.CompetitIve Labor In New York.

New York, Aug. 6.-The white
laborers employed in the construction
Of the New York, Ontario and Western
railroad, are much excited over the
rumor that the contractors intend to
bring from the south large number OF
negro laborers, who can be obtained for
S1.25 per day, while the white men
have been receiving SLIGO. Three hun
dred negroes are already at work on
the Middleton branch. They are from
Maryland and the District of Columbia,
and have formed curious colony by
themselves. They all mess together,
and 1t is said that their board, washing
and mending never exceeds SIC a
month per man. They live on ham and
bacon. with fresh meat once week.
Their evenings are spent in singing and
dancing, and every Sunday regular
religious revival is held, which attracts
large crowds from the surrounding
country. The white laborers say thei1
whole object. is to gradually cut down
the wages TO 81. .25 day, the amount
for which the negroes are willing te
work; that II was bad enough to bs
ground down to the level Of Italian
lkborers. but this new move is some.
thing too much for patient endurance

The American consul at Canton,
China, Mr.. Scrogg, passed through on
No. yesterday, going east on leave
OF absence on account Of Ill health.
Mr.. Scrogg says that the intelligent
Chinese, especially those of his consul
late, Canton, are very much pleased
with the new treaty, especially with
those clauses relating to the opium
trade, which was forced upon them at
the cannon's mouth by England, and
continues to be 30, by milder means
perhaps. Speaking Of the recent re-
moval of the Chinese students from
American schools, the gentleman said
that he had not heard of 1t until his
arrival at San Francisco. The Chinese,
however, are q peculiar people, set and
unprogressive, and wish to preserve
their institutions. He presumed that
the students were imbibing American
ideas too readily. and our republicanism
must be always inconsistent with their
monarchial institutions. The LEADER
may add, upon the statement Of Chap
lain Wells, that at home, Mr.. Scrogg
says, the Chinese neither get drunk nor
swear, but under the civilizing in
fluence Of Americans, they are readily
learning to do both. ff-ls

The Boomerang yesterday contained
about two columns devoted to the an
ticipated railroad which is expected to
make boom for Laramie City. 1t
contained nothing new Of Importance
more than was published in the LEADER
yesterday. The route is laid out from
Greeley to Fort Collins; thence up the
Cache-la-Poudre through the canon
into the North Park; thence through
the Muddy pass into Middle Park, and
on by the most feasible route to Salt
Lake. This is the main route upon
which work is now rapidly progressing.
A branch will run from Laramie City
to make a connection for this line with
the Granger extension.

LATEST BULLETINS.
Washington. Aug. 9

W tkAAs aug "
u:30 p. m: Up TO about 5 o'clock
this afternoon the president had a very
satisfactory day, although the extreme
heat caused him good deal of discom-
fort and acted to some extent unfayor-
ably upon his general condition. On
account of the strong hot wind from
the south, it was found impracticabie
even at the full capacity Of the refrig-
Grating machines to keep the tempera-
ture of the patients SOON down with
out closing doors and windows, and this
it was not thought prudent TO do. Cold
air enough was furnished by the ma
chimes, but instead of filing the room
and crowding out the heated air as it
has heretofore done on warm days, the
cold air itself was swept away almost
as fast as it came from the pipes by the
hot south wind which blew strongly
throughout the mansion. The ther-
mometer in the patients room, there
fore, for the first time in several weeks,
ranged from IS to 90. This tempera-
ture, of course, operated to the presi-
dents disadvantage in his present
weak condition, and this afternoon the
fever was higher than usual. There
was no indication, however, of any
other cause for an increased febrile rise.
The discharge of pus at the evening
dressing was satisfactory, there was no
symptoms of malaria, and with the ex-
ception of high bodily temperature,
the condition of the president at 7
O'Clock seemed quite as good as yester-
day, II not better. Soon after the even
ing examination the fever began to
abate, the president went to sleep ma
turally, without anodines, and has rest
ed quietly ever since. Before 10 O'Clock
the febrile rise had entirely subsided
and at this hour, 11:30 p. M, the pa
TENTS pulse Is again below 100 and, his
temperature is normal He is sleeping
peacefully, and as the weather has
grown cooler, with refreshing rain,
there is every probability that he will
have good night.
