"COMMUNICATE D.
Soochow China, Sept. 22, 1883.
Editor M essenger:
My brother J. A Park Jr., of La-
Fayette, Ga., has been kind enough
to forward to me some questiors
you wished answered iu regard to
Soochow and tho manners, customs,
ifcc. of the Chinese. lam glad you
have asked about Soochow, as I
have been thinking ever since I
came here, of giving you some ac
connt of my adopted city. I sup
pose I might say adopted, for it is
certainly my home at pre“ont, and
so far as I know will continue so
to be for soo.o years to come.
Soochow at the time of the birth
of our Savior, was already older
than any city now in the United
States. It was built during the
reign of a King named Woug, who
was born B. C. 613. It is bard to
realize in walking tbe streets of a
city like Cbuttanooga that there are
men now living, wbo remember
when it was nothing but an Indian
village ; but is harder still I thir k
in walziug tbe streets of Soochow.
to realize that you are walking the
same streets with the same Kind of
people that walKed these streets
over 2000 years ago. It makes me
feel right ancient sometimes. The
city is in the shape of an oblong
square, lying nearly north and
south, something over four miles
long by over two miles wide. It is
surrounded by one of the stronge-t
and best preserved walls in China
The wall is fifteen miles in circum
ference, 30 feet high and 16 feet
thicK with an embanxment on tbe
inside 20 feet thicK a' the base, and
wide moats filled with water on
both the inside and cutside. It is
built of fcricK with stone founda
tions. The embauKment besides
adding greatly to the strength of
the bricK wall, affords a place lor
soldiers to stand, to defend the city
in time of siege. They are protect
ed from the enemy outside, by a
parapet about seven feet high,loop
holed with long slot-liKe openings
for shooting with the bow and ar
row. We live on the cast side of
the city quite near the wall and I
sometimes go to it for a walK. It
is the only respectable place in the
city wheie a person can taKe a
wals.
The city has six gates, five of
which are double, one gate for pe
destrians and the other a water gate
for boats. They have no need for
a gate for wagons and teams, such
things, as 1 have already told you
beiDg unheard of in thst-e parts.
Boats 6uppiy their place and as the
city is intersected in every direc
tion by canals, the produce of tbe
surrounding country can be carried
to all parts with perfect ease. The
openings in the wall for tbe water
gates are formed by immense arch
es thrown across the canals and
supporting the wall above. The
gates in ordinary use are simply of
wood, bat they have drop gates in
tbe wall above made of iron to be
let down in time of war. All the
gatts are closed every night about
nme o’clo' , .K*and not opened until
next morning. However they do
say that a person by tbe use of a
silver Key (money) can get in and
out any time he wants to. The
noise and confusion at the water
gates is unlixo anything outside of
China. Each boat as it approach
es a gate has a man on the bow
with a long bamboo pole with
an iron spiKe in the end of it
in bis hand. As noon as he gets in
about fifty yards of tbe gate he be
gins to yell and flourish his pole.
He never thinks about stopping, no
■natter how many boats may be in
bis way, but fails riglt in among
them, punching the boats right
uud left with his bamboo pole and
yelling at the top of hie voice for
them to get out of liia way. The
other boaluisn return his compli
ments with interest, punching his
b ’at and cursing his grandmother

call think of. You always feel
when on one of their boats it they
would only punch each other in
stead of their boats it would be
more business like nod certainly
more satisfactory to you.
The streets of Soochow are very
narrow, the broadest not being
more than eight or ten feet wide.
Some of them are mare cracks; you
can stand in tho middle of the
street and touch the wall on each
ide with your bands. They all
all answer to the dt scription I
heard a Japanese give of a Cliintse
city this Summer —that it was very
smell. They are all rounded off,
high in the middle and low on the
sides and paved with small stones
of chipped granite. Ii is hard to
say when they are worse for walk
ing ; in wet or dry weather, for in
wet weather they are slippery from
water and in dry weather from
g ease. It is never best for two to
walk together (or then each has a
si ling road ; tbe only way to get
along comfortably is to take it sin
gle file. In the crowded part of the
city the streets are so full ot people
it is almoit impossible for you to
get a ong anyway. You hiye to
worm your way through the yell
ing c owd, slipping at nearly every
other step and dodging everything
from a sedan chair with a fine lady
lolling back in silks and satins
with her painted fate and lips and
tiny feet, clean down to the ragged
coolie with a bvmboo pole on his
shoulder and a bucket of unmen
tionable nuisance on each end of
it.
