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. POLITICAL ANNOUNCEMENTS. To the Voters of Spalding County.
