" Soldiers of the Army of the Union,—Though on last New Year's Day the horizon of our country's happiness was somewhat darkened by the rising clouds of disunion, yet those were comparatively in the minority who did not believe that, ere spring had ripened into summer, the threatened storm would be averted. But this belief, this hope, proved fallacious, and summer was not here before the furious tempest seemed to be sweeping away the very foundation of our liberties. Almost up to this time the Government, relying on the justice of its cause, and a knowledge of its real superiority in power over its enemies, refrained from any vigorous vindication of itself until the belching batteries of Charleston harbour rained their iron hail on Fort Sumpter, to its reduction, " On the 13th of April last the nation held its breath as the lightning flashed in all directions the dire intelligence that the Charleston batteries had opened fire upon Major Anderson and his little band of heroes. And the nation's heart thrilled proudly as the wires kept telling, from time to time, that Major Anderson, amidst showers of shot and shell, was still bravely battling at his post, and that, above the lurid flashes of his cannon, could still be seen floating the bright flag of our fathers. But the hope thus awakened was gradually quenched, as word presently came that some of Sumpter's guns were silenced; then, that the fort was on fire; then, that the walls had been breached ; and, finally, that the banner of the stars had been pulled down and the post surrendered. Soldiers, on that eventful day you were citizens, pursuing the various arts and occupations of peace; but as the flag of Washing ton, of 1776, of your, own hearts, came fluttering from its staff, amid the smoke and flames of Fort Sumpter, you became heroes. A few hours later came the call for 75,000 three-months volunteers, and you nobly left home and dear ones to rush to the, defence of our threatened capital, some of you coming even without arms, content if only your dead bodies should hinder for a moment the advance of the foeman. As the full extent of the peril to which our country was exposed became known, however, this number was found inadequate to the accomplishment of the great end aimed at. More brave hearts and sturdy arms were wanted, and regiment after regiment was speedily added to your ranks, until you now number over 500,000 men! The length of the enlistment was, also, too short ; and it was announced that perhaps service for three years, instead of three months, will be required from you. But this only increased your ardour, and you have determined that your breasts shall be bared for the protection of your country as long as she shall need. " Soldiers, when summoned from the mountains of Western Virginia to take command of the Army of the Potomac, I felt overwhelmed with mingled surprise and gratitude for the signal honour thus conferred upon me ; but the pleasant burden was doubly increased when, upon the retirement of Gen. Scott—the war-worn warrior of our country's battles—the full command of the armies of the United States devolved upon me. Hesitation and self-distrust might well accompany the assumption of so vast a responsibility, but, placing my trust in God, and for the rest confiding in your loyalty, dis cipline, and courage, I put my hand to the plough, and, Heaven helping me, I \sill never look back until our country's flag floats triumphantly over every foot of her soil, or my body lies stiffening upon the field of strife. "For some months past you have, by constant drills, skirmishes, reviews, and other means, been prepared for the grand contest, the opening of which now depends entirely upon the movements or de signs of the enemy, and may, therefore, come at any moment. The inexperience and treachery that in the opening of the present campaign caused your reverses, have been, as far as human judgment could direct, successfully combated ; the first by con tinual practice, and the last by continual vigilance. "Soldiers, our cause is just, and God is on our side. The decisive moment is rapidly approaching, the notes of the bugle may soon ring in your ears. And, soldiers, when the bugle does call you to action, then let every man, taking his comrade's hand, swear by the days of '76, and by the dear ores at home, to press onward, right onward, to victory or the grave ! Remember, also, even amidst the darkest carnage of the battlefield, for what you are fighting ; remember that you are not mere executioners, but generous, noble-hearted warriors, battling only for the laws of the land, and not for gain or conquest. "Soldiers, when you have accomplished all that is required of you, when your bayonets have enforced obedience to the Constitution and laws throughout the length and breadth of the land, and have rescued your brethren from the deeply-laid plans and artful machinations of a few designing traitors, then you will feel the proud satisfaction of having faithfully preserved the hallowed Ark of the Covenant, left to us as a precious inheritance by Washington and his illustrious compeers. And in future years, wh en chance or fortune may scatter you throughout your own and other lands, men will point to you and say He is a brave man; he was of the army of the Union.' " Soldiers, comrades, I have said enough. I feel proud of you. I know you are b rave, you aro pa t r i o ts, you will conquer or you will die !" THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, JANUARY 18, 1862.

