Tike Chtneig L?bor Convention at Stem?
pln?.
D?ring the second day's proceedings
of this convention, one that has been
largely attended, and which has excited
great interest among the cotton planters
and railroad contractors in the States
bordering on the Mississippi and tribu?
tarios, two Chinese gentlemen were in?
troduced to and addressed the conven?
tion. Without comment, wo publish
the reported speeches of these two Chi?
namen, believing they will interest and
be acceptable to our readers:
Tye Kym Orr, a live Chinaman,
dressed American sn m mer fashion, and
without the inevitable "tail," but with
the unmistakable Chinese features and
color, and bright olive eyes, on coming
forward received a hearty reception. He
spoke in broken English, and in the
course of his remarks, which displayed
considerable shrewdness, ho said, that
he thought that it was a very great pri?
vilege to be allowed to address them.
He did not know till Sunday that he was
coming here, when Mr. Greenwood told
him he wanted him to go to Memphis.
He was a "Chinese" himself, but he left
China in 1863, and since that time he
bad been in the West India Islands, and
?Men a great many of his countrymen at
work, and he could tell them much re?
garding them. The emancipation in the
West India Islands, he understood, took
place in 1830, and the colored people be?
came very lazy, and then they got labor?
ers from India and Chimu and they were
now in large numbers ic British Guiana,
St. Vincent, Trinidad, Gauduloupe,
Goba, and other placos. They are all
heathens, as the gentleman from Missis?
sippi said. But, then, there is the more
necessity to Christianize them. You say,
.'Come ovor and help us," and they say,
"Lord, help ns, or wo perish." They
are ready to till tho fields, to build roads,
and to be the brothers of the people
here, and therefore the people of the
South may be tho means of turning
them from infidelity to Christianity, as
he had been. Although pagans in ro
Sard to religion, they were docile, obe
ient and affectionate, and would do any?
thing for those who were kind to them.
If they were only talked to kindly, they
were never tired of doing something for
"massa," as they called him. In reply
to Bundry questions, Tye replied that,
although not so strong as tho whito peo?
ple, they could do a great deal of work.
He warned the people of tho South in
regard to bringing the Chinese here in?
discriminately, and when this was done
in the West Indies, nothing but misery
had followed. Agents had sent there by
the wholesale, the good nnd the bad, thc
industrious and the lazy, and the worth?
less. If they wanted to get good hands,
they must go into the interior of the
country, and especially avoid the "town
rats," who were to bo found in the cities.
These "town rats" loft the country on
speculation to see foreign countries, and
would not work when they got here.
Barbers, shoe-makers and tailors were
not wanted, and they must steer ?loar of
speculators, as they only worked for c
per centage. He contended that the
Chinese were cjenerally faithful to their
contracts, and few of tho laborers were
opium smokers, as opium was a luxury
like champagne in this country. Theil
food was principally rice, salt fish nnel
vegetables, which they raised themselves,
He thought if they wanted good China?
men brought to the South, they ought
to send some good trusty man to China,
who would go 200 or 300 miles into the
interior, and pick out Hold hands, and
he felt sure nineteon-tweutieths woulc
turn out well. Ho said they ge nc mil)
made contracts for about five years, ant
the best place to get them from was the
Southern part of China, in the Province!
of Canton and Amour. If any of them
brought their wives with them the?
would also work in tho fields, for it wai
only in the cities that women had smal
feet. He went on to remark that fielt
laborers were about tho middle size, ant
worked best under a Chinese overseer
with a whito superintendent. Their pa]
was about $15 por month, while th<
overseer got $20 or $25. They wore wil
ling to do anything, and were no
treacherous or vicious. Very few were
fond of liquors, and they don't lik<
whiskey. He only knew ono who likee
whiskey, and he only took ono drinl
every Sunday. They got ulong with tin
white people very well, but whet
brought into contact with the negroe
they sometimes light, nnd tho negroe
being stronger get tho better of them
He said they were well acquainted witl
all kinds of farm work, and would soot
learn to do any kind of work on a eottoi
plantation, ns they were very imitative
and always tried to do what they wer
told, besides being docile and quiet
Ho hoped that those present would pu
no faith iu speculators who traded ii
Chinese to make money only; and thei
retired amitl applause.
