1t is stated that from April, 1856, no
less than forty four thousand coolies have
been landed on the island of Cuba, while
the deaths by the way, on shipboard,
amounted to three thousand eight huad-
red and .forty.fonr. The Operldnd mail,
published at Hong Kong, which came to
uand by the last arrival, states that bro
kers were at that time engaging Coolies
to proceed to Canton, with promise of
being employed as cooks and servants to
the British and French troops, at sala-
ries of from four to six dollars month
But, says the mail, "as soon as they
reach Canton, Portuguese, Spanish, and
Chinese agents are found waiting, to ship
them direct, by steamer or lochra from
Macao, for emigration to Havana" OF
two hundred and seventy-fve who left
Hong Kong in an unseaworthy ship, the
captain was able to land in Cuba only one
hundred and seventy-fye alive. One
hundred of the poor wretches perished
by the way Of fever and suffering. "The
way kept them submissive, "said the
captain, "was by stationing men at each
hatchway, with muskets loaded and bay
onets fixed" The term of service of
these Coolies is nominally eight years,
but the prob ,biliy is, that not soul of
them will ever return.
England has great horror of the At
rican slave trade; but throws the protec-
ton Of her flag over the traffic in Coolies.
She boards and searches american ves-
sells in order to ascertain if they be sla-
vers; but "does not object to the French
emigration scheme while the wants of the
British colonies are being supplied by the
Coolie trade.

Douglas Defiant-IIe denounces the Spring.
field Convention.

During the debate on the British Ag-
grossion Resolutions in the Senate, on
Tuesday, Mr.. Douglas said:
He did not propose to 60 into this
question of British outrages. He should
vote for the resolutions. His object in
rising was simply to notice telegraphic
dispatch giving in account Of the procee-
dings of what was termed an Administra-
tion State Convention, in Springfield, in
which his public course was condemned.
He proceeded to show this was not con.
vention of the Democracy Of Illinois,
The persons nominated for State officers
are not, and have not been, recognized
as consistent Democrats. The true Dem
ocratic Convention was held last April.
Instead of being abused, he was endorsed
by it. What was this Administration
Convention There was man in Iii.
nois who held Office, aud who travelled all
over the State, claiming that he is author
lied by the Administration to denounce
every man as a traito- who does not ap.
prove the Lecompton Constitution.
This man, with few boilers from the
genuine Convention, where they were
voted down, twenty to one, got up the
recent one. The squad of federal Office
holders were threatened with removal il
they failed to attend. Their object is to
divide the Democracy of Illinois, and de,
nounce Douglas. Never yet had he been
denounced by the regular convention
A bogus gathering was got up by DR..
Charles Lieb, agent of the Post Office
Department. His history was this:
When Jim Lane and his gang were
driven out of Kansas, Lieb fed to Illinois,
pretending to be confident friend Of
Buchanan. This Lieb was the chief Off
Ger Of the Society Of Danites who took
horrid oaths to break up the Democratic
party, under the penalty of being reyiled
by men, frowned on by devils, scorned at
by angels, and forsaken by God.

ltePOrteO Dc0th Of The Emperor Of Chs
mn.
The N. Y. Christian Aduocate of the
10th, publishes the following intelligence
from gcntleman whom we suppose to be
an American missionary in China:
Fun CHAU, China, March -, 1858.
1t is currently reported that the
Emperor is dead. The Russian embassy
received letters from Pekip, dated on
last Christmas day, stating that TIE EN-
peror then was very sick that his low
er limbs were entirely paralyzcd, and that
he could not live much longer. The
English embassy received news via eau
ton, from Pekin, dated in February,
lS5S, to the effect that the Emperor is
dead. This report, however, is not
credited here. The report Of the En-
peror's dangerous illness seems 70 be well
authenticated and it is highly probable
his death may soon add fresh compli-
cation to the present negotiations, and
furnish another link to the chain of
great events by which God is opening
up this mighty empire to the Gospel of
His Son. .....-.. .....

