SAVED A CHINESE GIRL.-A dispatch
from San Francisco says that Lun Foon,

speak word of English, was saved
Saturday from life of shame in China
town and is now at one of the missions.
She passed the examination for land
ing. having been we'll coached in her
part as the daughter of a Chinese mer-
thant of that city returning from visit
to the old country. Her parents" ties.
tilted to the truth of her story, and she
would have been landed Saturday, but
just before the time for leaving the YES
sci she learned what would be her fate.
She had been told by her brother in
China that she was to be married to
rich Chinese merchant in San Francis
CO and all directions for finding his
place had been given to her. But from
the talk of other women she learned
mat she had really been sold to
brothelkeeper, who would keep her in
slavery till some one bought her or
she died of the hard life. So she ap.
pealed with sobs and cries to the white
interpreter, told her story and YVES
taken in charge. Officials regard her
revelations as valuable, as they will
lead to the exposure of dealers engaged
in importing Chinese female slaves.

BEFORE the war there were q
large number of negro mechanics
in this country, especially in the
South. Now one of them is a
rarity. Negroes now are more
completely excluded from the trades
than they are from the professions, fer
the reason that blood is thicker than
water, and consequently that white
men will not work with them on terms
of equality. The emancipation of the
negroes was the most cruel and stu
pendous crime ever committed upon
what had become gentle, goodna-
tured, happy and contented race.
