A TALK WITH A liniDHIST WIIEST MONGOL MIHACLES IN SAN FRANCISCO. Thero nro fow cities on tho faco of tho clobo, says tho San Francisco Chronicle, whioh can confess such cosmopolitan liberality as San Francis co in tho matter of religion. Russian and Greek Catholicism; Judaism, Ro man Catholicism, Frcsbytcrianism, Episcopalianism, Methodism, Lutheran- ism, Brahmism, eclecticism, ngnostio- lam and atheism, theso and other forms of religion or irrelicion arc represented. And among all this host of various "isms,'' Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoutsm claim at least 80,000 votaries. That tho Mongolian hordo in our midst professing theso forms of belief nro atroncly attached to their pagan oreeds is simply proved by tho fact that out of a population of 30,000 Celestials only 115 liavo been converted to Chris tianity by tho united efforts of Chris tian ministers durinr' a period of 17 years, and this is not including back sliders. And yet thero is nothing so attractive, in tho two principal religions of China, Buddhism and Taouism (for Uontucianism is rather a body of cere monies and code of morals proscribing filial piety and ancestral worship than a form of religion), to iuduco them to adhcro with such tenacity to such a larrago ot superstition and ceremonial observance. Unddnism is merely a complex form of tho dogma of tho transmigration of souls, admitting. however, a heaven, or nirvana, of com- ploto rest, and a hell, whero tho wicked aro tortured. Tho imperfect mortal is gradually purified by being reproduced in a higher or lower stato of existence, until, having passed through all the differont stages of perfection, ho is reapy for celestial bliss. Taouism is a modified form of rationalism, and num bers but fow votaries among tho Mon golians. Almost all the celestials in tho city are Buddhists, thero being comparatively few Taouists. Theso two religions, however, aro so insep arably intermingled and mixed up, 'laouist deities often elbowing Budd hist goods in the same temple, who, in their turn, stand cheek-by-jowl with Buddhist saints, that it is diflicult to draw any hard-and-fast lino. Confuo ianism permeates both religions. For mcrly there wero no priests of any Chinese sect in Chinatown. Now thero aro four Buddhist priestB who may readily bo distinguished by their cleanly-shaven heads, andsovou Taouist priests, and threo or four Nam-rao- loos, a class of ecclesiastical pariahs who attend solely to tho rites connected with Mongolian obsequies. Neither Buddhist or Taouist can be distin guished in tho street by their attire fri... n.i:n... im. :.. ii i. .i Alum uiuuiiti j uiiicar, tuuuM lliu uci tmonial costume of both classes is ex tremely lich; while tho Taouists when officiating at any rites, fasten their hair into a knot with a wooden comb, re scrabling tho back of a tortoiso. Thero is now in the Chinese quarter a thoroughly representative Buddhist priest. Kock Leung is the archabbot ot the Wall Jiani Tzoo, a monastery near Canton, for both Taouist and Buddhist sects strongly rtsemblo Ro man Catholics in that they have not only monkH, nuns, abbots, monasteries. nunneries, but even holy water, rosar ies, invocation ot saints, etc. It was suggested to the writer that a most in terislmg interview could bo obtained with tlio Mongolian dignitarv. Ac cordially, accompanied by a friend who thoroughly understood tho Chi Micso langimge, tho reporter visited tho nrcnai'imt tit mo uiug storo ot Hour xen limig, whero ho makes his head quartern. The friend's knowledge of tho language was an open sesame to tho Chineso heart. Tho visitors wero courteously received and directed to an upper chamber, whero tho archab bot, assisted by Ins uncle, was holding a lovco of invalid patients. Tho Chi neso prelate was discovered in a joung man six feel high, certainly not inoru man iniriy yoars ot age, who, graeo fully waiving thu Caucasian gw Ms to a citair, Dogged them ti bu m-alu On his eloxely-shaven bkull he wore a solt bliic.K HcnU can, ntrongly Micuest ivo (if the Catholio biretta, while his nltito consisted of a long, gray robe of some cotton fabric crossed over tho brenxt, with n linen nib uiiderneath and bound round tho waist by a girdle resembling a bishop's sash. It may uo stated mat isiiuclinst priests aro Miipposfii only to llvo on vegetables. mid nro fin hidden by the tenets of their creed to wear any fabrio woven of tho hair nl annuals. 'You nro tho archabbot of a lore Chineso monastery?" queried tho in torproter. 'I would not dare toacknowledgo to he hoiid of our community, AVo aro nil niuil, was the reply, given in quiet il. pncalory tone, which imtnedi iitely suggtslod to tho mind the ikrvua Nervorum JJei of tho Roman pontiff. 