it cannot be doubted that our negotiatious and the tremendous show of resistanc have come to a most lame an impotent conclusion.' The statements of our re- sponsible Minisors do not appear to coin- cide with actual events, unless we conclude that all the demonstrations with our splendid squadron, lave been conduct ed upon the un-British principle of parebluft. As we have often stated, wo would only be too delighted to think well of the offorts of our Foreign Offies Roads, The ability of our Minister at Peking (The Claude Macdonald) does not seem to be questioned. But, after all the stir and pother and show of warliko intentions, our Bussion rivals have scemingly got every- thing they wasted, and of the pieces of ter- ritory for outpost that are left, Germany and Franco appear to be picking up the crumbs, by rotation; It may be that! we must await the publication of the official Blue Book, before any decided be given of what has actually opinion ca taken place.
