position as it did in the Senate.
There may be a difference of opinion
in the Atlantic States as to the proprie
ty of passing such Exclusive legislation
as this, but in the Western and Pacific
States there is very little, and they,
especially the Pacific, are the most in
terested: we mieht. perhaps, without
impropriety, say the only ones interest
ed. The only real opposition the bill
met in the Senate was from New En
gland Senators, who did not discuss the
question on its merits but "viewed the
act as a violation of the existing treaty
with China. They overlooked the fact
if they cared to see it, that the importa
tion of Chinese laborers into this coun
try was not immigration in the proper
sense of the word, but a system of
coolie traffic differing but very little
essentially from absolute slavery. The
imported hordes do not come as other
aliens do, bringing their resources and
their wives and children with them to
become a part and parcel of our popu
lation, and make their future homes
here, to work, fell forests, make farms,
build cities and assume all the duties
and responsibilities of citizenship. This
the Chinese don't do. They bring noth
ing with them but their vices, the
scanty clothes they wear and rice
enough to last them until they can send
back to China for more. They don't
become land owners, nor land tillers
the extent of their agricultural ambi
tion being confined to the cultivation
of i a few rods of garden near some
town through which they peddle the
vegetables they raise. As a class their
inclinations and aspirations are meni
al ; they have no ambition to excel in
the honorable avocations, nor to elevate
their condition above that of mere
drudges or menials.
In the camp they herd, in the cities
' they congregate in hordes in forbidding
quarters woich become the festering
places of vices in which they stand pre
eminent. They have no respect for the
laws if they can evade them or violate
them undetected, and as for the courts
of justice or the sanctity of an oath
they have no regard whatever. They
have nothing in common with our peo
ple, and a thousand years of inter
course could not assimilate them.
Practically speaking they are of no
benefit to the country where they settle,
engaging in nothing that developes re
sources or produces wealth, or adds to
the prosperity of the land they live up
on. Their great hope is after paying
the transportation they obligate them
selves to pay the company which ships
them and holds a mortgage upon their
earnings until paid, to save something
and return to China to enjoy it, and if
they should die among the outside bar
barians, to have their bodies shipped
back to China, that their souls may rest
in peace.
Their religion, habits, training and
tastes preclude the idea of their ever
becoming a part of the permanent popu?
lation of this country, which they never
intend to be and which never was in
tended should be.
We are speaking now of the class of
Chinese which infest the Pacific States
and against whose importation this act
has b en passed. Of course there is a
.bettter class of Chinese, but few of
these have made their way to these
shore, so few as to be not worth count
ing. It is well that this Mongolian tide is
to be stopped, for if -continued it would
at no distant day result in a clash be
tween the races on the Pacific that
would be terrible in its results. It is
better in this case that the law do what
the mob and force would inevitably do
before long. What exception the
Chinese government can take to it we
can't see, for there is no earthly reason
why this country should become the
refuge for- hordes of paupers, the very
worst elements of Chinese society, who
are picked up and shipped by the thou
sand by companies who engage in the
business for the money they make out
of it. That government may be glad
to get rid of such surplus population,
but should not find fault if this govern
ment objects to their coming.

the finding of the court martial.

