beautiful cream cOlOred pony, attended by two
handsome cavaliers, comes the belle OF "the

knows there can be but one belle on the avenue
who can sit horse 50 superbly, and whose eyes
dash such dark fire from uader the close fitting
beaver that crowns her pale, Greek face like a
helmet. Closely following, In high-top boots and
jockey cap, comes little horseman who for the
last fortnight has been the observed of all observ-

fear tc name him, for he is attended by careful
groom, ard his quaint and knowing costume and
carefully dressed curls show very plainly that his
lady mother knows he's out.

INCIDENTS OF THE WAR N CHINA "A letter
from China. In the Journal de Charities, gives the
following incident in the taking Of the first Of the
Chinese forts that have just fallen into the power
of the Anglo-French army. The writer says:
A dag Of truce was sent to our camp, with re-
quest that we would suspend our tre to give the
Chinese time to bury their dead As the respect
IN which the Chinese hold the dead 10 their sole
religion, the request was granted. At the expifa-
tion Of the two hours another nag was sent TO us,
with a request for an arnistice OF another two
hours. ibis second request was granted, but our
General charged the ENJOYS to inform their chief
that no further delay would be accorded, and that
fire would open on their forts, without fail, at
the end Of this new suspension Al tne close OF
the four hours thus granted we commenced firing
on the forts but perceived that the latter made no
reply. We thereupon entered the forts and found
them empty But we found letter written TO our
General BY San-kolin sing, the Genera -fn-Chief,
which ran as follows being translated by our In
IGeneral-The valiant soldiers of thy great
Emperor are more valiant than mine capitu-
lats'i
similar letter was addressed to the English
General.
On entering court of one Of these forts the sol
diers were astonishsd to some forty or MY
elrthen j4rs, Standing In row, apparently full Of
water. with pair Of little feet sticking up over
the edge Of each. On breaking these jars, to as
certain the nature Of their contents. they were
sill more astoni ished TO nd In each dead woman
with her head dOwnwards, drowned by this sin
gular mode Of immersion. On inquiry, II was
asce;tai ned that the Chinese, before quitting the
forts, adopted this method Of putting to death al
their women VINO Were judged to be not suft
ciently strong 10 accompany the forced march oi
the ret-eating braves
At the taking OF another fort, after sanguinary
struggle, the Chinese commander, on finding hi M
self surrounded by the allies, declared In loud
voice that honor forbade his continuing to live
after such misfortune, drew a little saw from hil
pocket, and after saving away at his own throa
with unfaltering resolution, succeeded, at th,
third attempt, in his fatal purpose, aad fell life
less to the ground. .F -.~.r -.

DR.. HAYEs's EXPEDITION. Mccormick,
of DR. Hayes's expedition, thus writes to a friend
10 New York:
UPPKRNAvIK, Aug. 16-we have been greatly
favored thus far, In making he passage to Disco
In q days-the quickest passage made by any of
the Arctic expeditions. Our little craft 10 all /
could wish her, aud have not spared her. Our
only accident so has been the staving in of our
stern boat. -. -
We have had very heavy weather coming out
The waves rolled in one side and out at the
other Dry clothes we have been strangers to
Still we are In good spirits, and bound to the
North Pole.
We have lost one Of our hands-Caruthers, the
carpenter-who was found dead In his bed We
buried him here. Our surgeon leaves US at this
place Our whole company are united and In ex-
cenent spirits, often making our little CO bin ring
with laugh ghter.
This evening we leave for the North, stopping
at Tissuasak to obtain few more dogs. We take
new hand from here, the son-in-law Of Petersen,
who takes the place Of the carpenter.
Look for our return in about two years.
