Chinese Deities.

IIlpuuc.
A late number of the Pekin Gazette
contains memorial from two very high
officials, one of them being the viceroy
of Nankin, the other the governor of
Kiangsu province. praying the emperor
to reward two deitfes with tablets and
honorable appellations, they having be-
haved very well for a number of years
past. The deities in question are the
god of war and the guardian deity of the
city of Hsu-chow,i in Kiangsu, where both
have temples. In times of food, drought,
or other distress they have never
failed to remove trouble and restore
peace and happiness. Thus, in the sum-
mer of 1876, there was no rain for three
months and the crops were being burned
up. A band of rebels took advantage
of the situation to work up the feelings
of the starving people and crisis was
expected. But on prayers being offered
to these deitieS SeasOnable rain fell in
such abundance that the rebel following
melted away. Again, in 1879 and 1889,
when the crops were deluged with
floods, recourse to the same deities had
the effect of securing good weather.
Early in the summer of the present
year, when the country was suffering
from the scarcity Of rain, the people re-
paired to the temples to ask the inter-
ventiOn of these gods. The same day a
response was given to their prayers in
the shape of plenteOuS and refreshing
showers.

A Singular Phenomenon.

Hartford Times.
A most singular scene was witnessed
on Long lake during Saturdays storm.
The lake is three miles long and is di-
vided into three bays. About 3:l5 a
vivid fash of lightning illuminated the
scenery, followed by terrific peal OF
thunder. The wind by this time was
blowing with cyclOnic force. Suddenly
there came roar, ana far down the
lake huge flame of fire could be seen.
The water for yards ahead was parted,
as though by gigantic pillow, and the
pillows seemed to rise to the side of this
furrow for fully twenty feet.
The ball of fire appeared to force the
water aside, and so deep did it go that
the bottom of the lake could almost be
seen as it passed the narrowS. The
parted waters, with their singular pro-
peller. advanced toward the head of the
lake with great rapidity. When within
one hundred yards of the shore there
came another flash of lightning, and the
fire disappeared as suddenly as it had
come.
The residents along the lake who wit
messed this strange phenomenon were
greatly alarmed. They insist that the
ball of fire was fully ten feet long, and
half of the mass appeared to be buried
in the waters of the lake. 1t was many
hours before the waters of the lake be
came calm.
