A CHINESE INSURRECTION.
.Iluiimtre mid Tortnrc? Hoi'io* E.\- |J
limited.
The London Timc-t has the following: j
Uen. Kiii Shun arrived before Manas on I <
the second of September, 187(?, aud five j 1
clays later opened an artillery fire on the j:
northeast augle of the wall. I will not ,
recapitulate t!ie details of the siege; i
suffice it that breach after breach was ]
made, aud assault after assault repelled, >
during the period of two months for !
which it lasted. At lcu^ili, during the <
first days of November, snrtics were at- t
tempted by the ga.ri'^u, and some i
prisoners who were taken stated that, <
the provisions of the garrison being ex- I
hausted, their lender had sent them out (
to see how matters stood, with a view to i
seizing any opportunity of getting away, i
After examination the prisoners were <
beheaded. At length, nr. miduignt ou r
the fourth of >'ovember, the Moliamme- 11
dim General Hai-yen himself came out j i
and begged to >e permitted to surrender, j'
I quote the language of the memorial
itself ns to what followed :
"Kin Shun hereupon commanded |
him to deliver up the horses and arms j
of the garrison, und to hand over, in
bonds, the leaders of the rebels, after j
which lie was to draw up li*ts of the j
remainder ?>f their number, who were
thereupon to be called upon to answer j
to their names, and lie severely dealt |
with according to circumstances. Hai-yen I
agreed to do this. At daybreak on the J
sixth of November a body of '2.000 or j
'{,000 of the garrison sullied out from the j
west gate, the center of the column con- j
sisting of'aged persons, women, and |
children, who were guarded on all sides
by determined lighting men, with aims j
ill their hands; and Kin Shun, knowing |
them to be treacherously disposed,caused
his troops to stand to their arms. The j
Hunau trgops on the north of the city !
were drawn up in battle array, us were J
also the divisions on the south front, j
while a separate cavalry division was
posted at the commanding points, in I j
order to prevent escape. Su Hio-kuug J <
was at the same time ordered to go for- I'
ward and call upon the advancing body ! <
to throw down their arms, whereupon j <
their lives should still be spared ; but 11
t he so-styled general of the rebels, Ho 1
Lull by name, suddenly fired off a pistol ; t
? and set his troops on to make a rush at the <
trenches. Su Hio-kung instantly ordered J.
his men to charge, and Ho Lull was 1
taken and beheaded in front of the line J <
r\f vnlifil Itio/lorc: ovwl f)?n ! f
Vi MUVUV, X1U< 1VV. 1 iVWWVin uuu HIV ' *
desperate fighting men at their back, J1
abandoning their women and children, j i
made a bold rush forward, but they were I
enveloped by the various divisions of the j t
Hunan troops and the force under Kin i
Slum's own command, and the greater ! i
number of them were put to the sword, ji
One of the so-called generals of the |'
rebels, seeing that all hope was lost, , t
shot himself with a pistol, and every j 1
man of the scattered host was captured i
and beheaded bv one or other of the ! i
cavalry divisions. j }
"The infantry meanwhile had laid i;
bunds upon aud executed all the rebels !}
remaining within the city, sparing the t
women and children and aged persons, r
who were exempted from this act of re- a
.tribution. llai-yen end other leaders
were captured alive, and after being ex- i
amined before Kin Shun and his col- <
leagues, were put to death with the a
extreme of torture. The corpses of Han | 1
Hing-nuug, Heh-tsuu, and other leaders, <.
together with the remains of the self- ;
styled Prince of the Pure (religion), c
T'o-teh-lin, were searched out and ex- i
humed and cut to pieces, as a pubic \
example. Tlius, on the sixteenth day of ! t
November, the south city of Mauas was j c
recaptured, the leaders of the insurgents i1
destroyed, and their followers extermin- |
fiteil." i
How Times Have Changed. I
Almost every one rail remember v. hen ;
the seasons were more punctual. Sum- j
mer used to halt 011 the threshold of j
September, as if afraid to venture an- j
other step, lest the frosts overtake her,
and, years ajro, whiter would have beeu I
abashed to have been caught hugging |
.star-eyed April, and much more con- j
fused to have been surprised in the lap |
of our gentle May. But this is all j
changed now, the weather seers are all 1
at fault, and the seasons awry. May 1
days are in June now. Children used to ;
go to the woods the lir.st day of May, to j
eat sdudwiches, g<>t the whooping cough, |
and light, aud go home, glad that it had j
ended. Men who had miniature gardens ! .