Batou Sayba, La, March 10.-t-Point
Coupee crevasse has not affected the
stand of water here yet, although there
is a fearful mass of water escaping
from the river at that point. The levee
is still giving way rapidly as it is all of
green earth and crumbles as fast as
the water pushes against it. The gap is
now about 1,000 feet wide, and the wa
ter, as it goes through, is about ten feet
deep, but is rapidly digging deeper and
Lspreading far and wide over the coun
try ana will overnow a pare or mis
parish and all of West Baton Rouge
and portions of Assumption, Iberville,
St. Mary, Iberia and Terrebonne, the
richest sugar district in Louisiana. The
False River and Gross Tete country
will be soon inundated and the loss of
property and suffering of the people
will be terrible. Maj. II. C. Brown,
State engineer, says it is useless to at
tempt to stop the crevasse. The people
of Bayou sayra are maRing a nooie ngnt
against the flood. All the stores are
closed and every man is at work upon
the levees which protect the place,
while the draining machine is working
against fearful pressure.
Passengers from below report a break
in the levee eleven and a half miles
above Friars Point, Miss. The break
occurred yesterday, and although Friars
Point will be overflowed from the break
the town will not Buffer by the river
rushing through as at Austin.
New Orleans, March 10- The New
Orleans, Chicago and St. Louis Railroad
is again submerged and is impassable
in the neighborhood of Water Valley,
Miss. The overflow has assumed alarm
ing proportions, inundating all that'
section of the country. The trains are
unable to proceed further north than
Coffeeville station, this side of Water
Valley. Capt. Richard Sinott, just ar
rived from Red River, reports 250 fami
lies below Alexandria living on rafts
and in a deplorable condition. He
thinks the State should send them ra
tions at once, or that some private pro
vision should be made to relieve their
great misery.
The levees along the New Orleans
city front are inspected daily, well
guarded, weak points strengthened and.
every precaution taken to prevent a
crevasse. The same precautions are
taken all along the line from Baton

American citizens.' The report states
;thatf the resolutions of thS House call

was transmitted to Minister Morgan,
whom, it was alleged by Shields, took
no steps to: procure their release, and
the f ollowuig telegram was received in
reply : "The statement of Shields with
regard-to me is false. Hearing they
were arrested I brought the matter to
the notice of .the Secretary of State for
foreign affairs. They were released and
were re-arrested a few days since for
drunkenness and disorderly conduct.

Favoring a Redaction of $70,000000.
Washington, D. C- March 10. It is
understood that the sub-committee of
the House committee on ways - and
means have virtually agreed upon a
bill reducing the internal revenue tax
on whiskey and tobacco, and removing
the tax entirely from a number of arti
cles embraced in schedule "A" - ,
The total amount, of the reduction in
internal revenue to be effected by the
bill is estimated at about seventy mil
lion dollars.
The bill will probably be reported to
tne iuii committee next Tuesday.
Secretary Folger contemplates issu
ing Friday next a call for Donds, con

resolution requesting theJf resident to
bring to the attention of the govern
ment of Nicaraugua the necessity of
arranging bv a convention for the final
settlement of all unadjusted claims ex
isting between the government ot the
United States and the government of
Nicaraueua and claims of citizens of
the United States against the govern
ment of Nicaraugua,
The resolAtion was adopted after an
explanation by Morgan in reply to Mor
rill that the amount of claims in favor
of citizens of the United States, ranged
from $3,000,000 to' $6,000,000, and that
the resolution did not cover counter
claims of the citizens of Nicaraugua.
Vest offered a resolution directing
the Secretary of- war to use steamers
and other vessels belonging to or now
employed by the government on the
Mississippi and its tributaries in the
transportation and distribution of ra
tions and supplies furnished to sufferers
by the recent overflow, and providing
for the necessary expense thereof. Vest
explained that there was difficulty in
getting supplies to points in the interior
remote from Memphis and pointjs on
the Mississippi, and that small boats
were required for this purpose. Hun
dreds of sufferers were on the point of
starvation and the people of the West
and Southwest were generally respond
ing for their relief. The object now
was to render certain boats under con
trol of the government engineer corps
available.
Cockrell had read a telegram from
the Merchants' Exchange of St Louis,
urging that the assistance of the gov
ernment be continued in view of the
discouraging reports received from the

A Georgia Railroad Decision. .
Atlanta, March 10. The Attorney
General's decision as to the validity of
the Western & Atlantic lease bonds is
based on the fact that the Railroad
companies signing had no right to en
dorse under their charters except by
the unanimous consent of the stock
holders. President Wadley, of the Cen
tral Railroad holds that his road is not
bound by the signatures, and protests
have been made by stockholders of each
road. The shares in the lease are held
by various parties and the total amount
of value one million dollars. About
$600,000 of income bonds based on earn
ings of tne lease are yet outstanding
The lessees will contest the Attorney
General's decision in the courts.
