France an d China.

PARIS. Sept. 12.-.According TO Off.
cial statements the total number of
forces under the French flag in Tonquin
is $4,000. Ofthese IA, 900 are Europeans
and the rest native auxiliary troops.
PARIS, Sept. 12.-The Patrie and the
National, under reserve, give currency
to report that negotiations with China
have been revived by France, tending
to peaceful settlement of all questions
at issue.
PARIS, Sept. 12.-The Tsung li-Ya-
men, in replying to the French ulti-
matum of July 18th, announces that,
in accordance with the second article oi
the Tien-Tsin provisional treaty, China
Ia prepared to withdraw its garrisont
from Tonquin after the expiration of a
month, and that China respected the
terms of the second article. France,
they say, ought to respect the third
article. The French demand for indem.
nifty, they claim, is not in accordance
with the Ave articles of that treaty II
in prejudice Of their friendly relations
and contrary to internationa law.
The Tsung-li-Yanen asks II the Gov
ernment of France cannot wait unit
China withdraws her troops from Ton
quin, when complete treaty will b,
ARRANGED. They also aver that If th'
question of indemnity Is not considered
as being settled by the Tien rxtn treaty
the demand for indemnity Is opposed I,
the third article. 1t is lamentab:e tha
the arrangements for the making Of ,
proper treaty should be delayed by an,
demand for indemnity. The forcibl,
taking Of a guarantee and indemnity IL
contrary to the treaty, and compel
China to give the Treaty Powers q his
tory of the Tonquin question, togethe
with the treatment of China, and tn
latter government awaits an epportuni
ty to discuss the question.
The Tsung Ii. Yamen request that M
Patenotre, the French ambassador, shal
come to Tien-Tsin, arrange a de6nit
treaty, manifest mutual sincerity ,an,
strengthen the friendly relations be
tween the two nations. This would b.
the proper mode of procedure, according
TO international law. The Tsung.l ii
Yamen announce that they will not b
moved by any mans orders.

Moorhead News; The incorpor-
atOrS of the MOorhead & Chicago rail
road will meet within few days to
elect officers and directors. After
the election, steps will ut once be tax
ell to secure the right of way within
the cooperate limits of the city Of
Moorhead, and to survey the route to
point forty miles south, For fifteen
miles south from the city limits the
road will run through the land of E.
C. Sprague, one Of the incorporators,
ard of course the right of way for that
distance is an assured fact. It is not
anticipated that any trouble nor a
great amount of expense will be in
volved in securing the right of way
the remainder of the forty miles be-
yond which point the route has not
yet been fully determined upon, and
the directors thence will depend upon
the inducements held out by the
communities, such as donating right
of way and voting bonds to assist the
company in the construction of a
road. The company has been in cor
respondence with Chicago capitalists
and much encouragement is met with
from them, who consider that the
trade from this section is worth the
effort of obtaining.

George Stinson & Co., the celebrated
art publishers, of Portland, Maine,
undoubtedly pay more money for post
age stamps than any other firm in the
world; for the last five years their
postage has averaged over two thous-
and dollars q week. making a grand
aggregate of over five hundred and
twenty thousnd dollars; this is about
the three hundredth part Of all post
age OF every description collected by
the United States government during
that time, and in this connection it
must be borne in mind that the coun-
try now has over fifty million souls.
and fifty thousand postofflces. But
| the enormous sum paid for postage
| represents only the cost of sending the
light packages, letters and circulars.
for large heavy packages are sent by
express and freight. Messrs. Stinson
&Co. publish every description of pict-
nres of the better class, and their trade
now extends over the entire world.
Commencing at the bottom, they have
worked their way up to the top, ster
by step, and thereby, added to the
greatest push and enterprise, they
have that solid practical experience
that is always necessary to the best re.
suits, in all things. They carry in
stock millions of pictures, and are al
a moments notice ready to fill a. five
cent order, or one for thouands OF
| dollars; they employ some five hun
dred artists, clerks, and workmen
their machinery and appointments
are OH a magnificent scale, and q trade
Of ten thousand dollars q day, on al
average. is required to keep them