Schomberg, superintendent of the steam reserve in the Medway at Chatham, has re signed that appointment and retired from the com mand of the Cumberland, 70, guardship of the Steam Reserve, he having been appointed by the Admi ralty to the command of the Edinburgh, 6), 450 horse power, employed on the coastguard service at Qucensferry, Scotland. The paddlewheel steam frigate Sidon, 22, Capt. Richard B. Crawford, 10 days from Simon's Bay for Portsmouth, touched at the island of St. Helena on the 4th of December. The preparation and despatch of munitions of war for North America and the West Indies is still con tinued at Woolwich with unabated expedition. Yesterday the fine screw steam transport Spartan, Capt. Wiggins, laden with 1,200 tons of shot, shell, and other heavy stores, left the Royal Arsenal Pier, and was towed down to Greenhithe to bs adjusted for sea. The Parthenon, Capt. Robinson, freighted likewise with heavy war stores of a similar descrip tion for Jamaica, yesterday hove off to the buoy, to take in her coals and water in preparation for de parture. Her Majesty's screw steam storeship Adventure, recently undocked and in basin at Woolwich, yes terday commenced receiving a set of new boilers and machinery. The screw steam sloop Rapid, 11, was yesterday reported ready for commission at Woolwich; and the paddle steamer Vesuvius will be also ready in a few days. _ The Galatea, 26, 800 horse power, moored near the entrance to the Medway, had her compasses adjusted yesterday, preparatory to leaving Ply mouth. A navigating party, consisting of 150 seamen and riggers, selected from Chatham and Sheerness dockyards, have been placed under the orders of Flag-Lieut. T. K. Mackenzie, of the For midable, 84, to assist in completing the frigate, and navigating her round to the westward. Owing to the hurry in which she was sent away from Chat ham, to allow the iron ship Defence taking her place, she is still somewhat incomplete in several of her fittings, especially in her rigging, contrasting, in the latter respect, rather unfavourably with the screw frigate Severn, 51. Altogether, however, the Galatea is the finest frigate which has ever been despatched from Chatham. The iron masts for the iron steam frigate Resist ance, 18, 600 horse power, arrived at Chatham dock yard yesterday, the vessel conveying them having been towed round from the Thames by the paddle wheel steamer Widgeon. The aggregate weight of the three masts and bowsprit for the Defence is be tween 40 and 50 tons, the mainmast and fittings weighing 16 tons, the foremast 15 tons, and mizen mast 7 tons. An improvement is to be effected in the bowsprit, which will be constructed to slide in and out like a telescope, so as not to interfere with the action of the ship when used as a ram in run ning down any hostile vessel at sea. There can be no doubt, however, that experience will convince the Admiralty of the absolute necessity of doing away with the bowspirit altogether from the iron steam ships, and fitting them with a fourth mast. The exactly like her s ßesistance , i t s h e t o p b e e fe b n a c r e q . o e rigged, The paddlewheel steamer Fearless, Master Com mander W. Taylor, having completed her repairs at Sheerness dockyard, arrived at Chatham yesterday with a party of naval invalids from the fleet at the Nore. The invalids were admitted into Melville Hospital. By the death of Admiral Sir Edward D. King, K.C.H., Capt. the Hon. Josh. Denman, in command of the Victoria and Albeit steam yacht, obtains his flag rank, and in consequence the command of her Majesty's yacht is at the disposal of the Admiralty. The gallant officer was appointed to the royal yacht on the late Lord Adolphus Fitzclarence being made Rear-Admiral. Owing to the promotion of Capt. the Hon. Josh. Denman a vacancy arises among the naval aides de-camp to the Queen. The following appointments were made yesterday at the Admiralty ;—Capt. J. F. B. Wainwright, to the Shannon, commissioned; Capt. Henry C. Otter, Lieut. W. Chimmo, and Lieut. Edward W. Hawes, to the Fisgard, additional for surveying service ; Commander Richmond Moore, to the Shannon; Sub- Lieut. Frederick Walter, to the Nile, supernumerary for disposal; the Hon. E. M. D. Browne, midship man, to the Edgar; T. H. Broughton and C. G. Hunt, midshipmen, to the Orpheus ; A. Anderson, H. Noel, R.

