In olden time, and where Christianity ha ! lif t interfere,! with it. suieldo was con sidered honorable and a s'n of eourairo. Demosthenes poisoned himself when told that Alexander's embassador had demanded the surrender of the Athenian orators. Isocrates killed himself rather than sur render to Philip of Macedn. Cato. rather than subir.it to Julius C;rsar, took his own Jife, and H'ter three time ids wounds had been clressi d tore them open and perished. Mithridates killed himself rather than sub mit tc Pompey, the conqu-Tor. Hannibal destroyed his life by poison Irotn his riupr, considering life unbearable. lA-curt,ru3 11 sui.-ide, lirutus a suicide. After tne disaster of Moscow Napoleon always carried with him 11 preparation of opium, and one niiht Ids servant heard the ex-3mperor arise, put something in a frlass and drink it, and soon after the groans iirousoall tho attendants, and it was only through utmost medical Skill ho was resuscitated from the stupor of tho opiate. Times havo changed, and yet tho Ameri can conscience needs to bo toned upon the bubject of suicide. Havo you seen a paper in the last mo ith that did not announce the passu go out of life by one's own behest? Defaulters, alarmed at the idea of exposure, quit life precipitately. Men losing larRO lortunes no out of the world because they cannot endure earthly existence. Frustrat ed affection, domestic infelicity, dyspoctie impatience, aner, remorse, envy, jealousy, destitution, misanthropy, are considered sufllcient causes for absconding from this life by Paris preen, by laudanum, by bella donna, by Othello 3 da rker, by halter, by leap Irom the abutment of a bridge, Iiy lire arms. More cases of "felo de so" in the last two years of tho world's existence. Tho evil is more and more spreading. A pulpit not long ago expressed some doubt as to whether there was really any thing wrong about quitting this life when it became disagreeable, and there are found in respectable circh s people apologetic for the crime which Paul in tho text arrested. I shall show you before I get through that euieida is the worst of ail crimes, and I shall lift a warning unmistakable. But in the early part of this sermon I wish to admit that sme of the l est Christians that havo ever lived havo committed self destruction, but always in dementia and not responsible. I have no more, doubt about their eternal lelieily than I have of the Christian who dies i his bed in the delirium of typhoid fever. While theshoek rf the catastrophe is very great, I charge all those who havo had Christian irii-nds under cerebral aberration step off tho boundaries of this life to have no doubt their happiness. The dear Lord took them right out of their dazed and fren zied siate iilo perfect safety. How Christ leeis toward the insane you may know from the kiii-i wav he treated the demoniac of (iard.sr.-i sad th child Iwnatie, and the po- tei!.-y with whieh ho hushed tho tempests either of sea or brain. tv-otiand, the Ifcnd prolific of intellectual g-uuis, had none grander than Hugh Miller, great, for seh-'jee and great for God. He e;t.ite of the ist Highland blood, and he was 11 tU-s-.-endant of Donald Koy. a man eminent ior his piety and the rare gift of second p'-.c'.it. His attainments, climbing tip as ho did from the quarry and tho wall of the nor.emasc.ii, drew iorth the astonished ad iu::a::cii ci P.i 'k'.and and Murehison, tho h.-ien; ists, and Chalmers, the theologian ajd i eld -jiuversitks spellbound while ho to'd :iii-m the story of what he had seen of God ia tbe oid sandstone. That man did more than any being that fe-lived to siiowthat the God of the hills is t!i God of tiie 15ille, and he struck his t .u.iiig fork on tin- rocks of Cromarty until bfi brought geology and theology accordant in divine worship. His two books, entitled footprint of the Creator" and the Testi mony of tho l;oc!;s." proclaimed the banns of a;j everlasting marriage between genuine S-eience and revelation. On this latter book iiu toiled day and night, through love of natur? and love of God, until ho could not sleep. Mid his brain gave way, nn 1 he was loii.nl d?ad wit a a revolver by his side, the cruel ins-trumect having Iiad two bullets one for him Rivd the other for the gunsmith who. at the coroner's inquest, was examin ing It and fail dead. Have you auy doubt of the beatification of Hugh Miller after his hot brain had ceased throbbing that winter night ia hia etudy r.t PoriobelloV Among tho mightiest of earth, among the mightiest of heaven. No one ever doubted tho piety of William Cowper, the author of those three great hymns, "Oh. For a Closer Walk With God !' "What Various Hindrances Wo Meet !" "There Is a Fountain Filled Y'itb Eloo 1" William Cowper, who shams with Isaac Watts and Charles Wesley tho chief honors of Christian hymnoiogy. In hypochondria ho resolved to take his own life an I rode to the river Thames, but found a man seated ou some goods at the very point from which ho expected to spring and