Colonel Koopmanshaap, who had at
rived by the 2:40 P. M. train, enterci
the hall at this stago of thu proceeding
and was heartily welcomed.
The Chairman introduced him to th
Convention as Mr. Koopmunshanp, th
delegato from California.
Col. Koopmaushaap, on coming foi
ward, was received with much applause
Ho said ho had just arrived and was ghi
to meet such a largo assemblage presen!
ns it proved that great interest was take
in the Sooth io the Chineen labor ques?
tion. He had been connected with the
bringing of 50,000 or 60,000 Chinese to
California, sad a very large number of
them had been employed on Ute Pacific
Baubad, and about 8,000 or 3,500 were
at present still employed, where they
were paid Si to 81.50 per day in gold.
He thought, however, they could bogot
here for ?12 per month. In Cnba, where
living was so cheap, they were paid $5 to
$8. Ho was of the opinion that the cost
of transportation from China would be
from $80 to $100. If contracts should
bo made they will be made from two to
five years. If these terms suited, they
can be agreed on, and the terms would
be little better than in the State of Cali?
fornia, where tho Chinese have not been
so well used lately. The Chinese gene?
rally came by thousands. Only a few of
the leading merchants brought thoir
wives. He Wis prepared to make any
contracts that might bo necessary, and
would be prepared to answer any ques?
tion. In reply to a question from Colo?
nel Martin, he said that when tho Chi?
nese made special contracts they gene?
rally carried them out.
THU PRESIDENT AND HIS CAUINET ON
THE VIRGINIA ELECTION.-It appears that
while tho President is satisfied with the
results of tho late Virginia election sotuo
of the members of his Cabinet, including
Messrs. Bout well and Creswell, are not
satisfied, and aro working in behalf of
Wells, and tho ultra radicals of Virginia,
to have tho good work done in that Stato
upset by Congress. Now, as this recon?
struction business will admit of no
further trifling or factious resistance, it
becomes the duty of tho President to im?
press this consideration upon his Cabinet
in a way which will not admit of misun?
derstanding. He onght to iuform the
members of his Cabinet that ho among
them who is not with his chief on this
important matter, but in aotive opposi?
tion to him, must surrender his objec?
tions or his place. Tho President can
do nothing with a discordant Cabinet,
and it is his first duty, as he himself has
clearly indicated, to secure a Cabinet
that will bo a unit, whatever the changes
required to this great end. Of all things
it is of the highest moment to the. Presi?
dent that he shall be the bead of his ad?
ministration.-Nexo York Herald.
THE NEW Yo UK POST OFFICE.-The
work upon the new post office in New
York city will be commenced at an early
day. Mr. Mullett, supervising architect
of the Government, will open bids on tho
31st instant, for making the excavation
and removing the iron railing, and on
tho 14th of August bids for furnishing
material for thc foundation. Messrs.
Stewart, Greeley and Orton, tho com?
mission to effect a change of tho site as
authorized by Congress at the last ses?
sion, having failed to accomplish that
object, the building will be erected on
the original site-the lot in form of an
equilateral triangle of about 300 feet on
each side at the Southern extremity of
tho City Hali Park. Congress, at the
last session, appropriated $200,00.) to
commence tho work on this building,
and Mr. Mullett feels confident that if
tho necessary appropriations bo made,
tho building can bo completed and ready
for occupancy within two years.
SAD DROWNING.-The Savannah News,
of yesterday, reports tho death, by drown?
ing, of Henry Rosenfeld, a youth of about
sixteen years of age, whilst bathing in
the river on Sunday. He was a nephew
of the Hov. J. Bosenfeld, of Savannah,
and the son of a merchant of Breslau,
Prussia, and was sent to Savannah by
his parents, a little more than a month
ago, for the purpose of gaining familiar?
ity with American manners and customs,
preparatory to entering a German and
American trading house in his native
city.
