PEKING.

(North, China Daily Newel Public opinion in Chian has ínsisted from the nataet that the punishment of the Tientsin man- darine was estential both san measure of justico and as a guarantee against the recurrones of vatragem similar to that of the 21st June And it was insisted that, even by Chinese law, they "had incurred the penalty of death. Great die- satisfaction therefore was expressed, whos "wo learned that a sentence of banishment only had been passed upon them, which was considered not only inadequate in ite self, but for the dus exemtion of which, as the Belgian Minister pointed ont in his despatch, there was no adequate guarantee. A suspicion wae expressed, souse manths ago, that this ap- prehension was justified, and that the sentence. would not be carried out. We are now assured that this is actually the case, and but the Pro- Lect and Sub-Prefect, instead of going to Mon- ekaria, have been allowed to return to their. homea. Comment is superfluons.

It is also remarkabla that Taeng ko fan, whom popular rumour landed, at the time, ZAĻA leader of the anti-foreign movement, is binmed, since his report exculpaling the Missionaries from the charges of mutilation, almost Az he was previously praised at a recent. Oivil Service examination at Peking, his son was bissed; and it bna heen with the greatest diff. cully that his friends have prevented the mem- bers of the Honan Club, at Pekinr,mim tear- ing down complimentary tablets which had been erooted to bim there.
