■ SOME CHINESE GODS.
B Names, Qualities, Character
■ 'is tics and Forms of Worship.
I From the Few YOric Star.
■c ver y one Has some general ideas con-
Hruog the Chinese religion, but perhaps
K are even slightly acquainted with its
e -s or the details of the worship.
Bp vf- are two features of the Chinese re
■ ,“„ w hich distinguish it from the faith
Bmost other heathen nations. These are

Bt Chinese priests; no Nautch girl as in
■ iiian temples, or courtesans as in Corinne,
■nTiietit in their sacred dwellings, nor does
■hsir mvthology beam with disgusting re
■" ns of the amours of their deities. On
Ihs contrary, like the Romanists, they
■sod and deify chastity and seclusion as a
■vans or bn; ging 'be soul and body nearer
R tre highest excellence.
V are tnree forms of religion among
Re Chinese of this country—the Lao-Tse,
Re Chung-Tse or Confucian, and the Fo.
Rao-Tse was the great reformer of tbo
■r-jr.ese primitive reiigion, which was in a
Rreat degree a worship of nature. He was
Re meditative son of a poor peasant, the
■hlsis cf his new teachings being that man
■mmt subdue and control his passions if he
■wishes to obtain spiritual and physical hap-
Ciness. Every faculty and sentiment was
Riven as good, the manner of arranging
Riem being to piaee on one side all those
Itnat personify the virtuous, proper and
Eieasaut, with their corresponding antago
nists opposite them. The priests practice an
■epicurean philosophy, and the professors of
■this creed are chiefly the rich and the
■higher classes of society.
■ The purpose of Confucius was to estab
lish the primitive religion, his object being
■not so much 10 teach anew belief as the
I inculcation of moral principles, and to in-
I(luce his countrymen to lead a moral life.
■ His philosophy embraced three grades of
lsacrificeß--the great, medium and inferior.
The objects to w hich the great sacrifices are
offered are oily four, viz. : Tien, the heavens
or sky; ti, the earth; tai miai, or the great
temple of ancestors wherein the tablets of
deceased mouarchs of this dynasty are
placed; and lastly the shie tsih, or gods of
the land and grain.
The medium sacrifices are offered to nine
objects: The sun, or “great light”; the
moon, or “night light”; the names of em
perors and kings of former dynasties, the
ancient patrons of agriculture and silk,
Confucius himself, and the gods of heaven,
earth, and ti e cyclic year. The mythology
which Confucius taught was that the sun,
dav, warmth, and the higher heavens, or
perfect principle, were of the masculine
gender, and the imperfect principle, com
prising the moon, earth, night and cold,
were of the feminine gender. He attached
no idea of personality to the deity, but
ordered adoration paid to powers that
represented that celestial ruler.
The Chung-Tse, or as it is better known
in America as Confucianism, is the religion
of the more learned classes.
The most popular religion, and that which
we see practiced in Mott street, and in fact
in San Francisco, is that of Fo, or Bud
dhism. Some of the doctrines of Con
fucius have been incorporated into it, but
the salient features are those of Samaism,
which have degraded it into a common
idolatry. Many, if not most, of the idols
fo be seen in the various temples or joss
houses here, which are usually devoted to
the service of the patron deity of someone
particular company, are little more than
adaptations of Indian deities or the persons
cf remote ancestors invested with the char
acteristics of gods.
Of nil the saints in the Chinese calendar
Confucius is the chief, and with him are
reckoned the early kings Yao and Shun with
King Wau and his two sons, King Wu and
Duke Chau.
The highest divinity is Nguk Kuong Si
ting Ya. He is particularly prayed to in
times of business troubles or financial de
pression, and is referred to as the producer
and governor of all things terrestrial and
celestial. The common people believe him
to be the supreme ruler of all, who is to ex
amine into the merits or demerits of mor
tals, and reward or punish them according
to their deserts. The custom most in vogue
of approaching his august presence is by
nine genuflections and three knockings.
Tai Sang, or the deity controlling life
and death, is the object of special adora
tion by the inhabitants of Chinese Tartary.
He is fhe reputed grandson of Nguk Huong,
Sioog Ta, and reigns over the lower regions.
He is regarded as the deity who has cnargo
of the portals of the hereafter, and it is
that he might more easily and effectually
draw his followers into his terrestrial abode
that the common queues are so much worn
hv Chinamen.
In the Chinese joss house on Mott street
is a figure labeled “Hieng Tieng Siong Ta,”
who Is regarded by the almond-eyed Celes
tials as the supreme ruler of the heavens.
He is also known as the “Water Ruler,”
and is often prayed to to prevent conflagra
tions, as wind and rain are believed to be
his special dispensations. Joss sticks are
burned in his honor, and during the winter
solstice, which is a great day of Chinese
worship, he is ornamented with a silk cloak,
cap and boots. When these garments are
about to be taken off, all worshippers
present express their adoration of the idol
by spitting in its face nine consecutive
times. The dress is then removed, and
tore-' joss sticks are placed at tue foot of
the “Water Ruler” until the coming of the
next winter solstice.
