Curious FAcT.-It Is curious fact that all
the fighting nations of ancient times have
died out or fallen into remarkable desuotude.
They seem to have been consumed by their
fierce internal passions. On the other hand
the Chinese, q peaceful people, now number
about four hundred million-a number suffi.
cient, il warlike, to sweep resistlessly all over
Europe. 1t certainly is wise dispensation
of nature that only those people who cult.
yate the arts Of peace shall live long on the
earth. Statesmen and political economists
may profit by this interesting fact.

shall be formed, and to see whether it duly
secures the rights of loyal men; and We
shall have the power to protect them. Can
we not trust ourselves?
am in favor of proposing some distinct
plan Of reconstruction which shall be just
| and which shall be an answer to those who
have reproached US, that we have presented
no plan by which the Union could be re-
stored and the people again en- Joy the right
OF self-government under the Constitution.
But it is said by gentlemen upon the other
side of the Chamber that this bill everturns
State governments and sets up military
despstisu. The conclusive answer Is this:
these governments are not loyal governments.
They do not secure protection to loyal men.
They are mere instruments in the hands OF
disloyai men to oppress those who have the
strongest claims To protection at our hands.
Loyal men not protected in the rebel
States to-day The fact that /, man is a
loyal man is e reason why he is not secure
in person or property. The duties of alle>
glance by the citizen and protection by the
Government reciprocal and coextensive.
If we cannot protect loyal citizens of the
United States in life and property, we have
no light to claim their allegiance if We
have no right to protect the rights Of loyal
men except through State governments, then
We have no right to claim their allegiance
except through State governments; and the
doctrine of State rights is established, which
justified every man in becoming traitor to
the Union upon the call Of his State. And
however consistent gentlemen who denounced
the doctrine OF coercing States may be IN
advocating this doctrine, it is impossible
that those who believed in crushing the re-
bellion by military power can be influenced
by such sophstry to such an extent as to
fail to extend practical and efficient protec.
tion to the men who need that protection,
only because they Eave been faithful TO the
Constitution and the Union.

, himself still more curious tale, of sim
I liar kind, is told by the Chi.a papers. In
the native city of Shanghae, the parent, of a
| Young lady lately married, having fallen into
distressed circumstances, appealed to her for

! give them coat for the purpose of being

pocket OF the coat. The old man did not
discover this, and took it to pawnbroker,

the young Lady disposed of herself by hang

known to the parents, and the cid mother
took the matter so much to heart that she
poisoned herself with opium. Lastly, the
pawnbroker getting alarmed on hearing that

went and drowned himself in well. This

Some years ago, for instance, an accom-
plished young lady al Canton, who had been
unfortunately married to n coarse and stupid
husband, was bewailing her life to party of
sister. and female cousins, and declared her
intention of committing suicide. On this,
the other young ladies declared that since
such was married life, they would die too ;
and 50 the whole bevy Of them Joined hands

Again, three men imprisoned in Hons kong
jail, on a charge Of piracy, determined to
make away with themselves rather than
have the bother Of trial. At some height
in the cell, where they were imprisoned, was
a small window guarded by two iron bars,
and the problem these worshles had to solve
was, how the three OF the N were to be hang
ed upon the two bars. From the position IN
which they were found in the morning it
would seem that the third man had assisted
the two others in hanging themselves freln
the bar. by their tails that then he had cut
down one of them by gnawng through the
tail with his teeth aud using the dead body
as a STOOL to be afterwards kicked over, he
had contrived to suspend himself. All this,
too, was done 50 quietly as hot to attract the
notice of sentry who was pacing outside
