Besides, the modifications which have boon meds of recent years in the car- riculum of the Government Central Sobool tend to favour the production of Anglicised clerks more than that of official cadets, English speaking now forming a prominent part in the courie of instruction. Indeed, if we are not mistaken, the Europeanizing effects of tesobing under present conditions in Hongkong, in Europe, or in Aberi ca appear to form the most weighty ob jactions, from official Chinese point of view, to the course of training enter. Led upon or completed by youthful Chi- nese students. A thorough course of education, either special or general, which could be accomplished without denationalizing the Chinese youths con- cerned, is doubtless what is really The 88. Gratitude, from Antwerp and Eaigon and Haiphong on the 28th Chins. Wo have abrewd suspicion that the process by which Chinese Tho Union Line stammes Altonore loft young men are sought to be turned into Western citizens of the world, is not al- together a healthy one. In individual cases it may prove successful but, take ing the bulk of the attempts made, if must be admitted that failure more nearly describes the result than success. Young China has frequently, like his prototype of Young Bengal, made more rapid progress in the development of the unsatisfactory traits of Western mau- ners, than in the healthy absorption of a higher form of education. The result has therefore been proportionately dis appointing. What the leading men of China would, we fancy, hail with pleasure is the establishment of a really high-class institution, whereis the
