(How Do We Dig Our Graves ? We must eat or we cannot live. This we all know. But do we all •know that we die by eating? It is said we dig our graves with our jteeth. How foolish this sounds, t Y’et it is fearfully true. We are ter- Sifted at the approach of the cholera nd yellow fever, yet there is a dis ease constantly at our doors and in four houses far more dangerous and ■destructive. Most people have in their o'.mjsp stomachs a poison, more ,rtlow, but quite as fatal as the germs of those maladies which sweep men [into eternity by thousands without ■warning in the times of great epi demics. But it is a mercy that, if ;we are watchful, we can tell when we are threatened. The following are among the symptoms, yet they do not always necessarily appear in the same order, nor are they always the same in different cases. There is a dull and sleepy feeling; a bad taste in the mouth, especially in the morning; the appetite is change able, sometimes poor and again it seems as though the patient could not eat enough, and occasionally no appetite at all; dullness and slug gishncssof the mind; no ambition to study or work; more or less head ache and heaviness in the head; dizziness on rising to the feet or moving suddenly; furred and coat ed tongue; a sense of a load on the stomach that nothing removes; hot and dry skin at times; yellow tinge an the eyes; scanty and high-colored urine; sour taste in the mouth, fre quently attended by palpitation of the heart; impaired vision, with spots that seem to be swimming in the air before the eyes; a cough with a greenish.colored expecto ration; poor nights’ rest; a sticky slime about the teeth and gums; hands and feet cold and clammy; irritable temper and bowels bound up and costive. This disease has .puzzled the physicians and still puz zles them. It is the commonest of ailments and yet the most compli cated and mysterious. Sometimes it is treated as consumption, some times as liver complaint, and then again as malaria and even heart dis ease. But its real nature is that of constipation and dyspepsia. It arises in the digestive organs and soon affects all the others through the corrupted and poisoned blood. Often the whole body—including the nervous system —is literally starved, even when there is no emaciation to tell the sad story. Experience has shown that there is but one remedy that can certainly cure this disease in all its, stages, namely, Shaker Extract of Roots or Mother Seigel’s Curative Syrup. It never fails, but, nevertheless,no time should be lost in trying other so called remedies, for they will do no good. Get this great vegetable preparation (discovered by a vener able nurse whose name is a house hold word in Germany) and be sure to get the genuine article. GIVEN UP BY SEVEN DOCTORS. Shaker Extract of Roots or Sei gel’s Syrup has raised me to good health after seven doctors had given jsne up to die with consumption. So writes R. F. Grace, Kirkmanville, fTodd county, Ky. HE HEARD OF IT JUST IN TIME. k “I had been about given up to die with dyspepsia when I first saw the advertisement of Shaker Extract cf Roots or Seigel’s Syrup. After using four bottles I was able to at tend to my business as well as ever. I know of several cases of chills and fever that have been cured by it.” So writes Mr. Thos.

Evans, of the firm •of Evans & Bro., Merchants, Horn town, Accomack Co., Va„ writes that he had been sick with digestive disorders for many years and had tried;many physicians and medicines without benefit. He began to use Shaker Extract of Roots or Seigel’s Syrup about the ist of Jan. 1887, and was so much better in three weeks that he considered himself practically a well man. He adds: “I have at this time one bottle on hand, and if I could not get any more I would not take a ten dollar bill for it.” All druggists, or address A. J.