'Tho reason I have como here,'' con tinned he, in response to further quories. "Hearing thero was a great deal oi sicknet-s over hero 1 came to euro il. Y( s, I am n skilled physician but 1 ask no pay tor my corviccs. J glvo them gratuitously to tho poor. Tho rich, undoubtedly, when cured mako mo presentations of money, but this I receivo only to give to tho poor again, l came iiero to uo as much good as I could, and I bear no enmity to white men. Wo aro all alike, all urolhcis. i bear nothing but good will to nil men, whethor they bo white or black, Chinese or Caucasian." "Yes, responded ho In answer to an interrogatory, "if any ono cimo hero, whotnor whito man or uiinose, i wouui givo my services willingly nnd gratu itously." in answer to a question m to witciti er ho went out much, ho stntod that ho did not assoclato with tho outer world oxcept whero it was necessary to re lievo casos of great distress. "Christ," continued he, in responso to question as to what ho thought of tho founder of Christianity, "I placo on a lovel with Buddha, nnd regard him as nn equally groat prophet. AVo havo images of him sido by Bido with thoso of Buddha In our own temples. As for thoso who worship the cross they nro in reality disciples of Fut Kali. Aftor all," continued ho, "wo nro all striving for tho snmo end, mid nil re ligions I regard m having somo clo mont of good, though naturally I con sider my own creed tho most porfeot. No; nnything that benofits tho human raco I recognize as good, but tho cs Bontinl thing is to havo a pure heart, nnd to do as much good to your fellow beings as possible.1' "What do you think ot xnotnsm "Tah-Kah is morely another form of Buddhism, or Fut Kali: Confucianism is for literary men," was tho rejoinder given with nn air of great grata and dignity. "And what do you think ot joss houses!" "I do not boliovo in them. ' Tho archabbot also impaired much information about tho nirvana, or heaven, of the Buddhists, explained tho Btato of Buddha past, present and future, and dcyoloped a number ot cu rious Chineso medical theories, assert ing among other things that thero wore threo hundred pulses in tho hu man body. The wholo manner of tho Mongolian was oxcessively dignified and refined, giving ono tho impression of a rccluso who had entirely removed himself from tho caros of this world. Ho added that though tho archabbot was elected for a period of two years, this rulo was abrogated in his case. Though two years away, ho still re tained tho position, a deputy appointed by him acting as his vicegerent, lie would most probably soon return, as ho was only hero on a visit to his un cle, and reascend tho abbatioal throne, but ho did not know whether ho would ever como back. Kock Loung is ono of tho three chiefs of tho Buddhist creed in Canton. During tho interview ho occasionally drew a whitf ot tobac co from a hoavily plated Chinese nick el pipe, and admitted in tho course of the conversation that ho sometimes in dulged in opium. This is tho poetic and uicturosauc side of Chineso religions, but go into ono of tho numerous joss-houses and ono will sco tho unattractivo and un reasoning Bido of paganism in tho blindest superstition and grossest idola try which havo ever greeted Christian eyes, which have been too frequently described to demand repetition. Tho kow-tow ceremony, as witnessed by tho reporter ono day recently at a tcmplo on Waverly place, will bear descrip tion. Tho guardian of tho temple was just sounding a barrel-shaped drum suspended from a wooden framework. Having evoked a few dnll, rolling sounds, ho wakened tho echoes by pulling a massive bronzo bell banging underneath. Then taking tho sticks of incense, ho placed a mat on tho floor bcsido each idol, on which ho knelt, first bowing down with hands joined, and then raising them above his head. Ho then performed the kow tow, which consists ot knocking tho head against tho noor six times beforo minor idols and nino times beforo major gods with great rapidity and violence. Tho Mongolian devotee fulfills his religious task with no half-hearted zeal, making the lloor vibrato again as bo introduces his head to it. Tho thought would naturally occur that this would bo rather trying even to an opium-bo-fogged Chinese cerebrum; and passing near tho worshiper as ho roso from his task, it was noticed that ho had on the top of his head a bulging protuberanco as largo as an averago fist tho result of frequeut and vigorous kow-towings. This must havo become perfectly cal lous, as in responso to a query on part ing too custodian remarked that the frequent bumping was tho cause of no pain or unpleasantness. It will bo seen that a Chineso priest's position is not a sinecure and that ho well earns his salary. The term curator has been used advisedly, for thero are no priests attached to tho joss-houses in this city Of tho eight or nino Chinese temples tho majority are owned and connected with ono of tho guilds of Six compa nies, 'vlnlt few aro run as matters of private speculation by privalo individ uals. Dr. Li Bo Tai, for instance, has largo interest in one. Tho ioss- houscs which nro attached to a guild or company form part of tho com pany's buildings, and nro farmed out every two years to tho highest bidder by the company. Tenders aro called for, and tho lucky Mongol who can give tho highest sum for the good-will gets tho contract. Tho servant of tho gods, it may bo readily imagined, is frequently "n very illiterato man. Though not a consecrated priest, ho is bound to know something of priest craft, Buddhist rubrics, and Confucian ceremonial. Ho is expected to keep tho tcmplo and its surroundings in re pair during his term of oflico. beinir enabled by tho offerings nnd sales of incense, candles, etc., to recoup himself lor ir.s outlay and reap eontmlci able profit.

