The Rev. author whose benevolent inves
tigations among the California .qhinrae hava
done so much to spread a true idea of .their
condition over the country, discourses In the
AprU number of the Overland upon the sit
nation of the women of that race who have
strayed to our shores. This paper accounts
for the generally poor character of the Chi
nese femalcß in California by a variety of
suggestions; the unwillingness of Chinese
emigrants to bring their wiveß, the low con
dition of female intelligence in Asia,the help
lessness and difficulties of the women who
have arrived, tho violences of Asiatic pirates,
and the habit among the poor Chinese of ,
considering female children as an incum
brance, and selling them to any irresponsible
hurcbaser. At the same time he deprecates |
our judgment of Chinese female honor and j
virtue as inferior to our own; he
insists that Chinese girls are edu- ,
cated at home with the utmost care
in modest and retiring habits. He has a
touching story of a wife braving the baas of
caste and tempting the ocean alone to come
and live with her husband in this country;
and another of a wretched brother writing
from the Shen Ling district a proclamation
which has been posted in San Francisco, con
taining a dark story of war, pillage, violence,
and the committal of a pure girl to prostitu
tion in America. From the factß contained
•in this article it seems evident that the setting
of Asiatic women on our coasts should be
peremptorily forbidden; for they are sure to
be of the order of victims, a Chinaman never
bringing biß legal wife to this country, which
he always means to quit as soon as possible.
At, the same time there is, fortu
nately, sufficient evidence of occasional
virtne and undeserved misfortune
among this class in California
to enlist the sympathies of the good. We
await the time when these Chinese articles
from the Overland shall be gathered into a
book; they would make a useful and enter
taining collection of authentic evidence on a
new subject. We cannot desoribe at length
the various matters treated of in this well
ventilated, wholesome and spicy magazine.
It is simply irresistible. The pictures of life
in foreign plaees, such as Panama, the Fiji
Islands, the Texan Prairies, Montana, are
more life-like than photographs, and more
absorbing than the voyageß of Binbad. We
can pay the Overland the compliment of de
claring that no one of the monthlies to which
our desk is habituated has become so much
like a bad habit—so near, dear, pleasant and
hard to part with.—Published by Roman &
Co., San Francisco.
The Journal of the Franklin Institute,
for April, edited by Prof. Henry Morton,
contains the usual variety of scientific infor
mation, popularly treated; the editorial com
pilation of Items and Novelties gives space to
sixteen minor subjects in mechanics and
natural science : Mr. Robert F. Fairthorne,
in a letter to the Editor, describes a new
cement or luting,invented by him, which wil'
resist sulphuric, muriatic or nitric acid; this
paste is made of silicate of soda and powdered
E i» HH Civil and Mechanical Engineering,
Mechanics, Physics, OhemUtry and Meteor
ology, are severally treated in a number of
esßays by variouß contributors, and Educa -
tional Matters and the proceedings of the
Institute are noted by the Editor : the num
ber contains five wood-euts and four plates.
There is always pith and strength in the
numbers of The American Exchange and
Review: among the extended articles in the
May issue we find interesting accounts of
Wine in the East, the Fiji Islanders, and the
Revelations of the Spectroscope. The de
partment of Mining and Metallurgy, ably
edited by Dr. OBborn, of Lafayette College,
contains the latest discoveries and news; and
the departments of Insurance, Money, Trans
•vjjprtation, snd Arts and Patents, severally
: embody information that can hardly be found
80 well digested elsewhere. This is a Review
that one cannot take up without lighting on
something that one has not thought of before.

The New Eclectic for May has a portrait
of Berthold Auerbach, the same as that pub
lished in Leypoldt’s edition of his current
novel. It continues this author’s exquisite
romance of “Little Barefoot,” and likewise
presents another instalment of Trollope's
“Phineas Finn.’’ The essays are the best
and latest that have appeared in the whole
periodical press, including the Eaglish Re
views, the Overland Monthly , Appleton's
Journal , aDd even tne Ration; with trans
lations irom French authorities, and Die
Oartenlaube: the selected book-notices,
mißcellany, and all the short clippings are
alwayß the best of their kind, and very fresh.

