<*#ntleiuen of tue Plauter's Labor and Supplj Comp«ny, I liave a woril to sajr to yo\i ia coutinualioii of wluit 1 uaid a ie x r weeks ago, rfespectīng the himāienl ,or more uufortuii-« Son th Sea Ib--lauvleiß now ftrouud They haVe been brottghf to this country by.yon to work for you. l'ou Keiit hkips for thew;, amd, largely by ajisrepreseutation and more largely by force, at the inuzzle of guns and revolreKi, they haye beenpcrsuadtd to got into boats and were, by yoar agents, kidnupped from their homes. There are only too iaany uieu in this city who ean ttfsWy tō this "lively" īnoilo of recruiting, and the matter haa attained too mu»h nofcoriety to b« questioued. It ia well known to you that these uuiortunates are* all -heie over the petiod ol three years, at the expiration of whieh tiiue you engaged to retum Uuiui to their homei>. Many have been here over e;ght years. Nqw, you &11 got yery Biad lately heeuuae there. vere a few legitilators who wanted oall your proaperity fatr imteiūilot great. How Btendn your _lwneg, with wīih these poor people ? Is Uto be jair? great it eannot be, ; The fathers, * raothers, wives and eh\ldren of th«ae etolen people do |not know to ihiB day, for the most part, where they are, or

what hes bccome of them. AH that they know iK khat tlie Tvhite man'a orew treacherously surrouuded thfm Rnd forced them ;»way! They are penuitted to hudille togetter in the- Immigratiou Dopot when thot buil.īiog is iiot requiittl for Asibijt when arrive £re turu«tl out to aleep iu the'sīfeet. Thini of it, ye llouoiahk and Nohle Divēs; how these people, men, wouieu hu<l childreu, eren to bibes at the br&ist, must have felt Rt being turned into the street wi(!i no i"oof to sheītei thein fn'm tlie scorehiug aun by daj or the iādt» or at uight.' Think of tliis, in additton to their daily faniishiīag for vant ol food! Hnrry np gentkui.au in this riintter, bettei not !et ijt get into £he Legit;lK.ture; they migh< Jorcc you to do your duty anu yrii»t a rdpoi t thal would deal nither thoroughly. with the prineipa] actors and default«rs in tlie matter. In eouelu sion I would not have you oblivious uf tlie facj tliut tliG Ne\v Hebrides are uuder (iie protectiou ol a great navnl power;, one who will not pemi) tlie liiilpless aboiigities to be wronged. The Sheo!etic SiVnseque»t ul v.-ays had one terror for me, ai)d that w'ns "n tLe knowiedge thai there are 3,000 ijerfovme?s on tLe big diutn in th« Bftlvntiou Anny. I thought it possible that there might be too mueli mnsie. Jt seems, lio\vever, tbttt there are eSperieuces on tliīs side of eteruity Bnd in the lofty w:ilks of life, where, if a u;;inhus amhiliou enoiigli, be ean getu i",:ir i<]eA in !viv;mct of Hell reKlly is.
