CHINA'E GREAT LOVE OF
PEACE,
The Chinese Minister at Washington Sir Chentung Liang Cheng, made an dress in Philadelphia, December 17th, before the Academy of Practical Sciences, in which he said: "The rise of a great people is, as a rule, the result of long and successful struggles against hostile neigh- bors. Such was the beginning of the Greeks and the Romans, Such was the beginning of the modern nations of Europej Far different, however, was the case with the Chinese, They seemed to be more concerned with problems of material ime provement than with measures of offeren and defense. Accordingly, the first pages of Chinese history are not given, as is usually the case with the history of most vations, to providential escapes, heroic ox- pleits, bloody battles and stubborn sieges, bat to inventions and discoveries, which enabled the Chinese people to attain a bigh plane of civilization long before many others could
emerge from barbariam. The invention of writing was one of the first achievements of special importance. Among the other benefits of civilization, the origin of which the Chinese have trac- ed to the remoto past, may bo mentioned the establishment of public fairs for the ex change of commodities; the use of nets in flobing and bunting; the rearing of silk- worms; the cultivation of the various kində of grain; the use of medicinal plants for the healing of diseases. From the beginning the arts of peace were cultivatod seemingly to the exclusion of the arts of war.
The pacific beginning of the Chow Dy. nasty, about 1,000 B.C., presented a atrik-

THE DESTROYER.
She raced away down the sunset track, Beyond the mines and the boom;
The spray flashed red on her turtle back
To the whirr of her engine-room.
Her funnels spouted their smoke plumes
black
Sho looked the spirit of doom.
Along her sides the wavelets hissed,
As she opened out her spoed,
They foll astern to snarl and twist.
And writhe in her wake and bleed.
Hers was a force no seas resist,
And she gave then little heed.
Away in the west the red sun sank
To drown in the heaving flood;
And fast with never a noisy crank
Or piston rod a-thud,
Her stern set low in the high ware-bank--
She swam on a sea of blood.
Into the night, when the suu had gone,
The fast Destroyer flow,
And never » side-light gleamed or shone,
As the pale stars grew and grow.
What errand grim did she speed upon?
Only her captain know.
Through the swooping seas she clove a track
Into the blinding gloom-
Stumpy-tunnolled, sinister, black-
She was the Spirit of Doom.
And the keen spray hailed on her turtle-
back,
To the throb of her engine room.

Back to our forts the Destroyer crept,
As the dawn rushed in same;
Her stacks were blistered, her docks sea
Bwept,
But she licked her lips as she came ;
And she took her place, where her com-
rades alopt.