Yesterday afternoon his Grace the Duke of De vonshire was formally installed as Chancellor of the University of Cambridge, in the room of his late. Royal Highness the Prince Consort, at Devonshire house, Piccadilly, in the presence of a large con course of members of the Senate. The gentlemen who formed the deputation— doctors of divinity, doctors of laws, and masters of arts—assembled at the Burlington Hotel, Cork street, and thence walked in procession, to Devon shire-house, headed by the different officers of the university, bearing maces and other insignia of authority. The doctors wore their scarlet robes, and the other members of the Senate were attired in academic costume, and their appearance in the street soon attracted a large crowd of spectators. The ceremony took place in one of the splendid drawing rooms of the mansion, along which the de putation ranged themselves in two rows ; and on the noble duke, 'who wore the richly embroidered robes of the Chancellor of the University, walking down the centre to his seat at the end of the cham ber, he was greeted with enthusiastic applause. The persons present included the Bishop of Llan daff, Lord Monteagle, the Hon. Spring Rice, the Rev. J. Barlow, F.R.S., the Rev. A. B. Suter, the Right Hon. S. H. Walpole, M.P., Dr. Paget, Dr. Aldis, the Rev: Sir Nicholas Chinnery, the Rev. J. Russell Stock, the Rev. Joseph Brown, rector of Christchurch, Southwark; the Rev. Canon Lens dale, the Rev. C. J.

The VICE-CHANCELLOR of the UNIVERSITY, the Rev. Dr. Phillips, President of Queen's College, said—My Lord Duke, it is my duty to present to your grace the letters patent of the office of Chan cellor of the University of Cambridge, to which you have been unanimously elected by the Senate. Your grace was pleased to comply with the strong wish expressed by a great and influential portion of the university that you should accept the office which was rendered vacant by the death of, the much lamented Prince Consort. Permit me to say to your grace, that deeply as that mournful event is deplored by the country at large, nowhere has it caused greater sensation and pro duced more heartfelt grief than in the University of Cambridge. (Cheers.) During the years his Royal Highness was the head of our academic body he watched with solicitude every change which was introduced for the purpose of promoting its welfare, and in general he took a lively interest in all its proceedings. But that Prince is removed from us. It is better that we should submit with Christian fortitude to the will of God than to indulge in ex pressions of idle regret. We are required by our statutes to fill up the void so painfully caused within a very limited period, and the acceptance by your grace of the office of Chancellor has contri buted to raise us from the grief which the loss of that illustrious Prince has produced. Of public men eminent for their rank, their virtues, or their deeds, the university felt that the selection of your grace to fill the high office of Chancellor was the most appropriate. It has thus secured for its head a nobleman not only distinguished for the virtues which adorn private life, but also a nobleman who has himself won the highest honours which it has to confer on its meritorious youth. (Cheers.) We feel that your grace has by these academic triumphs set an example most worthy of imitation by the youth of the aristocracy of England. (Cheers.) I am glad to be able to state to your grace that that example has not been 'without its effect, and that since your grace's time there have been others born to the inheritance of coronets who passed through the Hniversity and carried away with them high academic distinctions. (Cheers.) We aro aware that your grace has throughout, both publicly and privately, taken a deep interest in the progress of science, and we feel that in consequence of that interest, as well as by your academic achievements, you have nobly sustained the name of your illus trious house, which for a century past has been so well known as associated with scientific dis covery. (Cheers.) To your grace it will not be a matter of surprise—it may be one of some plea sure—to know that the same activity which has marked the busy world without during the last quarter of a century has also manifested itself within the precincts of the university. During that period the area of university education has been at different times extended. New sub jects of study have been introduced and new honours and trip3ses established, by which fresh paths are open to our youths for academic dis tinction and reward. Your grace is doubtless aware that the constitution of the University of Cam bridge as well as those of its colleges, have recently undergone by legislative enactment considerable change. It is hoped—it is certainly desired—by a vast majority of those who have spent their lives in the service of the university, that whilst that change was intended to adapt the ancient institu tions of Cambridge to the circumstances of modern society, it may still be found in most of its essential features not to be inconsistent with the principles on which those institutions were founded. (Cheers.) II hare now only to express my earnest wish that it PRICE..... ~ ..4d. STAMPED ....sd. may please God to grant that your grace may enjoy many years of life to hold the office of Chancellor ; and I hope that this new trust will be a source of some satisfaction to yourself, as I