There is but one of the numerous Chinese
gods before whose presence no red candles
or joss sticks are burned, and that is Huo
“hig. or the god of fire. He is much rever
enced and feared, because he is looked upon
as the ruler of the sou. hern regions, and no
People are more enslaved bv fear of tha un
known than the Chinese. Tiio v have their
c.airvoyauts, fortune tellers and astrologists
in Mott street and elsewhere, reaping
golden harvests from the vast crowds
of Mongolians who flock to ther dens,
anxious to get a glance into the
inisty future. Strange as it may seem, the
Chinese have a day set apart for the special
honor of Kuang Ing Huk, or the goddess
of fecundity, on whose birthday her wor
shipers eat only vegetables. She is a vega
<*iian, and Is represented as half man and
half woman. Her image in the Mott street
loss house is made of coarse clay, upon
'vhich is inscribed on white paper in large
Chinese hieroglyphics her name. Married
iueu w hose wives and mothers are in China,
or those who have married in this country,
are her spocial worshipers.
Ma Chu, or the goddess of sailors, is repre
sented in the figure of a female seated on a
carrel and reposing herself on a velvet
cushion under a canopy of state. On either
side of her stands two assistants, “Favor
acie Wind Ear” and “Thousand Mile Eye,”
each of whom is represented as half man
and half lion. Ma Chu’s temples are as
numerous in Mott street as her titles, and
6t *® ls extensively worshiped by those
''hose business takes them into deep waters.
V henever a Chmama . is about to sail for
the flowery kingdom lie spends three con
secutive days invoking the aid of Ma Chu
lor a speedy and safe conduct, and carries
''ltn him the ashes of the joss sticks which
e burns in her honor as a safeguard from
ship w reek or o; her marine disasters.
he form of adoration commonly paid in
■\ eW York to Sing Chiu Na, or the goddess
i midwifery, consists in offering her any
and every kind of fl.si meat except that of
uucks. She is represented in the form of a
•emale clad in silk robes, surmounted by a
g men crown and seated on a tiger. As
comparatively few of the Chinamen of New
rent are married, Siug Chin Na occupies
he most obscure place ain.ng the deities of
the Mott street joss house.
, * ~ ®°*t conspicuous idol in the Chinese
e V 5 Sang Huong, or the god of for
une, who is worshiped by a very large
Proportion of the common people—
especially the laiindrymen and tradespeo
ple. He is be.ieved to make men courage
ous aud daring, as well as successful iu
their undertakings.
Not the least interesting and showy god
among Uie Mott stre -t collection is Tu
Thieng King, or the god of gambling, who
is represented as a tiger standing on his
hind paws and holding between the for
must ones a large globe ornamented with
four suspicious looking Chinese characters.
Since he is the benefactor of gambling and
lottery men, it is not to be wondered at
that he is sometimes made the occasion of
very expensive and showy celebrations.
Perhaps from this deity we gain the ex
pression, “bucking the tiger.”
W ong Tien Kung, who is worshiped for
protection in times of evil, and for success
in business and study, is a very hideous
gentieman, having the feet of a bear, the
mouth of a lion and three eyas, one being
iocated in the middle of the forehead, which
is partially concealed by long whiskers.
To Kek Sai is the god of swine, and a
very important factor in Chinese economy.
He is represented as a deaf man, dressed ia
common clothing, and bolding a staff in his
hand. Restaurant keepers ad merchants
worship him regularly, and he or his car
touche is to be found in nearly every eating
house in China own.
Ngn Hieng Keeag, the god of thieves, isj
according to Tom See, the ex-deputy sheriff
of Mott street, a special favorite, not only
among thieves and professional stealers,
but also among those who wish to become
wealthy. He is the son of Kne Sing, a god
of literature, who is spoken of as the giver
of ability to write prosa and poetry, and
was a thief himself. A miniature image
of him is carried by all the gamb
lers and thieves of Chinatown. F was
present on one occasion in young Captain
McCulloch’s station house when a number
of Chinamen were arrested in a gambling
and opium joint. While the ringleader of
the party was being searched an image of
Mr. Ngn Kung fell to the floor. All at
once there was general commotion among
the Chinamen, and it was only when an in
terpreter, who was called in to explain the
cause of the general uneasiness which pre
vailed, told the captain of the nature and
value of the relic that tie consented to re
store the much-coveted idol to its owner.
These are but a tew of the many Chinese
gods into whoso characteristics and claims
to divinity want of space prohibits me from
entering.
The priests of the highest classes of Chi
nese are educated, but those of the lower
classes are very ignorant. The idea most
Chinamen hive of heaven seems to be
pantheistic, and in worshiping heaven and
earth and terrestrial gods they mean to
include and propitiate all superior powers.
The worship of Confucius, however, can
no more be called the religion of the Chi
nese thau the teachings of Socrates could be
termed the faith of the Greeks.
MINISTERS AND MONEY.
Salaries and Opportunities of New
York Clergymen.
From the Epoch.
