English View Of the Chinese.

The London Times devotes a leading ed
itorlal to Chinese emigration to America
1t refers to the mobblCg OF the emigrants
In California, and Gays 1t recalls the aglta-
ton OF the Australian colonies some six
years ago on the same subject. The inhab-
itants of Victoria manifested the same dis
like of the Cinnamon. Legislation ulti-
mately assumed the form of an import tiu-
ty, but it was seriously proposed to make
the importation of Chinese into the colony
criminal Offense, and while their further
immigration was to be prohibited under
severe penalties, active measures were to
be taken to send back to their native land
those who had crept in unawares to con-
taminate the Australian soil. The expert
ence of Victoria seemed to prove that the
reason of the aversion manifested to them,
that they would underhid the white labor
ers, had some foundation in truth. Their
economy is said to be marvellous. It is
said that they would settle down in Victo-
ria on digging abandoned rs hopeIessly
England, and, without discovering any new
veins, contrive to live comfortably on the
produce they extracted from it, a stream
washing which had been washed over and
over again until no glittering point re-
NAMED would be undertaken by them, and
their microscopic acuteness would realize
wealth of metal. The Times says that
{" alone among the races of the world they
confront the Engishman, and produce as
much work with less pay" Inheriting a
civilization more icient and economic
methods more perfect than the European
can boast, but destitute of that strength
and toughness of moral fibre which sup
ports authority, the Chinese may be vel
coined as assistants in colonization {; they
need not be feared as the dominating race
of the future. -Balt. San.

ErOSDectz Of the Crnns

The Washington correspondent Of the
Newark On. j. l. certiser writes from the
August reports on the growing crops, re-
ceived at the Department of Agriculture.
1t appears that New Jersey, Pennsylvania
and Delaware, in the East West Virginia,
Kansas and Nebraska, in the West, and
Arkansas, Alabama, Louisiana, Florida
and Texas, in the South, are the only
States which claim an average or more, in
condition, of the corn crop, as compared
with the same date last year, with a slight
iy increased acreage in New Jersey and
Pennsylvania, six per cent. increase in Ne
hraska and West Virginia, thirty per cent
IN Kansas, seven per cent. in Texas, and
ten per cent. in Florida, and somewhat de.
creased acreage in Arkansas, Louisiana and
Delaware.
