A Chinese He'll.

A traveller thus describes a represen-
tation of the punishment of the wicked
after death, according to the Buddhist
theory, which he witnessed in the SUBJ
urbs of Canton:
CATER a walk of about q mile, we
came to the Temple of Horrors. This is
a horrible place-that is, the scenes are
hideous. The intention is to represent
what a bad man would suffer after death.
It is composed of ten different groups of
statuary, of clay, and many of them are
crumbling to pieces. The first group
surrounded by his family and friends,
who are trying to defend him; the sec
ond, where he is condemned and given
over to the executioner in the third he
isundergoing asemi-transformation from
the man to the brute the fourth, where
he is put into a mill head downward,
and is being ground up; his dog is by
the side of the mill licking up his blood.
In the fifth scene he is being placed be-
tween two boards, and is sawed down
lengthwise; sixth, he is under a large
bell, which is rung until'the conclusion
kills him seventh, the man is placed
upon a table, and two men are beating
him with large wooden paddles ; eighth,
he is upon a rack, and the executioners
are tearing his flesh with red-hot pin
GERS; ninth, he is in a cauldron of boil
ing lead /; the tenth scene represents him
upon a gridiron, undergoing the process
of roasting. In all these scenes the fam.
lily are present, also large figures who
represent.the Judge, executioners, little
devils, and various instruments of tor
ture"

Our knowledge of Shakespeare.

It is the man Shakespeare who really
influences us in reading "Hamlet" and
"Othello," and not the less because
critics generally repeat the assertion that
we know very little of theman who retires
so carefully behind his characters. We
have, it is true, next to nothing of the
kind of information about Shakespeare
which Boswell gave us about johnson.
But surely we know a good deal about a
man if we know only this-that he is
capable of sympathizing impartially with
a vast variety of characters, and in some
very important respects it seems to me
that we know O of Shakespeare than
of johnson. If we know less of his do
nestle relations and his taste in cookery,
we know what he felt and thought about
some of the most profoundly interesting
of all the problems of life. But, wheth-
er we have or have not framed any the
DRY as to Shakspeare'G personality, or
have OF have not constructed a theory of
the man from his books, it is not the
less the man who really influences us.
For what really impresses us in Shaks-
peare, or in any great writer, is the ex-
traordinary force and yividness with
which he has embodied certain general
truths and deep emotions, and his power
of achieving that feat clearly depended
upon his own emotional and intellectual
temperament. The nature of the influ-
ences is not the less clear that it acts as
from behind a cloud.
