Lastly, we have reserved our strawberries

undertaken by Mr.. Seward, late Secretary of
State, and party. They were at Chicago yes

by the Pacific Railroad, for San Francisco
thence up the Pacific coast to Sitka, and an
inspection of Mr.. Stewards white elephant,
called Alaska-the main idea-thence across
the Pacific, touching the Sandwich Islands, to
China and Japan; thence to Australia, and so
on, by the Indian Ocean, to Bombay; thence
to the Red Sea and the Suez Canal to Egypt,
and thence, by way of the Mediterranean,
homeward bound. This trip, it is calculated,
may be made upon six months margin of
time, and it is thought that in writing 1t up

A Card from the Mayor of Southampton.
We publish elsewhere to-day card from
the Mayor of Southampton, in which he declares
that he has nothing to do with the political
bearings Of the change in the consulate there,
nor with the relative qualifications of Captain
Britton and Mr.. William Thompson. He
Indignantly repels, in the name of the
people of Southampton, the insult offered to
them by the unfounded accusations and SLAM
derous falsehoods Of the correspondent of a
New York journal which is notorious for be-
traying it's own selfish and malevolent motives
by reckless aspersions against individuals and
whole communities. Mayor Perkins positively
contradicts and disproves certain statements
of the correspondent in question, the personal
attack on Consul Thompson we lately took
occasion to expose. The Mayor declares that,
notwithstanding the diversity of opinion exist
ing at the time in Southampton and in every
other British community as well as in the
United States, with respect to the character
of the great civil conflict ''now, happily for
America aud for the whole world, to be remem-
bered only as thing of the past, !" it is simply
t'a gratuitous and an exaggerated aspersion
to say that the town ran over with rebel SYM
pathies." He alludes to the magnificent
hospitalities extended by the municipality Of
Southampton to the admirals of the various
squadrons which have occasionally visited its
waters and to other recognized representatives
Of the American government and people as
indisputable proof of the breadth and thorough
ness Of sympathy Of the people of Southamp-
ton with the citizens of the States-a sympathy
Honorable alike to those who have evinced
and to those who have evoked 1t. The card Of
The Mayor of Southampton may be welcomed as
another of many gratifying signs of the new
era ofinternational friendship between England
and America inaugurated by the triumphant
Termination of the war between two great sec
tions of our republic.
The New York herald., 1869-06-12
The Chinese.

In communication published in the HERALD
yesterday the ground was taken that the
American people should not encourage the
immigration Of Chinese, but should rather
discourage it. Among other reasons given
were that the Chinese came here not to settle,
but to ''drain the land of its wealth" and go
home; that they are regarded as a nuisance
by the people in California; that they say
their prayers to ''mean-looking idols;" that
they are Industrious and live on very little
that they work at everything and are content
with very little pay. We do not see the force
OF these reasons. We are not afraid that John
Chinaman will ''drain the land of its wealth"
Part of the wealth of the land is the labor he
does here, and he cannot take that away. If
he does the labor cheaply he will, Of course,
take away all the less money. AS to his
living on very little, it is because he was
brought up to it in China. He will get in the
habit Of eating more In this country If we
have patience. AS to his devotions, we, as
the friend of true religion, are glad that he
says bis prayers to anything. If his idols are
now ''moan looking" we can only hope that
when he becomes half Yankee he will have q
better taste in art; but the architecture Of some
OF our own churches is against that hope. As
for the Chinaman not coming here to settle, we
can but say, let him go when he wants to. II
he is such poor material our correspondent
ought TO be glad to get rid Of him.
