To the Editor Oftte WORKISsEAE's ADVOCATE.
Mr.. Editor, permit me again to refer
to q subject upon which l addressed
you communication few weeks ago.
THE CHINESE CooLIE TRADE.
It is surprising to me that subject
Of such great Importance as this is to
the working classes Of the United
States, is looked upon with so much in
difference by those who are in such
eminent danger of loosing all that we
live .or in this world, peace, happiness,
and prosperity. Wight is seldom that
a line is seen upon the subject in the
journals published in the interest of the
lab oring classes, from the pens of the
above named class. Why, are we all
standing idly by with our lips closed,
when ruin is threatening us; we
see almost every day in the papers
where there are fresh arrivals Of these
Coolies in the western and south
western sections of the country; still.
we are inactive, our position in the
society of the civilized world is threat
ened; yes, and the morals of the com
ing generation by the influx of these
Asiatic pagans, with their thousands
of filthy prostitutes, to pollute this the
most beautiful, happiest and freest land
that ever the sun, shone upon. If v e
do not act now to prevent this great
evil Detailing US, the time will come
when we will repent our present apathy
when we will be fellow slaves of these
millions Of bodies who will overrun
country a country that is the pride
and boast ofthe humblest of its citizens.
But it will then be too late to repine
Our children will not be able to point
with pride to the inheritance we left
them, but curse our stupidness. My
fellow workingmen heed the voice Of
one of the most humblest of your class
and act now while there is an oppor
tunlty, and let our Representative anc
Senators see that we take a lively in
terest In averting this great calamity
that is now hanging over this land like
black pail, and preserve our social anC
political position inviolate and sacred
as handed down to us by our fathers
Let every man be a guardian snc
every abode of labor a watchtower, anC
the watch-word be no more Coolies.

SIR,-Your readers will have no
ticed that | have frequently alluded
lately to the distress which prevails
here in certain trades, and as this dis
tress is persistently attributed to causes
which have little or no connection with
it, I may be excused for taking the
matter up here, as it has bearing on
the vexed question Of Trades Union
ism.
Ship buildingIon the Thames is now
particularly slack, and as the ship
builders have always been strong
Trades Unionists, it is asserted in the
broadcast and most direct manner that
the disastrous state of things felt on
the London river is due exclusively TO
the arbitrary and unreasonable conduct
of these men. Mr.. Edwin Ashworth,
OF Bolton, has been urging this very
strongly in the Times, and in the lead
ing columns Of that paper the same
thing is insisted on, with the usual un-
scrupulousness of assertion INDUCED in
by that journal. The statement is thai
the shipbuilding trade of the Thames
has gone to the Clyde, through the
conduct of the unions, whilst the fact
is, that the unions exist on the Clvde

NEW DIRK, Jan. Ii, 1870.
70 Sc Editor Of the woaKueMAu's ADVOCATE:
Please give the following q place in
your paper. Last week some of the
New York Cigar manufacturers came to
the conclusion to reduce the price of
workmanship on cigars. Some of them
were not greatly in favor of a reduc-
ton, but said if their society, society
OF manufactures, which was organized
about a year ago, will approve q re-
duction, they viii also reduce. They
invited q committee consisting Of
Messrs. @. Kuhn, President Of Union
No. 80, and HI. Jacobs, President Of
Union No. Is, and other gentlemen Of
both unions were appointed to wait on
the manufacturers, at the same time the
new ork unions resolved unanimously
not to allow any reduction of prices, and
sooner to quit work. The committee
did prove to the manufacturers the in
justice OF reduction, and that it was
only through the prompt action of the
members of both unions, Is and 90, and
their appointed committee, this great
strike was prevented.
The manufacturers claim, that through
the present tariff, which was reduced
Dy congress year ago, from 50 per
pound and so per cent Gd valorens, to
$3.50 per pound and 25 per cent. od
UGLOTena, is too low to compete with
foreign goods, and this is a known
fact, that the fine quality of Havana
Cigars can be sold cheaper than our
domestic cigars of the same quality, and
particularly now when the price Of gold
Is so low. Both societies, the manu-
facturers' and the workingmens, came to
the conclusion 20 act in unity and
memorable Congress on the present
tariff, and petition for the old tariff of
% per pound and so per cent. ad
V0t0rena, or that Congress should
abolish the tariff entirely on Havana
tobacco, raw material.
The hands ofMr. Squchelberg, which
were out to resist the reduction, they
being the first when the reduction was
and receiving the weekly
allowances of money from the unions,
went to work again on the old rate of
prices after said meeting.
Unions IS and 80, hereby notify all
unions, that committee is at work to
prepare a petition to Congress regard
ing the tariff, a blank will be sent to
them in due time; they are kindly re-
quested to call meeting at receipt of
the blank, indorse the same and send
them Immediately to their respective
member Of Congress. Fraternally
