The charge for q telegram between Chris
t~iansted and F~rcderiksted is 20 cents when
the number Of the words does not e>ceed
20; above that number 10 cents are to be
paid for every set of 10 words or under.
For telegraNs which are to be forwarded
to st. Thomas from the West India and
Panama Telegraph Company's station in
Christiansted the charge for sending them
from that station to ST. Thomas must be
paid in addition TO the a~boyenamed charge.
81.
No one is entitled to demand to hold
atelephOne conversation for a longer time
than 10 minutes. Permission FOR Il longer
conversation will, however, he given when
no kilograms have been given in or tele-
phone conversations announced. The
payment for a telephone conversation is al
ways to be made in advance and by the
person applying.
The charge for a telephone conversation
is 20 cents for every 10 minutes or under
that the telephone is used. No charge is
made for calling the person with whom it
is wished to converse.
8.
When from neglect or fault at the tele-
graph stations, a telegram does not reach
it's destination the charge paid will be re-
turned.
Beyond this amount the sender cannot
lay any claim to compensation. Thus no
compensation can be given for the conse-
quence Of faults and irregularities indealing
with the kilograms, forwarding and dis
patching them.
In counting the number of words in a
telegram the following rules are to be oh
served: All that the sender writes in his
telegram with a view to having it telc-
graIhed counts in the number Of words.
The greatest length Of a word is fixed at
Z syllables. Should a word contain more
syllables, the following up to Z are counted
as a new word, and 50 on.
1t is not permitted in kilograms to use
combinations or alterations Of words
which are opposed to the general usage
of the language.
Words joined by ~hyphens are courted at
the number of words used in their compo-
sition. Words which are separated by an
apostrophe are counted as 50 many distinct
words.
Numbers which are written in figures,
are counted thus ) figures or under count
as one word. Should the number contain
more figures the following to the 9th in
elusive count as a new word, and so on.
Every separate character, letter or Inquire
counts for one word; the same applies to
an underline drawn under one or moro
words. Punctuation marks, hyphenS,
quotation marks, parentheseS, fresh para
graphs are not connted. Those points and
commas, however, which are used in The
formation Of numbers, and bars Of division
are counted as a figure. Those letters
which are added to the figures to show
that they are ordinal numbers are each
counted as a figure.
In case of disagreement between the
sender and the station receiving the
telegram concerning the number Of words
therein, the sender must abide by the
number given by the station, but he
may demand that the case shall be
laid before the Official experimenting the
Telegraph service, whose decision he has
to submit to.
The above regulations are here

Detailed Account OF the Typhoon
in Japan.
TERRIBLE Loss OF LIFE AND
PROPERTY.

SAN FRANcIsco, Oct. % The steamer
Arabic, from china and japan, brings addi-
tional details of the great typhoon of Septom-
Der, 18th, which caused such terrible destruc-
ton o. life and property at Yokohama and
Toxic. The storm came up SO rapidly and
with such tremendous furS that no precautions
could be taken. In Yokohama the entire lower
part Of the CITY called the settlement" was
completely wrecked. No house was left stand
ing. The Inhabitants made no attempt to save
their property, but fled for their lives to escape
drowning from the rushing waters driven upon
the land by the fury of the wind. Toe news
papers make no attempt to furnish the details
of the destruction in that part OF the city.
They summarize by saying that as the settle
ment was destroyed it is useless to publish any
details. The higher portions of the city were
NOR. exposed and we're equally unfortunate.
Several of the largest and most substantial
buildings were swept away as if built of paste-
beard. In that section alone 12S houses were
destroyed and 800 damaged.
The loss of lie on shore was less than at sea.
OF the so sailing vessels 53 were lost with 223
persons on board. Twelve vessels with 120
persons are also missing. OF five life boats
that went to rescue the drowning crews, four
we're swamped and ten men Of their crews
were drowned. The typhoon was the severest
experienced since 1870.

AN IGNORANT CRITIC.
Errors and vagaries of 81. John Pro-
hibifionist.

To the Editor Of the Press:
When q Democrat assumes the role of q
Prohibitionist and attempts to masquerade as
genuine temperance reformer, he should be
more careful to conceal his identity than ia
tion.st, who rushes to the Argus office with
what that paper is pleased to term "An
Answer to Press Editorial" 1t ia easy to
read between the lines the Bourbon ante
cedents OF its author as well as to note his
misinformation as to matters in regard TO
which "the only genuine Prohibitionists"
should be better informed. He does not
hesitate to deride as insignificant the vote in
this State upon the prohibitory amendment
deemed it sufficiently emphatic to call for
special resolution Of coDgratulation and
temperance men everywhere characterize it as
grand verdict In favor of the principle for
which Maine has so long contended. That
victory for prohibition such as has been
achieved in no other State, was won avowedly
as non-parti an triumph, and was in no man
ner aided by the ST. John movement.
Whatever political views the sneakers from
abroad held, it is noticeable that not one OF
Them deemed 1t discreet to ventiiate his
peculiar views upon ths wisdom of the St
John movement before a Maine audience
For the information Of the writer in the Ar
gus it should be said that Rev. H. @. MunsOE,
Secretary of the State Committee, is not and
never has been sat the head of the great order
of Sons of Temperance of Maine," and was
not a member Of that order during the cam
paign; neither has that gentleman ever Off
ciated with the st. }, hn psrtyl Though
never Republican he very we'll understands
that the National Prohibitory Party movement
in Maine is inimical to the best interests of
"enforced prohibition" But the inaccuracies
of the "St. John Prohibitionist" are so numer-
Gus as to reveal the true character OF the writ
or, aud to indicate that whatever else he may
be he is certainly novice in the Temperance
work. Before esssyiDg again to speak for the
Prohibitionists of this State he would do well
to seek instruction of some one better acquaint-
ed with temperance matters in Maine.

