(CONTINUED) 1 was ata loss what value to attach to this pleasing information, aad whether to make any resistance or not in the event of an attack.Falling into the Hands of Chinese, alter killing or even woundiug any of them, bus usually resulted not merely in death, but in mors omnibus crucici dus ; and they, with their abtuse nerves, are ignorant of the amount of pain whieh cat be got out of a nervous vascular European.When Wong lait, | resolved lo be guided by tha course of eveuls, but saw that my revoiver was in good order.| had gone to bed and was dozing very quieily, when two or three gingalls wera fired oll about midnight from or near thy louse ; but on going on 16 1hie rocf, 1 could lear and see nothing.The tower in which we slept had neo communication with the building below ; in order to gat! down we had to cross the roof, and descend through another tower, 10 which an old Chinese teacher and two of our coolies usually slept.\u2018These parties, | found, had belaken themselves to some safer dormitory, and moreover, the doors of this second tower were fastened below, so that it was evidently intended to leave us to settle with the Tam- shui men as best we could ourselves, | watched for soe time, leaning against the parapel, but the only sounds lo be heard were the barking of village dogs, which seemed to mdicsie that strangers were in the neigh- buurhood, and the faint sound of tha bamboo siruck by the watchman at the wai of Wong Kum Sau.Chili raw mists from the craggy mountains of the Heavenly Head swept round, obscuring all the stars, and the line of tail rambooes beside the house rusiled dolefally in the bleak wind, Even my old dog appeared allected by tlie dreariness of 1he situa- lion, and pressed against my kuee for com- panionsiip.He was the only living thing there I had to trust to; but | know that above the dark clouds, the stars were still shining with calin imellable beauty ; and though one half of the earth was steeped in darkness and the horror of night, the other smiled gladly in day and euusbine.Shall we receive good and not evil at the hand ol God.Pain is the condition vf pieasure.There is a vast torture chamber into which any of n8 may al any moment be called to enter, and with which most of us have some slight acquaintance.For sone sin of our own, or some fault of o'hers, there in Kwei shin, or here in London streets, the grim familiar of that ngnisinon may beckon us aside to undergo such mental or physical process as may be reqaired.Men go ini these lusty and joyous, bul we scarcely care to It the reddened sheet and lonk on the ghastly face and racked limba which come out.Yet were it perhaps well lo realise more closely than many people ate inclined to do the advantages of that department of nature.All 1he g'ory and loveliness of lile\u2014the intoxt- cating sense of bunyant strength, the breuth- ing of keen inountaln-air, the shock of the nerve giving vcean waves, the glow of imagination, the deep music of the wheels ol thought, the friendly inlescourse of truthfo! manly souls, the moiher-eyes (hat first bend over us with divine love and tears, the ciing- ing hands of infants that give ua sirength {rom their very feebleness, and one dear face before which our whole being thritls\u2014all these are so connecled with, and so necessarily dependent on, their dark contrasts, that tbese latter will be gladty endured, und even welcomed, by the pious spirit, It is not those who have the most, on the most easy terme, of the sunny side of life, that can appreciate and enjoy best, The solitary sunbeam which fell at the feet of the prisoner of Chillon, bronght more to him of that distant world than we find im ihe glorious runny days of suinmer, We are in the hands, nat of an enemy, but of a Friend : suflering is good ; the phantom pain will mink abashed before the steady gaze of a manly spirit and a pure mind; and death, even in ils Worst forme, is but a fiery chariot prepared lo bear the victor to higher realms.As it turned out, no assailants\u2019 made their appearance, and my patient was aflowed to depart from his particular cell.On returning to our room I found that ie had been perspir- ny treeiy, and was sunk in deep, quiet sleep, which asstred me that, when 1 was watching on the rouf, the crais of his fever had salely passed, and he would go on improving from that hour, Thus, when times appeared to be the worst, they began to mend.| wearied inyself to sleep after 1his, by writin some verres.