prov ed to be one of the enemy She waa standing to cut off our retreat and in a abort time two more appeared stealing directly for us The firstone then steamed in and commenced firing upon us and as soon as the other two came up they did the same We returned the fire with nine shots striking one of their boats in the bow Then Captain Hart of the Twentieth Indiana Regiment suggested a surrender saying It is no use fighting against such odds and requested us to hoist the white flag Tho mate of the boat and the few soldiers then turned to and threw over baard some 30 cases of ammunition when Capt Hart forbtd them throwing any more overboard Captain Hart than suggested that the chain be slipped and the boat run ashore'The white flag was then hoisted and the qrew left in their boats We endeavored to get boats to carry off the sol diers of the enny but could not do so To the best of my opinion they had plenty of time from our arrival to that of the enemy to have got everything on

address He said that even in this country many people thought It an easy mat ter and all right that the minister and his family should exemplify piety in their conversation and actions but that it fa quite a different thing for a man immersed in business to spend his time at prayer meetings aad aot according to the principles of religion This fa precisely the argument of the heathen in foreign nations A Christian minister comes among them and they are contented to believe that hfa religion will do for him but that after all their own fa much bet ter for them People of foreign nations are prone to think themselves the best of all on earth and that other nations barbarians Thia Is especially true of the Chinese but when the Chi naman comes to this country he soon fays aside wooden shoes and fantastic dress and adapts him self to English customs and if he is converted and educated he fa oat the man to become a missionary among his own countrymen Califor nia contains a large population of Chinese and in view of toe above facts is one cf toe most im 1 portant fields for missionary labor The importance of children ns missionaries to convert men at home was urged they have a naturalness a directness of appeal that older persons do not possess It fa not the muscular man that can manage the terrible beasts but the Bible says A little child shall lead It is net the Doctors of Divinity cr the dignita ries of tbe church that most easily persuade men into the heavenly way but the simplicity end earnestness of children discourage them by telling them they can do nothing in
