The expeditionary force are and have been encamped for the last two months in the vicinity of the mountains forming the stronghold of the rebels. As a point of attack, the position of the Ganeral is undonatedly one of disadvantage, but I am inclfand to think that the lack of etholent Gararament support, utter want of esprit de corps among the troops, with no organized commissariat sss prop to the physical endurance that such campaign entails are the shortcomings to which we may attributs ile reason why no decisivo engagement has yet lakon plaga.

Snah a course would bare bones an net of weakness and self-destruction, and even if these obu wore disposed to adhere to their engagements, the warlike spirit of their followers and their allies du Hakkus, would, in all pro- bability, have prevented them from doing so.
Should the present intended oporations against the Li-preven more soap-babbla, it is to he hoped that the Viceroy of the two Kwangs will see the stern necessity of protecting the interests of the villagers living viljacent to the mountains from the periodical attacks of violence they have af fered at the hands of the is. This might, I venturs to assert, be prevented by the permanent maintainance of a amil garrison at various points ragoicing protection. The mere prosence of such a force world not as a check against the indig nities that the peaceful catives have been sub jected to, oircumstances that laro a tendancy to reflect upon the provincial authorities, from whom the Hainanese naturally expect help.
