Mr. Sampson. residing in North Adams. Mass.. who was conducting a boot and shoe business in that enterprising locality. found himself unable. or at least unwilling. to pay to his white employds the sums which they demanded: he accordingly sent an agent to California and imported a number of Chinese operatives. The pictures to which I allude illustrate the Mongolians at work in a Massachusetts shoe shop. But. Mr. President. it turned out in a very few days that there was a commotion in that good old Commonwealth. and the Chinamen who had been thus imported found it well to leave at a speed much greater than that displayed at the time of their advent.
