"lif* ix China.???Human life is very cheap
here. Dittuie tor prolonged existence in this
world or the world to come it essentially
oriental, and in China this is pre-eminently
the case. Young women are especially apt,
in view of the unpleasantness of their lot, to
take their own lives in a moment of discour
agement. The busy world here takes no
notice of the event, not even caring to kick
the body into a decent grave lest responsibil
ity for the death should attach to any one so
benevolent, for in China suspicion is convic
tion, and circnmatantial evidence conclusive
proof. Often several girls will join together
with suicidal intent, and throw themselves
jointly into the still-flowing river on some
dark night. Last week a Chinese maid was
scolded by her mistress in Hong Kong for
some act of remlasnets, and growing despond
ent, she sought her room, took an overdose
of opium, and passed out of this vale of tears,
into what subsequent condition I know not.
Down toward the southeast corner of tbs'
city walls, but outside of it, there is in Can
ton a short thoroughfare or lane, about fifty
yards in length and from four to eight yards
in bieadtb, into which l never dare to look
when in that part of the city. It is the Can
ton execution ground.
There is no street leading directly to it,
either from the city or from the river. It is
touched on every side by the shops and
houses of nati vcs, for it is the heart of the
southern suburb, where the people abound
like swarmlug bees. The whole eastern side
is bounded oy a dead waff of brick about
twelve feet bign, while on the opposite side
is a row of workshops for the manufacture of
the coarsest kind of ungleted earthenware.
I suppose there is no spot on earth where so
many tragediea have been enacted aa on this
little spot of ground j and how any human
being can endure it to live in proximity to
the place ia mure than I can understand. 1
suppose it is because by a merciful provision
of nature the fear of death diminishes in ex
act ratio to its incressing frequency. Here
it is so frequent that the people laugh at ita
approach, and instances of heroic death are
the rale, rather than the exception. Tne na
tional sensibilities seem to have been almost
dea'toyed.
Here in one year, during the Taiping re
bellion, I am told tbat 60,000 heads were
severed from as many bodies; and for a num
ber of years thereafter the average annual de
capitation rate was 1,5U0 persons. Think of
it! it seems as if the ground must be crim
son with the perpetual sacrifice of guilty and
innocent blood; and I half wouder that the
stain has not passed through this tiny earth
to redden the soil of America on the other
side.
While from a somewhat cursory examina
tion of the penal code of China, 1 am led to
believe thst it aims at as high a state of
public virtue and justice as that of most civ
ilized countries, I am compelled daily to
ahudder at tne Inhuman way in whlcn the
enforcements the laws is conducted. The
torturo system prevails, not only in connec
tion with the puniehment of convicted crim
inal, hut alio as a means of forcing an accused
man to confess, whether he be guilty or not,
and as a means of forcing a witness to give
the evidence that It is suspected he has in bis
possession. If I were writing for some pub
lications instead of a decent American news
paper, I might fid columns with revolting
detailaiuch as any traveler may witnesshere,
wtiich would not only have the merit of
truth, but would exceed in thrilling sensa
tionalism any of the fie; Ion which finds its
way into after-dark literature.
The hardest feature ol it all is the noseem-
ly baste with which criminals ere bustled
into eternity. About an hour before the eu-
S reme penalty ia to be administered, the
oomed men are informed of their fate.
They are then promptly eicoried lo the yamun
of the governor (merely bemg allowed the
privilege of a hearty meal), wnere the death-
warrant is exhibited. Then they are pinionsd
and may be seen in the act of being trans
ported to the execution ground in bsskets
carried between two ceolles. Their limbs
are pinioned, and their arms tightly fastened
behind their backs, being tied with a cord to
their ankles. At the back of each criminal's
neck is a stick, to which is attached a long
strip of paper, Inscribed with the man's
name, age, crime, and fate. In somf cases
this papor is affixed to arrows which have
been shot through the pSir fellow's ears, but
for the sake of simplicity we wilt take the
case of those who are granted the privilege
of the roost honorable form of capital pun
ishment.
B-sides the coolies who are carrying the
candidates for decapitation, the procession is
made up simply of two magistrates, who
march at the bead, and take seats in front of
a shop facing the execution ground to witness
the final tragedy.
The criminals are damped ont of Ibe has
keta, placed upon the ground in a kneeling
attitude, and ranged in a line; or if there are
a good many of them, in two or three lines.
