RESIDENCE, IN A HEALTHY SITUATION, with
The history of the removal from office of the late Che-hsien, of Shanghai, Moh, is a curious tale of Chinese official corruption. Moh's dis- missal was secured because he gave a just deci sion in his Court as City Magistrate. A certain well-known banker, much esteemed by Tso Kung pao, wanted to buy a Chinawoman, who had the right to sell herself, asa concubine, and offered her the sum of Tis. Boco. She refused, preferring to dispose of herself to a young and good looking man for Tls. 2,000. Another old Chinaman also wanted to buy her for Tis. 8,000 A FURNISHED FAMILY
For some reason, the case was brought before Moh Che-hsien to decide to whom the girl should, belong. Moh decided that she had a perfect right le dispose of herself as the pleased; so the young and beautiful woman disposed of herself to her lover for Tls. 2,000, infuriated at the frustration of their attempt to "force a woman into one of their scraglios, these two mandarins determined to revenge them- selves on Moh for his impenetrability to their bribery. So they raked up an old charge W against Moh, of accepting a bribe of $5.000 from a man who some years before hat, killed another Chinaman in a brawl at Hongkew, indicted him for bribery before Tsa Kung pao, and Moh was dismissed.. There was another charge against Moh. His son had married a courtesan, which is an act that disgraces any mandarin's family. The son lost more at gam
bling, than he could pay; his father refused to pay his gambling debts, and the son committed. suicide. His widow, with her child, went and quartered herself upon the Che-hsien, the child's grandfather, in his yamén. This, we believe,
was considered a very discreditable circumstance for a
mandarin: All this is a specimen of the kind of rulers who desire to interfere with the government of these partly ex-territorialized set- tlements, and, we suppose, of the Chinese whom Professor Leane Levi toils us to take an example from.-Mercury.