The Wind Blowing Sixty Miles an Hour. great damage done to shipping. Milwaukee, October 24.—The gale that prevailed Saturday night on the lake is re ported to have been the severest of the season by vessel masters. It continued last night with Hurries of snow. The wind blew forty five miles an hour all day yesterday, and a large fleet was in the harbor for shelter. At 4 o'clock this morning the schooner Maine, of Chicago, was wrecked here and is a total loss. She struck one hundred and fifty feet oil shore and for half an hour the six men comprising her crew clung desperately to .the rigging, while the seas broke clear over them. The life saving crew rescued them in a nearly ex hausted condition. The wind blew from north east tonorth forty miles an hour all day, while a blinding snowstorm raged, making" the gale doubly dangerous for vessels. The captain and crew of the schooner George Sherman have reached the city and report the Sherman a total wreck on Shot Point, about ten miles from Marquette. The Alva Bradley struck at about the same place a little before and Mr. Gifford thinks her crew also escaped. The Sherman’s crew took to a boat, and while going ashore the mainmast fell across the boat, without injuring any one; all were saved. They struck the beach at 3:30 p. m. and kept wandering around in woods until G o'clock in blinding snow, almost dead from exhaustion, dragging the woman cook on a litter. When they reached the railroad track they flagged an ore train bound for Marquette. It is be lieved the crew of the Bradley are now roam ing around in the woods in the terrible storm, and the city marshal, with a gang of fifteen men, has gone to find them if possible. The Lawrence is also probably lost, as she passed Sault yesterday for Portage entry. Buffalo, N. Y., October 24. —A great gale swept over this city this morning, the wind at taining a maximum velocity of sixty-six miles per hour. One house was blown down. Shade trees, signs and windows suffered terribly. No serious damage is renorted from the lake. Forest Fires Fanned by the Hurricane—A Sawmill Burned. Chicago, October 25.—A Wellsville, Ohio, special says: The hurricane which blew all of yesterday has subsided, and to this may bo at tributed the saving of the town of "Empire from complete destruction by a terrible forest fire. The fire is now under control. All valuable properl y in the place was saved, owing to the work of the citizens day and night. The railroad company sent a largo force of men on a special train to the scene, and they rendered heroic service. The drouth in this section continues. The woods at Industry have been burning for two days. Yesterday fire broke out in Sarly’s woods at Salineville and burned several acres of valuable timber. The loss is unknown. Sr. Louis, October 25.—The sawmill, shingle mill and planing mill of Mr. C. C. Loomis, situated about three miles north of Little Rock, Ark., on the Iron Mountain railroad, at Loomis station, was consumed by fire last night. The cause was fire in the woods, and so fierce were the flames and so rapid their ad vance that Loomis and his men were com pelled to seek safety in flight. So parched and dry were the woods around the mill that the flames rau through the tops of trees, de vouring everything in their way. About 8150,000 worth of fine lumber was destroyed, with all buildings about them. Loomis puts his loss at 80,000 to 8”,000, upon which there was no insurance. Before Sailing for Europe Mr. Gould Tells His Flans. New York, October 29—Jay Gould and party sailed for Europe to-day. The party consisted of Jay Gould, Mrs. Gould, Miss Nel lie Gould, aged sixteen, Annie Gould, aged eight, a young son, aged six, and Captain Shackford. Wlfen Mr. Gould had gotten things some what in order on shipboard ho left Ids friends, and made himself the center of a group of re porters, wiio were waiting for him. “Now,” said he, “what can Ido for you? What do you want mo to say? Don’t talk business, though, fori am thinking of nothing but pleasure; that is what I am bent upon at present, and expect to attend to for the next three or four months.” Without waiting to be questioned, he con tinued : “We are going to Gibraltar, where rap yacth is to meet us. Then we will cruise around the Mediterranean for two months. No business, only pleasure. George is capable, and I rely upon him, aided by the advice of ray friends. I wish you would deny the statement that my physician goes with mo. I am not sick—only m need of rest. I expect to bo home in the early spring.” Latrobe, Democrat Elected—Democratic Ma jority in the Council. Baltimore, Md., October 26.