In no case can more be sail of behalf of various terms used than that they express meanings analogous to these attached to such words at home. To this fact we would earnestly direct. the after- tion of home journalists.
Referring, however, to the salient fea tures of the articles we allude to, it i easy to see that Mr Burlingame hid very nearly succeeded in effecting the great object of bis mission,-a promise to pursue the policy of non-intervention on the spot no matter how great the provocation given. The Chinese place a truly Asia tic reliance upon the value of delay in settling difficulties with the more energe tic natives of Western countries, and had the arrangement at first telegraphed beer that concluded, immense gain to the Chinese and immense loss to British interests out here would have been the result. Even as we write, however, the Incoming mail brings intelligence that "the Times semi-officially announces that the basis of the treaty *** is modified by a reservation, to the effect that any case where there is immediate dan ger to the life or property of British powered to act without reference to the subjects, the naval authorities are em
