stress more especially upon the contract
labor system under which they are
imported. The General evidently wishes
to gain the political support of
the trades unions of Massachusetts by
seconding their demand for protection against
cheap Chinese labor. Senator Wilson had
previously voted against Summers amend
ment, thus putting himself on the record on
substantially the same side as Butler.
1t is contrary to the traditional policy of
this country to reject cheap skilled labor from
any quarter, and the only objection made
against the Chinese immigration which has
the slightest real force is that based on the
terms of their labor contracts. 1t may be
well enough to provide by law that
they shall not be of such a character as to
establish a new form of enforced servitude
in our midst, but we see no necessity for
other prohibitory legislation; and however
much demagogues may agitate the Chinese
question, there are many reasons for the be-
lief that hosts of industrious Chinese laborers
would do infinitely more good than harm in
the United States.

The CHINESE AND THE NATURALE
ZATION La VS.

The looming man" from Asia is rapidly
forcing his wsy into American politics. Since
John Chinam6n has extended the base of his
operations from the Pacific to the Atlantic
coast, and more especially since he has in
vaded the sacred soil of Massachusetts,, he
has become more than ever an object of inte-
rest to the aspirants for Congressional and
Senatorial honors. By singular coincidence
Naturalization bill came up for considera-
tion in the United States Senate soon after
the first appearance of an organized
gang of Chinese workmen in the
shoe factories of Massachusetts, and as the
questions connected with their appearance in
that quarter afford a good chance to make
capital or to damage adversaries, the occasion
has already been improved by Sumner, Will
son, and Butler. Sumner, true to his colors,
earnestly advocated the erasement of the
word ''white" from all our naturalization
laws. Expurgated from the Constitution, it
still appears in all the old legislation pro-
yiding for the extension of the privileges of
citizenship to people born on foreign soil;
and it is impossible at present for either
negro or Chinaman, who is not of native
birth, to become citizen. On Saturday last
MIR. Sumner arguments had made so deep
an impression that his amendment was carried
by o small majority, but on Monday this vote
was reconsldered and the word "white" was
retained in the naturalization laws by vote
of more than two to one. This act left the
foreign-born negro as well as the Chinaman
out in the cold, and Southern Senator,
anxious to rescue the former if not the
latter, moved an amendment ''to extend the
naturalization laws to aliens of African nativity
and persons of African descent" which was
carried by vote of 81 to 20; SO that, if the
House concurs in this amendment, the new
dispensation. will provide for the naturaliza-
tion Of Africans, but exclude all other foreign
ers who are not white. Following in the line
of this action, General Butler, at the Fourth of
July celebration at Woodstock, Connecticut,
opened his batteries upon the Chinese, laying

There Is a certain mystery hanging about the con.
duct and disappearance OF the Rev. Mr.. Pearce,
Methodist clergyman Of this place. On Tuesday OF
last week. in seeming good health. he left his home
for Moriches, and after purchasing large trunk at
that place borrowed horse and buggy OF friend
for the purpose Of returning home, which he did.
wednesday he sent his wife to Morlches with the
horse, promising to come after her in the morning
Thursday morning. he not having arrived his wife
feeling worried, started towards home on foot,
expecting to meet him; but she did not, and walked
the entire distance (eght miles alone. On arriving
home she found everything In great disorder and
confusion, trunks and drawers emptied about the
room and all their valuabes missing. During the
day messenger arrived from Rlverhead, stating
that the Rev. Mr. Pearce wished him to say to his
wife that he had received q telegram from Boston
that his father was dead and that he was on his way
thlther, that she must not feel alarmed and that
he would return soon. On inquiry 1t was ascer-
tanned that no such message had been received ut

that Mr.. Pearce had left on the Thursday morning
train for New York. expressing his trunks to Bos.
