As we write this item we know full we'll that
the lovers oflthe degraded, diseased and disgust

merely creation of our own, gotten up to Gre

trodden and much-abused little brown men with
tails on the hack Of their heads and disease and
loathsome vapors being thrown off their entire
opium-soaked carcasses. Before we commence
we Will assure such unfortunates whose bump
OF lunacy has overpowered their good sense that
what we say we can substantiate and is as fol-

engaged China boy who had just arrived from
the wilds of China to do her homework, He
was naturally bright in comparison to the gen.
erai run and seemed to take an interest in his
work. She not only taught him Homework, but
to read and write. He grew rather fond of the
lady who had helped him SO much and would
exert himself to please her, being always com
paratlvely neat and clean. A few DAYS ago he
went to her and told her he was going to leave
She, not desiring to lose him, insisted on know

providing she would not repeat it, to which she
agreed and he proceeded as follows: II belong to
the same company that Charley Lee Quong and
All Lee, who are in Jail, do, and our company

The murdered Chinaman belonged to COM

hatred, both here and in China, and it is prob.

here and in China on the day of execution, and
it will be we'll to be on the alert and fully pre-.

in our midst and their numbers becoming &C
great that by rivalry and inherent hatred the
horrible and bloody scenes of China will be en-.
acted on this coast unless prompt and active
measures are taken to prevent their wholesale
immigration to these shores. Even now should
this spirit of hatred break out in open warfare
the result would be too horrible to relate. We
point to these things as warning to our people
