces $7 per ton eau be worked with profit. It can be faintly seen what advanta? ges to the whole country would flow from snch a change in mining. As yet it is impossible to introduce these people into the great mines, though they are gradually making headway. Where a white miner abandons his claim if h's daily receipts tall mnch below $4 or $3, a Chinamao thinks be ts making a fortune if he secares seventy-five cents. TSOn EDUCATION AND PAGANISM. Ninety-eight per cent, of those that come here can read and write their own language. &lost ot them are rapid in figuring. Th ir shildren learn our language rapidly ; the parents with difficulty, thongn they soon man? age to acqmre a stock of words and sentences which answer their purposes. They show a (treat anxiety to send their children to school where English is taught, though as yet few facilities bare been given them, for while they pay full school taxes, they have as yet been furnished but one school house for forty pu? pils. As a class, there is none so law- i biding not even tbe Americans - and none m re honest. They pay all taxes to the government cheerfully ana carefully, and the school tax of the State, though they have very small returns Tor the latter. The State imposes a tax of five dollars per lapita upon all the land, and some special licenses, snob as the miners' tax of three do - lars, the first of which the State has no right to collect. There are disgraces of this kind which demagogues have brought upon Califor? nia, but which the respectable classes do not sanction, and will rectify before long. They are idolaters. This is the mo it diffi? cult point in the whole problem, brill those who suppose that American civilization cannot stand against a few thousand or a few mil? lion Chinese, are borrowing mach needless trouble. Contrary to the opinion of most readers, the Chinaman erects no idol of God. He would no sooner do this than tho Chnatain. His faith ls thia : God is good and kmd,- and so merci? ful that hd will und.T no circumstances do ns anyth.ng hut good. Bat the Evil One bates as, and ia ever watching an opp irtnnity to in I ure and destroy us; we must conciliate him And so JOBS or Dc vii houses are erected, and insence burned constantly, and offerings made io conoihate the Devi). . * . THIMtt DEAD. They believe in the sweet influences of de parted-spirits, that the dead are constantly around them to watch, and guard, and help. The; make offerings of food at their graves, not, aa- is said with tho idea of feeding the dead, but to show them that they are remem? bered. Their name for Got! and tor the in? fluence whion these departed exert is the same as that which expresses the soft warmth aud effect of a southern sun failing upon a slope which lo 'ILS toward the south. They send their dead home to bury them in the family Une, so that the chain of ancestry may be complete, snd the sweet influences from the spirit would flow through the line un? interruptedly. If the une is broken by an ab? sent dead one, the influences are leas regular, and the wandering spirit is not at rest, and in? stead of watching to do good, desires to injure and make trouble in return for the neglect of his body. Three times a year offerings are made to departed spirits, and a late Emperor has decreed that the government make offer? ings also three times a year to spirits at large, that is to tue spirits of such aa have died in battle or have been lost at sea, and left unbu? ried or not returned to the graves where the family line is laid. WHY WEALTH IB MADE FOB CHINA. lt is charged that thoee who come hoard all their gold, and take it home, tb ns keeping mnoh coin ont of circulation. This has been true. The reason is obvious. The courts ex? tend no protection; their testimony was worth? less; they could not enforce contracte; sharp? ers were continually preying upon them, and ?o they were drivtn to trade with their own people, and hoard their gold. But under the encouragement which the better classes are giving them, all this is changing. Their merchants are erecting stores and in Vi sting m real estate. The laborers are purchasing homes and sending for their wives. More and more of those who go home are re? turning, and most of them with friends de - ign iog to stay. The attentioa of t.ie great Chinese capitalists of the Empire is being turned to our coast, and the hope among many of on; best business men in -san Francisco is that they will shortly bo induced to take hold of creat enterprises. The coin of tbe world has been pouting into China for generations, lu Can? ton and Hong Kong there are many native de? positors ot bro and six millions, and many Chinese companies which could tarnish fifty and sixty millions to such an enterprise as tho Pacific Railroad, or to steamship lines, if they could once be interested in the matter. Chi? nese merchants soy these men will invest the moment they can have full protection for their persons and property under the laws. Sprriol Stotim.
