IN A CHINESE THEATRE.
>
It had long been my ambiticn to visita Chinese theatre, and so one evening we sallied forth under the wing of afairly clean but neceesarily fat, merchant of my husband’s ac- quaintance. I say “necessarily,” b2- cause this Chinaman was exceedingly wealthy and prosperous; andit is a well known fact in China that no one can possibly increase the magnitude of his worldly-possessions without at the same time increasing his chest and waist measurement. It is quite ridiculous to suppose a thin man can be well-to do. It wasthis man who said to my husband ;: “You belong to muchee thin; no catchee good chance; bime by plenty fat; face plenty fat; must catchee good chance.” He meant to imply thatat present he was much fo thin too be prosperous, but that by-and-by his face would become fat and his coffers full.
Well, we arrived at the theatre, a most unimposing-looking structure in a side street, turning to the roadway Only a thick whitewashed wall with one low, dark hole cut in the centre for an entrance, for all the world like a Chin- ese pawnshop. We were the centre of observation, and loud and personal remarks were passed upon our appear ance. Of course, 1 knew I was out- raging al their idea of propriety by ap- pearing there at all, as no_ respectibie Chinese woman ever enters such a place; but a Chinese opinion is the last thing in tte world one considers when living in China, and I wanted a new experience. After all, I have only a recollection of a sea of round, puffy faces,fand an atmosphere which reeked everything unpleasant, and on the stage was proceeding the never ending play that generally continues fer about a year. Icould make little of it, only every one seemedto look very fierce, and to strike attitudes, and all the women’s parts were taken by men Then at intervals weak tea, without milk or sugar, was handed rouni in little bawls with lids on, and again at intervales “the rag” appeared. ‘his was a cloth wrung out in boiling water, and passed along the line, and every one wiped his prespiring face uvon it and handed it on to his next neighbor. The fat merchant was on my right, and after going through the usual cere- mony, he passed it onto me. I had managed the tea, but the rag I could not, s» I bowed and smiled and passed it to my husband, and he—brave min pretended to wipe his face, and it dis- appeared dowa the line. It was an experience, and a fresh sensation is al- ways something to be grateful for; but I was very ill that night.

we are trying to force Western ideas of civilization, of religion, of go-a-head- ness generally. We expect them to enrage their Fung Shuey or ground Joss by the construction | of railways over his territory; to forget and insult their Josses, Joss-houses and images by the adoption of the religion of | Christ; to do away with the biessed refuge for all criminals, the priesthood, by depriving their Jossmen of a living, to acknowledge themselves an inferior and behindhand people by the adoption of our modern machinery in their cotton and paper mills, in place of the old hand labour system which helps to ‘eed Chima’s teeming millions; to do away with their exclusiveness, their placid content in themselves, by forcing them to open their ports to foreige commerce. Perhaps from these few recollections of several years iived amongst the Chinese, being as much intouch as a “foreign devil missisie” ever is with what Mr. Tar partit calls “theiz inner workings,” some slight idea may be gleaned of the revolution before they can take happily to our own notion of up-to-date civili- zation. And, should it ever come about, will they be any the happier for it?
PREPARING FOR WAR.
The New York Journal’s London special says : England firmly believes that France is preparing for hostilities, anda thoroughgoing “war scare” has seized Upon the nation.
Provincial papers have been harping on this scheme for some days, and at last the Pall Mall Gazette makes the statement editorial that the French are getting ready to fight.
The newspapers that have called at- tention to theactive French military and naval preparation point to the lay- ing in of supplies of coal, the strength- ening of fortified seaports, the increas- ing of the navy, the stationing of more ships at Calais, Brest and the Channel ports, the arranging for extension autumn manoeuvres close to the coast towns, and the unusuai activity on land and sea.
What has specially “‘scared”’ the Enz- lish are the French experiments with submarine boats, whilst France is be- lieved to have several effective ones.
The first official recognition of this state of things came recently, when orders of the English Admiralty for increasing the Channel fleet become known. It isthe custom to keepa large portion of the home squadron in reserve and out of commission at na- val stations. All the usual naval re- serve squadron will now be put into commission.
Tne newest and best battleships and cruisers are to be kept in a constant state of readi: eis. The h mz fleet will b+ devided into two squadrons, one never to leave the coast; the other never to go further than Gibraltar.
Miny ships are to be fitted out with wireless telegrapy, and the channel is to De patrolled by torpedo boats.

had got ready to move on Pekin. Lord Elgin sen: word there would be no further nezotiations until after the release of the envoys. Prince Kung, in his next communication, dodgsd the issue, but declared tnat the en- voys had been well treated. The advance was then begun. General Gordon reached the city walls on October 6. Prince Kung was given 12hours to openane_ of the gates. Just before the time limit expired rince Kung gave up. The gates were opened, and those of the prison- ers who survived were brought out in iron cages. ‘Thirteen had died under terrible torture and the survivors were ina condition beyond deszription. This was what inspired the terrible pillage and ruin that followed, includ- ing the burning of the summer palace, and the destruction or loot of $20,000,- ooo worth of statienary and movable property. “We could not plunder them properply,” Gordon said in his reports. “Gold ornaments were burned, being mistaken for brass. It was wretchedly demoralizing work for an army. Ev- erybody was wild for plunder.” When the treaty conceded by China was fin- a'ly signed, it embraced a_ provision for the payment of an indemnity of $14,000,000; $50,000 for the support of the family of each Englishman who had died in captivity, and $2,500 for the family of each native soldier who ; had died in captivity.
BISHOP STOLE A CHINAMAN.
London Chronicle.
It may not be generally known that Dr. Moorhouse, bishop of Manchester, once stole a Chinaman, but the offense was committed in his Australian days when he was bishop of Melbourne, so that he is probably saved by the sta- tute of limitations. The Presbyterians of Melbourne discovered a promising young Mongolian named Cheok Hung Cheong, trained him in their theologi- cal hall, helped himto the degree of B. A.at the Melbourne University, and made him an elder of the kirk. But one evening Mr. Cheong happened to speak at a missionary meeting, with Bishop Moorhuuse in _ the chair, and he spoke with such _ ability that the chairman was deeply impress- ed. Shortly afterward it was announc- ed that Mr. Cheong had be2n appoiut- ed superintendant of the Church of England missions to the Chinese in the diocese of Melbourne. There was naturally a noise in the Presbyterian camp, anda sharp practise was sug- gested, but Mr. Cheong passed from the Presbyterian to the Anglican fold with Oriental serenity. Mr. Cheong still holds the office ts which Bishop Moorhouse appointed him.
