SENATOR cANNoN's LECTURE.
Entertaining Account of the People
of the Orient.

Senator Cannon lectured in the dis
trict court room last night for the
benefit of the pull library, his sub
ject being "obseS tons in the Far
East" The room was we'll filed and
the lecture was most entertaining. The
speaker divided the time between
Japan and China. He had great praise
for the former country and its people.
The individual Japanese is not equal to
the Chinese in workmanship, etc, but
the nation is far ahead of China as a
nation. He gave some graphic pictures
of scenes in China, especially about the
prisons. where unfortunates often
throng to offer themselves as substi-
tutes for persons about to be executed
He brought back a bamboo rod with
which a culprit was punished by the
infliction of 500 blows. This the sena-
tor presented to Judge RolapD.

Cipher Writing.

The art Of secret writing, or writing
in cipher, was, according to Polybius,
invented by Eneas, author of treatise
on tactics and other works. He produced
30 methods of writing in cipher, which
no person could unfold, but we doubt
much whether they would preserve this
quality at the present day. 1t is no less
strange than true that this art, so i'm
portant in diplomacy, as long as couriers
are liable to be intercepted, was held in
adherence by the elector Frederic ii,
who considered it as diabolical inven-
ton. Trithemius, abbot OF Spanheim,
: had composed several works to revive
mis- branch Of knowledge, and Boville,
an ignorant mathematician, being UNI
able to comprehend the extraordinary
terms he made use Of to explain his
method, published that the work was
full Of diabolical mysteries. Poissevin
repeated the assertion, and Frederic, in
a holy zeal. ordered the original work
Of Trithemius, which he had in his
