After tho Funeral.
Of nil tho rettirnings homo, (ho re
turn from the grave alter the Amoral
is tbo most intensely sad. Who that
has ever followed one dearly beloved
to bis Inst rest will not agree that ilis
even so ?
Whilo tho lost ono was sick, we
went in and mil, anxious, sorrowing,
fearful. The solicitude to relievo uud
cure fiir him engrossed us the appro,
bension of losing him excited and tig
oni.ed us, but there was no room nor
time for loneliness or a sense of pres
cut desolation.
While he lay dead beneath tho home

funeral arrangements definitely made
the mourning procured and fitted
the hospitalities of tho house must he

tension the loss is not yet (elt.
Hut when tho coach drops us at our
door, "after tho funeral," there il iB
that the work of tho destroyer begins
to bo apparent the very house seems
lone ; nnd still und sepulchral though
it be in the heart of the town ; uud
though ils threshold bo thronged with
friendly feet, it seems empty and void!
Tho aparlmonts, oh, how deserted
especially in the room where he fought
and surrendered in the awful conflict !
IIere,there,every whero aro memorials

start now, though we have often con
templated them calmly ever since he

seat at tho family board. Huring the
sickness, we hud not so much noticed
these we hoped ever tbut he might
uso or occupy them ugain ; now we
know it cannot be, and this shows us
tho dreadful vacuity everywhere.
Oh, how dark and dismal corne
down tho first night shadows "alter

dreary or so long tho lickings of the

such deep silence no foosteps now on

Otic n( Hie nn nlesl Hi ell M ot e of
the iiio.l plum i.e nrgiiineiila sjoiinst
in gro slavciy in I'm t'tiilcl Mnte
us. Unit it as a trade in human
fleh, nnd the slaves being so for life,
inlcili red it 11 the fiee labor of ths
North. In addition to I hi il wna also
argued that it retarded tho industry
and development of tbo country, bo
sides being a sin in tbo sight of (iod.
Without arguing any of the side bsnea
to which the question gave rise, let US
see how lur the Coolie trade bears ro-
s hlatiee to il.ai.d how inconsirtM't
those men ure who argm d against no.
gro slavery us an interlereneo with
tree labor, and yet advocnto tho sys.
tcin of Chinese slavery which dots tho
huuie tiling.
Tho negro was a slavo for life. All
be obtained, as remuneration for .bis
labor, was victuals, clothes, nnd the
necessary cure und attention in case
of sickness. Ilis victuals wo place
eijual to ?:'.Ml per week or SlUO .ret1
year. Ilis clothes was crptul to $10
per week or till per yea, while all'
other mutters of expense, including
medical attendance, wo pluco at (iyj
more. These sums in the aggregate
amount to?;j4. The Coolie is brought
to this eounlry und hired out by con-
tractors at the raleof 8(1.(1(1 per month
aud found in boarding. This makes
t'l per year. Wo place his boarding
ul the same rate we do the negro slave,
say Si.oU per week or S:.0 per year.
Ilis Wages, (hen, would aggregate1
or $;JJ less than thul of the negro,
and consequently to I he extent of that
dillereine more inlerferonec with the
free labor of (ho country. Hut it will
be said that (he Coolio labor is free
labor Wo say that il is not. They
arc just us much slaves during the
contract which their masters buvo
mude as were the negroes Tbo only
did'ereiice i-, one is a slave lor life and
the oiher for a term of years. Hut
their interference with American labor
is more deleterious to il than was no
gro slavery, as the calculation we bavoi
mudu clearly proves.
One of the arguments used by tho
slaveholder in support ol sluvery was,
Hint tho system brought tho negroes
from Allien into a Christian country,
and therelore it was giving theso be
nighted creatures a knowledge of God
und lo that extent improving their
condition. Tho argument usod by the
advocates of C'xilie labor is precisely
tho same, nnd does seem strange thai
strenuous abolitionists should be found
on tho same side wilh slaveholder
und using the sumo argument.
Another argument used by tho
slaveholder was, that unless sluvery
was tolerated the cotton, rice and to
bacco fields would beeoino waste land,
as frco labor was not calculated to
tiiuke either of these articles remuner
ative in production. It so happens)
tbut precisely tho aatno argument irf
used by the capitalists of tho .North
who advocate Coolio labor. They
say, we are unable to mako our bnst
ih" productive unless we obtain vhcan
' labor, and ns American labor is too
j deat we must go to China and import
Coolies. So that tho only difference1
1 between them and the slaveholders in
fact is, that tho ono class went to Af-
rica for labor and tho other now go to'
t,lnna.
Ulher rtrganients equally as strong
were used in support of negro slavery
which apply w ilh ns much forco Id
the introduction of Coolies under thrf
contract system, but il is unnecessary
to refer to them Suflieo it to say
that if such labor is tolerated in the
United Slates, we may look for an erf
lire und complete chungo in our labor
system which will be anything olso
thnn beneficial lo American mechanics'
uud laboring men of every character.
