THE CHINEsE.-A writer in the New I ork
Star, who knows the Chinese well, thus
daguerreotypes them:
81 have lived nearly two decades in Cal
ifornia, and know of the people of whom /
write. They are barbarous, cruel, thievish,
unreliable, and welded to nameless prac-
tees that to mention is sufficient to make
the flesh creep. Their morality is nothing,
unless you can call abominable vices mega
lively so. Every hen-roost and clothes.line
in Californ;. has to he guarded against their
depredations. They Systematically coin and
issue counterfeit money! business at
which they are quite adopts. The few Wo-
men that leave China are bought and sold
rs so many sheep in the shambles. Every
China woman in California is prostitute,
and they spread among the young people
where they reside every form of vice, and,
besides. maladies of the most horrible and
incurable character"
These would be desirable acquisitions in
deed

| REGISTER OF THE CoNFEDERATE DEAD AT
HoLLYwooD.-We have before rs the Regis
ter Of the Confederate Dead Inferred in
Hollywood Cemetery. Published by Gary,
| Clemmitt & Jones. Richmond. 1859. Its
work for which the southern public has
long been anxiously looking. They have
expected much, and will not be disap-
pointed. Exhibiting remarkable industry
and research, wonderfully accurate in detail,
aud geographically faultless and beautiful,
the Register is not only invaluable to the
| friends of the dead heroes who sleep in
Hollywood, but is also a lasting monument
| to the patriotism and devotion of the ladies
of the Memorial Association under whose
auspices it Is issued.
| The book is elegantly printed on tinted
paper, with 116 octave pages. The title-page
is illustrated by a faithful picture Of the
granite pile now being erected to the men,
ory OF the Confederate dead in Hollywood.
There is also an accurate and beautifully
engraved map Of the soldiers section, pre-
pared by the skilled hand of Captain DIM
mock, the architect, and Autographed by
| Ludwig Of Richmond. A modest preface
contains some account Of the work accom-
plished and contemplated by the Associa-
| tion, and is followed by list Of the officers
and managers, with the constitution of the
| Association.
| The body Of the work contains, in paral-
| lei columns, the names OF the dead, the COM
pauv, regiment. or battalion, to which they
were attached, the date of death, designa-
ton o.; the place of interment, and Gre
marks There is mournful array OF
blanks in every one of these columns, but
| they are by no means as numerous as might
have been expected in q catalogue OF thou
sands Of dead buried in the midst of excite
ment at the very seat Of war. Mistakes may
have occurred, too, in the spelling of names,
or in the designation OF company, regiment,
or State, but we must express the belief
that these arc fewer than can be found il
any other record of the kind, having our
selves been witnesses from time to time of
the labor bestowed upon It, and the many
revisiOns made by the ladies in preparing
the work Tor the press.
| The Register is sold at fifty cents copy
| (by mail sixty centS), price actually below
cost. It il offered thus low because the AS
sociaiion is anxious to place it within the
reach Of all who may have friends buried
in their scldcrs' section, and in this way
secure the principal object Of the publica-
ton. The principal booksellers in Rich
mond and throughout the South will have
the book for sale. 1t may be well to add,
TO avoid apprehension, that the Regis
ter does not include the names of those
| inferred in private sections, rs they are not
under the care of the Hollywood Memorial
Association.
Our copy of the Register is furnished by
Mrs. T. u. Brown, the secretary of the
Association, with whom its preparation has
| been Il labor Of love, and to whom the Asso.
ciation is greatly indebted for her mtiring
efforts, which have contributed largely to

SKIFr & GAYLoED's MINsTRELs.-The
performances Of this celebrated company
1t the Theatre have been attended by large
and select audiences, and have given great
satisfaction to the public. They have Il
good orchestra, a tine quintette, several eX-
celont solo voices, and some Of the funniest
negro actors we have ever seen. The pano-
rama, ut the conclusion, is well worth see
ing, and could be enjoyed by any one but
for the rowdyism of badly-raised young
boys and foolish young men. This has been
painfully apparent on both nights Of the
performance, and we trust that the police
arrangements Of the Theatre will be so i'm
proved that I'll sorts Of rowdyism may be
promptly checked. It is unnecessary and
disgusting, and should be stopped.

The Virginia United States Senators.

The publication Of the card Of Messrs.
Rives and Paxton giving the Presidents
views on the question Of the Virginia sena-
torship has created quite u stir among the
friends OF General Williams, who say that
the President has not been truly repre-
sented, and it is not unlikely, therefore,
that they will also publish card giving
their version Of the true state Of the case.
Other parties, who arc neither for Williams
nor Sharpe, think the published card shows
an unwarrantablc attempt to interfere in
Virginia State politics, and predict that the
friends of both aSpirants have been entirely
too Jealous, and have done their fnvorites
great harm. - Washington letter-Ba!t'i"ore

The National IrstelHgencer breaks ground
against the movement for the Introduction
Of Chinese laborers into this country, and
quotes Hon. GEORGE II. PENDLEToN as fol-
lows:
"But the Chinese will give us cheap labor.
Cheap human labor ! / despise the word.
1t signifies crime and shame. 1t signifies
squalor, reputation, ignorance, vice. Are
not laborers men; our fellow-men! They
have bodies to clothe and stomachs to feed,
and minds to educate and spirits to elevate,
and old age to provide for? They have
homes which they love, and wives whom
they cherish, and children whom they hope
to make worthy citizcns-the honest fathers
and the viltuous mothers Of q succeeding
generation. Labor is too cheap now.
Labor does not receive its just reward"