—Considering the exciting campaign preceding it, today’s election for mayor passed off with unusual quietness. There were a few disturbances of small importance and one fatal shooting affray in which Edward Allers, an independent dem ocrat, shot and killed Edward Dailey, one of the regulars. Aller’s friends claim that the shooting was accidental, but he was placed un der arrest and will be charged witli murder. The vote polled aggregated 65,075, of which Latrobe, democrat, got 34,640 and Bartlett, republican, 30,435, giving Latrobe a majority of 4,250, a democratic gain of near 2,000 since the elec tion for mayor two years ago. The newly elected city council will consist of twelve democrats "and eight republicans in the first branch and seven democrats and three republi cans in the second branch. The result of the election was a great suprise to the republicans, who counted largely upon the reformers aid and were confident of victory. Already cries of fraud are heard and renewed efforts will bo made to carry the state at the gubernational election two weeks hence. To be Gobbled up by the Standard Oil Com pany. New York, October 26. [Special.]— There is considerate stir in cotton oil trust certificates, and sensatiend rumors afloat concerning the company. It is said on good authority, Ithat J. 11. Flagler will immediately be made president, other parties iu the close sympathy with the Standard Oil company, will be put in the directory. It Is further intimated that a deal has been formally inaugurated, looking to a total ab sorptioniof the Cotton Oil Trust by the Standard Oil company. These reports, whether true or not, have had the effect of making cotton oil very active for the last two days, and the I rice has advanced from 27 to a fraction above ;.0. The Alberta Destroyed at Indian Bay—One Life Lost. Memphis, October 27. —Alberta, No. 3, a small steamer, running as a regular Mem phis and river packet, burned today, at Indian Bay, Ark, near the mouth of AV'liito river. She was enroute to Memphis, and her cargo consisted of 572 bales of cotton and a large lot of cotton seed, which together with books and papers were totally destroyed. Captain Gibbs, her first clerk, is the only person reported lost. He wasabout sixty years of age, and has been engaged in steamboating out of this city for many years. Chinese Vessels Sunk. San Francisco, October2B.—The steamship Gal lic, arrived this inorning from Shanghai and Hong Kong and brings advices to the effect that on September 15th, the Chinese transport Way Lee was lost in the Pescadores and 280 Chinese and five Europeans were drowned.

At afum ral near Sy camore today the team attached to the hearse ran away, and the vehicle was reduced almost to kindlmg w<kml. The coffin was dashed to the ground, the lid torn off and the corp.-e rolled into a ditch by the roadside. Other teams took flight, and a general pu».c ensued. M omen fainted, men jumped from carriages, wagons were overturned, horses became en tangled in the general wreck, and several per sons were more or less seriously injured. Rev. Mr. Howells, who was to have conducted the funeral exercises, was perhaps fatally injured. Terrific Boiler Explosion. Ironton, Ohio, October 24.—At eight o’clock this morning, a battery of six steam boilers in Lawrence Iron works exploded, kill iug Thomas and Mike Dwyer, and two others, and wounding twenty persons. Portions of boilers were blown half a mile away. Stubborn Mormon Jurors. Salt Lake City, Utah, October 24.—A ve nire of seventeen jurors for civil cases called iu third district court today, were all Mormons. Twelve of the number refused to take the oath required of jurors by the Tucker Ed munds law. L. S. Hill, member of the late constitutional convention was one of the mem bers who refused. Staying Death Losses. St. Louis, Mo., October 25.