TlENTstx,June2,:f.—Two days ago a crowd
of 'Chinese, led on and encouraged by official'
mandarins and priests, made - ,aill attack on the
foreigners in the native - eityjtilling thirteen Wo
men and seven men, bkidesmt,sixty native_
Christians and sixty-four children.
. For more
-than a_year the Endhist priests,and
many of the mandarins, have been busy exeit
ing-revolt, and forming forces. with which to
drive the "foreign devils" (as they kindly call
us) from China. In January last a fierce at
tack was Made on-the. Isre,nch- and-English mis
sions at Ilangkow, on the Yangtze river, and a
number of the former were outrageensly treated,
their houses burned, and one clergyman killed.
The French Minister at once ordered the
Admiral to his aid, and with several- gun
boats, steamed up the river, where he de
smanded of the " Foutar (Governor) reparatien
.and punishment of all persons engaged, in the
disgraceful and inhuman violence. The "Fon
tat" tried to procrastinate, and attempted Chi
nese "diplomacy," but the Frenchinan was in
no mood to 'be trifled with, and was peremp
tory. Ills dethands Were complied with,
churches and missions were rebuilt, actual in
demnification made, and several of the known
participants in the affitir were beheaded. For
a time everything remained quiet.; but edu
_cacti Chinamen said openly that- hi 'a -little
time they would kill every foreigner in China.
In order to accomplish this end it is now
known that from - Nanking to Tien-Tsin a eon
certed plan of action was agreed: upon, under
the plea that foreigners were China for :the
purpose of "kidnapping young boy's and girls,"
killing them; : digging -out,-their -:eyes;—muti
lating their persons, stewing portions of their
bodies in a huge' caldron, and pabking in tin
cans; after which, they shipped them to
Europe and Americaformedicinal purposes,the
preparation being a sure panacyea for baffling.
diseases. This was the store these leaders set
afloat in order to excite the superstitious fears
effile4arreers,--coolies-tand-boatmen T and-make
their hearth brave for au attack on foreigners.
Of course such infamous reports were. known
by-the Officials i to be base liesi but, with 4t..C.641--
nienAntereSt i us, - -they -7: reneated-' the
and on the same day—June U=the sev
eral "Fontais" of all the northern provinces
caused to be posted official notices taking cogniz
ance of the rumors, and giving official- color
and sanction thereto. In every village, ham
let, fishing station and city, did these notices
appear on walls and temples, and the following
from The North China News at Shanghai, was
circulated all over the province :
[Translation.]
"Proclamation issued by Wang, Chili Mien of
" Tantfi, hi the Prefecture Of Chinkeang.
"Dated 6th June, 1870.
" - Whereas, It has been discovered by me that
a number of vicious characters are going about
in all• directions, kidnapping children and
young women,_ by stupefying them, either
through the medium of taste in something they
,give_them to eat, or of_vapor_ couveyed._in
tobacco they give theM to - sinoke, thereby ren
dering them more easy subjects for abduction,
the result of which is that they are cruelly
murdered for the sake of procuring, in the case
of males, their eye-balls, livers and testes, and
hi that Of females,
their breasts and privy parts ;
which are cut out to be ma - de up, it is-pre
sumed, into some strange drug.
"And as this is a matter for deep commisera
tion, the Chili Ilsien has taken secret and vigi
lam:measures for their apprehension, and it-is
his duty to issue this pressing notice, calling
upon all classes not to allow their wives and
children to run the risk of being kidnapped by
going out at will ; and any one who can pro
cure the conviction of one of these kidnappers
shall, without fail, receive a reward -of $lOO.
Let all obey with trembling, A necessary
notice."
The consequence of this official notice was to
cause great alarm among the lower classes, and
to intensify their bluer hatred of Europeans.
Old women related the horrible tales ; mothers
clasped their infants closer to their breasts ;
little children ran, screaming, from -the ap
proach of white men ; and each day the reports
were magnified, and the torpid blood of the
Orientals aroused to fiercer heat. The French
were more especially abhorred on account of
their prompt resentment of the first attack.
