Considr erable ingenuity and reasearch were evinced on both sides, and many of the .most prominent features of the problem were brought out with force , and clearness. , Wm.,, Howard,, and C. H. Howard ;haa ; the affirmative of the propositionwhich favored im migration, while Edwin Lent, Wm. W o o d ,*‘Chas. Tryori ' ànd‘ Frank Wood spoke * ©n the negative. Aside from this particular discussion and the arguments there adduced, the principles involved, in a deter mination of this, questioner,e among the most serious -which, this govern m ent has been-called.upon pto. de cide. r T h is question, like all,others of importance, has tw,o,sides,, There can be no doubt of the,, large and growing advantages which accrue to this country from the existing treaty with China, which, while it affords protection and certain immunities to Chinamen here, also gives pro tection to a large number o f our citizens residing in that country. It has always been* the policy o f this government not only to tolerate,' but to encourage immigration, and any departure from this doctrine would be a violation of a principle of inter national comity as oldras the consti tution itself. On the other hand1 the whole1 questiên is but a constituent of the other great problem of the relation between capital and labor. In the days when this country was sparsely populated, all classes of people were welcomed to* our shores, < and even for the purpose of building the Pa cific railroad, John Chinaman , was useful. But at this time, when commercial enterprises are so pros trated, when thousands of skillful artisans and honest laborers are out o f employment, the question as sumes a different aspect. The aver age foreigner who emigrates to this country intends to remain. . He comes to build up a home for him self anduhis family., . He,, educates his children, who become cémpo- nent factors of the body , politic, Chinamen, however, come in a different way. They are imported in ship loads by “ Chinese Compa nies\ who speculate on their labor and who chiefly reap the products o f their industry; ,j They do not in tend to remain. Every one o f them contemplates returning when 1 he shall have made1,\enough money. Our' laws forbid their naturalization; and were it otherwise, they are utter ly unfit for citizenship. T h e ir, vice and .filthiness breed disease; they are rapacious, licentious, dishonest and indecent. They bring nothing here, live upon nothing, spends Jit* but carry away a great deal. At .first one city or. State,circumscribed tfreir operations, and the forebod ings'were less ominous,,-but a , con stant influx has, so augumented their numbers that.they are already swarming our great eastern cities, and the question w.hi.cji was at, first of local interest.,-has developed .into a great domestic and international problem. r,',. _ . ‘Fully Appreciating the advantages to be derived from a continuance o f the, amicable relations existing with China, and the i mportance o f firmly? adhering to all vital or'fundamental principles of our government, we still believe that. the country owes an imperative and paramount duty to its own citizens, in protecting them from the encroachments of a pagan race whose innovatiOn^ threat en imminent danger to every person who is seeking by the, labor of , his own hands, to earn honestly and manfully his daily bread.

These are called “ cash/’ and are seldom' received*by foreign 4 ers, who, as a general rule, refuse to take them in charge. Imagine making a trade of five cents, and giving a man a fifty cent piece, then receiving in cnahge 4?50 o f these coppers. This is peculiarly-made,- having1 a square hole in the center. They are aboiit thesizeiof o u r dime pieces, and nearly ' two-thirds the thickness. Next to this comeâ the quarter of a cent, then the half cent, eight-tenths of a cent, and one and two . cent pieces. In. silver coins they have the . five, ten, twenty-five cent and one dollar pieces. Iii’gold the one, two, five, ‘ten; and twénty dollars, which are very'pretty coin ages indeed. Next to ¡this comes the government series o f paper money, in various denominations, ranging from live cents to one' hun dred dollars. This money is made on quite inferior paper to ours, and from general appearance will not last like the'American money.
