THE LABOR TRAFFIC IN THE PACIFIC.

In the Weekly Press of Canterbury, New Zea-
land, we ind an interesting account of a public
meeting convened in that city during the past
month, for the purpose of listening to the reports
of Clergymen recently returned from the Church
Mission of Melanesia. 1t will be remembered
that the founder of that Mission was the lamented
some two years since. The natives on some of
the islands of Melanesia are perhaps the most
savage on the face of the globe, but yet they have
been proved by the Mission to be capable of being
taught. The +" labor trade however, was stated
by the missionaries to have been a constant source
of anxiety ard a great hirdranoe to their work
and those OF the natives who went away as labor
ers and returned from 80 civilization came back
greater savages than when they left.
One speaker at the above mentioned meeting
fthe Rev, Mr.. Jacksonl boldly spoke of the
slave traffic which was carried ON under the guise
of a labor trade, not only in Melanesia, but
throughout the Pacific Islands. We append a
summary of his remarks, whereby it appears that
in spite of the efforts of the British Government
through its cruisers, the i~niquities Of the labor
traffic still continue:
1.-The rev speaker read a letter he had received
from the Rev. Mr.. Selwyn, relating a case of kidnap-
ping that had recently come to his knowledge; also,
from the Rev. Mr.. Codrlugton, who had learnt of a
case Of kidnapping under the guise of labor. 1t was
often the case that while one Of II. NJ ships was at
one side of the island q SLAYER was at the other side.
The natives did not understand the meaning Of a
three years. engagement, as they could not look so
far ahead. And complaints had been made to him
that when these men had been taken to Fiji, they
would not work. The fact vas, that in their own
country they we're not used nor required to work, or
to restraint, and when compelled TO work under au-
thority they naturally demurred. A respectable
planter had told him in FIJI that they (the ~pIanteTs)
were compelled to use the lash pretty freelyI and that
horrible atrocities committed upon the natives by
overseers and planters in FIJI, and when any Of the
men did return to their native place, they could
revenge upon the whole race Of white men. He

Fiiian Prospects.

There are a good many New zealanders (says the
Auckland Starr who cast longing books towards FIJI.
To the consideration Of such we would commend the
following extrao. from the letter Of a resident in
Levuka ;-s' Should there be a great rush Of people
here, as many persons think there viii be, numbers
Of new arrivals will End themselves grievously dis
appointed. There is not, nor is there likely TO be for
a long time TO come. any kind Of employment for
mechanics and artisans; there are notrades OF man
ufactures carried on, or likely TO be. at present.
Provisions are excessively scarce and dear; house
rent is very high. and all the available land for
building purposes. in and about LeVuka, is already
in the hands Of private individuals. who viii not sell
except at enormously high prices, or let only on
short ~bnilding leases at heavy ground rental; and as
there is no brick or stone ft for building purposes.
there is no work, or very little TO be obtained for
either masons or bricklayers. There are some
bricks now making at the Rswa, but the clay used is
by no means of good quality. being to much impreg-
mated with mundic, which bursts into bulbs and
holes during the process Of burning, 30 that the
bricks are Of no great value, and not likely 10 be Of

Reciprocity

The following is from the Atlas telegraphic dis
patch from Washington. dated March 4th :
In an editorial of the National Republican to-day
on the Hawaiian reciprocity, it is asserted that the
sugar reineries of San Francisco have made a
strong opposition to the last treaty. But q careful
Investigation has shown their objections based
upon a misrepr of the producing capacity
of the islands, which all writes agree in stating as
very small. Mr.. Wells, who investigated the mat
ter in 1867, puts the possible product of sugar,
under the most favorable circumstances, at 10000
900 pounds, which is a large estimate, but would
then only amount to two-tbirds OF the annual i'm
portation of the port of San francisco alone, while
others put it at much less than that. The Govern
ment is in possession of all the Information gathered
by Diplomatic Agents at the Islands. and the
Senate will doubtless be furnished with correct
data.
The treaty probably viii be the 6rst business
for consideration. Its friends urge that it is, in
every way, an exception to the general reciprocity
treaties. and bears no analogy to the Canadian, as
it provides a free market for American manufac-
lures, IN which the manufactures of other countries
will pay duties, thus protecting American manu-
