The pathos of the incident is made more touching when we come to the appeat of Mr. Belilios" Give me a little help, and let me do the rest," he said, and this He need not be anxious about one thing--they modest suggestion was received with applause.

We may point out that it would be an assistance if par ticulars of any specific cases of neglect of the Mackay treaty were communicated to Mr. E. S. Little, it being evidently desirable that the case of the British merchants should be strengthened as much as possible. Lord Lanse downe appears to be anxious to do whatever is possible for British 'commerce in China, and the reports of H. E. the Minister of Peking and the British Consuls in many parts must already contain notices of the indifference or worse that Chinese officials have been showing to the stipulations of the Treaty of Shanghai. In fact, that treaty, instead of improving the conditions under which British commerce is carried on, has really made things worse than they were under the Treaty of Tientsin, and it is much to be hoped that the agitation of which Mr. E.

A DESERTED HALF-SUNK BATTLESH P. At right-angles to the Pobieda and lying within a few yards of the shore is the Refviron, sunk deeper in the water than any of the other ships. This once splendid battleship is now a mere mass of twisted steel girders and per forated funnels. The fore turret is slewed right round, and the guns are looking towards the entrance of the harbour as if still expecting to fire on the enemy, the muzzle of each gun just touching the water. The damage done to the Refvitan is of a more honourable character than than to the Pobieda, for it has nearly all been inflicted by the enemy's projectiles.