The ligatures of the arms and legs throw the
bead back into an almost horizontal position
An assistant runs rapidly along the line,
snatching away the tickets with which each
man is marked, and bringing the bead into
the most effective position. In the great ma
jority of cases the victims display the ut
most stolidity it is said, which, to my mind,
only emphasises theBadnessof this barbarous
picture.
In less than a minute, it may be, from the
time when the mournful hand entered the
yard the magistrates on their reserved benches
will shout, ''Pan!" (execute) Aud with the
rapidity of an echo the dull, crashing blows
of the headsman's ax are beard filling along
the line. I suppose these imperturbable
heathen would claim thst this way is not so
barbarous os our custom of keeping a man
in prison for months of anxious apprehen
sion, with only the gallows in yfew; bat our
system certainly gives the friends of in inno
cent convict the needed time in which to
work for a reprieve, besidet extending to the
guilty ample time for purging bis eonl of the
crime he has committed.
Practice makes perfect, and tlieae Cantonese
executioners are experts in their profusion
It is rare, indeed, that ittakrsasecond stroke
to send the head milling and tumbling in the
gore that saturates the ground. In a quarter
of an hour more the bodies bsve been
damped Into rade c (fins and carried to the
ciimtnal burying ground jmt outside the
east gate. The beads are often suspended in
ciges near where the crime was committed
for which the victim died, or placed <m the
city walls over the various gses to serve as
general warnings.
A Bishop Htnmxo the Tiokp..???The late
excellent B<thop Heber, in hit journal, has
given a narrative of the mode in which a
tiger bant is conducted, fall of picturesque
effect and striking from its minute detail:
???At Huileanpoor, the young Rsja Gour-
man Singh mentioned, in the course of con
versation, that there ni a tiger in an ad
joining tope which hid done a great deal of
mischief; ibatbeehou'd have gone after it
biro self bad be not been ill, and bad he not
aght it would be a fine diversion for Mr.
Boulderson, the collector of the district, and
me. I told him I was no sportsman, hut Mr.
Bonlderson'a eyes sparkled at Ibe name of
tiger, and he expressed great anxiety to beat
np his quarters in the afternoon, under
snch circumstance* I did not like to deprive
him of hla sport, as he would not leave me
by myself, and want, though with no inten
tion ofbeing more than a spectator. Mr., ?P????y andmak* Important^entlfieobsemt.

scientific and ita commercial aspects. They
say tbat winds, tides, terrestrial magnetism,
meteorological and other important phenom
ena cannot be thoroughly investigated except
under many different conditions of tempera--
ture and locality. Ampog many triumphs
of Arctic research they mention the fixing
of the position of the true magnetic pole by
Boss, the finding of the simple means of
keeping the needle pointingto the true north
in high latitudes, the discovery of the com
mercial mineral cryolite and of the great
whaling and sealing grounds in the Spitsber
gen and North Greenland seas. They assert
also that in spite of the frightful disasters
that have befallen some exploring parties,
the loss of life has been small. About three
per cent of the Arctic explorers have died in
the course of tlieir work, not a large propor
tion when compared with the mortality
among African explorers.???New York Sun.
number of people, on foot and horseback, at
tended from our own camp and the neigh
boring villages, and the same aort of interest
and delight waa evidently excited which
might oe produced in England by a great
conning party. The Raja was on a little
feuate elephant, hardly bigger than the Dur
ham ox, and almost as shaggy as a poodle.
She was a native of the neighboring wood,
where they are generally, though not always,
of a smaller size, than those of Bengal and
Chittagong. He sat in a low tiowdaa, with
two or three gnus ranged beside him ready
for action.'Mr. gonlderson had also a formid
able apparatus ofnmsketsand fowling-piece.,
projecting over his mohout's head. Werode
about two miles across a plain covered with
long jungle grass, which very much put me
fn mind of the country near the Cuban.
Q tails and wild fowl atose in great numbers,
and beautiful antelopes were seen scudding
away in all directions.???
The bishop then describes the beating of
the jungle, the rushing oat of two carious
animals of the elk kind, called the ???mobr,???
and the growing anxiety of all the people
engaged in the hunt. He then proceeds
thus:
???At last the elephants all drew up their
tranks into the air. began to roar, and stamp
violently with their fore feet. The Raja's
little elephant turned snort round, and in
spite ol all her mohont (her driver) could say
or do, took up her post, to the R.js's great
annoyance, close ra the rear of Mr. Boulder-
son. Tlia other three (for one of my b.igg.???g9
elephants had come out too, the mouout,
though unarmed, not caring to miss the
ebow) went on slowly, bnt boldly, with their
trunks raised, their ears expanded, and their
sagacious little eyes bent intently forward.
