THE BRIG "HERMANN" IN A TYPHOON.

Captain Richter of the German brig Hermann has supplied the Hiogo News with particulars of his eventful voyage. The Hermann, a vessel of

1 tons register, left Newchwang on the 23rd of at month for Kobe laden with beans. Fine weather was experienced until off Quelpart, when a strong gale set in from the northward, but after this moderated it again became fine, and there was every appearance of a prosperous voyage. On the 10th instant, however, in Lat. 31. 8 N. and Long 132. 38 E. the Hermann encountered the full force of a typhoon, which quickly reduced her to a disabled state, and made the ultimate escape of the vessel and those on board almost a miracle. At half past two o'clock in the morning of the 11th, the brig being then under the main lower topsail akne, the typhoon burst with such

violence that even this small canvas was more than the vessel could bear, and as it was danger- ous to send men aloft the sheets were slacked

1 up and the sail allowed to blow away. This cased her for a little, but between three and four o'clock the wind increased and a terrible gust from the north-northeast threw the vessel on her beam ends, the seas making a clean breach over her. The barometer at this time stood at 28.45. The fore-mast was at once cut away, and in its fall stove in the deck. Then the main-mast was cut away, and as the brig righted the seas came over her in all directions, stashing the skylights and carrying away bulwarks, boats, and deck gear. Two Japanese were at this time washed over- board, but a rope being thrown to one he was hauled back, and the other got among the wreckage alongside and managed to make his way on board again. Shortly afterwards another tremendous sea broke over the unfortunate brig, and this time smashed the wheel, bent the spindle, and carried away the punip wheel. The same sea dashed Captain Richter against the spokes of the wheel, by which he sustained some rather severe injuries in the groin. Both mates and several of the sailors were much bruised, and also cut by the glass of the skylights, The weather now commenced to improve, and all hands set to work at the pumps after a makeshift wheel was improvised. By three in the afternoon the Hermain was cleared of water

and found not to be leaking. Then a jury foremast was rigged up, the jib-boom being used for the purpose, while the spanker boom was utilized as a main-mast. On the 13th the British steamer Carnarvonshire hove in sight, and Captain Hermann hoisted the German flag. The steamer sent a boat alongside and Captain Patrick urged Captain Richter to abandon the brig. This, however, he declined to do, and was supported in his determination by both his officers and crew of Japanese, The Carnarvonshire then attempted to tow the Hermanu, but the hawser broke, and after another effort to induce Cptain Richter to abandon the disabled Herman, the steamer continued her course to Yokohama. The crew of the brig continued getting things in order, and improving their jury rig, and on the 14th the Japanese barque Shimore-war sighted and bore clown to the brig. The Captain of the bar que kindly offered to furnish Captain Richter with whatever spars, or other gear or assistance he required, but although very grateful Captain Richter declined. On the 15th the coast near Oshima was sighted, and at six o'clock yesterday marning Oshima point bore cast, distant about 25 miles. At nine o'clocke Takasago-mary came upand took the Hermahu in tow, and both vessels arrived here safely last evening at six o'clock.

Captain Richter has desired us to express his thanks for the kindness he received at the hands of Captain. Patrick, Captain Young, of the Takasoge, and the Captain of the Japanese barque more especially, the latter having been particularly desirous of rendering assistance, and ming quite annoyed that he was unable to be of service.-Hjogo News.

THE MISSIONARIES AND THE LOSS

́OF THE « EUROPE” (

On this vexed subject the Foochow Herald of October 26th has the following

We have observed a leuer appearing in the Hongkong Daily Press regarding the recent wreck of the S.S. Europe, with Editor's note ap pendeci. Although receiving numerous letters upon the subject shortly after the accident, we considered it advisable for the Missionary cause- sake, to allow the subject to die by degrees out of the minds of those who were jusuly irate. Now, however, that the Missionary in question is attempting to vindicate his character, and justí. fy his conduct, we feel compelled to review the matter. Captain Bendall, upon the loss of his vessel, undoubtedly received extreme kindness from some Foochow ladies, whom he publicly thanked through the medium of our columns) but his crew were evidently treated quite the reverse by one more capable, if desirous, of rendering assistance to the needy. The province and duties of Missionaries in China is, we opine, to first succour their distressed fellow.countrymen, and cases where help is required are fortunately isolated. The duties of a Missionary in China

be considered as onerous, and his establish. mentis, 13.5 rule, commodious, and capable of receiving casual unfortunates. Now the facts of the present case show, that upon the utter wreck. of the steamship Europe, hospitality-aye even shelter was refused by the Missionary in ques- tion, who actually added insult, by questioning the bona fides of the wreck, and dictating to, and casting blame upon the Officer, as though he

THE HONGKONG TELEGRAPH, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 31, 1882.

