A Ray of Hope.
BRIGHTER PROSPECTS.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1.-THE President is
undoubtedly better this morning, and high
hopes are entertained of his resovery. The
nausea from which he has been suffering was
evidently produced by the ether administered
at the last operation. His stomach seems
now to have recovered from its weakness, and
the doctors confidently expect the President
will be able by evening to take nourishment
into his stomach. The feeling here about the
President is now hopeful. In an interview
this morning DIR. Bliss was asked if there was
anything in the Presidents condition to indi-
cate py@mia, or if
BLOOD POISONING
was the cause of the Presidents unfavorable
symptoms. He answered emphatically in the
negative, and said there was no connection
whatever between the wound and the present

Out of the Fourth Story Window of the

This morning about 2 a. M, man. named

ment to the officer that Shubert was occupy
rear room in the Market hotel, Waba-

troubled with a nightmare, he jumped from
the window to the ground below, distance of
four stories. Strange to relate, Shubert was
only slightly injured-a few scratches
on his face and bruises on his body-and
dazed by. his fall, and muddled by poor
whisky of which he had partaken before
retiring, he jumped up and ran
down Seventh street until taken
charge of by Officer Hanft as above recorded.
Shubert was taken to the station house for
sefe keeping, where he was resting easy at
last accounts. The escape from instant death
is most remarkable.

DESPERATE STRUGGLE FOR A KNIFE.


WASHINGTON, Aug 17.-This morning at
4:3O O'Clock, While Mr.. w. C. McGill, one of
the guards at the Jail, was passing through
the corridor, something in the appearance of
Guiteau's cell attracted his attention. Enter
ing the cell, he found the assassin in posses
sion of knife. How he obtained it is a mys-
tery. When McGill demanded the knife, Gui-
teau refused to surrender it. Mr.. McGill drew
his pistol then, and an exciting tussel ensued,
Guiteau making every offort to get the pistol
from the guard. He succeeded after a strug-
gle, but McGill, after the most strenuous ex-
ertion,

Lord Shaftesbury.

1t would be almost treason to pass
over this name without paragraph
about the very first of living Christian
philanthropists. He was eig hty wears
old the 2Sth day of last April, and is vet
in possession of remarkable vigor of BODY
and clearness of mind. From 1926 to
1851 he was elected and reelected almost
continuously to the House of Commons,
until at the latter of the above dates, he
succeeded his father in the peerage. The
chief object to which he has devoted his
long and busy life, both in and out Of
Parliament, has been the Improvement of
the social and moral condition of the
laborlng classes. If any one wants to see
the sort of heroism embodied in this
veteran warrior for the right, let him turn
to his record on the "Ten Hours Bill !"
the Ragged School" system and the
regulation of labor in print works, fac
tories, coal-pits and similar places, where
employers were practicing a system of
white-l labor slavery more barbarous and
horrible than the African slavery of
America. The speeches of Lord Shaftes-
bury in those days, show that he
fought his way to the victory of those
humane measures with which his name
stands allied, in the face of the most
determined and insolent opposition and
oblo2quy. But the long dark night OF
trial has gone by, and the great grand
advocate of the rights of humanity lives
still to see the triumph of his plans, and
to be hailed wherever he appears in pub
lie with ovations, such as are accorded to
scarcely any other Englishman. Lord
Shattesbury's influence as an evangelical
in the Church of England is today mar
yellous, and octogenarian though he is,
his hands are still full of work for the
Master. He has from the beginning
been a nursing father of the Young Mems
CHRISTIAN Association, and is today pres
ldent OF the British branch of it. He is
president also of the British and Foreign
Bible Society, of the Pastoral Aid Society,
for the Conversion of the Jews and of
many other minor benevolent and Chris
tan and philanthropic institutions of
London: May he live to see full round
hundred years or more-God bless him

Copyright in China.

At present, after so much has been
said and done on the copyright question
as regards England and America, it is
interesting to learn in what light the
people Of the Celestial Empire view this
question of literary property. While it
may be said that there is no statute law
of copyright in China, there is on the
other hand an unwritten law that is
equally effective. From a paper on this
subject, read by Mr.. Macgowan at a
meeting of the North China branch of
the Royal Asiatic Society, Shanghai, we
find that on the title-pag of newly pub
llshed books in China there is not infre-
quently caution against their unauthor-
lied publication, showing at once that
literary property is liable to be stolen,
and that redress is afforded to authors
thus wronged. The Penal Code, how
ever, will be searched in vain for an en-
actment on the subject of copyright.
Chinese law, indeed, has never conceived
1T necessary to specify that particular
form of robbery which consists in des-
polling scholar of the fruit of his toll.
any more than to name the products of
husbandmen and artisans as under the
protection Of law all alike being re-

Hence, those who infringe the rights of
an author are liable to punishment of

If they print and sell his works without
authority; but if the trespass has gone
no further than printing, no copies Rav-
ing been sold, the punishment inflicted
IS only 30 blows and forfeiture of the
books and blocks. The right Of exclusive
Pu6llGation thus protected is not only
vested in the author, but is held in ner.
petuity by his heirs and assigns. EQUAL
protection is given to inventors and dis
coverers; the section Of the Penal Code
that takes cognizance of larcenies of a

The Prince of Wales Sons

FL. R: H. Prince Albert Victor Chris
tan Edward of Wales was born on the
Sth January, 1864, and H. R. H. Prince
George Frederick Ernest Albert of Wales
on the Sd of June 1865. The former was
therefore seventeen years of age in jan
uary last, and the latter was sixteen last
month. 1t is intended that Prince
George only shall be a sailor, but the
ohoice OF the navy as practical training
school for both princes has given great
satisfaction. Prince Albert Victor is
prevented from adopting the navy as a
profession owing to his constitutional
position as eldest son Of the heir-apparent
to the throne. The princes received some
preliminary education in the training

Bacchante" as cadets. During their
first voyage to the West Indies thew were
promoted to the position of midghipmen
and they still occupy that rank in the
same vessel. In their cruise with the
squadron they have mixed freely with the
officers OF all the vessels, with whom thew
seem to be highly popular. They have to
