CllAS, . JONES, Editor and PropHon rSXTMKKB AT TBI POfT-OfflOi ATCHABLOTT FRIDAY, MARCH 24, 18S2. THEY DON'T UKEIT. Certain portions of the Northern peo ple seem to be considerably exercised over the passage by .the, Senate of the bill restricting Chinesaimmigration to this country, and protests and petitions. are being gotten up to influence me House of Representatives, where the bill is now under discsasion, to defeat it. It will be noticed that the opposition to this measure comes from the section of country where there are but few Chinese, and which demands cheap la bor while it also demands protection in the shape of high tariff duties for its in dustries. Protect capital but maice labor cheap is their motto. To further their opposition they have brought the religious elements to bear, and conse quently we have petitions from Bap tists, Presbyterians and Methodists petitioning Congress against the pas sage of the bilL They view the ques tion frdm a religious standpoint, claim ing that we need the labor of these peo Dle. that we oaeht to welcome rather than repel them, and that it is incon sistent to send missionaries abroad to Christianize them, when they might be Christianized so much more readily and at much less cost when under our own Christianizinff influences. This is a very natural view for men to take who live and move more in theories of their own construction than in living realities. Talk about needing their labor when thousands upon thou sands of Ameycan laborerslook in vain for work, and when thousands upon thousands of brawny-armed men have been seen wandering over the country a3 tramps in the fruitless search for em ploy men t. It is not so long since that it was estimated that at least three hun dred thousand of these were roaming over the land workless, houseless, food' less and razeed. Their labor is not needed. As for Christianizing them by . importation we doubt if one in a thou sand embraces Christianity after reach mg these shores. In the cities ana towns they herd like cattle, have their gambling houses, their houses of prds titucion, their opium dens, and there in utter contempt and defiance of loca! laws practice all the vices they have either inherited or acquired. The A Christian surroundings have as little1 influence over them as a fall of sno.w would have in cooling the infernal r gions. Right in the midst of the Christ ian spires of San Francisco they have their Josh bouses erected and bow be fore their wooden gods as they did in their own land, and have about as small an opinion of the Christian God as they have of the Christian's civilization which they hold in the greatest con tempt. No. If the Chinaman be not christian ized until by coming in contact with our people in the avocations of daily life, his day of spiritual regeneration is afar off. But, notwithstanding the opin ions of these petitioners, some of whom no doubt are honest and in earnest, this question must be viewed from a practical and not a sentimental stand point. However in opposition to our former policy the measure of restric tion may seem, it has become one of import and resolves itself into one of simple inquiry whether the Pacific States .are to remain in possession of our own people, or eventually to fall into the hands of Chinese invaders, not invaders who .come with arms in their hands, who may be driven off, but like swarms of vermin that settle upon the land and cannot be driven off. They come from a country with a population eight times as great as ours to draw from, where to keep numbers from increasing they murder babes, mercilessly throw them into the rivers to be eaten by the fish, or by hogs that devour them if washed ashore. Thou sands of these outcast innocents are annually saved from death by religious societies which have established houses there for the care of the children res cued from the rivers by the good men who have devoted themselves to that humane mission. As a people they have nothing in common with our people. In instinct, training, modes of thought and inclination, they are entirely dif ferent, and never try and never desire to become a part of the great American family. They are Chinese living and want their bones when dead, shipped back to be buried in Chinse soil, that their souls may enter the Chinese heaven. They are not immigrants in the true sense of the word, but the most abject of slaves, whose presence con tributes in no way to the prosperity or development of the section which they swarm in upon. The people of the Pa cific coast know them by experience, and know what they are asking when they pray Congress to put a limit to their coming, and Congress has heard their prayer. It is the voice of self preservation, which is one of nature's first laws. . The Northern papers are publishing a highly sensational story, telegraphed from Wilmington in this State 21st in stant, telling how Gracie Mills, who lived just across the South Carolina line, called out from her home and killed Jane Jackson; who had supplant- ed her in the affections of a young man named Robert Sibley. The girls had a , tough fight before Jane bit the dust. . We remember reading not long ago something of this kind which occurred between two negro women in some of the Western counties, and this is prob ably what the dispatch is based upon.

Totals...... 14,440 Here is a showing of what Southern brain work has been doing within the past decade, and an index also of what may be expected in the futnre when Southern boys have been trained to mechanical pursuits. This increase of over six times the number of patents taken out in the previous ten years shows that our people have struck out on a new line, and that they have a genius for invention which had been but seldom called into play until the changed condition of their affairs, and the changed system of labor rendered labor-saving machinery a necessity.. Under the old rule of things there was but little necessity and consequently little demand for improved machinery, planters as a general thing having an abundance of labor, plenty of time to accomplish all they desired to accom plish, and were stisfied with the r&sults of their way of doing business. TBut the change of affairs made a change of modes necessary and hence the birth, if we may so speak, of the spirit of inven tion. The time was when the South looked abroad for everything in the way of machinery, but that day is passing, for her own brains are at work in the construction of such as she needs, and with her brain and the capital she will I before long control she will be inde pendent in this respect.

