in limited numbers, particularly as
domestic servants, might serve an
useful purpose as hint to Bridget
that now that long suffering individual,
her employer, might turn and revenge
herself. Their advent as laborers and
mechanics would be impracticable and
undesirable, not only by the hostility
it would provoke in both cases, but in
their unitness to compete with the
whites in either pursuit, the relations
between farmers and hands being essen
TALLY different from those prevailing in
California, and the ability Of the Amer
lean mechanic to enable his employer
to compete successfully with the
cheaper and more docile mechanics of
Europe lying in his ability to work
with his head as well as his hands, in
which the Chinese are generally sig
nally deficient.
If there is any truth or force in the
foregoing reflections, it might be as
well for Congressman, when this sub
ject of Chinese immigration is again
forced upon their attention, to consider
it in a broader light than mere party
interests would dictate, and if, on
statesnanlike grounds, further Asiatic
immigration should be thought unde-
sirable, to arrange with the Chinese
Government to put an absolute stop to
it, without discourtesy to a foreign
power or the ridiculous and easily
evaded provisions which marked their
late action on the subject

TRAINING SHEPHERD DOGS.

The following extract gives Mr..
Darwin's description on the method Of
training shepherd dogs:
"When riding it is a common thing
to meet large flock of sheep guarded
by one or two dogs, at the distance of
some miles from any house or man.
| often wondered how so firm friend
ship had been established. The
method of education consists in sepa-
rating the puppy while very young
from it's mother, and in accustoming it
to its future companions. A eve is
held three or four times day for the
little thing to suck, and nest of wool
is made for it in the sheep-pen. At
no time is it allowed to associate with
other dogs, or with the children of the
family. From this education it has
no wish to leave the flock; and just as
another dog will defend its master,
man, so will these dogs defend the
sheep. 1t is amusing to observe,
when approaching a flock, how the
dogs Immediately advance barking,
and the sheep all close in the rear, as
if around the oldest ram. These dogs
are easily taught how to bring home
the flock at a certain hour in the even
ing. Their most troublesome fault
when young is their desire to play
with the sheep, for in their sport they
sometimes gallop the poor things al
most numerically.
"The shepherd dog comes to the
house every day for some meat, and as
soon as it is given him he skulks away,
as if ashamed of himself. On these
occasions the house dogs are very ty-
rannical, and the least of them will
attack and pursue the stranger. The
minute, however, the latter reaches
the flock, he turns round and begins to
bark, and then all the house dogs take
quickly to their heels. In similar
manner, whole pack of hungry wild
dogs will scarcely ever venture to at
tack a flock guarded by even one of
these faithful shepherds. In this case
the shepherd dog seems to regard the
she sheep as its fellow brethren, and
thus gains confidence; and the wild
dogs, though knowing that the sheep
arc not dogs, but are good to eat, yet
when seeing them in flock with
shepherd dog at their head, partly con-
sent to regard them as he does"

Nor society.

She kept it up

And moaned and

He lacked style, also,
AS well as new clothes every six
weeks, and various other things.
He knew how his employer made
several hundreds daily on the street.
A thousand or 50 would not be
missed Tor n lew nOurS.
SO he took it, went up on the street,
and won.

But if you win regularly, society
won't be hard on you.
But if you lose, society will sit down
on you.
Beware.