am persuaded it will be of honour and of advantage to our univer sity. (Loud applause.) The SENIOR PROCTOR (the Rev. W.Ethety, of Corpus Christi College) then read the patent of ap pointment which was in Latin, and confided to his grace all the powers which the university could confer upon the chancellor. The oath was then administered to the noble duke by the Vice-Chancellor in the following form " Dabis fidem to bene et fideliter prre3titurum omnia gum speetant ad officinal Cancellarii demi ea Cantabrigiensis." His GRACE responded, " Ita do fidein," and then took his seat upon the throne. _ _ _ The PußLic ORATOR (Mr. W. G. Clark, of Trinity) delivered a Latin oration, congratulating the noble Duke upon his appointment as Chancellor. He addressed his grace as follows ;—Munus, quod suffragis unanimis destinaveramus, certiores facti to non abnuere, adsumus hodie ut solemni more in auguremui, to scilicet anetoritate summa induamus, in locum illius Principis quem iniquo fate ab rentum, et universe gens, et academia nostra, ut viium prmcipue celuerat, ita nuns prrecipue deplorat. Tam vero et tibi et nobis gra tins futurum erat, moram interponere, per aliquod temporis spatium curulem sellum vacantem contemplari, mcerori desiderioque indulgere ; Sed vetant statute, sed maturate opus est; capita enim suo orbata, neque alius cujus vis negotii capax eat academia, neque etiam potest, quod, primum pietatis est officium, ad Reginam suam tanti societatem dolo ris et fausta in posterum vote literis rite conscriptis mandare. Quod cum proximo curandum sit, nunc ne extra ordinem prrecipiamus, neque enim par est initia novi muneris omnibus minus latis contristare, et persuasum habemus non immoderate luctu sed ipsius consilia revocando, ipsiusimitando exemplum, ipsius operum, si quid inceptum modo ante imper fectum reliquit, ad eulmen perducendo, optimi viri memorise optima consulendum esse. Nobis igitur, amisso duce, ante omnia curio erat virum exquirere dignissimum qui ilii sufficeretur. Nimirum permul tis alumnis academia censetur, his propter locum et natales, illis literaram atque artium scientia illustri bus, to autem, utlique ornatum laude, cmteris, ut par est, preetulit ; to Cancellarium salutat, magna cum fiducia, si quam identidem disciplince vel studio rum mutationem tempus et ratio flagitet, to provi dum consilii auctorem, sive aliquando jura ex an tiquo stabilitadefendere oporteat, to acrem fortemque esse adfuturum patronum. (Cheers.) The Duke of DEVONSHIRE replied as follows : Vice-Chancellor and Gentlemen of the Senate, — The ceremonies which in conformity with ancient usage are observed on the installation of chancellor having been completed, I present myself to you as your chancellor, to discharge the duty which first devolves upon me—the duty of offering you my grateful acknowledgments for the high distinction of which by an unanimous vote you have pronounced me to be worthy. (Cheers.) The language in which my election has been officially announced to me, as well as that which the vice-chancellor has just ad dressed to me, leave no doubt in my mind as to the reasons which influenced your choice. Undoubtedly I must attribute my position to-day principally to the academic success which I had the good fortune to achieve at the close of my university career. That success was in itself an ample, and more than ample reward for any diligence I may have exercised in studies which were congenial to my inclination, (Hear, hear.) I had never expected that my con duct as a student would, after the lapse of 30 years, be still remembered, and would be considered as a sufficient qualification for the highest honour which it is in the power of the university to bestow. The vice-chancellor has said other things of a very flat tering nature; but upon matters of personal charac ter it is always irksome and unwe!come to dwell, and I would not have touched on them had I not felt that I could not, without disrespect to him, have left them altogether unnoticed. I now come to a more painful subject. We must all of us be deeply impressed by the peculiarly mournful cha racter of the circumstances under which I have been chosen. Rarely could the election of a chancellor have taken place in a season of deeper gloom. In the long catalogue of chancellors who during the lapse of centuries have been placed at the head of this university, can be found the names of some of the most eminent personages —some of the most distinguished statesmen who figure in the pages of English history; but it may well be questioned whether the office at any time was more appro priately filled than by my immediate predecessor, the late Prince Consort, whose premature death has excited such universal sorrow among all classes throughout the country. The active interest he always took in every pursuit which tends to elevate and adorn mankind, his powerful and cultivated intellect, his virtuous and blameless life, surely peculiarly fitted him to be the head of this ancient establishment of learning. (Cheers.) It is difficult to speak in exaggerated terms of the loss you have sustained in being deprived of a chancellor on whose sympathy you could always depend, and on whose sound and sagacious advice in any emergency you could with confidence rely. The period of his chancellorship has been prematurely cut short ; it will never be forgotten in the history of the uni versity. (Applause.) The vice chancellor and the public orator have spoken of