—John S. Stevens, attorney of the Toledo, Peoria and Warsaw railway, says the company has. up to date,settled with relatioves or legal representa tives of forty of the people who wore killed at Chattsworth. and with sixty of those who were injured. The highest amount paid out on a death loss was 82,000. A Coal Famine. Springfield, 111., October 25.—0 n account of the scarcity of coal, caused by the strike of the coal miners in thus district, the public schools were today compelled to close. The price of anthracite coal has advanced SI per ton, and 100 per cent ad vance in bituminous coal is predicted. A few days of cold weather will cause a shortage of fuel among private consumers. IMPRISONED IN A TANK. Paterson, October 27.—A very remarkable accident occurred at the Grant Locomotive works in this city about 5 o’clock this evening. Archibald McFadden, aged forty, crawled into a water tank which formed a part of the ten der of a new locomotive, in order to remedy a slight defect before the locomotive was sent out of the shop. Ho entered through the holo on top through which the tank is filled with water, taking with him, besides his tools, an oil lamp and a piece of carpet to put uuder his knees when he knelt on the hard iron. The interior of the tank is braced with rods run ning in all directions, and it is like making one’s way through the meshes of a series of nets to move about in it. McFadden entered the tank about 5 o’clock. A few moments afterward the other men heard smothered cries and groans issuing from the hole, and a little later a cloud of smoke came out. The man had upset his lamp, set fire to his clothing and the piece of carpet, and was unable to make his way out. Ono after another men entered the hole, but each immediately camo out again choking and half smothered with the smoko and gases given off by the oily flames inside. The shrieks of Mc- Fadden for help made them redouble their efforts, but in vain. A stream of water was poured in to put out the fire, until it was found neccssaYy to stop lest the water should drown the imprisoned workman. Then a stream of air was pumped in to keep him from suffocat es- The affair caused the most intense excite ment. Hundreds of men gathered around the tank making all sorts of suggestions, and again and again venturesome men volunteered to go in, but no one got his body out of sight before he backed out. W. W. Evans, the manager of the company, offered 8100 reward for the man who would rescue McFadden, but it was of no avail. It was a physical impossibility to penetrate far into the tank. “Then,” said Mr. Evans, “tear out the top of the tank.” A hundred hammers avd cold chisels wore at once at work, and the rivet heads flew in all directions. In fifteen minutes the stout boiler iron was torn away enough to allow the unfor tunate man to be rescued. Ho was nearly dead when he was taken out, for he had been'in the tank nearly an hour and a half, having gone in about five o’clock and had been taken out about half-past six o’clock. He was frightful ly burned about the logs and lower part of the body, and it is feared that ho cannot recover. Ho was at once removed to the Sisters’ hoc- , pital, where he now lies in a very critical con dition. Ho had managed to put out the fire with the water that had been poured in and the air forced in had saved his life; but he is suffering from the shock. Asthma. A young man taken down with asthma was very much frightened, and went to the best physician in the place andstatedhissyinptoms, and in great suspense awaited the response. After several questions the answer was: “Long life and ill health. Your disease is asthma.” The first clause of physician’s answer comforted the young man, who feared death was near. But the second clause, given after waiting a little while, depressed his spirits to nearly as low a point as he had reached when he entered the doctor’s office. This con sultation was held before the discovery of our Compound Oxygen. By its use multitudes of sufferers from asthma have been cured. A monograph giving reports of cases of asthma, and our brocure, “Compound Oxygen.—lts Mode of Action and Results,” of two hundred pages, can be had free on application either in person or at our office.

