tween hop and jump, that it had the effect
of grease on the rails, making the wheels revolve
swiftly, while the train remained stationary

CHINESE CHRIsrIANs.-It has been widely

tioR at Canton, that the rebel chief and his fol-
lowers are Christians, that they avow themselves
10 be followers of Christ, have the cross as a
symbol, &c. The Hong Kong Register, IN reply,
asserts that the statement is in fact absurd, al
though it may be true that Christianity is profess.
ed by some Of the chiefs of the insurgents, in Or
der to gain the good will oc ''outside barbarians
How much Christianity these rutlians possess, is
tested clearly enough, by The fact that they make
boast of having slaughtered %, 900 women and
children, in Nanllin, which they have captured
The Register says that the leader, 'Tae ping wing
gives out that his origin was divine, and asserts
that he Is often taken up TO heaven and has d.
rect communion with God and is she brother of
Jesus Christ His followers seem to entertain
the same belief In pracuce, he has thirty six
wives. These insurgents have imposed various
restrictions, such the prohibition of tobacco,
and yet are said to indulge IN the greatest luxury
and RIGHTEOUSNESS in Nanktn, all being enriched
by Enthusiastically very few readers received
the accounts of Christianity of these insurgents
with much faith, aud certainly every recent ac-
count tends to dlscredit these statemenls.-E Even
II they profess Christianity, their conduct proves
them TO be bad followers of Christ 1t were much
better that such men should believe in Buddhism,
