CHINAMES AS LABORERS. A letter io the New York Commercial Adver? tiser ?aje: The Taine of Chinamen as laborera bas been underrated in this country. I have seen them in all parts ot California, engaged in a great variety ol c ccu pat iona - as agriculturists, cooks, mechanics, miners, etc.; on the Pacific Kailroad, in situa'iona affording ampio eom psriaon With Europeans; also, on tbe Pacific mail steamer s between San Fiancisco and BOB? Kong, where they form entire crews, discharg? ing the duties of boatswains, assistant engineer, Ac., with entire acceptance, and 1 bava seen them in osmpetirion with Japanese, on J?psn ase soi'. In the position of "shroff," "com? prador," or accountants, they are cot excelled. Enter any or the English or American bouses in China or Japan and doubt B on this point, if ai y exist, will be rt moved at onoe. Or yon need not go further than the splendid bulld . lng of tao Sank of California: in San Francis? co. Wherever yon can find a pile of i taboos or Mexican dollars there yon may expect to see a disciple of Confncins with eagle-eye and dose shaven bead, discharging his duties not only with fidelity, bnt with surprising dexter? ity and precision. Aided by a mathematical machine ta frame with wires ?nd slidmsr ~a!I.*) their accuracy in computation is almost un? erring. Whatever your former estimate as to csamcity or moral qualities, prejudices must surely yield to respect, at least so far as con- | oems the better cl asees. This last quahfyiog clause, yon may properly remark, is well added, for no people on earth manifest class distinc . fame, more plainly than tbs Chinese. Any where among a pr miscnons company, (aod nowhere more readily than among the se? or Qed cooke passengers of a Pacific mail steamer, ) diff?rences of east are boldly marked in feature, h. ir, complexion, babita, deport? ment, Ac. Lot whatever their failings or de fioienciee, they may be relied on to possess ?he essential, requisite capacity for hard labor. 1 volunteer these remarks bc cause you have reason for a certain degree of distrust in sc? oop tang the testimony cf California newspapers tonohmg this entire subject. They must speak guardedly in deference to a sentiment entertained by a large class of population there hos.ile to the introducion of Cbinese labor because of its cheapness-a sentiment so rampant,. that, were it not for the reso? lute attitude of "Jaw and order" citizens, the world ere this m gbt have been horrified by tidings of a widely-concerted conspiracy and attempted general massacra on the Pa? cific coast, . Though Chinamen for the most part carry with them the pale.. saUew complexion com? mon to Asiatics, and looroompaiattvely frail, experience on the Pacific Railroad and else? where baa proven that a given number of this . sort of laborers matched with an equal norn ber of Olta and cet to work will be quite as likely to come ont first on the opposite side of aaandbark or bed of rock. Thu is what tells the story. A JAPANESE EXECUTION. While we had been making our tour of in? spection, the doomed tttlprit had been unlash? ed and dlemotmted from bis norse at the gate. Bot whan set on his feat he was unable to stand-, owing to weakness and the constrained Sttd painrnl posit ian io which he had been kept so long, and his guards were obliged to carry bim into tbe precincts of the prison. Here an ample breakfast had been provided, of which he ate heartily and with evident enjoyment. After a fall half hour it waa intimated to him that lia pr?sence was expected. Witb the as shrtanee of an attendant on each side be walk? ed slowly nato the execution ground, and waa placed, kneeling and sitting on his heels, IQ tbe rinivtWsaTJapanese posture, behind a s^all hole dug out for the reception of his' ead. Some ten yards in front of him. and separated by a rope running across the square, sat tbe presiding yakonia and the prison authorities, calmly fanning themselves; and beyond these again were the axx or eight foreigners wbo had been admitted. The prisoner's arms were then pinioned behind his back;. but before the doth was tied over his otes he requested -that a minute's grace might be allowed bim. This being granted him. he raised a weak, quavering voice to its highest pitch, and screamed out, "My friends 1 ' Im? mediately au u n ean hJy chorus of wails answer? ed the poor wretch from bis friends outside tbe walls, none of whom could se seen from the interior. This was followad by ' Byonara," (good by,) and by a deeper and m re prolonged wall' from the crowd outside. The prisoner thain signalled tobie guards that he waa