WHAT TO EXPECT.

The report which came TO this cOun
try via st. Petersburg. but which, like
every other piece of startling news
from China, lacks confirmation, recalls
the tragedy of Cawnpore in India near
ly half century ago.
over 900 English men and women
were brutally maltreated and massa-
cred in that seige of cruelty and fierce
assault OF religious fanaticism which
forms a parallel to conditions as they
are believed to exist in Pekin.
The New York Herald of recent date
contained a narrative Of that other
Oriental tragedy. 1t was at this very
season. in 1857, that 465 men with their
wives and children withstood for three
weeks a countless mob of fanatical foes
until, as a compromise, Mana Sahib,
the leader. offered them safe conduct
provided they would leave the country.
on the 25th of June they accepted his
proffer and two days later, he violated
his faith and put them to death by fire,
sword and bullet in their helplessness
on the boats which had ostensibly been
provided for their transportation.
From that bloody slaughter on the
Gauges, whence only two officers and
two privates escaped, and in which
scores of men and women persisted, the
refined cruelty of the Mana preserved
some 100 women and children. These
were taken back to Cawnpore and kept
alive for two weeks in unimaginable
misery. Then they were butchered be-
fore the SepOy forces. within the very
sound of the guns of HavelOck's relief
columns, and their bodies, some with
life not yet extinct. were cast into the
great well which had served as the
tomb of upward of $50 victims of the
siege.
Whatever may be found in Pekin,
whatever may have happened there,
the wave of fanaticism which is sweep
ing China is quite as vicious as that
encountered in India; and some idea
of conditions there may be obtained
by reading Lord Roberts description
of the 'tresses. of nair. pieces of ladies'
dresses. books crumpled and torn, bits
Of work and scraps of music which he
saw in the shambles Of Cawnpore
months later. Just as they had been
left by the wretched owners"
There is no confirmation of the news
received via st. Petersburg. but history
tells us what is Dossibie-even prob
able,

Several interesting cases came up
before the District Court this week.
On Of these cases was that of the
Town of Houma versus J. IP.. Breaux,
afr. Breaux is proprietor Of the board
ing house known as the Bresux house,
and refused to pay the hotel license
leyisd by the Town Of Houma, amount
ing 70 some eighty odd dollars. Mr..
Breaux was ably represented by Mr.,
C. w. DuRoy and Mr.. L. c. Noise
represented the Town Of Houma. 1t
seems, that according to the Ordi-
nance levying the license that boarding
houses chat have four or less than
four rooms are exempt from paying
the license. Ny. Breaux's lawyers sue
ceeded in proving that his clients
hotel was not in the license class as
some Of the partitions were removed
some time ago leaving only four large
rooms in the hotel, that are used by
dodgers. JudgeC aillouet decided the
case in MIR. Breaux's favor and against
the Town Of HOuma.