Besides, several hundreds of French priests,
professing the Catholic faith, are scattered
throughout China, speaking the language
fluently, dressim , b in native costume, and con
tenting themselves with the humblest fare.
By their zeal they have made many converts
to Christianity. At Nanking, Shanghai, Hang
how, and Tien-Tsin, have been established, by
the charity of the French nation, large mission
schools and hospitals for the nurture, educa
tion and civilization -of orphan children.
Thousands of these children have been re
claimed from the lowest haunts of the Chi
nese, and, under the tutelage of the pious
"Sisters of Mercy," by whom the missions are
managed, instructed in the tenets of Christi
anity, taught to read and write, and fitted to
teach their' •benighted countrymen the " true
faith" and au advanced civilization. The mis
sions are in charge of a Lady Superior and as
sistants, and at Tien-Tsin had been established
eight years, and had done an amount of good
second to none in China. On the fatal 21st of
June the blow fell here, and in many other
places was attempted, but, fortunately,averted.
The Ncette of the Massacre.
Your correspondent was on his return - from
a visit to,Pekin.where he had been the guest of
the lion. Mr. Low, our Minister to China, and
where he was informed that trouble would oc
cur days before it did. It was, however, es-
Aeon ed_ air: idle•tale: Tien-TSIOIS situated'On
the Peiho river, and is at the head of naviga
tion, the depot for Pekin—which is 100 miles
northeast and 170 miles from the sea. The
mouth of the river is protected by two large
forts, rendered almost impregnable by their
natural position. They are furnished with a
large number of improved guns, among which
are 20 Dablerens of the largest caliber. It
was at this point the English and French
were so severely beaten in - 1855 by Chinese
forces.
rrepnring_to Strike.
On Sunday, June II), • the mutterings
. of
trouble, heard for weeks previously, aSStirini(
hostile shape by the assembling of a large
crowd of natives under the walls of the native
city, about two miles north of the foreign set
tlement, and in the immediate vicinity of the
French seilletneut, i. e.: the Consulate, Cathe
dral, Mission and Ilospital. [ln all China it is
observable that the French almost invariably
form settlements apart from other nationalities
and as near the native cities as poSsibled All
that day the crowd indulged in fierce screams
and howls, beating of tom-toms and gongs, and
assaults of servants of Europeans, and such
native Christians as appeared on the streets,
such - unfortunates being thrashed: with long
bamboo rods, aPplicd by the leading ~ c brives,7
*bo • were applauded and eiMmiraged by several
hundreds of Chung-how's soldiers, evidently in
earnest - cooperation with the gathering assail
ants. Dr. Frazer, an English surgeon, only
escaped - personal - violence through the tleetneSs
of his horse. The French Consul, M. Folua
rder, used his best endeavors to prevent trouble,
'and made a direct appeal to Chung -how to-pre
vent any violence, by detailing a portion of his
army (which numbered several thousand) for
the protection ofida countrymen. Chung-how
said- that, he-would-certainly-Tprotect—himFamt
sent two"glass-buttoned Mandat:ins " (a tank
about the same as a policeman), who were
jeered at by the people and advert away.
On_tbe succeeding day, Monday, June 20,
the turnult contluued ; the crowd being largely,
augnientedi , and numbering several thousand;
a French padre wit.Tcatight, and received 630
blows of ale • bastinado, The booting/ a lnd

'The ' ,6 bravde demanded of the Sisters that the
children be:ttirned into the street at once, 'and
that they forthWith . leave the settlement. They
threw missiles at, the Alission, used the most
disgracefullaninige - v - and heaped all poSsltile
insult on tbe devoted ladies. They also in
stilted every foreigner who was abroad
on the river Or in the city, and in
the afternoon grew so violent that M. Fentanier
again sought His Excellency Cbungbow, and
'demanded of him protection. "Class-button
klandarins'! were. again sent, but the soldiers,
armed, with,.breechrloading. rides, were sta : .
