tion." Now, to our mind, this passage. lends one to suppose that the fallest re- ciprocity existed on the part of Chios towards British and other foreign immi grants to China, and that Chinese may bave similar cause to hold meetings and to consider the question, how, in their own cities and towns, the immigration of foreigners may be best regulated and restricted! It has always seemed to us to be the most one-sided way of putting the case, to harp upon the proposition that the Treaties with China should be revised on this matter, when the reason- able way of settling the question would be to insist upon the same privileges boing extended to foreigners in all parts of Chinn as are claimed by Chinese in foreign countries. There is room enough for all, if only those rights to settle and trade peacently were reciprocal ou all
sides.
Until this consummation is reached, it is illogical, from a political out of view, to deny to the Austra- fians (we do not say to the Californians) the right of asserting their power to restrict We, have, however, a strong conviction that the vast plains of both Australia and America will yet be irrigated and opened up through the manual labour of the Chinese Davvy; and this, as we hinted some time since, will eventually prove the key to the difficulty of Chinese emigra- tion, at least of the larger and more important branch of the movement. Mr Sharp seems to have nearly succeeded in establishing a fairly reputable cha- racter for the Chinaman as a citizen, and his remarks in this connection are in the main commendable and just. The "Heathen Chines" can scarcely bó sx- pected to assume a very high place as à citizen until he is raised by contact somewhat nearer to the Western level; bat he is by no means the grovelling, worthless monster depicted by the anti- Chinese agitators of the Pacific Slope.
