The Chinese Coolies In Peru.

II was wise and humane act Of Congress
that prohibited all American citizens from en-
gaging in the coolie trade. The more we
know of that trade the less likely we are to
speak well of it. The State Department in
Washington has just published an interesting
correspondence between our Minister in China
and Prince Kung in reference to the cruel
treatment Of Chinese coolies in Peru. IL ap-
pears from this correspondence that the I'M
fortunate Cinnamon who were brought to that
country as laborers addressed memorial to
the Emperor of China detailing the cruelties to
which they were subjected in the land of their
adoption. IL is new version of the old story
Of the Israelites under Egyptian masters, and
our Minister in Lima was requested by the
Chinese there TO transmit the memorial to
China, which be did. When IL reached Pekiu
Mr.. J. Ross Browne forwarded 1t 10 Prince
Kung, with an offer on his part TO do all In his
power to mitigate the seventies complained Of
Prince Kung's reply is creditable 10 him as
statesman and man Of feeling, and shows
besides his high appreciation Of the efforts Of

our government TO secure fair play for China
men wherever they may be.
1t Is scarcely necessary to say that we en-
dorse the complaints of the memoriMlsts. We
have not a shadow of doubt that they are In
every particular true. The Peruvian govern
ment may be ignorant, and probably is, of the
wrongs complained Of and our government
will do well to call its attention to the subject.
We have befriended the Chinese when all
other great Powers were disposed to continue
treating them as barbarians, aud it is now our
duty to carry out, as far as we can, the spirit
as well as the letter of the Burlingame treaty.
The letter of Mr.. J. Ross Browne to Secretary
Fish takes the right view of the subject and
is written with warmth that does him credit.
The Chinese who were hired as laborers in
Peru are, according to their own statement,
badly clothed and badly fed, and driven with
c0ngus upon their necks, amid blows and
threats, to their daily labor. If this is the
fruit of the coolie trade all good men will re-
joice that we at least have done with it.

That the boy is father to the man ia
an old adage. Boy thieves if not checked
make adult burglars and murderers and
furnish plethora Of food for the State
prison and the gallows. The police Of
some of our precincts complain that they
have more trouble with boys varying In age
from ten years to fifteen than with grown up
criminals. Not many nights ago some young
folks made their way into store in Washing
ton street through hole ip the pavement and
gathered an amount Of plumber which they
were only prevented from carrying of by want
of nerve to 60 through with their nefarious
enterprise. A similar case occurred In Green
witch street the other night. Young America
got into q vault under wholesale store and
turned everything upside down, but the youth
full burglars were caught in the act. They
proved to be not more than nine years old.
eff such things be done in the green wood

our reformatory schools and other public in
situations doing to keep children out Of mis-
chief and crime? Cannot our public school
system or our humanitarian philosophers ac-
complish something to stop this unhappy con-
dition Of thingsp We can hardly expect the
police to arrest the progress of crime when it
develops itself to this extent in the very in
fancy of m anhood.

WORTH MORE THAN THEIR SALT.-Three
years ago the Jersey meadows, between the
suburb Of that name and the city of Newark,
were unproductive swamps. They grew
nothing but salt hay, and that was hardly
''worth its salt" In fact, they were an enemy
to public health. Now it appears that
science and skill, with the assistance Of iron
dykes and the progress of the age, have con-
verted six hundred acres of them into good
productive land, in excellent cultivation
part in pasture and part growing corn and
vegetables. There are at present a hundred
and sixty head of cattle brought from the
West refreshing themselves upon these
lands, which have lain waste for centuries,

THE HONOR OF TIE STATE. The folly Of
Marshal Barlow in surrounding himself with
United States soldiers to protect his person
from the possible, but highly improbable con-
sequences Of State court order, issued in the
ordinary way, is made the subject by partisan
and violent journals Of charge that the honor
and dignity Of the State have been infringed
upon, and should be resented by the govern
ment This is sheer nonsense. Sensations
are always in order nowadays, and soldiers
are always ready to obey orders. This
Chambers street excitement was very small
affair, and the attempt to make out Of it a
collision between federal and State authority,
requiring any action on the part Of the State
Executive, is smaller still. 1t is only another
sensational bubble, pricked just in time to save
an imitation which might have made noise il

New York City improvements.

We publish to-day, on another page, full
and detailed account of the improvements
which during the past twelve or thirteen years
have been transforming New York into what
already promises to become one of the finest
and most populous cities in the world. After
glimpses at the Battery, the City Hall Park,
st. Johns Park, Gramercy Park, Washing
ton, Tompkins, Union and Madison squares,
and the palatial dwellings on Fifth avenue,
a view is presented of the new Boulcvards and
the rich and picturesque country through
which they are to run, and particularly Of the
eight hundred and sixty acres which Mr..
Green and his fellow Commissioners have magi-
cally converted from rocky wastes and pestilen-
tial marshes into glorious Park that, with its
labyrinth Of broad drives and winding foot
paths, its lawns and lakelets, its flowers and
leafy groves, its Fairgrounds, it's museums and
its projected geological gardens and artistic
decorations, bids fair to excel the most famous
parks of European cities. With the COM
pleted Park exhibiting all the resources of
landscape gardening; with other delightful
breathing places" left down town; with
widened streets and covered sidewalks with
new and commodious markets with perfect
system of piers and wharves; with elevated
and underground railways, and with New
York extending its activities and its splendors
towards the upper part of the island, this
metropolis will ere long be unrivalled

THE NEW POSTAL CONVENTION WITH SwITz-
misunderstanding to the postal convention
which has just been concluded by the govern
ments of the United States and Switzerland,
the postal money order system is to be brought
into use between the two countries. Persons
wishing to transmit money can do so through
the Money Order Department of the Post Office
without taking the trouble to buy bills Of ex-
change from the bankers. The matter of ex-
change has been arranged by the Postmaster
General through banking house in New York.
Parties sending money to Switzerland will
need to have dealings only with the money
order clerks at the various Post Offices
throughout the country, and will thus escape
all the vexation occasioned by the Auctuating
and irregular charges often made on the same
day by different bankers. 1t is to be hoped
that postal conventions with a similar provi-
sion may soon be made with other European
countries.