boned to protect the shops of native merchants -
from violence when the :mob Should beeolue
excited too greatly. The Sisters with barred
doors, withstood the demands of the" crowdi
releasing all the children who desired to, leave;
but of the 184, only IS consented to leave their
kind friends and teachers, and so the Sisters
resolved to protect the little' ones, and the
French . Consul nobly sustained his: country
women in their jtist resolve. Late In. the even
ing the. Crowd dispersed, after having informed
the Consul that on the morrow they certainly
would kill every foreigner in the city.
That night two of the Sisters attempted to .
reach the Eurdpean 'settlement, but found
every street barricaded by "braves," and they
were driven back, barely escaphig outrage and
death. Escape was impossible, for the foreign
ers were doomed.,
The Massacre
AbicinVnoon of the 21st the crowd had re
assembled Mid advanced to. the Consulate in
IWO sections, one down the. bank of the Gland'
Canal, the other up the river. At the Consul
ate, :were -the • , following-named - persons -at
lunch: The Consul, M.' Fontaine!.; M.
Simon, his Secretary• M. Coutres, Chancellor
(our nairator), anti 'Mons. and Madame
Thomassier4 the former holding
the high, official ' station of Secre
tary of Legation de France at Pekin, and in
terpreter. Demands were again made for the
-Consul to proceed-to-tha-Misrsion—and—comp4
the Sisters to turn out the children ; the howls
were.ahnost deafening, and in a ffiw minutes
stones:began let:4lower on the, building, some
-Lbreaking-the-WindoWsandlalling-onlheidinidg.
table, breaking arshes and scattering food about
the room. Upon this the Consul and .his Sec
letary arose from the table, put on their side
arms and regulation hats, and, going to the
walls which, surrounded the Consulate,attempt
ed to reason with the excited crowd. They
were met with volley after volley of sticks and
stories, and, finding remonstrance vain, the
gentlemen went out by the rear gate, and,
pursued. by the howling mob, sought the
Yarnell and demanded au instant interview of
the Governor. It was granted. What oc
curred at that interview we have no means of
knowing, except from Chinese information. A
'Chinaman minted Ting says that Chunghow
treated the Consul most contemptuously, and
even' spat upon him when he reproached
Chunghow with lack of faith and connivance
with the _priests a Budhso; that the Consul
assured Chunghow that he Was then abetting
a crime that would not only arouse his country,
but the - world, to vengeance, and
implored Chunghow to instantly
order his soldiers and protect the -
foreigners. Upon this; the servants were.

to expel him, atill did so violently. In
the scuffle a revolver which the Secretary had
in his hand was discharged into the floor, but
no one was hurt inside the Yarnell. The
doomed men then sought the street and at
tempted to reach the Consulate ; (Mr. Coutres
bad meantime escaped and concealed himself
- _in the top of a joss-house (temple), where he
witnessed what transpired), but as they turne , l
the corner, a leading brave attacked the Consul,
an-i nstan t-hundre-ds-moreh ad- oined-the
assailant, and in less time than it takes to record
it, they had cut, hacked and literally torn their
bodies almost past recognition. 13100,d once
having been shed, and the two high officials
slain, these braves knew no fear; with mad
dened howls they again sought the Consulate.
At the gate they found a priest whom they in
stantly killed. M. Thomassien was then
caught as lie was barring the gate, and cut
down. Madame Thomassien then came to
the wall, and the crowd rushed at her she
drew two self-cocking revolvers and killed, it
is said, four or five Chinamen before
she was overpowered. lier strug
gles were of no avail, though, and she was im
mediately murdered. Every house servant at
the Consulate, a native priest and two Canton
men were killed; and then the place was set on
lire. In an hour, the Consulate, cathedral and
out-buildings were a mass of ruins. The
bodies of the priest, Mons. and Madam eThorn
assien, were thrown into the river,whence they
were recovered the next day.
