AN rI-CIEINESE MOVEMENT AT
TYPO.
M~OnSOlian Coal burners Driven

nAO WI
From the District.
A few days ago we published a letter
from a correspondent in Typo, giving
a brief account of the proceedings of a
public meeting held there to take ac-
ton in regard to a body of Cinnamon,
who had come into the district for the
purpose of chopping wood, burning
coal, etc. Messrs. Everett d Donaell
arrived here last evening from Tybo
with the Cinnamon referred to, and we
have been furnished with the following
additional particulars concerning the
the affair. 1t appears that the Typo
Consolidated CoMpany let a number
of contracts to burn coal, with the un
Outstanding that that labor should be
performed by white men. The con-
tracing parties, however, came to Eu-
reka aud engaged a lot of Cinnamon,
whom they took to Typo to be EN-
ployed ss wood choppers and coal
burners upon the contracts. Upon
their arrival the Workiogmen's Pro-
tective Union OF Typo held Injecting,
at which it was resolved hat they
would permit no Chinese labor in the
camp. A committee of two was APP
pointed to wait on the Mongolians aud
notify them to leave the town immedi-
ately, which order wa promptly
obeyed. They rolled up their blankets
and were attended by an escort of
seventy men until they had ar
rived a mile from the camp, when
they were given money sufficient
to pay their expenses 10 Eureka
When they arrived at Hot Greek, Il.
miles from Typo, a body OF men got
after them with shotguns and Henry
rifles and drove them back TO a ranch
about half way between the two
places. The Workingmen's Union,
hearing of this, raised a subscription
OF Sl65 to have them hauled hack 10
Eureka. Convsyances were procured
and the Celestials, as we before stated,
arrived in town last evening. These
are the circumstances of the case, as re
lated to us. The working men OF
Typo are evidently determined tina,
they will tolerate no Chinese labor
competition in that district, and While
we can never justify lawless acts OF
any description We can not but admit
that the members of the Typo Union
10 providing the poor devils means 10
return TO the place from which they
am displayed more ma%gnaniinity
than is usually shown in such cases.
The whole affair is another argument in
favor of the necessity of national action
upon the Chinese question and q V ri

My mother! tits holy name,
Endowed with magic power.
TO soothe the sadly troubled soul
In dark aftiictiOn's hour:
1t sweeps the spirits chords like songs
OF angels heard IN dreams;
1t opens the fountains of the heart
As spring unlocks the streams.
No voice like hers. whose lullaby
Was DER our cradle sung,
Can calm the heart by sorrows stern
Cold grasp too rudeiy wrung:
No hand like hers, whose gentle touch
In childhood banshed pain,
Can fold the downy wings of sleep
Above the throbbing brain.
The world-worn spirit, wildly tossed
BY fortunes treacherOus gale, 3
Beholds the faithless friends, on whom
Its hopes were anchored, tall;
And seeking rest. as to the ark,
Returned the weary dove,
From smiling masks aud hollow hearts
Turns to mothers love.
The outlaw, bold and hard of heart,
With dark and stormy soul,
Der which the fiercely surging waves
Of passion madly roll,
Though he, the great All-Father's love
And mercy fail to see,
Can ne'er forget the childish prayer
Lisped at his mothers knee.
While struggling on with weary feet
10 reach the cloudless land,
Though wrong, deceit and chill distrust,
Around us ever stand; -,
The memory of mothers lovo
Lifts up in anguish bowed,
And shines out through the darkest
gloom
Like sunshine through cloud.
Her prayers, though long the mute,
cold lips
Have laid beneath the sod,
Will ever seem like like golden chords
To draw us home to God;
They follow us through joy and woe,
They reach DER land aud wave;
The first beside the cradle found,
| The last beside the grave.
Compared with hers, all other love
Is like an April day,
That fo.ds its smilcs and frowns at last
In cold gray mists away.
AS boun,ll So as the universe,
AS pure us heaven above,
Enduring as eternity.
Such is Il mothers love! ,..t

Let Us Have The Truth.

