The chapel capacity of the lnstitu-

fully tested at the annual closing exer-
cises. People 90 there who care little
for spoken orations, and essays and

sympathy that ere irresistible. Recita-
tions, essays, flag drill, the presenta-
ton OF diplomas by Superintendent

Percy Jones was valedctorian, and his

very timely talk, and Governor Lon

delight. God be with you till we meet

The Institute for the Blind had its

The unofficial narratives coming by
way of Shanghai. vary and bears in
ternal evidence of supplanting the
main facts with guess work. One dis
patch says that the Yorktown partici-
pated in. the bombardment Another
asserts that American marines formed
part of the storming force of 1000.
A press dispatch from Che Foo, dated
yesterday afternoon, says;
THE forts on both sides of Taku are
now occupied. The Chinese opened
fire unexpectedly, The casualties to
the mixed force we're as follows:
Killed, British, /; German, 3; Russian,
/, and French. ]. Wounded, British, 4;
German, z; Russian As, and French, 1.
Chinese torpedo boats were seized
The Shanghai correspondent of the
Daily Mail, telegraphing yesterday
says
"The forts began firing in Observance
to orders from Pekin, conveyed in
personal edict from the empress dow
ager by advise of tang ii president
of the ministry Of war;. Several war
ships were struck by shells from the
12-inch guns of the forts.
The heavy Russian losses were due
to the blowing up OF the magazines of
Mandshur.
-Four hundred Chinese are reported
killed. The Chinese, when retreating,
fell into the hands OF the Russian land
forces"
The Daily News has the following
from Che Foo:
Two of the forts were blown up.
The 50 war ships at Taku aggregated
100000 tons and carried more than
three hundred guns"
The failure of Admiral Seymour's
column and its retreat TO Tien Tsin
increases, it is presumed, the peril of
the legations in Pekin, which is still
| isolated, although Shanghai forwards
Chinese runors that the legations were
attacked by mobs, who were moved
down by machine guns, and also that
the members of the legations were
massacred
The powers are taking prompt ac-

French troops are waiting to embark
at Saigon, capital Of French Cochin

c. VS., New Orleans, La:
Ny Dear General-Yo ours to hand. The

II. As most of the old veterans are
nearing the summit, which many O.
them have already reached, and as ole
age and the infrmitics oflife are rapidly
bearing them onward to the grave, thi'
increased assistance in the eyentide e
their lives, from the generous people o.
great State, comes as precious boon
the extent of which cannot be expressed
by words.
III. In the name of all of the old U
C. V. whom it is his high honor to com
mand, the general commanding, ex
presses heartfelt gratitude and thanks
to the members of the senate and hous,
of the great commonwealth of Missis
sippi for these very generous and lib
eral appropriations for the sick anC
helpless old Confederates, and tn,
widows and orphans of those who ar
