lr THE CHINESE are "the most frugal, in
"dustrious and ingenious people on the face
:" of the earth, as Senator Casserly says, the
question arises what is to become of the
Americans. Upon the same principle and
by the same methods, which were employed
to get us the possession of this country from
its original occupants, the Cinnamon may
set in to drive us out of it. Our only advan-
tage over the Indians was our superior in
dusiry, and ingenuity. If the Chinese, then,
are greater than we in those qualities, they
will probably insist on buying our land for
some beads and whskcy, and drive us of,
If We show any hesiiancy about selling. As
for christianity, ii is well known that SO far
as our behavior TO the Indians is concerned,
both they and the Chinese arc by far the
best examples Of christian precepis; we
have no case ON that point.

COOPERATIVE no UsEKEEPING

Mrs. Charles p. Pierce, author of the cele-
brated series of articles under the above
title, published in the atlantic Monthly,
has taken measures to put her theories into
practice, and "Co-operative Housekeeping
Association has been formed in Cambridge,
Massachusetts. We have just read an ad-
dress delivered by Mrs Pierce in explanation
of her plan, acknowledge its plausibllty,
and are more than half convinced of its
practicability.
This "pian" is simply to regard two at
least of the housekeeping arts-cooking and
washing-as manufactures, and to apply to
them the principle of cooperation which
has been SO full of beneficial results to all
who have given it fair trial. An association
ofat least twenty-five families are to unite in
maintaining one immense kitchen and laun-
dry. For the former provisions are to be
bought at wholesale, and to be prepared for
the table by skillful cooks, and the meals
sold and delivered to members of the Asso-
citation ready for the table. Provisions can
thus be obtained more cheaply, fewer cooks
will be required, and infinitely less fuel be
used. At the same time better cooks can be
employed, and better and fresher provisions
be secured. The sales of meals are to be all
for cash and the profits are to be divided
amongst the purchasers in proportion to
their purchases. In the laundry the i'm
proved apparatus now common in all large
laundries is to be used, and the work can
thus be done more cheaply and better than
by the common method.
1t will be seen that 1t is thus proposed to
remove at once from our homes the kitchen,
and with 1t all the dirt, grease, and odors
of boiling vegetables and Of soapsuds, in
scparably associated in our minds with it:
SIT were consummation most devoutly to
be wished" and we are glad the Cambridge
ladies are to try the experiment.
There is another feature of the movement
however which strikes our mind favorably,
and that is, that it promises to give us good
feod properly aud skillfully prepared. 1t is
notorious fact that the American people,
as whole, live more expensively and at the
same time more poorly, so far as their tables
are concerned, than any other people in the
world, aud the reason is that our cooking is
done without half the skill, intelligence, or
training that we require of those who make
our shoes and our clothing. We would not
contract for the building of dog house with
a carpenter who had served so little time at
his business as has the cook to whom we un-
hcsitatingly commit our stomachs veal or
woe Few private families can afford to pay
good cook the price he Or she is worth and
so we get 1t done as best we can. This Mrs.
Peirce's system proposes to remedy, and If
it succeeds she will be q benetactor of her
race, and generations yet unborn will call
her blessed We shall watch tue oSperlv

IT is NOT OFTEN that SO handsome be-
quest as that Of DR.. Rush to the Philadel-
phia Library is rejected, yet il Is by no
means certain whether, in this case, it
would not be the best policy for the compa-
ny to decline it. The city correspondent OF
the Germantown Telegraph says:-
This bequest is trammeled by so many
queer conditions that under any circumstan-
ces ii will he like the elephant prize man
drew In lottery. But to banish the splen-
did collection Of books of this great Library
(now 50 centrally located and so open free to
all who wish to consult it,) to place so re-
mote us Broad and Christian streets where
it would be out of the reach Of the public,
with large building and no adequate funds
Tor expenses, seems m0nstrous. The Libra
ry as il stands is not indebted to DR.. Rush
or the Rldgeway family for anything at ALL
Founded by the ilustrious Franklin, its
first great legacy of 10000 scientific vol
umes was from James Logan, secretary of
William Penn, who left 1t also six hundred
acres acres of valuable land in Bucks county
which IL still holds. 1t has a property ut
Fifth aud Library streets worth over $780,
900, and a building fund of over see. QUO all
independently Of the Rush bequest. Its lit
erary stores are the richest on the continent,
and it Is proposed to hand all of these over
to become mere monument of Dr. Rush
and his wife. There is no earthly occasion
for the company to accept of this bequest,
and the rejection of it will be sure to bring
it fame and prosperity. The matter stands
over until October to await the report of a
committee, which hope will be for rejec-

Bishop Asbury's Watch.