rodo back to his home and that night threw himself upon his own knife, but the blade broke, anil then he hanged himself to the ceiling, but the rope parted. No wonder that when God merci fully delivered him from that awful demen tia he sat down and wrote that other hymn just us memorable Go 1 moves in a mysterious way His wonders to erfor-n. Hi? idiuits His footsteps in the sea Auj rides Ukhi tae storm. BI111 i unbelief is sure to ere And scan His work iu vam. God isliisowu interpret -r, Aud Ho will mafce t piaiu. While we make this merciful and righteous allowance in regard to those who were plunged into mental incoherence. I declare that the man who in the use of his reason, by his own act, snaps the bond between his body nnd his soul goes straight into perdi tion. Shall I prove it? Kevelation xxi., 8, 'Murderers shall have their part in tho lake which burnetii with fire and brimstone;" Kevelation xxil., 15, "Without are dogs and eoreerers and whoremongers and murder ers." You do not believe tho New Testa ment? Then perhaps you believe tho Ten Commandments, "Thou shalt not kill." Do -ou say all these passages refer to tho taking of the life of others? Then I ask yoa if you are not as resfonsible tor your own life as for tho life of o! hers? God gavo you a special trust iu your life. He ma lo you the custodian of your life as he made you the custodian of no other life. He gave you as wanons with which to defen I it two arms lo strike back assailants, two eyes to watei for invasion and a natural love of life which ought ever to be on the alert. Assassination of others is a mild crime compared with the assassination of yourself, because in tho latter case it is treachery to an especial trust, it is the surrender of a castle you were especially appointed to keep. It is treason to a natural law, and it is treason to God added to ordinary murder. To show how God in the Bible looked opon this crime I point you to the rogues' picture gallery In some parts of the Dible, the pictures of the people who havo com mitted this unnatural crime. H-rj is the headless trunk of Saul ou the walls of Bath ihan. Here is the man who chased little David ten feet in statue chasing four. Here Is tho man who consulted a clairvoyant, witch of Endor. Hero is n man who, whipped in battle, instead of surrendering his sworl with dignity, ask his servant to slay him, and when tho servant declines then the giant plants the hilt of the sword in the earth, the sharp point sticking upward, anl he throws his body on it and expires, the coward, the suicide ! Here is Ahithophel, tho Maehiavelli of olden times, betraying his best friend, David, in order that he may be come prime minister of Absalom and joining that fellow in his attempt at parricide. Not getting what be wantej by change of politics he takes a short cut out of a dlsgracod lifo into tho suicide's eternity. Thero ho is, the ingrate ! Hero is Ablmelech practically a suicide, ne is with an army bombarding a tower, when n woman in the tower taku3 a grind stone from its place an 1 drops It upon his head, and with what lifo ho has left in a cracked skull he commands his armor bearer, "Draw thy sword and slay me, lest men say n woman slew me." There is his post mortem photograph in the book of Samuel. But the hero of this group is Judas Iseariot. Dr. Donne says he was a martyr, nnd we have in our day apologists for him. And what won der in this day when we havo a book reveal ing Aaron Burr ns a pattern of virtue, an 1 in this day when we uncover a statuo to George Sand as tho benefactress of litera ture, and in this day when there are be trayals of Christ on tho part of some of His pretended apostles a betrayal so black it makes tho inlamyof Judas Iseariot white ! Y :t this man by his own hand hung up for the execration of all the ages, Judas Iseariot. All the good men nnd women of tho Bible left to God the decision of their earthly ter minus, and they could havo said with Job, who had a right to commit suicide if auy man ever had what with his destroyed property, nnd his body all aflame with insuf ferable carbuncles, and everything gone from his homo except the chief curse of it a pestiferous wife and four garrulous peo ple pelting him with comfortless talk while he sits ou a heap of ashes scratching his scabs with a piece of broken pottery, yet crying out in triumph, "All tho days of my appointed time will I wait till my change come." Notwithstanding tho Bible is against this evil and the aversion which it creates by tho loathsome and ghastly spectacle of thos-i who havo hurled themselves out of life, tind notwithstanding Christ ianity is against it and the argu ments and tho useful lives and tho illustrious deaths of its disciples, it is a fact alarming ly patent that suicide is on tho increase. What is tho cause? I charge upon infidelity nnd agnosticism this whole thing. If thero be no hereafter, or if that hereafter be bliss ful without referenco to how we live and how wo die, why not move