McPAHLAND. , Tae Catnese-Question. —The Grass Valley Union takes us to task for our position upon the Chinese question, and . persisté in ‘asking questions and expla~ nations. It thinks our objection to the Chinese on the ground of their religion is not good. Wedo not urge this asa legal objection, but we do claim that the coming of auch hordes as China could send,with such a system of morals <r would be detrimental to. the country; not asa religious belief, but in the results of that belief as exhibited in the practices of the people. Another-ground taken by the Union against our position is the tact that we urged the education of the Chinese as an objection to their coming. _ The . f Unbeet aliadia've the age of Chinese literature, but we had reference to eda. cation in its wider senge; such education a8 qualifies for the duties of ‘citizenship, and we urge th the want of such education agone of the: strongest reasons against Chinese immigration. Their whole course of training bas been ex-, actly the reverse of that required for a clear com prehension of the principles of free government, while attachment to their own habits and customs render improvement in this regard an utter impossibility. This is demonstrated by the fact that contact with foreigners has no effect whatever either upon the habits or customs of Chinese. Other foreigners soon adopt the customs of those with whom they come in contact, and in a few years make good citizens ; but no system of instruction could ever*be adopted which would _ qualify the Chinaman for such a position, Every Chinaman brings with him the exclasiveness which has so long characterized his government, and nothing can change him. The position of the Republican party can not be mistaken on this question. Two years ago the party declared that the further immigration of Chinese should be discouraged, and now the general government is taking active ateps to prevent their importation to the South. A late dispatch informs us that the attempt to bring them: to the South, has called the attention of the general government to the fact that the laws have for some time been violated in bringing this people to California, and the probabilityis that early steps will be taken to stop the practice. It is well known that a system of slavery exists among them in this State. Women are,bought and sold, and frequently transferred from one owner to another by force, working men are required to pay tribute to companies, and the lawscan not reach them because they dare not complain. certain that those wha come would never “leave China unless they were brought over on contracts,.and were compelled to pay after they reached the State. The great objection, however, to this immigration, is their want of enterprise, their migratory character and the fact that they can not be made good citizens. Whoever heard of a Chinese company entering upon a new enterprise of any kind? mbes single mine or industry was ever aided or developed by the Chinese laborer? They follow in the wake of white men‘ and are mere imitators without enterIt is pretty . } y going Svvraatesthe phe Anis fe they poysens. The whole sum and subis that they‘work for a wa ‘nd by manual Jabor they will sid development. We have already enough to supply the labor demanded, . and there are thousands of Europeans tho would come and be glad to work if they could get assurance of —ment. Wealth is not, casi the only ~ ject to be ‘attained. It would be mach better that the country should grow more slowly in wealth, and that a homogeneous and intelligent population should be acquired, than that we should pile up gold in every sic by the aid of this people. ~Tr'only half of what we hear of the atrocities committed by the Spanish in Cuba be true, it may not be long before the condition of things in that Island will become a question of civilization. Some of the narratives which we rte~ ceive from there. are sufficient to make the blood, ran cold—men, women and children barbarously murdered, not in isolated’ cases, but by hundreds, and apperently spon systeni, They bring to mind forcibly these. terrible scenes which the Spaniards enacted neatly a half century ago in nearly all the South American Republics just previous to their final expulgion. Vengeance, in the most implacable form, seems to be” one of the strongest characteristics of that branch of the Latin race. Nournern Distaicr Farm.—The eighth annual fair of the Agricultural Horticultural and, Mechanics’ Society of. the Northern District of California, will. ‘be held at Marysville, commencing on the 284 and continuing. until the 29th’ inst.

Every attention will be shown by oar Marysville friends to all who may ‘attend. OVERLAND TRAVEL.—There is, already a considerable amoutit.of travel from this State to the Eust over the railroad. Several have gone and returned before being missed from. the city, 80 speedily is the round trip accoraplished. Parties who have been over the road say that it is in excellent order throughout. It is expected that the fare to Chicago wil] shortly be greatly reduced. Rumor has it that it is to be put.down to $75.Tue San Jose Mercury will be published as a daily after the 2d of August, J.J.

A bisPaTon from Treasure City, July 28th, says: “The Miners’ Union visited all the principal mines: yesterday, and the $4 men were everywhere driven eut. Sonie miners working on contract for the Aurora Consolidated were compelled to stop work. The men working in the blacksmith shop for the same company were also made to stop. Three men workingon the Mazeppa mine were captured and marched over to the California mine, where four more were compelled to fall in, and the whole then marched upto the Eberhardt mine, where they were finally liberated. At the Eberhardt all the men employed in any capacity were forced to stop work ; even the men engaged in hauling ore with teams were prevented from loading the wagons.

