A TKt'E N I'OIIV,
In 1856, when the English and French
were at war with the governor of Can
ton, a number ot their boats ascended a
creek to a town called Fautee, whcHtJ the
sailors amused themselves by robbing
and ilMreatiug tho inollensive villa
gers.
Ten days a culler from the Eng.
lish fleet, iu passing tho town, was set
upon by the inhabitants, whose friends
luid suffered at the hands oi the first par*
ty, and the result was a massacre from
which only three of the foreigners es->
caped.
In the feicilement consequent to the
times, no inquiry wus niado v as to the
cause of the attack. At once a strong
force was dispatched, with a demand for
the person ol tho head uian ot tho village
whoso name was Sung-Seen. TJpon
learning (hat his surrender would save
his people from further reprisals, Bungs
seen gave himself up, and was conveyed
to Maco Fort, on tho Canton liver.
When this news reached the old man's
son, four youths, who were studying at
a Chinese collego in Fat-shan, they hur
ried librae, determined to reecuo their
lather from the hand ot the English.—
The undertaking was foolhardy, and its
success seemed simply imposstolo. -*
Sung-Scen was confined in the upper
story of a pagoda. The building stood
-in the centre of the foiK The iort issell
was garrisoned by two hundred- English
seamen and marines. Its walUAvere pa
trolled day and night. Notwithstand
ing this, the boys found means to 6end a
message to their father and inform him
oi their plans.
Upon the evening fixed for the attempt
ed rescue,l was on my way from Canton.
Near the village my boat was attacked
river pirates, and my men were obliged
to seek refuge in this fort, whoie I was
Wann'y welcomed by the lieutenant in
charge, an old friend named Brown. Af
ter I was comfortably settled iu his quar
ters, he said-
*1 have just received a warrant to ex
ecute Sung>.Seen. As V 1 don't know a
word of Chinese, lam puzzled bow to
inform him ot his fate. He is to be shot
to-morrow. Would j'ou mind telling
him what my orders are?'
I f-eplied that 1 knew the prisoner, and
had hccnjactive in petitioning the com
mandcr-in-chicl to sptire his life- Under
tho circumstances it would therefore be
exceedingly painful for me to comply
with his request. However upon loaru
ing that I was the only foreigner in the
place that could si.cak Chinese, and
thinking that I might be ot some service
to the doomed man, 1 consented*
••i ll#' old fellow rccievetl your message
very cooly,' observed the Ilentonant, as
w s seated oarsclves In fhe apartment be
low.- 'You mnst n6t leave here tosnigUt.
Tlie river it swarmiug with pirates. 111
give you a bed and you eanf leave early
in (lie morning.'
Itbrink fully accepted Bis ottet, and al
ter ordering my men to haul tbefr boat
up, I returned to the pagoda. It was
impossible Toi> roe »o throw ofl a feeltng
of depression at the thought of Burtg-
Seen's fate, and for that resCsda, and
proved, I am afraid, very poor company
for my best.-
We beard the load vofco Of a sentry,
followed by the report ol a rifie. Hur
rying out to learn the cause of alarm,
we were informed thai a body ofgbiuese

