THE FAITH OK ItUDDHISM.
An Interview witli the Iltnltlhist
Hi*lh I rii ■ft of t eyloll.
From the it-iilond Fxjre*.
Takiinr into consideration tbe lact that
over oue-tliiril of tbe whole huraau race
belong to tbe Buddhist religion, tbe fol
lowing account of an interview with
•which a French traveler in Ceylon, VI.
Roger de Bonmeres, bad recently bten fa
vored by tbe High i’riosl of that most
ancient religion, will doubtless be ol in
terest:
Ceylon, tbe loveliest of all the green
islands lu the Indian Ocean, tbe head
quarters o( Huddnism. just m the same
luauner as K.nne is that o( ' athoiieiem,
and the High I'riest, or Chiei Rouze. b >s
sesses the same spiritual prestige among
Buddhists as the Cope among thelulluw
ersof the Church of Koine
Tbe High Priest, whose name is Su
mangalu, resides in tuc village ol Mali
gaKaudo, not far tr.in tbe capital. lii
Imie but lorms part of the seminary lor
the education ol young priests.
We found tbe great man squattingdown
under some trees, surrouud.-d by a group
Of students, to Whom be was expounding
a dillicult text. As eoon as tbe lesson
was ended he arose and conducted us to
the veranda of bis but, the surroundings
ol which, consisting of hyacinth hushes,
almond and cocoanut trees, and other
rich tropical vegetation, appeared almost
poetical, lie was dressed in a kind of
yellow robe, something tike a Roman
toga, leaving the right aim and shoulder
bare. His copper-colored head was com
pletely shaven, and on Ips ieet ho wore
nothing but learner sandals. ills cold
black eyes, gentle, but yet peuoirutiug,
never raised or lowered, but always
looked straight ahead. His teeth and lips
bad a disagreeable appearance, owing to
tbe iaet ol the.r being stained blood red
by the betel nuts, a kind of narcotic
stimulant, whicn he was chewing all ihu
♦.line.
My conversation with him was some
what in the form of a catecolsm :
“What do you nieuu by the term Budd
hist?”
‘•A person who acknowledges himself
ks being a follower ol our Cord Buddha.”
as Budda a guff?”
“No.”
” Was he a man ?”
‘•Gulyas tar as hisoutward appearance
Was concerned: tor his inner uauire was
altogether superhuman, and as lar as
mind, heart, or intelligence were con
cerned, he soared lur above the rest of
mankind.”
“Was Buddha his real name ?”
“No. It is merely tbe one which indi
cates his spiritual existence. It means
•the must enlightened, and fountain of all
wisdom.’ Tne basis of Buddhism is tbo
assumption that human existence is, on
tbe whole, miserable and a curse, rather
than a blessing.”
“Did Buddha discover tbe cause of hu-
man misery ?”
“Yes, for toward tbe end of his life it
was revealed to him. Just as tbe ligut of
the rising sun dispels the dai kness of the
night, so was the spirit at length un
shackled oy the light of wisdom, and it
was giveu to him to discover the uriein ot
human misery, together wilu the means
of remedying it.”
“Did he experience much difficulty in
attaining tins state of knowledge ?’’
“Yes, lor he v. as obliged to dispense
with all those little faults, those favorite
sins and desires, which only veil the light
of truth.”
“W hat is this light you speak of Which
Is to do aw ay w ilu our ignorauce and to
rid us of our sins?”
“Tbe knowledge of the four sublime
verities mentioned by Buddha. The hist
of these is tne misery of our preseut ex
istence; Ihe secoud, the intense and yet
vaiu desire of attaining per leet. on;
third, the conquering of this desire;
fourth, the ineuns ol thus conquering,
namely, right faith, right practice, obe
dience, right memory, and ligut medita
tion.”
‘•But when you are In possession of
these four verities, what then ?”
“You have then attained Nirvana.
That is a slate ol Ihe luosi absolute rest,
tbe absence of every desire, illusion and
paia; in suort, the annihilation of every
thing wbico makes us humau tieiugw.
Before reaching Nirvana, one may be horn
again m the ftesb, but when it Is once at
tained no one longer feels any desire on
tne subject.”
Alter finishing this somewhat brief ex
planation, the old gentleman showed
Us round the whole seminary, commenc
ing wuh the library,.which was tilled with
documents written in the Cingalese and
But man languages. A large department
Was tie voted to European books, and on a
lacquer table 1 discovered most of the
works of Kenan, Strauss, Barth, and also
a magnificently bound Anglo-Cingaleso
dictionary, presented to the High l’rlest
in ISO by tuc Prince of Wales wheu he
came lo visit bnn.
Belore bringing our visit to a close we
visited a little BuiitiLiist temple iu a cor
ner of the immense gardens. Tile imago
of Buddha contained therein was of white
marble, and the eyes, artiticially colored,
hud a kind of lar-ofi', dreamy look about
them. The great sold nimbus around bis
head gave one somewhat the impression
ol being in a little Catholic church.
