The conilltion of the Aincricnii anil UiiRlibh missionaries 111 the interior of China is very precarious. Tim rebels known ns Yrgcturiaus teem to ho beyond Hi" control of the governor of the province or that otlicial is in sympathy with them in their determination to ex terminate nil foreigners. Tim hold of the Central government nt Peking appears to be very loose, and altliougli-promises to punish the offenders will no doubt bo made in reply to the representations made by the American J and English ministers it is questionable if the punishments decreed .can be executed, and our government will bt powerless to do more than exact a monetary indemnity. Wo have a liect of good warships in Chinese waters, capable of utterly destroying any seaport they have, but the wisdom of punish ing a lot of Innocent people who are ignorant of the cause of their punishment is open to terious doubt, more especially so as tho per petrators of tho outrages are Ju rebellion against tho government of the country. It would also be a violation of the usages of nations. If the l'erkiug government is powcrless,it would promptly settlo the trouble if the mandarin governing the province were taken in hand by Ministers Dcnly and O'Connor, backed by their respective ilects. This nieaus of settling the almir has been suggested and appears to be the only feasible one so far, as tho powvrlcssuess of the Chinese government sinco its disastrous encounter witli Japan is apparent to all. We cannot, however, butadmirothecourago of the Christian men and women who, in tho face of such dangers, take their lives in their hands in their heroic ollbrts to serve their Master in attempting to bring the religion of Christ to these followers of liuddba, and we trust some means of insuring them protec tion will speedily be found. Sknatok Tillman and Mayor Strong gave an Abbury Park audience their views as to sumptuary laws in South Carolina and Xew York, on Sunday. The former thinks the Mayor cannot enforce the Sunday closing lav? and that his dispensary law is the only effectual liquor law. Senator Tillman's con science is'not quite so squeamish in regard to disfranchising negroes as it is in putting ob stacles in tho way of whites and negroes getting a drink when dry. Tub chief of the weather bureau discusses this hot weather very scientifically, dividing tho, temperature into two kinds, tho "air temperature" and what ho calls the "sensible temperature," or temperature a man feels. Tho most sensihlo temperature for this season is one of 75 or 78 degrees. The summer days are on tho wane and vacations are drawing to a close.