After the Presentation of Son dry Bills and Resolutions the Senate Considers the Life-Saving Service Bill, and En ters upon the Discussion of the Tariff Commission Bill) while the House "Wrestle with Jthe Chinese Bill which Finally Passes. Washington, March 23.-Windom from the committee on foreign rela tions, reported adversely Senate bills in relation to the Venezuelan award. .In definitely postponed. George, from the committee on agri culture, reported as a substitute for several measures, a bill for that com mittee on the original bill to constitute the department of agriculture an execu tive department, and to enlarge its pow ers and duties. Calendar. A bill was introduced by Johnston appropriating $100,000 for the erection of a public building at Lynchburg, Va. On motion of Kellogg, the Secretary of War was directed to transmit infor mation of the amount of supplies, tents and transportation turnisned by nis de partment to the several States for the relief of the sufferers by the Mississippi overflow and what further supplies will be necessary, with an estimate of their cost. Morgan called up his pending con current resolution declaring for a re ciprocity treaty with Mexico. Sherman said there was opposition on both sides of tne cb amber to all re ciprocity treaties, and moved a refer nee of the resolution to the committee n foreign relations. Agreed to. The life saving service bill was again taken up and a discussion upon the amendments proposing new stations occupied the remainder of the time al- loted to the calendar. The additional stations provided for include three on the South Carolina coast, near George town, Charleston and Beaufort, insert ed on motion of Hampton, and one near Tybee Island: one near Bruns wick and one near Cumberland Island, on tne Georgia coast, inserted on mo tion of Brown. The Florida Senators spoke in advocacy of the new stations on the Island and Gulf coasts of Flori da. The bill was not acted upon, and finally, at 2:10, the tariff commission bill came up, and Saulsbnry opened the debate in opposition to it, followed by ixananu, rrye, Aioncn, vvuiiams and Beck. ine maian appropriation bill was reported from the appropriation com mittee-with amendments, making its total amonnt $1,807,300. Miller, of New York, was awarded the floor for to-morrow on the tariff. and at 3:35, the Senate went into execu tive session, and wnen tne doors were re-opened adjourned until to-morrow. House. The House met at 10 o'clock in continuance of Wednesday's session and the debate on the Chinese bill was resumed. The Chinese debate lasted till the close of Wednesday's session. After the formal opening of to-day's session, the morning hour having been dis pensed with, the House at 2.25 resumed the consideration of the Chinese bill. At 3 o'clock the previous question was ordered on the bill and the amend ments which were offered by various members. Page then took the floor for tie closing hour of the debate but yielded ten minutes to Robinson, of Mass., and Curtis, of Penn. Curtis said that now congress had come face to face with the square, unadulterated question of labor. 100,000 Chinese la borers in California took place of 100, 000 American laborers and the naked question was presented to congress whether that state of facts should con tinue. When the Pacific coast came and asked that American labor should be preferred the whole American peo ple were touched by the appeal and it was the right and duty of congress to protect the American citizens agaist the introduction of heathen Chinese labor. This American government should set up for itself and say to all the world we shall say who shall come and who shall not come who shall become citi zens and who shall not He then proceeded in elegant lan guage to give a brief history of the con flict of the European and Indian 'races and he was frequently interrupted with applause. He had to speak of another race, the negro race, stolen from his home in Af rica. Then the people of Massachusetts .had forgotten the" substance of .the de claration of independence. The people were familiar with the colored race. They knew ft well. The negro as a dis turbing element in politics; was gone. When the gentleman from-Mississippi (HooKer) spoke tneotner day how beau tiful and political and classical were his remarks. There wasmute eloquence in the wave of his armless sleeve which brought to him (Curtin) the consolation that America was united and would re main united now and forever. He pro tested against compelling the people of California to undergo the1 evils of Chi nese immigration. Put.,100,000 Chinese down in Massachusetts to displace the enlightened workmen of that great State and violence of Puritan denunci ation would dwarf the utterances of the sand lots of California. In.conclusioh he stated that he would vote for the bill as it stood because it was thought by representatives of the Pacific coast that it would remedy the evil of which they were complaining. " After bnef speeches by Cameron, of Illinois, in support of the bilL Page, of California, took , the floor to close the debate. : ; . , The House then proceeded to vote on the amendments, that of Kasson re ducing the period of suspension of im migration to 10 years.
