NEWSYLETTER lbecoivest by Jos, Cuthill, etraseele, fr Malariae. 0411/104 from hied Wahl 1 There wee a tremendous amount of loot pfiinked up ab Tien tan and some of our bluejackets made quite a little pile. 'there was a Mock brought aboard onr ebip,for whish Co1Wee aeked. it had come from Prince Teen's palace, wee studded with patio and worth three Mertes the money, but none of ne bought it, Captain Dneban of 1110 marines, an old ehipmate of our ohiel when he was on the' Revouge," showed n0 some loot Ito had got, and he had stuff to the value of 1400, 11e had a beautiful little gold repeater etudded with diamonds, and an Emperor'estate robe of which the em broidery alone was of fabulous value. He told no a lob about the war. The looting of Tien-tein wee a scandalous af• fair and reedit very little credit on any- one oonoerned. Very little or no respect was shown to the rights of non -ambit - tants or to private property, everyone jnet taking what they most fanoied. The Russians and French seemed to bate shown great cowardice and also to have behaved with ahookiug brutality, killing men, women and children, irreepootively. The Russians kept Chinamen hard at work all day oarryipg their loot for them, and then shot them at the end of the day when they had no further use. Our men were not allowed to interfere for fear of complioabione and it was veryhard at times to prevent them. In one in. stance, which our informant himself saw, a poor Chinaman was lying wounded on the ground, and one or two Frenchmen came np and started to pound his face with the butt end of their rifles till he wee a living, shapeless mass, and a couple of French officers standing by enjoying the fan. At last a blaejaoket ran up and put the poor fellow out of hie misery. Captain Dustan said the Jape showed greet pluck throughout and our own men behaved splendidly. The Germans also were very brave and tougbt wall. Al the taking of Tien -tela Captain Denali and his men advanced as far as they could, and when they could get no nearer owing to the tremendous fire, the whole of the troops were lying for four or five hours all mixed up together, taking all the shel- ter they oould, Captain Dustan was sitting is a ditch, baok to baok with a Jap, and after two or three hours under the blazing sun, he began to get a little light headed and moved uneasily. The oomrade of the Jap tottohed him on the ['boulder and pointed to the bank of the chap he was leaning against. There was a great raw wound, and the Jap had never uttered a word the whole time, some twinge when Dustan had =avail having directed his comrade's attention. Two Jap officers were talking together, one smoking a oigarette, when a shell burst in their viafmty and carried away both of his legs. He continued puffing his cigarette, finished his story and lay down dead. When the Japs were blowing up the gate at Pekin the train was laid and tired, when a Chinaman ran out and out the train and was instantly shot. A Jap then sprang forward out of the ranks and fired the tram where it had been oat, with the result that the gate was blown np and the Jap with it. The Ameri- cans do not seem to have covered them- selves with much glory, as on one owe, 'don they aobnally retired leaving their wounded on the field, and the English Marines under Captain Beatty went and fetobed them in. The Bengal Lancers, the crack native corps in India, Behaved extremely well being in touch with the enemy all the time. One charge they made against Chinese cavalry they did not leave a single man alive. I was speaking to a °hap who wee with Sey- mour's force and he said there was a little excuse for the rancour shown by the men, for on one occasion he saw a comrade of his, who had been wounded and captured, literally torn to pieces by the Ohineee. When the troops were oat. side of Pekin it was arranged that no one should make a move till 6 a. m„ so they would all start fair. Of course the Bus. gene broke their word and started at 4 a. m. to 'teal a march on the British, and the Japs, who were watching the Russians have been there yet, if the Imperlai Government had nob begun to wire for the 131. Andrew," whioh they had lent the Indian Government, and pow requir- ed themselves to take troops hauls bo l;ng• lend from Africa, 00 when elle went, they diemieaod the outer ships also. Govern. monk is paying about 17,000 a Month for ilio "St, Andrew," 14000 a month for 00 and about the acme for the other ships, Ib hall pooh about 160.000 to convey 1200 bulloeke a fortuight'e journey, not eon. sidering the extra expense of Ilttiu e,coal, le, As the 1331110ak9 are only worth 110 each in India it would hardly be worth while' bringing them book. 'Another waste of money are the hospital ships "Maine," "Oar•bhege" and "Gwallor." The "Maine" whioh had been sent from the aepe, is the expensive toy of some Amerioan ladies with more money than brains. I believe they all took a share in the fitting out, giving their praetioal advice and consequently the ship took twine as long and cost twice as much as she otherwise would have done. She is packed full of officers, (looters , eto„ who earn their money answering telegrams as the state of their health, are they coin fortable, etc , but never a patient do they see. She la alongside of us In Wel Hai y g Wei for a month and had been there three. weeks before we Dame and eventually wont to Japan for ooals and to Winter. The "Carthage" bas been of some use baking sink eoldiere down to Hong Kong, eto., but no more so than the dozens of troopers going beak empty and are there• fore used for the same purpose. The "Gwalior" ie the gift ship of the Mehra Rajah of Gwalior, who will be rewarded in some way by the British Government for his benevolence. He hired her from the B.I.S.N. Company for a very large sum, whioh would have bean far better sppent if contributed to the famine fund, She is also crowded with doctor's, and has been staying in, Hong Kong for the past mon month, and netbefore we left Hou g Kong for Calout1n, had orders to proceed to Shanghai. The British contingent were all delighted to bear a day or two ago, how the Ruseiaue for once were beaten at their own game of bluff at Shoe bai than. Hearing that the British had intended to capture these forte from the Chinese, (this seems funny consider- ing we are not supposed to be at war with °hiva,) the 'Russians having aharge of the railway, which they hoodwinked the British out off, and have made a tremen• dons mese with, sent some troops along before the British force to take posses- sion in the name of the Czar. The Brit- ish expecting a move of this kind Bent a fast torpedo destroyer, whioh arrived half an hour before the Russians tamed up. I believe it Wee quite a pautomine when the Russian General was met by the British General. The more angry the Russian got, the more polite our General became, and he went away threatening all sorts of complications. We are now well on out way back t0 Calcutta, whioh port we expect to matte on the 14th Nov. As this letter has been written at odd moments, at Hong Kong and on the journey Calcuttawards and we are a light ship and roll pretty considerably, I hope you will excuse the writing.