used to roam through seed stores the |,
first of April, discussing with dignity I
find wisdom the yellow wrapped parcels j
labeled "early squash, or " early U
beets," or " four week benus." Tiie first I ^
of April found him talking " garden " t> |,
everybody he met, and ridiculing the i ^
idea of a "late frost" no matter what j
the almauae said. I?v tlie end of tiie !
first week in April, stoves were pitched f
into the coal bin in the cellar, and ice
cream was ordered for dinner. How ] |
changed all this ! Now, the chill air of
lingering winter makes the parlor witu
its bright and cozy fire look a much i
more agreeable place for May day. Now
and then spring is punctual, and we can ,
enjoy out-door life, finding delight in
coming in contact with dirt in the garden '
or among the flowers. The scent of |!
moist, freshly turned earth in spring !
time is a wonderful remedial agent, rob- ;
bing us of complexions that during the !
winter have become bloodless, and driving
ennui and dyspepsia hence.
Tlie Frighti-netl Soldier.
During the last siege of Gibralter, in j
tuo absence of tlie fleet, and when an !
attack was daily expected, one dark |
night a sentry, whose post was near the |
Devil's Tower and facing the Spanish ]
lines, was standing at the end of his I
walk looking upon them, his head filled j
with nothing but lire and swords, mines, j;
breaching, stormirgand bloodshed ! By j
the side of his box stood a deep, narrow- i
necked earthen jug, in which was the re- I
maimler of his supper, consisting of <
boiled peas. A large monkey (of which i
there are plenty at the top of the rock;, i
encouraged by the man's silence and :
allured by the smell of peas, ventured to '
the jug, and, in endeavoring to get at its :
content*, tlirust his head so far into the
neck as to be tumble to withdraw it. At
this iastant the soldier turned round and 1
came toward Ids box; the monkey, nn- ]
able to get clear of it, started up to run
oft", but the jug stuck to his head. This j
terrible apparition no sooner saluted the
eyes of thu sentry than his frantic imagi- j
nation converted poor pug into a formidable
Spanish grenadier, with a most
tremendous high cap on his head. Full
of this dreadful idea, he instantly tired
li'Q nioon rnovinor r?nf flior r.nomv
had sailed the walls. The gunrd took !
the alarm, and in lessrfhau ten minutes j
thogovernor and his whole garrison were"
under arms. The supprsed grenadier, j
being very much incommoded by his j
cap, and almost blinded by the peas, ;
waa Boyn overtaken and seized, and by 1
his capture the tranquility of the gam- ;
con was restored without the slaughter
which every man prognosticated in the j
beginning of so direful an alarm.

Two Young Voyagers.
Tho Sidney (Ohio) Journal says: ;
On Monday there arrived in Sidney on
the 3iee line tv\o children cn route to
Piqua. One was a boy seven years old, j
and the other a girl aged nine. These j
two small children had traveled all the ;
way from Germany, and had come at the j
solicitation of an uucle, who resides in
the above named town. They stopped
at the Union House while in this place,
and were as brTght and cleanly dressed
children as one would wish to see. The
only advice and attention they had wa?

crossed the ocean by themselves,
l)KA(i(Ji:i> TO (JLICK DEATH.
Seven IIpii Killri! and Several Wounded al I
liie liUimrliinK of a threat Ship.
The terrible accident at Chester, Ta., '
luring the launching uf the vessel Saru:oga
in Koach's sliip-yurd, is described I
is follows.
The 1;mnehing was to take place at i
line o'clock. The beautiful weather
tad drawn an immense concourse of
spectators to the ship yard. On the vessel
were Captain Sandberger, who is to
jommand her ; Captain Curtis who is to
xmimand her mute, the Niagara, which j
>vas launched a few weeks ago; an agent
:f the owners; Miss Fountain, who was
to christen the vessel, and two citizen"
jf Chester. Below wore forty workmen,
io whom was confided the labor necessary
to effect the launch. At a little
.listiiuce away, <>u i:n eminence from
which lie might command the whole
scone, stood Mr. John Fountain, the
superintendent of the yard. Mr. Fountain
suddenly observed that the tell-tale
b >ar !s were parting, and this meant
tlifit The sinp was puinug. xne superintendent
knew that the momentum pained
by tlie slightest movemeut would make
it impossible to .^toji the Inimeh ; so
ordeis were at once given in a loud voice
for all to stand l'rom under before he
pave the word to cut loose the last .stays.
