Rig Onasg's Appetite

Are tsura.eu of Brooklyn Ia ely hat
for q guest Chang, the Chinese giant
A reporter happened 10 dine at the res
tsurant several evenings ago, and had
Chang for . neig b Dor. A little natural
curiosity lad him to note the bill Of fare
OF the A..-,: First Chang ordered
oysters, Iaw, on the shell, next, steam
ed oysters on toast; then green turtle
and printaniere soups, and after that,
fish, including brOilsd shad, flet de-
sole, sauce tartare, and boiled salmon
with lobster sauce.
The reporter thought Chang would
stop there, but the giant politely signi
fed to the attendant that was waiting
for the next article on his written bill.
So he had for his entrees Turkey wings,
jardiniers, and chicken croqusttes and
tomato sauce. Then he attacked with
gusto roast ribs of beet and half chick
en- stuffed, accompanied bytried par
snips, sugar corn, and boiled onions.
He appeared to weary at this point,
and mildly asked for small plate Of
plum pudding, piece of apple pie, and
a little ice oresm, to which he subss.
qusntly added q small cup Of cafe noir-
The proprietor was noticed rumina-
ting in a quiet corner and apparently
speculsting as to the adyisability Of an
early assignment for the benefit Of his
creditors. To question by the report
er as to Chang's wonderful appetite, he
replied with an earnest sigh
"Don't speak Of it; my gracious! |
never have had such an experience.
When Captain Bates, Barnum's giant,
was here, l was astonished to see how
little food he required to sustsin his
immense frame; but this Chinese gian,
has the stomach of an ostrich and the
appetite Of goat. Mind you these
dishes are not Of the order received by
old din. rs-out, many Of whom have
gone through with much longer list,
but they are what We in the business
call full por lions, that is, any one Of
the several dishes eaten by him this
evening would satisfy the hunger Of an
oiuAudIy m6u'
l don't want any more giants they
are blessed with the appetite of Chang.
Why, | contracted to entertain him at
the rate Of 81 a day Just cast your
eye over the bill Of fare and see what L
weuld receive for the same meal from
any regular customers"
The reporter did 80, and found that
be would be compelled to pay exactly
IS IS for similar repast.
The restaurateur Continued
"Now, you figure it up. There is |
s5.95 for one meal. Well, he has
three other table exercises during the |
day, and one or two bites, as he calls |
them. Then he goes to the bar-room,
and to the inquiries Of his manager and
others as to his health, replies
" Il don't feel very well lost appe
Llts.'"

sT. PETERSBURG, Friday, March 10,
lSSl.-M. Giers, Minister Of Foreign
Affairs, has addressed . circular to the
Russian representatives abroad. 1t
says:
Russia has nov attained her full dc.
velopment. Feelings Of jealousy and
iiscontent are equally foreign to her.
The Emperor will first give attention to
the internal development of the State.
The Bmperor's foreign policy will be
entirely pacific. Russia will remain
faithful TO her friends, reciprocate the
frisndliness of all the States, and ac,
in common with other governments in
maintaining the general peace.
only the duty ofprotscting her honor
or security may divert her from the
work Of internal development. The
Emperor will endeavor to strengthen
her power, advance her welfare and Sc
cure her property without detrimsnt TO
others. These are the principles by
ahich the policy Of the Emperor will
invariably be guided.
The Novoe Vremya says; "The Rus.
sian authorities were advised some
months ago that Nihilis's from Chicago
mad re.entersd the country"
The Imperial Heralds have proclaim
cd that the body OF the Emperor will
be removed to the Petropaulovsky For
tress on Saturday. All the houses,
shops and public buildings will be
drsped in black and white.
Jeliaboo, the instigator Of the plot to
blow up the Imperial train near Mos.
COW, was arrested on the ll,h inst.
He appears to be one Of the leaders Of
the Nihilists
LONDON, Friday. March Is, 1881.
A dispatch from St. Petersburg to

The ground dug up where the mine
was discovered has been retilled, the
doors of the shop in which the mouth
of the mine is situated sealed up, and
a guard stationed at the premises. Il,
has been decided to erect q religious
momento on the spot where the Gear
fell.
"Ths revolutionary chief captured
two days before the assassination CON.
fessed after the deed was accomplished. &C
aud so deeply iucriminated Ronssakof

Hence the arrests On Monday and

Petitions are in circulation and are
being numerously signed, asking the
Legislature to pass bill enabling the
Levy Court to refund to the original
subcribers the amount subscribed and
paid for the erection Of the Third street
bridge. 1t Is urged BY those favsring
the reimbursement that fhe county in
the first place should have paid for
erecting the bridge, but as the build
ing Of 1t was an experiment, Il was
only when 8 number Of citizens came to
its aid that II was built. The bridge
has proven to be Of snch vast benefit to
the citizsns that the public could not
get along we'll without It, and Is the
bridge is for the public good, the psti.
TONERS use the strong argument that
the public should pay for it.