His birthday was celebrated about a month ago with a pomp and solemnity unusual in Mmi- goiiati annuls, il appears that somo mrmbeis of tho Dan Sail Fung thea tre, when worshiping at the shrine of tho god in the Kong Chow Asylum, received nu oracular response through tho priest that ho not alone permitted. but ho counselod thorn to postpone their performance on tho 0th of June. In accordance with this permission, they deferred their porformouce, nnd in (ts stead resolved to havo a feast on tho stage to feto tho joss for tho success fill season thoy had had. That night tho ailjncenl restaurant, tho Bnh bun low, was nurned down, ana tlio men tro only separated from it by an alley way, nairowly escaped a similar fate. In recognition of the providential cs capoof so many Mongols from n certain death from panio and crushing an cs capo which thoy nttribnto solely to tho tutelary caro tho ax companies ro solvod to astonish his godship by tho festivities thoy prepared In his honor. It will bo thus seen that tho Ghincso enjoy their miracles and supernatural ovents not lea than Clnistians. A more wonderful phase of miraculous Interposition yet remains to bo told. Just beforo silting down to tho feast prepared by tho actors a boy attached to tho theatre, while praying at n pri vate shrine, In honor of tho god of theatricals, noticed nn apparition clad In n long red robe, and regarding it as a warning refused to participate in tho banquet. Twenty minutes aftor tho conflagration burst out. Kwan Tai, or Kwan Kung, as ho is genornlly called, said tho courteous president of tho Kong Chow Company to tho reporter, "is now ngod of tho first order, having been proniotod to the samo rank as Confucius by thoEtnporor, Hlen-Fung, for having" assisted tho imperial foices to dofeat tho rebels at Nankin In 18.-).',. "Who was ho T Kwan Tai was n great Chinese general, who lived about three hundred years beforo Christ. Nothing was heard about him until thirteen centuries after his death, when suddonly all tho salt wells in tho pro vince of Shan-Si beoamo dried up. Tho Emporor Chin Tsung applied to the s.o s.e, or archabbot, of Tnouistn, who informed him that the evaporation had been caused by the machinations of tin evil spirit, and recommended him to havo recourso of Kwan Tai, who now ruled in tho realm of spirits. Tho Emperor accordingly wrote a com munication concerning his interview with tho archabbot and then burnt jt in tho tlamcs ot a sacred fire, so that it may bo convoyed to Kwnu Tai. Soou afterward tho God appeared in tho midhcavons, riding a red colored charger, nnd declared as soon as tho tcmplo was erected in his honor tho Emperor's petition would bo granted. This was accordingly done, and tlio last stono had hardly boon put np into ita placo beforo tho salt wells com menced again to flow." Tho Chineso havo no Sundays or Sabbath observ ance liko Christians, but thoy havo en revanche frequent festivals and birth days of their gods and goddesses. Though polytheisls, they beliove thero is ono god "nbovo all, whom they eall Sheung Tai, and who, though wor shiped by tho masses, is adored and prayed to onco every year by tho cc cstial emperor.

Tho horse, kept, as ho is, when not at work, undor cover is far moro dclicato than thoso aiiimals whioh aro turned out to pasture and consequent ly requires much moro careful atten tion. Tho following is from a Scotch agricultural journal : When convenient, horses should bo fed at short rather than lontr intervals. This is an obvious indication, for tho small size of tho stomtch precludes the norso irom rapidly injestiiig a quantity of food snflicient to servo him for a long period. This applies with even greater forco to watering. It is a very common practice to water horses only 3 times a day, tho water being given uy somo iietoro eating and by others afterward. Whatever of theso plans is ndoptcd, tho system is bad ; but it is worse when tho latter method is adopt- od. For when the horse, with his small stomach already filled with food, lnjcsls a largo quantity ol water, a great portion of the food must bo washed on into tlio intestine beforo tho gastric juice has had time to act on it. And if it bo the caso that gastrio juico is tormcd even in tho lasting stomach, then watering before meals must wash away this juice into tfco intestine whero it is of no serviee. Horses should therefore havo water at short intervals, and whero practicable they should havo iroo access to it in their mangers. When this is tho caso tho horso drinks frequently, but never in quantities so great as practically to wash out his stomach.

Oltcn tho shortest path between tno two villages lies through a jungle, whore, in the daytithe, tlio heat will riso to 100 under tho blazing sun of India. Tho temptation to defer tho journoy until after stinsot is, to most natives, irresistible, and in tlio tropics darkness quickly follows tho departuro of tho sun. The natives walk iu Indi an file in tho narrow-track, and a loi terer falls an easy prey to a tiger crouohing in ambush.