The population ol Soochow in
cluding the immediate suburbe is
about 250,000, being about five
times as great as that of Atlanta
and sixteen times that of Ohuttan
ooga. The foreign population con
sirs entirely of missionaries.
Tnree churches have represen
tatives here, the Northern Presby
terian, tli6 Southern Presbyterian,

Test of Love.
BY DORA KEYS.
‘Tliis is my daughter, Caroline.
Carrie, Mr. Sloan.’
Ilary Sloan bowed, and pratty,
winsome Carrie Ilorvey bowed in
return.
Harry had picked out tho farm
as a residing place during a busi-
Mss trip.
After Garris’s father had intro
duced the young people he went
to the burn, leaving the pair seated
upou the porch.
‘A pleasant spot, this,’said Har
ry, utter lie hud finished admir
ing vlie pretty, dimpled band*
which the girl had carelessly laid
upon the light blue serge dress.
‘Y’ou like it ?’ she asked.
‘Like does but half express iny
admiration. It seems as though I
should bo perfectly satisfied to lin
ger here forever,’ responded Har
ry-
‘But Burely, Mr. Sloane, the at
traction of city life must surpass
those of such a humdrum locality
as this.’
‘On the contrary, I prefer what
you call the humdrum locality.’
‘And why, may I ask?’
‘Because, because —well, I can
not fully explain my reaaon. Sup
pose it ii because I am heartily
sick of city ways.’
‘And so you came here for a
change?’
‘Yes, I belieyo that is the rea
son.’
The pair sat there upon the porch
talking upon one subject and the
other, until the evening shadows
fast deepened into darkness.
Finally Harry aiose and stid :
‘As I am somewhat tired with
my journey I will retire’
The girl called her father, and
the iatier raking a lamp led the
way to the front chamber on the
upper floor. Harry took up iris
traveling bag and. after a ‘good
night’ to Carrie, he followed the
old gentleman up the stairs, and
shortly afterwards was soundly
sleeping.
‘He is handfomeand so is Jack.
lie is gentlemanly and Jack is not
quite so easy- He talks and acts
like a real gentleman, and Jack
can hardly ever find the right
word to say when it iB needed.
Jack loyes me, and I—l wonder
do I really and truly love Jack?’
Thus Carrie mused after she had
disrobed herself for tho night, and
sat perched on a chair by tbe
window.
Strange, she had never question
ed tbe fact as to whether or not
she loved Jack. She had always
taken it for granted that she did
love the hpndeome, browned-face
farmer hoy, who had accompani
ed her home from singing in the
parish row on practicing nights in
the winter, and taken her to pic
nics and on excursions in summer.
Theirs had been an affection
without any question, any doubt
or mistrust tc mar the serenity of
its flow.
Two, three weeks pass rapidly,
and Hairy Sloane finds himself
musing over the possibility of his
being able to provide for a wife.
Carrie’s lovely face, her pretty fig
ure and her grace liaye been the
whole cause.of his perplexity. Be
fore he met her he never bad a
thought of ever marrying.
He had espied a fine young
farmer on several occasions talk
ing with Carrie at the gate, but
she told him that it was Jack, a
schoolmate, and a life long friend.
One evening Harry was seated
in tbe parlor talking with Carrie,
whe-n a trap halted at the door,
and Jack asked her to lake a ride.
Again, when Harry rtquisted her
to take a row on the lake, she said
she was very sorry, but she bad an
engavement vrith —Jack.
•‘Miss Hervey, that Jack seems to
take up all ofyourßpure time,’ ex
claimed Harry.
‘Excuse me, Mr. Sloane, not
quite all. I believe lam at your
service when not otherwise engag
ed,’ leturned she.
‘Humph l you 3re pretty much
j otherwise engaged most of the
time.’
And turnii gon his heei H *rry
would leave Carrie. Tins soon be-
came common, and finally Hurry
was determined to end all by ask
ing Carrie for her hand.
•Miss Hervey, will you walk with
me along the riverside this even
ing?' asked Hairy one evening af
ter ten.
‘I—I don’t know.’
‘Ofcourse; it's another engage
ment. No matter, I return to tbe
city in the morning,’ interrupted
Harry.
‘You are wrong,“Mr. Sloane ; I
I have no other engagement. To
prove it, 1 will go to the river with
you.’
She put on her pretty, wide
trimmed Gainsboiough and walk
ed by his side to the river.