back tho folding doors between this world and the next? And when our existence hero becomes troublesome wiiy not pass right over into Elysium? Put this down among your most solemn reflections and consider It after you go to your homes there has never been a case of suicide where tho operator was not either demented, au l therefore irresponsible, or an intldol. I challenge all tho ages, and I challenge tho who'o universe. There never has been a case of self destruction while in full appre ciation of his immortality and of tho fact that that immortality would bo giorious or wretched according as ho accepted Jesus Christ or rejected Him. You say it is business trouble, or you pay it 1s electrical currents, or it is this, or it is that, or it is the other thing. Why not go clear back, my friend, and acknowledge that in every case it is the abdication of reason or tue teaching of infidelity which practically says, "If yoa don't like this life, get out of it, and you will land either in annihilation, where there are no notes to pay, no persecu tions to suffer, no gout to torment, or you will land where thero will bo everything glorious and nothing to pay for it." Infideli ty always has been apologetic for self immo lation. After Tom Paine's "Ago of Reason" was published and widely read there was a marked incrense of self-slaughter. Rousseau, Voltaire, Gibbon, Montaigno, under certain circumstances, were apolo getic for self immolation. Infidelity puts up no bar to people's rushing out lroui this world Into the next. They teach us it does not make any difference how you live hero or go out of this world, you will laud either in an oblivious nowhere or a glorious some where. And infidelity holds tho upper end of the roDO for the suicide, and aims tho pistol with which a man blows his brains out, and mixes the strychnine for tho last swallow. If infidelity could carry tho day aud persuade tho majority of people that it does not made any difference how you go out of the world you will lan 1 safely, tho rivers would be so full of corpses tho ferry boats would bo impeded in their progress, and tho crack ot a suicide's pistol would be no more alarming than the rumble of a street car. Ah, Infidelity, stand up and tako thy sen tence ! In the presence of God and angels nnd men, stand up, thou monster, thy lip blasted with blasphemy, thy cheek scarred with lust, thy breath foul with tho corrup tion of the ages! Stand up, satyr, filthy goat, buzzard of tho nations, leper of the centuries ! Stand up, thou monster infidel ity, part man, part panther, part reptile, part dragon, stand up and take thy sentence! Thy hand is red with tho blood in whicii thou hast washed, thy feet crimson with the human gore through which thou hast waded. Stand up nnd take thy sentence ! Down with thee to tho pit nnd sup on tho so'js anl groans of families thou hast blasted, aud roll on tho bed of knives whicii thou hast sharp cued for others, and let thy music be tne everlasting miserere of thosj whom thou hast damned ! 1 brand tho forehea I of luli delity with fill the crimes of self immoiafou lor the last cjnlury on tho p.irt of those who had their reason. My friends, if ever your life through its abrasiojs and its molestations should s.em to be unbearable, and you are tempted to quit it by your own behest, do not considei yourselves as worse than others. Christ Himself was tempted to cast Himself from the roof of the temple, but as He resisted so resist ye. Christ came to medicine all our wounds. In your trouble I prescribe life in stead of death. People who havo had it worse than you will ever have it havo gone songful on their way. Remember that God keeps tho chronology of your life with as much precision as Ho keeps the chronology Of nations. Why was it at midnight, just at midnight, tho destroying angel struck tho blow that set the Israelites free from bondage? The 430 years were up at 12 o'clock that night. The 430 years were not up at 11, and 1 o'clock would have been tardy and too late. The 430 years were up at 12 o'clock, and the de stroying angel strucic the blow, and Israel was free. And God knows just the hour when it is time to lead you up from earthly bondage. By bis grace make not the worst of things, but the best of them. If you must take the pills, do not chow them. Your ever lasting rewards will accord with your earthly perturbations, just as Calus gave to Agrippa a chain of gold as heavy as had been his ?hain of iron. For your asking you may have the same grace that was elven to tho Italian martyr, Algerius, who, down in the darkest of dungeons, dated his letter from "elm delectable orchard of the Leonine pris on There is a sorrowless world, nnd it is so radiant that the noonday sun is only th lowest doorstep, and tho aurora that lights up our Dortbern heavens, confounding as tronomers as to what it can be, is the wav ing of the banners of the procession come to take the conquerors home ircm church militant to church triumphant, and you