RE THE KUCHANG MASSACRE.
THE EFFECTS OF PLAYING WITH JUSTICE."
FOOCHÓW, August 18th.
Stuce writing you par last mail, a messenger, sert by Dr. J. Rigg to Kleasing-tu, antred here--that was on Sunday fast-with letters to Archdeacon Walls, and as the latter venerable gentleman is up at Kallarg (the summer san- trium) the messenger at once started for that place.
I had an Interview with this messenger, who loformed me that there was a 20an of assault on one of the Certiflass; in which Dr. Rigg pressed the mandating in exercise jaallee, but, as this | was not forthcoming the enly recourse for Dr. Rigg was to apply to his carval for help. This be did and we hope that the foreign canrals will be able to enforce justice to Christians ei lokat.
It is now andonb'edly made pisin that the Kucheng tragedy has been treated by the various foreign governments with tro much leniency. and Instead of the native officials concerned being' degraded, promotion lizg followed their share in that terrible business. Stimulated by this, the Chinese officials bere have shown a marked stubbornness in all matters connected with the foreign consule.
