THE HEATHEN CHINEE;

What he looks like and how he Lives and
Works; His Virtues, Vices and Crimes,
Is an able expose of the coelie system
as it is practiced in Califorui, with a iuil
and impartial account Of Its effect upon
the industries of the State. The dcscrlp
tions of life and crime in Chinatown are
vivid and accurate. and the fairness of the
writer, who is an old Californian, renders
his expressions exceptionally valuable;
His views on the subject are sound ana
lust ones, and will command more aiteh-
tion than any other utterances on the same
subject than have vet been given the press.

Weaving the Web.

This morn | will weave my Web," she said,
AS she stood by her loom in the rosy light,
And her young eyes, hopefully glad and clear.
Followed after the swallows flight.
LAS soon as the days first tasks are done,
While vet | am fresh and strong" said she.
Il VIII hasten to weave the beautiful web
Whose pattern is known to none but me.''
Il will weave it fine, will weave it fair,
And ah how the colOrs will glow she said
$50 fadeess and strong will weave my web
That perhaps it will live after l am dead"
But the morning hours sped on apace;
The mir grew sweet with the breath of June
And young Love hid by the waiting loom.
Tangling the threads as he hummed a tune.
"Ah. life is so rich and full" she cried,
And morn is short, though the days are long
This noon will weave my beautiful web,
! will weave ii carefully, fine and strong"
But the sun rode high in the cloudless skV
The burden and heat of the day she bore;
And hither and thther she came and went,
While the loom stood still as it stood before.
''Ah. life is too busy at noon" she said:
My web must wait till the eventide;
Till the common work of the day is done,
And my heart grows calm in the silence
wide."
50. one by one, the hours passed on,
Till the creeping shadows had longer grown
Till the house was still, and the brcezes slept
And the singing birds to their nests had flown
And now will weave my web" she said.
rs she turned to her loom ere set of sun.
And laid her hand on the shining threads,
To sci them in order one by one.
But hand was tired, and heart was weak;
81 am not as strong as was" sighed She,
And the pattern is blurred, and the colors rare
Are not so bright, or so fair to >ee."
Il must wait. think, till another morn;
must go to my rest with my work mdone
If is growing TOO dark to weaye.'' She cried,
As lower and lower sank the sun.
She dropped The shuttle the loom stood still:
The weaver slept in the twilight gray.
Dear heart, VIII she weave her beautiful web
In the golden light of longer day:

A Man Who Saw a Mule Die.

"Ain't it a curious thing that nobody
ever sees a mule die 2" remarked an old
teamster in Gumber & Webbcr's saloon.
''No man living ever saw a mule die,
s'pNSe z"
Thus remarked Mr.. Daniels, lighting
fresh cigar: "in 1850 | was mining on

A Double Advance.

In the ante belum days New York State
grocer raised the price Of certain grade of tea
from ''thrcc shlings" to As cents. and an Old
farmer who came in with Il barrel of cider vim
egar to sell. could hardly credit his senses when
told that his favorite brand of tea had advanced
several cents per pound
What on airth is the reason for this sudden
raise" he inquired.
scarcity Of tea chests" was the brief answer
well, do You want my vinegar"
''HOW much:'
Eight cents gaon.'
II only paid seven for the last
''leS, but cider has riz, You Scc.''
What has brought cider up?" asked the as
tonshed grocer.
Scarcity Of bung-hole plugs" was the quiet
but serious reply.
They looked at each other without winkng.
and then tea dropped back to IS and cider to :
cents.

Collision at Sea.

Sunday morning, May DIST, about /!
o'clock, when the ship Harvey Mills, Of
4 1homaston, Me, then bound for New
York, was only 36 miles out Of Liverpool
and about 80 miles southwark Of Cape
Clear, without the slightest warning it
collldcd with British bark Eta. with Il
terrific crash. the concussion being so
great thai everybody on board supposed
for the moment that hurricane had
struck the ship. Instantly there was a
dcatening crash, and before the men ON
either vessel had a chance to know what
the cause was, the heavy iron forcmasts
Of the Eta, together with everything at
tached thereto, struck the deck, smash
ll1 everything in its way, tearing the
woodwork Ike so much tissue paper,
knocking large holes in the planking. and
causing such other irreparablc damage
that the Eta soon after went down,
nothing whatever being saved from her
but 4 few effects Of little value belonging
to her captain and crew, who managed
to save themselves after the most hazard
Gus experiences
The Harvey Mills Was struck on the
stern with the strength Of a battering
ram, carrying away her iibboom, bend
ing herplanking. and opening her seams
50 badly that she was only saved from
sinking by incessant work at the pumps
for days and nights in succession, her
own crew being relieved at intervals by
men from the sunken barque, the water
All the time gaining upon them After
the most eNhausting labors by all on
board, the ship was finally worked into
Crookhaven, where the services Of thirty
men We're required to assist in keeping
her ailoat Here a telegram was sent to
Queenstown for toWboats to take the ship
to Cork, at which port she arrived May
35th, the men, nearly exhausted, never
leaving the pumps from the time of the
collision. The Harvey Mills will repair
at Cork probably.
