mysterious placard was found af-

assistance to apply to two power

Imperial government. Twenty
thousand taels, said the anonymous
author of the proclamation, is re-

only way in which that sum is likely
to be procured is by appealing to
these high officers. For some time
nobody seemed willing to go upon
so venturesome an errand. AT last,
however, one of the Pekin officials,
known as "Yu-Shin "-"the EN-

duty to find out from whom the
proclamation emanated. His re-

with the two Ministers who had
been referred to, and to his UNI

Charlotte Ou.hman,s Ingralitude.


Celia Logan says of Charlotte
Cushman, in the Washington
Chronicle: "My father was the
originator of what is now known
as combination companies, and
with his band of strolling players
she played many a little part, and
it was my fathers advice which de-
cided her to go to England. When
the actress, in later days, had be-
come famous and wealthy, she ap-
peared in the West, and my sister
Eliza, then painfully struggling
into prominence, was called upon
to play such parts as "Juliet" to
her Romeo" Forgetful of her
own girlish trials, and my parents
efforts to mitigate them, she threw
every obstacle in my sisters way
which an old and experienced ac-
tress knows so well how to do, to
battle, discomfort, and intimidate a
young and inexperienced one with
hate known only to theatricals.
Nor was it in mysister's case alone,
but every actress she met, especially
if they possessed those personal at
fractions which even red-hot par
tisanship cannot claim for Charlotte
Cushman."

Oettink n seat In q St1 ee6 Jar.
Boston Transcript
There is a fellow in New York
who invariably gets a scat in a
crowded street car by carrying an
old oyster can, which he deposits
with extreme tenderness beneath
the legs of the most timid- loooking
passenger, begging him for Gods
sake not to move his feet around
too much, for there is enough nitro.
glycerin in that can to blow up a
thousand such cars. The passen-
gers who don't happen to sit in the
corner seats generally got out
through the window, SO that before
throwing the can away, the man
has a choice Of seats on both sides
with the privilege, as far as the con-
ductor is concerned, of putting both
cushions on one side, and lying
down with his feet cooked up on
the Indicator, Another pleasant
and efficient method is to label a
small valise marked Savannah"
and carry it with the labeled side
out, assuming meanwhile q distort-
cd expression of countenanoe, as
though the symptoms were ap-
preaching a crisis. This plan is
rather more genteel than the oyster
can method and operates with equal
suddenness.

An INCIDENT of a Famine.

A characteristic incident con-
nected with the famine in the north
of China reaches the Shanghai
Courier from Pekin. 1t seems that
the scarcity of food has been greatly
felt in many of the outlying coun-
try villages, and the dearth was all
the keener from the fact that the
people were uncared for by a single
Mandarin, the only authorities in
the neighborhood being soldiers.
SO an old gentleman, a scholar and
a man Of much repute, bestirred
himself, and in spite of much dis
enlargement from his friends he
went round to all the well-to-do
gentry with a beautifully written
petition praying for assistance. The
old man pleaded the cause of the
sufferers so well that he succeeded
in scraping together not less than
5000 taels of silver /; but, alas! it
was a drop in the bucket, and was
not sufficient to feed q tenth Of

The art of ReparIee.


DeQuincy, for instance, boldly
refused to believe a single story of
brilliant repartee. But a retort of
this sort which meets the ear in
society, and the eye in a book, is a
fact which cannot be gainsaid, an
effect which cannot be forgotten F.;
and ready wit does this for its fell
lows-it dispels this ungracious in
%credulity. In the presence of one
indubitable flash of fancy we can
give credit to recorded triumphs of
the same faculty in others.
But there is another, and a more
generous, ground for delight in
witnessing thisl dashing, prompt
readiness of the faculties in meet
ing attack. 1t is ordinarily the
man taken at a disadvantage and
open to insult or insinnation
through some weak point, as. we
might be ourselves, who excites our
sympathies. He stands forth the
champion of the unready, who feel
themselves avenged through him.
The insolence of the whole pros
porous side Of life gets a snub when
some sharp arrow of q rejoinder
hits its mark. OF course cynicism
has its own line of repartee, and
gets quoted for its ready sayings,
such as the reply Of the a%ristocrat
of the old regime to the poor peas
ants plea, "a man must live"
"Je men vols pas la necessite."
But contempt never excites sympa-
thy. We must always side with the
sentiment hidden in a retort, if we
are to enjoy it.
Coleridge, in addition to his
deeper and loftier faculties, had this
power of retort attributed to him
in early life, and, as we gather
from the history of a particular
ride, could apply it according to
the sensibilities of his opponent.
The horse and get-up of the rider
on this occasion were alike open to
vulgar criticism, and a low wag,
approaching the general effect,
asked the poet if he had met a
tailor just like himself. eyes"
was the reply, sand he said he had
just lost his goose" After this
lowly triumph his road brought
him within hail of a more distin-
ghished party of horsemen, one of
whom, a sporting NJ. F., known to
have been bribed by the Ministry,
stopped him to inquire the price Of
horse and rider. "The horse"
was the answer, "is a hundred
guineas; as for the rider, as he is
not in Parliament yet, l have not
fixed his price"
A story is told of the late Marquis
de Boissy, who showed the same
disregard Of appearances, attended
by the same power of holding his
own under any guise or disguise.
When presented to the late EN-
peror, his new uniform not being
ready, he made his appearance in
an old court costume of his grand
fathers, a man of vastly larger
physique than himself. The En-
peror received him kindly, but some
of the courtiers grinned. Prince
Murat, son of the unfortunate King
Of Naples, could not refrain from a
remark on the drollness Of his
dress. eyes" said De Boissy,
"c'est yrai, monseigneur, ct 81 tous
ceux qui viennent lei deyalent
porter les costumes de leurs grand
spores, on On verrait de bien plus
droles encoreI" the point of course
being the well known humble con-
dition Of the Princes own ancestry.
