As Lieutenant Hallowes was steering his
boat back from Fatshan. he had to pass be-
tween two iunks already blazing, and with
guns pointed across the boats course
Give way, men," he said, expecting that
the junks would go up or the guns 60 OF
before he could get clear; but his crew,
although they had good stores of flags, had
forgotten the ribands. ''Beg pardon, sill"
said the eoxswain, speaking for the rest.
we've got no ribands on the gun, might'nt
we just go and take away them things J"
To their great clagrin the officer did not
think it quite consistent with his duty to get
his men blow. up for such an object.
Some men were left all night in charge
of the fort, aud AZ they had but little to eat
and nothing to drink, IL was difficult to make
jolly night of it. They hit upon the ex-
pedient of collecting all the gingals and
Chinese spear rockets together, lighting a
fire under them. and sitting in a half circle.
AS the gingals from time to time heated,
and the flames reached the rockets, they
exploded so the garrison of the fort had
excitement and fireworks half the night
through.
The naval exploits have, of course, been
unon a smaller scale since the Ist of June.
The Sampson however, managed to secure
five pirate links which had sent detach-
ments on shore to plumber a village. On
the approach of the SIMPSONS boats the
pirates as usual, fred their guns and jump
ed overheard; but the villagers. meanwhile,
had turned out to see the fight, and as the
pirates landed they were knocked on the
bead with bamboo poles. Captain Corbett,
also, in the Inhexible. got hold of pirate
a notorious scourge.
Ten iunks, laden with rice, were sailing
gaily up the river to Canton, when it was
intimated to the Commodore that they had
very much the cut of mandarin junks.-
They were accordingly detained. Great
was the Indignation of the Chinese of Hong
Kong. They were declared to be Hong
Kong property. Innocent traders were
being ruined There ought, at least, to
have been some notice of q blockade. ''Why
fer you no sendchit 7" Orders were sent to
release them, but Keppel, who is tenacious
in his opinions, was not quite satisfied
He ordered some of the rice bags to be
brought on deck, and when this was done
the iunks were found to have each a fair
cargo of guns, soldiers jackets, and other
warlike stores-including, it is said, several
cases of revolvers.
Such are the little incidents of the war
which Queen Victoria is waging against Mr.
Commissioner Yeh.

CANADIAN ANNExArroN,

1 A British Review. on the authority of
Judge Halliburton, of Nova Scotia, accuses
the Congress of the United States of having
sent an agent to inspect the Notifications of
Canada, ascertain the character and num-
bers of the militia, and examine into the
condition of the arsenals of the province.
A secret plot to annex the Canadas is bold
ly asserted. 1t graVely declared that the
United States have their covetous regards
fixed upon both Canada and Cuba, and are
only waiting favorable opportunity to
devour them both bodily.
1t is scarcely possible to conceive that
such charge can be seriously believed by
any one outside of Bedlam. IfJudge Hall
burton has made the statements attributed
to him, ha must have known them to be
without foundation. Such extraordinary
allegations surely demanded some SEM
blance of proof, and we should like to see
the proceedings of Congress, which can be
produced, in support of the astounding as
sertion. The past action OF Congress Is
always with open doors and in full view OF
the world. If it ever ordered an agent to
Canada, for the purposes indicated by
Judge Halliburton, or fSar am other purpose
it must have been kn6Wl to the whole
world, and the people snd press of the
United States would BE- quite as likely to
know all about it as Judge Halliburton.

CAUSE OF THE WAR OF l6l2.-The
manner in which pig caused the war of
1912 was as follows:
Two citizens of Providence, r. l., both
of the Federal school of politics, CHANGED
to quarrel. They were neighbors, and one
of them owned pig which had an inveter-
ate propensity to preambulate in the gar
den of the other. The owner of the garden
complained that his neighbours pig-sty was
insufficient to restrain the pig, and the
neighbor insisted that the garden fences
were not in good repair. One morning as
the pig was taking his usual ramble, he was
surprised in the very act of roofing up some
valuable dubious roots. This was the sslast
feather" and the owner of the garden in
stantly put the pig to death with a pitch
fork. At the coming election the owner
of the garden was candidate for the Leg
islature, and his neighbor, who, but for the
quarrel, would have voted for him, voted
for the Democratic candidate, who was
elected by majority of one. At the cleo
ton of United States Senator Demo-
crat was chosen by majority of one; and
when the question of a war with ENGLAND
was before the Senate it was declared bv a
majority of only one.-HiSt. Mdoaziue.

FAMINE IN AFRICA.