Trays of the most magnificent (lowers, de
prived. however, ol their steins and leaves,
lay before the image. On my drawing
attention thereto the High "i’riest re
marked :
“Buddtia does not require these flowers,
but his followers are so anxious to please
him that the custom of floral offering*
has gradually taken root.”
On taklug my leave I ventured to ask
him what were the greatest joys and sor
rows of his lite. Ihs eyes twinkled
merrily as he replied:”
“My greatest joy is due to the fact that
lam lorever neuetrat:ug more and more
into the wondrous love ol lluddha. while
juy sorrows are limited to occasional
troubles connected with my digestion.”
W hat struck tne most was the fact that
the Buddhist creed is the quintessence of
pessimism, tempered, however, with a
woudrous and touching sympathy for
the sorrows and troubles of mankind.
I’ll UKl'l V A Mi El', CATS.
One Hunts Squirrels,) knottier I’art
viflges, ami One is IB Years old.
F*'Q>ntK* X*to York-Sun,
Norwich. July 17. —Tne Connecticut
Cat is attending mainly to routine busi
ness lies vem, but here and there is one
that shows a trace of genius. Jlr. Amos
£. Cotib of this town has a remarkable
young rat. It ignores mice entirely. It
will have nothing but red squirrels. 11
goes out into the woods each morning and
catches one red squirrel. One squirrel
lasts for a whole day’s meals. The bind
quarters nerve lor braaklast, the lore
quarters tor dinner, ami the cat tapers oil
her appetite by picking the hide and Immi
for supper. It is hard work to catch a
red squirrel napping, and the ca l realizta
that one squirrel must go a long way.
She brings ull her catches to the house,
and the buck yard is strewn with red
squirrel skins turned wrong side out
Mr. Cobb has In his veranda a lot of wire
cages, all communicating with each other
and each provided with play wheels, and
In the canes are sixteen squirrels which
he has caught in traps. The cat Often
sits for an hour near the cages with tier
eyes closed and with a very benevolent
expression on her taoe, ami accidentally
she lets her paw tall inside the wire for
tfcaaqulrrela to play with. Fooling with
that sleepv-looking paw hue nearly cost
three squirrels their lives. She has not
gotone ol the wired squirrels yet, but she
has nope,ami spends an hour each day be
fore the cage.
Arthur Keller of Preston h ■ • n cat that
catches partridges, bhe gels about one a
week. When she cannot catch a part
' ridge, mice, birds, ground ui >|es, and
rats are good 'enough lor her. Now and
; then -he takes big fiyillg grasshoppers
, and flies off a window pane. It is worth
tbe price ola ticket to a dime museum,
Mr. I\ dler thinks, to see his eat chase a
living grasshopper. The grasshopper
starts off flushed w ith hope and with a
; satirical flutter ar.d buzz that mamlests
its opinion ol u thing on legs trying to
run down a t.iing that has both legs and
w ings. The grasshopper sails away in a
sidelong direction about a dozen rods and
plumps down in the grass with a wlrv
chirp that is meant to say to the cat that
tbe grasshopper can lake that little snip
not less than twenty.live or tbitty times
and not get tired, but rather enjoy it.
The cal. however, means business, and,
with tail erect and claws outspread, is at
tbo lir-t way station almost as soon a- tbe
grasshopper ha- alighted. The grass
hopper has to get up again and be off with
an alacrity that takes its breath away,
and before it has taken naif a dozen
flights it is a very surprised a id serious
looking grasshopper, that blindly dasnes
in a zigzag way before the pursuing cat.
At the end of the sixth or seventh tuning
the cat generally nails her prey to the
ground in the stubble. A fat flying
grasshopper makes a dainty luuch lor a
cat. *
Rhode Island cats are noted for long
evity. In other Slates cuts that are not
chewed up by other cats die of old age be
fore they are ten years old. They stay
out too iate at night on fences and shed
roots at the expense o' their emotional
natures, and their vitality is early ex
hausted. Rhode Island cats are lees
frivolous. They keep their beads cool and
do not overwork themselves at night.
Henry Cliff of Ivy llill, in that State,
owns a cai that is 18 years old. and her
'acuities are all perfect. Age has etched
her whiskers’ends and the fringe ol fur
along her Hides with peculiar designs in
pink, hence Mr. Cliff' culls her“l’inkev.”
In other respects she Is in a normal feline
condition. Mr. Cliff takes excellent care
of this cat. and he does not require that
she shall earn her own living. Shelives
on ihe lat ol his larder and lakes only one
stroll around the house daliv for exercise
Mie scorns mice and all other cheap,
course food. A mouse might run between
her feet and she would not lake the trouble
to step on him. All she has to do is to sit
on the veranda, close her eyes, and look
wise. Mr. Cliff hopes to keep her alive
until she is 20 years old. It is believed
that I’mkey is the oldest cut in Rhode
Island.
