SLAVERY IN CALIFORNIA.
Evidence Of the Existence of the HOrri.
Bile System Among the Chinese.
san Franeiseo CalI. February 9th.l

San Francisco Call, February 9th.l
The testimony of a Chinese woman
named Wong All Sing, given in the
Police Court yesterday during the
trial of Chinaman named Lee Chuen,
who was charged with having com
mitted a battery upon her, throws
some light upon the system of slavery
existing among the Chinese in this
city. Through the Interpreter, she
said she is twenty years of age. Ten
years ago she was purchased from her
parents in China for $50 by a wo-
man known to her as the "gray-haired
lady This woman brought her and
another girl to this city. After she
had been here a few months the gray
haired lady" sold her to DR.. Liza Pc Tai
for over $50. She remained but a few
months, when she did something that
displeased one Of the doctors wives,
who induced the doctor to sell her to
another ChinamanIfor $50 or $40. This
man, who kept a Joss-house, had her
in his charge for several months, when
he gave her to a Chinese woman,
keeper Of a house of ill-tame, in
part payment Of a debt. From this
house she was taken to another. where
she was sold to a man for 500. AT
that time she was but twelve years of
age, and her last purchaser kept her
as his wife for about three years, after
which he sold her to the defendant for
Sl60, and that she had been living
with him ever since. Some time ago
she found out that he wastiring of her
and wanted to get a younger and pref
tier woman, and that he had made ar
rangements to sell her to some China
man in the country for $3.50.
That he had her in a wash
house, and about a week ago
took her from there to a house on Cali
fornia street, where he told her that
she must go to Grass Valley with him.
She refused, and he struck her with a
rattan. She raised an alarm, which
attracted the attention of a number of
Cinnamon, who sided with the defend
ant, and told him thatif she would not
do what he wanted for him to pretend
to take her back to China, and when
half way across to give her a push,
throw her overheard and make believe
that she had fallen over accidentally
She said that wherever the defendant
kept her, she was held in restraint by
his friends, who prevented her from
going out Of the premises.
A tier found on tho accused was

BRIGNOLI DEPARTS.
Some Reminiscences---His SuperstitiOns
--.His Meeting with Rossini.
New York Sun.

New York SUM-
Signor Brignoli, who sailed for
England yesterday, would have gone
on Friday but for the superstition
which is one of his characteristics.
Net, said that favorite tenor, " not
eff a ~tresor-r-r awaited me on re othair
side, would Brignoli sail on re 18th.
The Chevalier dc Vivo, devoted to the
Signor's interests throughout a score
Of years, explained that Colonel Ma
pleson, to whom Brignoli is under
engagement to sing in London and the
provinces, had written him that he
was to depart by the City of Montreal
on Thursday. the 10Th" but that the
artist had replied that Thursday being
not the 18th, but the aocursed 18th,
on no account would he sail on that
day. Instead he had secured pas
sage on the Germanic. This had
led to correspondence and kilograms.
which would scarcely, however, have
but n result, since Saturday steam
er is enough to make up for the two
days loss of time. Colonel Mapleson
was %momentarily expected to arrive in
town from Philadelphia, but as Brig
noli was to take his farewell benefit at
Wallack's Theater on Thursday. it was
obvious that it would be impossible
for him to leave before Saturday. and.
in any case, the 18th would prevent.
Non, non, said Brignoli rousing up
again, mot for a tresor-r-rl'

cuse.'"
Bngnoli's departure recalls the fact
that he camc here in 1856, having been
engaged BY Maurice Strakosch, and
since then he has made about $780,
600, which he has spent as freely. The
artists who appear at his benefit are
paid, and it has been his custom to
provide a feast for the chorus and
orchestra on similar occasions. For
many summers he resided at Newport,
steadily refusing TO sing even a single
song in public during that time, al
though he was once offered $500 TO
sing a moroccan with Adelina Patti.
He kept fast horses, including one
stallion called Garibaldi, and a team
known as Black Laura and Janet,
which was once victorious in a contest.
Accustomed to success on the stage,
said the Paris Moniteur, recording
this incident, "Brignoli has not been
left behind on the race course" A
friend of the tenor, Mr.. Angler, a
baritone residing in Boston, consented
to drive the horses once on the track,
in consideration Of 4 composition to
be written expressly for him by the
artist.
Brignoli has sung with all the great
artists of the pastduarter ola century
He takes nothing for the voice save
quiet and a little homeopathic medi-
cine. He does not believe in speaking
much during the day he is going to
sing, and quotes in support OF this the
assertion of a famous tenor, that "the
voice is like a well-the more you take
from it the less there is left" Duprez,
who was his master, said to him once
it would be wise to sing in light operas
as long as possible, adding that force
was the best resort" On the tenor's
table at the Everett House were the
photographs of numerous prime dome
with autographs Inscriptions, includ-
ing n OF Adehna Patti, Marquis de
Caux, and there were many cards.
including those of Governor McClell
Ian, Of New Jersey, who is a friend of
his, and of William II. Vanderbilt.
On the back of the latter is written /:
viii Signor Brgnoli please sing
Good By, Sweetheart, Good-by,' for
an encore, and oblige a party of
friends 2"
Briguoli produces, with pardonablc
pride, a photograph of Rossini, framed
so as te disclose an inscription on the
back, which reads "iSoucenir de
SyDlpdthie o6ert a mon Gallant inter
prete, Pasqueliao Brjgao6. G.. Ros-
sim, Pussy, % AoUt, 1866" This
presentation was made when Brignoli
the veteran composer at Passy,
in company with Sir Michael Coster,
Just after he had sung with Adelina
Patti in IL Babiore, in Paris. When
the tenor took his leave he respect
fully kissed Rossini's hand. Howl"
said the composer, will you not en-
brace me, or do you reserve all such
for pretty women?" Sir

the article well-nigh exhausted. But
as 1t is well known the r. D. own all
the stock in that su~bterranean institu-
