A Woful Picture Of Misery and Suffer.
Ing In China.

A gentleman in Shanghai writes to a
friend in this city as follows:
The great question which at present
agitates the Fowery Kingdom is the
famine at the North. For four years
past part of four of China's Northern
Provinces has yielded either small
crop, or none at all. One year ago the
suffering was something dreadful among
these poor people, who were worse Oft
than slaves. At that time about &c.,
900 was raised by the foreign COM
munities at the open ports and for
warded to disbursing agents, who made
good use Of the money. This year the
famine is still worse. Over q country
that embraces population of some
100000 of people, absolute destitu-
ton prevails. People are actually eat
ing each other. Babies are cut up and
sold by the pound. There seems to be
no remedy; the Chinese authorities are
doing something, but it is only drop
in the bucket The foreign community
have elected canvassing committees,
and the subscriptions will be up in
the thousands; how much, it is impos-
sible to say. From last years expert
cilCc, IL Is cSllludtcQ bii1b q llC Ctu DC
saved for about $3.50, SO that all that
can be done will save only few out of
the millions. In the Central Provinces
there is an abundance of rice; this is
being shipped to the suffering districts,
but it takes months to reach them. 1t
costs nearly three times the price of the
rice to carry it to its destination-no
railroads, no canals, not even a car
riage-road. Within the past fifteen
years the Chinese Government have
spent money enough on Notifications,
ships, improved arms and ammunition,
to have built road from Shanghai to
Pekin, with branches leading through
the famine districts. The ships are
useless; so are the Notifications; they
both only serve as an excuse to pay fat
salaries to lazy officials. The arms and
ammunition are stored away, rusting
so as to be worthless, and China's mill
ions are starving. Chinese officials
do not want. to change the order of
things. Why should they? The mer-
chants and tradesmen desire it, but
they have very little to say in the mat
ter. If l am rightly informed, with all
their Government workshops and ar
senals, there has never been an agri-
cultural tool or implement made; guns,
torpedoes, ships, etc., seem to be their
end and aim. The official class grow
richer and richer each year, and the
lower classes poorer and poorer. No
wonder that such numbers are willing
to go to the Pacific Coast, where in afew
years they can earn life competence
and lie down and die in their own land
with the millions taken from the poor
laboring classes in our own country.
What kind of people is it who regard
with cool nonchalance their neIghbors
devouring their own children? Were
you to ask them to explain their strange
apathy, they would no doubt give the
regular Chinese shake of the head and
say, "Me no sabe. San Francisco

A Warm Reception.

A rascal In San Francisco recently met
his deserts at the Hands of two indignant
women whom he had privately traduced
10 each other. and who finally let out
the matter through the constitutional
inability of woaer TO keep secret.
When they found cut his rascality one
of them invited him to visit her, aid
when he was shown into the parlor he
saw the twain armed with stout raw
hides and backed by two male relatives.
He was beaten until the two women be-
came exhausted, when he was ordered
out the back door, and in his exit received
the contents of a pan OF hot squash upon
his head. Hating in the back yard to
dig the succulent vegetable out of his
ears, the house dog was set upon him,
and when lie reached the street he was
in most dilapidated condition.

An officer detached somewhere on special
duty, and allowed to charge his expenses
to the warioffice, tu.y sent there a mem
Orandum of the different sums he had
disbursed. Among these was an item of
one shilling paid to porter who had
helped to carry mis- luggage. This item
the officer entered as porter Shortly
afterward he received an official letter
from the war-office, i'm which his attsn-
ton was called to this sextraordinary
charge" Captain-was reminded that
the Secretary of War was not disposed to
sanction the cost of his beer being de-
| frayed out of the public moneys, and
that in any case, even in hot weGlher, a
whole shilling for porter was decidedly
excessive. My friend was much tickleti.
| He dispatched formal reply, in which
he elaborately explained that porter
did not represent the liquor that he
poured down his throat, but the man who
had carried his luggage. This brought
a curt reply from Pail Nall directing
Captain-to enter such charges, not as
"pOrter," but as "pOrterage.n The gallant
officer in question, little amused and
perhaps little annoyed at this ridicu-