Information has been received at the
Methodist Episcopal Mission Rooms in this
city, that there are apprehensions of a
general failure in Liberia that already
several of the poorer people have died of
starvation: that some of the missionaries
on the country stations are without any
other food than green plums, and that
are cutting down the palm trees, for the
sake of the palm cabbage to sustain life
One of the missionaries there remarks that
this state of things has been coming upon
three causes, first, the great number of idle
and worthless persons in the community
who will not work and who live by beggary;
second, that this class of persons is certain
ly increased by the emigration from the
United States, numbers of immigrants con-
suming a great deal and producing nothing;
and third. to the failure of the native rice
crops several years ago, owing in part to a
bad season, but mainly to the natives,
general attendance upon the Devil Bush
when they should have been upon their
farms. They have never been able to re-
cover themselves. What rice has been
gathered for year or two past has not
been enough for food, SO they have saved
none for sowing"
This is gloomy prospect and the mis-
sionary who gives the information-the Rev.
j. w, Horne-predicts yet worse condi-
ton of things, and that ''the end of all things
ont there is at hand" The distress does
not seem to be confined to the natives, for
he commences his account in the words ::
I'VE in the republic have been and are in
a fearful condition for want of food, at
some points worse than at others.-N. Y.

WHY PROVISIONS HAVE BEEN
DEAR

The Pennsylvania has compiled some
statistics which serve in part to explain the
extraordinary high prices of all kinds of
provisions which have ruled the past year
or two.
In 1910, for instance, the United States
produced
S4,520.0O0 bushels of wheat.
lO8,OOO,O 900 bushels of Irish and sweet
potatoes.
1870, 900 head of cattle.
Had agriculture remained simply station
ary-considering the increase of population
it ought to have produced in 1850
l15,24O,OO0 bushels of wheat,
146,000,000 bushels of potatoes.
2O,349, 600 head of cattle.
Instead of which it only yielded
I0O,480,O00 bushels of wheat.
1O4,OO0,QOO bushels of potatoes.
1878, 900 head of cattle.
Thus the diminution of these articles dur
ing the period ten years amount to about;
10000 U0 bushels Of wheat, which is a
falling off of II.
4l,OOO,OOO bushels of potatoes, which is a
falling off of !.
100000 head of cattle, which is falling
off of Ito of the production in 1S4n-dnly
taking into calculation the increase of popu-
lation.
Here, then, we have one reason for the
advance of provisions.
While agriculture thus proved unable to
keep pace with the growth of the popula-
ton, the expectation of breadstuffs increased
prodigiously which, of course reacted upon
the home market.
The value of breadstuffs and provisions
exported averaged per annum for the period
from 1880 to 1916, $12.0OO,O00.
From 1910 to 1850 $27, 100000.
From 1850 to 1856, $41, 100000.
Thus the expectation more than doubled
in ten years, and nearly doubled in the last
seven years.
These facts, taken in connection with the
dispersion of laborers over the wild and
non-producing lands of the West by the
railroads, will 60 far to explain why the
provisions for family cost more than twice
what it cost ten, or even five years ago
There has been an immense temptation
drawing the laboring classes to the West.
Before they left they used to produce more
than they consumed. Now-that is for the
first year or two after their migration-they
consume more than they produce, or what
they produce is not within the reach of Gus
toners. 1t will not always nor long be SO,
we hope.

ATROCITIES IN INDIA.

The English papers give numerous ac-
counts of the atrocities perpetrated on
Europeans in India. A letter from Bagalore
says:
1--WE have had an awful time of it, can
assure you, though we ourselves have been
mercifully kept from alarm and danger. No
words can express the feeling ofhorror which
prevades society in India, we hear so many
private accounts of the tragedy, which are
too sickening to repeat.
The cruelties committed by the wretches
exceed all belief They took forty eight
females, most of them girls of from ten to
fourteen, many delicately nurtured ladies'
violated them, and kept them for the base
purposes of the heads of the instruction
for whole week. At the end of that time
they made them strip themselves, and gave
them up to the lowest of the people, to
abuse in broad daylight in the streets of
Delhi. They then commenced the work of
torturing them to death, cutting off their
breasts, fingers and noses, and leaving them
to die, One lady was three days dying
They fayed the face of another lady and
made her walk naked through the street.
Poor Mrs. -, the wife of an officer of
the reg ment, at Mecrut, was soon ex-
pecting her confinement. They violated
her, then ripped her up, and, taking the
unborn child, cast it and her into the flames.
No European man, woman or child, has
had the slightest mercy shown him. l dc
not believe that the world ever witnessed
more hellish torments than have been in
tlicted on our poor fellow-country-w
At Allahabab they have rivale the atroci-
ties of Delhi. really cannot tell you the
fearful cruelties these demons have been
guilty of-cutting off the fingers end toes
of little children, joint by joint, in sight
of their parents, who were reserved fol
similar treatment afterwards.
