What we mean by it is, a song that

Surely our public schools were
not originated for such work as that.”
If the Superintendent elect wilt ‘look
‘os the school law now in force he will
find that “partisan and sectarian ¢reeds”’
re already prohibited in public
achools, and the present law goes so
far as to exclude all books of such character from the school libraries. Though

State, don't like the songs our children

‘The miners at French Corral are very
indignant at the employment of Chitiese by Schardin & Bell, in the French
claims at Kate Hayes’ Flat. They have .
organized themselves into a league,
on Sunday last went to the grdund,drove
off the Chinamen, and tore down two
cabins Valued at about $50. We understand that every male resident of
French Corral, except fifteen or twenty,
is concerned in the movement. What
ever inay be the policy in such labor
‘we do not think dny good can be. acproved by the results of attempts to
drive out Chinese labor at San Francisco, The laborer certainly is right .
in protecting his interests by all peaceable means, but the employment of
force in‘such cases as this, will always
result in evil instead of good. We aré
glad to know that better counsel pfevailed at French Corral than at San
Francisco, and those who were » disposed
to assault the Chinese laborers were
restrained. By attempting to accomplish their erids by force, the miners .
‘and become Hable for their acts, Those
who are connectéd--with the league,
should therefore, for their own good
proceed with great caution, and
good: citizens should strive to prevent
any breath of the pedce If the em—
ployment of Chinese is detrimental to
their interests,let them remonstrate,and
ork with all the moral force they can
bring to beer in preventing men from
employing them, and the desired resalt
may be secured ; but force in all such
cases brings trouble.
“Nor InviTep.”—We notice dons an
exchange that this was the reply given
by a farmer to a tradesman, when ask—
