THE OPIUM TRADE The following memorial on the subject of the opium trade has been addressed by the Society for the Suppression of the Oplum Trade to Earl Granville, whose reply in ia alsu appended :—
MY LORD) A proposed settlement of the Opium Question as far as relates to Chine having bean announced by a member of the Government, wo venture to express to your Lordship the deep interest which the members and supporters of the Society for the Suppression of the Opium Trate naturally feel in the intelligence. It is with some besitation that wo approach your Lordship
before the terins of the arrange ment lave boun made public; but we forl that the position of the Society, as repre- senting, wo
we believe, the various Christian
Churation of Great Britain and Ireland, and the great majority of the right-minded of our countrymen, macs upon us the duty of giving expression to their convictions as to what is required to satisfy the
the consciouco
of the nation, before the signature of the treaty closes the door against any further practical discussion of the subject.
(2) While we dusita to place upon rocord for your Lordship's information what, we aro porauaded, are tho conscientious convic- tions of the British peoplo, we are anxious in no way to add to the difficulties of her Majesty's I
Government Oir this necount wa refrain from any public action, and content ourselves with making this writton com- munication to your Lordship, to the lif that you
will give
it your consideration. (3) We note the statement of the Under- Seoratory for India, flat the agronment ar- is perfectly sunsetor, to the Chinese. This language implies that the treaty has been made with the full and free concurrence and hearty goodwill uf the Chitus (levem:nent. The change from a policy of compulsion to negotiations carried on on end and friendly terms, in which the wishes of China are allowed to rale in a matter which affects so seriously her national warfare, is a gain so great in itself, and so bright with hope of a better era of international relations, that we shall rejoice to congratulate your Lordship on its achievement. We have the fullost cond- dence that your Lordship is conducted the present negotiatious in a spirit of porfect fairness and frisknoss; but when we ro- member that Lord Elgin, Sie Rutherford Alcock, and Sir Thomas Wade have left it un record that former trenfica have been extorted from Ching, and that the only pro- vious convention which was the outcome of entirely friendly negotiations, that which was signed at Peking on the 23rd of October, 1869, was not rated by her Majesty's Goverment, we venture to point out how necessary it is that the perfect freedom of the Chinese in the prement ugutiations should be made indisputably clear, and to express our hope that they have received the most direct and expärit assurances of the desire and talention of her Majesty's Government to treat China as a perfectly independent State, laring full liberty w

In view of the overwhelming m of evidence as to the demoralizing and destructive effects of the "jáum trafic in China, and of the general belief among intelligent al patriotic Chinese that the alarming spread of the vice imperils the best interests of the nation (a belief which is fully justified by the cuphatic declara- tions of the Indian Govertiment in respect
