THE KILLED AND WOUNDED.

The work of removing bodies from the
wreck is still going on. 1t is Impossible to
identify more thar three of the bodies. All
the rest are burned, charred and blackened
beyond recognition. The dead list can
only be ascertained when it becomes grad
ually apparent that those who were known
to have been passengers on this il-fated
train do not make their appearance. The
killed cannot number less than one hun
dred. and may reach a hundred and twenty,
as only 6fty>four out of the hundred and
seventy or hundred and seventy four pas
sengers have been found. Rev. A. H.
Washburn. rector of Grace Church. Cleye-
land, it among the lost. Thirty of the
wounded were sent to Cleveland and dis
tributed among the hospitals. Mails and
baggage all lost, and the temporary fridge
cannot be made ready for the trains in less
thar ten days. Most of the dead seem to
have been from New York, New England
and Illinois. The cars are entirely con
gumed, and a majority OF bodies were re-
duced to ashes. Those which are in any
degree preserved were saved from being
entirely burned by the water.
C. ?. Bliss, the evangelist, and author Of
ssHold the Fort" was on the train with
his wife and children. The Rev. D. L.:
Moody, of Chicago, sent a dispatch to the
Cleveland Young Mems Christian Associa-
ton asking that the bodies be forwarded
to that city. They haye not yet been iden-
tilted.
Miss Mary Birehard, of FAYETTEVILLE,
Vermont, and cousin tokGovernor Hayes,
was on the ill fated train at Ashtabnla.
The uncle from whom the governor in>
herited most of his fortune, also willed to
Miss Rirehard 100000. The three years
allowed in which to settle up the estate
and divide the property having expired,
Miss Orchard was on her way to take
formal possession of her property. Her
name does not appear on the list Of saved,

About ten years ago, two brothers left

steady habits, and had received a good
business education, but the younger was
inclined to be dissipated, and, indeed, had
figured in so many scrapes at home that
his departure was not regretted in his
native village. The two brothers lived
for a short time in San Francisco while
they looked for situations. Tie younger
brother, however, fell into bad company.

The Tribune, in commenting upon
the proposition to establish u college in
China, based upon the traditions OF our
western civilization, compliments the
Chinese by saying with some truth:
Education occupies a higher place
in the state than it does with us,
and in their art, the integrity of ali
their handiwork, their respect tor learn
ing, their %selfcontrol, and fine courtesy
they have reached a higher plane of
civilization than the Anglo.Saxon."
When IL adds, however, that "Their
religion has in IL n broad basis of sublime
truth, both in its conception of the
Deity and oI human brotherhood" it
does not speak with knowledge. The
educated Chinese are what we would call
Atheists, being disciples of Confucius.
who recognized neither God nor a future
state, and whose religion was a system
OF morals based on reason ard human
experience. Buddhism, in ita purity, is
also atheistic; and these two forms of
so'called religious belief embrace the
great bulk Of the Chinese people. There
Is. however, in China, a form of belief,
bigotCd and superstitious, and not unlike
our own s%piritualism and these three
religions, dweAing side by side for several
thousand years, have resulted in a mixed
creed, so that the average Chinaman is
about rs much confused concerning his
belief as the ordinary non. church
going CHRISTIAN. No doubt the faith of
China may be best described as fetichis.
tic. The Emperor is brother TO tie son
md moon, and the all encompassinp
OF heaven is worshipped instead
any personal god. 1t is misleading to
ay that Cinnamon generally have any
uch idea of n i deity or god as is under
TODD by those terms in christendom.
