Terrible Account Of Ihe Chinese COoIie
Trade

The St. Helena Guardian of the 81 uIt.,
relates q sad story perhaps the ssddest
that has ever been recorded in connection
with this traffic in human flesh. The French
bark Tamsris, Captain Rannie, left Macco
on February 9th With three hundred emi-
grants, Chinese doctor, and Portuguese
interpreter, besides eighteen Of a crew. Ac-
cording to the account of those of the sea
men still on board the Tamaris, everything
passed on pleasantly until within two hun
dred and seventy miles of the Isle Of Java.
revolt broke out among the free emigrants
who seemed to have got the best of it, the
crew taking to the boats, desertlng the ship,
and leaving their unfortunate Captain, who
either did not wish, or was not able, to
abandon his ship, ready prey to these en-
ragged semi-saVages. What happened to this
unfortunate Captain We cannot learn for GER
tain. According to the interpreter on board
the Tamaris, he was cut up and thrown
overheard. Thirty days these savages re-
mained in-pOssession Of the ship, when they
were captured by Dutch an-of-war,
sent in pursuit. The Dutch found O Chi
nese installed in the late Captains quarters,
but could not discover the slightest trace Of
Mr.. Rannie. They placed the Chimes and
the other leaders Of the revolt in irons and
took the ship 70 Padang. At Padang the
remnant OF the crew, who had landed at
Java, rej1ined their ship. A new captain
and chief officers were appointed, and the
ship started for her destination on the 18th
OF June. b. this time the nj moer Of
Coolies had been reduced. by arms and dis
ease, TO 245. Out Of this number scores
Jumped overheard and committed suicide
when they found that they were to proceed
on their voyage. Scores of others have
died Of what Coolie ship captain plsg-

nj ills 20 the cotton manufacture by Messrs
Blythe and Co. aud by Messrs. Lloyd and
SummerHeld, TO the earthenware and glass
mannfscture by Mr.. Goodall, of Leeds, to
printing, etc etc. The principle, as we have
seen, is being adopted by the working class
I'm their own undertakings as bY the Cabinet
makers. or by the Frame-mskers and GIL
ders. Thousands of working men are in
these various establishments learning to
enter into the position, to share the interests
Of the employer class. The commercial sue
cess Of these undertakings is already patent
to the world in the handsome dividends al
ready paid by the older established ones to
their shareholders One sample only of the
efhcacy Of the principle, drawn from quite
another quarter than those hitherto indicat-
cd, shall be given The respected chief of
the Tonic Sofia writes thus -" We have
tried the partnership of industry plan in
our printing Office at PlaistoW for a year.
Before that, the Office yielded me either "a
or per cent. Since we adopted the plan, II
has yielded 5 per cent. and promises 10 yield
more. But better stHt, IL sGues me no end Of
Ueration and care"
Not the least remarkable feature Of the
Cooperative movement, as we'll o. that Of
the PARTNERSHIPS Of Industry which has
grown out of is is it's connection with edu-
cation. The example set by the ROchdale
Equitable Pioneers. as q reading room and
educational fund, has been followed by
many cooperative bodies, ia Lancashire
especially. Thousands Of pounds have thus
been raised BY the workingmen, as a volun-
tsry rate on their Co operative success, for
purposes Of selfimprovement. And it is
from the example thus set them by the
working classes that the fou nders Of the new
" Partnerships of Industry" have borrowed
the provision embodied in the articles OF as
sociation Of several Of them, which author
ICES their directors, before recommending q
to set apart a reserve fund, for
the purpose, amongst others, Of creating
and maintaining fund for establishing and
suppor ting library, news-room, workmen's
club or other educational benefits for the
servants Of the Company"
The Cooperative movement is. however,
no doubt still In the main confined 10 our
mauufacturing, mining, and coast districts
shouga gradually creeping into the small
towns of the agricultural district; as in
Essex, in the shape Of co -perative stores
or even laying hold on agriculture, through
sha cooperative farms Of Suffolk. The
spread Of general education is, we believe
slowly paving a way for it on all sides.
