1t appears not improbable, that that republic will,
before long, have large number of citizens voting
for President, and appealing TO the Constitution,
while they worship Confucius, and eat rice with
chopsticlxs. The California Courier has the follow
ing statement on the sublect:-"San Francisco pro-
badly has population of one thousand Chinese, and
this population is the most orderly, industrious and
prudent, of any class in our city. You never catch
any of the long queues in any of the haunts of dis
sipaton, and, per consequence, none of them on the
police books. They generally pretty good me-
chancs-some of them keep restaurants, and few
trade in nick-nacks and curiosities. When lumber
was scarce in the market, large quantity was
brought from Chinese ports, ready framed and
matched for ten-fooers,"
The Chinese are, in some respects, the Yankees
of the East. Their redundant population overfows
into all the neghboring countries-and wherever
they go, they sure to get the cream of all the
trade Large communities of them are found scat
tered throughout all Further india and the islands of
the Eastern Archipelago, where they uniformly show
themselves superior to the people among whom they
settle, in civilization, industry thrift, orderly behav-
ior, and all the qualities of good citizens. There is
doubt that the attractions of commerce and gain,
will draw still greater numbers of them into the Pa
c6c territories of the United States where they will
enjoy what they have yet possessed of their
own country, perfect political equality with the
people among whom they reside. With this impor-
tant advantage, the excellent natural genius of the
Chinese may undergo developments leading to the
most important results. When many thousands of
Chinese understand our language and the spirit of
our social and political institutions, it will be impos-
slble to prevent flood of knowledge from penerat-
ing INTO the heart of the Chinese empire, and work.
ing out consequences, the importance of which can
hardly be over-estimated.-B Courier.
u The most important result of this emigration,
in our estimation, will be the introduction into our
country of free population of industrious habits,
lifted for and accustomed to a tropical climate
Let them get foohold in the warmer regions of Amer
lea, with free institutions, our civilization, and
hnally, we trust, not our, but pure christianity let
them become amalgamated with the races already
domlciliated there, but winch lack some of the
better qualities of the Chinese and the results will be
OF vast Importance to the whole world 1t will do for
the tropical regions of the country, what the Anglo
Saxon race is doing for the temperate, and beside, will
take away any pretence of the necessity of having slave
labor for those regions.

RAMPANT. The Richmond Enquirer (Dem-

ola Pennsylvania Judge in slave case at Harris
burg. 1t talks in this way:
Since the people of the Northern borders aciU not

the people of the neghboring Southern States should
make them know and respect the laW of The sword,
The RITE, the tar barrel and the grapevine. A fierce
border war is evidently to be the only protection and
hope of the Southern States.

One out of eight Wings from Ohio;
And all the Wings from the Slave States, with the

iniquitous enough
A majority of all the Wings who voted gave their
support TO the bill But this is not ALL President

