The “Slicing Proceis" In China.
Owing to the absence of wagon roads
and railways the Chinese depend upon the
rivers, canals and the ocean along the
coast for nearly all their carrying. Any
Interruption to the immense traiRo and
travel of these waterways would prove
very serious. It i3 from this condition
of affairs that piracy is considered one of
tho most heinous offenses. For this
crime death by the slicing process is the
penalty. The slicing mode of execution
rivals any of the fiendish tortures prao*
ticed upon captives by our North Ameri¬
can savages, Thcro two degrees even tn
this devilishness. There are deaths by
8, 10, 20, CO, 100, 1,000 slices. The con¬
demned person is fastened to a cross, and
then the executioner commences at the
eyebrows and cuts away such portions of
the body as will not produce sudden
death by shock or Weeding till there la
little more tissue to hack at, when he
opens the chest and tears out the heart
I was told by an Irish gentleman in
tho Chinese Imperial customs that he
once witnessed the slicing execution of a
noted pirate, and he described it as hor¬
rible beyond imagination. Another gen¬
tleman had been present when a poor
woman had been sliced to death because
her husband had died suddenly, and she
had been tortured Into a confession of
having poisoned him. At other times
she had stoutly denied any knowledge of
the cause of his death. Ik^jrever, she
had beea condemned to this horrible
death, and she met her fate with a resig¬
nation and bravery which astonished
those who saw it Tho American who
was present described it as a most horri¬
ble Bight, and one that returned to him
In fearful dreams.—San Francisco Chron¬
icle.
The Journalist and the 1‘ubllnhrr.
One thlnj, I fear, must always place
journalism at a disadvantage, compared
with other professions, such as law, art,
medicine, teaching and engineering. By
the very nature of the caift. the writers
for the daily press cafe have little inde¬
pendent action. ;0peakiug roughly, and
speaking of the press as wo find it now
in New York, and the other large cities
of the United States, the publisher is
everything; the writer is nothing. The
most gifted and the most enlightened
journalist der, must in of necessity write to or.
and, very many order instances, is the
man who gives the the person
whom an enlightened and patriotic spirit
would be least willingly obey. This appears
to unavoidable. The man who has
created, bought or inherited a news¬
paper must either control or lose it. It
la his; he is the roaster; no power on
earth can nullify his right, and yet be
may be a person singularly unfit tc
wield such an organ.
The newspaper is often a mere ap¬
pendage to other enterprises, which the
owner deems far more important, and to
which the journal bears the combined
relation of cow and cow bell, feeder and
advertiser. But the newspaper belongs
to him; and all who write for it are, and
must be, his obedient servants.—James
Parton in The Writer.
