No one who has the true interests of the Colony, the interests of Justice, and the welfare of the Chinese at heart would begrudge an adequate salary to an efficient Interpreter General But it is the subject of general regret. that the great abilities of the Acting Chinese Secretary liave not as yet been directed to the performance of the duties for which he originally joined the Service and for which he is especially qualified.

This is important, and will doubtless bave considerable who are disposed to take a reasonable effect with those of the leading officials

Li Hung Chang, who is presumably the strongest friend of peace, is certain to place great faith in the advice tendered by a man like Gordon, coming from his old comrade, as the advice must now do, in as im- partial a spirit as it is conceivable it could be.

But the real question of peace or war will be settled at Feking; and so for as our information at present extends, the conviction is beginning to force itself forward that peace, will be the decision arrived at What part. Sir Tho mins Wade and Colonel Gordon may actually take in the settlement of that momentous question may never become