The Crownhaw Act of the Drama
Meautithe, after M. Fontanier had been
slain, a crowd numbering several thousands had
crossed the bridge of boats and surrounded the
mission. The doors were instantly wrenched
from the gate, and the crowd filled the en
closure with horrid shouts. A native Chris
tian priest who attempted to guard the door,
was seized and torn limb from limb. Nine of
the Sisters were then collected in the large
schoolroom ; they were beaten with sticks of
bamboo, their clothes torn from their bodies ;
they were placed on their heads and cut with
knives in the most savage manner, and out
raged almost beyond belief ; yet alive,they were
ranged side by side along the room, their
cheeks gashed, lips and nose cut, eyes
scooped from their heads, their breasts cut all;
and abdomen ripped open; with large cleavers
their limbs were cut and broken, and in ten
minutes naught remained but their disfigured
bodim -- Every cruelty Whin' it; 'was possible'
for the mast savage barbarian to conceive of
was perpetrated upon these weak, defenceless,
Christian ladies. When there was no more to
do, fire was applied to the massive buildings,
and in a little time they were burned. Sixty or
seventy children, who had sought refuge from
the mob in the cellar, were burned to a cruel
death. Afterward. six boxes, containing the
charred and mangled bones of the Sisters,
were forwarded by Chunghow to the English
Consul.
One of the sisters named LottEa can English
= girl welt-known in Shanghai as ailevoted and
faittifiliViend of the Chinese, and for years a
patient toiler in Anglo-China hospitals and
schools) escaped from the Mission when it was
attacked, clad in Chinese garments. She, ob
tained refuge in the house of a rice merchant,
where she remained fOur hours; but upon at
tempting to escape to the settlement, she was
betrayed by her European shoes, and set upon
by a crowd which in a few minutes numbered
hundreds. She was most shockingly abused,
and suffered indignity at the hands of the
savages which makes the heart sick. All, and
more than her companions had suffered, was
she compelled to undergo before death released
her. Ilex. body floated down the river oil

While the Consulate was in flames three

and passed near the building. They were set
upon, and although they protested that they

A Pleasant Parallel---The Well-Beloved

pariSOn with the Present.
When the First Napoleon went to war his
-last care• before stinting was :to- -seml- -for - his
trusty M. Frochot, Prefect of the Seine, and
for his well-beloved M. Fouche,-Minister of
Police, and to tell them both in that Significant
tone he possessed that he hoped -Paris would
remain quiet-in his absence. Whereupon M.
Fondle would bow his head, with a discreet
smile, and answer that his Majesty-might rely
-u pon-bint---wh ile-the-honest-AL-Froehot-vvould--
bow his head and answer nothing. ' The -fact
is, the honest M. Frochot was not afflicted with ~
an inordioate amount of intelligeuee, bt . ithe r. .
liad--itist-' sense -enough -te Sco--41fatAh&-beSt
thing he could do was to follow the
guidance of his colleague of the Rue de Jernsa
fem. And so, when the grand army and its
chief had disappeared through the Barriere
d'ltalie, or the 13arriere de Fontainebleau, or
the Barriere de Clichy—when the last vivan
diere cart had jolted over the rickety stones
which then did duty for macadam in the Queen
of Cities, when / ,he last among the' horde of
peddlers who Ilowed the fighting hosts like
carrion crow
~ lad vanished as a speck on the
dusty roads hen the passive bOurgeols who
had congregated in the streets to stare, gape
and cry ' / Iva la Guerre l'' had returned each
man e-riis avocation ; then this pair of leyal
•1 -6 Lets, MM. Fouche and Frochot,wonld meet
together at the house of Monsieur the Arch-
Chancellor, Duke of Cambaceres, and confer
withlhatimise dignitary as, tallow. Paris _might
be kept quiet. .