At the same time the men at the saws
were ordered to cut the plunks holding
the cradles, as, it this was not done
promptly, the movement of the ship
would wrench the bolts from their
sockets, and there would bo danger of
the vessel, frame and all, toppling over.
The two planks were sawed, and the vessel
glided into the water with the velocity
of lightning. Miss Fountain raised
the bottle of Saratoga water prepared
ior the christening, and was about to
break it over the bow, when a scream
irose, and, terrified beyond measure, she
.Iroppod it overboard.
The ways were now clear, and as the
screams that terrified Miss Fountain
readied the ears of the spectators their
yes were greeted by a sickening sight.
Ihe great chain holding the cradles was
dragging along in ihe wake of the ship,
arrying in its folds men, iron bars and
wooden blocks. One man was cut in
Imlf oiwiflior VPfWtli
:ion ; others were limbless ; some were
carried into the water with the vessel.
V scene of great confusion followed. The
jell of the yard was rung, and in the
xmrse. of a few minutes the news spread
ill over the city and brought a crowd of
ivomen and children to the gates, clamor.ng
for admission.
The workmen devoted themselves to !
he extrication of the killed and wonuded I
:rom the rlebri* of the stocks. Seven
lead bodies were soon recovered and j
dentitied with more or less certainty. |
L'hese were : Edward Fawley, aged !
hirty years ; John Nelson, aged thirty- i
ive years; Charles "Wright, Sr., uged ;
Ifty years ; J. J^Crewe, aged forty-live !
rears ; Edward Burke, aged thirty-five
rears ; Bernard Cannon, aged thirty-two i
rears; George O. Woolf, aged thirty !
. er.rs, James Kasson, George Tliomp- .
ion and Walter Darkinson were found 1
tmong the injured, and there were others
vhose names could not be ascertained.
John Nelson was completely doubled
ip. The back part of his head was torn :
.ir, ami one ear was gone. The head ;
vas cut off and was hanging to the bo'dy j
?v u slight ligament. The arms were j
ut off and were hanging on the clothing, 1
md the lower part of the body was j
rushed. He was identified only l>y the
n-'iss tag which is given to each of the j
vorkmea when they i nter the yard in j
he morning, and the number 011 which |
orresponus with :i number opposite the :
unnes on the books of the linn. Nelson |
vas a single man. Tlie injuries of the j
nen were principally below the breast, j
nul the bodies and legs were badly torn, t
a some instances the limbs having been !
0111 out from the sockets.
The horrible rumor that many work- '
nen had been mashed to death and carled
into the water was partly dissipated
yy the calling of the roll, when it was J
liscovered that a number who were sup- :
)osed to be lost were living. All of the ;
leceased except Nelson have families. I
dr. Roach has given each suffering fam- i
ly $50 for the relief of present necessi- '
y. Wright owned the house he lived
11; all the rest were pour men.
Why They Often Fail.
Young men often fail to get on in the
vorM because they neglect small oppor- i
unities. Not being faithful in little j
hings, they are not promoted to the j
barge of greater things. A young man
v!u> gets a subordinate situation some- !
imes thinks it is not necessary for him
o give it much attention. He will wait I
ill lie gets a place of responsibitv, and
lie^lie will show people what he can
lo. This is a Very great mistake, i
Whatever his situation may he, he'
should master it in all its details, and i
jerform all its duties faithfully. The :
iabit of doing liis work thoroughly and ,
xmseientiously is what is most likely to .
enable a yonug man to make his way.
With this habit, a person of only ordinary
abilities will outstrip one of greater
talents who is in the habit of slighting |
subordinate matters. But after all the
moiv adoption by a young man of a
crreat essential rule of success shows
liiin to be possessed of superior abilities.
Milking Allowances.
We were struck the other day by the
reply of a musician to a friend who had
asked him to play (in a piano which was
out of tune. Someone was present who
had not before heard the pianist. " Do
play for us." said the musician's friend,
"3Ir. blank will make allowances for the
condition of the piano." "Make allowances
!" replied the pianist, " I have
heard that all my life, and it never was
and never will be true. Nobody ' makes
allowances.' If a pianist plays on a bad
piano, or a tenor singe when he has a
sore throat, or an orator gets out of his
death-bed to make a speech?the audience
is disappointed because he does not
ilo his best work, and it carries away an
impression of the performance which is
likely to hist for a life-time. It's the
same in housekeeping, and dressing, and
business, and everything else. People
expect the best under all circumstances.
