culturalists and manufacturers Charleston Naes.
THE story about the importation into Texas.
and sale of coolies, was joke The coolies in
question were simply cast iron figures designed for
segar,i tea, tobacco and grocery stores. Several
Radiealpapers were thrown'into FITS by the report,
but are rapidly recovering The Philadelphia
North Amencan thus went off the handle: The
worst feature in the affair is that tWo-thirds OF
these unhappy Chinese are females, some of them
beautiful. Of course they were bought in China
on speculation and sent to Texas to seek market,
inst as the same kind of live stock of different
race used to be sent to New Orleans This de-
yelopment is nothing new in regard to the Chinese
cooGe trade except n 50 far as the importation of
women goes This is novelty"
THE Northern papers speak of the existence
of strong feeling in commercial circles to have a
law passed by Congress specially providing for con.
tracts made payable in gold. This is matter
closely affecting the cotton trade and more partc-
u!arly so in the South As tits, every bale Of cot
ton exported is virtually paid for in gold and it it
could be sold unquali6edy for gold it is said that
the whole cotton trade of the country would soon
be done on gold basis. We should be nd Of vio-
lent fluctuations, and most important step in adj
vance made toward the general resumption of spe-
eIe payments. The JOURNAL Of Couaueree suggests
and urges them to agitate the subject, and by COM
bined action bring about 50 desirable change.

then brought together who met for tn,
first time, thereby forming acquaintance
which it is hoped will prove mutually
pleasing and beneficial The supper was
highly spoken Of by ALL We think il
was one of the best ever prepared in the
place, and there was large quantity left

THE AMERICAN EXPRESS. This COM
pany has again stopped running to this
place, because, we presume, the goods
would have to be transported here over
land. 1t seems rs If this Express Com

it can to discommode the business men of
this village and subject them to all the
Inconvenience possible Last winter the
Merchants Union Express provided a
regular tri-weekly line from here to Me.
nisha. 1t WAS a great accomm cdatiOn
to our merchants and it was we'll patron
lied When the little arrangement b.
tween the express companies took place,
the American forced the Merchants Tn
ion to yaeate this route because it belong
ed to the territory assigned to the former.
The American took the place of the
Merchants Union, and during the season
Of navigation the promises that the line
that winter is upon us, and Just the very
time when our business men require a
regular express line the most, the Ameri-
can draws off and all the arrangements of
our business men are again knocked into
p. If it was the first time this had
happened 1t would not be so bad. Our
business men were given to understand
that the line would be kept up, and nat-
ronized it during the summer months. on
many occasions when they were losing
money By it, and now to be kicked. so 70
speak, for the second or third time ;s
piling it on little too thick.
We presume the Goodrich EXPRESS
will keep up its line, on the boats, as
heretofore. But during the winter
months it will necessarily be very irregu-
lar, and consequently it will not be fully
UP to the requirements of our business
men. The Goodrich Line is entitled to
all the pl aise for having excellent express
arrangements during the Summer.