LOTTERIES IN THE FAR EAST.

The following remarks on the Manila and Chinese lotterica, which we take from the Japan Weekly Mail of the 14th inst., should commend themselves to the numerous supporters and dupes of these discreditable speculations ;——.

The Chinaman is a shrewd gentleman. He contrives to extract some modicum of milk and honey from materials so barren that they would deter any less patient and thrilly exploiter. A notable example lies before us in the shape of a piece of paper bearing a tolerably close rescin- blance to a greenback. For pictorial design it is ornamented with an eagle, under whose out- spreading wing are two numbers, one in Roman, the other in Chinese, characters. It bears, be- sides, three unintelligible, Chinese seals and the following words and figures:-

Any one who has ever been so foolish as to in- vest in a Manila lottery ticket will immediately observe the resemblance its conditions bear to this grotesque document. Truth to tell, the Chinanian's ticket is meant to be in part a fac- simile of the one issued by the Spanish specula- tors. The celestial knows (who better?) that His Satanic Majesty undertakes most of his terrestial promenades in the garb of a gambler, and that the spirit of speculation can gain admittance any ANVILS, VICES, AND DRILLS COMBINED. BOS where provided only it suits itself to its company. A Manila lottery ticket originally costs five dollars in gold, but can only be purchased here by a dis- bursement of six silver pen. There are of such tickets twenty-five thousand to each drawing, the value of the tickets consequently, amounting to $125,000, gold, while the prizes are 777, their total value being $93.750. Thus for every thousand tickets there are 31 prizes, approximately, and their valec is 75 per cent of their cost. The Chinaman, however, seeks a market anlong persons who can not afford to pay six silver you or even sixty cents for the Manila tickets are also sell in tenths. He accordingly purchases a ticket and strikes off one lundred greenbacks, each bearing the numn=' ber of the ticket. These he sells, at 20 ser cachi, thus converting his six silver, into zo paper, pen. The holders of these fractional tickets lose nothing so far as their chances are concerned, but in the Chinaman's lottery the total value of the prizes. is only 37 per cent. of the total cost of the tickets. No sane man would wittingly risk his money in RULES, such a wild speculation as this, but the Celestial provides against doubt by printing the conditions of the lottery in Roman characters only, so that there is little likelihood of the ticket conveying information to the class of customers he affects.

All this is shrewd enough, but is it not a piti. able thing to think that the money of men who can ill spare it should be inveigled out of them by SALTER'S SPRING BALANCE SCALES. auch cunning and unprincipled devices? We have commented strongly, cre-now, on the fict that although lotteries are illegal in Japan and al though the police make every effort to stop them, exterritoriality confers upon foreigners the privi lege of setting the laws of the country at defiance and openly carrying on a nefarious trade which would not be tolerated for a moment in England. Our arguments were of course met by the paltry pretext that the Japanese themselves acted as agents for the sale of the tickets and that the authorities winked at the affair. Whatever value once attached to such a subter fuge, it has now ceased to have any significance, since anotice has been isssued forbidding Japanese to take any part in the sale of lottery tickets at other business connected with them. But of what use is such a regulation when a Chinaman Is at liberty not only to sell the tickets to Japanese but also to make, bn his own account, a secondary lottery out of every original ticket? Those very classes of the people for whose protection and restraint laws are specially designed, are thus exposed to be exploited by every unprincipled adventurer, and by the assistance of the Chinese residents a betto or coolie is enabled to snap his Gagers at regulations essential to the preservation of public morality, This is-n charming state of affaits, and we may well be proud of a civilization W which has brought such barbarism in its train.

could imagine even the most charitably dis posed becoming miserly: but where so few such Instances arise, and when any little casual éx- penditure would be readily met and defrayed by our Consuls (even if the owners of the vessel, or the individuals were loth to refund for any outlay) the offence of not affording temporary assistance is

idea unpardonable. The of the Mission is, we conceive, inter alia, to imbue the natives with the virtue of charity, and example is the only method of illustrating to them whatreal charity consistsof, for undoubtedly charity and gratitude are the two missing links in a Chinaman's disposition: "Charity may begin at home," but in a foreign country where friends are not at a discount, we should expect to sea a fellow-countrymen sub- stantially assisted when in distress.

The Missionary in question disco- vered his crior too late to condone the moral offence of which he was guilty, and the subject very naturally, and properly, became ventilated. Although we can scarcely hope, that even upon reflection and mature consideration, this gentle- man's heart may become less hardened still we we would sincerely hope, for the sake of his posi tion, and considering that his fellows are depen- deat, upon the voluntary subscriptions received from, home, as well as China, that for the future. he will strive to retain the good name for the Mission-cause- by which alone it can hópa to. prosper in the midst of a sensitive, observant, and peculiar race of people such as the Chinese,