It was one of the most amiable traits of
character in the great Napoleon that, judging
the natures of all men by his own,.he put trust
in no one.. M. Fouche, besides orders to
catch priests nobles and disloyal tradesmen,
had strict instructions to miss Mottling of What
went On in the Hotel de Saint Florentin
(-where M. de Talleyrand resided), in the Hotel
Cambaceres, in the Hotel of M. le Cardinal
Fesch, his Majesty's most esteemed uncle (one
cannot be too prudent), in the Hotel de Ville,
and in the -- hotels of all the ambassadors—
whose despatches were unsealed and copied
with the most scrupulous regularity whenever
they were intrusted to the post. And, while
M.- Fouche was occupied in conscientiously
watching all these great people, a " counter po
lice (coutre police) which received its order di
rect from . M t Puree, was engaged, in spying
him. Admirable system! Touching confi
dence as between a sovereign and his subjects !
It was part of the honest M. Frochut's busi
ness to see that there was always a proper
amount of bunting and illumination after the
news - of - a victors'; that there should - be no
lack of congratulatory addresses from munici-
Pal councils, and that the bulletins of the
grand army were duly placarded at all the
street corners. Very entertaining composi
tions those grand army bulletins. The rules
to be observed in their fabrication were briefly
as follows : 1. Speak of all the victories as
" stupendous." 2. Make no mention of advan
tages gained by the enemy. :1. Deduct forty
per cent. from the number of slain Frenchmen,
and add the same forty per cent. to the total
of exterminated foes. 4. Talk of the extreme
enthusiasm of the conquered populations (Prus
sians and others) as being freed from the yoke of
tyranny. 5. Describe civilization marching in
the rear of the Emperor, and counselling him
to go on with the war by all means. 6. Order
a general Te Daum. In the bulletin which re
lates the entry of Napoleon I. into Berlin after
the battle of Jena, there is a most thrilling
,passage , about the ovation awarded to his
Majesty by the overjoyed Prussians—the real
; truth being that after Jena all women of Ber
lin cut oft their hair, and that the conqueror
rode through streets as deserted and silent as
catacombs. The duties of the Arch-Chancellor
Cambaceres - were somewhat more delicate
than those of his colleague at the Hotel de !
Ville. Id. de C. was entrusted with the mission
of taking care of and advising the Empress
(Josephine or Marie Louise, as the case may
be), and when the Imperial lady committed
blunders, to bear - UW - blame of them.
One would think that under such circum
stances—that is, with Fondle's police. on -the
one hand, With 'ISM Frechot and Canibaceres
on the other, and with his Imperial Majesty
exercising a vigilant though distant superin
tendence over everybody—lthere. was not much
dancer of Paris being otherwise than quiet.
liteene (lay the Emperor received a piece of
news that gave him an instructive idea of the
stability of thrones which are based on the
Rue de Jerifsalem, and have such men as MM.
Fondle, Frochot, Cambaceres and Co. for
props. The episode was a very comic one,
being simply this: Paris had been without in
telligence from the Emperor for more than
three weeks; vague rumors were afloat; the
reports of disasters were filtering slowly among
the public, despite all official precautions, and
everybody felt anxious and alarmed. In the
midst of this state of apprehension, one Gen.
Malet, who had been shut Op in a madhouse
for being a Liberal, escaped from his keepers,
called up a few friends, and rushed with them
to the Hotel de Ville, where they told AL
Frochot that the Emperor was dead, that a
previsional government was about to be estab
lished, and that he (Frochot) was under arrest.
Not for a single moment did the honest M.
Frochot doubt this piece of news or offer any
resistance. Like a true imperial functionary
who had never been allowed to think for himl
'self, hut - hadArmit bred :always to de vl tat- be
was told, he submitted. resignedly as a matter
of course, and was locked up there and then.