ready, and submit' ed quietly to the op?ration of blind? folding; the executioner stepped up, and care? fully adjusting the victim's head a little on one side, so as to hang exactly over the hole pre? pared to reavive it, signified that all was ready; the word was given, when, without raising h s weapon more than a foot above the neck of the eondomned, the executioner brought donn his heavy blade with an audible tbud, which sev? ered the bead instantly from the body. Immediately the head fell it was sewed, care? fully washed and cleaned, the procession waa reformed aa before-except that the hcrse pre vioosly ridden by the deceased ac w earned the expontiouei in charge >ef the life'ess bead -and wended ita way to a raised mound at the aide ot the highway a quart er of a mile dis? tant. Here a kind of gadows bad been erect? ed, and on this was placed the dead man's bead, supported in its position by clay, there to remain six days, m sight of all passers-by. sad a w'ru ic g to nil evil doers.-lyman Ab? bott, tn Harper's Magasin*. THE AMT OF SLEEPING. Game persons nave the gift of a'eep, and need sot cultrwstai the art of sleeping. They can lie down and- go to sleep anywhere and at any time, aod under almost any conceivable ci room ata?ese. They can sleep when they are sick, and steep-away their si can ees ; they can sleep when they are in tr?cele, and forget all their carer.- they caa sleep on a soft bed, o - a hard 9ja*i. with comfortable pillows under their beads, or without them. They cc old lie-down " in the midst of the sea," or " upon tbe top of a mast," and sleep-sleep. And even if they cannot find a place to stretch themselves, they can still sleep, bol t " upright, in a chair, in a car. or anywhere, their heads wagging round, to be sure, but their senses locked np qnietlv in the arms of I sleep- ?weet aleen. They can do sdi this OD an empty stomach, and so forget their bnngjr; and they can do it equally weil on a full stom? ach. ?nd leave nature to take care of tts load. Such people may truly be said to possess the gift of sleep. Borne persons may call them ''sleepy beads;*' vet they contrive to get through the world very comfortably, and though they may not be lean and hungry-look? ing, an i may even .be enclosed iu their own fat, some of them, they are not necessanlv heavy and stupid when awake. S > far from lbw, some of them are as wide awake and sharp when at work as the least sleepy of mor? tals. W? chance to know some of this breed of sleepy men and women, who are a match for anybody wbeo awsse. But t-leep to them is a gila, not aa art, nor an acquisition. There is, however, another class of homans, and much the most numerous class, too who are poor sleepers, light sleepers, dainty sleep era, with whom sleep-good, sound, refresh- , mg, continuons -leep-is the exception io their j experience, and not the rule. These people need to study the art of sleeping. And first and foremost, they must carefully guard against the use ot indigestible food and every thing that tend* to the derangement of the stomach. Three-quarters ot all our sleepless? ness arises from inqui?tude of the intestinal canal. A plentiful, but digestible and simple dinner, a light and very plain supper, taken hoon before bed lime, a sponge bath bet re going to bed, which anybody cac have in his own chamber; a well-aired bedroom, and not over heavy bed clothing, rather ugbt to begin with, with a reserve blanket for after midnight, xeneede-l, are all the precautions for the light sleeper. Light and pleasant employments and ei joy men ts for some hours before retiring are also ( quite deeiiable. Tbe diversion of the mind | from any aosarbtag, and particularly any discomforting and trou bl asome subject of , fhougtit is also quite necessary. Aod then, a < good (air start towards sleep, when tbe bed is ? -first reached, is very important. Every man, rn t ? wheo be gets into bed, should settle himself ?oietiy at once, and then say, "Now I lay tne own to sloep,," and snit hm actions to tr? words. Ii he once begins to turn from aide to side, it is allover with him. It will be all night with bim. There ie more io thia getting of a fair start j at once than most people are aware ot. It is like getting a cc od start in a rsx?