investigation made at a lonely hose fed to the seizure of docu- ments which" roveulod the full
story of the plot. The documents in question indicated the division of Cochin Chinn into provinces, at the head of oach being the name: of a colonel, whose iniasion, it was to recruit adheronts to the schema and undertake the direction of affairs. When the insurrectional movement aliould break out the conspirators at a given signal would rise in rovoltand massure the mujority of the French rosi- dents. Thenumo of the man who was to be declared 'Governor of | Cochin Chính after the revolution: was given in the papers, and thús man was promptly placed under urrost, but lie took poison in prison' nud died almost immediately. aftorwards, It is added that the revolt was imminent, tlie prepara tions having been practically [completed."
COLONIES AND MR. CHAMBERLAIN.
Indications are coming to hand from more than one portion of our dominions beyond the seas of a desire that their representatives at tho Imperial Conference ond the Coronation should take occas sion to express to Mr. Chamber- lain the grateful remembrance entertained for his especial ser- vices to the Empire as Secretary of Stute for the Colonies. This dosiro (says the "Birningham Daily Post" is being shown just now in marked degree in various. parts of South Africa, and a hopo is being expressed that it will take form when their represen tatives proceed upon a provincial tour, which would embrace Bir mingham, Anything in the nature of a party or particularist demonstration would be avoided · but the wish to prove the per manence of the popular regard for the ex-Colonial Secretary con bo offectively satisfied in an un- official form.-"The Globo."

The one indigenous cult is Taoism, which is mocked at by the scholar, the speculations of Leon-Cu having degenerated into alchemy, astrology, and general puerilities, Confucianiem is not religion but a philosophy. The profound belief of the lato Em- Press Dowager and many of the leaders in the occult powers and incantations of the Boxers shows how China was working out her religious development.
