CHINESE MoRALITY.--It is my deliberate
opinion that the Chinese are morally the most
debased people Oh the face Of the earth
Forms of vice which in other countries are
barely named, are in China so common that
they excite no comment among the natives.
They constitute the surface level, and below
them there are deeps of depravity SO shock
ing and horrible that their character cannot
even be hinted. There are some dark shad-
ows in human nature which we naturally
shrink from penetrating, and made no at
tempt to collect information of this kind !;
but there was enough in the things which I
could not avoid seeing and hearing-which
are brought almost daily 70 the notice of ev-
eery foreign resident-to inspire me with a
powerful aversion to the Chinese race. Their
touch is pollution, and harsh as the opinion
may seem, Justice to our own race demands
that they should not be allowed to settle on
our soil. Science may have lost something,
but mankind has gained by the exclusive
policy which has governed China during past
centuries. - Bayard Taylor.

Temperance Meeting in Portageville.

Pursuant to a call of Many Citizens the
people of Portage and vicinity convened at
Knaggs Hall on the evening of the 18th Nov,
to consider the proprety of carrying into
effect the law entitled "an act to provide
against the evils resulting from the sale of
Intoxicating liquors" passed May lst, 1854.
The meeting was organized by appointing
CoLL1srER HAsKlNs, Esq, chairman, and DR..
s. H. BARNES. secretary. After the reading
of the aforesaid law, committee on resou-
tions was appointed, who reported the fol-
lowing, which, after discussion, were unan-
imously adopted;
Whereas we regard intemperance as enc
of the greatest evils of this age, lis sad eff
iects being visible in every community in
our state, and especially in this town and
whereas we have ceased to hope that any
meaus short of legislation will be etflcacious
in removing this evil, therefore Res0lUed.
lst. That we regard legislation on this
subject as constitutional and just that we
endorse the principles of prohibition that
we regard our law (although defective) as
capable of doing much to remove the evil,
and that we are determined TO see it enforc-
ed in this place.
"a. That a committee of seven be appoint
ed. whose duty it shall be, after giving one
DAYS notice, to enforce the law and report
persons violating it to the proper officers.
80. That the proceedings of this meeting
be published in the county papers.
The following gentlemen were chosen as
a committee, viz: Henry Haskins, John Nc
Crory, A. Rogers, S. II. Barnes, G. Haskins.
James McFadden and J. II. Dewitt.
The greatest harmony prevailed during the
delibefations, and on motion the meeting
adjourned without day.

The Manufacture of Watches.

The number OF watches manufactured an
nualIy in Neufchat tel, may be calculated to
be from 100000 to 10000, of which about
$4,000 are in gold and the rest in silver.
Now, supposing the first on an average to
be- worth $50, and the others FL, it would
represent capital of 81 100000, without
taking into consideration the sale Of clocks
and instruments for watch making, the
amount of which is very large.
The United States consume the largest
quantity of these watches. With the ex-
ception of gold and silver for the nanufac-
ture of the watch cases, the other materials
for the construction of the works or mech
anism of the Neufchatel watches are of lit
tie value, consisting merely Of little brass
and steel The steel is imported from Eng
land and is reckoned the best that can be
procured the brass is furnished by France.
With respect to gold and silver, the inhab-
itants of Neufchatel have had for long time
no other resource but to melt current money,
until they received gold from England. (which
the English merchant received from Califor-
MA.
The number of workmen who are employ
ed in watch making is estimated at from

The many things that Adam missed are her
enumerated
Adam neer knew what twas to be a bov
To wheedle pennies from a doatng SIRE,
With which TO barter for some pleasing toy,
Or calm the rising of strong desire
To suck an orange. Nor did he
Fer cast the shuttecock with battledoor,
Nor were his trowsers ever out at knee.
From playing marbles on the kitchen aoor
He never skated Ger the frozen rill,
When winters covering 'er the earth was spread
Nor gided down the slippery hill
With pretty girls upon his trusty sled.
He never swung upon his fathers gate,
Or slept in sunshine on the cellar door;
He neer amused himself with rows Of bricks,
So set, if one fail, all came down;
Nor gazed delighted at the funny tricks,
OF harlequin or travelling circus clown.
BY gradual growth he never reached the age,
When cruel Cupid first invokes his art,
And stamps loves lessons, page by page,
On the glowing tablet of younglngs heart,
He never wandered forth on moonlight night,
With her he loved above all earthly things,
Nor tried to mount old Pndars rocky heights,
Because he fancied love had lent him wings.
He never tripped it DER the ballroom floor,
Where love and music intertwine their charms,
Nor wandered listless by the sandy shore,
Debarred the pleasure of his lady's arms,
For AdamA-so at least tbs said
BY many an ancient and modern sage,
Before moment OF his life had fed,
Was fully thirty gears Of age.

CAMEL CoAL.-We learn from the Pitts
bury papers that the Darlington Camel Coal
Railroad Company, Of Beaver county, are
now in successful operation, sending out
about one hundred and fifty tons per day,
but cannot half supply the demand. A large
amount of it is carried to Allegheny city,
and sold for domestic purposes, for the large
bakeries and for tempering glass. For this
last purpose bituminous Goals do not answer,
and class manufacturers have heretofore been
com0elled TO use wood. The camel coal is
now used in two of the Pittsburg glass hous
IS and at one in Bridgewater, Beaver county,
and it is said to be better and cheaper for
tcmpering than wood, A party of Pittsbur
gers, Messrs. Cheny, Watson & Co., have
purchased site at the junction Of the Dar-
lington road with the Ohio and Pennsylva-
MIA road, and have commenced the erection
IF large manufactory for the purpose OF dis
tilling oil from the camel coal, and entered
into arrangements with that company for
the supply of coal. BY actual experiments
it has been ascerained that it contains for
ty gallons Of oil to the ton, and the expense
Of making it is not more than fourteen cents
pr gallon.
The oil is of a superior quality for light;
when burning emits neither smoke nor smell.
tured successfully in New York and sold al
one dollar per gallon. 1t is also valuable for
machinery, as it neither gums nor does it
congeal until the mercury sinks at Is deg.
below zero. From the cheapness with which
it can be made it is evident that it will soon
BE- produced in quantities, tending greatly
10 reduce the price-a very desirable mattel.
The Darlington Company owns five hundred
and fifty acres of camel coal-have at a
great expense completed their road, and are
now in full connection with the Lakes and
the Ohio rivera central position that must
secure them great advantages. This vein Of
camel coal averages from fourteen to fifteen
feet in thickness, and is overlaid with a vein
of camel coal shale of ten feet in thickness,
which, although not good for fuel, contains

as much oil as the coal. The shale being
composed mainly of oil and earthly matter
and the coal of carbon and oil. 1t is com
puted that at low estimate there is in eve
