by The government that Gen. Scott is to

The Mandarin and the English Lady.

The degraded position of females in China is
we'll known. Morning astonishes the China
men who visit our merchants at Hong Kong so
much as the Difference which is paid by our
countryman to their ladies', and the position
which the latter are permitted to hold in society.
The very servants express their disgust at seeing
our ladies' permitted to sit at table with their
lords and wonder how men can so far forget
their dignity. A young English merchant re-
Gently took his youthful wife with him to Hong
Kong, where the couple were visited by wealthy
mand4rin. The latter regarded the lady atten-
lively, aud seemed to dwell with delight on her
movements. When she at length left the apart
ment, he said to the husband, in his imperfect
English, WA you give for that wiley wife
yoursp"
ooh" replied the husband, laughing at the
singular error of the visitor, 1.-TWO thousand
dollars"
This our merchant thought would appear to
the Chinese rather a high figure, but he was
mistaken.
"Well, said the mandarin, taking out his
DOCh Will dill all u UuollSSS1 SuppOSc you
give her to me, give you five thousand dol
lars"
1t is difficult to say whether the young mer-
chant vas more amazed or amused, but the
grave afr of the Chinaman convinced him that
he was in earnest, and he was compelled, there
fore, to refuse the offer with as much p~lacidity
rs he could assume. The mandarin was, how-
ever, pressing, and went as high as seven thous-
and dollars. The merchant, who had no previ-
Gus potion of the value of the commodity which
he had taken out with him, was compelled at
length to declare that Englishmen never sold
their wives after they once came into their pos
session, an assertion which the Chinaman was
slow to believe. The merchant afterwards had
a hearty laugh with his young wife, when he
told her that he had just discovered her full val
ne, as the mandarin had offered him seven thou,
sand dollars for her,

Progressive Democracy,

The real Simon Pure Democracy, the only genuine
article, the unpublished diamond fresh from the only
mine that can be depended upon as giving us the real
thing-Tammony Hal,--has broken upon the dazzled
world in u newer and brighter light. AT a meeting in
Tammany, on Friday evening last, they passed a res
olution, which coumence as follows:
Rcso,vcd, That the distinction established in the
present Constitution between people Of color, allowing
such of them as have property, to vote, and excluding
others, is an anti-republican distinction, as the possess
ion of property is not the test Of Intelligence or of
worth.
Good. What more can be asked or expected from
a party whose distinctive doctrine as announced by
one Of its great leaders is that true Democracy, is "the
supremacy of man over his accidents"
Who could help being cheered, when reading the
first clause in the resolution, with the hope that the
Democracy had at length discovered that the slighteE
distinction of color of skin, had as little to do with the
rights of man, as the contents Ofbis pocket? But read
further;
Sand that We are therefore driven to the alterna-
tive of excluding I'LL, or allowing all these people to
vote--,O @c most decidcdyc Of The opinion tho! all should
be erduded."
This is Too good. Because injustice is done to
portion Of a certain class, tho wrong is to be corrected
BY being unjust to the whole! But the reason given
is a no less choice specimen of the principles Of the
Increment party,'-the young Democracie'
W cannot regard them as belonging to the race
to which the government Of this country is committed
that there is a natural a%ntipathy between the races,
founded on strong natural and physical differences,
~forbidding social or political amalgamation, that the
attempt to unite the races, by constitutional or legal
provision, not in accordance with public sentiment in
this respect, would again fail in elevating the colored
race to a practical participation in the Government Of
this State, and that it is most unwisc to adopt any con-
stitutionul provision which will not in fact be sustained
by public sentiment, or to attempt to make such senti-
ment conform to a constitutional provision"
1t has been well said that il the 4 atural ~antipathy'
is mutual, it is as good a reason for d~epriving the
whites as the blacks, of a share in the Government
The whole meaning of the resolution, reduced to plain:
language, is simply t is that the strongest shall gov
ern, and the only standard Of human rights is to be
found in the spirit of caste, and in the power of the
strong, to .yrannize over the weak. This is the De-
mocracy pr excellence of this country. S. Standard

single or solitary ones, but are, like their persons, Of Il

Wy, on finding myself at sea with six and twenty line
of battle ships, manned with nearly thirty thousand
men, and four months provision on board, knowing, as
| did, that for the protection of the coasts Of my own
country, of our ports, of our mercantile shipping in the
Baltic, the North sea, and the channel, we had but sew
en- line-of-battle ships in a state of preparation, and
those not fully manned. | confess that, confident as |
felt Of the superior skill and activity of my country
men, | almost trembled for their preservation of the
ancient sovereignty of the seas"
On the eastern shores of the Black sea, between her
waves and the Caspian, lies Circassia, a wild and
mountainous region, filled with gloomy ravines and in
accessible crags, where small bands of r~esolute men
might bid defiance to an host. Among these defles,
for many ages, there has lived a brave and warlike
race, famed for martial proves and personal beauty,
and for the spirit o~findomitable independence. Russia
having obtained undisputed possession of the western
and northern shore of the Euxine, cast her eyes across
the eastern shore, and resolved to subdue the warlike
race, which for ages had ranged those wids in uncon.
quered freedom. The Euxine feet was all ready to
transport the armies of the Emperor to the shores of
Circassia. The plan was, however, found more diff
cult of achievement than was at first supposed. These
hardy men and women fought fercely for their liber-
ties. From the year 1928 to 1882, these distant soil,
tudes resounded with the din of the most determined
and murderous war. The explosion ofRussian artille-
ry rivaled the thunders Of heaven, as they reverberated
around the SUBMITS of the Caucasians. Army after
army were cut up in these Thermopylae Businesses,
but still new thousands were poured into the doomed
country, till, at last, numbers and discipline ~triumphed,
and the brave Circassians were vanquished, and their
country became, by the right of might, a province of
T~apacious Russia. And now the Russian flag floats
from almost every promontory % the Black sea, and
her %tortresses trown in the strongest holds of the eau
casian mountains.
