A WOMAN IN THE KASE At Least that is What Wealthy American Chinese say BRUF4G ON THER WftH Between the Empire and the Mikado. Li Hung Chanel s a Chinee While the Reigning ‘ D'nasty is Manchenan. New York,Oct. 12. —Wong Chin F„o, the Americanized China m o gives t his expl matiou of the orij of the China Japan war: “Woman is ar the {bottom of i ail. “It was so in Corea, so it is n China. In both instances they stand solid for the Chinamen. Th Empr-‘SB of Corea sided ip with th* Chinamen against, her own hus band and tiie Japanese pind tin American missionaries, The Em press of China sided in with L Hung Chang and the real of th* native Princes against her own son the present Emperor, and the en tire clique of’rbe Manchu Pnnce.- and their Inks of wild savages and the lattir have temporarily won, and Li Hung Chang,the oni' Chinaman who e\e* held an im portant post under tho present for eing dynasty, has been banish* d to Pawting Foo,the capital of Chi li. “The intrigue was a long one.l started alMjoat immediarely idler Li Hung Chang was mad* centi dencial adviser to the throue.-.b-m• 1870. The conspirators were near y all Manchus. T hey assert the it was mt ouiy unjust to them,but dangerous to the dynasty,to give ; Chinaman so much power among ms own people ; but torso many 5 ears the brave Empress had been able to defend Jher wise counselor and has kept Li safely in his high position, principally becausi t e Viceroy did not give them rn cause for complaint. The long-looked-for excuse final ly came. It came with the recent reverses in 'the Corean campaign, and Li Hung Chang was charged with incompetency. The conspira tors argued that no Chinaman i.- capable of being a conqeror. Sueli genius is only born with the Man- Chit race, and King Ching Wong, or Prince Kung, a Mancini, was duly installed in Li Hung Chang’s place. “I he Chinese throughout the Empire are justly indignant Jover the matter. They had hoped that through the long years of intimat< intercourse between the Tartars and the Chinese all race feeling was obliterated, and especially when political offices and positions of trust were to be equally divided between the conqueror and tin conquered throuh the civil service examinations and meritorious pro motions as proclaimed some year ago. “Grumblings are already com mon, not only among the Chinese officials and literati, of which Li Hung Chang is a prominent mem ber, but among members of inllu ential secret societies, such as the Yee Hings and Au Chun Whey The former, which has a member ship of tens of millions of able bodied men, formed for the express purpose of wrestling buck Chiur from the grasp of the Tartars, i alleged to be getting ready for ai immediate uprising. It has a ?,< v York branch as well as a San Fran cisco branch numbering nearly 15,000 men. As far as I can learn, nearly every one of rhem is mon anxious to make a strike now.

For the past week or so an old negro woman has attracted consid erhle attention to herself by going up and down the streets, half sing ing. half croning religeous songs. She occasionally stops and ex lortulates with colored people on tile infillri. ss of their way. She is perfectly harmless, but is simply razv upon the subject ot religion. She is known as “Aunt Meeley,’’ and outside of relig oustopics is as sane as any one. I happen to know a very curious story ot the vexed ace problem, th** whole of which linges upon the extreme views ,f the gospel that this poor old lemented creature takes. If you’ll bide wi’ me a bit, I’ll tell it you, on itting, of course, the names if the parties mostly interested, as one of them, especially, is well known over this county. In a prosperous community in Floyd county lives a yvell to do arnier. He has many acres of rood land that teems with a rich harvest. Besides his farm, he has a arge store, and sells everything imaginable to the country people hat live near him. For miles around this farmer’s home, are vast coaling regions, where the timber is cut down and burned to charcoal. Many men make a living for themselves and families by work ing in these coalings. Some years ago a family, containing several members, moved into this .coun try from Ohio. The father, son. and a brother of the good wife gained a fair living by getting em ployment burning charcoal. Now all of this new family were known to be strict Christians, and took a great interest in all church mat ters. The wife very frequently prayed in public, and the family ■stood very high in the estimation if the people of the community. Noyv on the place of the young farmer first mentioned, there wrs a small building which wan used every Sunday by the community for holding a Sunday school , as the nearest church yvas some miles away. The northern lady yvas a teacher in the school, and all of her family were regular attendants. IKAva’s soniT 'months ago yyhen this old “Aunt Meeley” became such a fanatic’upon religious sub jects, and as she lived in that neighborhood, she commenced go ing from house to house