SHOCKING.

The following is dispatched from San
Francisco under date of June II:
Details are received Of the total de-
struction of the Peruvian ship Don Juan
by fire at sea, supposed to have been set
on fire by coolies entrapped on board at
Macao. The crew abandoned the yes
sci with $50 coolies fastened under the
matches. Five hundred coolies we're
roasted alive. The others escaped when
the matches burned off She was an
American built ship, sold and fitted out
for the coolie trade.
This circumstance may have a very
serious effect on immigrtion. OF course
the news of the roasting alive Of so
many people will go back to their
homes and raise wall. 1t is perfectly
shocking. 1t will put check on coolie
immigration, and should do it. The of.
icers in command Of ship freighted
with so much humanity should owe re
sponsibility to some power that can hold
them to account for the manner in
which they perform their duties. Are
the spectators of the North reopeninl
the slave trade under the guise of cooliC

Mr.. Bowen, member of Congress from
South Carolina, and of loyal proelivi-
ties, as well as an ornament to his party
and, with the single exception of Brig
ham Young, the most married man in
the country, has been convicted by q
criminal court in Washington Of over
much marrying, and sentenced TO pay a
fine of $3.50 and to a term of two years
service to his country in the peniten-
tiary. Can't any one with half an eye
see that this whole thing grew out of the
rebellion, and that the Ku-Klux are at
the bottom Of it2