and I have 10,000 reasons for wanting to go there, but we will never get there either by self immolation or impenitency. All our sins slain by the Christ who came to do that thing, wo want to go in at ju?t the time divinely arranged, and from a couch divine ly spread, and then tho clang of the sepul chral gates behind us will be overpowered by the clang of tho opening of the solid pearl before us. O God, wnatever others may choose, give me a Christian's life, a Christian's dea.h, a Christian's burial, a Christian's immortality ! Fascinating Woman in Politics. Miss Emma F. Bates, Republican candi date for Superintendent of Schools in North Dakota, has turned a formidable rival into an advocate by promising to marry him if he is elected TARIFF BILL IS PASSED. HOUSE ACCEPTED THE SEN ATE AMENDMENTS. Action of the Democratic Caucus Speaker Crisp's Motion to Recede Adopted Separate Bills Passed Putting Sugar, Iron Ore, Coal and I5arbed Wire on the Free List. At a caucus of House "Democrats in the Capitol at Washington it was decided by an overwhelming vote to accept the Senate tariff biil. A statement was made by Chairman Wilson to the effect substantially that there was no prospect for tariff legislation unless the Senate bill were adopted. The motion to accept was made by Speaker Crisp and the resolution was adopted by a vote of 113 to 28. There was no division on tne vote to pnss separate bills, placing coal, sugar, iron ore and barbed wire on the free list. Mr. Holman, Chairman of the caucus, took the chair. When the roll call (which showed that 153 members were present") was com pleted a hush of expectancy fell upon the caucus. Mr. Wilson (Chairman of the Ways nnd Means Committee)took the floor. Although outwardly calm and cool, he was manifestly laboring under deep emotion. His speech for tho first five minutes was general in character nnd contained no speciflo points. It was devoted in the beginning to an ex planation of tho embarrassments under which tho House onferees had labored. He said that the representatives of the House had gone into tho conferences with a desire of faithfully representing the wishes of their colleagues. That they had failed to reach a satisfactory conclusion a conclusion hon orable aliko to tho House and to the Demo cratic party was not their fault. Mr. Wilson referred to the proposition made to the House conferees by their Sena torial associates to accept free sugar. This proposition, ho said, was rejected, inasmuch as the representatives of the House had as certained that a compact existed iu the Sen ate to defeat tariff legislation or postpone its consideration until next December if free sugar were made a part of the conference report. Ho turned at this point and called upon his associates, Messrs. Montgomery, Breckinridge, McMillan and Turner, to sub stantiate this statement. Mr. McMillan immediately arose and said that from the beginning of the conference they had been given to understand from day to day that any displacement of the Senate votes on sugar, coal and iron ore would load to absolute defeat, or, at least, the postpone ment of the bill. Mr. Wilson stated substantially that there was no prospect for tariff legislation unless the Senate bill was adopted. When Mr. Wilson had finished Speaker Crisp arose and was greeted with applause. He began by saying that the House must tako the Senate bill. While tho Senate bill must bo adopted, the House would make a determined effort for free sugar. Ho elabor ated his statement that the Senate bill must bo accepted or there would bo no tariff legis lation at this session ; and his declaration that tho House of Representatives had used every honorable and fair means to secure the passage of their bill without avail was vigorously applauded. Speaker Crisp closed his brief speech, by offering a resolution that the House recode from its position and accept the Senate bill. The resolution also included a provision placing barbed wire, sugar, coal and iron ore on the free list by a series of separate bills to bo presented at once in the nouso. Bourke Oockran, of New York, then took the floor in opposition to the resolution. Mr. Cockran contended that he, as yet, had no information which would lead him to be lieve that the House bill could not be adopted. Turning toward Mr. Wilson he challenged the gentleman to give the names of the four Senators who stood in the way of an agree ment. He did this twice, but Mr. Wilson re mained silent. A vote on ordering tho previous question on Mr. Crisp's resolution was then taken, and resulted in 102 yeas to 21 nays. After tho predous question had been ordered which was considered equivalent to the adoption of the resolution the Louisiana members were given ten minutes to explain their position. Mr. Robertson, speaking for the delegation, said that the sugar growers had made their contracts for the current fiscal year, and tuat any action by Congress abol ishing tho bounty for tho next twelve months would