HE IGNORES GOVERNOR FORAKER Cincinnati, 0., October 28.—[Special.]— j General John B. Gordon, governor of Georgia, accompanied by bis wife, arrived in the city at 8:15 this inorning, over the Cincinnati South ern railroad, and was met at the depot by ex- Mayor William Means and Major J. I’. Donald son. The distinguished visitor and his wife were driven to the Grand hotel, where they registered simply as “J. B, Gordon and wife, Ga.” Governor Gordon comes here to begin a se ries of campaign speeches|in this state,in bohal of the democracy. He announces his inten tion of defending the south against the attacks of Governor Foraker, and the latter has thrown down the gauntlet by dubbing him a kukluxer, and laying at his feet an array of damaging charges. The general and his wife, upon their arrival, retired at once, having been traveling all night. Their trip north was a pleasantone, and without any unusual incident. HOW THE DAY WAS SPENT. The guests spent a quiet day, enjoying the sights of the city under the escort of ex-Mayor Means. There were many callers at the hotel, and for a time the visitors wore so numerous that the governor’s parlors partook of the as pect of a public reception. Many of the most prominent citizens of Cincinnati called during the afternoon, and went away well pleased wit!i Georgia’s spirited governor. In the after noon the governor was escorted to the High land house, where a crowd, which filled tho large corridors to suffocation, was in waiting to receive him. General William H. Morgan, of Mt. Vernon, 0., shared the honors of the even ing with him. GOVERNOR GORDON SPORE for fully two hours, and delighted his audience, which numbered fully four thousand people. Governor Gordon’s reception amounted to an ovation, and a more enthusiastic audience never listened to an orator. Governor Gordon en tirely ignored Governor Foraker, and devoted the most of his speech to the relative positions of the north and south, and the flag question. Vindicating the claim of ex-rebels to loy alty, he said: In the great city of Augusta, on an occasion when we had met to do honor to our dead com rades about their graves, to cover them |with La grant flowers, 1 said this, pointing to the banner of my country which hung overhead: “Here hangs above us the flag of tnw union. Let us honor it as an emblem of freedom, of equality and of unity, remembering there is not a star oil its blue flcld which is not made brighter by the light reflected from southern skies; not a white line on its folds but is made whiter and purer by that south’s in corruptible record in office; not one of its crimson stripes that is not deeper and richer from southern blood shed in its defense in every war with foreign power.’ I am not here to talk new doctrines; I want to say to you again that before the guns had ceased their terrific roar at Apmmattox, 1 began this style of talk, and in the south. In the senate, in Boston, in Charleston, across the Atlantic—everywhere, I have been appealing for peace and unity and concord as the surest legacy for our children to inherit. | Ap plause.] Let me mention another charge that has been used with one effect, I presume, in this state, sought to be fixed upon the northern mind to win votes against the south—let us see how much there is in it. The charge is that we op: ress the colored people, and 1 have some tremendous things to say about that. Will you hear me? [Cries of “Yes.’j These people were in slavery. How they got there, it is not necessary for me to say tonight. His tory will tell you about that. We found it in our midst. It came to us as an institution- We love those negroes. Ho you believe that? Let me give you the facts about it. We love them, and why? They were part of our household. Negro boys on my father’s planta tion were playmates of my youth. The only fights that I can recall that I had in my youth were battles fur insults, as I conceived them to be, to my negro playmates around me. {Applause.J On my own place to lay, out in the country, there is not one while soul, not one. My fiirniture, my lands, my all, is in their hands to-day, and has boon ever since I have boon governor, and while I was in the senate, in the hands of the colored people, who are there, cmj’ old servitors. Among then is old “mama’’ (portion the expression) as we cull her, now nearing ninty years of age. Hpon her bosom slept, seventy years ago the mother of my wife ; later, my wi'e, herself; later, still, every one of my children; later, still, my grandchildren—four generations—the memories of ajl hovering around that dear old foun. Why. sir, it you could have seen the gr evlngof the wife of my bosom to that decreiad old black as Oman when she was called to her bedside a few weeks ago-when old “mama” was lying ill, the strong est man among you would have been moved to tears. They have in their possession—th so black poonle -all I have in the world and I feci as abso lutely secure at this moment as though I were down there watching their every act. llow comes that? bid we oppress them when they were slaves? it was a law as inexorable ns the law of the Medes and Persians, that the man who treated his slaves un kindly was debarred from decent society. (Ap plause.]