To the Editor of Tan Poem Dean Site—Allow me to thank you for your very time t t' le with reference timely aC 0 village,ionic h l rib of be to the prospe y appeared in TES a Posm of Mara 6th. f do trust and hope that the pointers given will interest every one in the plane, I have often thought over the sal jeot and even eaggested the some to some of our prominent baldness meu. Where is there another plane of the same size that has such an inviting, beautiful business greet 2 Yon may search the Country over and it cannot be found, Travellers and other visitors all deolare it has no equal. Beautiful for situation, it ought to be the joy of all the eurronndiog oonubry, but I am afraid it ie not. Some- thing is lacking or Brnseele would not be standing still as it has been for a num- ber of years. You, Mr, Editor, think we are on the up grade now. I hope so and that it may continue. Agreat deal might be said about the past history of Brus- sels, but let bygones be bygones, and let ne, ae one man, make te united effort to give the plane a good peen up the grade. I have faith it can be done on the linea you suggest by forming a "Look out Bannon Aeaooiation," composed of 10' or 16 of the beet men you can find. Let them be the best we can get to work on these lines, and the results in a short time will astonish the most of ns, We want au inorease of population ; we want something started that will give work, and this is one of the ablef problems this Assooiation will have to solve. We are thankful that of late we have received an addition to onr population, but though only a few it wee a difmoult task for them to find houses suitable for their accommo- dation, and today tbere is saaroely a decent house to rant in the plane. Prob• ably thio Aseooiation may be the means of having a few Moe dwellings ereoted fn the plane. We have lots of beautiful building sites which oonld be made pro- ductive and pay a good fair interest. The Railway service could be taken bold of whioh might result in something bet. ter. The pest and present servioe of the Railway is utterly bad and considering the amount of money paid all round, thousands upon thousands, it is no bet• ter than barefaoed robbery and the law of the land ought to be invoked to make them deal honestly with the people.

Tile gathering WIte marked by auasoul enthusiasm, and ormildence in the ability of the nominee to redeem the riding, Frederick Hese, who received the nomin- ation about a year ago, tendered hie resignation, and elated that owing to health be wag forced to retire from the =Met, hie physioina having advised' him Hutt it would be dangerous to undertake the fatigue of a oampaign, Eon motion of D. D, Wilsoe, of Beaforuh, and Alas, Mustard, of Stanley, the resignation of Mr. Hese was aooepted with regret, and an expression of eonddence es to his elation had be been able to continue the flattest. When n0minabione were palled for, but one name was proposed, that of AL Y. MoLsen of the Seaforth Expositor, whioh twee reoeived with great en tb esteem. Mr. McLean was nominated by Alex.

He reviewed the record of the Govern - meet, and said it was a privilege for any - ma to vote and work for salt a party and such a platform. Rev. W. J. Wad- dell, Methodist minister, was present as a delegate, and addreseed 11.5 meeting, He eulogized the Government on its splendid record and progressive polioy. He was a Prohibitionist, but did sot wieb to no a law passed without the oanotion of oeubstantial mnjority of the slater - ate, end he thought the referendum was ae fair as the most ardent Prohibitionist oould reasonably expect. Earueat Prohi- bitionist ae he le, be did not think he could ask for anything more equitable and just than the policy of the Govern- ment on thisquestion. Rev. G. H. Long, Ittethodiet minister, was also a delegate, and stated his position on the queet•iun of temperanoe and hie aonneo- tiou with the temperance convention held in South Huron raoently.
