CIVILIZATION’S REVENGES.
ee
[London Express. ]
The civilized world is aghast at the most awful crime of the century. Never has such a shout for vengeance gone up; never before has the head ef a great Empire pledged his own im- perial word that the murderer cf his subjects shall be terribly avenged.
It is too true that the history of the last hundred years has been stained with the records of more than one foul massacre, but in each case retribution, if not always swift, has been stern and sure
l‘wenty years ago, almost to a day, Tien Tsin, now apparently in peril, was the scene of a murder grim and great. It was the French population that the rage of the yellow hordes was Jirected against. The French consul, with his family and guests, was slain amid circumstances of sickening hor- ror. ‘The consulate was fired, as was the cathedral—an act which resulted in the total destruction of both edi- fics. Nor was this all. Not the saint- ly lives and gentle deeds of the Sisters of Mercy attached to the French Mis- sion could save them from an awful fate. The worst feature of the out- rages was that the fanatical mob, com- posed of the scum and sweeryings of the city, were instigated and directed by the local Mandarins. Prompt and vigorous representations secured the arrest, trial, and execution of a large number ef perso~s alleged to be con- cerned in the crimes, but so tortuous are the ways of Chinese officials that there isonly too much reason to sup- pose that the condemned persons were in very few cases the actual rioters. The date of the massacre was June 21, 1870.
‘(he nearest parallel to the crime of Pekin is foundin that of Cawnpore, more than forty years ago. July 15, 1857, saw this orgy of innocent b'ood. The male portion of the ga.rison hav- ing been treacherously murder- ed after having been first induced to lay down their arms, the women and children were carried to a build~ ing formerly used as an assemll/ room, where they were kept close prisoners. Nana Sahib, having leain- ed that nothing could stop the march of the British column under Have- lock, in his fury gave the fearful order that the whole party of prisoners were to be killed. The dreadful work was done by five men-—two peasants, two butchers; and one soldier of the bedy The massrcre began by some Sepoys firing volleys into the windows of the building. ‘Then the five assas- sins, armed with sabres, entered and closed the door. What next took place no one was spared to tell. Heart- rendering screams and the ‘noise of struggling reached the ears of those outside. Occasionally one of the mur- derers would come to the door, hand out a hacked and bloody sabre, and obtain a new one in exchange. ‘The screams became fewer and fainter; and at n’ghtfall had ceased altegether; only a feeble moaning and could be heard at intervals. ‘Then the ba-k fiends who were the hired instruments of this ghastly crime emerged from the slaughterhouse covered from head to foot with the blood of the women and children who had been done to death. A touch of unusual horrer was ada edto the thing by the fact that the murderers had not troubled to finish their bloody work. Three women anc upie of children, sorely wounded, alive when the doors of the slaughterhouse were O! ened the inext morning. Imagine their : sufferings during that awful night ! The bodies thrown In-
guard.

most intense horror and rage among
all classes.
Stern retribution followed hard on the heels of crime. “Remember Cawn- nore !? was the watchword, and our soldiers felt a grim joy in driving the bayonet home to the cry on their lips. Many of the captured rebels were blown from guns —a fearful punish- ment, as the Sepoys believed that in this way soul and b-dy were destroyed altogether.

lick the blood from the floor of the room in which the victim had perished. What this meant to the highcaste Hindus may be imagined. September 16, 1850, wasa day of - blood, when the Christian population [ of Aleppo were massacred by the fan- atical Moslems. Fire and sword wee carried into the Christian quarter o the city, and ghastly scene were e., ‘acted. Every Christian place of wor-
| ship was burned to the ground, dweli-
‘Ings were plundered and _ their inhabi- tants slaughtered. Vengeance was taken in summary fashion. No fewer / than 1,800 of the rebels were shot and their quarter of the city razed to the ground.
There is‘a sad_ similarity between the Peking horrorand the massacre of the members of the British mis- sion in Cabul on September 3, 1870, It was the month ot Ramazau, and Moslem fanaticism was at its heizht. Hatred of the stranger and the “in: fidel’ and hope of plunder combined fl.ed the mob, and they attacked the residency first, with stones and then with rifles obtained by force from the Ameer’s arsenal. Very soon the buildings of the mission were in a State of siege. The defenders were driven from point to point of their frail fortress, The men of the guides, who formed the guaid at the residency, fought like heroes headed by their British officers. The latter fell one by one, and the native of: ficers assumed the command, andwith unabated spirit headed the desperate charges with which the tiny force hop- ed to beat back its multitudinous as- sailants. At last the buildings were set on fire, andthe defenders, rush- ing out, were slain to a man. The British Resident, Sir Louis Cavag- nari, fell, and with him all the mem- bers of the mission.
England was not slow to take ample vengeance. Anarmy was quickly in motion and the command was entrust- ed to the great little General who is now Field Marshal Lord Roberts. The Ameer, after piteously protesting his innocence of any compticity in the massacres, took refuge in the British camp.
The operations were a splendid suc- cess, and, after a magriicent march ani some sharp fighting, Cabul was occupied, the Afghans disarmed, and England had the stern satisfaction ef knowing that the blood of her slaugh- tered sons was ainply avenged.

A Toronto Druggist Tried All the Catarrh Remedies Known.
SAYS JAPANESE CATARRH CURE IS THE ONLY PERMANENT CURE.
Mr. John Wrtie, the well-known Senior Clerk for Mr. Geo. Marshall, the leading Queen St. East Druggist, Toronto, writes :—‘* When I say I believe Japanese Catarrh Cure the only cure for catarrh on the market, [ think I know just what I am talking about. I have tried every remedy which I thought would do me good. and also several doctors, but only received a little temporary relief. After hearing several of. our customers, whe had used Japanese Catarrh Cure, speak so highly of it, I tried it. From the very first it gave me much relief, soon the dropping in my throat ceased, and now, after using in all four boxes of Japanese Catarrh Cure, find myself completely cured of this most disagreeable disease, after suffering for years. rave since recommended it to some of our customers, ind know of several of them whom it has cured.”
Japanese Catarrh Cure permanently cures catarrh and catarrhal deafness. All druggists, 50 cents.
