The Chinese are not without ingenuity, their water wheela bearing witness. There are good number of these in the smaller streams among the hills. They are mado of bamboo to the height of 14 feet with short bomboo pipis so arranged at the extremity of the wheel that they convey the water, as the wheel revolves by the natural: motion of the stream, to a long wooderi trough fixed on the axle of the wheel, from: whence'another trough carrica the water to In the rice-fields adjoining the stream. some places there are scores of these in- genious water-wheels performing their required task with unerring faithfulness night and day alike.
One other point I may notice before closing. I crossed over at one point a pass Home 4400 feet high, as high as the highest mountain in the British Isles. A magni- ficent ride up to the summit through forests of pine and fir and bamboo: at one side a roaring, rushing mountain stream falling in tumultuous confusion: grand peaks and mountain spurs of rugged rock on either hand; and a view from the summit of vast extent on all sides, a sea of mountains with here and there a fertile valley and an out spread plain. These were ample enough rewards to repay one for the stiff climb, not to forget a three hours' thunderstorm when halfdown the other slope, with a violent gale of wind and torrents of tropical rain.

Pleurisy, added to pneumonia and dysentery, is racking his body so that his great mind is gradually.clouding.

The popularity of Leo XIII is proved by the universal expression of sorrow for his approaching end.

A special dispatch to the Herald from its own correspondent to Rome, says:
Leo XII still survives. Though his body has been racked for days by phou monia, dysentery and pleurisy and though an operation was performed on him for the tapping of the pleural cavity, yet he con- tinues to cling to life, even though by a slender cord. It has been predicted hourly for several days that he would die the succeeding hour, and all preparations for caring for his body after death were made three or four days ago, tered Extreme Unction two days ago, and many times it has been announced that he was dead.