There is no such thing as ' making allowances.'"
A .Mysterious Affair.
A lady, closely veiled, hired, not long
ago, in tlie sulmrlis of l)mi.i, a Russian
city on 1110 river Duuabcrg, a carriage,
aed dumping p. box securely corded into
the vehicle, ordered the driver to stop at
it sh >p where, as she said, she had to
snake some purchases. The driver slopped
and waited, bat the lady did not. refurn.
Then lie asked the shopkeeper to
allow him to h ave the box. Permission
was denied, but, on consultation, the
box was opened by the two men, when
the body of a dead infant wa< exposed.
The driver did not know what to do, fearing
that lie would be arrested for murder.
Tli" shopkeeper adviVd him io
put- the box back in tho carriage, drive
tu the market place, and leave it unattended
while ho ate dinner, in the expectation
that some one would steal ihe
box. The driver b?ok the hint, and the
b.ix disappeared. Neither hdy nor dead
body has since been heard of.

From our window, says the Danbury
Neivx, we have just observed a mau
cross the street in front of a living team.
Carefully measuring the distance with
1 lis eye he saw that he could make it in
safety "by hurrying, 80 he started on a
run and got across before the team
reached him. Then he stopped a moment
to look after the team, and then
sauntered leisurely on his way.

"il l0" 'kk'ty miles an lionr, tho night was 1
| j dark, there are many deep fills along the
Him., road, and certain death seemed inevit- ]
Con- able under the circumstances. The |
first, mother of the boy was overcome with I
!}?rc<J fear; liis father, in company with several
sinus imen> started out in search of his son's l
is of! remains. They passed along the track j
unco, ; for a jiumber of miles till certain they i
'?i"o ; were beyond the spot where he must 1
^tiie 1 ^ave the car. Nothing was to be J
. I seen nf him. mul the, nartv were return
v cut 1 ingnbout daylight when they discovered j
i ear- the object of their search lying within a j
'* . . 'few feet of the track. He was asleep,
rn-d i clothes covered with dirt and slightly j!
trees j torn, and his face scratched in several 1
t, N. ; places, but upon being awakened he f
I'arix i arose unhurt and walked back to Mans- j
nnd j fieltl, a distance of six miles. i
varts ! ril'e conjecture that he had walked off
dent | the train when asleep proved correct. 1
liam- I The boy states that he has no recollec- i
i tion of leaving the car, but was aroused j
j by hearing the crow of a rooster from a (
?ome neighboring farm-house. He found him- <
non, j self lying alongside of a fencc, and with [
er of i much difficulty clambered up the rail- ;
'lice, j mad filling to the track, where, it still j
is rc- i (lftrk, nnd feeling tired and stiff in }
pCrnI | the limbs, he laid down and slept. His
nuch 1 escape is the more remarkable, as there
per- I is a filling at this point with a descent of i
viuo j fully fifty feet. A board fence is at the 1
era- < and l*e broke through in strik- |

eu?-! A Murderous Lunatic. 1
the Quite a commotion was caused in the j
tbe i vicinity of the " Forge,'' Weston, Mass.,
cted ' by the wild freaks of an evidently es- i
ll"*"5 i Cill1C(l lunatic. His first appearance <
^ ; was before Mr. George Hull, who was c
Cos-! planting in a field near the roadside, 1
? j who, on looking up to see what the man {
ioti.nl j wanted, received a blow between the
irna" p-vcs nearly felled him; recovering i
had : himself and starting for the man, who J
it lis. ! was then on a run for the fence, the fel- i
I five i low stopped and commenced stoning v
1 ai,y | him, which caused a halt on Hull's part. {
rm'pr ! mau t;i?k to the highway, and next
icide ' came up behin 1 Mr. B. Hull, and felled ^
o an ; him to the ground by a blow in the back \
, by i of the head from a large stone. He i
were , m?xt met a man coming toward him with i

esig- j made to seize and confine the fellow,
rson, j but he somehow got a six foot fence i
lam- i stake and went wildly for any and j
'uiid aH who approached him. One of the. i
' tin- 111011 finally went into a house, borrowed I
' !a pistol, and presented it at the man, {
<t of threatening to lire unless he gave him- i
