,,b., ,acent accounts from California of the
treatment of the Chinese who have emigrated to
that State, afford one of the most striking com
meutaries on the relations of two races IN the
same county, morally unequal, and yet political
" equal, which history contains. They cannot
live in peace--or at least they will not. The
doctrine of universal equality will not answer
The war on the Chinese is like the war on thu
Indians--it aims at expulsion, and will probably
result in that, or in determination.
SO long as the number of the Chinese was
small, and could be usefully employed in menIai
service and thus answer, instead of slavery The
Chinese emigration was regarded as an advail-
tage But in Califo rnia, the American iaoorer
evinces at once the same pride OF CASTE when
brought into the competition or company of an
inferior, that has always attended the possession
of superior traits Of character.
The Chinese are said to be an industrious,
patient sober and frugal people, but not coura-
geous, intelligent or ambitious. They will
therefore be driven back into the towns, to live
as servants, or into the less productive and more
remote regions of the mining region. 1t is
doubtful whether they will ever be permitted to
vote, or that they ever will desire to do so. II
is quite certain that they must remain in po-
siton which, according to the prevailing ideas
of human rights, must be considered anomalous,
although in strict accordance with all the exam
Piles of history, and all the teachings of sound
philosophy.
Will it not become necessary to establish a
mission Of aboitionists in California, to elevate
the Chinese, or will philanthropy content itself
on this side of the mountains with sympathy
for the negro?
1t appears to be now established by the actual
experience of California that there is an unwil
liDgness of the great mass of people who go
there and are successful, 10 remain. The rich
man cannot avail himself of the labor of others
there, and hence returns with his wealth to this
side of the mountains, where he can. Hence
California, whilst increased by prodigious emf
grafton of people from this side seeking for
tune, is drained by prodigious current of peo-
pie returning here to spend it. Now this could
not occur if slavery existed there And We
predict that the more intelligent of her people
will soon see the advantages of some system
that will keep her wealthy citizens there, to FORM
improve and refine society--and avert this con
tinuous and enormous drain. And in consid-
erng the remedy, ii will probably be found that
African slavery is the best.
Would it not be curious that the North, after
securing this territory by an opposition to
slavery, should yet be compelled, by actual ex-
pertinent, to reverse her own judgment against
il by the votes of her own people?
