"YY THEIR FRUITS SHALL YE KNOW
THEM"

No heattenism is so stupid that II does not at
once make the distinction between profession and
practice. and when both are before it the com pari'
son is at once made. The following incident,
which occurred during the negotiations of our
ambassador with the Chinese minister recently, in
the presence Of some of the most distinguished
members of the Chinese government illustrates
this fact. The Mr.. Martin spoken OF seems to have
been a Christian missionary in she company of our
ambassador.
Some Christian almanacs, which Mr.. Martin
distributed among the company attracted much NJ
tention. Wang Yalanonyia turned over the leaves
until he came to the Ten Commandments, and ran
his eye hastily over them until it rested on the
the tenth, when he exclaimed, admirable /! this
is indeed. equal to the teachings Of our holy sage
Confucius. If all men would obey this precept,
how happy the world would be-. Mr., Martin not
forgetting his function as an Interpreter of the d.
vine law, took this for n text, and, recapitulating
the VIII lie Decalugue discoursed to an attentive
audience OF the first minds in the province CON
corning ,heir relations AS the creatures OF God, aud
members of the human family.
"What nation" asked Wang, beside your hon
orable country, profess the Christian faith 2"
"Russia, France, England, and"
"No." interrupted Wang; mot England
They can't profess the Christian faith, Tor if they
did they wouli observe the tenth commander nj.
and not covet our cities or lands; and the sixth,
too, which they would not violate as they do, by
vending opium, and ~diffusing death and misery
throughout our provinces"

The MAGNIFicENCE OF THE KREMLIN.--Bayard
Taylor IN a recent very interesting letter from
thus describes the interDa! splendor of
the ancient palace of the Cars:
The plain exterior of the building gives no hint
of the splendors within. ! have seen all the pal
aces of Europe with the exception of the E-euri-
al, but | cannot now recall one in which the high
est possible magni6cence is so subservient t. good
taste, as here. In!aid floors, of such beautiful de-
sign and such precious wood that you tread upon
them with regret capitals, cornices and ceiling
sofits of gold walls overlaid with futed silk gil
ant candelabra of silver and malachite, and the soft
CLEAN of many tinted marbles, combine to make
this a truly imperial residence. The grand hall of
st. George, all in white and gold, is literally in
crusted with ornamental carved work that Of St.
Alexander Nevesky is sumptuous in blue and gold;
of St. Vladimir in crimson and COLO while in
that of ST. Elizabeth, the walls are not only over,
laid with gold. aud the furniture of massive silver,
but in the center of every door is a Maltese cross.
formed of the largest diamonds The eye does
not tire of this unwonted splendor, nor does it
seem difficult to dwell even in such dazzling halls.

MADEIRA WINE WHERE 1T CONES FRox.-A
travelling correspondent Of the NeD Hampshire
Patriot, writing of Madeira, says:
NJ March, U. S. Consul at Madeira, is a
native of the fine agricultural town of Greenland,
N. H., whose ample and cheerful hospitality
amazed others ne well as myself. TWAS absolute.
ly princely : at the same time it was without os.
~tentation and boast. Not only did he keep a free
table. spread with oil the delicacies of the island,
at his house out of the town, bat he kept an open
house in the town. where ample rooms and cham.
bers were at the disposal of our party, with at,
PENDANTS to do the waiting, and servants to pro.
vide our breakfasts. Indeed we were lords of all
we surveyed whether house, beds, servants,
fruits, books, or food. Mr.. March has been for
many years largely engaged in the wine culture
aud wine trade, in which be has made q princely
fortune. / wish that all the wine bibbers, pub.
licaus and sinners,' would remember the state
ment Mr.. March made to me. that not five pipes
Of wine are now made a year in all the island of
Madeira And yet it is abundant in the United
States, and as delicious rs abundant. The Anne.
rican crop never fails. though blight and mildew
have killed all the vines IN Madeira. Strychnine
does not fail either, if the vine does"

THE PROPORTION OF MARRIED AND
SINGLE IN TIE INSANE ASYLUM.

Few persons are aware-although old bachelors
and old maids are particularly interested in the
statistical item-that of 337 persons confined in the
Lick Run Lunatic Assyl I'm, a large proportion are
as compared with the married, the
widowers and widows. The facts furnish an un.
answerable argument against'single blessedness".
For instance of the total number, $751;, no less than
III are single-l06 males and IS females. OF the
persons married before being sent to the %institu.
ton, there we're ITO in the aggregate-52 males
and SO females--showing a considerable per cent
age in favor of those who had 40 fears Of
Fits Of spleen-the extravaganza of dress,
The thirst for plays, for concerts and for balls
The insolence Of servants, and the spurns
That pltient husbands from their consorts take"
We will not undertake to a%nalyze the reasons for
this disproportion of insane single persons, as
compared with the married. but only state the fact.
Whether the Benedicts are less liable to mental
excitement, or the ingle more disposed to dissi
pating causes-whether the married become i'm.
peryious to the influences that harrow mp the sou
and brain Of the uninitiatcd--each will have q
theory af his own, as PLAIN as the numerical prop
ositiOn that two and two make four.
A further investigation shows US that of the to
tai number in our Asylum, Is are widowers, anC
% widows. This fact looks az though there wa
more feeling. more sensibility, a deeper affection
or mental suffering, amongst those who lean upoI
the stronger staff Of domestic association Gin

DEATH OF AN EMPREss.-An Ex .Empress of
Hayti. Nine. Jean Jacques Dessalines, died at
Gonalves on the 9Th OF August, aged about seven
ty'five years. Madame Dessalines vas a remark.
able woman, of the true African type, but pos
sessing unusui capacity. She was the second
wife Of the negro Emperor Dessalincs, and mar.
ried him when he began his career as a warrior
against the French in Hayti. Her temperate con-
duct moderated his natural ferocity, and
many acts of comparative humanity to the whites
who fell into his power were attributed, with JUS.
itcc to her influence over him. For the last half
century and upwards, or since the death of her
husband in lS06, Madame Dessaliaes lived in re.
tirement. The Provisional Government in 1914
voted her a pension of 1900. IIayti currency.
per annum, then equal to about S400 United
States currency but for some years back, owing
to depreciation, not worth more than from 500 to
$50.
