nalty of the capital, many of wealth and high rank. The presence of foreigners alone has hitherto prevented an emeute, a belief existing that any such measure would result in foreigners taking into their own hands the disposal of the throne and regenoy. The existence of this war party however is as well known in the provinces as at the capital, while its chances of eventu- ally again coming into power have been exaggerated in the former. The governing party have, again, in their more

The sentiment of dislike to foreigners, so often displayed in commu nications to the Peking authorities, is never reprehended, although acts tealing to embroil the Chinese with outsiders are frequently repudiated or censured. From these circumstances--the existence of au important party which does not concaul its anti-foreign proclivities, and the par mitted belief that the party in power would be obstrastive if it could-a firm belief has been implanted in the official wind of the provinces that while active opposition may be dangerous, passive inaction when foreign interests are threatened is welcome to Chinese supe- riors. The happiest man is he who can hit the golden mean of combining the greatest shew of friendliness with the greatest amount of real indifference to any tujuries inflicted. The two partica are much in the position of the naval captain and midshipmen who pulled down the Scotekman of an objection- All communications addressed to this paper able tobacconist leaving it in the gut- "I must panish you, young must be accompanied by the name of the ter sender, not necessarily for publication, but as gentleman," said the Captain.

And so the Chinese often, while nominally punishing or reprimanding au obstructive official, continue to hint that he might hare buried the Scotchman," ie., carried out his obstructive policy much further without incurring a heavier reprimand- a bit which it is needless to say is duly taken. As all promotion comes from the capital-aud as by a su gular fortune those who have been inost obstructive to foreigners find that they rise quickest the consequences of this policy are pretty evident.