REPORTED SECESSION OF RADICAD SE?
NATORS FROM THE PARTY.-A Northern
exchauge says: "There are rumors of a
serious break in tho Republican party.
It is reported that Senators Sprague,
Ross, Fowler, Henderson, and perhaps
one or two others, will hereafter refuse
to act wich tho Republican majority in
tho Senate, whilo Chief Justice Chaso is
now said to bo in full sympathy with tho
Democrats. The only member of Lin?
coln's original Cabinet who now acts
with tho Republicans is Simon Cameron,
who was turned out of it for oorruption."
A German, namod Carl Schell, married
a young girl just from the Faderland, at
Omaha, some three weeks ago, in a most
peculiar manner. He purchased a pair
of ear-bobs, put them in her ears, and
iuformed the young lady that "this little
ceremony constitutes a marriage in
America." After a week had passed ho
took them out, and informed her of an?
other piece of news, viz. : "This little
ceremony constitutes a divorce in Ame?
rica." He is now in jail for stealing a
trunk.
Between 9 and 10 o'clock ono even?
ing last week, two young ladies informed
tho keeper of one of th? hotels at Rocka?
way, named Mott, that they had been
chased from the beach by three mon.
Mott and his bar-keoper, named Connor,
went out, and, meeting three Catholic
priests, assaulted thom most violently,
and stabbed ono of them, Father Owons,
of Newark, so severely that last night ho
died of his wounds.
Count d'Aquila, father of tho Bourbon
who married Miss 1 buuel, is turning all
his reul estate into personal property,
that his son. may not inherit ono cent of
bia property.
A "Nsw WAT OV Dncromo Quo WAB
BAUTOS-SOU? 8HABT THICKS OF A SHARP
ALDERMAN.-That the Eepnblican party
ie wearying of its old weapon, Quo War?
rante, there can bo no doubt, and there
can scarcely exist a doubt that their nev.
precess of deciding disputed titles to of?
fice is as novel aa it is unique. Upon the
passage of Aldermen T. J. Mackey's res?
olution authorizing the Mayor to employ
the police force to induct tho new officers
into office, everybody seined to think
that it was mere balderdash; that the
Mayor was too sharp to be led by the
nose into a breach of the peace, and that
the police force would never be imed for
that purpose. But the developments of
Monday have shown that tho wily Alder?
man is up to a thing or two, nnd tho
flank movement that he perpetrated upon
the incumbents establishes nt once his.
claim to smart generalship. Ou Satur?
day, it has already been stated, tho
Mayor demanded the surrender of tho
offices of Assessor, Assistant-Assessor and
City Sheriff, which demand being refused,
evorybody expected to sec a flood of Quo
Warrantos pitched nt tho offending
holders of the offices aforesaid. But not
so. The Alderman who offered that
resolution resolved to seo it through.
He believed that locksmiths wero better
and more effective than policemen's
clubs, and accordingly, at an early hour
on Monday morning, whilo tho incum?
bents were calmly and composedly pre?
paring for the day's labor, Alderman T.
J. Mackey, in company with a police
officer and a locksmith, proceeded to the
offices aforesaid, the doors of which
yielded to the gentle application of a
skeleton key, and lo! tho newly elected,
having been previously sent for, were
put into possession.
The Bame flank movemont was qnictly
and skillfully dono, and when the officers
arrived at the usual hour they found their
opponents in possession, with a club and
star at tho door, which intimated to
them that they could not go in.