ART ITEMS.
—The sale of the Avery collection of
water color drawings took place Wed
nesday evening at the gallery No. 82
Fifth avenue. The competition for the better
specimens offered was frequently quite brisk,
and the prices obtained were generally good.
A “Street in Dieppe,” by Maroy of Paris,
about 8 by 14 inches, brought $6O; “A Cha
teau near Macon,” by J. B. Hubert, about 12
inches square, sold for $33; “liob Roy” —
small—by De Keyser of Antwerp, brought
$4O; and a Frencn smuggling boat, by Le
Bas of Paris, the same price. “Telling For
tunes,” a little group by Ferdinand Marohn,
sold for $42; a view of Arquille Verte, Gha
mouny, by Hedwig Calmelet, brought $120;
“The Three Ages,” by Rocco, about 8 by 10
inches, sold for $100; a group of flowers by
Francois Rivoire, about 12 by 20 inches,
brought $i8o; “The Bonfire,” by Edouard
FriSre, about 10 by 12 inches, commanded
$l6O, and a small head of an Italian girl, by
Seth Chevey of Boston, brought $l6O.
—Among the American artists in London
few are exciting more attention among the
critical, by their works, than Mr. George
Boughton, who has already gained a good re
putation in both countries by the freshness and
originality with which he managed to treat so
old a subject as the Pilgrims Lauding at Ply
mouth. Those who enjoyed a sight of that
will be glad to learn tnat Mr. Boughton has
just completed, tor the Royal Academy Ex
hibition in May, a large picture, founded on
some lines by Longfellow describing Standish
and his men, led by a friendly Indian, going
' forth to intercept the savage warriors who
meant to attack them. Thoße who have been
to Plymouth will recognize at once in the
environment the long level beach beneath
the rising ground which the pilgrims are
about to ascend. The settlement itself
1 is out of sight. The eea, sky, sand and dis
-1 tant wood, cloudlike in the misty distance,
comprise the entire scenery of the piece.
Tnere is no green leaf, and nothing nearer a
flower than the brown and yellow lichens on
a rock in the foreground. Yet there is a
certain tenderness in the light pervading the
picture. The Work is remarkable for its
nobie simplicity and its moral impressive
ness. Here are a dozen Saxon men in homely
gray garb, the only signs of humanity againßt
the misty white of sea and sky in the back
ground, with whom destiny marches. There
is no fine military array, no glitter of armor,
no proud flag; only a few hardy men on a
lone beach who look to the immediate business
in hand, and have not the slightest notion of
I cutting a figure in history, or on the walls of
j exhibitions. This is the way destiny moves,
i so slowly on the unobserved landmarks
! which kings and peers paBB by to
be treasured at last by Art and Ro
mance. Only in the strong, determined
i faces of Blandish and his men do you discern
i the vast historic distance from which the
j little procession has come. From an artistic
| point of view one finds the artist's felicitous
; tact in the fine color which he has got for the
! Puritan group, which would naturally be of
sombre costume, by depicting the red skin
aDd savage trappings of the half-nude Indian
who leads them, and constitutes the most
prominent figure. This lithe fellow is a
model Indian, the perfection of animal repose
and strength. The whole is a work which
might almost reverse the saying of Goethe,
i that no young man can be a master, because
youth cannot have repose. The sincerity and
1 iruth which characterize the paintings of this
young American artist are visible in every
\ part of a work which several connoisseurs
i have already pronounced one of which Ame
• ricans may be proud. Mr.Boughton has also
prepared for the Exhibition a very charming
! picture of peasants in-Brittany worshipping
at a wayside crucifix, on which are bound
small bunches of wheat, to indicate thankful
ness for the harvest.
Death ol a Vencruale Bostonian.
Mr. Samuel Krolhlngham died calmly, as one
falls asleep from the pleasant weariness of a
long journey, yesterday afternoon, at the resi
dence of his son-in-law, Rev. Chandler Robbins,
D. D. He will be remembered by a few as en
gaged for a short lime in mercantile pursuits; by
more as ilie Cashier of the United Slateß Branch
Bank in this city; and by a still larger number as
President of the Slate Bank; and all who remem
ber him in the days of his activity will bear wit
ness to his ability, his unswerving integrity, and
bis conscientious devotion to every duly.
'His i urly manhood and his maturity were
marked by quietness und efficiency, free from all
ostentation, seeking only to be prompt, diligent
und thorough in the discharge of all his obliga
tions to the community, nls friends and his
family. When, after a period of faithful serving
® and well-earned prosperity and enjoyment, he
was visited by the severest of bereavements,bowed
by It firuiity and stricken wild blindness, he was
found e qnal in the strength of bis faith and tho
hopefulness of bis affections to the long hoars of
feebleness, durkness und trial. He was submis

Ket West, April 29.—The following Important
despatch has been received here by mail, from
Bayamo, Cuba:
Count Valmaaeda.tbe commander of the Span
ish forces In the Eastern Department, has issued
a proclamation, whereof the following are tbe
chief features:
Firtt —Every native male over 15 years ol age,
fonnd away from his residence without sufficient
cause, will be executed.
Second —Every uninhabited dwelling and every
inhabited dwelling where a white flag Is andis
playcd, will bo reduced to ashes.
Third —All women away from their houses will
come to Bayamo or Jlguari, or they will be
brought by force.
The proclamation is dated at Bayamo, April 4.
Havana, April 28, via Ket West, iprll 2‘J.—
The second battalion of volnnteers, commanded
by Colonel Zeulula, and forming tbe garrison of
Fort Cabana; in tile harbor of Havana, having
refused to obey an order for tbe release of a
prisoner, Gen. Dulce and Btaff were obliged to
proceed to the fort In full uniform. To effect a
change in the disposition, the Captain-General
made an address to the volnnteers, when they
suffered the prisoner to depart under an escort of
government troops.
This action ol the volnnteers has occasioned
great Indignation, on the part of the public, and
threats are made against the Second Battalion In
caec they lay down their arms, which is not, how
ever, anticipated.
The revolution in tbe Eastern Department Is
training strength. The Spanish troops In that
portion ol the island arc suffering greatly from
eickncss.
The Cabans are besieging and constantly ha
rassing them, and tbe capture of various con
voys causes a: scarcity of supplies and ammuni
tion in tlic Spanish ranks.

pear to desire peace, ondareprofnse in promises
of future good conduct, still are Only waiting for
