THE EVENING STAR. THE LOVERS. BY J0uN — bt Joth to part! How fond to meet Had we two used to be! At sunset with what net haeey feet T hasten'd unto thee!

Byt now my very dreams forget hat witching look to traog, Though there thy beauty lingers yet, Tewenca's strangers fee thee. Coo.igs in Puuu—There « —There are twenty thousand Chinese slaves now in Peru, and thedemand con- tinues. The last cargo of these coolies was landed abouta month ago, and they sold for four hun- dred dollars eas; i the term of servitude being eight years, the wages four dollars a month; two sultof clothes in the year, and two pounds of rice per day. It cost the trader’ about thirty-five dollars to land a Chinaman on this soast. and as he is pretty certain of getting three or four hundred dollars for tim, the profits are enor- mous. A Callao letter in the Charleston Mercury says “the Chinamen are induced tocome by a small advance of money—a fortune in their eyes— for man is thecheapest production in the Celestial Set ea labor-is worth buta little to him ‘o this small sum of money adds a judicious mixture of extravenede spouses for the future inthe new land. How many of these promises are fulfiiled we may judge by the bumber of Chinamen who commit suicide. A man who lived at the Chincha [sland a few a ago cited an instance of seventeen of these tunates hanying themselves in one night in Ne Same room.’’ IN. P. Willis, in one of his letters from out West says—‘‘A startling effect at Chicago, for the traveller eye, isthe iden crossing of the princi. pal streets by vessels and apparently with Bo more {uterru oe to the moving tide of vehi. cles than would be made by the tranverse passin, ofa railear.

Mr. Becker rose, and discovered a dark object moving around in a cluster of pear trees. He levelled a shot gun loaded with pigeon shot and fired, intending to frighten the robber. Immediately he saw a man run and climb over the fence, on Ywhich he fired, again over the man’s head. Supposing the fellow had escaped, Mr. Becker returned tothe bed, and all remained quiet; but at daylight the corpse of Maude was found some forty or fifty yards dis- tant ving on the sidewalk. By its side wasa handkerchief full of pears from Becker's trees ‘The coroner's jury found that the killing, though unpremeditated, was justifiable under the cir- cumstances. A Navoutr Horse.—We saw a naughty thing doue by a borse the other day. We were crossing over to the metropolis in one of the Jersey City Ferry boats, which, as usmal. was crowded.
