industriously circulating it. The States

Since writing the above we find the
New York Herald discussing the sub
ject of Governor Walkers view of the
Virginia elections. The article sums
up as follows, and shows very plainly
we have stated the facts correctly
This was and is the view Of Governor
Walker. He says he started ont on a
liberal Republican platform, and that
this is the proper name Of his party in
Virginia-lberal Republican that the
Virginians are leaning this way that
democracy hath profited them nothing,
and that they know better than you
can tell them where their real interests
lie. That his party in Virginia is an
independent party that while opposed
to the ultra Radicals it has nothing to
do with the Northern democracy, but
desires to be recognized as identified
with President Grants reconstruction
policy, under the discretionary powers
given him in the laws of Congress. The
new Southern party, then, which has
come into power in Virginia is new
Republican party. 1t has, too, very
fair prospect for the possession Of all
the other Southern States, which will
give it an important balance Of power
in Congress and out of Congress against
the bigoted Radical Republican leaders
of the North. .t. .

HOW THEY TALK

We find the following tissue of false
hoods in Forney's Chronicle. It is said
to have come " from gentleman in
Norfolk" 1t is certain no gentle
man" would write like this
The lovers of the Government in this
State feel under obligations to you for
the noble manner in which you have
rightly represented them in regard to
the late election. The idea of any one
claiming the election of Mr. Walker as
Conservative Republican triumph, is
to us absurd Walker was run by The
straightout opponents Of the Govern
ment. All the old rebel leaders, with
out exception, supported him and what
few Northern men who gave him sup
port were misled by his misrepresenta-
tons, and forced into the ranks by
threats and fears. Since the election

marks; they state they hoodwinked
the conservative element, who were in
favor of the Republican party, and that
now they will run the State government
as Il they had confederacy, or as they
did before the war. Open threats are
made against every white man who vo-
ted for Wells, and numbers are afraid
to acknowledge that they did SO. Hun.
dreds of colored men were discharged
as soon as it was learned that they vo-
ted for Wells, and the poor men are
wandering the streets and roads with no
hopes of work. The few white Repub-
licans are too poor to give them much
assistance. The Northern men and ma
tive white men who voted for Wells,
have all been told that they must leave
the city and State. Had the colored
men been permitted to vote without in
timidation, Wells would have been cleo
ted by 10000 majority.

THE CHINESE LABOR CONVEN.
TTnN

The Chinese Labor Convention met
Wednesday morning. The attendance
was large Reports were submitted
from the committee favoring Joint
stock emigration society, with officers
at the principal Southern cities; from
the Emigration Committee prom ising
welcome and protection to all emigrants
from China and elsewhere, and from
the Transportation Committee stating
that emigrants can be brought to Mem
phis, in lots Of fifty and over, from the
Pacific States by rail for fifty dollars
each, and from Hong Kong to San
Francisco from eighty dollars to $500
in gold.
Tyekem Orr, Chinalnan, who h as
been two years in this country and is
now residing in Louisiana, addressed
the convention, He stated that of the
10000 Chinese now in the West Indies
among many much distress prevails,
because they were not selected with
proper care as to effective dock hands
aborers and artisans. Many twere
criminals, who have been sent on plan
tations to work at labor they are not
familiar with. AgricuIturists can
easily be procured through proper
agents from the interior of China. In
Cuba they are paid 81 per month.
Farm hands are paid $1S to 800 per
year in China, where living is so cheap
that $50 pounds of rice cost So Women
work in the fields of China. Only city
women have small feet. About one in
ten are lovers of strong drink, but COM
paratlvely few are opium eaters. 1t is
q luxury that only the rich and city
people can afford to indulge in. Of ff-
ty now living in Donald only one is
whisky lover. They are easily man
aged, being patient, industrious, docile,
traotable and obedient. The products
of China are in many ways similar TO
those in the Southern States, and the
Chinese would soon become successful
workers of the Southern States,
MIR. Koopmanshoop arrived at noon
and addressed the Convention. lie
stated that his house has brought 8 900
Chinese to California, where go 900 are
now engaged as mechanics and in rail-
road works. They are paid from 80
to 81, 10 per day, in gold, as laborers
They can be induced to come from San
Francisco here at twenty dollars per
month, but can be obtained much cheap
er in China, and under five years
contract could be had for ten or twelve
dollars per month, He said they are
not at all reliable unless security is ex-
acted, and will take service with Others
If higher wages are offered.

Doctor Pardon, a member of the

A few days ago two strangers entered
the Seamen's Bank for Savings in New

contained $4,000 in bonds and stock.
Subsequently the box, with over $25, 900
of bonds not negotiable, was found in
the entry of private dwelling, where
the thieves had pla ced it.

Secretary Boutwell, could not see it in

THE DIRECT LAND TAX AT THE
S0TTTH


There is some talk Of enforcing the
collection of the direct land tax in the
South. The Southern States share of
of this tax-which amounted to twenty
millions among all the States six
millions; of this sum only about three
millions has been paid into the Treasu-
ry from the Southern States. 1t will
be remembered that when this amount
had been collected President johnson
sent message to Congress setting forth
that in view of the poverty produced
in the South by the war it would in
many instances be ruinous to that Sec
ton to enforce the collection OF the tax
at that time, and recommending that it
be suspended for some time, so as to al
low the industrial interests of the South
to recuperate, 1t is stated that the linn
it OF the suspension fixed by Congress
has now passed, and the law providing
for the levying and collection OF the tax
comes into full force again. 1t is argued
by those who urge this proceeding that
the industries of the South have great
ly improved in the interim, that the
corps are abundant and that ther e il no
longer any excuse for delay on the score
of poverty. Whether the Secretary of
the Treasury will act upon the advice
rendered him in this matter remains to
be seen. .r...# a.--.

formerly Holden's paper and still his

election, takes occasion to describe the
political issues developed at the South,
saying "The battles in the South are
heDceforth to be fought between the
Radicals and the Liberals between
prescription and partial suffrage on the
one side and universal suffrage and gem
eral amnesty upon the other. Such
will be the division of parties and the
issues in the South for the next four
years. After that new issues NAV
arise, new parties spring up and new
names be given but from now until
the next four years have expired the
issue is to be between Radicalsm and
