Mu Kieu-tung has returned, and ar cording to the news from Cores, the government thero has again rajeated the mood trading stipulation made by the Tsung-Yamin, which he took across. It appears thero is a diplomatic. wee going on there between China and Japan. and the Chinese are anxiously awaiting the ro torn of LA Hung along who is thought to be the only rann who is able to sɛrry du such an affair satisfactorily.

The Chtuese attribute Mr. Dillon's failure to his yoing by himself without any assistones from Chius.
