THE WAR N CHINA The rebels in Chi
m have gained still another victory. and
the condition Of the Emperor and the
Imperial cause must be critical. Before
this last defeat he was reported to be con-
sideriug the propriety of sending to Eu-
rope for assistance, and unless he stays
the tide of rebel success pretty soon, his
government is likely to be overthrow.
The Chinese are certainly persistent peo-
pie, for this rebellion has been going Oh
for many years. aud thousands of lives
must have been sacrificed uron either side.
In country 50 populous Us China the loss
of life is less severely felt than it would
be in other countries. but no country can

NIAGARA FALLS IN DANGER. Observa
tons Tor year past are said to have con-
WINGED residents in the vicnityof Maya
IA Falls that an imp rtant Transformation
will soon take place in the Horse Shoe
Fall. A peculiar motion Of the rapids a.
bout half mile above, in the channel
where the greatest body of water flows,
has given rise 10 the belief that q breach
has been made by the current through the
soft shalc strata underlying the limestone
that forms tbs present ledge of the falls.
Recently the appearance of the rapids, at
the poiut Indicated has undergone mark.
ed change. and SO exactly in confirmation
of this theory that those watching it do
not doubt the speedy doom of the famous
Horse Shoe cataract. If the limestone
ledge, over which the river now falls, is
in course Of being undermined by subter.
ranean stream. the consequence inevitable
and liable to ensue at any momen,, must
be an immense breaking away of the face
of the cataract, changing its whole form
and appearance--perhaps converting rhe
perpendicular fall into% shooting rapid,
down steep decline.

The House will doubtless pass the Re.
construction bill to morrow afternoon, af.
ter the business hour Mr.. Bingham will
make the closing argument, and he has
yielded a portion of his time to Gen.
Butler, who will eude.vor to secure the
adoption of his amendment empowering
the State Conventions at the South to re-.
rlsce the present State officers with others
of their own selection.
The Senate will not probably take any
immediate action on the bill after 1t shall
be passed by the House. 1t may be that
tie adoption Of the new Constitution in
Alabama will show that no additional re-
construction legislation in necessary.
The reciprocity treaty with the Sand
wich Islands will be brought before the
Senate for ratification this week. The
Senator's from the Pacific slope are its
most earnest advocates.
Protests are being made by booksellers.

of private editions of English works,
against the new postal treaty with Great
Britain, by which many books con be oh.

How to be Independent.

The Massachusetts Pioughman Off
ers the following suggestions, which
very sensible persons regard as wor>

ment
Suppose a youHg man is earning
fifteen hundred dollars per annum.
and is paying third of it for rent,
(thls we know is often done, and
even larger share). His tas Is are
social, and both he and his wife pre-
fer the luxuries and conveniences Of
city life but he is sufficiently sen
sible and independent to wish to cut
adrift from his landlord
A neat, cosy little place is found,
ten miles from the city, lying on the
line of steam railroad, for which a
price of two Thousand dollars is ask
ed. one third down, the balance in
yearly installments Of three hum
dred dollars The would>be buyer,
who is something quick at figures,
soon finds that he can, in a very few
years, pay for that place, and with
out spending dollar more than be
now pays for house rent.
This is the way he arrives at his
conclusion. One third down (S66G)
which almost any young married
man ought to be able TO command)
leaves ST 1874, on which he is to pay
interest of seven per cent. amounts
ing to about 1913 the taxes proba>
bly,, amounting TO $500 and the
annual instailmcnt OF $500, the
whole payment aggregating $40 ;
this is what the place costs him at
the end Of the first year after buy
ing : of course in the next year it
will be less. In addition to this,
will be his yearly railroad ticket,
costing probably $50, and the fares
which his family will pay to and from
the city.
We now have in the aggregate
$500, as the expenses which he will
be callec upon TO pay the same
amount that he is throwing away in
rent, and in less than five years he
owns his homestead, and is independ.
ent of all men.
In the calculation above made, no
items are allowed for repairs OF the
house, which must be far more than
balanced by a supply of fruit and
vegetables which he can and should
raise in his spare time.
We offer these suggestions TO our
young frietds for what they arc
worth,ss but we have no doubt that if
they were acted upon there would
be far less complaint ;han there now
is, of hard lines, and families would
be less deprived than they now are
of many comforts, by the grasping
averice of landlords.
