The Hon. James Brooks, now in
China, is writing to his paper-the New
York Express series of letters from
the capitol of the Flowery Kingdom.
In his last ne gives some lively gossip
about the heir apparent to the throne,
and the difficulty experienced by his
good mother, the Empress Dowager, in
finding a suitable wife for him. Great
efforts are being made to find wife No.
| for the boy Emperor-and he can
have as many as he pleases, after No. l..
The pretty girls for hundreds and hun
dreds Of miles have been sent up to the
capitol as patterns for an Empress, but
his mother, the Empress Dowager, has
not picked out wife for him. Boys and
girls in China have nothing TO do with
the selection of their own wives. They
seldom see, the husband his wife, till
the day Of marriage. The Emperor even,
has got to take what they give him; but
if No. does not suit or satisfy, No. 2 },

silks, satins and embroideries for some
grand nuptial ceremony, soon to take

THE STATES wORKMEN.
General Forrest Takes Fifty More
COnviets.
From tho NashVille Banner, l2th.l


From the Nashville Banner. 12th.l
Another installment of fifty convicts
was forwarded last evening to General
Forrest, via the Nashville and Decatur
railroad.
A contract has just been closed by the
Penitentiary Commissioners with Nc
Grath q Morgan and p. Scott & Son, to
take effect January 10Th, and to run
until December, 1872, by which they
agree to run sixteen looms in the manu-
facture Of hemp bagging, and to employ
about one hundred and twenty conYicts.
1t is said that in the spinning and hack
ling of hemp the convicts unable to do
hard labor can be proftablY employed.
The sale Of the bagging will be effected
through the cotton firms here. BY this
contract the State will net about forty
eight cents per convict per day, or
seventy eight cents per hand, gross.
There are now one hundred convicts
in the employ Of General Forrest, one
hundred and twenty-seyen at the Sewanee
mines, sixty-three at the Battle Greek
mines, twenty-seyen on the Nashville
and Northwestern railroad, one hundred
and twenty at work under the contract
mentioned above, while about eighty are
employed on the capitol grounds, making
a total of FIVE hundred and seventeen.
These, deducted from seven hundred and
thirty-nine, the total number Of convicts
leaves two hundred and twenty-five, who
are employed under the immediate direc
tion Of the Commissioners
General Forests contract calls for
twenty-five more, so that, if he takes
them, the number will be reduced to one
hundred and ninety-seven, whom the
Commissioners work under their own i'm
mediate supervision, and who cannot
possibly under present engagements, be
spared from the institution.