'lt is pretty,’ she said, gazing out
upou the lake which reflected each
shining star and fleecy, flouting
cloud upon its mirror like surtace.
‘l’ritty ! ves, beyond all othors
I have ever looked upon.' Some
thing in his tones caused Carrie to
look up quickly, and she blusiie.i
as she found his eyes gazing
struiglit into hers. “Currie, I—l
love you.’
There, it was said. The die was
cast, and Harry's heart jumped up
into his threat.
‘Mr. Sloan —’
‘There now, Carrie, don’t Mr.
Sloan me. Can you call me Har
ry ?’
‘I might—that is, if I had known
you longer.’
‘You call that farmer, Jack.’
‘Oh, Jack and I were children to
gether. That makes a difference,
you iee,’
‘I suppose so. Rut, Carrie, tell
me, do you love me ?’ asked Har
ry trying to take her hand in his, a
iiberty she did not seem disposed
to permit.
‘l—l—let us go back now, Mr.—
Hairy,’ said Carrie..
‘I love you, Carrie. Will you
not give me just one small, ray of
hope ?’
T don’t know,’ responded she.
Harry seemed very much in ear
nest. Jack bad never, during ail
the years of their association, spo
ken of love. She. like other girls
in common: had a deal of admira
tion for a brave man. And Harry
Sloune seemed a valiant personage
to Carrie, since he had dared to
tell her that he loved her.
‘Who does know then?'asked
Harry.
‘I —cannot; please lots go back
home now,’ uttered Carrie.
‘Shall we row the boat, the little
boat down there, up to tbe stream
which flows by the houso?’ said
Hurry pointing to a small bout
near them.
‘lf you wish,’ said Carrie.
They got into the boat, and push
ing it out .rom tho shore, Hurry
plied the oars. A silence fell up
on them after the boat had gone a
short distance.
They reached the turn of the
water, where the small stream pour
ed its crystal waters into a lake.
Harry turned the boat around —
borror! the frail uflair struck
against a rock, and in another in-
Btaut they were both piecipiWttd
into the water. Harry as he went
over, managed to grasp hold of the
boat, and Carrie, as good luck
would have it, found herself seated
securely upon the Rock.
‘Miss Heiyey,’ said Harry, ‘we
are ia a nice predicament.’
'l’m wet through and through,’
cried Carrie.
Strange enough, the thorough
wetting seemed to take all ‘.he ro
mance out of tiuth. Here in tbe
water, up to their waist, Ilsrry
hanging ot, to the shattered boat
for dear life, and Carrie seated upon
tho rock, some ten or more yards
from aliore, alI—all 1 —all affairs connect
ed with love were utteily vague to
them.
“What shall we do?” said Carrie.
Harry did not reply. Swim he
could no', and he knew if lie onee
lost his hold he would go down,
down to the watery grave.
‘l I’m sorry we giarted. I —I —
Miss, Miss, Her —ll»rvey, we shall
both be at the bottom by morning,’
stuttered Harry.
‘Humph T I shouldn’t wonders
bit, poor Mr. Sloane?’
•Wb—what do you—you mean?”
•Why don’t you do someibing,
ill. ipGiuu? Swim to the shore for

another bout. Do any thing to get
me uffthis horrid rockl’
‘I—I can’t KWiin!’
•Jack can!'
Tm glad to—to hear it. I—J
wish Jack won hare.’
Carrie then nee mod to be pos
seam'd of an idea which she sud
denly put into effect, for raising
her voice to the Lighest pitch, she
cried, ‘Jackl Jack! Jack I’
‘Hallo!’ a voice in the distance
responded.
‘Quick, Jack. Out here in the
riyer where the stream flows in,’
cried Carrie, ns she espied Jack’s
form upon the shore.
And then Jack dashed into the
water and walked as quickly ns
possible to Carrie, took her in bis
urms, and walked back to shore.
‘Help! How am 1 to get ashore?'
yelled Harry,
‘You poor fool. Walk ashore I
The water is about waist deep.
You don't want me to carry you,
do you?" exclaimed Jack, as he
walked off toward tliehou-e, Carrie
very limp and dripping, walking
by his side.
Harry walked to shore. What a
fool he has been. If he had only
kuew the depth oflho water, per
haps he would not have lost Car
rie.
Anyhow, he returned to the city
in the morning, and I cun assure
you he never mentioned the liUle
ciroumatenoe.
Carrie and Jack were married
shortly afterwards. She said that
the sight of Henry in the water had
cleared away all doubt, and she
straightway knew that she did in
deed love Jack,
Chestnuts.
