Chjna's Statement TO the United
States

WASHINGTON CITY, Nov. % The Chinese
minister, on behalf of his government has de
livered a letter to Secretary Frelinghuysen
relative to Anam. The following extract
gives the spirit of the communication:
IF France desires to maintain friendly
relations with China, why should
we not discuss the matter amicablya
If she insists upon invading the northern part
of Anam, where our troops are stationed,
this indicates that she is determined to break
the friendly tie, and our troops there cannot
remain with folded arms, but must meet them
in. the field We, therefore, send this commum-
cation to all foreign powers, showing, in the
event of the friendly tie being broken, thai
the cause of the rupture does not come from

The nIissinr A rnes ArntuLe

ToLoNo, ILL.,, Novl eat the time Agnes
Richards was married to Lewis Matzke in
July she had two other suitors. Although
she gave her hand to Matzke it appears she
still had tender regard for her former
lovers. One of these Agnes had loved not
wisely but too well, and as time passed it
bedame painfully evident to her that some
thing must be done to cover up her sin,
and she decided 10 have an abortion pro
cured. The man responsible for her delicate
condition was the person to whom she nat
urally applied for assistance A month ago
she was taken desperately i'll. Her husband
had no suspicion Of the cause till a note
thrown in the window for Agnes fell into his
hands Then a storm ensued, and Matzke
vowed summary vengeance, but his wife's
fearful supplications softened his heart and
dissuaded him. Her paramour sought
the far west. But the family af,
fairs were in condition too des-
perate for complete reconciliation. Matzke
continued to heap threats of violence upon
his wife As soon as she was sufficiently re-
covered to stand the journey, the other lover
came to the rescue. At midnight, with a
trusted companion, he drove close carriage
up to the Wilson house, eloped with the child
wife, and hurried off to Pesotum, a distance
of five miles. Here Agnes Matte was placed
upon the a. III. train and carried away to
Nation, where she has been kept and cared
for by friends, who have made every effort to
keep her whereabouts from the public.

Another Opinion OF Irving's Acting.

CINCINNATI, Nov. 22.-Manager Mills, of
this city has just returned from New York,
where he saw Henry Irving twice-in "Shy-
lock" and as "Louis XII" As the historic
Jew he regards Irving as the inferior of
Edwin Booth, but he says that the manner the
play was mounted and played, as a whole,
was marvellous. There was such an atten-
seen in this country Henry Abbey says that
Irving is the hardest worker he ever saw He
rehearses every day, and the humblest super
is taught Just where to be and precisely how
to bear himself when in the presence of the
audience. 6 The business with the caskets
was the most elaborate have ever seen, and
during the trial scene the spectators talked
and were interested just as they would have
been in real life while at the same, time the
by-play never interferred with or interrupted
the actions of the play. His Louis XII
was grand in every respect. Nature
never intended Mr.. Irving to be an actor All
Shat he is is the result of intelligent study. If
Edwin Booth was to pay the same attention
to the details of his plays that Irving does he
would be the greatest actor in the world.
think if Irving could stay with us for three or
four years he would revolutionize stage set
ting and playing. He is just as particular
with the scenes that he is not on in as be is
with his own" Mr. Miles says that in private
Mr.. Irving is very gentlemanly and unassum-
ing, but awkward and ungainly, though not
at all i'll at ease

had evidently been born in the woods and
abandoned by its mother The buzzards had
Just made the discovery, as their damage to
the child had been slight 1t was taken to
house near by, and its mother subsequently
found
& In the same county another was found in
the woods near Harris place while being de-
voured by buzzards. The child was not dead
when found, but would cry when pierced by
the beaks of the carrion birds. The appear
ance of buZzards and the cries Of the infant
were the means of its discovery. The mother
of the infant Mary Ann Sadberry, left it to
be devoured in the woods Immediately after
giving birth to it. Neither mother nor child
can live long. The mother has been ar
rested.

had died. At the inquest the unnatural
woman tried to throw the blame on Others
