THAT our Shanghai correspondent was fully justified in all he wired to us last week in respect to Russian interference in the following from the N. C. Daily News of the settlement between Chisa and Japan, the 1st May, and more recent intelligence very clearly shows:
"There is no doubt that the terms of the Treaty arranged between Chios and Japan have met with serious opposition from Russia, who has all along warned Japan that she will not permit the cession by China of any Manchurian territory: and advices received from Japan yesterday show unmistakeable evidence that the relations between Rasila and Japan on this question have been sis greatly strained that a diplomatie drisis has occurred which may lead to something very serious. The Japanese ^vernacular press have been forbidden to make any reference o to this, hence a want of knowledge of the real state of affiks between the, two constries which is not only irritating but is cause for a great deal of anxiety.
