The coolies work excellently. They
are picturesque additions to the land.
scape, as they keep to the bright colors
and graceful drapery Of India. The grave
dignity Of their faces contrasts remark
ably with the broad, good humored, but
common features Of the African. The
black women look with envy at the
straight hair Of Asia, and twist their un-
happy wool into knots and ropes in
vain hope of being mistaken for the
purer race; but this is all. The African
and the Asiatic will not mix, and the
African being the stronger, will and
must prevail in Trinidad, as elsewhere in
the West Indies. Out Of total popula-
ton Of 10000 there are $4,000 whites
and mulattoes, 10000 coolies, the rest
negroes. The English part Of the Eu-
ropeans shows no tendency to increase.

BACH'S BENEFIT.

II cannot be denied that IL is with q
feeling Of complscency and perhaps
pleasure that we announce this morn
ing the overwhelming defeat OF Prof.
Louis Bach at the second ward polls
yesterday. When the campaign was
fairly opened by the nominations OF a
week ago, Mr.. Bach took exceptions
TO our course In not supporting his
pretensions TO political prefermentand
withdrew his business from this Office.
In doing so he simply exercised the
prerogative OF every citizen TO patron
ize whom he pleases, but Mr. Bach did
more; be endeavored to institute a
boycott on the JOURNAL and destroy
its business with Others; In this BE
was, fortunately, unsuccessful, AZ his
influence did not extend 50 far IA TO
deprive the JOURNAL Of a single nickle
OF any one else's money. Not content
with this, Mr.. Bach has during the
past week issued q daily dodgsr, In
which be each day made q vain at
tempt 10 draw the JOURNAL into q
controversy on the question Of his self
assumed pre-eminent ability asa can
didate for office, his isrgensss Of heart
a. citizen and the spontaneous and
uproarlous clamor for bona fide tax
payers for his election. Al each and
all Of these bats the JOURNAL refused
TO nibble, we'll knowing that the desire
of hlS heart was to have hi. claims for
office noticed and discussed, aud that
no greater disappointment, pending
