Competitive Examination tn China. Dr. Hitchcock, now on a visit to China, writes to the Amlicrrt fitudnU. aii account of the Chinese fashion of conducting competitive examination for literary degrees. The trial occurs once in three years, .;id it is held in mi immense yard, containing ubout 9,001) cells, each of them about six by four. Into one of these brick cells, with whatever food or light ho may choose to furnish, each candidate takes himself to write his essay, going on one evening and staying until the second morning, at which time the essay must be finished. During these thirty-six hours he remains entirely by himself. The essay is examined first with reference to chirography and orthography. If there is any defect hem, it is mercilessly consigned to the waste basket. It is then sent to tins copyiut, and afterward sealed up for the examiners. All the essays are given to two assistant examiners, who examine them, each one alone, and under tho watch of a monitor. The papers by thiis time are thinned out, and those that have borne the trial (ire handed to the two imperial examiners, who decide the successful competitors. How would our Amcr'ean college boys like it if they hnd to take their degrees through such thorny ways ?

Five Hundred Covrterfcitcrs on Trial at Oicc. In the whole liisto :y of criminal jurisprudence there has r robnbly never been anything equal to the gigantic t-rii.l which wi s ctmcludei'. at Moscow, inKunsin, on the 21st of November, and in which was arraigned live hundred prisoners, upward of tw. hundred of whom were convicted and sentenced to crui 1 penalties. Among the accused were persons of every station in life grnvhaired men and youths, men and womei; among the hitter some highly accomplished and prepossessing in appearance. All the prisoners were charged with one of the gravest offenses in the criminal code of Uussin Hint of connterfoitinjr. That code says: " The person that counterfeits the coin or currency of the Imperial Government shall suffer death." .Notwithstanding t'-iis rigorous provision ltnssia has been Hor ded for several y.-rirs past with well--executed counterfeits of the Government treasury notes. Tie prompt execution of several who were caught in passing the spurious currency did not cheek the evil, and for the li.st three years it became so great that the Minister of Finance was almost in ciespiir. Offers of the largest rewards c'.id not lead to the detection of the gui ty parties. Changes in tho appearance of the treasury notes did not do so much good either, for so vast is the extent of the Russian Empire that it takes the Imperial Government six months to communicate its deijrees to the remotest parts of the coniivrr. At length, in last .Ttily, a curious accident gave the Government the lonjr-looked-for clue, which led to the i.er covery of an association of criminals of both sexes, banded together for tho purpose of circulating spurious currency, and which extended from the bleak and frozen shores of the White Sea to the Volga and the Bl.iek Sea. In the course of the two following months 8,000 l ien and women were arrested, but after a preliminary examination 2,500 of tl.em were discharged, and about 500 were held for trial. Among the latter were six Frenchmen, of St. Petersburg, 'vho had been caught printing the conntei feit notes, nnd a comparatively huge nuir ber o' women. The prisoners were all conveyed to Moscow, where they were confined in the vast vaults underneath the Kremlin Palace. Criminal law iu P.ussia. is barbarous- at the best, and the mule prisoners were herded together like as many dogs. They received the co-irsest of fare, ar.d straw was their inly couch. The women were treated but little better. On the 20th of October the trial opened in the largo hall of the Kremlin, which holds nearly five thousand' persons. The proceedings were protracted for a month, ai d the prosecution succeeded in establishing the guilt of nearly one-third of the accused. Two hundred and three of them were found gv ilty, among them abo it fifty women. Sentence of death was passed upon tho six French printers, fnd the other convict ?d parties were condemned to hard lab;r in the gold mines of the Ural Mountains for life, or for ten years. The doomed men and women burst into piercing shrieks and howi.s, and well they might, for, in ease of tire former, the sentence included barbar.i:is flogging and b: anding on the forehead with red-hot iron; while the women, some of whom were of refined descent, siuddered at the filea of having to do the most menial woih for life or ten years at the station house. In their despair some of tho unfortunates threw themselves upon the ground and their piercing cries, mingleel witii the clanking of their chains, produ -cd a truly horrible effect. The excitement fliul frenzy of the condemned grew from minute to minute more intense, anl the .fudges, in order to restore quietude, had to call in the soldiers, who, with their kantscluiln, beat the prisoners right and left, and then dragged thein back to the vaults of the Kremlin.

Mr. Ma'ihews, pastor 'of the Free Methodist Church at Third nvenue and Twenty-first sti.-etit, Brooklyn, in his sermon last Sunday even described the mystic brotherhood of the square and compass as "hay, wood and st' bble." Some of the congregation responded "Amen!" while others 'hitched uneasily in their seats. Encouraged by tho stir he had creafel the pastor thn idoreil anther anathema against Masonry. At this juncture a gentleman in the tfody of the house arose, and, addressing the pastor said, ".Sir, that is false." fcicveral ladies and two gentlemen, who see ncd to be in sympathy with the bold challenger, arose, and following him, -valkeil out of the chinch. Instantly there was a stir all over the congregation. The chorister w awakened from si eep by the shuffling, nnd, thinking the n eeting had been dismissed, was about to strike up the iloxolopy. Others who had been drowsy began pulling on their overshoes preparatory to retiring. In the midst of this disorder the pastor raised hiii voice and said exnitantly: " My dear brethren and sisters, have driven the devils from the church, and I am glad of i';." Order was then restored; a sw-.:t and holy culm pervaded the building, and the chorister went to sleep again. The gentleman '.vho interrupted the pastor and insinuated that Mr linguage was conspicuously inexact, is the Rc. Mr. Willbridge, a Baptist clergyman of Ohiropee, Mass., who is tarrying with friends in Brooklyn. CifAitwrrTB CrmnwAN. We read in the OlitCitro imivru llwif. tlx eiiiT.i,i.i,.,l

EnrroniATj Opinions. An advertisement is, as a general rule, an elaborate euloginm on the merits of something which the advertiser desires to sell. Tho editors and publishers of the paper in whic'a it aspcan aro not responsible for L5statements. Sometimes, however, higiTiy important discoveries or inventions, announced to the world through the Imsiness department of tlio press, seem, to demand a few words of editorial commendation.
