SHAKEN BY FBAB. The Young 1 Emperor of China in Fear of Assassination. From the Fete York Herald. Shanghai, April 6. —The young Em peror Kvacg Hsu, and the dowager Em press, Yxe An, are much annoyed at the notice which foreigners in China are taking of their domestic bickerings. A Chinese newspaper would not dare to hint at such matters, but many Chinamen cat read English and find much entertainment in the foreign newspapers at present. The foreign press was officially assured that the emperor and his mother were the best of friends, but this assurance carried little weight. For tho present the empress has little authority, and the railway boards, her old enemies, have come to the front. In theemperor,how ever, is vested the only valid power in tho state. He is supposed to wield despotic power, tut is really a “strong man in chains.’’ The reactionary party guides him at present, but many people think that he will soon shake off all control. One of the emperor’s leading advisers is Ving, a head eunuch and a creature of Ung Yung Ho. Ving hates the empress dow ager and has done his best to make the emperor hato her. To him and Ung, a dog matic old tutor, rather than to the emperor, are to be ascribed the recent vigorous decrees from the throne and the edicts in the Pekin Gazette against the empress dowager. Viceroy Chang Chih-tung has fallen into disfavor owing to his pr posal to revolu tionize the empire by means of railways. He has been censured for financial irregu larities extending over eight or nine years, and has l>een ordered to explain matters at Pekin. The empress dowager is also blamed for permitting him to control a satrapy for so many years. Chang maintains that the only reason why he did not prepare an itemized account of his expenditures was because lie did not wish to put temptation in the way of the minor revenue clerks. LI HUNG CHANG’S POLICY. "Divide et Impera” is the policy of the Chinese cabinet. In this way viceroys and foreign envoys are played off against each other. It is High Hung Chang to-day against Chang Chih-tuug, and to-morrow it is the viceroy of Wanking against the viceroy of Chiu. To this policy is due the very existence of the present dynasty. A dozen recent decrees announce the necessity of increasing the naval and mili tary forces of the empire. Li Hung Chang’s army and navy are very efficient and make him an object of envy to tho other satraps. His forces will have to resist any invasion from the north by the Russians, who aro as much dreaded in China as iu certain parts of Europe. The boards of war and the ad miralty are doing their best to get their forces ready, and have just sent an order to Germany for 300,000 rifles, which are to be distributed among the Manchu troops. Military instructors are also to bo engaged to teach the coolie troops. These instructors will be Germans, and within the last year or so the English words of command have been superseded by those of the fatherland. China favors Germany simply because she fears France and Russia. THE YOUNG EMPEROR’S FEARS. The emperor is in constant dread of assas sination. Poison, he fears, lurks in every cup, and every hand, ho imagines, is armed with a dagger. Every article of food is tasted by ac< mrtier before be touches it. It was rumored a few weeks ago ttiat the em peror was dead, and much excitement pre vailed. Tho foreign consuls mado inquiries, but got no information. After a week, however, the decrees from the throne began to reappear, and tho vermilion mark on them showed that the emperor was alive. There was, nevertheless, some ground for the rumor. A cup of white rose tea, pro vided for the emperor, was tasted by a favorite courtier, the son of a Manchu mili tary officer, aud a few hours afterward the boy died in dreadful agony and with all the symptoms of poisoning. The emperor’s terror was increased a hundredfold by this incident, and he fell sick probably from sheer fright. For decency’s sake a formal truce has been patched up between the emperor and the dowager, and it is announced that he will visit her in her palace as often as possible. This palace stands on the site of the old French cathedral, which was pulled down about three years ago. Tho recent death in England of J. G. Dunne was much regretted here. It was ho who negotiated tho treaty between the Popes of Pekin and Rome with suoh con summate diplomacy. An Irishman by birth, he was educated for the priesthood. Missing his vocation he became a distin guished orientalist and diplomatist. Money is sorely needed here, and the im perial treasury is trying to raise a loan for household expenses. It raised a similar loan last year, and has Dot yet repaid it. The household officers decline to give proper security, and for that reason