quarter part of those who stood in arms
on the green. These are the village heroes
who were more than of noble blood, prov
ing by their spirit that they were of a
race divine. They gave their lives in
testimony to the rights of mankind, be-
queathing to their country as assurance
OF success in the mighty struggle which
they began. Their names are held in
grateful remembrance, and the expand
ing millions of their countrymen renew
and multiply their praise from generation
to generation. They fulfilled their duty
not from the accidental impulse of the
moment; their action was the slowly ri
pened fruit of Providence and of time
The light that led them on was combined
of rays from the whole history of the race );
from the traditions of the Hebrews in the
gray of the worlds morning; from the
example of Him who laid down his life
on the cross for the life of humanity 4;
from the religious creed which proclaimed
the divine presence in man, and on this
truth, as in a life boat foated the liberties
of nations over the dark flood of the mid
die ages; from the customs of the Ger
mans, transmitted out of their forests tc
the councils of Saxon England; from the
burning faith and courage of Martin Lu-
ther; from trust in the inevitable univer-
salty of Gods sovereignty as taught by
Saul of Tarsus, and Augustine, through
Calvin, and the divines of New England
from the aveneing ferceness of the Puri-
tans, who dashed down the mitre on the
ruins of the throne; from the bold dissent
and creative self assertion of the earliest
emigrants of Massachusetts from the
statesman who made, and the philoso-
pliers who expounded the revolution OF
England from the liberal spirit and ana
lying inquisitiveness of the eighteenth
century; from the cloud of witnesses OF
allages to the reality and the rightfulness
of human freedom. All the centuries
bowed themselves from the recess of a
past eternity to cheer in their sacrifice
the lowly men who proved themselves
worthy of their forerunners, and whose
children rise up and call themselves
blessed. Needless of his own danger,
Samuel Adams, with the voice of a
prophet, exclaimed, "Oh! what a glori-
Gus morning is this!" for he saw that
his country's independence was rapidly
fastening on, and like Columbus in the
tempest, knew that the storm did but beal
him the more swiftly towards the undis
covered world.

A LADY, OPINION OF ALADY's MAN

A LADY's OPINION OF A ALADY's MAN
Mrs. Stephens, in her excellent month
ly magazine, thus "pitches in against a
class Of men which is becoming far too
numerous in our cities and towns. Hear
what she says:
"Our own private opinion of the Lady s
Man is, that he is thoroughly contempti-
ble-a sort of specimen of the life hardly
worth thinking about-a nutshell with
the kernel withered up-a handful of
foam drifting over the wine of life, some
thing not altogether unpleasant to the
fancy, but of no earthly use. A woman
of sense would as soon put to sea in a
man-of-war made of shingles, or take up
her residence in card d-house, as dream of
attaching herself to lady-killer
Women worth the name are seldom
deceived into thinking our lady's man the
choicest specimen of his sex Whatever
their Ignorance may be, womanly intuition
must tell them that the men who live for
great objects, and whose spirits are so
firmly knit that they are able to encoun-
lcI tuc SlOIHiS Vi lllc--Ilcu WHOSE Ucplu
and warmth of feeling resemble the pow
erful current of mighty river, and not
the bubbles on its surface, who, if they
love, are never smitten by mere beauty of
form or features-that these men are far
more worthy even of occupying their
thoughts in idle moments than the fops
and men about town with whose attentions
they amuse themselves. If we were to
tell him this, he would only laugh; he
has no pride about him, although full of
vanity; and it matters not to him what
we may broadly affirm or gently insinuate.
"Soft and delicate though he be, he is
as impervious to ridicule as hod-
and as regardless of honest contempt as
city alderman. Were you to hand him
this article, he would take it to some So
cial party, and read it aloud in the most
melllfuous voice as homage to his own
attractions"

SLANDER.-If you find a man circr

SLANDER-If you find man circu-
lating malicious reports about his neigh
Dor, it may be set down as an inviolable
rule that any such person is dishonest.-
Not only dishonest, but, from his infam-
Gus disposition, dangerous to all whom he
may be acquainted. He circulates false
impressions, and sets people upon an
erroneous course of Judgment and conduct
in respect to others, which may frequently
be ruinous to their prosperity. 1t does
general injury to society, more than to the
party slandered, as it destroys confidence.
The man who is guilty of circulating mall
icious reports must necessarily be deceit
full, and, therefore, dishonest; he must
be abandoned to every principle of moral
feeling. In ancient times, when a man
was convicted of being a slanderer, he
was stoned to death as being danger
and curse to the whole community. In
modern times there is even a better reme-
dy than this-it is to cease all association
with such characters. Treat them like
lepers, abandon them to their own kind
which is social death, one by which thew
serve as an example to others. This rule
IS observed among all intelligent people,
and should be invariably carried out in
every place by all good citizens.

