		Thereafter the coolie supply for British colonies was drawn exclusively from India, until 1904, when an exception was made in the case of the Transvaal.
		Coolies are shipped for the most part from Calcutta and Madras, but of recent years large numbers bound for Mombasa and the Seychelles left from Bombay and Karachi.
		The coolies are mostly carried in small sailing vessels from the ports of Madura and Tanjore, and the number who permanently settle in Ceylon is not very great.

	The Mavens' Word of the Day
		Coolie is first found in English in the early seventeenth century, but similar words are found in Portuguese and French in the sixteenth century, which suggests that the word was common to Europeans in India at that time.
		Though coolie is usually used to refer to unskilled Indian or Chinese laborers, the word was first used in India; it was not applied to Chinese laborers until the mid eighteenth century.
		Coolie is, however, used as a racist term to refer to 'an Asian person' (with no suggestion of laboring), especially in South Africa, and this use is of course quite offensive.

		Indenture of Indian coolies was usually for a term of five years, in return for wages, certain benefits, and the cost of passage; the terms were enforceable by penal sanctions.
		Opposition in Australia to this influx of cheap labor resulted in the passage of the Emigration Restriction Act for the gradual elimination of Asians from Australia, by providing that no one should be permitted to enter the country who failed to write 50 words in any prescribed language.
		Coolie labor was important in building the first U.S. transcontinental railroad, but this type of immigration into the United States was practically ended by the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1888 and by stringent federal laws against contract laborers.

		Upon sighting an intruder(s), a Coolie lights the fuse on the large box of dynamite it always carries and rushes towards its enemy in a daring, suicidal attack.

		These fish require a well-planted tank with a fine substrate and lots of pebbles and roots to hide among.
		The Coolie Loach prefers subdued lighting; this can be achieved even in a brightly lit aquarium by a dense planting of low-growing species, such as certain Cryptocorynes, to carpet part of the substrate.
		Since this loach feeds at night, provide food just before the tank lights are switched off.
