more like a chapter out of Rider Haggard
than like anything actually witnessed in
this world. This was in the country of the
Chites. great fire was prepared. into
which five old men were cast. after having
been stabbed TO death; the sixth victim,
girl of sixteen, leaped OF her own accord
into the flames, The party who saw this
horrible occurrence were concealed in
corner of the cave in which it took place
and were themselves suffering from hunger
and the fear Of being discovered by blood
thirsty natives What happened after
ward is described as follows:
Back to the village wound the serpent coils OF
the procession Little torpid, filthy gnomes,
with murder DOING in their small black eyes, they
might have crawled from holes in the sand, or
hatched out Of the brown cracked pods OF the
Weedy growth around. Sanguinary appetite had
been quenched; the body called for that OF
more substantial nature; and back To their abqdes
they wended their way there to spend time IN
ieasung and giuttony, and one long-eontnued
and bcstidl debauch.
Never the memory Of that long day Of sui
terlnF ON the I'd OF September fade from my
memory. blue pcliucid sky, hecked by not a
sangie cloud; vast azure dome, in which the
white, round sun hung high, and struck its rays
upon the earth like fiery arrows; a baked ambient
air, which danced and shimmered the broad,
brown surface of the surrounding plateau at our
very feet a landscape gashed here some sixty feet
IN depth by the VIDE wash OF a thln rlVer, heap
ing up in pink, gravellv cones the farther side;
all these and more we dcScried from vigil
place, with forJy-cight hours of such anguish Of
body and soul bluHted intelligence was
capable Of experiencing. 1t was a moment when
the earth seemed TO have rolled back upon itself
and brute instinct was more Conteuding with
ihe IOICeS OF humanity and civilization for the
mastery. The sky above US grew bluer and buer,
and even the sun had long since ceased to ap-
pear natural The mountains lay in corrugated
ridges all around, streaked with numberless
chasIns lying like hair lines on the surface
Everything had faded into bizarre and hide0us
panorama The widest imaginings Of DaBte's
Inferno here found their earthly counterpart.
The party finally had the good luck to
escape from their perilous position with
out eneountering any of the extremely un-
pleasant inhabitants, and this is only one
of several thrilling experiences which are
recorded in the book. The author tells,
among other things, OF a personal en-

Asiatic TraNpfs.

Through Unexplored Asia" by William
Jameson Reid, is the latest addition to the
list of recent books on the Chinese Empire
and other comparatively unknown parts of
Asia. AS the authors Of these works have
uSually to incur considerable expense and
spend much time in gathering material, the
book is likely TO be Of a considerable size;
and MI Reid's work is not an exception to
the rule. It is bulky, but entertaining
The style is rather informal. but not slip
shod, the illustrations are numerous and
fairly good and the incident is sometimes
sensational, and almost always of interest
We are informed that a sequel to this book
is 10 be published in time, in which the
second half of the explorers work will be
fully described. This second volume will
deal with the exploration of the region ly-
ing about the headwaters Of the Hoang Ho
River, and with the eastern provinces of
China
All the features of the regions explored
are taken up in turn-the habits and char
acteristics OF the native, the mineral
wealth of the country, the manufacturing,
when there is any, the topography of the
region explored, and so on. There is a
vast amount of useful information in the
book, mingled with some humorous Incl
dents which make the narrative more in
teresting than a merely didactic account
could be.
The country covered Is mainly Western
China and Eastern Tibet. In connection
with the experience of Henry Savage Lam
dor. which attracted so much attention
last year, and with the later and much
more scientific work of Sven Hedin, this
Will be 4 good book OF reference, though
1t is less pretentious than either of its
predecessors
Mr. Reid, like other travellers, found the
Tibetan lamas most repulsive and unpleas
ant people. and his whole soiourn in Tibet
was marked by incidents rather more ex-
citing than agreeable. The explorers saw,
among other things, a human sacrifice,
which is graphically described, and reads

The Children.

When the lessons and tasks are all ended,
And the school for the day IS dismissed,
The little ones gather around me,
To bid me goad-nig and be kissed.
o. the little white arms that encirCle
NV neck IN their tender embrace!
O. the smiles that are halos Of heaven
Shedding sunshine Of love on my iace'
And when they are gone sit dreaming
OF my childhood too lovely TO last;
OF JOY that my heart VIII remember
While it wakes TO the pulse Of the past,
Ere the world and its wickedness made me
A partner Of sorrow and sin;
When the glory Of God was about ne
And the glory Of sladness within.
All my heart grows as weak as a woman's,
And the fountains OF feeling VIII hOw,
When ] think Of the paths steep and stony
Where the feet Of the dear ones must go;
OF the mountains of sin hanging Ger them,
OF the tempest Of fate blowing Wild
OH there's nothing earth hall so holy,
As the innocent heart OF a child!
They are idols Of hearts and Of households,
They angeles OF God in disguise;
His sunlight still sleeps on their tTesses;
His glory still CLEANS in their eyes;
Those tenants from home and from heaven
They have made more manly and mild;
And | know now how Jesus could liken
The kingdom Of God to a child
ask not life for the dear ones,
All radiant, as others have done;
But that lie may nave JUST enough snadOW
To temper the glare Of the sun.
l would pray God TO guard them from evil,
But my prayer would bound back to myself;
All! seraph may pray for a sinner.
But sinner must pray for himself
The twig is so early bended,
/ have bauished the rule and the rod;
/ have taught them the goodness o. knowledge,
They have taught me the goodness Of God,
Ny heart is the dungeon Of darkness,
Where / shut them for breaking a rule;
My frowu is sufficient correction,
Ny love is the law Of the school.
I shall leave the old house in the autumn,
To traverse its threshold more;
All how / shall sigh for the dear ones,
That meet me each morn at the doorl
shall miss the "good-nights and the kisses,
And the gush OF their innocent glee.
The group on the green, and the flowers
That brought every morning for me.
/ shall miss them at morn and at even,
Their song in the school and the street;
/ shall miss the low hum Of their voices,
And the tramp Of their delicate feet,
When the lessons of life are all ended
And death says 'The school is disnissedN'
May the little ones gather around me.
To bid me goodnight and be kissed!

Thanksgiving.

Bloom Of spring and summers glow
joyful come and swiftly 90;
Not a hint you find today
OF the aure0le OF May.
Dead are all the flowers OF June,
Changed the cooling brooklet's tune;
Summers singing birds have flown
To some far off, tTOpic zone.
The gorgeous show October gave
Nature would not pause 10 save;
But Fastening on the rapid year
Stands in desolation drear.
How the north wind means and grieves
Over carpets of dead leaves;
But in cellar, barn, and bin
Haryests rich are gathered in.
Wars grim face, a spectre drear,
Trembling, feels its finish near;
II came that Tyranny might cease
And Justice bring enduring peace.
Thanks I'LL the hearts for halcyon skies,
And bcttered human destinies;
For the swift wears, which, as they hy
Lift up mankind in passing by.
