Chinese Labor for st. Louis.
The St. Louis Republican SAYS:

We are informed on reliable authOrlty
that about one hundred gentlemen, house
holders of this city. have completed arrange
ments for the introduction of Chinese house
servants into their families. The necessary
negotiations have been contaminated with
the Chinese emigration society in San Fran
cisco, and the first installment of Chinese
for st. Louis will number about three hum
dred Acknowledged sons Of the FlOwery King
dom.
The housekeepers who have joined in this
movement recognize the fact that house
servants are exceedingly scarce, and that
there is vacuum to be filled in this species
of labor without in the least interfering
with any existing class of laborers. They
must have reliable servants for washing,
cooking and other Homework, and they re-
gard the Chinese entirely capable OF I'LL :
ing the void. They have accordingly
agreed with their agents in California to
paw them good wages. certain stipulated
sums and to afford them all necessary pro-
lection for the term Of Years for which they
are employed. On the other hand guaran-
tees of good service are given by the Chi
nese under forfeiture of contract. These
arrangements have been very quietly made;
in short time the Chinese will come i'll
here Just as quietly and at once drop into
the homes that have been provided. for
them. There is no necessity for any stir or
cOmmOtiOn in any department of industry
or labor on their advent in St. Louis, be-
cause they disturb no one, and merely oc-
cupy waste places.

THE SITUATION.

Four hundred thousand Prussian troops
are massed on the eastern bank Of the Saar
river, between the towns of Treves and
Merzig, and three hundred thousand
French troops confront them from the
other side of the water. The Saar is
small stream running from the south
northward and emptying into the Moselle
a short distance above Treves. The troops
must be thickly massed, as the distance
between the points designated is compar-
atively short. Treves, the town on which
the head of the Prussian column rests, is
Prussian, contains population of about
twenty-five or thirty thousand, and is one
of the most ancient settlements in Germa-
ny, having been occupied by the Romans,
some of whose antiquities still remain.
The hills surrounding are planted with
vines, and the valleys TEEN with vegeta-
ton. The aspect Of the country all along
from this town up the banks of the Moselle
and the Saar to Merzig, the base Of the
Prussian column, is Of the most picturesque
character.
The French troops occupy the tongue Of
land between the rivers Moselle and Saar,
having on their west the duchy of Lux
emburg, which is fortified in formidable
manner So far the French troops are on
their own soil, and thus do not violate any
law of neutrality toward Holland by occu-
plying any portion OF Luxembourg, which
belongs to that power.
The conflict looks as if it were coming
off on the banks Of the Saar, and very
soon.

the head Of only twenty men, and now
we have fresh outbreak. The same rea-
son for rioting is alleged as before name
", predominance of colored voters The
ssgrand traditions of these half civilized
white people of North Carolina teach them
that Begro is their inferior, and they
know Of noNbetter way of proving it, and
asserting their claims to superiority than
by driving them away from the polls
beating their women with heavy sticks
and chivalrously shooting them for daring
to entertain and express opinions.
Possibly it may be made to appear IN
the resolutions of some future meeting to
be held at Yanceyville, that Colonel Kirk
and his militia are not necessary; but until
we hear further we must continue in the
belief that little wholesome restraint
will do such people no harm, and may
prove to be the salvation of their intended
victims