'We&recloseuponhim,'saidMr Boulderson;
???fire where you see the long grass shake, if lie
rises before you.??? Jnstat that moment my
elephant stamped again violently. ???There,
there ??? cried the mohout, 'I eatv his head,' A
short roar, or rather load growl followed,
and I saw immediately before my elephant's
head the motion of some large animal steal
ing through thegrasg. I fired as directed, and
a moment after, seeing the morion still more
plainly, fired the second barrel. Another
short growl followed; the motion was initue
diately quickened, and was soon lost in the
more distant jungle. Mr. Boulderson said,
'I should not wonder it you bit him that last
time; at any rate we shall drive him out of
the cover, and then I will take care of him.???
In fact, at that moment the crowd of horse
and foot spectators at the jungle side, began
to run off in all directions. We went on to
the place, bat found it was a false alarm;
and, in fact, we had seen all we were to see
of him, and went twice more through the
jungle in vain.
???1 asked Mr. Boulderson on our return,
whether tiger hunting was generally of this
kind, wbioh I could not help comparing to
tost ebrse ol bubbles which enables us in
England to pursue an otter. In a jangle, he
answered, It mast always be pretty much the
same, inasmuch as, except under very pecu
liar circumstances, or when a tiger felt him
self severely wounded, and was roused to re
venge by despair, bis aim was to remain con
cealed, and to make off os quietly os possible.
It was after be had broken cover, or when he
found nimseif in a situation so as to be fairly
at bay, tbat the aerioua port of the sport be
gin, in which case he attacked his enemies
boldly, and always died fighting. He added,
tbat the lion, though not so large or swift an
animal as the tiger, was generally stronger
aud more courageous. TUose which have
been killed in India, instead of running
away when punned tbrongh a jangle, seldom
seem to think its cover necessary at all.
When they see their enemies approaching,
they spring ont to meet them, open-mouthed,
in the plain, like thdboldeat of all animals,
amsstiftdog. They are thus generally shot
with very little trouble; but if they are
missed, or only slightly wounded, they are
truly formidable enemies. Though not swift,
they leap with vast strength and violence;
and their large beads, immense paws, and
the great weight of their body forward), often
enables'hem to spring on the head of the
largest elephants, and fairly pull them down
to the ground, riders and all. When a tiger
springs on an elephant, the latter is generally
ante to shake him off under bis fast, and then
woe he to trim. Tbn elephant either kneels
on him and crushes him at once, or gives him
a kick which breaks half his ribs, and sends
him flying perhaps twenty paces. The ele
phants, however, are often dreadfully torn
and a large old tiger sometimes cliogs too
fast to be that dealt with. In this cue it
often ??? happens that the elephant htmselt
falls, from pain, or from the hope of rolling
on bis enemy; and tba people on his back
are in very considerable danger both from
friends and foes, for Mr. B-iuIderson said the
scratch of a tiger was sometimes venomous,
as that of a cat is said to be. But this did
not often' bapnen; and. in general, persons
wounded by his teeth nr claws, it not killed
outright, recovered easily enough.???
Ax iHTaBESTUto Mexican City.???The city
of Recatecse, capital of the state of the same
name, has a population of about 65 000, and
lies nearly 8,000 feet above the level of the
gulf. Its narrow streets, overshadowed by
adobe walla centuries old, straggle up and
down the surrounding heights in tha most
marvelous mannsr???stony alleys rnshing
straight up the steep mountain sides, or de
scending as perpendicularly by aeries of steps

As in all Mexican cities, where extremes of
wealth and poverty meet, the higher classes
are seldom seen, except as they now and then
roll by in their carriage*. Ztcatecas has its

as widely from the lower classes of the streets
aa the aristocratic residents of New York's
Fifth avenue differ from the gamin of Five

are in the majority as to numbers in poor,
long down-trodden Mexico, I beg you to re
member that the typical Mexican citizen has
no superior in any country in tba way of
culture, rehnement, politeness, and true
worth. Zscacetas is a remarkably well built
city as to public buildings, and has many
fine basinets blocks and handsome private
residences. Like all Mexican towns it has
the common features of rose-filled plssas, in
evitable Aiameda/Casino, and other resorts
