‘= ns Sede ae ~ Che Daily Cxramingr JANUARY 16, 1885. The Franco-Chinese War. [t is a curious affair, this war betweeu France and Chinsa,which is no war so far as international law is concerned, as neither of the belligerants have formally >} of Charlottetown, an declared war, yet they shoot each othe by scores and hundreds, and destroy each others ships. Soth naval aud military officers of ‘ther nations are watching the struggle} with much interest. The Chinese are, | of course,no match for the French in} discipline of soldiers, experience of| officers in civilized warfare, o7 in scien- | tific knowledge and appliauces in war, ot even iu peac e.With a few well-disciplip- ed soldiers,armed with the most improv~ ed patterns of warlike implemeots,the ill- driiled and ill-armed Chinese soldiers are easily defeated; aud the ironclads and torpedo boats of the French work havoc amougst the ships and juuks of the Chinese. There is no equality ov the land between the forces of the two nations; and it is equally true at sea. Che opportunity is, turuished to the French to practically test their own scientific improvemeuts in warlare, the other vations. ‘wo branches of service, never before thoroughly in actual war, have been conspicuously successiul, as chances were offered to ambitious youvg oflieers to put in practice against aud under the eyes of an enemy, improved torpedo appliances and revolver guns. At the Freoch attack on the Chivese forts and fleet at Tamsui, the French Admiral called an assemblage of the commanders of the vessels and torpedo boats on the flagship, and the duty of each was pointed out to him, aud the Chinese vessel or work each was to attack desiguated. As soon as the word was given each French ship applied itself to the work .apportioved. One daring young officer awaited with im- nowever, inventions of their and tested patience, in his torpedo launch, the orders to attack. When the wel come signal was given, the tor- pedo boat darted away fron. the side of the parent ship, aud in o few minutes, with the rapidity almost of lightning. it struck the Chinese vessel agaiust which it was aimed, orders were given to reverse and back away from the doomed ship, but the torpedo boat was caught by her impact against the vessel. Every moment was precious. Again the attempt was made to back from the ship. A Chinese marksman aimed at the officer who was exposed in the stern of his boat, and the bali struck and lodged near the eye. Just at that moment the launch succeeded in cleariug itself. Two precious minutes’ had elapsed while the launch was fast, but she man%ged to get away from danger, just as the Chinese vessel was destroyed with allon board by the attached tor- pedo. The launch returned to its ship, and the whole affair lasted only nine mnioutes. The revolver guns—it is the Hotchkiss which the French use, and which are of the same class or construction as the Gatling and Nordenfeldt, which hundreds of our people saw on board of the war ships last season—the revolver guns, placed ia the tops of the French ships, worked great havoc on the opeu decks of the Chinese fleet. The Chinese sailors serving the guns were mowed down by hucdreds, aud out of a thousand men on board the Chinese vessels, eight huudred perished by the murderous continuous discharge of these terrible modern weapous of war. With these guns there is no cessation of shots—no stopping to load—and men unprotected by case mates or behind iron plating, are de- stroyed without power to retaliate. The fight of Tamsui was a horrid massacre. Thousands of Chinese perished, and hundreds of vessels of all kinds were de- stroyed by the terrible fire of the French. -_- __—<e2--- —Women sow have the privilege of voting in the Ontario municipal elec- tions. Of those on the list in Belleville, it is said, 41 per cent. cast their ballots as against 64 per cent. of the males. This fs certainly an excellent beginning rememberiog the vatural hesitation there would be in going to the polliug booth for the first time. It is even said that one women at Belleville tried to per- sovate another—an election trick which is said not to be unkvowa among men. Ouly qualified unmarried women or widows, we believe, have the privilege of voting and the extension of the fran- chise to these classes, as is proposed by Sir John Macdonald’s franchise bill, will not be objected to. It is perhaps only justice to spinsters and widows owning property that they should have a say io public matters; as for married women few of them would care to vote, aod if they did their votes would proba- bly be cast in the same direction as those of their husbands, and would therefore be to no particular purpose. — The Manitoba and Dominion Gov- eruments have arrived at an understand- ing. In lieu of the lands, Manitoba receives an annua! grant of one hundred thousand dollars as a final settlement of the land question. In addition, the Pro- vince is to be put in possession of the whole of the swamp lands within her borders instead of half. The revenue of the Province for the present year will be four hundred and fifty thousand dollars.

