As they went up the street they were mobbed and assaulted and in the evening came and told me how threatening things were. Along with Dr. Pirie and Mr. Deans I took them to the Consolate that the Consul might examine them himself and find out how things nood. By this time, however, he had evidently heard enough not to doubt what I reported and dispensed with any cross-examina- tion of my Informants. He said he would at once write in to the Chen-tal. At the very time we were at the Consulate a hand of soldiers slipped out of the Chentai's yam/wwith their coats formed, after they were supposed to have retired for the sight, and went along the street shouting and collecting a crowd, making straight for our station outside the north gate, where they were to commence the work of destruction, as it is fafluential resident related to some of our isolated and unprotected. On the way an case stopped them, and reasoned with them on the gravity of the offence and the certainty of their being detected and punished, finally prevailing on them to turn quietly back. If one place is destroyed, all will go, and the escape we had was so narrow that the Chinese at first hesitated to speak about it to me.

But the works changes even in Hunan. As the result of a visit to the province at the end of last year was led to conclude the people were much mamicably inclined than they used to bt. Wing whether this held good also with regard in the tougher places with which I was acquainted, I considered it my duty to go and find out; hence the journey. In one respect we soon noticed a most hopeful sign, in the fact that the authorities were not nearly so feverishly anxious to keep their eye on all our movements, We were permitted to reach Changsha without being taken in charge, and this was promising As we nxhared once more in the evening, in the old spot, aver against the city, intending on the fallowing moraling, to repeat the experiment of thirteen years before, I cannot deny that I found myself very much afraid, and with no liking for thetrsk before us. Whether it was sheer cownidire, or due to the fact that residence in the East unstrings one's nerves, I do not know, but the teriing was intensely painful, and prac Ically unfitted me for the undertaking. There are none so quick to note the slightest touch of timidity and try to play on it, at the Hunsn roughs For this there was but one care. I was to "lift mine eyes unto the hills from whence cometh my help. The help came through the word which Christ addressed to the sinking Peter when he volunteered to walk upon the water, an effort be had no particular call to make, "Olt thou of little (altb, wherefore didst

I remember that what prevented Pater's walking from being a success was his allowing his attention to be taken up with the winds, When he saw the wind boisterous, he was afraid "ant withdrawn from his Lord; as if he would not have sunk just as speedily in a calm, but for Flis nid, The matter was now quite plain to me. I had allowed "the winds" to rccupy my mind to the exclusion of all besides.

The Lord bad been for the moment forgotten In the master, as if we had not been in anxious circumstances often enough before and never found Him, fall us; or as if we had any reason to suppose His power would fail us now. Reviving faith in Divine help removed the fear. We were enabled nex: day to walk into that next of hornets with as little trepidation as into one's own house; and all the rest of the journey we were entirely free from it, I write this because
I may help another timid one in like strakta.
The following morning the friendly north wind blew freshly, and after breakfast quickly carried us over to the city. We stepped ashore, my two assistants and I, and began our work in the riverside street. The day was threatening, so it was not en crowded as on aur first attempt, and to our great for we found the people in good humour, and quite friendly. Talking and selling we came at length to the smail West Gate, and si hefer us a long, straight, busy street, bang with handsome sign boards, and crowded people all intent on their own business. had been our intention to leave the city severely alone, as long as we were allowed to remain unmolested" in the suburb, but this wight proved too tempting. Only filty yards more and should be openly through the gate, and within the walls. Polley said "Turn away, you are doing well ; wait till you have been over all the reels outside." But in such a case polley has a poor chance. We turned towards It, and as we did so the soldiers on guard sprang to arms, and drew themselves up on either side to keep us out. The officer in charge came for- ward to meet us, and ordered us off. We "tried to reason with bim, but he said he had Instructions to keep "foreign devils out, and we had better go away' quleily. As the best thing open to us we followed his advice, and returned to our work in the riverside street. This, however, was now at an end; we were im- mediately set upon by a crowd of roughs, who mele our books, hustled us about, and made it clear that it was time for us to be off; so we managed to slip down to the river, got into a sampan and rowed away.
The results of the moming's work were about ens heur's peaceful conversation with the people on their own streets, about one hundred books sold, and as many more stolen. Not a great deal certainly, but yet the most that has been as yet accomplished at Changaha. Till the city gate in- cident, the people were friendly enough, bat sa soon as I left the officer, according to my men, he began railing and reviling, and so started off the roughs. To the authorities at Changsha I would make humble petition in much the same terms as Pat used when he met the bear in the backwoods of America,. “Oh skints and holy angels," said he, "help me, but if you won't help me, please don't help the bear. If they would help us, or even simple refrain from hindering us, I think some headway might now be made. As we had no wish to waste time in a round of diplomatics with the officials, as soon as we got back to our boat we took advantage of the good wind, and continued our journey up the river.-N. C.

