THE Temps, in its Inde-Chinese
correspondence, reports a horrible
fact which marked the surrender
to the Imperial troops of q city
occupied by the rebels. n.Cheff,
which has long been in the hands
of the insurgents, has fallen into
the power of the army. Though
but little blood was shed during
the seigc, after the cspitulation all
the defenders, to the number OF
six hundred, were beheaded, al
though they had surrendered vol
UNFAIRLY. An English adventurer
in the service ofthe Chinese army,
and at the same time correspon
dent for the Shanghai Courier,
was present at the execution. All
the victims died courageously, ex-
claiming to their butchers that
their death would be avenged by
their children. Some of them
were unwilling to wait for that
period, and threw themselves up
on tho soldiers, CT whom they sue
cccded in killing four and wound
ing several with poignards they
had concealed in their sleeves.

The Lava Bed.

Prof. Hayden, tho United
States Geologist who explored the
lava bad, has laid before the Pres.
ident maps and photographs OF
that region. 1t extends irregular
ly all the way from about the
Three Tillers west Of the Pacific
ocean, about 600 miles. They
are covered with sage brush and
small vegetation, and abound in
small game, being peculiar for the
multitude of rabbits and large
lizards that take refuge in holes
and crevices Of the rocks, The
rocks are Of a basaltic formation
that appears to have been cast
upon the bed of some lake, and
is cracked in all directions, un-
til il forGs a network of assures,
varying in depth ten to sixty feet.
Large numbers of tributaries OF
the Columbia river flow through
this region, and the water washes
out tho soft formation beneath the
rock, and great caverns are found
extending for many miles around,
opening at various places, in.
10 the assures in the rock. In
one instance river has been
traced some sixty miles beneath
these lava beds, without ever ap-
pearing within sight of the eur
face. The sides of the assures in
the rock are generally rough and
irregular, so as to afford a good
foothold in ascending and descend
ing FROM the cracks and crevices.
Water is abundant, and it ap-
pears to be folly to talk Of starv-
ing out the Modocs. When the
snow melts in the mountains they
have more fear from being drown
cd by tho streams than any other
cause.

this time, but will merely say that in
our opinion, three and half tons of
corn stalks and two and half tons Of
corn would keep horse a year in
fully as good condition us six tons of
good hay.
We may estimate, also, that it will
take three and half tons of oat straw
and two and half tons of oats to
keep horse year. A bushel Of
oats weighs thirty-two pounds, so that
it will take over 1876 bushels and
three and half tons of straw to keep
horse year. 1t would take about
two acres Of good land to produce this
amount.