work a severe injury to thoir interests. On tho motion to accept the Senato bill the vote resulted : Ayes, 113 ; nays, 28. Among those voting in the negative were Messrs. Robertson, Davey, Meyer and Price, of Louisiana ; Tarsney, of Missouri ; Warner, Straus, Tracey, Cookran, Covert and Dun phy, of New York ; Kllgore, of Toxas ; Dock ery, of Missouri ; Cooper, of Indiana, and McKaig, Rayner, Rusk and Talbot, ol Mary land. On the motion to pass separate bills plac ing sugar, coal, iron oro and barbed wire on tho free list, thero was no division. Then a resolution.offored by Mr. Tucker, of Virginia, was adopted, thanking the Hou3e conferoos for their fight for the nouso bill. Having completed the work of the caucus, the moot ing was adjoined sine die. The Bill Passes tho House. A special dispatch to the Now York Herald describes the scenes in the House of Repre sentatives while the Tariff bill was on its passage as follows : For once during this long tariff agitation the expected has happened. The House caucus agreed upon the Senate bill, the bill was passed six hours later, and the senar- site bills were rushod through before ad journment putting sugar, iron ore, coal and barbed wire on tho free list. This was not accomplished without a dis play of managerial vigor, parliamentary skill and partisan courage astonishing even to those who participated in the proceed ings. The House wing of the Capitol was a scene of excitement from early morning, when the Democratic caucus met, to a late hour at night, when the last "pop gun" bill, amid the yells of the Democratic, majority, placed sugar on the free list. The galleries were packed with eager spectators all day, and when the hour of ad journment was reached at twenty-five min utes after 10 o'clock, p. m., few vacant seats were visible in the vast auditorium. On tho floor legislative pandemonium reigned all day. Not in years has the House of Representatives been the theatre of such continuous uproar and tumult. It was a day of cheers and jeers, of speeches and yells, roll calls and shouts of laughter and up plause. To Mr. Turner, of Georgia, fell the task of explanation and defence, and to Mr. Reed, of Maine, the leading of the assault upon the resolution giving the Tariff bill the right of way. After Mr. Turner had spoken in favor of the resolution it was passed by 176 yeas to 97 nays. The Democrats who voted against their party on this proposition were Messrs. Covert, New York ; Davey, Louisi ana ; Gorman, Michigan; Johnson, Ohio; Meyer, Trice and Robertson, Louisiana, and Warner, New York. Mr. Cockran did not vote. Upon the announcement of the vote Chair man Wilson immediately submitted in writ ing the motion receding from the disagree ment in the Senate amendments and concur ring in them, which would pass the bill. Mr. Wilson made an explana tory speech, and was followed by Mr. Reed, who taunted tho House conferees nt their inability to cope with the representa tives of the Senate. He said they would find that they were mere babes in the wood, and that they had been left there by their uncle in the White House. Mr. McMillan, of Ten nessee, defended the bill.

Two Per Cent. Tax on All Incomes Kxeeedlng 94000 Who Will Have to Pay and Who Will Be Kx empt Special Kxemptloti for Far liters The Corporation Tax. As explained by the New York 11 -r il l. the income tax addition to the new Tariff bill provides that lrom an 1 after January 1, 1395, and uutil Jauuary 1. l'.O'.), every elti-fc.-n of the Unite 1 States, whether residing at homo or abroad, and ev.-ry person not a citizen resldin in the United States, who has an in 'one in excess of 400() per year, shall paya tax of two per ecu', on all hi in come in excess of $.1011. All tho- who have Incomes of not more than $1000 wdl escape this taxation, unless pirtof all the incomes are derived from investment in the stocks of corporations from the divl-leii.N which the tax will be deducted b-Toro t ln-v ara paid. The taxed cl.isa will consist ot all those whose incomes are more than $4000. with few exceptions, which will be not- d In some quarters there is son question as to what is meant by the 40'.M exempt ion . the Ilea prevails that a man with an in. -o n ' of more than $4000 would lo taxed ou his total income. Tiiis is not a fact. It Is only the excess of $4,)i)0 that will be tax d. For instance, a man having an income of $5 KK) will not pay tax upon the whole ..1)0i), l.ut only upon the $ltH0 in excess of $ti).0. The ouly persons who are exempted from the payment of this tax are tho officers of States, counties aul municipalities, ih salaries which they receive not being include 1 in in timating their incomes for the purpose oi taxation. Tho Governor of the State of New York, who receives a salary of $10. 