P., of New Glasgow, N.58., writes to the Nova Scotia Journal or Agriculture, urging the- formation of a Breeder’s Association for the Maritime Pro- vinces, the main object of which would be to promote the improvement of stock. Mr Bell claims that while a great deal has been done- towards improvement of stock in Nova’ Seotia by the aid of Government grants, even more has resulted from the efforts of private individuals. The Journal of Agriculture warmly seconds Mr. Bell’s suggestion. The ma'ter is at least worth considering and discussing. ‘The formation of such an association, and assuming it, to operate efficiently and prudently, might pave the way for the establishment of a | divorce froma her. weodel farm forthe Maritime Provinces.

The government is powerless to prevent this. It, however, prohibits otticers stillin the army and reserve from going. A man named Delhanty,who was occupy- ing afarm at Kilbeggan, in Weatmeath, Ireland, from which a tenant had been evicted, was shot dead on the night of the 14th inst. Constable Colburn, who was prominent in connection with the Castle Wellan riots, and who had resigned and was about to depart for America, bas been ar- rested under the crimes act. The University of Pennsylvania has started a ‘‘department of physical culture.’ Dr. J. W. White, who will preside over it, siates that his duties will be to examine each student, note wherein he needs physi- cal development, and recommend the proper mode of exercise to induce it. If his back is weak, the rowing machine or boat is advised ; if the chest is flat, parallel bars are in order. The ordinary trainer geuerally picks out for the boat a man who does not need it. The shipment of small fruits, embracing thirty varieties, sent by Mr. Saunders to the experimental gardens of the Japan Government at Azabu, Tokio, reached their destination in excellent order. Mr. Saun- ders, of London, Ont., has received a very interesting Jetter from the superintendent of the establishment with hearty thanks for the donation, accompanied by several packages containing an interesting collec- tion of the seeds of some of their finest flowers and trees. The scandals in connection with private insane asyluins, which have been shown up lateiy by Mrs. Weldon’s successful suit against Dr. Winslow, have !ed to a prospect of a sweeping reform by the -British Gov- ernment. Sir Wiham Vernon Harcourt, the Home Secretary, is now arranging a scheme for the gradual suppression of all the private madhouses and the subscitution of government asylums, in which patients able to pay for special attention and indul- gences can be as well treated as in the best of the private institutions. When the Canadian contingent of the Nile expedition enlisted it was for a term of six months. At the expiration they were to be returned to Canada at the ex- pense of the Imperial Government, Nearly five months have passed, and as it is be- lieved it will be five more months before the campaign ends, they will be in a posi- tion to dictate their own terms with the British Government in renewing the con- tract. They cannot be left on the desert, and will have to follow the expedition. They expect to reap a good harvest out of John Bull. They laid out a new town in Dakota last fall, and called it Golden City. A Chicago speculator who was out there took 500 lots a $5, and in 30 days the price of the city lots had gone to $25 each. Some one buiit and opened a saloon, and the figures jump- ed to $50. A second saloon went up and the city lots changed hands at $5 apiece. The Chicago man was advised to sell, but he concluded to hang on for a few more saloons. The snow came,and it was withdifti- culty the Chicago man's agent could get through the drift, to find the place deserted by human beings, but on a tree was a sign reading, ‘‘sell you the whole city for $10.’ The British barque James Stafford, 1,116 tons, commanded by Capt. Reynolds, ar- rived at San Francisco, Cal., on the after- noon of the 3rd inst., in 213 days from Yokvhama, making the fastest sailing pas- sage on record between Yokohama and San Francisco. She left that port on December 11, the day before the City of Peking, and ‘arrived at San Francisco on the same day. The barque came in ballast, and had fine weather and favorable winds the entire pas sage. Some years ago the barque Victor made the passage from Yokohama to Point Reyes in 21 days, but was three days get ting into the harbor. The J. 8. belongs to Annapolis, N. 5. The St. James’ Gazelte, speaking of a case in which the judge’s assumption of the black cap caused intense emotion in the convicted prisoner, asks : Is there any good reason fur a continuance of this unseemly practice / Surely the scene on these oc- casions is of itself quite impressive enough without the addition of «a black cap to its horrors. ‘The origin of the cap is shrouded in mystery. Its only appareat use is to in- crease suffering at a moment of intense mental agony. Asa relic of the dark ages, the judge’s black cap may have some claim to veneration; but the sooner it is consign- ed to’a museum the better. It is quite out of place nowadays in acourt of justice. The Earl of Aylesford, who died in Texas on the 14th inst., was born 21st February, 1849. He sncceeded his father as seventh Earl of Aylesford on January 10ch, 1871.