The columns of the Republican
this morning are again filled with
bitter, burning, willful lies in rela-
ton to the troubles in West Felici-
ana and Wilkinson county. That
paper has damaged this State to the
amount Of millions BY its persistent
and malignant Misrepresentation Of
the white people, and as the canvass
of 1876 approaches, it is re-begin-
ming its infamous work with re-
doubled energy and audacity. We
do not hesitate to affirm that. the
responsibility for all the blood that
has been shed in the broils in LOU
isiana, during the last ten years,
rests upon the shoulders Of the
heartless wretches who conduct the
Republican, and in whose interest
the Republican has been conducted;
and yet, that paper and those men,
aggressive and untiring in their
purpose to utterly subject the white
people and control absolutely the
State, have succeeded in creating
the impression abroad that we are q
race of blood-thirsty Williams, the
object and end of whose lives are to
murder negroes and Republicans
If our people were the wretches the
Republican has represented them ,tc

calls with whom its party has filled

plumber and defame us? If our PEG
pie are Williams thirsting for negro

over Red River Parish; or for My
ers, and Blunt, and Boult to have
pillaged and scourged Natchitoche.

The BRITISH MONARCHY. - The
following is an extract from a speech
recently delivered by Mr.. Cowan,
member for Newcastle on-Tync, iu
the British House Of Commons:
"The right honorable gentleman.
Prime Minister, had told them that
the throne ofthis country depended
for its support on the spirit of the
people. He quite agreed with that
opinion. The monarchy did not
rest on soldiers bayouets or police
mems batons. 1t did not even de-.
pend on law, but on the good sense
and right feeling Of the people
While they recognized thatfact, how
ever, it was only right for them to
recollect also THAT there was no "a
natical belief in the abstract princi-
pies Of monarchy in this c,untry.-
Hear, hear. The doctrine Of di.
vine right was killed OH the scaffold
with King Charles, and went out with
the Commonwealth. The people Of
the country supported the monarchy
because they knew from experience
that they enjoyed under its rule as
large an amount Of we'll ordered lib
Ierty as any other people in the world.
The country, under its guidance, lIad
been prosperous, and the people
comparatively contented anu happy.
But if there was aey attempt to es-
tablish species Of socialistic. EN-.
pire, to drag into our constitution
1.-THE forms and principles Of imperial
ism, honorable gentleman opposite
would soon find that the superstition
of royalty had no real hold on tho
people of this land" U
In abiding tothe above remarks
/ Mr.. Lowe, n. p, said in the course
Of his trerchant speech: ''f'hc hon.
orable gentleman spoke like an hon
est Englishman, not only Will, frank
ness and fairness, and carried tho
House with him, and l hope VIC s',sll
often hear his voice raised with SINH.

Watch That "Pa>Sil."

The old lady deposited her band
boxes and bundles on seat, and then
rushed out Of the car. But before
starting she requested stranger in
the next seat to '.jest watch that ere
passil, if yew please, while go get
me some Coffee" Rain was Just
pouring down outside, and seats were
scarce inside the car, which soon
filled up. The old lady's "passip'
or parcel monopolized seat, and at
tracted the attention Of the brake
man. He went for that paper parcel
ruthlessly. He bounced it fiercely,
and let it go as suddenly as he had
seized it, and rushed out Of the car
swearing terribly. Then young
gentleman escorted lady to the seat
and proceeded to push the parcel
aside. He merely made one push'
and then with suppressed excla-
nation of pain and surprise, proceed
ed to pick something out of his glove.
The lady pumped herself down
alongside the parcel, but bounced up
again quicker than she had sat down.
And with look Of anguish upon her
beautiful face, rushed frantically to
the ladies' soloon. Next stout old
German came laundering into the
apparently vacant seat and topped
over upon that innocent-looking pa.
per parcel. Whew! but what yell
he uttered as he bounced up out OF
that seat. Then the other passen-
gers became interested in that va
cant seat. The conductor, too, came
with the suffering brakeman to see
what the trouble was about, just az
ihe old lady came waddling into the
car Pushing her way to her seat
she smiled blindly upon the passen-
ger in the next seat as she said:
".rhat's present from my son
Ephraim in Illinoy. It's the pref.
tiest bunch Of CACTUS could find
down on the Picketwire down in Col.
Grady. Ain't,it a beauty2"
And the innocent old soul opened
her ''passil" and displayed to thu
amused passengers the cause of tn,
brakeman's profanity, the young
lady's agony, and the Germans sur
prise-a 6ne'bunch of pricsly pears
But it had kept her seat for her
