Tho American board of foreign missions representing 1 the Congregational churoli, has scoured, the opinion oi liev, Henry Bloclg-ctt, D. of Pc-kin, who lias spent, forty years iu tho service of Lho board und thirty years in Pekin, and who is now in this country. Dr. llloilfjeu has responded to the request, of the "board as follows: "Ainonff the common people of China little is known the causes oi I cbo is represented, the war or the facts occurring in its I a long, flowing beard, but no costume pro-Toss, and the wildest and most ab- i cun be traced.

One of the bronzes shows the king Babylonia, who appears clean-shaven, in the dress of the high priest. The garment reaches down to the feet, and is crossed over the left shoulder, leaving the right arm, which is raised, bare. Tho statuette is a full length one, standing on its own double plinth, and is some-twelve inches high. This bronze comes from Abu Ilabbab, and dates about B.

2200. A second statuette represents a king in the attitude of adoration or contemplation, having his hands raised and clasped to- gether in a similar manner as the god The Uinpr wears surd rumors are afloat. In Japan everything is published, and their cities and are illuminated at every victory over the Chinese. In consequence, partly, of this, the most intense CEthusi- the war prevails, even the boys and girls in their schools practicing military drill. 'On to Pclcin'was the cry everywhere as ivc passed through the country.

The treaty powers desire peace and Will use their influence to secure it. China is ready for peace, even on humilitating terms. Japan may consent to give up the march, on Pekin and grant terms of peace such as can be accepted. Vet these terms may "be somewhat diflicult to find. They involve tiic interests oi European powers, as well as those ol China and Japan.

The great Siberian railway will bo finished in a few years. Will Russia be satisfied tohave Vladivo- stock, a port which is closed by ice four months each year, as the terminus ol this railway on tin; seaboard? Will she not wish for her transcontinental railway a port farther south which is; open all the year; that is to say, a port of Korea. But such a port would make Russia a leading power on the eastern borders of China and in the Pacific ocean. Will England consent to such arrangement? Will France and Gcr- consent? Will China and Japan consent? The only solution seems to be to give autonomy to the nation guaranteed by all the powers. As for For- Great and France would both oppose the cession of that island Japan.

It is a matter of course that ia heavy war indemnity should besought by Japan, and to this claim China will "be compelled to ag-veo. It is not improbable that close commercial and political relations will spring up between China and Japan. For the most part missionaries have remained in their places. In Pekin and elsewhere work is carried forward without obstruction. Thus far the missionaries of the seven stations of the American board in North China have continued at their and engaged in their usual labors-.

Without doubt rulers and people be greatly hu-' miliatcd. With the common people the matter will end here. They leave national interests to the government. The government, the literary classes, and the business men of China have been taught agrandobjcet lesson on the futility of their old methods and the necessity of adopting the neiv. In November the writer in passing through the city of Osaka was permitted to visit forty-nine wounded Chinese prisoners.

They were quartered in the largest temple in Osaka. They were furnished with a sufficient bedding and abundant food. The best medical and surgical aid -eras aCordcd them, tbe surgeon in charge having received his education in Berlin. They seemed cheerful and thoughtful. When vrc remember that early in the war a Chinese governor ofTered one hundred and fourteen dollars for the head of a i Japanese private and double that amount for the head of an officer, such treatment of Chinese prisoners by the Japa.ncse is the more remarkable.

Nor it greatly to be wondered at if in king, budea, JJ. 2. jOO. figure, which stands seven inches high, represents Camil-Sin, king of Babylonia, in the. character of a basket bearer, both arms being uplifted und supporting a basket borne on the head.

It is supposed that these statuettes may have been dedications to Kingir.su, the fire god, whose worship was a particular cult at The art of making bronze casts was known to the Babylonians from very early times, and many examples arc to bo seen in the British museum, as well as in the Louvre.

Two surprises because of the difl'cr- ence in value compared with ordinary public expectations arc hny a.ncl tobacco. The hay crop of the United States amounted last year to iu value; the tobacco crop, on the other hand, amounted to only $27,000,000. The last year preceding (1S03) the tobacco crop was 50 per cent, greater, and considerably more than half of it came from two states, Kentucky and Tennessee.

Kentucky Not Nearly So Na- nmroua Is oencrnlly Thought, In an interview the other day the commissioner of internal revenue said that practically every dollar of the tax on Kentucky whisky was collected, and with less expense than any other revenue due the federal government.

The commissioner is, of course, correct, but this has not been tiic popular opinion. The "moonshiner," says the Louisville Courier-Journal, has taken such a prominent part in the literature of the newspapers, magazines and his numbers have been as much magnified as those of that sorry- set of scoundrels who attacked the brave Sir John Falstaff on Gad's hill. Ambitious dialect writers and a horde of cheap humorists have added their contribution to the prevailing impression. Ambitious revenue officers, aided and abetted by zealous reporters they take into their confidence, break- out at irregular periods with stories of their prowess in raiding illicitdistillorlcs and. capturing bloodthirsty revenue outlaws.

Many arc hairbreadth escapes, and thrilling are the battles in which they have engaged. These stories of moonshiners acd moonshining are the response to a strong public demand, the appetite for the romantic being especially lively in connection with a state whose people are considered to have such marked personal characteristics as Kentuckians. Cut they must be taken with a large amount of salt. We certainly have very few moonshiners in Kentucky, and they are not numerous or bloodthirsty anywhere. Usually they are poor people who lack industry or pluck enough to succeed in farming or other vocations.

Such men will not fight if they can help it, and their operations arc generally on the smallest sort of a scale. Their numbers are equally insignificant, and out of all proportion to the space they take up the newspapers. CORN AND COTTON. Tiro Stap'ea In Which tho tnlted the Whole YForld.

They were sent out to the order of James Scarle, of Port Elizabeth, who intended locating them in the kops river, but owing to the unsatisfactory results of the experiment made by the government in that he changed his mind, and generously offered them to the agricultural department," says the Cape Xews; "Tbe beds where these exiled natives are to be deposited are situated a few Irjndred yards from tho mouth of the river. wpert.nospiHua, -or lire sometimes called, cially constructed, foe-, their reception, consisting ofwooderufratnes fitted with galvanized -wire, and so arranged as adequate protection from the ntUicks of a predatory enemy. consignment of oysters brought out bv the Eoslin Castle has not turned out so successfully as was at first anticipated. careful examination it was found that of the one thousand oysters imported by last vessel to the order of the government, only between three and four hundred had survived the climatic changes incidental to a long sea voyage, added to the novel conditions of life in a tank.
