T he OblatM Question and the Fifteenth
Amendment*
The emigration of Chinese population to
the ttnited States it exciting the liveliest
Interest in ell seetlene of the country. It
is discussed in eeerly every paper, political,
literary and religious. We were about to say
.. that it is sagging the profound consideration
.of the country, but tbia would be a
mistake; generally, the most superficial
viowa of its results have beeu put forth?
mere specula!ions ou the supply of labor.?
The change which it may work in the social
and polltial condition of the country, hao
been scry little considered; yct? when we
view it in eon.iexion with the despotic interference
of the ** Fifteenth Amendment,"
with the question of suffrage in every State,
Chinese Immigration assumes sn importance
that cannot well be overrated. When the
dogma of enforced universal suffrage, extending
to all clamea, races, colors and nationalities,
however black or yellow, or
however heathenish, was pr? jected after the
close of the war; this matter of the Chinese
immigration arid its tremendous consequences,
was discussed by ue, nnd we endeavored
to point out some of the mis
chiefs that would ultimately arise from it;
misehiefa, not local or sectional, hut that
would operate upon different States and localities?indeed
indirectly upon the whole
oniuitry. All agree in the opinion that the
liJe of emigration from Asia to the United
States will be vast, and beyond calculation,
exceeding what has been going on from
Europe. The population of China is four
hundred millions, and is greater than that
of all Europe and all North and South
America combined. They may fill up the
United States with numbers to become over
whelming, nnd scarcely miss them. The
Fifteenth Amendment which Congress iiss
coerced the States to ratify, will give them
political power. California will (eel it first,
the Southwest and South next, New England
indirectly very s?on after, if not co
temporaneously, and t lie latter, in all probability,
more disastrously in the long run,
than any other section of the United Stater
Although tbey think not so at present, and
may never have among them any considerable
number of Chinese votes, The first
effects of Chinese voting and Chinese weight
in the national scale, will be, we think, politically
advantagioua to the South and
Southwest. They are different from what
(lie negroes have hitherto shown themselves.
They are a more disposed to assist and
protect their employers, and are innately opposed
to foreign and extraneous interference.
The control ol carpet bag politicians would
be shunned by tliem en tnnu, and whether as
laborers or as property holders, they would
never support men and parties in Vermont
or "Massachusetts in opposition to the States
and localities whore they might dwell, nor
would they Ignorantly favor oppressive
laws and taxes, like I lis Afiican, without
Wing able to see their injurious operation
upon themselves. The representation their
numbers would give the South and West in
the National Councils, and in Presidential
elections, would effectually overcome the
power of New England politicians. Their
presence wottM hasten the transfer of man
ufacturing industry io the South and West.
The Chinese are remarkably adapted by
nature for skilled labor?whether in the
field or in the factory, and are said to be
faithful and obedient aa domestic servants.
Every kind of manufacture in the Southwest
would be soon superabundantly supplied
with laborers and artisans by this
race of people. Theif ingenuity and Imita
live faculties are great, and they will be
able to put the'.r hands to any kind of work
and patiently pursue it. Independently of
the coming Chinese, we believe that the
South and West are destined to become
their own manufacturer^ but with their assistance
they will be able to manufacture
for the North also. New England, by her
Fifteenth Amendment, is hastening there
fore her own doom of future Inevitable
relative decline in manufactures and trade,
and monopoly almost of Government plunder,
upon which she has waxed fat and
kicked other sections of the United Stales.
That decline was foreshadowed io the triumph
of their interference with the negro
question at the South, which triumph was
consummated, not in the fact of emancipation
merely, but in the j^roeeriptive and
disfranchising and disabling measures aimed [
at us; and we believe she will effectually
cnmm't political hari kari by hor favorite
Fifteenth Amendment, which her conceited
leaders are forcing upon the Constitution.?