It could not have succeeded. And Daniel Webster

BY J. G. WHITTIER
THANKS for thy gift
OF ocean flowers
Born where the golden drift
vi the slant sunshine falls
Down the green, tremulous walls
VI water, to the cool, still coral bowers
Where under rainbows of perpetual showers,
Gods gardens Of the Deep
Hispatient angels keep
Gladdenlng the dim, strange solitude
with ialrest forms, and thus
Forever teaching us
The lesson which the many-colored skies,
Ihe bowers and leaves, and painted butterflies,
ne deers branch'd anters, the gay bird that filings
The brightness of the human countenance,
It's play OF smiles, the magic of glance,
Forever repeat,
In varied tones and sweet,
Inat beauty, in and of itself, is good.
Oh, kind and generous friend DER whom
The sunset hues of Time are cast,
Painting, upon the overpast
And scattered clouds of MONDAY sorrow,
The promise of a fairer morrow,
An earnest of the better life to come:
The binding of the spirit broken,
The warning to the erring spoken,
The comfort of the sad,
The eye to see, the bond to Gull
From common things the beautiful,
The absent heart made glad
by simple gift or graceful token
Of love it needs as daily food
All own one source, and all are good,
Hence, tracking sunny cove and reach,
where spent waves glimmer up the beach,
And toss their gifts Of weed and shell
From foamy curve and combing SWELL
NO unbenttlDg task was thine,
To weave these flowers SO soft and fair,
In unison with His design
Who loveth beauty everywhere,
And makes in every zone and cline,
In ocean and in upper air.
"All things beautiful in their time y
For not alone in tones Of awe and power
He speaks to man;
The cloudy horror of the thunder-shower
His rainbows span;
And where the caravan
Winds DER the DESERT leaving as in air
The crane flock leaves trace of passage there,
He gives the weary eye
The palm leaf shadow for the hot noon hours
And on its branches dry
Calls out the acaca's flowers;
And where the dark shaft pierces down
Beneath the mountain roots,
Seen by the miners lamp alone,
The star-like crystal shoots;
So, where the winds and waves below
The coral-branched gardens grow,
Ills climbing weeds and moses show
Like foliage on each stony Dough,
Oi varied hues more strangely CAV
Than forest leaves in autumn's day:
Thus everinore,
On sky and wave and shore
An all-pervading beauty seems to say
liod's Love and Power are one; and they
Who like the thunder of a sultry day
Smite to restore,
And they who like the gentle wind upft
The petals of the dew-wet flowers, and drift
Their perfume on the air,
Alike may serve Him, each with their own gift,
Making their lives PRAYER.

An Embrvo American sculptor.

John Neal, in letter to'the Portland Advertiser
furnishes the following sketch of young artist Of
that city
We have in this same Portland, at this very mo-
ment, young man, who, ifhe lives but few short
years, will bear offthe highest prize in sculpture from
every school in Europe-where originality, tender
ness, truth, variety and expression are vaued-a
young man, who has been away from country store
but twevemonth or So without help or experience,
Icompanlonship encouragement (among his breth-
ren) and yet, has already furnished life medallion
OF the Savior that mortal can look at, but with
feeling oftenderness and awe; a number of capital
busts, and among them two or three, which for SIM
plicty truthfuness, BREADTH life-lke individuality
and elevation, were never surpassed. Let me add
that he is now occupied with female figure from
the Hebrew Scriptures-the subject unacknowledged
for if it does not tell its story when Finished he
will instantly break it in pieces which, II COM
pleted, so that The whole may correspond with the
wonderful countenance, the touching attitude, and
the beautiful anatomy of the parts already finished,
will give him reputation through the world
Why, it is but week OF ten days ago that he un-
dertook, and accomplished in two hours, what has
been great problem with scup for two thousand
years-the representation Of that moment OF sudden
death, when life has just left the body, and the mus
cles have not vet wholly lost their natural expression.
He had been reading newspaper description of
Charlotte Corday-and wearylng with MS laOor up
on bust which he had just begun to shape into
life like porrait--he took up handful of temper
ed clay, and within the little time have mentioned,
moulded head of astonishing beauty, which he
gave to the writer, without hint ofwhat he intend
ed it for-and asked him to say what was the ex-
preston he saw there. ''Not death, was the reply,
IF you meant it for dead woman, which gather
from the abundant hair floating loose the slab,
you have made strange mistake"
'sNor is it fe--though the eyeds are still culver
ing, and the beautiful mouth is not fixed for ,ev
en- yet-and the serene, ample forehead has upon it
only the shadow of death. | see here look ofsud-
den pain, with soemnity and sweetness, and great
exaltation. 1t seems to me the moment of separa-
ton between soui and body, under circumstances of
trial and terror-what is it What have you been
hoping to do To tell you the truth, have seen it
before, and it was shown to me by another, not an
hour ago, when your back was turned, as tho por-
trait of drowned woman--a shocking failure said
then, and say now, if that was your intention. >