AN I111NoIs RoMANcE.-The Rush

AN ILLINOIS ROMANCE. The Rush
vile Ill.) Citizen gives the following
specimen of Illinois Romance:
can elderly gentleman had beautiful
daughter, one whom he loved much, IN
whom all his hopes were centered. Some
two years or more ago young mana
stranger-came to board with him, and
finally to work for him. His good char
acter, straight t-forwardness, genial DISPOSE
ton, amiability and virtue, soon ingratia-
ted him into the good graces of the whole
family; so that some eighteen months
ago, the old gentleman having some bust
ness to be done in Beardstown, intrusted
this young man to do it for him and gave
him the use of his team, &C. About the
same time, his daughter having business
some little shopping, such as girls al
ways have-at the same city, and the
fathers confidence in the youth being SO
great, he allowed her to accompany him.
At night they returned, safe and sound,
the business and the shopping satisfacto-
rly done.
Things went on as usual The fam
lily and the youth mutually attached, land
the attachment constantly growing and
Strengthening, until, indeed, the parents
of the girl began to talk about a match
between the young folks, and to observe
with pleasure the growing intimacy and
apparent fondness between them. Hav-
ing such confidence in both, the old folks
retired, as in the country they generally
do, early, leaving the "lovers," as they
hoped, to make their own terms, and fix
upon their own arrangements.
"Judge, then, of the fathers surprise,
when one night, couple of weeks ago,
he woke up about eleven o'clock at night
quite sick, and having occasion to leave
his own, caught his young and beautiful
daughter, in her night robes, just in the
act of taking her place upon the young
mans couch! OF course a scene fol-
lowed. The old man wept and scolded
and tore his hair He upbraided his
daughter, and poured the vials of his
wrath upon the ungrateful youth.
The youth took it coolly-calmly, in
deed, under the circumstances. So soon
as he could get the old gentleman to lis
ten, he told him that he need not make
such fuss; that his daughter had
right to share his couch, to sleep in his
arms, &c, Gmagine all the poetry.)
"Next morning bright and early, in
the language of distinguished novelist,
a solitary horseman might have been seen
vending his way towards Beardstown. 1t
was that girls father. Crossing the river
at the ferry, he hurried to the Court
House, and by the records of the County
Clerk found that the aforesaid young man
and woman had been legally joined in
marriage just eighteen months before!'

THE WANT OF A TRUE AIM-''I re-
spect the man, says Goethe, "who knows
distinctly what he wishes. The greater
part of all the mischief in the world ari-
ses from the fact, that men do not suffi-
ciently understand their own aims
They have undertaken to build tower,
and spend no more labor on the founda-
tion than would be necessary to erect
hut" Is not this an exact description
of most mems strivings? Every man
undertakes to build his tower, and no one
counts the cost. In all things the times
are marked by want of steady aim and
patient industry. There is scheming and
plotting in abundance, but no consider
ate, persevering effort. The young man
launches into life with no definite course
In view. If he goes into trade, he has
perhaps general desire to be rich; but
he has at the same time an equally strong
desire for present qualification and luxu-
rious living. He is unwilling to pay the
price of his ambition He endeavors to
secure the present, and let 90 the future.
He turns seed-time into harvest, eats the
corn he ought to plant. If he goes into
professional life, he sets out with gene
raj desire to be eminent, but without con-
siderlng in what particular he wishes to
excel, and what is the price of that ex-
cellence. So he divides his time and
talents among great variety of pursuits;
endeavoring to be all things, he becomes
superficial in proportion as he is univer-
sal, and having acquired brief reputa-
tion as worthless as it is short-lived, sinks
down into hopeless insignificance.
