An Oriental WAR Document.

The way the war spirit ia manufactured in
China against foreigners would be amusing
II 1t were not n sad reminder of the mental
status OF people in this 10Th century which
can thus be imposed upon. A pamphlet is
being circulated along the Chinese froptier
which opens with this comprehensive state.
menl: 'Thc Eurnucaus do not belong to
the human race. They are the Offspring of
monkeys or sscd with geese 1t is curious
mat the monkey was used in this amalra.
nation, Since in Oriental mythology they
so oitcn iiSllre as gods. Owing to the pecu-
liar habits of the Europeans they. are called
:" ankwitze' or devils OF Europe" This

social hierarchy for thcy "tali of nothing
but equality" Moreover, they distinguish

about half-past o'clock.
Mars is morning star and takes the third

when Jupiter seemingly outsrips him in the
race. For on the 10th, at 0'cl, ok in tie
afternoon, the two planets are in coninrc-
tion, being about one degree apart, Mars
being north. They will be near together
when they rise soon after l / o'clock on the

and the golden TINT Of Jupiter making an in
Ieresting contrast, and rs clearly determining

Mercury is evening star until the 9th, and
morning star for the rest Of the month
Mercury se,s a quarter before G O'Clock in
the evening on the BIS; he rises quarter
after O'Clock in the morning.
Venus is evening star. She is too near the
sun to be of any account at present.
The October moon fulls on the 10Th, att
one minute after two o'clock in the morn

The moon will be partially eclipsed on the
10th. The phenomenon will be visible
through the United States and on the Pacific
ocean. The eclipse commences III. 14ni. u.

remarkable for being the only lunar eclipse
visible in this latitude during the year.

Captain Donohuc, the customs officer at
Ogdcnsburg, n. y, has Just unearlbed au
extensive scheme of smuggling. The dis
| covery was purely accidental. On We'd
ncsday, Sept. 9th, j. II. Clavcrlnr, Young
| farmer living near Rensselaer, Falls, brought
| into Captain Donohue's Office small package
of diamonds, secured in Quill. lie also
brought with him pigeon iiil,d with bird
shot. lie explained tina. he had shot the
bird that morning. On examining his ~ 2e
the young man found attached to the lett
leg small roll securely tied with silk. In
vestiga,ion showed this TO be the large part
oil turkeys feather llltd with gl.icning
stones. These, he believed, were diamonds.
An expert jewcller, after careful ,xamlna-
| ton, pronounced the stones genuine dia.
| monds. A bird fancier declared that the
bird was carrier or homing pigeon. Cap.
tam Donohuc Immediately set out to disGov-
or and arrest the smugglers. The farmer
knew o! no homing pigeons kept in the
vicinity OF his place, and inquiry in the
surrounding towns and villages failed to re-
veal any. Half dozen men were sent out
with Clavering. They distributed them
about the country Immediately surrounding
RENSSELAER, Falls, and weeks careful
watching and waiting was rewarded with
the capture Of two pigeons with their prec
lous freight, Dul all efforts TO follow the birds
or to discover their destination signally
failed. All the trains crossing into Canada
were watched, aud on the 22d inst, wicker
basket containing four of the homing pigeons
was discovered. The basket was addressed
to ID. f. Harmon, Kempville, Canada,
and the charges upon it were pre-
paid. Two detectives were despatched
on the train carrying the basket
The depot at Kempyille is an old wooden
structure, and the birds were put off ut that
place and slowed away in an outer sled
with but little food. For five days the de-
tcctives waited in vain for the consignec to
claim his property, and then, reporting that
the smuCslers had evidently taken alarm, the
officers were ordered back TO this place. On
Friday woodsman by accident came upon
the hiding-place for which he had been
searching In goodcd marsh near the CEN
tie of Dekalb county he found log cabin
near which were several dove-cols and Il
number of carrier pigeons. The cabin bore
the appearance of having been recently
vacated, and it Is probable that the snug
gltrs had taken alarm at the non-arrival of
the three pigeons which hal been captured
and had fled. 1t is believed here that the
frauds have been carried ON for The past two
years, as the pigeons, in order to be thor
oughly trance TO return home, must lie
raised on the premises. The scheme, as
understood at Ogdensburg, was to digpn,cb.
about once week or ten Gays, n coyey of
twelve or fifteen pigeons loaded with dln-
monde. 1t is estimated that The total
amount struggled is between 3 10000 aud