preaching and praying. The people humored the old darky i:i her vagaries, as she had always borne an excellent reputation. So at last it came to the ears of the community that this northern family had taken this old negro woman in their home and allowed her to eat at the same table with them. They were even more horrified to learn, and from reliable source, that they had even allowed this old negro to sleep in the snowy white beds, and, alas! that she had been the bedfellow of the good wife. The gathering storm of popular indignation against such flagrant >pposition to the social usage of the southerners, vent in open war fare in the little Sunday School one beautiful sun-shining Sunday .norning. There was a strained, lefiant h.ok upon the faces of the taiwart men as they gather around lie frontdoor. The women and hildren had a frightened look on their faces as they hurried into the little building. There was an ominous, threatening feeling in :he very atmosphere that told of *>ining trouble. The family from Ohio came in and sat in their accustomed places. The farmer named in the begin ning of this story, took the good wife aside and asked if certain ru mors yvere true concerning their in timocey with “aunt Meeley.” She replied that such was true. “Then said Mr. Blank,” I must ask in the name of myself and all of the members ot this school, I must re quest that you resign as teacher in this Sunday school. Then pandemonum turned loose. The woman jumped up and com menced to scream, and at last her excitement became so great that s he fainted. Her husband and brother raged and stormed, but the cooi young farmer remained firm and insisted upon his decree. The matter was argued in the school and hot and bitter words followed each other in quick succession. But for one man's calmness and unfai ing courage in the dispute it might have resulted in blood, shed, as the northern family were furious. The frightened people sat and listened, but refused to come to the assistance of the man who insisted upon their own wishes be ing carried out. At last he gained the victory, and the crest-fallen people who had condescended to putthemselves on an equality with negroes, beat alias y retreat. As a consequence of all this, which happened last summer, the Ohioans are entirely ostracised by their neighbors, but they are still regular attendants of the churches near by. This article founded on actual facts, and if it should ever become necessary I can name ev ery person connected with the af fair and prove my story. How would it do to ask the commissioners to change the ten thousand dollars issue of fifty dol lars into one and two dollars bond. Would it not do better for local currency? Give us your opinion. lam informed that Mr. Albert Ewing, the handsome young law yer, is making profound research in ornithology. He has made some valuable discoveries, and has suc cessfully proven the old saying “that if you will sprinkle salt on a bird’s tail, you can catch it,” to be utterly without foundation. He made practical tests of this mat ter and found to his chagrin, that one of the cherished superstitions of his youthful days was a myth. Only Manslaughter.

It would be senseless to say that «as not simply because he never went through college. He is one of that bong list of self-educated men of which our country iy so justly proud. Soother land can boast of so honored a list of self-made men. Deprived of the educational advantages which th' 1 more favored enjoy, such men make the most of their opportunities, and by their HJgh=Mnnded Spirit Os independence and Indomitable perseverance climb to the highest rounds of .the ladder of success and fame, Ex-Setretary Rusk did not inherit his widt knowledge of agriculture and practical farming. He acquired it by studying natur* and reading the proper books. There is not a boy in Georgia today, having the ordinary allowance of intellect, who may not make himself felt as much in the world as did Mr. Rusk. Good Books Are the best friends that any boy can havts Through •♦hem he may become the dally companion of the greatest minds that the world has ever known. All that their wide experience has taught them they are ready to tell to the bov who reads. In the ENCYCLOPEDIA BRITANNICA the greatest scholars of this generation have not only given their best thoughts, but have carefully gathered, classified and condensed the best which the great men of all ages had to offer to the world. When ex-Secretary Rusk was a boy H would have cost him A Small Forttwie To purchase the ENCYCLOPEDIA BRITANNICA, and I.ad he been able to purchase it, lie would indeed have possessed 1 the greatest reference library then known to man. but it would have Been meager compared with the great 1 ith edition, revised and brought up to date, as it is In the new edit on now sold at introductory prices to subscriber* of THE CONSTITUTION. We say that every intelligent boy living w Georgia today has a better opportunity t» become a great man than did the Hon.