Gov. Cleveland Reviewing the Troops.
New YORK, Oct. 28.-Gov. Cleveland, while
in this city, as commander in chief of the mill
Tia of the State of New York reviewed to-day
the First aud Second division of the National
Guard. The regiments taking part in the re-
view were the 22d, 11th 9th, 18th, 7th, SLh,
90 b and list, forming the frat division, and
the 13rh 14th, 23I, 32d and 47th, forming the
second. Several batteries of artillery also par
ticipated. The marching of the troops was
very fine and elicited repeated cheers from the
spectators. When the several regiments
reached the reviewing stand and saluted the
governor they were cheered TO the echo and as
the battle flags of each were borne past Gov.
Cleveland Ii ted his hat which action in every
instauee evoked further cheers Among the
occupants of the reviewing stands were many
ladies. among them two sisters of Gov. Cleve-
land The review came to close at O'Clock,
and the Governor and his staff we're then
driven away escorted by Gen. Thaler and
Christensen and their staff officers and the
great throDg Of people dispersed.
After the review Gov. Cleveland and his
staff were entertained by Maj. Gen. Tbaler

Governor left the hotel in time to take the

the worship of absolute spirit. Brahmanism
has weakened the ethical sense of the Him
doos. Their Pantheism makes no distinction
between good and evil. Morality can hardly
be said to exist. Lying is a prevailing sin.
There comes another result-intellectual slav-
cry. The lack Of individuality abase-
ment of man before nature-The dwelling on
the future produces mental inertia. The doc.
trine of TRANSPORTATION of souls proceeds nat
urally from these doctrines concerning God
and man. The rat, the snake, the vulture
may contain the souls of men who have COM
mItted wrong. The doctrine OF the omnipre-
sent spirit makes man and beast co-eqdal.
Again the result of this religion which de-
grades human nature, is seen In the disregard
OF the rights OF man The king is tyrant,
the four castes-priests, kings and warriors.
agriculturists and merchants, and the Soodras
make imDassable barriers between men. The
Brahmin or priest is lord over the lower castles
In closing Mr.. Blanchard acknowledged the
Importance of the emphasis of Brahmsnism on
spirit instsad of mattar-for eternity instead
OF time-on the infinite instead of fiDite-on
substance instead of form. Bat the doctrine
Of spirit needs the Christian doctrine of the
Father. The abasement Of the individual needs
the Christian doctrine of the i'm portaDce and
the exaltation of the individual. The looking to
the future life must be balanced by the Chris
tian doctrine of activity 10 good works in the
present life. There can be no true worship of
mere absolute existence. We must have the
Christian doc rne OF the personality and the
fstherhood of God. The immortality OF
Brahmauism is no real immortality. Itis the
doctriue of the absorption OF the individual in
the absolute existence. We must have the
Christian doctrine of personal immortality.
The speaker would therefore do justice to the
religion OF India, but he would not wish to
have it as his own. Christianity contains all
of the good which is In Brahmanism and sup
plements it with its own peculiar and inspiring
doctrines.

BRAHMA MANIsM.


MIR. BIanchard's Lecture Last Evening.
The Rev. Henry Blanchard delivered lee
ture last evening in the vestry of the Congress
Square church on Brahmanism. the Elder Re-
lgion of India. Unlike the religion of China,
which is associated with q great leader. Confu-
clus, the religion of India takes its name from
the name Of its Deity-Brahma. Its key note
Il this: Thofe is only one thing in the universe
aud that one thing is Spirit The whole lee
ture would only be full elaboration of this
pint. Before entering into details, Mr..
Blanchard gave brief description of India or
Hindostan, and short account of the history
OF the Hindoos. He then proceeded to show
the constituent elements of Brahmanism. 1t
worships the absolute existence. This, accord
ing to the institutes Of Menu, is the unknown
entity, which dwells in every form OF being
"has complete existence In all things whether
extremely high or extremely low" But this
existence has no attributes-p ysical or moral.
The religion therefore Is Pantheism-all is
God. Looking upon nature, Brahmanism be-
comes idealism. Beneath the chengsable, the
imperfect, is the eternal reality. Even the
law Of the land, declared that everything ma
terial procseds from the immaterial Nature
therefore is only Maya or Illusion. This sys-
tenn distroys all ipdividualism and leads to ia.
talism. Man is nothing; God is all. Man can
have no control over events. He is In the
grasp OF inexorable fate. From such ideas
there comes the inevitable result that the Hin
doc is engrossed By the future life. He does
not care for the present and for earth. He
longs for higher existence. Human life there
fore in India is held as very cheap and almost
Wort bless. Hence there is no progress. Super
stition also abounds, and idolat-y everywhere
raises its grot sque idols. Asceticsm is an
other result. To swing on hooks, to cut oneself
with knives, to starve the body is the strange
degradation OF religion which begins with
