SLAVERY STILL EXISTS.

Following closely upon the heels of the
announcement that slavery exists in
Liberia, comes the news that cargo of
three hundred slaves, bound for San
Benito, Mexico, put into brakes Bay, ten
miles from San Francisco, Cal The latter
are natives of the Gilbert Islands on their
way to work on the coffee plantations, and
are said to be under contract, but the fact
remains that they are in reality slaves and
a shudder of horror that such state OF
affairs can exist in this enlightened age
will creep over the moralists.
Yet slavery has existed in the United
States for many years and nothing has
been done to prevent it. There are on the
Pacific coast hundreds of Chinese women
and coolies who are held in bondage as
closely as were the negroes before
sales of women in the city of San
Francisco, and it is well known there that
their value is from $500 to s., 500. Scarcely
a week passes on the Pacific coast but ac-
counts are published of the escape and re-
capture of Chinese female slaves. These
have neither created horror nor have they
induced attempts to establish their free
dom. Occasionally when Chinese woman
applies to the courts for relief, she is
given home, but only in such cases is
there the least interference with the rights
of the Chinese masters. Before rescuing
parties are sent to the Gilbert Islands or
