The Cooiie Tradc-Whoiesaic IL asst.
ere.
[Erom the China Mail. Noy. l5.l

The atrocities of the Cooiie trade from China
have excited universal indignation, both among
those who know they are generally the result OF
ignorant or brutal management, and others who
understand nothing about the trade, and make
no distinction between hired Coolies who are
treated us slaves, and voluntary emigrants who
pay for their own passage. But all former in
stances have been outdone by Wholesale mas
sacre, of which accounts have Just been received.
The horrible tale may be briefly told The Wa
yerley, an American ship OF 100 TONS recently
sailed from Annoy with Az Coolies for Havana
or Cailao. The Captain died shortly after her
departure the first mate incommand of the yes
sci, brought her to Manila, for the purpose of
procuring another officer 10 take his place. On
anchoring at Cayite it would appear that the
mate had alarmed the captain of the port about
the sanitarycondition of he ship which preven-
ted free intercourse with her; and as, besides
the captain one of the coolies had died, the pre-
JUDGES of the Chinese were offended at the mode
in which the burial was about to be conducted,
or at some other unexplained treatment of the
dead bodies. But the only explanation accorded
to them was the mates lifting revolver and
shooting down one or more OF their number, the
rest he vewithout difficulty be low and made Sc
cure under matches, without any precaution, or
apparnetlp any thought, about ventilation. The
mate thereafter attended the captains funeral,
and spent the day on shore and it was not until
after midnight that the agents of the ship, who
may till then have been unaware how the mat
ter stood, took alarm, and insisted that the mate
should then ascertain the state OF his human
freight; and so, az o'clock next morning, twelve
hours after the matches had been put on, they
were removed TO discover that two hundred and
tfty-one of the coolies were hfeiess corpses-
Forsy-hye more are missing, leaving only one
hundred and forty-six, OF whom several are not
likely TO survive The mate and crew have been
imprisoned by Spanish authorities. and ii is said
that the United States Consul declines to take any
eognizance OF the matter.
Other eoole ships have recently left China ur-
der circumstances that afford ground for appre-
hensien that they may net complete their voy-
age withoa: disaster. In connection with this !
subject, (which has not hitherto been treated as
slave-dcaiingl We NAY mention that the Govern |
or of Macao has imprisoned two Portuguese SUBJ t
jects charged with buying Chinese girls, chiefly
Al Ningpoo, for the purpose of exporting them |
to Havana iii short, with slave-siealing.

months ago started back to Yreka. After get
ding into Cowrrsek valley, between Urnbqua
and Rogue River, We got into seonp4n, With
William Morgan and siI other men with drove
Of hogs. While passing through Cow-ereek
hills, vc were fired upon by . party Of Indians
that lay concealed in the brush and behind The
logs close 10 the road. The man who was dri-
wing the team ahead of me was killed Instantly.
As quickly Al possible unclaimed the cattle.
got into the wagon, and got my reToiyers. ex,
pecting the Indians would rush upon US, and in.
tending to make the fght as dear to them as
possible. But the coxardly devils kept hid in
the brush. pouring the bullets among US like
hail. Nj. Davis was on horseback, right behind
the wagon driving some loose cattle we had
The boys who we're ahead of US With the hogs,
broke into the timber and came round into the
valley mile or 50 shove where we had left it.
Mr.. Davis and myself took the road with Our
cattle, bat several Indians, who had allowed US
to go by in order TO cut US off if we attempted
to run back, commenced firing upon us. So
ran by the cattle, thinking my scalp was Of more
service to me than they were, and halloed to
Mr. Davis to let the cattle go and save himself.
He then left oil but one yoke which he ran out
into the timber ahead Of him.
As soon as We got out Of the timber Mr.. Da.
Wis gave me his rife and started up the valley to
give the people warning Of the danger, and
when about five miles from where he left me,
two Indians fred upon him at once from oppo-
site sides Of the road, both missing him, After
giving the people warning, he passed through
the canon into Umpqua, after the troops, whom
he failed to get, in time to catch the Indians at
their deviltries. Meanwhile we got all the fam
lies in the valley (seven in number) collected at
two houses, in which We defended ourselves
against the Indians for three days. Another
white man was killed and two were wounded
We went back and got the man that was first
killed the morning after the Indians left.
They plundered our wagons of all our groce-
rics, provisions, blankets, clothes, &C., leaving
us destitute; killed or wounded our cattle five
yoke Of oxen, two cows and two fat steers
so that none were fit for work.

We are now enjoying one of the most terrible
Indian wars on record. Men, women and chill
dren, have been massacred, houses burned, and
cattle killed or driven of, and yet, even here,
there are some who cry out that this is an unjust
war! But let such men run as narrow risk OF
their lives as did, hear the horrid yells Of the
hellish foe, knowing they are gloating over and
mangling the lifeless body Of friend and com.
panion, and then do not doubt that they will
hate them as intensely as hate them.
