CHINESE History OF THE UNITED
STATES "A Chinese history of the
United States, written by Sen Hi Yu,
who was, from 1914, to 1850, Cow
ernor ofone of the provinces of the
Celestial Empire, has just been trans
lated for the State Department, at
Washington, aud copies have been
furnished fol publication by the press.
The statements are generally re-
markably correct OF Washington
the distinguished author has very
high opinion He says, '.Oh, who is
there that does not call him q hero !"
He adds; 'In devising plans he was
more daring than Chin Shing or Hahn
Kwang. In winning a country he
was Drawer than Tson Tsan or Sin
Pts. WELDING his four foot falchion,
he enlarged the frontiers myriads OF
miles, and yet he refused to usurp re-
gal dignity, or even to transmit it
to posterity; but, on the contrary
first proposed the plan of electing
men to office. Where in the world
can be found a mode more equitable?
1t is the same idea, in fact, that has
been handed down to as (the Chin
ese) from three reigns Of San Shur
end Yu."

English Death Sentence.

The Fenian prisoners recently
found guilty at Cork, we're sentenced
by the Court ''to be taken from the
place where you now stand to the
place from whence you came, and
that on Wednesday, the 20 day ofthis
month Of May, you be drawn on a
hurdle from that place to the place of
execution, and that there you and
each of you shall be hanged by the
neck until you are dead, and that af-
forwards the head of each of you shall
be severed from the body, and the bo.
dy Of each fyou be divided into four
quarters, and shall be disposed of as
Her Majesty and Executive shall see
fit, and may the Lord God Almighty
have mercy on your souls -
Treason against the crown of Eng
land is certainly odious there, and
likewise the punishment here. In
what manner Her Majesty may think
fit to dispose of the "four quarters
Of the condemned is left to conjecture.
