The scholars best adapted to be sent to foreign countries Are mainfestly not to be picked up the streets. The class required are the apne of well-to-do officials or persons in the better runka of Society, who have already, bad a good Chinese education, and to whom the additions! knowledge of a foreign language, and of fo. reign manera and customes, arts ani science, would be a passport to high and influential positions under the Imperial Government. There are plenty of such persons to be met with in China, but it is not very likely they would join this mission. The simple runson is 2: the utter corruption of the official system, and the consequent want of confidence in any inde Bite promises of the Governmret.
