A Romantic Marriage,

The Figaro relates hefollowins ro mantle
story: 1.-The Prince of Schleswig Holstein,
on his return from scientific voyage,
which had lasted for several years, found
his library in state of disorder. He asked
his steward to recommend some one who
could arrange it. and the latter replied that
the only person he was acquainted with was
young lady who acted as companion TO his
wife. This young person. Mile. Carmelita
Essemblart, is the daughter of merchant
at Calcutta, who was formerly in wealty cir.
cumstances, but on his meeting with re-
verse of fortune the children were obliged
to earn their own living, and the young lady
in question had even appeared on the stage.
She accepted the proposals made to her. and
on her entering upon her duties the prince
found her so well educated and 80 intelligent
that he was quite charmed, and at last made
her an offer of marriage. The union is to
take place in a few days. and the bride.
groom has applied to the King Of Prussia
for permission to lay aside his princely rank
and assume the title of Count de Boer, so
the marriage will not be a morganatic one.

Chinese LabOrers.

Mr.. Dennett, of the Planters Banner, is
not an advocate of Chinese labor. To the
last number of his paper lie writes from this
city:
One hundred and forty-one Chinese
laborers are daily expected at the Millaudon
plantation, to labor as field hands. They
are part of the Pacific Railroad gang, and
are said to be the best that could be obtained
in California. So we will see what the best
pigtais will do. This gang from California,
and the force on the Lafourche, imported
stock from China, to be worked by Mr.. John
Williams on his plantation, will give the
people chance to know what Chinese labor
is. The gang that proved go miserable
failure on the Kittredge plantation were
from Cuba; and the friends of this kind of
labor contend they were refuse Coolies
which Cubsns did not want. We think
those who are trying this Chinese labor are
engaging in it with many misgiviDgs in
regard to it's results. These yellow men all
have to learn to plow and manage mules.
That is no small job to start with. And
then it costs mint OF money to bring them
here. But they will clean out all the rats,
puppies and kittens without any instruc.
tions in regard to catching and cooking.
We will see what we will see.

The editor of the Planters Banner, in a
letter from this city. says: =,
In conversation with an intelligent Ger
man Of this place, he informed me that
planters have made great mistake in en-
ployiDg Germans without families. He
says if they will put up houses on fifty or
hundred acre lots, and lease them to Ger
man families on shares, they can get mul.
tisudes of such laborers; that with pros
pect OF making money to get homes of their
own. their women and children will do
much field work. He thinks peasant fami-
lies from Bohemia, such as have been
raised to cultivate the soil, and know no
other occupation. would be preferable to
any other. He says if homes are provided
for them, and contracts made through a
man in whom they have confidence, there
would be no trouble in getting all the fami-
lies wanted. They wish to know before.
