+, No, tho Cool,, System slaver,t

Since the slave trade has been sup
pressed, says the Napa County Reporter,
numbers Of Coolies have been shipped to
Cuba, and the immigration steadily con-
tiuues. Parties have made it their bust
ness to inquire into the matter, and find
that the contracts between the par
ties interested in the business of supply
ing the planters and the planter them
selves, is but another name for slavery
that these d" contracts" in fact, are
simply bills of sale, and which make the
Coolies as much the chattel Of the plan
tiers as their African predecessor.
By these "c~ontracts" the Chinese are
bound in seryitude for q stated length
Of time, and these writings are so word
ed as, to all intents and purposes, make
him the slave of his master. The plant
err can work him if he chooses, punish
him at his own will, hire him out to an
other planter, impose heavy fines or
punishments upon him, if he attempts
to run away-in fact, the planter is so
empowered as to be as legally the owner
Of the Coolie as he was Of the African
slave. The Coolie has no redress-no
one to appeal to for protection-and
soon learns that he is truly a slave.
Much complaint is. made, but as yet no
means have been discovered whereby
the masters power can be lessened.
The fact 10 not generally understood,
vet is nevertheless so, that this same
system Of slavery exists in California,
though in not exactly the same form
or to the same extent. The lead
ing Chinese houses in San Francisco
contract with a number of their country
men, paying their passage to the State,
aad requiring in return therefor so
much Of their earnings for a certain
length Of time. During the term Of the
contract, which is usually u number OF
years, the Chinese laborer is virtually
the property of the Chinese houses in
San Francisco. They put him out to la
Dor wherever it suits them-the laborer
having nothing to say in the choosing
of employment-and untilthe expiration
of the contract he is their property.
He cannot lay down his pick or shovel,
as the case may be, and seek other en-
ployment. No, he is a slave, and mus,
heed the bidding Of his master. The
wages he earns are not his own-he has
mo handling Of tit goes to his master,
who allows him a certain per cent. of it.
As yet no effort has been made to put a
stop to this system Of slavery. Our
statutes emphstieally declare there shall
be no such system of servitude permit
ted in the State, yet we see n plain vio'
lation of the enactment, and that those
whose duty it is to see that the laws are
obeyed, pretend ignorance and wink at
the evil. Why is this2

THE RAILROAD EXPLORING ESpEpIr

The RAILROAD EXPLORING EXPEDITION
Among the passengers by the las,
steamer from the East, was the scientific
corps composing the important Central
Railroad Exploring Expedition, set on
foot by order Of Congress, and placed
under the general direction Of the Secre.
tary Of War. The section to be sur.
veyed is the belt Of country along which
the Central Pacific Railroad will be con.
structed, from Virginia city to Denver
about 900 miles; the object being to as
certain its mineral and other resources,
An accurate map Of the country, en-
bracing = strip Of seventy-ive or one
hundred miles wide, will be prepared.
Careful search will be made for coal, the
discovery Of which along the line Of that
road will be worth much more to the
country than gold or silver. Water will
also be looked after in the desert places.
The agricultural character will be pretty
thoroughly studied, and the fora and
fauna Of the country will come in for a
reasonable share Of attention. Three
years are to be occupied in the survey,
which will doubtless be extended to
fully six, or until the steam horse
courses, with uninterrupted track, from
the Pacific to the Atlantic.
The party is composed of young and
energetic men; but such as are well up
in their respective departments, and
their outfit is full in material and ex-
cellent in character. The military
authorities on this coast are instructed
to extend every needed assistance to the
party and the enterprise. An escort Of
twenty or thirty cavalry will be detailed
as q protection from hostile Indians in
the desert regions to which they are
going. s1e'- 80 a,a

A Muu.Wolf,

Rev. DR.. Butler, the well-known Meth
odist missionary who established the
mission of that church in India in 1856,
recently returned to this country. He
makes the following statement of a re-
markable case:
In 1859 a British soldier, while bear
ing \ dispatch from one magistrate to
another in the kingdom of Dude, passed
an u~nfrequented ravine, where he saw
a pack Of wolves, and with them a hu-
man being, evidently one Of their COM
pany. Immediately turning back he re-
ported the circumstance to the magis-
trate for whom he was travelling The
latter forthwith mustered a number Of
Coolies and went to the place. The pack
of wolves fed short distance and sought
refuge in a sort Of cave or den. Begin
ming to dig, the party o o discovered
the feet Of the wild man, and, drawing
him forth, succeeded in binding and
carrying him to the town. DR.. Butler
has seen him often since, and says he is
evidently a man, and at the time of his
capture apparently about twenty-four
years of age.
The captured creature at first violently
resisted the attempt to put clothing up
on him, but after a while ceased to tear
the garment. He is now kept by a gen.
tlemau in the city Of Thabje-Vampore,
some eight hundred miles west Of CAL
cutta. When first taken he was unwill-
ing to eat anything but raw meat, and
has never been able to speak or make
any approximation to a knowledge Of
the alphabet. If any n looks arrest
ly or sharply at him, he expresses his
annoyance BY a half-uttered grunt, i'm
mediately turning away and settling
upon his launches in a corner Of the
room, or lies down. He eats his food
of the ground and, although evidently
a human being, is in habits a wolf, with
the instincts Of that beast.
This is certainly an anomalous fact in
natural history, although it is said that
four similar cases are knownto have &C.
Cured in India, presenting the same
general facts.
Wolves abound in India, where the
inhabitants live wholly in the cities and
villages; and at the approach of night
all persons employed in the open country
retire to these cluster, Of houses or
huts, and these rowing and ferocious an-
imals find free range It frequently
happens that a wolf steals into a house
and carries of a child. So frequently
is this the case that in the schedules
furnished for recording the mortality in
in each place, M column is headed,
Carried off by wolves"
DR.. Buffers theory of this strange
case is that q she-wolf probably carried
off this person when he vas an infant,
but that before she devoured her prey,
the child instinctirely searched for food.
Beginning to draw its nourishment, it
awoke in the wolf maternal instinct
which led to the p%resvation of its life,
and thus the boy lived and grew.