those improvements and alterations which have been recently introduced in the system of the university education. Of those improvements the late Prince Consort was no mere observer—he actually cooperated in their introduction. Whilst he recognised the great claims which this university has to be considered the patron of learning and science, he felt that the time was come when the importance of other branches of study to which it had not hitherto devoted its attention should be fully acknowledged, and the study of them encouraged. I feel it is no light honour to have been elected his successor. I feel that the post to which you have summoned me, as the successor of one who so admirably discharged the duties of the office, is an arduous one. I cannot hspe to repair your loss, but I shall endeavour, to the best of my ability, to follow the excellent ex ample he has set me, and any assistance it may be in my power to contribute towards further advances in that good path which the university has lately pursued with so much zeal and diligence, and of which she has also cheerfully approved, shall be freely given. From early associations, as well as from a sense of the favours and benefits conferred upon me, I must always entertain feelings of am the strongest attachment to this university; but v convinced that you would not e xpect to regard it with that blind and tion which would make me indiff erent or hostile to (Applause.) Id o not other institutions founded in more recent times for exclusivei nor wish ene mr: the promotion of learning• wish to forget—it almost seems to me my duty to remind you—that for sev eral years' held th e hi g h est office in another university—the University of Lon dou—an institution demanded, it appeared to me, by the state of so s ociety and by the circu ms t ances and opinions of the times in which we live. Witb that university I am still connected as a member of its senate, and I should not do justice to my own feel ings if I did not avow that I take a warm interest in its success. (Cheers.) You have placed me in this high office with a full knowledge of that con nexion ; and allow me to say that it gives me great satisfaction to find that it is not regarded with disapprobation, nor considered as in any respect disqualifying me for the position to which you have elected me, and elected, I know, in the full con viction that my best energies will be devoted to your service. I trust that your expectations will never be disappointed, and that you will always find me a faithful ',guardian of those rights which you possess for the public advantage, and which are essential to the due exercise of the functions en- A TRAFALGAR HERO. John Fea, one of the few remaining Trafalgar heroes, died on Sunday evening, at the venerable age of 95. He was born in Orkney, and was great grandson of John Fea, of Clestran, who was an ex tensive landed proprietor. His great-grand-uncle, also of the Orkneys, captured the notable pirate Gow, an account of whom maybe seen in Peterkin's Notes. The property belonging to his great grand father having been lost in his father's minority, be was brought up in childhood by the Trails of Ork ney. When a boy of eight years he fled from the roof of his guardians, and embarked on board a merchant man. Having served an . apprenticeship in the merchantman, he was pressed as an ablebodied seaman in the naval service during the Peninsular war. He served under Nelson at the battle of Tra falgar on board the Indefatigable, commanded by Captain Graham Moore, brother of Sir John Moore, the hero of Corunna. Fea had the good fortune to come out of that fiery ordeal unscathed. He was also at the taking of three Spanish galleons laden with gold and silver. Ono of the three having been blown up during the engagement, the remaining two were taken as prizes to England. Having been pressed against his will, and not liking the service, Fea embraced the first opportunity to desert. The consequence of this step was that ha lost all partici pation in the prize-money, which was c:)nsiderabk, was debarred from applying for a pension, and pre cluded from enjoying so much as the honors of wear ing a medal, which he would otherwise have done. While he was in the merchant service he had the misfortune to be wrecked on the coast of Guinea. During all his voyages (and some of his cruises ex tended over a period of five years) he never had the ill-luck to receive a single mishap, save that once, during a storm, while aloft, he was struck on the foot by a yard-arm, which left a mark through life. Quitting the seafaring life, he entered the employ ment of the Forth and Clyde Canal Company, in whose service he a mtinued 48 years, during which time he proved himself a faithful servant—Falkirk, Herald. THE LATE PRINCE CONSORT.—A meeting, con y-red by the Mayor, was held in the committee-room of the Town Hall yesterday at noon, to consider the desirability of the erection of a suitable memorial of his late Royal High ness the Prince Consort. A committee was appointed to consider the most suitable form of memorial, and to report to an adjourned meeting. The general opinion of the meeting appeared to be in favour of a statue.—Birmingham paper. [ADVTIRTISEMENT].—HoIIpway's Ointment and Pills.— Cheer Up.