apparently week old, in the Park, OF the City
Hall. The body was clad In q white muslin Dress
The Coroner was notified.
VIOLENTLY INsANE.-Consderabl excitement
was caused last evening at the Hudson River
Railroad depot upon the arrival OF one Of the down
trains by woman named Catharine Shay, one Of
the passengers, exhibiting symptoms OF violent IN
sanity Her actions were OF such nature that
officers McGann and OstraIn removed her TO the
Twentieth precinct station. when physician was
called, who upon examination pronounced the case
not dangerous She soon became quiet and advised
the officer that she had sister, Mrs. WinslOw, living
in the city.
EXPLOSION OF GAs.--Last evening about fve
O'Clock an explosion OF gas occurred in the cellar
OF the dwelling house No. 142 East Tnirty-third
street. 1t was caused by the culpable carelessness
of workman. who had been making some
additions the pipes In forgetting to replace cap
or covering which he had taken OF. The apartment
consequence, was soon filled with gas, and
when servant entered 1t with o light an explosion
building, however was damaged to the amount Of
500. An alarm of fire was raised ut the time bnt
the services Of the fremen were not required.
The SUICIDE MANIA.-Another case OF attempted
sef-murder among that class Of males-inhabitants OF
our city-who, from the pressure OF pecunary embar
rassment firm conviction that the battles OF life
aggravated by the pains OF ceaseless and irequited
labor, too desperate for fnal triumph, occurred
last evening in the Eighth ward. The latest indi-
vdual who wished to change the care and certainly
OF incessant toll for the uncertainties Of eventfu
future Is one Adolph Hillon, German aged twenty
eight years, residing at No. % Prince street, who

MISSIONARIES Foa CHINA AND JAPAN.

large congregation assembled last evening in
the South church, corner OF Fifth avenue and Twen
ty.rst street, to bid farewell to the missionaries OF
the Reformed Church who are about sail for China
and Japan. The meeting having been opened with
the customary religious services the Rev. Dr. De Witt
introduced the Rev. Daniel Rappelyea missionary to
China. Mr.. Rappelyea said there were many people
who objected TO foreign missions the ground that
Christianity, like charity should begin at home. Ger
tain persons who pr0fessed to be Christians had
told the reverend gentleman that New York
was field wide enough for the most
ambitious solder OF Christ and that he had better
stay at home and leave the heathens abroad to be
converted I'm Gods good time. But he had felt 1t
his duty to 60 abroad. God had called him and It
was his privilege to go cheerfully. In China where
he had labored BEFORE there q very interesting
field. God was pleased with the work which had
been done there The light OF the Gospel was shin
ing stronger every day. IL was the pleasure OF the
Lord that the mission should be sustained by the
Church ut home, and therefore " was to be hoped
the necessary assistance would be forthcoming.
The Rev. J. W. DAVIS, OF the Annoy raission, next
addressed the meeting. He had also beer RECON-
mended TO labor at home by those who discourage
foreign missions. Some people we're In the habit
OF saying that they felt no interest in foreign mis-
sons. That was because they had made no sacrifices
Let them give their money and then they would feel
an interest in the cause. Mr. Davis concluded BY
exhor..ng the members Of the church to put their
nahds deeper in their pockets, and was followed,
much in the same STRAIN, BY the Rev. Henry stout,
missionary to Japan. ~es.
The Rev. Chancellor Ferris having delivered
lengthy address, Mr.. Gsnse read letter from =.

Rogers at once came forward, and after an eloquent
ahd affecting speech, which caused many OF his lady
auditors shed tears offered 800 for the ring, and
said II any member OF the congregation was partic-
ularly anxious TO possess so interesting relic, and
was willing to give as much as he was, he would
willingly forcgo HIS privilege first bidder. Strange
to say no one was sufficiently anxious to take adj
vantage OF this exceedingly generous offer and con-
selueuuy the ring was knocked DOWN. TO Mr..
Rogers.
The Rev. Mr.. Steele, OF Newark. offered closing
prayer In which he wished fervent Godspeed TO
the missionaries, and the Rev. Mr.. Rappslyea pro-
nounced the benedictton.

inches thick and to carry an aImamsnt Of
thirty-three large Armstrong guns. The sultan,
in ordering the construction Of this vessel
In 1885. expressed a wish that 'she might embody
the advantages OF every ron-clad known and be the
most powerful iron-clad In the world" me other
six iron men-of-war were also built IN England,
namely, the Abdul Aziz, the Ourkham, the Felfah,
the Izzedin, Fuad and Ismail. the three last were were
in commission four years ago. and are for
almost out OF date. Most OF the other ships. which
were screw steamers, were built At the Turkish
dockyards one OF which is at Constantlnople,
another AT Ismidt another at Ghiumlek and the last
at Amasura, in Asia Minor. Altogether, then. a. the @
Turkish navy consists OF about forty ships and 900
men, OF whom il is very doubtful whether even
decent minority are good sailors and good fighting
men. This force costs the government about
FL 900 sterling annually. ~
The Greek navy Is very poor In comparison with
Turkey az regards ships. IL has only ten fighting
Ships exclusive OF about twenty gunbOatH. The
largest ship frigate OF fifty guns, and the other
vessels which carry more than i've gums each are
either corvettes soops. But the strength OF the
Greek navy does not consist 30 much In it's ships as
in its men. These are forced to serve chiefly by
CONSUMPTION and are drawn from the seacoast.
They are hardy, serviceable class OF men, and In
many instances volunteer for the navy OF their own
accord.
