Chinese Slaves.

AS the contracts with the coolies
in Peru will shortly expire, and as
they intend in nearly all cases re-
turning to China, the agriculturists
have besought the government to
encourage immigration from Eu-
rope. The congress has therefore
passed a law authorizing the exec
utiye to import 100000 European
men, with their families, at the
governments expense. Small tracts
of land will be given to them, to-
gether with instruments of agri-
culture and building, and also seeds
for their first crop. They will be
expected to earn food, at first, by
laboring for others, and to repay
the government in small install
ments.

OhIcago's PhIIosophicAI Coroner

ChicagO's Philosophical Coroner
The annual report of the Chicago
coroner is a singular document. 1t
begins with a quotation from
Horace, and then the following
from "Hamlet," as pertinent to the
subject:
- To die-to sleep
No more-snd, by sleep to say we end
The heartache, and the thousand natsral
shocks
That flesh is heir to-'tis consummatOn
Devoutly to be wished"
Next comes a sage consideration of
the frequency of murders, in which
is this; "The pistol and knife are
frequently made the sole arbiters of
human strife, and we are rapidly
returning toward that barbarous
condition of affairs in which it was
necessary to instruct children, al
most from infancy, in the use of
deadly weapons in order that they
might easily acquire skill In the
handling of these amiable and use-
ful Instruments" The coroner
deyotes careful attention to suicides
and incidentally says suicide is par
ticularly common among the Ger
mans Of Chicago-aS to which he
nuts forward a theory: "The well
known national beverage of the
Germans, large beer, may yhaye some
influence upon their psychological
ailments into the form of q
metamorphosis from phlegmatic
ease ta melancholy, and finally sui
cidal maina." After discussing love
as an incentive to suicide, he gives
be passage That we but lately
quoted the other day. " Let us
pass from the contemplation Of the
tragedy of love to that of the poor
fellow who blew out what little
brains he had on account of the
tortures to which he was daily sub
jected by his mother in law.
AotherSrinslaW have always been q
great power Of mischief in the
world, aud alas the plague
is so universal aud enduring that
We must despair of ever seeing it
overcome. The misery caused by
mothers-in-law is eternal, even as
mothers-in-law themselves are i'm
mortal"