They are the lessees of the mine, and only stop sinking to stope out, in order to make wages for the month. Most of “heir time therefore, is spent in‘ dead work,” so far as the present is concerned, in the develope~ ment ofthe mime. The ledge in the Hartery looks well, having the charatteristics of the Allison Ranch ledge to the north of which it is located, and of which it is thought to be an extension. The Wisconsin Mine employs about forty-five men, and the company are taking out some good rock, as well as developing the mine so a8 to work it to advantage hereafter. . Macauley’s mili, of Boston Ravine, is now crushing 4 lot of rock from the Wisconsin. Bn jot makes 170 loads, and good judges say that it will yield upwards of $40 per . load. The company intend to put upa mill of their own;at.an,parly day. ‘The West Eureka mino is being worked allthe time. Am incline shaft is going down and has reached a depth of fifty feet. Some good rock has been taken out, and good prospects of free. gold have been obtained from it. Max . chinery will be put upon the West Eu~ reka as. soon as developements show the proper place for its location. . The Union Hill mine employs about seventy men, and work is being. prosecated with good results. It bids fair to soon take a frontrank in the mines . of the State, The West Idaho, located near Slate creek, supposed to be on the Eureka ledge, is being worked. An incline has been sunk about fifty feet, aud at a depth 6f one hutidred feet it is expect~ ed to strike the ledge. ‘There are “stringers” in the shaft which look well. The Empire is now full othasids, and mill and mine are working day and night. The rock coming out is fair. The Euréka and Idaho are doing as usual. Ricn.— We learn that two gentlemen were down at Allison Ranch, the other day, and in order to test the richness of the rock now being taken out, one of the party “timed” one-of. the stamps, and after a run of six minutes th@ blangold was realized. Dotxe Weut.—Mr. Cain, who was shot at Virginia, is getting along very well, Hall, the man who did the shoot~ ing, is in jail. He ean give no reason for firing upon Cain, as‘there was no trouble between himself and Cain—in fact they had not even spoken together. A Srvere Fir.—As Wells, Fargo & Co's. coaches were about leaving Virginia on Friday, says the Dnterprise, Senator Stewart, who was outside with the driver, suddenly took a fit and ré« mained in a state of insensibility for about six minutes. He was taken to the International Hotel, where every attention was shown him, yet he remained speechless for nearly half anhour. The fit was supposed to have been caused by his having eaten a considerable quantity of gum camphor during the past three days as a corrective for some disarrangement of the bowels. For a time his friends were much alarmed about him, but he will probably be as well as usual this morn~ ing. He is not subject to such attacks, . ’ and his illuess cannot be accounted for, unless it was caused by his having used an immoderate quantity of camphor, as is asserted, He was leaving for Cali« fornia when taken ill. .

It was announced some time ago that arrange” ments were about completed by which emigrants could come from New York to San Francisco for fifty dollars. It appears that those arrangements were announced prematurely, and. that though the Central s have been doing their best'to secure such a tariff, they have not as tt succeeded. Nothing is more ce n than that. the ‘rail-~ road companies will find it to their advantage, in a business point of view, to put thefares down to the lowest pos~ sible fate. We believe it would psy: them well to place the rates as low age or lower than, the steamer rates. At forty dollars a head; -six--or.ten.times. the number would avail themselves of the line than would travel at a hundred dollars. Cheap fares always have proved the soundest financial policy all over the world, the namber of people using the lines being always much greater than the difference between high and low rates. The Pacific Rail-: road. will never have a fair chance, and it certainly never will benefit this State much; until its emigrant trains are fillAncora GoaTs AND ™~ CoTswoLD SHeer.—On one ranch in Monterey county, says the Democrat, there are 24 Angora goats of pure, and 1,599 of mixed blood, and 39 Cotswold sheep of pure, and 4,500 of mixed blood. The fleece of the goats are described as be‘. ing soft, glossy, with the feel of silk,. . attaining a length of twelve inches and . a weight of from five to eight pounds. These fleeces are employed in the manufacture of the costliest fabrics, suitl is command from one and’s. balf to two . Procut! dollars per pound in San Franciseo. The goats are sbsolutely free from any tendency to scab, and there is no difficulty in rearing them exeept from a habit the.dams have, ofkicking their kids at weaning time, which requires extra at~ tention and pains at that season. The pure Cotswold sheep will weigh from 250 to 400 Ibs., yield fleeces of combing wool, free from yolk or dust, weighing from 10 to 18 pounds, worth from 70 to 80 cents, in gold, per }b.,in New York.
