Der Of other French subjects, in
cluding several priests, and the
Sisters Of Charity attached to the

, London Standard publishes a pri-
+ Sate$lettrr, written from Chccloo,
u sa}nn6$30, in which the barbaritics
Aprncticud on the fatal day OF tho
massacre are fully depicted. Az,
ter telling how the French Consul,
M. Foni:,nlrr, NJ. ThommasSin, an
attnchn of thc consulate and his
wife, and two Catholic priests,
were murdered, the letter proceeds
to Civ" details Of the suuyuinary
sequel ,n these crimes.
The mob, lrl on by soiiicrs, sol
fire to tn" rnn$uintc and the church
Of the Cat hUlic mission, and burn,
all the other inmates who could
not escape. simultaneously with
the assault on the Frcuch consn-
late. the mob and soldiers sur
rounded the hospital Of the French
Sisters OF Charity. Having set
fire to a portion Of tho building,
they entered the gates and drag
god all the Sisters OF Charity out in
to the street. There ,hey stripped
them naked, exposed them to the
public gave, pIucIlcd out their
eyes, en-, OIL their breasts, ripped
Them open, dragged out their
hearts, and deliberately cut them
to pieces and divided portions of
their flesh amongst the inturialcd
mob. 80 European witnessed
these on'ra@cs on humanity save
the poor victims, who, in presence
Of each other, passed through the
terrible ordeal, and persisted with,
out hope OF release, and without
any support in that extreme hour
of misery and torment save their
confidence in q mcrciful God,
whose brhcsts they have cndcav-
orcd TO fuIIll amongst II barbarous
people, at The peril Of their lives.
Chinese spectators Of the bloody
scene relate other horrors pcrpc-
tratcd on the innocent ladies that
cannot bo mentioned. Tho lady
tsupcriorcss of.tho hospital it is
related, was cut in twain whilc
yet aIivo. God alonc and the Sis

agony and bodily sutlorings. Their

torn asunder, their blood scattered,
and their lives destroyed by saw
ages whose murderous rago in
flictcd all those and other outragcs
amidst q scene Of horror that alone

One short hour suilicod TO cXtin-

tho poor Of Ticnt-s for six years
was thus crowned in bitterness
and earthly shame by tho vcry
people whom they had succorcd,
and fed, and clothed, and tended
in the hour Of sickness and pcsti-
lcncc.
No sooner had the mob and tho
soldiers gluLtod their thirst for
human blood on tho unfortunate
Sisters than they burnt tho ontiro
hospital. Ncarly 100 children who
had been received into the orphan
age, attached to the hospital, per
ished in tho flames. The mutilntcd
members Of tho dead Sisters were
