is set the spear head. This is made OF
fine steel, six inches in length and
triangular In cross section. One face
Is deeply Krooved 30 as to allow the use Of a
large amount of poison. These spears are
used with great skill by the Chinese. LIE
Yu, famous bandit, could throw one
through man at fifty yards. In the
Franco Tonquin war, a powerful Chinese
foot-soldier drove his weapon entirely
through two French infantrynlen. Il is
said the finer end handsomer spears are not
of Chinese workmanship, but are made by
Japanese, Corean, Auamite and Malay
| ironsmiths. How true this is I am unable
to determine.
OF halberds there is any variety, ranging
from the simple Lochabere ak and pole
AK TO the cumbrous aud complicated masses
OF metal that " ere so common at the age of
chivalry. The oldest specimen was one
which, instead of an ak on one side, had
what seemed to be a hammer head 1t
would make noble implement for driving
picture nails In walls near the ceiling.
In archery the Chinese have long been ex-
perts, especially those of Manchuria and
Szchuen. There bows are OF three types
the long bow, which is over five feet in
length, the short bow, which is abut four
feet long, and the cross bow. The
strings are made of silk, of gut
or OF a very strong homemade
the middle. Bows are graded according TO
their pull, the standard being 100 catties,
about 1875 pounds. To determine the pull
the bow properly strung is suspended from
the middle and weights hung to the middle
OF the string. until the latter is nearly an
arrows length from the bow. Famous
bowmen use bows with heavier pulls
ranging from $50 to 200 pounds, and one
distinguished Chinese Robin Hood is said
to have drawn 2O0-catty bow about 270
pounds. The bows vary greatly in ma
terials, construction. decoration and finish
They are made of one or several pieces of
wood, and are frequently inlaid or engrav ed
until they are a true work of art.

On tram running to Columbia a day
or two ago, an aged farmer, finding out

say was any man who voted for Haskell

Convincing Speech-s-New Cotton.

Petersburg, Sept. 8-Special.-A large
and enthusiastic assemblage gathered at
Prince George Courthouse to-day to lis
ten 10 speeches by Dc NJ. >. Holt, Hon.
George Perkins. of Charlottesville. and
Hon. James f. Epes. w. f. Gaines of
NottOway was present in the interest of
the Republican party, and proposed that
a joint discussion be arranged, which pro-
posal the Democrats accepted. tt was
agreed that DR.. Holt should open the ar
Gument, and that Mr.. Gaines should fol-
low him, after which Mr.. Perkins and
Mr.. Epes should address the crowd. DIR.
Holt in leading off made Il most excellent
speech. He referred 10 the fact that he
had always been a farmer, and that he
would join any association of men who
could improve the condition of the agri-
cultural element. He failed to see how
their ills could be remedied, save through
the agency Of the Democratic party. DR..
Holt discussed the Tnriff and the Pension
bills with singular elOquence and force,
showing that each of these measures as
administered by the Republican party was
Il menace 10 our financial safety. DIR.
Hollis speech made deep impression on
the crowd. Mr.. Gaines. in replying TO
DR.. Holt, made fair speech from Re
publican standpoint. He paid Particular
attention to the tariff. and tried t. show
Il Democratic administration.
Mr.. Perkins made Il clear, argumenfa-
tive address. in which he calmly lis
cussed the records of the two great ma
tOral parties, and spoke at cOnsdera-
bic length on the tariff question. He
showed that the present system Of Ia
tiOnal taxation as administered by the
Republican administration is species f
highway robbery. Mr.. Perkins address
was Il complete refutation of Gaines
charges. Mr.. Epes in giving an uc-
count of his stewardship, reviewed the
record of the Democratic representatives,
in the Eifty-second Congress- and proved
cOuclusiycly that the Democratic party
was in no wise responsible for any bad
legislation that may have been enacted.
The Third party were not represented
by any speaking, in fact. no one OF That
faith could be found at the meeting.
After the speaking the Democratic pal:y
of The county was re0rganized by tie
election of CAPTAIN 4. r. Hobbs rs
chairman and Mr.. Hunter Este seer.
tary The usual committees were ap-
pointed and II plan of campaign dis
cussed. The Democrats of Prince
George are thoroughly aroused, and VII
give a good account of themselves in
November next.
