/ imterbstingcowcekmiimsthb CHINESE. In an arliole reoontly' contributed to the FortnighUy Review, by Sir John Bow- ring, appear some traits of Chinese char acter. Sir John’s travels and residence in China made him acquainted with the habite and foibles of this people, and his descriptions are given in a very inter esting and attractive narrative. It is not uncommon in China, when a orimiual is sentenced t> death for his of fenses, to obtain a substitute, who, for a reasonable compensation, say five or ui hundred dollars, will act as tho prisoner's proxy in undergoing the death penalty. The authorities readily permit the sun- stitution, because by thoir laws, so jus tice is vindicated in the person of some body. it is a matter of supreme indiffer ence whether ho is the offender or not: “On one uocasion six Englishmen were brutally murdered at a small village on tho Pearl River. The English govern ment insisted on tho punishment of the murderers, nnd six men wero publicly boheadod. It was very certain they had nothing to do with the crime, and the Chinese knew it, but Doing unable to catch tho true murderers, tlioy thought tho English would bo equally os well satisfied, ns they would have been under similar circumstances, with tho lives of six other men. Soma Chinese troops once fired upon the British settlement of .Shanghai. No injury was done, but the net was of a character which might have led to seri ous eonseqacnces. A complaint was made to the great mandarin. On enter ing his tent the Englishmen found six Chinese soldivrs kneeling by Ins side. Close at hand was an cxeoutioner. and the huge, heavy swords wero visible, which h« usually used in his work. “It was iiuito light to complain,” said the mandarin: “it was quite fit those who had committed the outrage should be visited by the punishment. Inquiries have been made and it was quito likely the men present wero guilty; at nil events they wero in tho neighborhood. Utter the words und their bends shall full lit yourfoet.” Both tho mandarin and tho terrified soldiers were much astonished, the lutter equally so, when the English asked tho release of the men, because inwilling that the innocent should suffer vicariously for the guilty. Tho manda rin dismissed the soldiers, merely telling them that they owed their lives to the clemency of tho “outside Imrburimui/’ When the French embassy was going up to Peilio, an outrage was cOfnmlttad on a Frenclimnu by u Chinaman, who was arrested mid condemned to death.— A deputation waited on the ambassador, bringing with them an old man, whom they wished lo bo hanged instead of the one who hud committed the offense. They said it would ninke no difl'erence to the ambassadors whether the old imuiortho young one was executed. Tho Jeutli of either would show that punishment would follow injuries of that kind, done to tho French. They were told that European usages required that the criminal should Buffer for the crime. The next day they eaino to offer u “better bargain' 1 to tho nniliassiidor, and brought two men to of fer in expiation of tlm offense of one. They have manufactures of false nosos in Cliiuti, hut nuiio of false teeth. A man darin who was anxious to learn something about the making of tooth, produced to Sii John Boivring a box full of artificial ■loses, of various sizes and colors, with whioh ho supplied tho defeots of his own. Ho said he used one sort of a nose before und ufter his meals, mid insisted that the Chineso ingenuity was greater than that of tlio English. It used to be helievod in Clnua that no pure metal was produced outside of the Culustiul Empire, nnd that the coins brought from afar would in process of time, bo converted by natural moans, in to base metal, or snmotliing worse. A person was charged with Btouling lus master’s money: lie did not deny haring tho custody of tho dollars, but swore they had been eaten by whiteants. Ko- shan, a Chineso sage, was directed by the Emperor to give his opinion as to tho quality of tho silver brought to Cliiua by foreigners, und those are his words: “’1 he foreigu nioitoy brought l>y these other nations is all boiled mid reduced by quicksilver. If you wrap it up and lay it asido for several years without touching it, it will he turned into moths aud corrmiing inseots, and the siivor cups mudo from it by those barbarians will chungo into feathers." Probably Keshan hail read in our scriptures that “moth und rust do oor- rupt," und of tho “riches" whioh “umdo lo themselves wings und fly away." John W. lilcKoo, a rivor correspond ent of tho Cincinnati Commercial, is re- sponsnblo for tho following Cairo “joke i" "A rebel Lieutcuuut, Thomas F. G., a stoauiboatman, was captured near Ed- dyville, tho beginning of tho war, and owing to some hitch in tho exchange of prisoners. Tom was kept a prisoner on parole, at Cairo, about eight mouths, ro- Dorting himself regularly at the Provost Marshal’s office ovory niorniub at uino o'clock. After several months his means began to run low, und the Provost Mar shal, who Imd taken a liking to Tom, ex erted himself to prooure a situation iu which Tom could earn enough to keep himself from being compelled to eat pris on rations. The situation was found on one of the wharf-boats at Cairo, os freight clerk. It has always been the oustom to oliargo tweuty-tivo cents for allowing “ingle horses to cross on tho wharf-bouts at Cairo; and ope night a Federal officer crossed over with a horse, aud on being notified of the rule by Tom, handed out a fifty cent piece. Torn did not have the change, and told the officer to wait a min ute while he oould go to the {office for it. The horse becoming restive, the officer would not wait for so small a sum, and passed on in a few seconds after Tom’s disappearance, and oould uot afterward be found. The next morning as Tool was on his way to report himself at (lie Provost Marshal's office, ho met the ow ner of the horse, nnd stopping him, han ded him the quarter change. The oyes of the Federal officer dilated, aud after giving vent to a low whistle of astouish- went, he exoluiiued, "well, well, is it pus- «bi# there is one honest man in Cairo ?" You will nerooive that the point of the joke whioh pinched Cairo the hardest was that the “one honest man” in the oity was a rebel prisoner."’ The spirit of Prince Albert was called Up tt ft reoeut stance tu Loudon* tud tho circle, with admirable forethought, paid It u ddliOfttu complimout, bjr tuxigiog & Christinas hjmn of his royal hiuhnev oompositioo.
