Chinese LabOrers.

The Louisiana Sugar Bo,Ol of a recent date contains a communication from planter at Irish Bend, Parish of St. Mary, who during the last eight months has had twenty-six Chinamen at work for him on his sugar plantation he infinite ly and for every reason prefers them to negroes. In November and December last they planted forty arpents of cane for him, and although at first they were awkward workmen yet in 8 wonderfully short time they improved so greatly as to be better even than his old hands, who, with three exceptions, became dis gusted and ran away at the end of the year. As ploughme1 the Chinese are admirable, and take good care of their beasts, never beating or abusing them. They are intelligent and honest; every one of them can read and write in his own language, and so, when payday comes, if any of them becomes indebted more than his wages amount to he mere ly sends up his book to have 1t posted, and all is right This planter pays them $13 for twenty six days work, retaining $3 until the end of the contract {; their rations, fifteen pounds of pork and fifty pounds of rice for thirty days. The la- borers are orderly, cheerful, and cleanly all of the twenty-five in two houses, twenty feet wide by forty long, and all their cooking and eating is done in an adioiring house. If the experience of other planters shall be simialr to that of this correspondent the negro's occupa- tion in the South will soon be gone.

Now AND THEN.-The Chicago Repub- ican thus contrasts the Indian of Coop CTS novels and the Indian of to-day:

Now he swears at the baggage-man because he doesn't check his carpet-bag in hur- ", shakes hands with the conductor, borrows chaw from the brakeman, and, reclining upon two seats, masticates pea nuts and looks at the picture papers, as the express bears him to the portal of the west wind, of the northwest wind, Keewavdin 'n Lt-a |.

BUYING TowN. -Olney, H., is very thriving little city of 5000 inhabitants. Among the legal gentlemen, MT. Will son shines quite prominently, at least since his recent speculations. This per son discovered while since, that by some accident the quarter section on which now stands the new $65, ,000 school house, and many of the most valuable business blocks and residences of the city, had never been entered at the gen. eral land office. To preempt the ordi- nary way would require thirty days mo- tice, which didn't meet Wilson's notions.
 He got hold of lot of scrip issued by Congress in the remote past to some one who had been unlucky enough to lose his warrants. This scrip was good for any land that had been surveyed whether subject to entry or not Thus armed, Wilson had no difficulty in getting out his patent, and now owns the town. The Olneyites have gone to law with him. But he smiles softly at their rage.
