New YORK, March 1.-The HeraWs
Waynesboro GA. J, dispatch says: Great
excitement exists mere over the present
aspect of the Chinese question. Seven
or eight months ago two Cinnamon,
Tom Loo Chang and An Sing, made
their appearance here. They an
nounced their intention Of opening a
business in fans, notions and other
tr,ties. 5 rangely enough, much oppo-
sition to this manlf sted itself among
the merchants as we'll as trades people Of
this section. The Cinnamon were
really Ill nobodys way, as their bust.
ness was altogether Insignificant. The
chances were that ii lett alone they
would soon tire OF their location. GA
arriving in Augusta the complaints Of
Lop Chang and All Sing created quite
iuttar among the resident Chin csc.
They put themselves at once in COIN
muu.c alton with the Chinese Minister
a. Washington, who called the
attention q the government to the
matter. the result of which
wa; an inquiry by the District Attorney
and the reference Of the matter to the
| Grand Jury Of the Circuit Court: which
meets in Savannah. This action made
the angry Chinese more 50. Loo Chang
came back Il couple OF weeks since and
reopened his business. Conservative
citizens now see that a grave error was
committed and are doing all in their
power 20 calm the minds Of the people,
who are anxious to eXpel the Cinnamon
a second time. L ,st week fuel was ad-
dad to the fire by the conlmencem mt
OF suit against eighteen of our
most prominent citizens, charging them
with damages To she amount OF 81 l5,O COO;
Tom Loo Chang & Co., as a firm, claim
$50, 900; Tom Loo Chang, $40, 900. and
Al Sing, $4,000. The suits are
brought in the United States Circuit
Court iii Savannah with Messrs. Gonahi
& Wright as the prosecuting attorneys,
ana it IS said by distinguished attor
uejs in Washington, Charleston and
Savannah that the damages are probably
the larg. ST on record In this State, and
are so excessive tina. it will certainly
less IN the chances q the Chinese OF
recovering anything. II is understood
the Chinese Minister has personally en-
gagged the service Of these lawyers, AMI
that it is his intensio to make test

Demanding. Their Rights

WASHINGTON, March - The Board
of Directors appointed by the Contra
Committee on Labor Legislation, or
gaGized by authority of the last Con-
gress of the Na.iona; Labor Uaion,
submit to the organized Trades Unions
aui Labor Assemblies OF the United
States a manifesto headed with the
stirring call TO Your Tents, D
Isreal :" The manifesto denounces the
majority of the Senate as lawyers re-
tanned by federated capitalists, demands
an. extra session of Consressa as remedy
for impending strikes, and advises all
wage workmen to join their Trade
Umon or knights OF Labor, and present
an unbroken front. The manifesto de-
nounces the abrupt suspension of the
Senate investigation Of the relations
between capital and labor, and says
this action, coupled with later pro-
ceedings inirnical to wage workers, con-
vinces the Board of Directors OF the in
sincerity and hollow hypocrisy Of the
professions of maj Gritty OF the Sena-
tors. The complete subsection ofsour
legislators to moneyea power was never
more clearly demons trated than by the
recent tariff legislation of the Forty
seventh Congress. and threatens to re.
sult in an immediate and distressing re-
duc.ipn in wages in many Of the great
manufacturing establishments of the
country. The attempt will naturally
lead to strikes, and consequent misery
and want-possibly to riot. Disorder
will ensue, and the blame will be
sought, as usual. to be attached to the
poor workmen. instead of to the gay
AMI festive" liars. hypocrites, jngglers
and public plunderers. who basely
abuse the powers r.posed in them by
contiaing people. The psalnist said
''A!l men of high degree are liars,"
and had he lived in Washington to-day
he would repeat the assertion with our
supplementary attachments. Human
agencies have undoubtedly devised
schemes by which the few have en-
shaved the many, and human beings
must rectify the wrongs. We should
not continue to look into the clouds of
heaven, like ignorant ours, for deliver.
ance from our oppressors, but to one
another. Federated drones must be
countervailed by FEEDER Atei laborers,
demanding, as with one voice, immedi-
ate reform. Whatever we do. how.
ever, should be done peaceably, if pos.
sible, and in accordance with law.

IT Is the candid opinion Of the
TRANSCRIPT, plainly expressed, that
the introduction of the Bates bill for
increased representation for New Castle
county was a mistake. While the bill
may not ask for more than New
Castle county Is entitled to, if popula-
tion be made the basis Of representa-
tion. It asks for more than she could
hope to receive. And further, the peo-
ple Of the rural sections Of New Castle
county have no sympathy for a move
ment to give the city Of Wilmington
nine Representatives and the remainder
of the county only seven. And still
further, many persons, even in New
Castle county, doubt the advisability Of
changing the representation Of any Of
our counties except by constitutional
amendment or convention. If we 90
about it in the right way we have littls
doubt but Kent and Sussex will do the
fair thing by New Castle in this matter
of representation, but we need not ex.
pect to gain anything by making faces
At them and calling them hard names

United States Senate for the term end
ing March, 1868, and was twice offered
the Secretaryship Of the Treasury-once
by Hayes and once by Arthur-but de-
clined. He was also, in 1874, offered
the Mission to Russia, but declined it.

Mr.. PERRY, a Sussex county Repre-
sentative, recently introduced before
the Legislature bill with respect to
the qualifications Of druggists, but it
was not stringent enough to suit the
drug-dispensers Of Wilmington, sand
they have had a substitute prepared.
This substitute provides that after the
first Of August next it shall be unlawful
for any person unless registered phar-
macist, within the meaning Of the act,
to open OF conduct any pharmacy. Or
store for vending OF compromising
medicine or poison in any town exceed
ing 1000 inhabitants. To become a
registered pharmacist, in the meaning
Of the act, one must be either grad
uate Of some reputable college Of phar-
macy, or medicine, or have had prac-
tical experience Of eight years, or pass
an examination before State Board Of
Pharmacy. The provisions Of the act
are to apply to those already engaged
in the drug business. The object
aimed at by this bill is good one, for
cases Of poisoning by ignorant OF mex
perienced compounders of medicine are
by no means rare, but if it is well to 50
protect the people Of towns Of more
than one thousand inhabitants, why
not also those Of smaller towns >? Life
and health are as dear to man who
lives in town of 500 inhabitants as to
one who lives in even city as big as
Wilmington. We fear that the Will
mington druggists in the matter Of
urging this bill are not so anxious to
protect people from being poisoned as
they are to reduce the number of drug
stores. If the Legislature wants to do
a plain, common-sense thing to lessen
the possibility Of people being poisoned
by mistakes Of druggists it should pass
an act requiring physicians prescrip-
tiOns to be written in plain English.
If there is any reason why physicians
prescription should look to the unini-
tiated like a Chinese wash-bill, except
that it has an air Of mystery, we should
like to hear it. IA dose Of castor oil, Or
mercury, will get in its work about as
quick under its plain, every day Eng
fish name as il will under its Latin
name.
