Don't Like Negroes.

A Washington correspondent Of the
New York Herald says: Information
has been received there from Hayti to the
effect that the government aud people of
that island arc highly indignant at the
appointment Of . negro to represent the
Government Of the United States at that
court. 1t appears that the aristocratic
negroes Of uayti look down with con.
tempt upon their sable brethren Of this
country, and regard the action Of our
government in appointing negro minis.
ter as to say, the least, sighting Of them,
If not an insult. The feeling 10 Hayti on
this subject seems to be based upon the
idea that . negro was given the place be.
cause . white man could not be found
who would take il. All the other na.
tions, they say, had white men accredited
to their courts, with the exception Of
Hayti and Liberia, both negro govern.
ments, and nobody but negroes would
take these places. The thing is regarded
a. . good joke at the State Department
and 10 government circles generally.

The CeiestIsIs-Chinese Emigration
90 the Uafssd States - what IL
ThouEhs OF ft In China.


We are glad to see by the last Pacific mail
papers that In every part OF the United
States the question OF Chinese emigration Is
being earnestly DISGUISE and that our fell
w.couutrymen are already clearing their
minds from their hazy notions OF this em-
pire. They have pricked the gigantic bubble
which Mr.. Burlingame blew, In the rainbow
tints Of which there was no more picture
Of China than there Is on the face OF " will
low pattern" plate. They decline to see on
the eastern shore Of the Pacific q nation of
educated philosophers, under tho sway Of q
paternal emperor; but, what is more to the
| purpose, they see millions OF Industrious
men, In whose hands Is the key to the great
problem of cheap labor In America. With
practical men decision soon follows discus.
| sion, aud we may be sure that the Southern
planters and the capitalists of the newly
opened West will not be long In supplying
their wants by organized emigration from
| China.
| Itis rumored that the Pacific Mail Steam,
| ship Company will aid and encourage thi'
new passenger traffic by an early Increase 1t
their steam line. Surprising them merely t
employ their spare vessels, II would be pos
sible to have au extra steamer every month
which would DO sufficient for short time
But the labor demand In the United States |:
so multifarlous that II must soon cause au
advance along the whole line" Of China
The province Of Kwantung will continue tG
send men suited for our mines and railroads
and for such other employments as demand
"A certain amount of adventure and hardi'
hood. But for the Southern plantations and
for the grain fields OF the Northwest il
seems probable that the best laborcrs will be
found among the quiet and doctle pcasantry
who iuhahlt the lower valleys Of the Yang
tsZe and the IIoangho. The mountainou.
province of Shantung Is also known to con
tain superhuous population, unable to sub
sst OIL the soil, forbidden to delve under !
for mineral wealth; many from there Nigh
be induced to emigrate to America, instea'
of to Manchuria, where the experiment o.
settling has been tried with indifferent sue
cess.
The subject Is not without grave diflcul
ties. Much will depend upon the persona
character Of the subordinate agents EN-
/ ploycd to engage the coolies In China, mucl
on the honesty with which they comply will
our emigration laws. Any system, based OF
contracts for long service, signed In China
Ia liable to a thousand abuses, and unles
checked by rigid enforcement OF law, de
generates into virtual slave trade. A
starving coole will resign his blrthright n
readily as Esau, and any attempt by emigra
ton agents to act the part OF Jacob mus
result In disappointment to those who arr
ultimately TO have the coolies services
- Much also will depend on the laws whicl
/ the different States may make regarding til
l., Chnesci whether the latter are to be pro
s tccted from the opposition OF rival laboreri
d or whether they are to be weighted by socis
4 or legal disabilities. Shanghai Neps Lstte

A common fault Is to use too coarse W God
for kindling, and too much OF It. This, while
II generally succeeds In lighting the coal,
leaves q bed Of ashes below the coal which
interferes with the draught unless raked out,
an operation which always retards the COM
bustion of iguited coal. The wood should
be Of some rapidly burning variety which
gives a quick and high heat, and should be
split fine. 1t should be so placed that the
coal will remain on the top Of II, and not
fall through the CRATE, leaving the kindling
on the top Of any part Of the coal. The
amount Of kindling wood required depends
much upon the size Of the coal. A common
mistake Ia to use too large sized coal. A
good rule, where stoves or furnaces have
good draught, Is to use coal as small as can
be used without Inconvenience from Its slft-
ing too freely through the CRATE.
Crates should have their bars closely set
| for stoves that are cleaned out daily, and
have fires lighted In them each morning,
while those which are intended to have fires
kept In them continuously for days or weeks
will not admit Of fine CRATES, on account OF
the accumulation OF ashes and small "clink-
ers." There Is much difference In coal In
regard to the formation OF clinkcrs. These
are nothing but vitrihed, or partially yitri-
fed, earthly matters, and only can form
when high heat lie maintained; they are
apt to be troublesome when there Is too
great draught. A coal stove or furnace
should be so constructed that Its draught
eau be perfectly controlled. The bottom
draught should admit OF being closed air
tight, as nearly as Is possible to make 1t,
and there ought always to be provision made
for a top draught. II, however, the draught
of q chimney should be so strong that air In
too great quantities Is drawn In at the bot.
tom when the hampers are closed, damper
in the pipe which will close 1t partially must
be employed, though in sluggish chlmneys
! such damper Is apt to force the gases OF
combustion into the room, and therefore II
/ ought always to be avoided when possible
! The practice Of putting ashes on top Of 0
!. IRE to Keep 1t, Is very productive OF clinkcrs
! although 1t answers the purpose very wei
! In other respects. Damp coal screenings ART
better, and may be economically burned IL
} this manner. II coal tire gets very low
the quickest way to extinguish 1t Is to rake
1t at the bottom. To preserve a fire undci
, such circumstances, q little coal should bC
placed on the fire, and when 1t has caught
more be added, and the raking deferred unit
! Ii has got well ignjted. When the fire
bricks have become burdcned with clinker
J which have fused and adhered, they may bt
cleaned by throwing oyster or clam she'll
into the fire box when the fire is very hot
and allowing the fire to go out. The clink
ers will generally cleave of without the us
of much force the next morning. From TIVE
, quarts to one half peck will be suflicien
for most stoves, and the operation can be re
pcated II some of the clinkcrs still adhere