the mandarin millionaires have no faith in the paternal government. The remittances from the provincial treasuries to Pekin have recently been small, and, though China has at pres ent no national debt, it is likely that she win soon come forward as a large borrower. A large sum of money is spent annually on defeases and in the payment of salaries to the high officials of Corea, Thibet and Mon golia. Corea causes at present much uneasiness in Pekin. Knowing that China’s suzerainty over this so-called tributary kingdom has hitherto been merely nominal, the Pekin government is now trying hard to muke it real. Russia is the bugbear, and it was re cently proposed to build a wall across tho northern part of the peninsular, which cut off the country from Russian territory, and destroy tho hopes of the pro-Russian aud anti-Chinese party. This proposition, however, found little favor a3 it was soon seen that tho Muscovite soldiers with their parks of artillery would not And the bar rier so insurmountable as the Mongols found the Great wall twenty odd centuries ago. Some of the emperor’s advisers are in favor of coming to an understanding with Corea, as they know that they cannot hold that country as soon as the Trans-Siberian railway is completed. They would willingly hand over to Russia a portion of Corea north of Port Laseroff as an outlet for the railway, if a satisfactory assurance were given that there would be no further en croachment. Such a plan would, of course, be strongly opposed by the more patriotic Chinese officials. royalty well hedged in. The recent celebration of the emperor’s accession to the throne caused some trouble in the capital, the repre sentatives’ persistent requests for private audiences. The foreign ministers have ad dressed a joint noto to the Tsung-ii Yamen, which acts as a buffer between the respon sible government and any outside pressure, urging that they be allowed to present their congratulations in person to the emperor. This is the most perplexing pro blem that crops up in Pekin, and the diffi culty of giving a plausible excuse on eaoh occasion taxes the resources of the Ce lestial diplomats. The courtiers aim to keep his majesty under the delusion that he is the suzeraintyjof the entire earth and that the ministers from Europe and America, beiDg merely envoys from tributary king doms, are unworthy of being admitted to h:s sacred presence. I shrewdly suspect that the emperor does not believe this non sense, and if he does, he is less sensible than the other 400,000,000 of his subjects. That the ministers’ request will be denied is, I think, almost certain, because, though the emperor is very anxious to have a talk with them, his conservative advisers will prevent him from granting them an audi ence. If the foreign ministers would only lay ssido jealousies they might accomplish something, but they are divided mto half a dozen cliques aud are thus inca pable of accomplishing anything. The im perial government quietly ignores them; their own compatriots, who are engaged in commerce at the treaty ports, receive hardly a “y assistance from them, and the native officials snub them in many ways. They must conduct all their negotiations througa the Isuug-li Yamen, whose duty it is to s.e that the serenity of the imperial courts is never disturbed by foreign diplomats and foreign contract huntrs. GANDER AND RAT. Summary Revenge for the Death of a Gosling?. From a Letter i New York Sun. A goose on the Ringie farm hatched out a fine family of goslings last week. She and her mate, an imported gander, have been assiduous in their attentions to the downy little yellow things, but in spite of that a big Norway rat, hordes of whose kind infest the outbuildings on the farm, was smart enough to elude the watchful eyes of the goose and gander, and a day or so ago cap tured one of tho goslings and dragged it to his lair under the barn. A few feet from the barn is a low horse trough, which is kept constantly full of water. There is a hole three inches in circumference under the foundation of the barn waich'is a run away for rats, and it was into this that the rat dragged the gosling. The two old geese indulged in noisy lam entations for some time over the loss of th ir little one, and then an idea seemed to strike the gandor. He and his mate held a sort of confab in subdued tones, and then they both became quiet. The gander wad dled up to the rat-hole under the foundation of the barn and took a position at one side f it. He stood there motionless and patient, with his eye fixed on the hole. He had stood ten minutes or more when the head of a rat was poked out as far as the shoulders. Quick as a flash the gander hurled his head against tho rat’s and his strong bill closed over