- Is that so? Well, lotus come to proof. We wont to war some years ago and some of you will remem ber something about it. We had a fight. Everybody knew if the south was defeated these slaves would he made free men and free women. They wanted to be free. Oh! yes, there is no doubt about that. They longed for their freedom. Were they op pressed? If they had been wouldn’t they ha\t struck for their freedom when they could? The north en listed and was justified iu doing it, a few regi ments of blacks to fight against us. In the old south, if wc had proclaimed their freedom at the beginning of that war, we could have enlisted every one of them, to a man, in our defense. [Applause.] How the Speech Was Received. Cincinnati, October 29.—[Special.]—The speech delivered by Governor John I>. Gordon, of Georgia, in this city last night, is the whole topic in political circles today. The democrats are very exultant over the address, which they regard as a complete refutation of Foraker’s bloody-shirt issues, while the republicans are correspodingly east down, and admit that the arguments presented by the eloquent Georgian are diflicult to controvert. 'The speech has certainly, to a great degree, taken the wind out of Foraker’s sails. The local compaign committee is being besieged on all sides with requests to make another appointment for Governor Gordon in Cincinnati before the close ol the campaign. In his speech here, last night, Governor Gordon alluded to the reception of Jefferson Davis, at Macon, as follows: It in charged that wc cheered Jeff. Davis. Does that mean going to war again? Ixjiiih reason. Hup posewed dn’t. Huip we we turned our bucks on this pale faced, broken down old man? What did he do that I hadn’t done? I don’t think I shot any body, but I tried nr*‘lty hard. You might ask me to turn the cold shoulder on the wife of my bosom. She went w ith me to the front. She followed me to camp, shared my dangers even to the picket, ut times In danger of battle, and und r ; r ividence I owe to h< r tender nursing that my life w.n spared me. Why sheuid 1 hate her.’ If we should turn our backs on that man. r« lu-e him our sympathlm, wo would rn'-rlt the scorn of every brave man in this audience, and you would feel an absoluie contempt for us. When J* If. Ihivls left ihe United States, he left it rich with regret and full of political honors. For our sakes he became poor and del aned forever from politico! honors in hi own country. He lingers to day with broken health and scarcely a place to lay his head, dragging after him the wounded limbs with increasing suffering tliat Lfliowe<i h m from Buena Vista. What would you think of me if 1 said: “Go hence. 1 have no more use f>>r you?” I am not going to do it. 1 would have contempt for General Morgan (who sat on the stage) if he went bark on the grand old name of Abrnharn Lincoln. Put yourself in the other fellow’s place. It was my fortune, a few weeks ago, at Philadelphia, to take Dart in the celebration of the adoption of the constitution, and when Georgia ha! taken her part, 1 was proud as I stood in the Stic its to sec the shattered remnants of the union army bearing the shattered rem riant of tlie <•1'1 Hags, and as they were viewed by that Octobi r light, amid the shouts of ten thousand throats, j f it that thrill that J know was pulsating in the veins of strong, grand men, the remnants of the Giand Army of the Republic. Why shouldn't i? '1 hey were < onseciated to the cause which to those who gathered around'hem, was us Holy as honor and truth.

The democratic managers hud made arrangements to give Governor Gordon a hearty reception, and notwithstanding the inclement weather, a large audience greeted him. The general, upon being introduced, referred to the charge of being a “kukhix,” made by the republican press, mid denied it fully, as sorting that he never at any time following the war, belonged to any organization except one formed for the maintenance of law and order, and that he had not, at any time, been a mem ber of a secret society. Hu then spoke of the charges of sentimentalism, made by the Commercial Gazette, and acknowl edged to the impeachment. He then spoke of the reception of Jeff Davis, justifying it as in his speech at Cincinnati last night. He firn referred to the subject of the flags used in the Macon demon stration, and touchingly described the love the people felt, for these war-stained banners, and their desire to hehold them once more at their reunions. He held that while there were about ivdozen of them unfurled, there wore at least 50,000 national flags displayed, but that the northern correspond ents of the partisan press