Of nil the remarkable events recorded in history, that of the present rebellion inj Chinn, if the accounts fromSthat country | cpn bo relied upon, stands forth tiro most incomprehensible,'Both ns lo its cause ana aim, and the rapidity of its progress.

They huve now conquered tho largest part of tho empire, nnd aro threatening, and preparing to attack the great Northern Capitol of Pekin. If these nccounts arc true, wo repent it will bo without a para lel in the history of tho world. Chinn has undergone several revolutions; but none liko this, for none of them attempted to in terfere with tho religion of tho people.

For the Republican Messrs, Editors :—The old saying that \ a “new broom swpqfsricun,” is fully vc-1 rified in tho hiskfry ofour borough. When ; first incorporated, some wholesome ordi- J nances were passed, nnd a few for a timoj enforced, while a few of the most import ant were entirely disregarded. 1 allude to 1 the one in relation lo dogs. Why is it thut the ordinance taxing dogs is not en forced? Is it because the officials them selves might huvo it to pay ? Or is it somo other cause? It is the practice in most boroughs to tax from one to five dollurs, the owners, for each one, in proportion to size or sex.