\u2018They are not brilliant, bot Ï dare say Mr.Marlin Tupper himseil wooid not have done much better in the circum- slances : I hear the long.drawn sigh of pain, The testing on the hed in vain, The muttered words of fear, As by his spectre-haunted bed, And round kis fever-stricken head, Strange memories appears Tito tho damp and sullen ninat There breaks a sudden flash of light, As, through his gateway bars, The timid Chinaman explodes His halt-n-dozen giogall londs Against tho nsec stars, urely upon the mist-awept sod Bored powers 0i darkness are abroad, Ur in the midnight sky ; And in the night-wind, damp and chil), The prexcnae of mysterious Ib Secins slowly sweeplog by.Dark powers of evil! whether born Oi ewrth, or springing from the wortn, Decaying soul of men, Back to your gloomy prisomeaves, OF linger by Celentiak gtaves, wo Ye come uot here again, [Vor.100 rs case Fur où the bright Atlantic seas The sunshine gleams, the favouring breeze , Watts wbite-winged vessels home ; (irouped ut the prow the sailors stand, Their taces lighten as the land Gleams through the fresh'uing foau.Here, hy the old Pacifio coast, in darkness goodly ships are tossed, Till darkness tury to day ; Beneath the arid Gush of ligbt, Amid the pallor of the night, They bold their perilous way, But over ocean, mount, and lawn, There streams the rosy-coloured dawn, The golden light of heaven, Darker the clouds that o\u2019cr us lower, Aud gloomier the midnight hour, A hrighter day 18 given.Before this might, when the palient began to get butter, he had been atiende:d by an elderly [-shunk or Chinese physician, wha, with tis hood on, looked like a doctor of (he middle ages, and appeared prefernaturally wise as he fell the tour pulses and gravely shook tug head.Hin first judgment an the case Was that it was lo fo-üt, ur \u201ctoo much heat ;\u201d for the Chinese almost invariably divide diseases under that head and under to to-laung, or \u201ctoo great could.\u201d Bloodletting is not used in fevers, tor, say they, \u201ca fever is like à pot boiling: the way to cure the patieut is lo lessen the fire, and not to lose the liquid.\u201d Apparently the doctor we culled 1 was a species of homwopathist, for the strong medicties which he prescribed decidedly increased the illness, and, afier ou or two trials, were consigned to a loup-hole.Several of the remedies fashionable amon tha Chinese are of this kind, and some ot them would astonish people in Lorope.\u2014- Father Ripa mentions that, after a all fiom his horse, and when it was feared that li: brain was injured, the treatment pursued war to draw a band tightly round his head, the ends being held by two men, while a third \u201cstruck the skull vigorously with a piece of wood.\u201d This, the Father naively adds, \u201cshook my head violently, and gave me druadfui pain.Hesaid

evening.His presence there is said to have an important connec'ion with the recent visit of President Lincoln to Generals Scott and MeClellan, lt is thought that he will not take the field, but remain at the capital as military adviser of the administra- von.From the latest \\Vashington corres- | pondence of the World we learn that the government has determined upon & more rigorous prosecution of the war.No effort 1s to be spared by which a blow can be withicted upon the rebellion.It is proposed to interrogate every leading general upon his opinion of the new confiscation bill, and each will be required to carry out its provisions 80 far as they relate to them aa military commanders.In case any refuse tv do so, they will be allowed to hand in their resignations immediately.War meetings for the promotion of the recruiting service, are being held ull overthe loyatsiales, and in some places we are glad lo 'earn that the prospects are encouraging.If, however, more stringent measures be not adopted, to retsio the men with their corps at head-quarters, all the efforts that can be made to procure recruits will be to a great extent rendered nugatory.Its stated that there cannot be less than 40,000 able bodied men, scattered throughout the North, who belong, of right, to the army, and who should be made to return to their duty.The means by which these feather-bed soldiers obtain feave of absence and discharges, is thus explained by the Washington cutras- pondent of the New York Evening Post :\u2014 «The President found on his late visit to General McClellan that 70.000 of the troops to the Peninsula are now missing or absent.It 1< impossible \u20180 believe that more than 40,- 000 are dead, wounded, or sick.Gen.Me- Cleilan expressed his opinion io the President that more
