The C0Olie.

Some of the people of Pittsburg have pe-
ttioned Congress to forbid the importation
of Coolies. on the ground that they belong
to debasei race, and that they tend '.to de.
grade Christian community The same
papefs that bring this news tell of the incon-
ceivable horrors suffered by Coolies on their
passage from Macao to America In one case
over gu per cent. died from the cruelties in
nicted during the voyage. More sthan eight
hundred were thrown into the sea during the
passage, the victims of bad air, hunger and
repeated foggings. They must, indeed, be a
depased race if their presence tends to de
grade the Christian community whose agents
Kill the greater part of them on their ,ay TO
this country as a preliminary to enslavng the
remnant. Il Nv the pagan must open s
almond eyes on learning that his presence IS
corrupting to such Christians! Even III
Pittsburg the newly arrived Oriental must
find it difficult to believe himself worse thah
his neighbors. He cannot be more prolahe.
He is not idle. That he is more selfish and
has less respect for the rights OF others Is no.
toriously untrue. He cannot make tree with
the property of others to Greater extent
than the members of the Christian commu-
nity.' And in all artificial vices he is clearly
inferior to them. Luxury, gormandizin; :,
late hours, debauchery and drunkenness are
by no means familiar to him. lie is not
bloodthirsty fellow, and one adopted citizen,
from Cork with sprig of shelalah will put a
score of the craven Asiatics to fight. The
coolie NEEDLES not wi politics, never puts
two votes into the ballot box, is not mixed up
with railroad rings, never had any dealings
with Tweed or the Erie railroad. knows not
even the name of Woodruff and Clafins pa
per, doesn't take brides from the Credit Mo
bilier, does not play draw poker, and never
attempts corner In the stock-market. The
Pittsburg platform will never dc. The posi-
ton lat coolies affect iniuriously the pure
morals of our countrymen cannot be MAIN
tanned unless it be shown that there is some
peculiar aiquity in wearing pig-tail, and
that eating rice with ehop-sticks is badge of
original sin. We may much more nationally
call upon the government to save the unso-
phisticated Mongolians from the influences of
q n own imperfect civilization. No doubt it
it is better for John and for us hat he should
stay at home-especially for John. But let
us put the exclusion on the right ground.
