The Revolt.
From the news to hand to-day it will be soon that though the Southern troops have met with serious reverses and, indeed, have made little or no advance what- ever beyond the Yangtare, they are nevertheless not quite over- whelmed. The latest news to hand shows that they have by no means given up hope of combating sOD- Cosafully with their opponents, Early this morning, we learn from our Shanghai correspondent, they made an attack on the Ar senal there, and, judging by the references to bombs and bullets flying in close proximity the Foreign Settlement, the matter has now developed into one that must seriously engage the atten- | tion of other nations." During the Revolution of 1911-12 lives and property of Foreigners were great- ly ondangered by both combat- ants, and it would seem that on the present occasion that Shang- hai Bettlement is similarly to run the gauntlet. The rick is too great; and it is therefore the duty of the Foreign representatives--- Great Britain taking the initiative to protest emphatically and at
once.

They do not impress one as being of the kind who seek to achieve their ends by peaceful means; they apparently prefer to revel in blood.
Daily Pros.
The Chinese Situation. With a Parliament such as that at Peking, constitutional govern- ment is an impossibility, and the great body of intelligent Chinese recognise this. The majority which rules in both Chambers has shown no disposition--indeed, . we might say no capacity-what, ever to take a calm, 'dispassionate intelligent view of the problem of the country, and the entire time of the Parliament since its inauguration has been monopolis. ed by acrimonious wrangling over

the proceedings of the Parlia ment and other minor questions. The ideals for which the rebels are fighting are entirely laudable, but the only way by which they can be attained is, as we have said before, by returning to the Parliament men who have a proper sense of their responsi bilities and who place the interests of the State before those of party [and_pocket. A Parliament which would inspire publio confidenos would be strong enough to keep | the President within the limits of constitutional proceedure. With à legislature such as the country now possesses; whoever occupies the office of President must of necessity develop into an autocrat if peace and order and any sem blance of government are to be maintained.
