Advices from South Dakota say that
everything docs not look promising for
this, the first winter of the new State.
Intelligence received from Miner County,
in Central Dakota, is that large numbers
of farmers had a total failure of their
crops, owing to drought, and that they
arc destitute and dishear.ened. They
have no clothing for the winter, nor
wheat, corn nor vegetables, and scarcely
have enough hay to feed their teams and
cattle through the cold season. A Relief
Committee has been appointed, and many
towns throughout Dakota arc responding
literally with aid.

The talk heard so often nowadays
about China's growing fricndliness to the
outer barbarians is founded on error,
says an exchange. The Chinese hate
them as bitterly to-day as they did thirty
years or more ago. The lives and limbs
of foreigners in Canton are said to be
much less safe than formerly, inasmuch
that if they choose to visit, unattended,
the temples, the potters field, where thu
beheadings take place, or any of the
other famous sights in the wonderful city
the risk run is considerable.
