A SUGGESTION has been suggested by
many of the citizens that it would be good
plan for one or both of the steamers that ply
between this city and the islands, if, during
three evenings in the week, they would make
their last return trip from Little Chebeague,
Peaks and Cushings Islands an hour later
than at present. By SO doing parties could
leave here for Little Chebeague, Peaks and
Cushing's by the Ella at 2.30 P. NJ, and re-
main till $50 P. M; or for Peaks and Cush-
ing's by the Gazelle at 2 and $50 p M and re-
main till 615 P. NJ, returning to the city at
the pleasaltest time of the day-just before
sunset-arriving at the wharf at Portland
without being subjected to the hot rays of the
summer sun, and also giving excursionists
more time to enjoy themselves at the islands.
We hope some arrangement to that effect may
be satisfactorily made.

The undersigned has perfected arrangements for
fitting spectacles to the eye according to the meth
cd pursued by the best 0custs In this country and
in Europe. This method is based upon an examin-
alton and test Of the eye such as is entirely un-
known in the ordinary fitting of glasses-and which
an oculist only is qualified to make.
Glasses fitted in this way win not only give the
greatest assistance to the eye, but viii prevent pain
in using and will best preserve the sight lt deter
mines to mathem tcal exaetness what glasses only
can he worn sithout inconvenience or injury. Want
OF accommodation and other common defects OF Wis
ion, whereby many persons have been unable to get
glasses to suit them-are all corrected BY ascertain
ing in this the exact lens required for each
eye.
The rapid failure OF sight which many persons ex-
perieuce after they begin glasses demonstrates
how incompetent they are to dt their own eyes,
People are troubled with many little detects in their
eyesight which they do not understand, and ire
qusnty force their eyes, although dssmilar to lock
through lenses precisely alike; consequently one eye
is constantly strained and injured This is the eniy
cause Of many cases of blindness; and in any case,
II prevents the harmonious action Of both eyes, and
the full development of the sight.
This method Is not put forward as in any respect
edge Of the eye, and is recommended and practiced
by all the best Oculists in the world. have arrang

WHAT THE WORD CooLIE MEASs.-We
coy a. follows from the New York
Ucrali.
Most Americans and Europeans, who
are unacquainted with the Chinese life,
imagine that the word coolie embraces in
its meaning all the population of the
Chinese empire which is devoted to az
riculture and the various departments OF
productive industry. This is an error
The word coolie is Bengal, and signifies
laborer, and is not Chinese at all. 1t is
used by the populations Of the seaboard
towns, who, for the most part, speak. in
common with the foreign residents, what
Is called I" Pigeon English" to designate
q particular class OF employees There
are coolie riggers, coolie carpenters
!" coelio deck hands, "house coolies" /"
etc, but they form separate elias. from
the population around them. In like
IN inner tho word mandarin is generally
SUI opposed in this country and in England
to he a Chinese term; but it is not. Ii
is lso Pigeon English, and is derived
fro Al the Portuguese word, mandar,' to
cor ,mand. Being accepted by the for
eigp,ers Of the seabsard as entirely salts.
fact ory, the Chinese themselves, who take
kind ly to the absurdities and facilities OF
the :" Pigeon English" for the transaction
Of b. asiness, have adopted it into their
vocc ,bulary. In like manner many other
wor Is, common to both natives and for.
eign srs in China, are misunderstood in
the h ONES Of the "outside barbarians, y
AMI 'oeing misunderstood, are Of course
misa pplied. For instance, the spithet
coolies" applied to emigrants from
China to California, and fastened on
these enterPrising people in the Golden
State, is q misnomer. Yet thousands be
lieve that tho Pacific States are being
overrun by a different class Of Chinese
laborercrs from what they actually are.
Those Chinese, who labored so faithfully
and well in the building Of the Pacific
Railroad, and who form so important
and valuable al element in the laborng
population Of the State Of California, arc
not coolies properly so called, but emi.
grants from China seeking for higher re
muncration and better mcaus Of subsist.
ence than was afforded them in the Cen.
trail lowery land. Very many Of them,
it is true, enter into contracts with
wealthy merchants OF China, to do spc.
cited amount of work and stay certain
length Of time in the'terrtory. of Uncle
Sam, and agree to terms understood and
agreed upon before they leave the coast
Of China, just rs Coolies agree with Coo
lie agents at China seaports; but they are
entirely different class Of people. The
majority are cmigrants from China, who
have voluntarily left the shores of the
Celestial Empire, just as Irishmen have
abandoned their mud cabins in Connaught
or Munster TO seek wider field and q
higher scale Of remuneration in the TEEN
ing West; and like the Irish they pay
their own way, and are " free and indie.
pendent" from the start.
