CHINESE SOLDIERS.

While in Hong-Kong, Lord Charles
Beresford gave his opinion about the
Chinaman as a soldier.
He said "he did not know any nation
which had more of the characteristics
required in soldiers They were sober,
obedient, easily managed and quick
to learn. If they were we'll led, if their
contract was kept as to their. wages
being paid on the first of the mon II,
and they were properly fed and cloth

quently in the dispatches? Why, the
coolies, men picked up in the streets
of Hongkong, who were shot down in
hundreds while putting scaling ladders
against the enemy's ramparts.' His
Iordship repeated that if treated fairly
and led properly the Chinese made just
as good soldiers as any other nation.
The relative merits of the trained
soldiers of different nations are con
stantiy discussed by those who are
partisans, or are influenced by national
prejudices But, on the whole, the men
who have from close observation and
actual experience the best information
on the subject, do not make any wide
distinction between soldiers equally
well trained, and equally we'll Offered.
The advantage should he with Asiatic
troops as. by religious training, they
have no fear of death. At close quar-
tiers which seldom happens, the temper
aments OF different nationalities may
count kinglake claimed that 1t did,
during the Crimean war. 1t is said
that the Spaniards should have easily
held the heights of San Juan. But II
the men were not trained and the OF
ficers were incompetent, as in fact they
were, this event furnishes no proof OF
the capacity of the Spanish soldier. On
lne other hand, the conduct Of the ne
gro Regulars in attacking the same
heights, is the very best proof OF the
general statement made by Lord BereS
ford. What the Rough Riders would
have done, if left alone TO capture the

that the order TO advance was foolish
and involved useless slaughter. Ions

to sway about as they do in crowds where
there are nervous or mischievous persons
who insist on pushing.
Burbank was almost carried off his feet,
and he made frantic effort to grasp the
invisible something that he had previously
endeavored to find above his head.
"See here, old man." exclaimed Lambert,
what are you trying to find up there!
Burbank gave start, as if he had just
been aroused from a trance, looked sheep