On Saturday, the 13th; it rained in torrents, which was a God-send, as the Consul said. Rumours of all kinds are thick. We are literally living on a volcano and the eruption may come at any moment.
I have traced the ringleaders and authors of the false stories in several instances and with on solitary exception all are connected with the yamini.
Let us hope a gun-boat will arrive 1000. A French gun-boat tried to come up and the report. of her coming did much good for a day or two. The people said she was bringing three thousand French soldiers to punish those who had made a disturbance at the Custom Hause, at the request ofthe Commissioner, whole a Frenchman. Then we heard she had gone back and the reason was given that the officials at Ichang being at their wits end had sent a telegram to General Liu, of Franco-Chinese War fame. General Liu sent in reply a telegram to the Captain of the gun-boat and such was the terror of his name that the Frenchman turned round and steamed down river with ell speed.

June 17th. We are tolerably quiet here now, though it is still thought advisable to retain a strong guard of soldiers at the Consulate, Customs, and the Roman Catholic and Methodist Episcopal Mia sion premises. It was feared that a garrison of Chinese soldiers would be little better than a riot, but it has proved different in our case, for they seem a fairly decent and quiet set of men, kept wall under control by the officers, who however do not believe in sparing the rod. We rather expected that all claims would speedily be settled, but after a consultation with the Viceroy the Total refuses to admit any claims. He is now away on a visit to the Governor of the province. What will be the result remains to be seen. Some one must be punished for such an outbreak as we had bere, and it seems the weakest must go to the wall. The Tactal and Halen were both called to Nanking, and as a result the Hsien is dismissed, though I believe he did all that was possible for a man in his position.

Gregg was an bonamble man. He knew that I had come in on his statement that I would be paroled, and he sent a man to me telling me of his subsequent orders. The man said something about stresting me, and I I came here to picked up my pistols, anying: be paroled and not arrested, and I'll kill the man who tries to take me.'

"With my parole I went to Warrenton, Va., and sat down to law. Every time I'd leave the country some petty provost marshal would arrest me. It was a ceaseless annoyance, besides being a constant source of anxiety to my wife and children. My wife left home for Baltimore, THEATRE knowledge decided to call on President Johnson, and in passing through Washington without my Her father and Johnson had been bosom friends before the war and had bees in the same congress. She made herself known to Johnson, not he not only refused her request, but treated her rudely. As she was leaving the White House,

Greeley were before the people, Grant was "Then in 78," he went on, "when Grant and terribly abused and I took the stump for him to refure the abuse, and these were the only political speeches I ever made. I never accepted anything from Grant, because I promised the people in my speeches I never wonist."
"How many times were you wounded?" the colonel was asked.
"Six times, and I carry a Yankee bullet-In my thigh now."
Were you ever captured ?"
"No, but I had two or three mighty narrow escapes. In December, 1864, after some hard fighting with Illinois troops, in which we were scattered, 1, with Tommy Love, one of my best men, stopped one night at a Mr. Lake's, near Rector's Crossroads Our-horses-were-hitched- ontside the yard and a squad of Yankees in passing saw them. They surrounded the house: and one of them shot at me through a window, The ball struck me in the side and passed around to my back bone. I knew I was hard hit, but before the Yankees came in my coat was under the bed. I bad put my hand on the bloody wound and smeared it over my mouth, giving me the appearance of an internal hemorrhage. The Yankees did not know me. They thought I was one of Mosby's men, but they were unable to prove it. I looked as if I was done for, and after taking my clothing and boots they left. I knew that as soon as
they went into my pockets they'd find out whe! was and would come back for me, so I got the family to put me into an ox-cart, cover me with fodder and a negro drove me away. Soon after I was gone the Yankees came galloping back. They had found whose clothing they had and they wanted me. But I was safe in the moun- tains."
The colonel hesitated a second, and then, with a peculiar smile, remarked: "And, do you know that negro ran away the very next day."
TEN DAYS LOST FROM A LIFE.
Hare you over tried to fancy how, it might seem (having been dead) to come to life sgain? Let me tell you what happened to me once.
The country to the north of the Yangtze suffering very much from drought; in some places they have not even drinking water, and | for many square miles the country is so dry that they cannot plant their rice. Those next the Yangtze are even pumping from the main river, which is an extremely rare occurrence. Unleas we soon have plenty of rain I fear the prospects for the rice barvest are very poor. This North Yangtze district too is somewhat disturbed, the result doubtless of the uprisings in the other places.
