ons morn heard . low quick rspping,
Rapping 81 my chamber door.
And felt . presence cscT stsss opened,
Asilcnt football across the floor.
Before this vailed mysterious stranger
NY spirit quailed. my pulses beat.
kneMa heavy blow was coming
And shrank away with fear complete.
Ny palm was seized with eager clutching
4 hand was pressed upon my brow,
fell back pros trate, faint and weary
could not ten you why or how;
A shudder passed from foot TO forehead
A. felt the Icy breath,
In my ears heard ringing.
A toliing like the knell Of death.
~Unwcicome visitor, I whispered,
Thy voice and touch can not bear"
Then health departed through the DOORWAY
Leaving sickness standing there.
And he stood there smiling grimly,
On HIS breast no blossoms wore
For his sunless, dismal garden
Naught but poisonous heritage bore.
Days and months and years he fingered
With his fiery touch Of pain.
Never sleeping. never resting,
Vanished hope ne'er came again.
~-As the phantom still is standing,
Standing by my pillow nov, -
But before his awful presence
Every mortal head must bow.
VIII and passion, grief and madness,
Rose and left me one by one;
Now meek patience, smiling swectly.
Sits beside me on her throne;
But the guest who trails his garments
Cold and gray about my room,
Takes from me all sweet enjoyment,
Brings me naught but fear and gloom.
sNaught but gloom" It were ungratefui,
When friendship comes with outstretchcd
hand.
And sympathy, her true twin sister,
Glides with grace l can't withstand;
Love, too, 1ightens every sorrow,
Helps me bear this constant pain, :,
Strews around me rare, sweet roses,
Gives me all that heart can claim.
Somnus stands with crimson peoples, q
Bends aboxe my threbhing heaa7-=-=
Waves the branches DER my eyelids,--
Heavy from the tear drops shed;
And soft notes OF liquid music
Sound so sweetsin plaintfye strain,
No need to watch for health's returning,
I'd watch and wait, alas, in vain.
Faith comes In with snow white lilies
In her tender, loving clasp;
Courage, too, with precious ointment
Held within her generous grasp;
Together, then, they sing an anthem,
Triumph, glory, peace and love-
And the angels stoop to listen
From their Heavenly home above. !

To sum up then; We say that
these protestations from certain le-
gislators and members of the pro-
Chinese party and their organ are
rot. The action of the majority of
the Legislators at the extra session,
in insisting on keeping the door
partly open to Chinese, coupled
with their action at the regular ses-
sion, killing oil attempts TO confine
Chinese to plantation work, where
they are needed, and to prevent
other encroachments by Chinese in
certain occupations which are al
ready overcrowded and where they
are not needed, rivets incontestibly
on that party, Notwithstanding all its
talk to the contrary, that their po-
LEY 10 not only to have more Chi
nese when they deem that they need
them, but TO have them in their own
sweet way, with nc check whatever
placed upon these male coolies,
which will prevent them, after serv-
ing temporary apprenticeship on the
plantation, to locate themselves
among whites and natives who with
diminishing success are supporting
themselves and families out of more
remunerative classes Of labor, and
under the protection of the strong
arm of the law, to coolly root them
out and settle in their places. No
wonder the pro-Chinese party edge
off from such a barefaced platform
as that; but that is literally just
what they have done, and there
would not have been even the tenn
porary lull in the further introduce
tion of Chinese during the past year
or so, had not Minister Thurston
absolutely refused to admit any
more, as the requisition of promi-
nent members of the pro-Chinese
party upon the Board of lmmigra-
ton several times will show. The
pro Chinese party at the extra ses-
sion insisted. upon leaving the door
open for so many Chinese per year,
even at the risk of ousting the Min
istry, and tried their best to post
pone the whole Restriction Act, but
it would not work. 1t is idle, there
fore, for them to say that they left
the door open but did not intend to
use it. They have already attempt
ed so TO do. A subservient Minis
try, and Frustrated public scnti'
ment, will set the crank going once
more which will bring more Chinese
dribbling into the country, and
which will complete the handwriting
on the wall, which is decreeing thai
the Anglo-Saxon must accept the
position of a sojourner at the isl
ands, and that the Chinese will?-
no, has succeeded him as the set