fieancfi in bringing tlie mighty Wert and
the moat populous ports ot the South into
competition with her in her own fields of
industry, with constantly growing advantages
on the pnit of her competitors. The
days of New England ascendancy are going,
going, and will, ere long, be gone. It never
could hava become what it has recently
been, in the Notional Councils, but for the
artful use they hove made of the negro
phrenzy that culminated in the late war,
and which the Fifteenth Amendment will
finally extinguish. It will be the and of
their so called philanthropic agitation,
which has Issthertobeen expounded by their
rsids upon Souhern society and the rights
of the States. Having put all power into
one bag, the heavy end will be found So lire

choice, to corrupt our society, damage our
civilisation and ultimately destroy all free
government The presence of large numbers
of Chinese in the 8outh will perhaps
discourage also the immigration of Rurope
ana and of our Northern white citisenr.
These we know to be capable of advancement.
We want permanent eitixens of our
own race. We have already enough of
color, and should desire no more, notwithstanding
their introduction may give us pro
ductivo laborers and mqre speedy political
power which might add to our prosperity
for a brief period. Prosperity, so produced,
would be unhealthy, and end in decay and
death. It is true that there are sections of
the South unfavorable to white labor that
might be profitably occupied with Chinese
and olhrr colored races, but they would
not probably be confined to tlieee sections,
and even In those places, when they become
numerous, their votiug |>ower, compelled by
the Fifteenth Amendment, would make
them undesirable associates. If they come,
however, as everybody expects, they should

may, for she will get sick of colored voters

United States Court.
. The Court met at 10 o'clock, A. M.. on <
Monday, His Honor Judge Mbtax presiding
on the bench, looking refreshed and rejuvenated
by liis week's excursion over the
innnnUinfl. TliorA wri n full AttPmlanAA nf
Grand and Petit Jurors and other parties
concerned. The Court was organized, and
the Judge proceeded to give a comprehensive
and able charge to the Grand Jury
upon their duties; taking occasion to point
out the patriotic duty they owed to the
Government and to society in doing their
part in enforcing the laws. The easi-nlial
importance of sustaining the Revenue Laws
was especially dwelt upon, and the obligation
of every citizen to support the Govern
mcnt in its just Authority. The Judge gave,
io a very strong and pointed rmtnner, the
argument against all rep> dialion of the
public debt, and maintained that the honor
and interest of the Nation were alike In
volved in paying all ita obligations. The
debt was contracted "to save the life of the
Nation." The remarks of Ilie Honor on
thia head, seemed to grow ont ot the suject
of his charge, as to numerous Pills of Indictmeuta
given out for violations of the
Revenue Laws, lie said, however, that it
was on indisputable fact, that the laws of
the United States were aa readily and in*
partially executed in South Carolina as in
Massachusetts or Ohio, and the juries here
did their duty as woll aa tire juries in any
other State; that he had so slated to
Chief Justiee Cua?b. We were pleased at
hearing litis nmaik from the Judge as a
just compliment to the honor of South Carolina
citizens, and gratified to know that
ihe Chief Justice Was furnished with testimony
from a high souree to rebuke these
slanderers wherever he might meet them.
Two Fires in Greenville on the same
Might.
On lust Friday night, about eleven o'clock
an alnim of fire was raised, which was
caused by the burning of a carpenter's shop
located on the back street enst of Main and
north of Churcli-street, on the lot oconpied
by tlio store of Messrs. T. A. A i.i.em A Co,
The firemen ond citizens were out with
proptr.ess, although the earnest and energetic
endeavors of all were insufTleietil to
prevent the flames from consuming the en?
tiro building, excepting such portions of it
as were polled down. One or two stnblre
or sheds situated immediately conliguioti*
to the burning building were also destroyed.
The shop was own by At.kxsni>k* Mclikx,
Esq., and the loss was inconsiderable.
Scarcely had the firemen reached their
homes, after the etay ingof the conflagration,
which wae between two and three o'eloek
on Saturday morning, when another alarm
of fire wae raiaad, accompanied by the
osnai ringing of the bella. This time, the
> fire waa on the sooth title of the River, atao
on the premieee of AugXANnKg McLiac, K?q
A stack of straw, situated between and
found to be on fire, and fiom its nature,
eoold not be put out; but the engines by
their efforts sneceeded in sating both stables.
Had the flumes not be* n curbed in
both eases, considerable Iocs woo!d hare
ensued.
The TsTmetto and Neptune Fire Companies
were both rery prompt and early at the
stage of action, and rendered their nana)
efficient serriccs. *
