CHINESE PEcULIARITlEs.-Of al the fecu'
lisrities of the Chinese none strike representa-
tive of Western civilization with more lofco
than their superstitious about the Dead and
their behavior toward dead person. 1t Is dam
perous for 8 person not relative Of the deceas'
ed. to touch or even to be found near dead
body. A relative may comoup ana charge mn III
evidence of guilt or not, the magistrate VIII DC
sure to make the accused party beed-or IN .h .
language of this country. will squeeze nun 10 Tue
extent Of his ability to pay. SO the person, ~! no.
a relative found nearest 8 murdereo Ilan ~ tno
moment murder is found to have been COM
mitted is often executed IS the murderer:
An illustration Of this is found IN Sinsul"l
occurrence which took place ct hong Aohs
fsw months since An English sailor, was IN d
NV boat in the busy harbor, and he sud
Seniv fail overheard The owners OF tho boat
which was carrying him screamed, and struck

rom the spot; such was the CONSERVATION OF
The Chinese at the thought cf being chsrged
with The murder of an Englishman, that 10 one
dared to venture to the poor fellows reiief, ana
he sank.
The Same superstition is observed st iuntrsl.
When the undertaken is about to close Inc CcAih
of dead man he never drives the first nall INTO

renresentatiye of the deceased steps forward
ard drives il home. This is to secure tho und der
take- against the possible charge in future OF

Among the many attractions at
the Pavilion the eye of the visitor,
especially that of pomologist, is
arrested by the artisticaliy disposed
group of trees exhibited by Mr..
Thomas A. Carey, of the Semi
Tropical Nursery. His large col
lection is located in the circle sur
rounding the fountain, aud en-
braces forty-nine varieties of seed
ling and budied citrus family trees.
These comprise all of the most APP
proved varieties of oranges and
lemons. In the collection may be
seen an orange tree, but four years
old, upon which hang one thousand
oranges, and on another fruit in all
stsges, from the blossom through
all gradations up to the fully ripen-
ed oranges. We omit the names
by which these numerous branches
OF the same family are distinguish
ed. Suffice it that they have all
been tried aud, while there are
shades OF difference in the quality
uf their product, they have all been
found good. OF the several variet-
les OF lemons, if any one stands
higher than the other, it is the
seedless, thin skinned, to which Mr.
Carey gives the palm of superior
excellence.
Not content with his magnificent
DISPLAY of citrus family trees,
Mr.. Carey exhibits one of the
largest and most varied collections
of other fruits, which comprise
twenty-one varieties each of pears
and apples, besides English wall
nuts aud Italian chestouts. OF the
growth of the trees of the latter he
makes speciality and at his nur-
sery has a large supply of trees as