—Sufferers from Rheumatism need not despond till a trial has been given to these restorative remedies. Fomentation with warm 'cyder and friction with this in valuable Ointment, are the severest antagonists to Rheu matism and Gout. The inflammation of the joints soon yields to this treatment. After rubbing in Holloway's Ointment and taking his Pills fora few days, the throbbing pain, heat, and swelling begin to subside, the fever de creases, and the patient feels he can move without agony, and sleep calmly without dislocating starts. Holloway's Pills contribute to disp e l the rheu ma ti c p r i nc ipl e f rom th e s ystem, facilitate the present recovery, successfully ward off any return of the attack,' and confer flexibility and strength upon the injured joint. THE ARMY His Royal Highness the General Commanding in-Chief has issued instructions, through Col. Bing ham, Deputy Adjutant-General, for the following removals of batteries and detachments of the Royal Artillery to take place on the Ist of Feb. next : Six officers and 350 non-commissioned officers and gunners to proceed from the first division of the de pot brigade, Royal Artillery, at Sheerness, to Shoe buryness, to go through an extended course of in struction in the theory and practice of the Arm strong ordnance, as carried out at the school of gunnery. A detachment of 150 gunners with three officers will, on the same day, proceed from Shoe buryness to Sheerness, under the command of Major Cookwdrthy, Indian Artillery. A detachment of 200 gunners are to be despatched from the division at Warley to Sheerness, for the purpose of qualify ing for removal to Shoeburyness. They will be re placed at Warley by 200 recruits from headquarters at Woolwich. By the system of frequent removals of the officers and men the whole of the depot bri gade will thus receive a scientific course of instruc tion in the use of the rifled ordnance—a most im portant consideration when it is remembered that the smooth-bore ordnance is being gradually super seded on our forts and batteries and at the princi pal garrisons by the Armstrong guns. The 45th Regiment is held in readiness to pro ceed to Ireland, very probably early next week. Major Daniell and Major Laurie, of the Staff in British North America, who sailed for Canada in the steam transport Adelaide, which has put back to Plymouth disabled, as mentioned in The Sun of the 16th inst., will probably sail for A mer i ca by the next mail steamer. As nearly all the barracks in Plymouth garrison probable th a t th e 15th Regi are occupied, it is ment, on board the Adelaide, will during her re pairs be berthed in one of the hulks in Hamoaze. She was under orders to be placed yesterday (Fri day) in Keyham steamyard. Orders have beea received at the Royal Labora tory at Woolwich for the manufacture of 2,000,000 Minie bullets per week, to be continued until fur ther orders. An additional number of boys and girls have been instructed, under the superinten dence of Mr. Tozer, in the careful method of filling cartridges, so as to hold that number of ball car tridges in readiness for transport per week. The testing of 100 pounder Armstrong guns, at the Royal Arsenal proof butt, continues during the entire day, until some time after sunset, in order to supply the whole of our colonial possessions and the shipping with that formidable weapon as early as may be. A circular has been issued from the Horse Guards directing that commanding officers of regiments which have furnished non - commissioned officers to assist in the organisation of militia in British North America will transmit to the Quartermas ter-General, for the purpose of being forwarded to the War-office, certified returns, giving the names THE CHINESE REBELS. The followin g extract from a private letter gives some account of the atrocities perpetrated by the rebels of Shangtung : "Two generals are in the field against the rebels, Shing paou and Sang-ko-lin-sin ; the former has been operating along the south-western borders of Shantung, has been victorious in many engagements, and has bought over many discontented people ; the latter is in the centre or eastern part of Shantung, and is, generally speaking, doing nothing at all. The Shantung Too-fei are said to be acting under the orders of the Taepings. The order seems to be Kill, burn, and destroy I' They are a set of bloodthirsty ECOIIII. drels, ruthless marauders. They are desolating the country part of the province, but have not yet taken any walled towns. In the villages they murder all, young and old, male and female, and burn down the houses. Their conduct is inexplicable. The other day they appeared at Yentao (Chefoo), and were going to set the place on fire, when The English and French gunboats fired into them ; they then .retreated. The following day they were fol lowed into the country by the French ; they avoided their pursuers ; but the French account of the state in which they found the villages—filled with the dead and half burnt corpses of men, women, and children--is heart rending. Previously, two American missionaries—Mr. Parker and Mr. Holmes —hearing that the rebels were likely to visit Yentae, buckled on their revolvers, mounted their horses, and rode out 35 miles to meet them. They passed the outposts and got to the chief; they asked him his in tention, questioned him as to his religious belief, explain e d a little Christianity, and were then cut in pieces by his pe (t pNang, on the Yangtsze, has been retaken by Tsang Kwoh-fan. lie is working well along the Yangtsze, and he is probably the man that will be first into Nanking, if the Imperialists ever do retake it.
