THE LATE MR. GIBSON.
Ir is with more than ordinary regret that we have to asinounes the death of Mr Johu Gibson, late H. B. M. Vice- Consul at Taiwan. The utterly unde- served manner in which his efforts, to respect for the Brit maintain a rightful r ish flag on the part of the Chinese had hoon met by the home Government, mia terially contributed, as we have reason to know, to embittering the last 10- touts of one who, whatever his faults, was a most strictly honourable and con

laboured in the performance of what he conceived to be his duty. A wound ne- cidentally received in an encounter with native banditti near Tientsin in 1863, by which a portion of the skull bebind the eye socket was forced into the brain, resulted in his supercession in 1864, and his being directed to return to England, for the benefit of his health. There is no doubt that this wound affected his mental powers, evidence of which was afforded by the partial paralysis of speech and an eccentricity of manner which more than once led him into trouble. On his return to China, however, in 1867, bia mental balance seerned restored and his judgment of China politics,-emi | nently pro-Chinese in many respects be it | noted-was in agreement with that of most who wore not bound hand and foot in the meshes of the peace party net. His slowness of speech continued, but his acts as Vice Consul betrayed no relapse. into the eccentricity of previous years, The loss of his wife deepened the melan choly of a temperament never very buoy ait, but produced no other outward signs. Shortly after this be was sent to Taiwan, and with the history of his way tion there the public of China are famul- liar. A sapegoat was wanted, however, to offer to the incensed peace party, and as one whose independence of control. (especially when in 1863-4 labouring under a slight mental aberration), had rendered him particularly obnoxious, Mr Gibson was selected for disgrace, Lieut. Gordon, R.N., being in consequence of the same action promoted to the rank of Com· mander
