To the Editor of the "Nonru-Cuwwa Datty News, 81n,—1 quote below a fow lines from a letter received to-day from Liaoyang, which may be of interest to your readers:—"All is peaceful here. John Chinaman having got the old Russian man' off his back now finds an equally heavy Japanese man in his place and doesn't like it. Though there is nothing to complain of more than is incident to such a mass of single gentlemen' with good digestions being hoisted into the community.
"The fighting was severe and unfortunately about ninety Chinese in the city have been killed and about five hundred wounded with spent bullets and shrapnel. The figures for city and district must be nearly 000.
"No Christians have been injured, although there were many narrow escapes. ans The smashed limbs of little and women have been a sickening sight."