of SungsSccn. but believing it to bo marfo
by pirates, 1 shculdered a rifle and join*
ed iny friend.
Meanwhile the extreme end of Hie. is
lund appeared lo lie enveloped in flames.
As wo marched down to the boat sheds,
we noticed a flgure'bueily employed in
spreading the tiro.
'I can't understand this,'said the lieu
tenant, leveling his night glass in the di
rccliou cf the daring intruder. 'I only
make out one of the rascals yet.—By the
way he signals, bo must have a number
of accomplices. Bee if some ol you cah
not pick him 00.
Tlio words had scarcely passed his lips
when the sailers and marines Logan to
fire at the incendiary; while, to our
amazement, he slowly advanced, shout
ing—
'Fanqui hi\ Fanqui lal'
As though bearing a charmed life, tho
solitary figure at which they were firing
continued to approach otir men, uttering
all tho time his derisive cry*
On he came and by the lurid light of
the burning reeds that covered the
swampy part ol the island, we presenliy
saw that he was a mere boy ot fourteen
or fiften years.
Still, in their exciteirent, the riflemen
blazed away.
'Fanquilal' repeated the incendiary,
folding his anna and bravely defying us,
until he fell forward, wouuded in a dozen
places.
The attack had been so sudden and
the incendiary's daring so astonishing,
that the men had not realized the cruelty
of their act. But now as they gathered
round the prostrate form, overy man ex*
pressed a pity for him, and wished that
thoy had jiot yielded to the frenzy oi the
moment.
Bidding them form in two companies
and search the lower part of the island,
and extinguish the fire, the lieutenant
said to uie-
4 Tlie poor fellow is speaking, Will
you ascertain what he says, while I look
alter my people? ' •• •- - -
Advancing to tho sufferer, I raised
him in my arms, when I discovered be
was Suug-Wang, the youngest son of the
unfortunate man coufined iu the fort.-'
Then it flashed across my mind th«t lie
had his life to save that ol bis
fat hoi'.
Aided by a kind hearted seamau, I
carried him into the fort,and having plac*
ed him on a lounge in our quarters, in
formed him who 1 was. Upon this he
opened his eyes and iaiutly said—
' Tell me, has my -father escaped? I
cannot die until 1 know.'
As he spoke, my host entered the pa
goda, and hurriedly remarked that the
men had been unsuccessful in their
search. Then he mounted to the floor
above, but returned in a moment with
an angry exclamation on his lips, and
declaring that the prisoner hud got away.
Mib handcuffs and irons were there, but
tho man had vanished. A rope was
hanging out of one of the windows, by
which he must have descended, between
two of the sentries.
•See what you c*n get out of the boy,'
said the lieutenant; 'be surely knows
something of the affair;' and then he
rushed away, leaving me with the dying
lad, to whom I immediately translated
whot had been said.
It appeared to give Sung-Wang mo
mentary strength, for lie half-rose, and
exclaimed —
•Now I am happy —am happv I Do
uot weep for me but rejotCe in my hon
orable death. Fortunate is tho-child
who dies for his parent. Tell my father
that my last thoughts were of liinh'
As he uttered these wofds he sank
back into my arms and died aa peaceful-*
ly as a child sleeps.
'Noble boy!' said the lieutenant, when
ha learned tin full extent of Sung-
Wring's heroism. 'What a love his must
have fcJeen to give him courage enough
to face that hail of bullets I These Chi
nese are « wonderful people.- 'Wall,
we'll bury him with naval honors.'
An hour before sunrise I quitted Ma
co« Fort, carrying with me all that was
mortal of the faithful Chinese lad. Tw«
months after; when the blockade was
raised, 1 visited Fara-tee, and learned
from hia brothers the particulars of their
father's rescue.
They bad drawn lots to decide #hiob
of them should not as decoy 1 , while the
others scaled the walla of the fort. The
dangerous duty fell to the yonhgest
brother, and he had indignantly ret used
to yield it to either of broth
ers.-
1 entered a sedan- chair and waif con
veyed to Snng-Seen's house. In the re*
caption room I found the venerable fath-
He was surrounded by a number of
his friends, who were proud that their
village should bite been the birth place
of such a son as Bung-W*fig.
Had I not thoroughly uudefstood the
Chinese ehartwfcr, I sßbr.M hafe been
astonished at the couduet of the Chiua -
man when lie was told 1 the hnt words ot
bis heroic boy. His Woe gaVe no iodi-,
cation of the terrible grief he felt.-
Boeing gravely he thanked me for
bringirg to him the body of bin child;
and HIBO for the visit I had made him
when he was a prisoner. After (his he
received the congratulations oT the as
sembly and Wen retired) leaving the vis
itors to tftke tlreir departure.
As soon as the crowd had left, Sung-
Seeu re-eutered the a|mrtinent, and in a
tremulous voice requested rn'e to follow
him. v
With his *otiß accompanying us at a
respectful distance, lie led the way across
the hebis of lice, then just developing
their iii-st green leaves, and conducted us
to a grove of trees upon a knoll, in the
side ot which was built a horseshoe all ap
ed touib.
Up to that time »:e had restrained all
emotion; but as he |>ointed to the grave,
tears rolled down liis cheeks. 'My boy
sleeps there,' he said; and covering his
face with both handn, he sank, sobbing,
upon the nmrble slab. v
According to the cilstom of the coun«
try* I decorated the tomb with boughs
of the beautiful poach blossom, which in
Cliina signifies remembrance, and thus
paid my last tribute of respect to Sung-
Wang, who died a taartyr to filial devo
tion.

suredly secured thp fulfilment of the
promise of the fifth commandment—

There are some meb in Detroit who do
not lose their presence of mind when
confronted witn startling political news.
One of thin class, an even going, honest
uiinded elector, was mysteriously ap
proached the other day by an 'unknown'
who carefully locked the office door and
whispered:
'I have been deputized to wait on you
and say that the boys ate talking you up
as a Congressional candidate.'
•Yes.'
'You are kqown to be honest and re
liable, and if you are nominated you will
carry tha masses."
*Pbrhaps.'
'All you've got to do is to keep still,'
cautioned the unknown. 'Just let us
work this boom for you. You are our
man. You have our'respect and confi
dence. Mum's the word—we'll fix things.
You'll except?'
I guess so.'
You are in the hands of four
friends. Don't say a word!'
The unknown left the office on tiptoe,
but in ten minutes he returned, And then
oarelessly observed: - *
'Oil 1 by the way, I'm $4 short on a
little bill to-day. If you could spare it,
I'd be ever so much obliged, and I'd re*
turu it on Saturday.'
•filayP replied the citißen in a Wbie->
per, as he beckoned the other to the
door—'all you're got to do ia to keep
still] You are in the hands of your
friends! Don't ttv ft toord! Let nie fix
this boom for youl'
He shoved the unknown gently out,
locked the door and went back to his
desk rtith the firm conviction that somC
body else would be tendered the nomina
tion.

on the heart of the child, that alter years