000 an I who resides in a mansion provide 1 by the State, wilt not be taxed a cent on his salary, but the bank cashier or businessman, whose income is in excess of $4000 a year and who must provide his own home, will pay tw per cent, of all his Income more than $ I VI I into the Treasury of the United State. The directions in tho bill for estimating individual incomes are very minute, au l are made to cover the incomes from every con ecivalile source, 'XC"pt the interest on bou Is of the United States, tho principal an I inter est of which are by the law of their issu tne exempt from all Fed-T.il taxation. There is one exemption which relieves the farm-T from including in his income the value ol his farm products consumed by his lamlly. In estimating incomes, all personal prop erty, acquired by gift or inheritance, is to he included, as are the profits realized within the year from sales of real estate, purchased within two years previous to the closu of the year for which the income is estimated. In estimating incomes, the net expenses of car rying ou any business or profession are to bo deducted. These expenses are to include interest, taxes, losses of nil kinds, not com pensated for by insurance or otherwise, an I bad debts, but no deduction is to be made on account of permanent improvements or bet terments made to increase the valueof prop erty. As the two per cent, tax levio 1 on the in comes of corporations is to be paid by the corporations. In estimating inllvliual in comes all roeuipta from such sources aro to bo doduotod. Whilo no ono having nn income of lessthan $4000 will bo taxed, tho law will compel every person having an income of more than $3500 to mako a return of his Income to tii" Collector of Internal Revenue In his disfri t, ami if any person having a taxable income neglects or refuses to make a return for such income, or makes a wilfully fraudulent re turn, the Collector of internal Revenue for his district is to make out a return accord ing to the best information he can obtain by the examination of such person, or from any other evidence, and add fifty per cent, as a penalty to tho amount he thinks to be duo. In the bill as it passed the House the in ternal revenue collectors had power to ex amine private books aud accounts, but that feature was stricken out in tho Senate. The taxes on imomos are to be payable on or be fore July 1 of each year forthe calendar year preceding, with a penalty of five per cent, and interest at the rate of one per cent, per month upon such tax for failure to pay ou the date prescribed. The provisions in re gard to the taxations of ttie profits or in comes of corporations are very lengthy and complicated. The provisions as to exemp tions and as to inetho Is of making returns are as nearly as possible the same as those relating to tho Incomes of individuals. The bill exempts tho incomes of States, counties, municipalities : of organizations conducted solely tor charitable, religious oi educational purposes, including fraternal beneficiary societies operating upon I he lodge system an I providing for the payment of life, sick, accident and other benefits to tholr members ; of funds and securities held by trustees for eh iritablo, relit,. ous or educational purposes, or building and loan associations which mako loins to their Btockholdeis only ;of savings banks and in stitutions which havo no shareholders or members except depositors, and no capital except deposits, which do not receive de posits to an aggregate of more than $1000 iu one year from the same depositor, which do not allow an accumulation of deposits by any one depositor exceeding $10,000, an I which divide ratable to deposits all t In- n -t earnings, and which do not possess a surplus exceeding ten per cent, of their aggregate deposits. Tho bill also exempts tho incomes of sav ings banks and Institutions compose 1 of members who do not participate in the profits, and which pay interest or dividend-, only to their depositors, and al?o s'.ich pari" of the business of auy savings bank or In stitution that is con lusted on the muluil plan solely for tho bem-nt of its depositors on such plan, and which jluill Keep a sepa rate account of such business. Tho incomes of purely mutual Imuranee companies having no capital stouk aud n shareholders are also exempted. A JAPANESE RUSE. The Naval Attacks on Wei Hal W l aud Port Arthur.

They were merely a ruse, designed to as certain the exact positions and force of the Chinese guns mounted ou '.ho fortifications there. The Chinese fleet wis away, nnd the Jap anese commander, doul-tl'-ss informed of tie-P'-i Yang's fleet's movement, probably seize I a favorable oppor'unity to find out the weak and the strong pom's of In-- forti fications at the two great Chinese inv il st i tionson opposite sides of the entr in--- u. the great Gulf of iV-Che--f.c . At the further end of that gulf are the l .iku fort-, which gu ird the mouth of the p.-i If or North River, leading to Ti.-n-Tsin, whTe l.i Hung Chang resides, and Pekln, tin; seat of the .-mpire. There were twenty-six vessels in the Jap anese squadron. The warships drew up ia line of battle off the port of W.-i-H ti-W- i an 1 opened fir-.