The shrewdness of this step can be
perceived, when one recollects that it was
obviously delayed until Judge Carpen?
ter had left the city, so that there is now
no Court open to Messrs. Hughes, Fra?
zer and Querry.-Charleston Courier,
INDIA LADIES AND HOW TUET ARE
DRESSED.-The ornaments worn by tho
native women of India are something
wonderful. Commencing at the toes and
going up, or commencing at the head
and coming down, it is a mazo of myste?
ry. The hair is handsomely dressed, and
lilied with all kinds of silver arrows and
gold darts, and bound with bands of
gems and precious stones. The ears are
pierced for not only ono set of ear-rings,
but for several, the usual custom being
seven holes in the right ear and six in
the left, which, in a full dressed belle,
aro filled with rings. Tho nose in usually
pierced in tho left side, and a riug with
pendant jewels hang around the month,
dangling upon the chin. Tho neck is
heavily laden with necklaces of metal,
precious stones, coral and pearls. Tho
bracelets on the arms are of silver or
gold, according to tho means of tho
wearer, some of tho fair sex wearing as
many as twenty-five or thirty bracelets
on either arm. The fingers aro covered
with rings in the same profusion, with
the addition of a seal ring on each thumb,
which is generally the finest and most or?
namental. The anklets of tho higher
classes are of solid gold, set with pre?
cious stones, and are extremely beauti?
ful.
Little bolls are attached, so that in
walking or danciug time is kept to tho
motion. The toes are frequently covered
with rings, the seal being worn on top as
upon the outside of tho thumb. An
ludia bello in full costume may wear
several pounds of jewelry and not be
over-dressed. The mysteries of tho fe?
minine toilet are beyond my comprehen?
sion. Some wear fine silk shawls as a
nether garment, wound around in a most
mysterious way, and are covered by an?
other shawl of the same material, which
hangs over the shoulders and is conti?
nually fluttering as if trying to escape
from a silver or gold band which fastens
it around tho waist. Tho little children
were dressed in admirable taste, and
looked as fresh and sweet as flowers.
A Paris princess sues for separation
from ber husband, and pats forth as tho
main ground an instance of conjugal cru?
elty. The prince did not beat her, did
not kiss her waiting-maid, did not flirt,
did not absent himself without cause,
did not deny her an opera box, a Cash?
mere shawl, or any other necessary of
life. But this monster in human form,
returning to Paris after two years' ab?
sence in Mexico on duty, telegraphed to
his disconsolate wife, not auy words of
thrilling joy at his return, but the bru?
tally laconic message: "Where aro my
shirts? I cannot find them."
SUDDEN DEATH.-In Raloigb, on Fri?
day last, Mr. Gerry, the door-keeper of
Colonel Ames' New Orleans Circus and
Menagerie, was stricken by apoplexy,
and died in about six hours. Ho was a
native of New Orleans, and was known
in Charleston, through which ho fre?
quently passed.
Tho Clinton (Mo.) Advocate has the
following significant item: "Tho horse
thief that sold Henry Hickler a pony last
week, and then went down to Leesville,
and stolo Henry Bradley's mnlo, was
caught. Ile will not steal any moro in
this world!"

INQUEST.-About 8 o'clock, yesterday
morning, the body of a yonng co lo reel
boy, named Thomas Holmes, was dis?
covered in the river, near Guignard'e
Ferry. An inquest was held by Coroner
Thompson, and after a careful inquiry
into all the particulars, a verdict of acci?
dental drowning wuS rendered by tho
jury.
Jon OFFICE.-The Phoenix Job Office
is prepared to execute every style of

to pamphlets and books. With ample
material aud first-class workmen, satis?
faction is guaranteed to all. If our work
does not como up to contract, we make
uo charge. With tbis understanding our
business men have uo excuse for sending
work North.
Yesterday, about half-past 1 P. M.,
our city was visited by a refreshing
shower of rain-especially grateful after
the long period of boat and drought
under which it suffered. We earnestly
hope it is but the first instalment of a
largo debt in rnin to which we are justly
entitled. The clouds give indication that
a renewal of the performance may bo
expected, aud wo hopefully look forward
for a bountiful rain, which will rc-iustate
our suffering fields aud parched gardens.
We aro informed that there have been
plenteous rains in tho upper and lower
portions of our District.
TUE DIFFICULTY ON SUNDAY-NAUGHTY
BOYS.-A rather amusing seen o took
place Tuesday morning at Mayor's Court.