-the inside oft be nue. After, all however, one may be beateD. But the chances wih be greatly in bis favor, if, in addition t ? previous precautions and preparations, he lays himself do wo at once to sleep. Bat suppose be wakes ont of hid first sleep after an hour or two? Why then he must play possum and pretend to sleep, and by no means allow himself to be folly toused, il ne can pos? sibly avoid it. People go to sleep by sections, and they wake np ordinarily in the same way ; and, if care is used, the wo ole mao may not be roused, and onlv a part will have to be quiet? ed again. Yet after all, the sleep-seeker may ruiscrablv fad of his intended rest; for the beet device of men and mioe will som- times gang awry; and then thero is nothing better to do but'pet np for a walk around the room, a draft of water, s quiet rock in an easy-chair, s thor? ough cooling of the persen and the bed, aid another at tem t st sleep. Above all things avoid getting into a fret because of roar sleeplessness. Don't think it a very grievous or nnnsnal thing for one to be awake three or four boors on a stretch. You j "will soon get used to tbs thing, or by patient reinstalling overe?me the restless habit We know men who are reasonably hale and hearty, though approaching their threescore years and len, who yet hardly know from their own ex? perience wha an uni D term pt ed nights Bleep, means, and whose nights are ordinarily broken by hours of wakefulness. The ?nil has mach to do with ones sleep. By irai nine, the mind and body may be taught to obey pretty generally the determinations of the will. John Wesley learned to go to sleep wben he would and where he would, and to sleep as long ss be would. If he bad half an boor's leisure, and neede 1 sleep, be would throw himself" down and take the required rest. Danit I Webster, rf we mistake not, had some? thing o' the same power of going to sleep when be would. And though ev erv body can? not do exactly as Wesley or Webster did, they msy approximate towards them by the persis? tent exercise of the will in controlling mind and body; and even partial success will pay well for the trouble takeD.-Boston Tratetier. WHAT 18 UNDER THE CRUST. At Hampstead, in England, the Waterworks Company, in 1853. bored sn artesian well to the depth of 1302 feet, or within a few feet ot a quarter of s mile. Tne company sunk about ?8000 in this well in two years, and found no water. The section of toe boring shows sixty eight difieren-, strata. The last layers are, sn eight feet depth of red sandstone, micaceous and quartzose; a two feet depth of light red clayey Band, with small angular fragments of | obert and flint; and s six feet depth of wnitish and greenish b? rd s indstono. Mr. J. G. Sym? ons, a scientific Englishman, thought this hole in the ground m ?fr ht be turned to good use in the canse of science, even it it had failed to be of | practica I benefit by cooling the parched throats ot tbe Hampsteadera and patting money in the purse of tbe company, tie was a membar of | a committoo appointed by the British Asso? ciation to investigate the temperature of tho earth at great depths; and st once saw that here was sn excellent opportunity to conduct his experiments s quarter of a mile down, sven ?4 be should never have sn opportunity of | Sing lower. We do not propose to say sav? ing of th 3 difficulties be bsd to ec co un ter, t he ingenious apparatus be used to overcome these difficulties, io., Ac. It is the results "or the experiments, eo far, that we wmh to call stten tion tb, sad these may be briefly stated. Mr. Svmon's experunsots are not yet concluded. He has made them week by week since January, sod the resalta so far he regir?s ss st any rate decisive. Ho has mads gradual observations down to s depth of 1100 feet, and bu ascer? tained that tbe temp?rai are th M e is twenty de? grees nigher tbsn above ground-that is to say, the thermometer showed seventy decrees, whereas the mesa temperature of London is fifty degrees. If this rate of increase con? tinues, ss there seems no reason to doubt would be the c*?e, toiling point (two hundred sod tea degrees) would be rescbed sbont s mile and a bali down. There ia then s rise of temperature of ono decree in every fifty-five feet of the earth's crust. At this rate, we would not -have to go many miles down to reach a point where all matter is m a stale of fusion. The resolte of these experiments will be used lu calculations ss to age of the earth, from the thickness of | the crus'; but who knows that there mav not come a day when aome more practical advan? tage - ill bo derived. Why should we suffer from cold, or darkness, or coal-strikes and re? sulting high pricer for fool and gas, wich this immense reservoir of beat snd light beneath our feet? Will not som: inventive genios turn bis efforts in this direction, and earn thc title of benefactor of bis race, by bnng.ng these low-down products of mother earth into the market?
