THE CHINESE CoMINa.-From the
Galveston Civilian of the 18th, we
get the following particulars of the
approach Of 5000 Chinese that will
soon arrive in Galveston, if they
have not already. Two thousand
others will soon follow, and they
are on their way and they will pro-
ceed to Calvert, Texas. for work on
the Pacific road. Following them
will be store with Chinese goods,
and the Civilian gives us an invoice
of some of the articles. They are
funny, John Chinaman is funny
fellow ; bat he will soon make the
dirt fly in our State-and the wool
too. John works, and the weather
is not "too cold )" or "too hot" or
"too wet" for him. You will not
have to build shed for him to work
under. He will not lay in the
shade three hours in the middle of
the day, in cotton picking time.'
Registration, elections and Loyal
Leagues, disturb not John. He
works and eats his own rats. We
hail Pig-tail John. So farewell to
Pompey and Dinah.-[S. A. Herald.
The flow Of emigration from the
Carolinas and Alabama, Texss-ward
continues with increasing volume.
We hear that eleven hundred wag-
ons passed Shreveport a few days
ago, carrying families, supplies, ag;
ricultural implements, and all the
materials to open new farms in the
great empire State Of the South.
Three or four hundred of these
emigrants are brought over daily
by Morgan's Mobile line AT this
rate Toxas will soon become the
most populous and powerful of the
Southern States. 1t is Il consola-
ton to know that there is little
danger of starvation or even suffer
ing in the new State. The millions
of cattle which roam its praries will
afford ample nourishment to the
hardy settlers until they get their
farms into a solfsupporting condi-
tion.-[New Orleans Times.

Immigrants are flowing into Tex
as at every point. On last Monday
so many arrived at Galveston that
250 could not secure transportation
TO the interior. Every ferryman
on the Sabine river is busy in land
ing the sturdy cons Of toll from
/ other 5tates, on our shores. Every
avenue upon our northern frontier
is alive with the pop Of the emf
