INHUMAN CRUELTY.
The Shanghai Mercury reports the follow ing case at the Mixed Court, Shanghai, on the Sing Ah Woo and Sing Na Sau, a Chinese couple, were charged with inhuman cruelty to the six year old bethrothed of their son.
It appears that alt four weeks ago, these two monsters in human guise took charge of the little girl, and her feet being apparantly too large to suit their aesthetic tastes, they set about bandaging the same in such a cruel and at the same time careless way, as to cause gangrene to set in, in consequence of which the toes of both feel dropped off
The child, brought in Gäurt by her mother, was a most pitiable spectacle to look upon: her legs were emaciated, covered with blue and purple weals, probably caused by bamboo splints tightly tied around them; her feet were stumps, without toes, abnormally swollen, and
full of scars at the heels and where the toes had
been.
And withall, nothing more than a nominal punishment could be given to these fiends, as they simply followed the custom of the country, though in a far more cruet manner than is -usually the case.
The magistrate decided that accused were to paya Sjo fine, to be paid for the medical treat ment of the child in her mother's house, and that the child was to remain with its mother until married to the son of the accused,

The conditions were just about as favourable as they could be. Occasionally light clouds. passed over the luminous orb; but for the greater part of the time the sun was shining brigluly and clouds were few and far between. The ordinary tinted spectacles were of little use in watching the process of obscuration; but with a piece of wallsmoked glass it was pos sible to follow the process without the eyes duty suffering, and the eclipse was watched thus from this and many other offices with ease. When the sun's surface was a quarter obscured, there was a perceptible diminution of light, although the sun continued to shine brightly.
At 12 noon, the sun was barely hair covered, and shortly after, when the area of obscuration increased, the toning down of the light grow much more perceptible..
The eclipse began to excite some amount of
The New Press of the 23rd inst, says "A Nanking depatch states that the other day H.E. Liu Kun-yi had received a despatch from Prince Ching and Viceroy Li Hung-chang, Chinese Peace Plenipotentiaries at Peking. wherein it is stated that the salt gabelle should be taken as security for the indemnity payable to the Powers concerned. Before sending a reply to this is Excellency received a despatch from Viceroy Chang Chi Tung in which the latter stated that the salt gaberle is an important fin ancial resource of state, upon which the greater. part of expenditure relies. If it was offered to the Powers as security for the indemnity, how would the various expenses be covered HE Chang then states that China should inaugurate the poll tax as it is done in western countries. For instance, there, are 400,000,000 people; if 200,000,000 people (this refers to men of middle age) yearly pay co copper cash for the tax (of course, children, old men and women are ex- cepted), the total income therefrom will be 40,000,000,000 copper cash or 40,000,000 taels. Whether H. E., Liu approves of this suggestion or not we do not know. The New Press has one query to put Granting that if 200 million men all pay up, there will be milion acts revenue, what will there be if they refuse to pay?" Well, we expect t gabble in that case.

VICEROY TAO MO'S MCMORIAL AGAINST THE EUNUCHS.
EUNUCHS SHOULD BE EXTERMINATED.
We are in receipt of a true copy of the memorial forwarded to the Throne by I. E. Tao Mo, the popular and enlightened Viceroy of Canton, denouncing the, eunuchs (Li Lien yin and the like) and objecting to their being allowed to be at large at Ilsianfu, from which we take the following translation:
At 12.30 interest in the eclipse was very keen, for now there was very little of the sun to be

The flourishing or declining state of a nation depends upon norality.

Consequently, the natural differences between

The In an Army Order issued on April 2nd, it is multitude of the people, and the progress of announced that His Majesty the King has been affairs, as far as foreign countries and as neargraciously pleased to confirm the order given as the palaces, all depend upon the ruler y her late Majesty that a medal be stuck to alone... The position is high and the work is commemorate the military operations in South- difficult. It is true that this work is a dificult Africa. The order proceeds: one notwithstanding the daily admittance of enlightened and sensible students by whom the ruler of a nation is usually supplied with good advice or information, there still exist some fears for lack of sufficient knowledge in arriving at a proper arrangement in all the affairs of state. And now if bad people are allowed to share in the management of govern ment matters, is it possible that the country will escape ruin?
No individual can have both the defence and relief clasps for either Kimberley, Mafe- king, or. Ladysmith.
The medal in silver, with clasps, will be granted to any native soldiers specially em ployed within the sphere of operations, who fulfil the necessary conditions,
Non-enlisted men, of whatever nationality who drew military pay will receive broare medals without clasps,

In the annals it appears that incessant troubles have been sustained in the preceding dynasties by the interference of the eunuchs with the government affairs. The law of the present dynasty is wise and during its existence of over 200 years, no eunuch has ever been permitted to interfere with any matter of state. (In writing memorials it is the custom for the memorialist to deny the facts before the Emperor). Therefore the present government has been a prosperous one, surpassing any of the dynasties gone by.