The same farce was repeated at several other
government, offices, and with, equal SILCCaSS, as
nobody resisted. It seemed quite natural to
he arrested; and, had it not been for a blunder
Gen. Malet committed in giving two contra
dictory answers to a brother general, whom he
was apprehending, he would .have been master
of Paris before, daybreak. -As it was his blunder
proved fatal to him; he was, seized, tried by
court-martial the nest' day, and shot: :The
mischief was done, however, and shooting
could net remedy it. When the Emperor re
turned lie'eaused Prochot to be tried by the
Cthincil of State' and degraded "for having
toiled in presence of mind ;" he also adminis
tered a stern rebuke to the Empress, who had
fled terror-stricken to Saint Cloud and ob
stinately. refused to return to Paris. But all
this i gyailed little:- From that • time forth,
iNtipiileim knew what his power was worth; he
had learned that sovereigns of his pattern can
never count on-the morrow:
Fifty-eight years have passed since General
Malet lleurished and the honest M. Frochot
was Prelbct ; but one cannot help being struck
by certain coincidences existing between these
years, 1812 and 1870. Heaven turbid we should
draw tub'closea comparison between M. Fondle
and M. Pleiri,:M. 'Cambateres and M. norther,
M. Froehot and Chetreau (or M. 011ivier),
H. 1. M.
.Marie-Lonise and 11. 1. li., another
august lady, .811.111es.q.!w111 we .hint at any pos-.
sible parallel between General Malet, and M.
Rochefort.orM. Flpurens. _ But, yet we repeat,
these are Coincidences. Have we not in each
case an immense war . too rashly undertaken, a
sovereign rather dreaded than loved in his good
city of Paris, and a people always ready enough
to cheer at success, but. never particularly gen
erous in forgiving thiln re?, : .

By the latest accounts Bazaine was reported
at Spincourt, near Montmedy, a town on the
river Chais, a tributary of the Meuse. twenty
five miles north of Verdun, and fifty miles .
northwest of Metz. It was presumed that his
int:eft - iron was to - cross the ArgoniffilTy - Stenay

of Aisne to St, Menahould, where, half way
between Verdun and Chalons, a junction could
readily - be effected - With - :MaeMelitrif. - • • -
St. Menahould is thirty miles north of Vitry
la Francais, and twenty-five miles northeast of
Chalons. The three places form a triangle, of
- which Chalons is the apex. At St. Menahould
a great battle will probably be fought, as it is
thought MacMahen is now on his way to join
Bazaine at this objective point.
The French position covers all railroad lines
and secures the retreat to Paris in case of de
feat.
Important movements in another direction
are in progre., by the French troops, of which
I am not at liberty to speak, but which are ex

have received further details of the affair • at
Longueville- on Monday last, Which was, in
tact 41:e beginning of, a series of. etigaqemenfs
,ixtending wall intervals over three days. Sun
,'ay afternoon the Emperor., with.au. esrzort
comprising the Cent Gardes,the Empreis's dra
goons and sx:alarliti2 elite, left Metz and
reached Longneville les Metz,which roust not
be confounded with Longueville near SLAvold.
At Longueville the -Emperor and household en
camped for the night Early Monday morn
ing they were awakened by a - cannon shot.
Rushing out of their tents, they beheld shells
falling all about their encampment.
The escort mounted and the Emperor in
stantly tumbled into his carriage in the utmost
haste. The Prussian reconnoissance Whin
caused this alarre Ras easily driven baCk, and
tLe Imperial carriages, surrounded by a strong
escort, made their way through Gravelotte
towards Condims; thence next morning from
Conflans to Verdun.
Now comes the curious part of- the account
of this retreat, or Light of the Emperor, which
was made through the very midst of the Prus- ,
slam army, then lying around Mars-la-Tour,
where the next battle was to occur.
The Emperor and his escort had 'no notion
what peril they ran till afterward, but they ac,
tually passed during the night through the edge
of the Prussian lines. I saw the Emperor this
morning. Ile is incredibly altered, and look
ing not only much older but blotched and