CRUELTY AT sEA.
A Captain Under \rrcst for Terri
bly Maltreatinig His Crew.
From the .Vein 1' rl" Sun.
New Bkpkokd, July 20. —A terrible
story of cruelty, murder and mutiny on
board the hark l’etrel, of this port, comes
from Auckland, where the Captain and ot ti
ers are under arrest. Oil tl.eir arrival at
Uushells, Bay of Islands, the authorities
were requested by ( apt. it ed. of the Pe
trel, to search for four deserters. The
men were found and taken belore a local
magistrate. They sunt that they were on
their way to Auckland to uiakecomplaint
lo the A in-rican Consul of the outrage on
board tiie bark. They sai 1 that one ot the
crew had been killed and another latally
injured by fearful maltreatment.
officers went on board the ship to
search (or corroborative evidence, and
fouud it in abundance. The man said to
have been fatally injured was not on
| noard, but the officers were informed that
when the mate saw them coming he had
! lowered the wounded man into a boat and
j ordered a crew to carry him asnoie. The
| police followed, and fouud the victim
Hing on the bench. He was terribly cut
: and bruised, entirely paralyzed, and had
! a broken leg. All the crew testified
against the Captain and two of his mates.
The man alleged to have been murdered
whs William J. Britton, the ship’s cooper.
The story ol tha crew is that fro-n the
outset of the voyage they did not get su l
licient food, and thut the cruelties of tlie
officers’began in a day or two alter leav
ing this port. Tbier chief spite seemed 10
be against the cooper. Ho was repeatedly
beaten and kicked by the Captain and
mate. One of the mates sometimes
amused himself by pulling out a handful
ol the man’s whiskers. On more than one
occasion Britton was stripped by older
of the mate, and other members ol the
crew were compelled to take off his skin
by rubbing him with bricks and sand.
One of tho poor fellow’s legs
was swollen till it was fully
eighteen inches In diameter. When
he finally died there was scarcely a sound
spot on his body. All the sailors testi
fied that they were frequently kicked ami
beaten by the Captain and other officers.
One man was pulled about the deck with
a rope around his neck. A sailor named
Lake testified that he was forced into the
rigging when too sick to stand. Other
sailors helped him. but he was unable to
keep Ills position and fell to the deck. He
has been paralyzed ever since.
The Captain is now injail at Auckland
on a chargeof murder awaiting removal
to this country. IDs defense is a gen
eral denial ami a charge that some ol ttie
men conspired with the third mate to
mutiny, and that he was forced to resort
to harsh measures in dealing with the
men,
A OKA I) CONSUL'S BODY.
How the Appropriation for Itemnv
ing It was Made Before Ho Died.
From thr Worhrijt .1 Pont,
The body ol the late E. H. Rogers, Con
sul at Vera Cruz, will shortly be clis
patched from that placo to bis Irlends m
Nebraska. Cutler the laws of Mexico
live years must elapse before the body of
a person dving of a contagious disease
can be disinterred. Mr. Rogers died on
Aug. 1, IKSI, so that there are yet seven
days before ms tv main a can be dug up
anil shipped to this country.
In connection with this case it is ro
ealled that tho expenses of bringing .Mr.
Rogers’ cot pse home were appropriated
lor by Congress, not only before no was
dead, but before lie left this country to go
to his post of duty. Previous to lc-M
there had been no appropriations pro
vided wherewith to pay (or the trans
portation of the bodies ot consuls dying
abroad to their homes in this country. A
resolution was then Introduced in tbs
Senate appropriating money lo pav for
the bringing home of the body of a Consul
who bad died In Veracruz several tears
before. Objection wu* mude, the objector
stating that it might be necessary also to
appropriate money for the return of his
successor. Mr. Rogers, alt hough appoint
ed Consul nt Vera Cruz, was still tn this
country, hut before leaving he had the
•cheerful consolation of knowing that a
grateful people had made arrangements to
have his corpse returned freo of expense
to his family.
Mr. Rogers was at the time of leaving
in delicuts health, and, as yellow lever
was tuen rampant at Vera Cruz, the
State Department officials urged him not
to go. lie replied that he wanted to gi t
to a warm climate, lie was hull a day on
board his ship in the Vera Cruz harbor !
before landing, and he was taken sick.
He was removed ashore to u house con
nected with the consulate, but, although
within thirty teet of hi* scene ot duty, he
never entered his office. He rapidly got
worse, and b lore many days w.rs borne
to his giave, a victim to yell ov lever.
Once upon a midnight dreary,
1 was tossing wca and weary,
For 1 lihO a 111 of sgu ■,
An t my bones were very sore.
Suddenly I read a label.
Of a medic due on mv table.
Hut to reaoli't I *careo was able;
I was so infrtnot sore!
Took I Juai "no dose, 'turns bile beans;
Soundly slent I and did snore.