It would appear, that on last Sabbath, a
fight took place at or near the river, be?
tween a number of white and colored lads
of tho city-their ages varying from
seven to seventeen-cause, supremacy as
to a bathing location; each nico contend?
ing for a certain locality, considered by
them as best suited for the purpose
the whites taking the position that it hud
descended to them from a long line of
ancestors, who had always bathed in
that particular spot; the colored boys
contending that tho river was as freo to
them as to anybody else. A slight quar?
rel took place, based on theso grounds,
on tho Sabbath previous, which caused a
mustering of the forces of the two bel?
ligerents on the next Sabbath. The
white lads repaired as usual to tho quar?
ter in question, and found the enemy
had already taken possession. Neither
side being confident enough in their
numbers or physical ability to commence
hostilities, scouts were despatched to
rally their forces, when dire work was to
be done by the contending hosts for the
vantage ground. On an examination
into the particulars of tho disturbance,
tho Mayor caused all of tho parties con?
cerned to bo summoned before him.
From tho evidence, it would appear that
the difficulty was of long standing, and
the principal cause, as well as tho prime
mover, was a long, thin-visaged colored
individual, who, at the last concert by
the band, in Jnnney's Hall, had managed
to climb to the top of a shed, to got a
surreptitious viow of tho performance,
without the usual fee on such occasions;
and some of the boys having discovered
his whereabouts, began to toss rocks
just to seo how near they could come to
his cocoanut without hitting it; but, as
luck would havo it, one or two of tho
missiles lit on a soft spot, and tho victim
forthwith descended, thirsting for re?
venge. Thinking*, at first, it was some
of his own color, tho tall individual be?
gan to curse and abuse them; bat being
told it was some white boys, he turned
tho tables and cursed them for whito
Democratic rascals; and has since fol?
lowed them up with a zeal worthy of a
better cause. It was proven before his
Honor that ho was tho instigator and
captain-general of tho fight on Sunday;
that ho mustered his troops and was
armed with a pistol and hickory stick;
but finding the game getting n littlo too
hot, he took to in's heels and mado good
time. On Monday morning-still not
satisfied-ho (a man in size) wanted to
fight a littlo boy, when ho was arrested
for breaking tho peaco, fined, and bound
over to keep tho peace-which, it is to
bo hoped, for tho honor of our usually
pcaceablo city, ho will do. Thc Mayor
lectured tho rest of tho party-among
whom wero a number of littlo darkies
who just wont down to seo which side
would get whipped. It might have been
a serions affair, as both parties seemed
quite determined; but ono of them ran
away-on tho principle that "bo who
lights," etc. Tho belligerents were cau?
tioned that tho police would bo on tho
alert, and any manifestation of a diffi?
culty would cause thom trouble; and so
tho case was dismissed.

was welcomed in a fow words by Ahe
colored Chairman of tho State Central
Committee, A. J. Ransior. Tho Neics
naya:
"Dr. Mackey responded by thanking
the speaker and tho assembled citizens
for their generous welcome, which he
attributed, not to his personal merits,
but to fidelity to the principles of Re?
publicanism. He said that he valued
this grateful tribute of esteem from his
political friends and associates in his
native city more than the glittering bau?
ble of public office; that his official rela?
tions with tho administration were not
yet formally dissolved, and hence he did
not think this time proper for him to
present his views fully in regard to its
recent acts as they affected himself, bot
that ho would, at no distant day, lay be?
fore his fellow-Republicans a chapter of
political history, which would show that
senators and representatives whom they
and he had elevated to power, had base?
ly betrayed their trust. On that occa?
sion, he would spare no traitor; that they
bad taken certain men from the mire to
place them in exalted positions, and the
people whom they had betrayed would
consign them to their original mud. He
concluded by denouncing the covert
attempt to organize a third party here;
declared that conservative Republican?
ism ia Democracy in disguise; and said
that we shall have no Virginia in South
Carolina; that he knew no Republican?
ism but radieal Republicanism, and that,
as a radicPi Republican, ho would stand
or fall."
