Aiaooo as the Rmwian troops went down the river on tra. s.wts (July 14) the fori at Aygun began, without warn ing, to tire upon p.'aaenirer steamboat, and on the 15th fire was oiwned upon lilagovcetcbensk and some ltuesian vil lage were buined oppoaite tlie fort.

The iream was fairly black with bodies. Three days after hundreds of corpes were counted in the water, Mr. Wright ay : In our ride through the country to resi b th. city Thursday, the 18th, we aaw aa many aa 30 villages in flames. One of them was a city of 8,000 or 1J.000. We estimated that we saw the dwellings of 20,003 peaceable Chinese in flamee that awful day, while parties of Coaaacks were scouring the fluids to find Chinese and fthooling them down at sight. What became of the women and children no one knew. On our way up the river, 500 miles above the city, every Chinewe hamlet was a mat of ruins. The large village of Matcha wai Mill smoking, and we were told that 4000 Chineee had been killed. The wholesale destruction, both of property and life, was thought to be a military necessity.

It raged with unUHual violence for nearly two days np to the evening of September 13, and was the severest that evei visited Northwestern Alaska. A number of barges and lighters were driven ashore and totally w recked. All along the beach for miles, both east and west of Nome, the wind and water have created havoc with tents and mining ma chinery. A number of lives are believed to have been lost. It is known that An drew A Ryan, of Los Angeles, was drowned. Several captains and seamen on small tugs are missing, and it is thought they are lost. .Fully 500 people Hie homeless, while the loss to property and supplies is over $500,000. There is not an alley leading to the beach that Is not filled with debiis. Many of the Front-street buildings abutting on I he beach have been damaged. Numerous small buildings were swept completely away. The damage to the building, tents, household effects, merchandise and other goods and chattels is Been everywhere along the water front. The heaviest individual losers are probably the AUhUa Commercial Com pany and the Wild Goose Mining and Trading Company. A serious loss is the illMftinionrance of over LKXX) tons of coal. Captain French, in command of the troops, has thrown open the government reservation to those rendered homeless by tho storm, and will extend such other nssistance as is possible.

The Herman foreign office baa received official Information of the appointment of Prince Tuan as grand secretary. A high official of the foreign office said: "The appointment mean that Tuan is now at the helm, and shows to what lengths the Chtneae government will go in defying the powers." Von Waldersee bas cabled Emperor William direct tbat he has found the general situation more I dangerous than he bad evpected, aa it has grown worse daring the last fort night, and the consuls In Central and Southern China are expecting a general upriaing. Advices from Dr. Homm ron Schwartsenataia, theGefaaa -mUiatet in China, are of a similar tenor. Rear Admiral von Bndeman has repeatedly cabled that the situation along the Yang ste Kiang Is very critical, also expressing fear concerning the safety of Kaio Chou. Yon Waldersee wili urge the demand for theaurrender of leaders of those who committed the outrages. Senator Beveridk-e opened the republi can campaign in Illinois wita a speeco in Chicago yesterday.

It can be said without much fer of dispute he succeeded in life. He aet out lo le a i k la. man, beginning when he wa fourteen year old, and by hard work and economy in early life, and Lard work, dexterity intelligence, and courage in later life, he hal the aatiifaction of dying in a some what conspicuous stats of solvency. On can hardly eacape the conviction tbatie) put hi (Acuities to the nee for which they were intended, and worked fairly oct what was in Liin. He seems never to havt degenerated into a mere money making machine, fie was a man all hie life, and it was a long life fully lived out. What he did and what he wa aro more interesting than the tale of bis ac cumulation. If hi life could be written by a master, not aa a decorous memoir, but a a novel of adventure, what a cap ital book it would makel It should b so written. It is aad that ha did not leave an autobiography. The type that be repreented, the men of the last half century in the United State, who were leaders in the material development of the country, ought to be put into book", bot none seems to be doing it. We get stories of swashbucklers in Tudor Eng land, and fighting gentlemen of all peri ods of French history, and of e ninent pirates snd sea-fighters of vsrius times, . but our great captains of indnstay, thrift and finance don't get into literature. They ought to, if only in concideration of the enormous booty tbey have brought 'into port. Stevenson in Treasure Island ! tells how Flint, of desperate memory. j baying boned bis accumulations on tbt island, and murdered his six helpen. comes aboard ship with a bandage on bis bead and announce to bis moltinous crew who ask bim where tbe treasure is, "You can go ashore, if you like, and stay, but as for the ship, she'll beat op for more, by thunder!" It is a fine pic ture of indomitable purpore, bot it la some what griveons tbat it is likely to be) familiar in the minds of youth, while the story goe practically ontold of Huntington sleeping re t fully after labor" iousdays. lulled by the consciousness) that bis debts were so enormous that the bank were bound to see that be did not fail. Nor did he Ever, like Flint, he bound up his harts and beat np for more. Somehow, as we look on and meditate, there seems to be a great deal in common between a successful pi r a to of the seventeenth century and a success ful railroad king, or trust msgnate, or empire-builder of the nineteeth. Tbe persnntl habits of oar strenuous projec tors, are, as a rule, far superior to those ot Flint and his like; they are abler, wiser, and command much better legal advice, and turn earlier to respectability', and even sometimes to piety. They ripen better into honored old age. Bat they all have in a high degree the undy ing purpose illustrated in Flint to beat up for more, and most of them cnmbine with it a vast respect for Rob Roy's good j old rule, That they should take who have the power, And tbey should keep who can."
