FUSION OF NORTH AND SOUTH--
WASHINGTON CONFERENCE.
The coming together of the North and South, if it proves to be a par- manent arrangement, is a great step towards the unification of Chira and the eatslishment of a Central Govern- ment. The political situation in Chins is a dangerous subject to pro phery about, so little is known of the Fral inward working of the innumer- able parties, but it would appear as though the position was much more bopeful than it has been for many years past. It is only the people of China themselves who can put mat ters right, and it is to be hoped that

The Chinese Gar- ernment, recognising that, the sys- tem of levying likin and other dues on goods at the place of production, in transit, and at de- stination, impedes the Ires cir- culation of commodities and in. jures the interests of trade, hereby undertake to discard completely those means of raising revenue, with the limitation mentioned in Seation 8.
"The British Government, in return, consent to allow a surtax, in excess of the tariff rates for the time being in foren, to be imposed on foreign goods imported by British subjects, and a SUT- tax in addition to the arport duty on Chinese produce destined for export abroad or constwise,