its neck. The rat squealed and struggled, but he couldn’t get away. The mother goose set up a vocifer ous and triumphant squawking, and the gander waddled as fast as he could to the horse-trough. He shoved the rat under the water and held him there until he was drowned. Then the gander throw the carcass on tho ground and the two old geese picked and tore it until it was scattered iu hits about the barnyard. Whether the rat was the one that kidnaped the gosling is of courso not known, but the geese were satisfied with their vengenoe, and after tearing the dead rat to pieces joyfully conducted tneir family of goslings to the duck pond and gave them their first exercise in swimming. MRS. CLEVELAND’S MAIL. Her Popularity Suffers No Diminu tion. From the New York Sun Mrs. Cleveland’s mail has not suffered any diminution since Bhe left the white house. How dear she is to the women and tha school girls of America is best expressed in the notes and cards that continue to come from the north, south and west filled with “sor row that she could not have remained,” and "hopes, prayers aud good wishes for her return the next time.” The sincerity and genuineness of these expressions of admira tion is fouud iu the addresses and full names of the fair writers. The begging letters are simply countless, and the audacity of the scribblers indescribable. Her interest is in vited to unpaid policies, expiring leases, foreclosed mortgages and overdue rent, to sick children, unemployed men and women, ambitious aud impoverished students, art ists and specialists, and asylums, homes, churches, schools and societies of every creed, character and need. Autographs, jewels, personal property, books, plate, china, wearing apparel and decorative art works are offered for pur chase or disposal, and Inventors aud design ers of every imaginable artiole for toilet, household aud mechanical use appeal to her for influence or financial assistance. The autograph hunters are legion, and then there are those contemptible busy ladies who huut up disagreeable paragraphs and send them to her pasted on the back of postal cards. Mrs. Cleveland is too sensible to allow these intrusive letters to annoy her and too wise to pay any attention to the frivolous ones. It is, however, worthy of note that reduced to currency tho postage of these aimless letters would amply pay for the lady’s gloves, shoes and slippers. NEW YORK PROMOTERS. A Class of Mon Who Make Money by Their Acquaintances. From the Brooklyn Eaale. Wine agents, insurance brokers and the gentlemen who are known as “promoters,” make capital out of their friends. There exists what seems to be an altogether exag gerated notion of the value of a personal acquaintance in New York. A fixed valua tion, however, is placed upon it. Any man who is known about town, or whose ac quaintance i3 so wide that restaurant waiters and bartenders know him by name, is usually looked upon by business men as having a certain market rating as a pro moter. Exactly how much promoters aro worth is an open question. Hut there is no doubt; that a good share of the ornamental figirres about town obtain their income solely through influencing their friends. The wine agent probably suffers the most. To be obliged to recommend a certain brand of champagne on all occasions, simply because the agents of tho house pay a salary for such recommendations, would take away the flavor of the wine from most men’s palates, but many of the sons of distinguished New Yorkers have overcome impecunious difficulties by the aid of the champagne agents. There are now at least half a dozen well-known names on the list, and every one of these men drink champagne for a purpose and that purpose is never good fellowship nor purefgenerosity. AN INVENTOR'S FOLLY. Ha Misses the Chance of Making a Small Fortune. From Engineering. A few months ago an inventor of certain apparatus of a very simple character, which could have been readily duplicated iu many different forms, was offered $6,000 for the right to a certain inland town. He was a poor man and needed the money badly. The reader supposes, of course, that the inven tor jumped at the chance and pocketed ths money on the spet. Not he; he told the buyer that the patent was worth SIOO,OOO, and he was not going to sell one town la New York state for SO,OOO. The same In ventor was offered a similar sum for another large town in the state, or SIO,COO for only two cities in the country, but he refused to take it. We have these facts from tne in ventor nimself, and they are correct. Be fore it was too late to nego:iato we berated the man soundly for his folly, but he was deaf to all argument. The sequel was that the inventor never sold a single right, and has his patent to this day. Bargains.