were affected with eolor blindness and could not see them In referring to the late war the general said that at no time had the south desired to de stroy the union; that she had furnished too much valor and treasure and blood to ward its formation and building to wish it destroyed ; that the war was only the outgrowth of a construction of the constitution, which differed from that of the people of the north. The sections he com pared to two boys, “Johnnie” and “Yank,” who fell out over a matter that could not bo peaceably adjusted, and that “Johnnie,” having gotten the worst of the fight, had been invited back by “Yank.” That invitation was accepted, ami “Johnnie” was back to stay. Ho condemned very severely the course of certain northern republicans in the keeping alive feelings of sectional animosity, and charged that in such course lay the greatest danger to our republic, and closed wit|i an exhortation to the people of all sections to forge the passions of the past, and unite in a common purpose to promote the prosperity and exalt the [greatness of our country. The Luck of Some Men and How They Ac cept It. In the grand monthly drawing of the Louis ana St.ite Lottery October 11, two-tenths of the capital prize of one hundred and fifty thousand dollars wore sold in this city, the re maining fractions in New York ami Chicago. Mr. Laurent Faget, a well-known broker do ing business at 181 Common street, was the first comer at the lottery oitice Wednesday morn ing, and, on behalf of a friend, presented for redemption one-tenth of ticket, 13,(H6, entitled to fifteen thousand dollars. Having received a bank cheek for that amount, Mr. Faget bowed his acknowledg ment, signed a certificate and departed. Scarcely had he withdrawn when in stepped two gentlemen, Mr. Victor Tujague ami friend. Tujaguo had drawn a prize and he desired to claim it in person. 11 is| ticket,sß,4Bo, repre sented two-tenths of the third capital prize of twenty thousaml dollars, and wits cniitlod to four thousand dollars. Mr. Tujague is a handsome young fellow, native of New Orleans, apparently 21 years of ago, and with his lather keeps a saloon at 213 Jiecatur street. He bought his ticket from a peddler iu his neighborhood, and is thoroughly convinced that fortune is kind in the distribu tion of favors. He received a check for four thousand dol lars on the New Orleans National bank like a little man, smiled, and wanted everybody to smile with him, and signed for the biggest sum of money he ever received for his individual account, for although his father has usually ! joined in his lottery ventures,on this particular occasion the old •gentleman “guessed he i wouldn’t go in,” for which unrighteously guess j the o. g. is doubtless investigating his horo scope with a view of obliterating from the firmament his zodiacal sign. Victor expects to add “& Son” to the sign which swings over the door of the house of spiritual refreshments, 213 Decatur street, and to invest in such choice properties as he may consider bargains, He will not loan money at usurious or even doubtful interest. The other one-tenth of the one hundred and fifty thousand dollar prize was drawn yester day by the Union National bank for account of a depositor’—New Orleans Picayune, Oc tober 15.

The Population of Chinn. From the London Spectator. It has been the custom of late to disbelieve in the ancient estimates of the p<>j>ulai .ou of Chinn; but the North Chinn Herald, a well Informed Jour nal, publishes statistics which strongly suport them. It ap)»car.s that the authorities nt Pekin have recen tly taken a census for taxing purpoHD, and that the village bailitla, whose interest it is to understate the figures, return the jiopulatlon at 319,353,'00. Five provinces are omitted, and their populndon, as recorded in the lost census, brings the total up to U’J'.’.O O,'XJO. Even this figure Is indejK'i.d *nt of the population of'i hibet f Kashgar, ill, and Corea; and the total number of souls ruled by the emperor of China, ther-lore, exceeds 400,000,000, and sill! dis plays a tendency t > increase. As the population of India exceeds 2> r M),010,(0), tlie Indians and Chinese together constitute more than half the entire human race, a fact worth tl e attention of those philosophers who study Ixmd >n and Paris, and then announce that “man believes ’ this and that, fl here), re many races of in* n, but some of the foremost among them, </., the French and the Arabs, scarcely incr< use nt all, while a few, c. y., the Ottomans, slightly decline. If the process now going on continues for another ccntuiy. the world will belong in the main to four races, or rath r people—the Teutons, most of whom will speak In ;lish; the Slavs, the Chinese, and the natives of India. It L quite J4>sslble, however, that they may quarrel, and that their m irch toward the mastery o the planet, which else will Ix longtothcm like a cheese to mites, may be seriously checked. CHUK IM!
