Lady Susan Townley, whose husband was formerly Councillor at the British Legation in Peking, contributes a long article to the Weekly Dispatch reminis cent of the days she spent in China. The following is extracted from the article:- Such and little story came to my knowledge the other day. From my usual post on the verandah I saw

funeral procession wending its slow way through the fields to a little burial-place close by.

I asked the bay (Chinese mansor- vant) who was being buried, and he told me it was a little girl of eleven years of [age who had been stolen by a neighbour And secretly taken to Peking to be sold as a slave.

"But people were too pradent to buy a girl who evidently was not his and of whom he could give no good account; ao, after days of wandering about with her and finding at last that he could not get her off his hands, not daring either to return with her to the villag whence be had stolen her, he murdered her by throwing her down a well

"Her body was not found till days after, when the man had coolly returned to live in his cabin Lear her father's. The prime, however, was brought home to him, and I hope he suffered for it!

"Selling girls as slaves is not at all an uncommon thing here. They are bought as servants and domestic drudge. In many cases they are well treated and,
