Chinese Piratos
The Scourgo of tho Eastern Seas
nro the pirates that iufent the China
Sua and tho Philippine islands J S
Sewall relates several thrilling
stories of the Chinese vikings crimes
and their punishment in tho salt
water century the September num
bei
Some of tho exploits of these red
rovers are curiously interesting If
any of my readers have sailed up the
Canton river they will recall the
Chinese fortress of tho Boca Tigris
at its mouth on tho starboard side
as you enter lown by the water
side a long white parapot stretches
along the shore at each end a wall
of masonry roaches up the bill and
disappears oyer the crest Whether
there is a fourth wall out of sight
joiuing the two and completing the
square I do not now remember but
certain British tars could tell yon
if they havo lasted from 1812 till this
present year of grace
During the opium war th fort
ress was attacked but the storming
party pulled quietly around tho
headland and forming on the bench
clambered up over the hill and the
first thiup tho Celestials kuew their
foo was rushing down upon them
from tho rear and wilhiu the
inclosure There was nothing to do
for it but to 8urreadir which they
did bristling with wrath at such a
breach of military manners Hiyab
Why you uo come front side More
better fight when tve makee ready
for youl
But this is a digression What
we are after is the pirates It was
an earlier commandant of this samo
fortress who met with equally bad
luck Ono of the fleets appeared in
bis neighborhood and he sallied out
to attack it The pirates surround
ed him and after a furious engage
men which lasted all day and with
such havoo as may be left to the
imagination captured him and what
ever fragments of his fleet were still
afloat This disaster was partly
avenged the next year when tho
Chinese admiral with a hundred
junks attacked another fleet on tho
same cruising ground
Great numbers of the pirates were
destroyed and some 200 taken pri
soners Those who are familiar with
Chinese methods can judge how
long the8e200 were kept from joining
their bloody comrades in tho shades
below In another encounter not
far from the same place before the
combatants could close upon one
another it fell dead calm where
upon crowds of the pirates leaped
into the sea like savages swam to
the enemy with their kuives in their
teeth and attacked them so fieroely
that tboy could not be beaten off
and actually cut out several junks
from the imperial fleet
The fortunes of war varied With
provoking impartiality and appar
ently with no ethical preference
victory would porch on the standard
of the pirate quite as often as on
the banners of tho righteous defend
ers of their countrys commerce We
read of whole fleets engaged fight
ing all day and night 2 days even 1
day at a time 200 or 300 junks on a
side and a drawn game at the end
No childs play this At one time
the admiral is lying quietly at an
chor among the island when sud
denly 200 pirate craft slip around
tho headland and pounce upon him
with an onset so furious that in
spite of a vigorous defence 25 of his
fleet are gone with their captors bo
fore be can gel up anchors and chase
them These encounters were not
confined to the sfn There were
frequent raids on the villages that
linod the harbors

Thoy fire 12 rounds per mi mi to
Tho gun may be drawn in the usual
way oither by men or horses but in
mountainous countries tho prefera
ble method is to take tho gun and
carriago to pieces which can bo
done in a minute or two aud fit
the component parts to the saddles
of four mules Thus the first mule
carryiug the gun with in en nanism
has a total loaJ of 293lbs the sec
ond mule carrying tho oradlo ith
buffer etc takes 28Slbs the third
mule taking the axlei wheels otc
has 277lbs the fourth mule with
the trail elevatiug gear etc has
2791b3 Other mules carry each 12
rounds of ammunition their total
load biing 278lbs The uniformity
of weight for each mule is most
satisfactory Tho lime takon to re
mount tho gun once tho mountain
is scaled is very short so that the
weapon because oj its power and
imbility confers great advantages
