China sad Japan?
e news from Japan andChlna is un
»lly interesting. Its features are both
ous and coiniou! at the same lime. Tbe
rrnosa expedition, for example, which
Japanese government organized some
le ngo, for a denoent on Formosa, and
eu countermanded its orders, resolved
go at all events. The dispatch from
n Francisco containing the news,
ought by the Great Republic steamship
on Japan, says the troops deolat
vcly they would go to Formosa. Tbe
vei nmeut had .really to yield to the will
the soldiers so far as to send them to
oy, intending, however, that they
uld remain there till the Chinese gov
meat could be souuded on the subject,
t, like our Hlibustera, these Asiatics
re spoiling for a light,and actually went
Formosa on their own responsibility,
appears, however, that they met with
position from the Formosans. Tie
-lilt remains to be seen. There
a spec of trouble also at Corea. Eigfc-
n Japanese were*beheaded by the Oo-
ans simply because they were Japsnese.
is shows a bitter feeling of hostility
sinst the Japaneso. The Coreras weje
Tiding forts and drilling troops for do
nee against Japan. There had hpra an
ack'on the house of tbe -Brittfch Legs-
I st Jeddo, with a view to arrest some
e connected with the legation who was
- rged with on offense against Japsnese
v. At Shanghai, China, a Chinese mob
attacked the French quarters, which
ppened to be too near a joss bouse to
t the devout celestials. The French
re making a road to their quarters,
hich went near the josa house.* Five
ousrad Chinese, it is reported, wore
'gaged in the aaeanlt. The riot was
eiled finally by tho French police, os-
-led by the English. There is, evident-
, a good deal of fermentation among
e Mongolians arising oat of prejudices

« Kadiak Public Werahlp Bill,
A hill is now before the British Parlin
ent havipg for its object tlje restraining
~ the ritualists, or, us they are called,
e Uigh Church party. As a general
le, and for the most obvious reasons,
e ritnaiists are tories of the deepest
ye. They believe in divine right, in
tidiurd supremacy and such like. On
moHt all points they are in sympathy
itb' the great conservative party. On
point, however, thoy are not in har-
ony. They .reveal unmistakable ten.
noies towards Borne. Mr. Qladstone,
e recognized and indispensable head of
e liberal party, is Or prominent ritualist.
. Oludstuue is now in tbe funniest po-
ti u in which any great English states-
an ever found himself. With the entire
ngth of the great liberal party at his
-ck, ho is resisting a measure which is
wentiaily English, and wblob, if rightly
nderstuod, must command the sympathy
of The democracy of the British Empire.
It is not wonderful that Mr. Qlsdatouo's
name is now mentioned in commotion
with Oxford Uuiveesity. How Mr. Glad
stone is to get out of this dilemma, or
what is to be the final resting plaoeof this
remarkable man, politically rad reli.
iously, it is extremely difficult even to
eus.—N. Y. Herald.

COLUMBUS ENQUIRER-SUN
Is the only thoroughly independent paper South. It believes
we are to win; not by complaining about tbe past, but
working for the future. While it gives proper space and

tance, it aimB to call the attention of emigrants and capital
ists to our great resources and to build up the South on a
basis that has for its foundation industry and economy.-
While disclaiming to be the organ of any creed, party or
society, all its tendencies will be in favor of TEMPER
ANCE, MORALITY and RELIGION. Being deeply
interested in the success of the farmers, and having implicit
faith in the grand destiny of the GRANGES, the EN
QUIRER-SUN will devote a large space, under a capable
editor, to AGRICULTURE, and in chronicling the move
ments of the Patrons of Husbandry.
THE DAILY ENQUIRER-SUN
Will contain all the latest National, State, Local and For
eign news, devoting much space to Alabama Interests. Its
editorial management will be fearless for right, and while
recording passing events it will not neglect the arts, sci
ences and the advancement in the world’s material progress.
THE WEEKLY ENQUIRER
Will give weekly a digest of all Foreign and National
news. It will devote much space to Southern intelligence
and will contain original articles on Agriculture, the Granges
and other matters that will be of incalculable benefit to the
planter and general reader.
The SUNDAY ENQUIRER-SUN

much needed, viz.:
A GREAT SOUTHERN LITERARY WEEKLY!
It will contain original articles, stories and sketches, his
torical and biographical, from Southern pens. Each issue
will contain in addition poetry, scientific notes, domestic
recipes, fashion and household affairs, wit and humor, no
tices of late hooks and periodicals, religious reading, church
news, and in fact every interest will bo represented that
will, in any way, aid the reader.