HELD TO ANSWER FOR SOMETHING
WRONG. - On Thursday night last, a
young woman Of about sixty summers,
entered an auction store on Main street,
as had been her wont for ONE time,
whenever she had business there. On
this occasion she entered for the express
and only purpose of purchasing a hoop
skirt. Eve thought they were out Of
fashion.) John the a]ucrioneer has
"slathers" of them for sale; so q filter
was selected from the lot in his "Shee-
bang" and all was we'll. The young
woman stepped into the next room to
try it on-and who had a better right
when the tallow dip in the store flick
cred, and suddenly eItinguished itself.
This was q signal to close business; so
it closed. The doors were securely fast
eued, and all was still as night. Tempu,
tugit; but there wasn't much Of it few
until the Argus-eyed-minions of the law
disturbed Johns slumbers, if be slept
any, and marched him to Capt. Burt's
"wak-i-up" in the rear Of the City Hall.
Yesterday be was the impsrsonstion Of
injured innocence, but the fair one ac-
knowledged the corn. John still man
fully pleads "not guilty. and does it
so we'll, too, that Juge Clinton thought
he would like to hear him plead it in
Probate Court. Not to disappoiut the
Judge in his designs, he gave security
in the sum of FIVE hundred dollars to be
on hand.-Sah Lake Vedeae.

IT HAS been too much the habit Of the
active leaders Of the Union party to in
dulge in on utter ob~liviousness of the
fact that they will have to deal in the
coming election with a powerful, a Wig
liant, and q confident party, a party
which in 1864, fighting against Abraham
Lincoln, whose name was a tower Of
strength over that Of Mcclellan, wal
vanquished by . majority meager enough
in a vote of over one hundred thousand.
They forget a fact generally acknow-
lodged at the time, that Lincoln's popu.
larity with the masses, and the eIigen.
cies Of the situation upon the great
theater of the war drew thousands Of
temporary and reluctant votes from the
ranks Of the Democracy. A very large

WoNAN's RIaHTs IN ESeLAND.-The
Weman's Rights question is carried on
more quietly in England than in Amer
lea, and therefore, perhaps, more effect
ually. In the new class list Of those
who have passed examinations for the
University of Cambridge are: Junior
boys, l,l26i junior girls, lls; senior
girls, 81. How many junior and senior
girls have entered at Harvard or Yale?
| observe slso that IS female candidates
for medical degrees have just entered
the Medical College Of London. Tho
women here do not give 10 many Ice
lures or make 80 many speeches on wo-
mans rights, but they 60 to work and
take them. Four-ffths of the work OF
the postofices and telegraphsis done BY
women. They keep q largo proportion
Of the shops. They sell ~two-shirds or
more Of the beer and liquors. In fact,
English women are, as u rule, sturdy
enough to take their own part, and do
pretty much as they like, and would
o have votes and seats in Parliament
if they cared for them. As it is, they
write their share Of the books, newspa-
pers and periodicals, and have a large
influence In public affairs. DR.. Mary E.
Walker has given a temperance lecture
in the Fetter Lane Chapel, the n l be-
lieve, where Swedenborg used to 60 to
hear the Moravians, and as the medical
students kept away, she got only ap-
plause and thanks and q bouquet. But
another Mary Walker is likely to fare
worse than our fair medica at Castle
Thunder. She took it into her head a
few years ago to don male attire, and
engaged as q barman. Somehow the
breeches seem to have put bad notions
into her head, for she went to making
love to the pretty girls who came after
the family beer. One Of them CORES
pended with her, and was engaged to
be married to her. As making presents
costs money, the femenine barman bor-
rowed from the till, was detected, plead
ed guilty, and is now waiting for her
sentence. Her enamored ~.fancee visited
her in Jail. They are not to be married
at present, as woman's rights have not
attained to that degree of development.
