Capt Lee estimates the loss of hogs total in
the Yazoo country, and the loss of cattle full
ly75 per cent, and the fencing, with many o.
the smaller houses, destroyed. He recon-
mends the distribution of rations to continue
at least two weeks at Johnsonvillean and three
weeks in the lower Yazoo country, by which
time he thinks work may begin in the

take care of themselves. Seventy thousand

SAN FRANCISCO, March 21.-The Bulletin
publishes an interesting letter from Com
modoFe r. w. Shuieldt to Hon. A A. Sar-
gent, giving the result Of his observations
on China He sums up that there is no
use to attempt to put diplomatic intercourse
with China on the high moral ground or to
appeal to any of the motives which ordina-
rily govern nations. Ineradicable hate of
foreigners exists; sympathy will be con-
strued as weakness. If justice is done
China, it must be for its own sake, without
hope of appreciation. If exacted, it must
be unrelentingly. A show of force is the
only argument appreciated. China is es-
pecially antagonistic to our form of govern
ment. This is exemplifed in the treatment
of the returned Chinese students