A correspondent of the New York Methodist,
writing from this city under date of June 2sth,
says -
While on visit to Dover, DEL, few days
since, We were shown a large sill yer watch,
once the property of Bishop Asbury. On the
outer case are his initials, "F. A." doubtless,
from their appearance, cut with a pocket-kniie
century ago.
Between the cases in the back of the watch is
receipt on parchment which reads as follows:
philadelphia, June list, 176s: F. Asbury
paidc TO J. Hartzrine for one silver watche SOW
ereigns' Other bills read as follows: " Penn's
Treaty. On this Pcnh is represented as making
presents TO the Indians. ~. Menzies, corner OF
Front and Spruce streets, Philadelphia, April
23d. 1881.
Bishop Asbury sold the watch to gentleman
in SUSSEX county, DEL, in 1888, to whom he gave
license to preach. This is on parchment with
the Bishops seal affixed. These articles have
been heirlooms of the family for many years. and
are now in the possession of I. c. West, Esq, of

AFFAIRS IN PARIS are just like they used
to he previous to revolution" There
has been long period of excitement the
party opposed to the government has steadi-
ly gathered strength and now demand is
made for ''reforms." 1t seems, however,
that Napoleon, unlike Louis XVI, and his
rather less unfortunate successors, Louis
XVIII. Charles Y, and Louis Philippe, is
not oaly disposed to make concessions, but
will do it in time TO appease the people. His
chief minister, NJ. Rouhcr, in the Corps
Legisatif, on, Thursday, admitted that a
ministerial crisis" had come, and the Paris
papers last evening announce the rcsigna-
tion of the ministers. 1t is believed Rouher
has Leen commissioned to form new Cabi-
net, which will include four members of
the Thiers party, who have heretofore been
the stout opponents of the Emperor.

U. s. SENATOR Casserly, of California de-
clares the immigration of Chinese must be
stopped. They compete with common Ia
borcrs to day, but tomorrow they will be in
contact with skilled workmen, "for they are
"ihe most frugal, Industrious, and ingenious
''pcople on the face of the Earth" There
fore they must not come This seems like
queer doctrine, somehow, and the New
York Tribune, turns sharp corner on it,
thus -
1t this be sound, logical craftsmanship,
then the Chinese have only to become idle,
dissoluie, clumsy and rapacious, to render
them valuable acquisitions TO rising State.
Let them combine to ask more for their
work than others do, or to do less for the
money they receive, and they will be well
coined to our soil and to Democratic fellow
ship.

PEACHES AT MILFoRp-SALE OF CRors.-The
Mutual Friend says "rhe peach fever in Milford
and vicinity is beginning TO ruge pretty exten-
sively. Several persons from New York and
Philadelphia have visited Milford and vicinity and
have purchased considerable lot OF fruit. Some
have purchased orchards Jumped, and others have
given so much basket the orchard through, de-
livered ut the Depot. General A. 7. A. Torbcrt
sold his large orchard last week to parties iu New
York on private terms. He sold the orchard
Jumped, but agreed to pick the fruit and deliver
1t at the Depot. We have heard the sale was
between Fix aud ten thousand dollars. 1t is sup
posed that this orchard will have twenty or
twenty-five thousand baskets At least.
"Wc know of some parties that have sold their
peaches at forty cents basket, delivered at the
Depot, and some at n little higher figure. Fears
are entertained by some in this vicinity that the
diy weather that we are having now will affect
the growth OF the peaches and will cause prob

STRAWBERRY SmIPMENTs.--Our strawberry
growers this year, as last, shipped nearly all their
fruit from Brenford Station, they having associ.
