They were all veteran warriors, who only a short time before had whipped the notorious Commis. sioner Yeh and his satellites out of Canton. They had seen service at the Taku forts, in India during the mutiny, and at other, places where a lot of hard fighting had taken place, and now they were only too anxious to have a brush with greatest difficulty they were kept to the Station the murderers of poor Burton. It was with the but Captain Shadwell, who was in immense favourite with them, spoke to the men and quieted them. Their side arms were taken from no one out without challenging. I was pointed them and instructions given to the scntiles to let out as an eye-witness to the murder, and I was immediately surrounded by a group of eager, and wasted to know if I could not take him and enquirers, one of whom took me quietly aside a couple of his mates to have a turn or two sailors who patrolled the Settlement that night at the cowardly rascals.

While the 'doctor was busy over Mr. Lay, I gave Mr. Samuel Clifton, then Superintendent of the Police in Shanghal, as good an accoital of, the murder of Mr. Burton and of the whole occurrence as I could, considering the excited state I was then in. I could hardly speak, over- come so I was with the excessive heat and exertion. I was bathed from head to feet in perspiration, my clothes were all tom, my hat was gono, a stream of blood had trickled down my face from where the stone struck me at the beginning of our fight, and congealed, giving me the appearance of having a long scar from the bridge of my nose right down along one cheek. I sat down for a little while in the Station perfectly exhausted and at first was able to say nothing. Of course only Mr. Lay and myself knew then that a European had been murdered at the top of the Maloos even the four them if they attempted any of their title tricks LARGEST STOCK IN THE EAST.

I know of one case where a complaint was lodged by a big fat Chinaman, the keeper' of a rice shop on the Yang-king-pang, who came into the Station with long cat across bis shoulder, which he said a police-man had given him without any provocation. The officer on being questioned admitted that he wounded the Chinaman, but said the latter was saucy and QUEEN'S ROAD and DUDDELL STREET. would not get out of the way, upon which he (the constable) aimed a blow at him with the flat of

The sailors remained quartered on shore for a considerable time, during which they suffered terribly from an Inflammation of the eyes, called at the time, ere blight, the affection that used to be very prevalent at Shangbal, and which I believe is still common in Foochow and other southern ports. My depositions by the British Consul, were taken. regarding the murder, and I heard nothing more about it for a week or so after, when one day I received a note asking me to attend that evening and was met by the Consul and Mr. Clifton who at the Police Station."

I did so, and word was given to the men to enter the house without delay and selke everyone on the premises.

brave fellows who rescued us knew nothing about it, for there had been no time to tell them As soon as Mr. Clifton knew what had happened be lost no time in mustering his little force of police, which was in those days a very small body, officered by the genial Superintendent of whom I speak, and three sergeants. Arms and ammunition where served out.
Our weapons were manle-loading muskets of the famous old "Brown Bess" pattern and bayonets, and in about 30 minutes from the time Mr. Lay and were rescued from the mob, the little force was on the way to the scene of the murder, our object being to bring in the body and arrest any rioters that might still be lurking about. I say our because I had recovered my strength while the polfer were getting under arms, and of course I joined the expedition in the capacity of a guide to show them where the bedy lay. On entering the Malos from the Barrier Road 1 saw one of our late assailants, who had come off very badly in the encounter with the four policemen could not be certain that he was the man I had seen holited off the ground by a blow on the head from my Hibernian friend about half an hour before, but I think he was. At all events judging from the way he was trying to pull kim- self together and his stupid lurching from one side of the rond to the other, for he was just making off after recovering his senses, he must have been pretty badly used up, and con- sidering that he had already been paid in ful for his rascality we let him go his way, and proceeded at the double to the scene of the murder. When we reached the spot we saw L sight that would shock the most callous heart. There was only a mass of bloody pulp with nothing to tell it had once been a human being but a part of feet, and the remains of two hands. All the rest was undistinguishable, and the ground around looked as if a couple of oxen had been slaughtered there. The little band of Europeans standing around were very much affected;
I saw tears in the eyes of several of the brave fellows, and I am sure summary justice would have been dealt out to the rabble had there been any of them near. Bot there was not a soul in sight. It was hard to believe that this was the same place that such a short time aga had been alive with a yelling, murderous throng. But so it was. From the time we entered the Maloo person except the fellow. I spoke about near the Barrier Road. Not a dog even barked, and all the shops were closed. When the word was given to lift the body we discovered for the first time that we had come away without a stretcher to place the remains upon. This difficulty, how ever, was got over more quickly than I can tell it. The Superintendent was not looking at what his men did. He was sitting on bis grey pony like a field-marshal and staring right before him up the Maloo. Two of the men quietly left the ranks and, crossing the road to one of the houses and brought down the door with a couple of blows with the baits of their muskets. On this we placed all that was left of the unfortunate man and slowly and sadly retraced our steps back to the Station. On the way back many were the enquiries among the men as to the identity of their unfortunate burden. At last one of them said "I rather fancy I know the clothes. Why its "Chummy Burton 1" "To be sure it i said another and then every one recognised the deceased. We were just turning into Barrier Road when we saw a Naval officer, whom some of the men knew to be the paymaster of H.M.S. Hightyar, though he was in plain clothes, coming up Park Lane, as the lower end of Nank ing Road was then called. He was on his way for a wall out to the Race Course, quite ignorant of what had happened, Mr. Clifton stopped him and told him of the riot and murder, and he at once undertook to hurry back to the ship and report the matter to Captain Shadwell, pro- mising that a force would soon be landed from the Inflexible and Highfyrr, which were then in port, and we went on to the Station, where everyone was glad to arrive and rest a little, far we were fairly fagged out, the evening being desperately hot. It now began to get dark, and some of the men were told off to be kept under arms, and perform sentry duty around the Station in ease of a sudden attack. In about an hour after, a very serious mistake was made, which might have resulted in dreadful consequences, but fortunately the blunder was discovered in time to prevent any catastrophe happening. At about 8 o'clock in the evening one of the sentrles gave the alarm that A mob was coming down the Harler Road from no one has ever found out any means by which THE Company's Steamship the direction of the Maloo.

Labour is the snag ahead in modern politics, and as the most convenient way of rushing boldly at the difficulty and never getting there, the Government has appointed. a mild and respectable Commission to shove back the sea and hold up the deluge. Its business is to inquire into the cause of strikes in the past and and means to prevent them in the future, and it consists principally of plate, fat, dull individuals. whose ideas are limited to orthodoxy and prayer, and the sanctity of property, and the necessity for doing nothing contrary to the habits and customs of their forefathers.
