globe to newly create and extend markets for.her products and manufactures but the extremo Orient, and from that point of view China cannot but bo a very important customer for America. Again, it is incon sistent for tlie Americans to insist on the open door in China and yet shut their country against the Chineso, especially as the latter are not necessarily unwólcoms to all Americans. Materisl'y, too, the Americans can only be the losers in the game, because, as reports assert, the Ger mans are oven ́nów endeavouring hard to make most of the opportunity to tranfer to themselves China's good will. The journal does not forgot, however, to potico the candid efforts of President Roosevelt, My Taft, and other intelligent statesmen to 1876 right matters for the Chinese, and "hopïès that the unfortunate misunderstanding will be amicsbly settled by a section of the Americans giving up their prejudices.

We learn from an official lately arrived" from Poking (says the N.-C. Daily News), that the Waiwupu demand from the U. S.. Government that the following three clauacs shall be inserted in the proposed new Exclusion Treaty, viz :-(a) that the policy of oxcluding Chinese labourers from entering the Hawaiian and Philippine Is. lands be waived; (b) that Chinese entering the United States shall be given the came favourable treatment as those of
any other nationality entering that country,
and that Chinese shall not suffer the indignity of 1174 being confined in wooden sheds or buts, like criminals; and (c) that Chinese im- migrants shall be permitted to engage the services of legal representatives fo conduct their cases, and that power of appeal to g the higher Courts against the decisions of the lower Courts be also granted should said decisions be considered unjust. Wed also learn through the same source that Mr Rockhill, the U. S. Minister at Peking, refuses to entertain the above demands.

When Saussure ascended to make ex- periments at that height he motive was a worthy ond; but those who are impelled by curiosity alone are not justified in risking the lives of their guides. The pay tempta theso fellows to one unter the danger, but their safety, devoted as they are to their employers, is risked for a poor con- sidoration. It is no excuse that the ont- ployer thinks his own life worthless; hero he ought to think of the safety of others,'
Another guide-book of that period, Boyce's Bola um,' deliberately declined to give information about the residential nd- vantages of Brussels, lest he might un- patriotically induco Englishmen to settle there. The writer will not, he says, 'Insist upon the salubrity of the air, the beauty of the scenery, the pleasantness of the society, and the cheapness of the provisions, because he is too much of an Englishman not to fool that oxcept in the last particular no country can vio with his own nativo Jand. He laments the inania for emigration which now seems to rage, and he is thoroughly convinced that, if an English- man is dissatisfied with the constitution and the society of Britain, he will in vain seek for happiness in any other region.'