It is the time of the year when
people who have never been taught
any better go cliestuutirg.
Chestnuts do not grow wild out
West. Lsc the mighty West re
member that with a grateful heart
on Thanksgiving Day. On tiie
uoundless prairies the ehestnut on
ly grows iu the train.boy’s basket.
The chestnut is the home of the
rioting worm. No sell-respecting
worm will live in the ground if he
cun And a chestnut. He enters it
by a hole which cannot be perceiv
ed, and once iu the nut he riots in
solitude and abundance until
some incautious man reads the ri
ot act to him. A chestnut with
out a worm is as great a rarity as
a bee without a sting.
The chestnut burr ia a sweet
boon to the chestnut. It is uri
Oriental imitation of a cactus
cluster, and net a very bad im
itation, either. It lacks tbe native
penetration of the cactus, the sort
of‘oh whisper what them feelest’
sugge>tiveness that lurks in the
coy curess of tbe prickly pear; it
dues not work in so deep nut stay
in so long, nor rankle around like
the bitter memories of an nrr due
note, us tbe clinging cactus does,
but it isn't lie If so bad. The mail
who Kneels down jn a chestnut
burr, in the act of looKing for a
chestnut, is satisfied with the burr.
He says whut lie has to say in a
hurried tore of countenance, and
does not asK lor any more.
Where all the chestnuts conn
from, goodness only Knows. I don’t.
They don’t grow on tire trees. The
Prince went out one day with the
little ones ut the parsunage. He
esme home with half a pecK of
beautiful brown ch estnuts. I smil
ed ut the child's enthusiasm, and
said to his mother:
‘I will go out with him myself
and get a couple of bushels.’
1 did go out with him. I took
some things to bring the nuts home
in; to wit: a grain sack, a large dou
ble decker basket and a box; the
the aggregate capacity of these
vei-sels was two and one-half bush
els. Dr. McLain and Louie ac
oompanied ub with a somewhat lar
ger equipment. The proportion
of the chestnut burrs to chest
nuts is as the leaves of the al
ders to the trout in the brook. Just
about. You walk over acres of
bulls, you turn them over, you
look into them, you stumble and
fail on them. At last your heart
bounds with joy. You get all the
neediea on the burr into your two
ilium! s while you extract the
chestnuts, and then .Uc ever pres-
ent worm looks out and denoert*
ecs the barbarity oteviction.
I carried tire chestnuts htTiri'i
that night in my pocket, Tns
g am bag I lohlcd up and hid un
der my coat, 1 threw the box away
iilid the basket i tilled with hick
ory nuts. After it was full a na-»
live drove post aud looked at ure
kindly.
Tnere’s lots and bdsbels of shell
barks down on tbe other road
about u mile,’he said, with ape
urliar unphaeis on the shell barks.
‘Well, what’s these?’ I asked
with a sinking heart/
■Pig nuts,’ he replied,‘they’er no
good; nobody ever ga*hers them ’
1 lied, feetdy, saying fbat I Kept
i pig and had gathered these nuts
for f«ed, and the native looked in
credulous and drove on,-
‘What you omptin’ all dear nuts'
over de fence for?’ The Prince de
manded.
I told him there were motives 1
in the human heart that some
times shaped our actions, too deep
and intricate for him to oomprn
liend, and the doctor anu I
gathered up the children and tree
passed across u field to a forbidden
chestnut tree, escorted by a whole
herd of cattle and a Mr. Durham,
who pawed the ground in another
field and talk id bass at us through
the rails We made a great haul
at this tree. The venerable old
monarch of the forest was about 2
(XX) years old and iter bran ches had
spread over about twenty acres.
It was cloudy with burrs but w»
got seven nuts and teu worms, ,
1 know what the worms are for.
They are to keep tbo people from
eating the chestnuts. Wore it not
for worms many people would eat
ohesunits who cannot now be in
duced to taste them, and a great
amount of suffering would thereby
bo entailed upon the human race.
Wall the awful, tiresome, mad
dening things in the world to oat, a
chestnut is the lingerist, A man
may set in on a chestnut say abou
the 10th of October. He oan chew it
all that day, and from time to time
make desperate efforts to swallow
fine fragments of it. It will maku
him cough all night, and he can
resume the process ot mastication
early in the morning and keep It
up all the next day. It will last
him that week and Sunday liccau
not sing at church without blow,
ing dislocated chestnut all over the
pew in front of him. — Burlington