A few facts and figures will give an idea
of the opportunities that Now York holds
out to brainy men who have chosen the
ministry as a profession.
The wealthiest single church organiza
tion on this side of the Atlantic is the
Trinity corporation of the Protestant Epis
copal church. It embraces old Trinity, at
the head of Wall street, and eight parish
chapels—St. Paul’s, St. John’s, Trinity
chapel, St. Augustine’s, St. Cornelius’, Zion
chuicb, Zion chapel, and Trinity church,
Morrisania. To support these churches there
are ample funds. The income of the corpo
ration is between $750,000 and SSOO,OOO a
year. Yet this a mount does not adequately
represent the corporation’s capital. A
large portion of its lauds were leased long
ago, when property was net as valuable as
at present. The leases were to run ninety
nine years. When they expire the income
of the Ti iuity corporation will lie double
what it is now.
Dr. Morgan Dix is the rector of old
Trinity, and exercises a general supervision
over the parish chapels. His salary is sls, ■
000 per annum. The assistant rector of the
same church receives $6,000, while the as
sistants who have charge of the chapels re
ceive $4,000 a jyear each, excepting Dr.
Swope of the Trinity cuapel, who gets
SB,OOO.
These are pretty high salaries, but the
Episcopalians of New York are renowned
for genero-itv toward their pastors. The
last rector of St. Thomas’s was paid $lB,-
000. Dr. Brown, who fills the pulpit at
present, gets $15,000. Dr. Huntington of
Urace church, which Vice-President Mor
ton attends when living in the city, has,
perhaps, the most desirable parish of nil.
HU salary is $15,000, and he occupies a
beautiful parsonage, rent free, next to his
church, which is architecturally one of the
handsomest residences in the city, and is
certainly worth an extra $5,000 a year to
the pastor. Another church that pays $19,-
000 to its rector is St. Bartholomew’s. Dr.
Greer is the fortunate clergyman. He pos
sesses private means, and returns his entire
salary to his churc i.
Dr. Rainsford of St. George’s receives
SIO,OOO a year. He also is possessed of a
private fortune, and, like the rector of
St. Bartholomew’s, turns bis salary over to
his church. There are at least a dozen other
Episcopal parishes in the metropolis which
pay their rectors salaries ranging from
$4,000 to SB,OOO per annum. The Bishop of
the diocese of New York is paid $15,000.
In the Methodist Espiscopal churches
large salaries are not fhe general rule, but
the ambitious minister can aspire to be
come one of the agents of the Book concern
established here or the secretary of one of
the many branche-|jf church work, or, for
that matter, a bishop. The bishop of Now
York receives $5,000. AH the other bishops
receive $4,500 annually, excepting the
bishops ot Africa and India, wuo are paid
$4,000 and $3,500 respectively. The agants
of the Book concern get $5,000. The same
sum is given to the various secretaries. The
pastor of St. Paul’s on Fourth avenue, the
largest Methodist in the city, gets $5,000
and a large parsonage comfortably fur
nished to live in rent free. All the Methodist
churches furnish their pastors with resi
dences. The Madison avenue church also
pays its pastor $5,000.
The Presbyterian pulpit in New York is
filled by some of the ablest preachers in
America. Dr. John Hall of the Fifth
Avenue church draws a salary of $30,000.
Dr. Paxton is said to receive SIO,OOO, Dr.
Parkhurst SB,OOO, and Dr. C. C. Thompson
SB,OOO, while T. De Witt Talmage of the
Brooklyn Tabernacle, whose influence is as
great in New York as it is in Brooklyn, is
paid $13,000. Apart from what they re
ceive from their parishioners. Dr. John
Hall makes a handsome sum each year by
writing for the Mew York Ledger , and Dr.
Talmage is paid a salary for editing Frank
Leslie's Sunday Magazine.
The Rev. Robert Collyer of the P rk
Avenue Unitarian church receives SIO,OOO.
Dr. William M. Taylor of the Broadway
Tabernacle, a Congregational organization,
is supposed to have a like salary.
But, putting all monetary considerations
aside, the reputation a clergyman of talent
is certain to achieve in New York and the
opportunities for doing efficient work for
the cause of religion and humanity are so
many that most clergymen regard it as a
very desirable field of activity.
11l Winds
That blow “naebody any good” are pit nty on
the storm-vexed Atlantic, to say nothing of the
occasionally typhoon-swept Pacific. The hap
less voyager, when shaken up by the heavings
of the “briny,” should take that pleasantest
and most salutary of doses, a wine-glassful of
Kostotter’s Stomach Bitters, the finest stom
achic and tonic that ever warmed, regulated
and quieted the human interior. Railroad
jolted and steamship shaken travelers will ex
ercise a wise provision by supplying themselves
with a sufficiency of this incomparab.e medi
cine for the journey. So will mariners, emi
grants to the west and others about to “seek
fresh fields and pastures new. ” Malaria, the
scourge of newly cleared and mining districts,
is completely conquered and surely averted by
the Bitters. Liver, bowel and kidney complaint
and incipient rheumatism it annihilates.
