Special Correspondence of Telegraph and Messenger, Washington, December 2,. 18G9. THE COOLIE QUESTION. The question of African slavery is a thing.of tee dead past, and tee mischievous agitators of Massachusetts are driven to other issues and inm<]. John Chinaman is now believed to.be tee “coming inan,” and tee Coolie question in some shape will come np for legislation. The nLi«f object in importing these scions of the Flowery Kingdom, is to furnish labor for South em plantations, in localities where the negroes will not, and white, men cannot work. There is every reason, therefore, why Massachusetts should shape legislation in tee matter. An effort will be made to compel tee Coolie lo wear shoes from Lynn, paper collars, from Boston, and to sport a Waltham watch. He will have his choice of wedding sable Dinah or her former mistress. Of course, he must be put on a foot ing of complete social equality. The South will be invaded by a fresh army of Now Eng land “school marms,” for the purpose of teach ing tee Coolie “howto shoot,!’and to convert him from his paganism, if possible. If tee persuasive eloquence of these enterprising vir gins fails to accomplish this, then John China man is hopelessly lost, and can never enter into tee particular fold set apart for righteous-mind ed New Englanders. All this is very pleasant for tee Southern people. Some persons might say teat tee South can protect its own interests, and regulate its own labor system without the interference of Massachusetts. .But it would be a grave error to even suppose tee possibility of such a thing. In Massachusetts is located the “hub,” around which tee rest of the world revolves. Massachusetts “has a mission.” It is to reconstruct tee Union on tho basis of baked beans, psalm-feinging, pumpkin pies and spiritualism. It has commenced with tee South and has not yet concluded its labors in that direction. When, it does “finish” the South, let tee rest of the world tremble. But to the Coolie question: Mr. Sumner, tee great Massachusetts Mogul of “isms,” has sounded tee key-note. He demands for the Coolie an equal copartnership, and eqnal rights before tee law. This means social equality and tee ballot. Some of Mr. Sumner’s followers squirm at this. They think he is a premature; but that he will educate teem np to his belief, there can be no doubt. A “truly loyal” paper, published in tee “Nutmeg State,” thinks Mr. Sumners’ argument a “loose" one, and concludes an editorial as follows: “There is a standpoint from which statesmen must always look at this and similar questions, and it is the standpoint probably taken by Mr. Sumner. We have opened the floodgates of immigration; it is impossible to shntthem; and therefore we must make the bad influences counteract eacb other. We must offsetthe fail ings and prejudices of one nationality with those of another. We must pit the German against the Irishman, tee Jew against tee Romanist.— Looking at tho matter in this light, the more nationalities we can introduce and endow with power, tee greater will be tee counteraction,and tee more homogeneous tee results. The Chi naman is therefore a welcome element to onr population, and his influence should have free play. The advocates of such a doctrine seem to overlook tee fact teat the Mongolians now in this country positively refuse to make them selves a power. Give teem the ballot as soon as they will value it; but it will hardly pay to force it on them.” The Norfolk Journal makes a wry face at onr prospective “fellow-citizens,” and treats of them as follows: “The Chinese are the most idolatrous people upon earth. The “Flowery Kingdom” possesses 500,000 temples, containing 3,000,000 idols. Bat these are not.sufficient for this image-wor- shipping people. Their idols are found on all the highways of the empire, in every private house, and every orthodox Chinaman carries one in his pocket, generally about tee length of from ono to two inches.” It says, further, that these Btrange people seem to be without any conscience, or any mental material out of which to make one,” and it tells of a leader, killed in a revolt, who “left three hundred disconsolate widows to mourn his loss.” It concludes as follows: “The Chinese are very imitative and can do anything in mechanics that any other people in the world can do, but they seem incapable of conceiving any of tee religions, moral or polit ical ideas of tee Caucasians. We look upon their immigration to this country as fraught with the greatest danger to ourselves and onr institutions, and we hope that it will be resisted by onr people at all hazards. | The Baltimore Statesman, an able Democratic journal, is also opposed to Coolie immigration. ^‘W^don’tneed the elaborate arguments which wo see in some journals, to prove to ns that the Chinese are active, enterprising, speculative and industrious. The National Intelligencer, a name which we are glad to see revived in tee ranks of Washington journalism, says that tee testimony 'of all entire Europeans as to tee character of the Chinese is to tee above effect, and also teat they are “cunning, covetous, restless and ex ceedingly unwarlike in their dispositions.” We think we' have enough of exactly such people in this community at present. The Intelligencer mentions the faot which is suggestive of the possible results of a large Chinese emigration to the South, and a promiscons intercourse with the blacks. It is shown that notwithstanding tee fact that, under Dutch domination and en couragement, they obtained in the Island of Java, complete control over the natives in com merce and industrial pursuits; and in spite of too fact that thev amassed money with compar ative ease—tee population under this dispensa tion did not increase in toe ordinary proportion. It is said teat among these emigrants there was a great scarcity of Chinese women of good char acter, but that a population of half-breeds sprang np in the Island, the fruit of promiscuous in tercourse with nativo women.” [I omit tjje statistics which prove tee correct ness of these statements.] 1 The statesman concludes as follows; Internal, revaone receipts yesterday $464,- We are ix;favor of immigration,, but of good Washington taxes are higher this' year than men, of our. own race, and that of such dimen- ever before—cause, a radical city government, sionsonly as shall enable it to assimilate t&or- Three fas hi 0 naW. balls are announced for the oughlv with-our-own-people.
