The same with the Chinese army. No Chinese troops can be trained to the exigencies of modern warfare, botsuse the solo power of direction must always ho vested in some Ignorant and incompatont mandarin
The life of a foreign offer in Chinese service is one of endless hamliation. He cannot do his daty, boosuse he is prevented. He cannot im prove the sub-ofleers and mon because say in provemsul becomes manifest exposers of the ignoranca of the Chinesa Geroral or Admiral, It-the foreigner le zonious, ngi appeals for sup- part in trigh place, he is at once regarded as an enamy by the thiorish coolie in command. A naval efficar has to see contional bronches of dis. cipline encouraged or motioned by the Admiral. He may propose a certain ocuts of discipline, such as strict guunery drill, firing så marks; sailing in station, uto, but the Admiral is sure
to be avarse. Then the fleer must look'en and se squeezing, or what we call peonition, going on in cool bills, wagas, storas, ote, and must say nothing. The crow and offers ojok all day and cannot be stopped. From the Adwinsí to the galloy-bay all expectorate profusely on the decks, and reconstrande is nervailing.. The cabins are kopt dirty, and complaint is "usoloss. The Ad iniral and his officers are uno!cauly or untidy, the Admiral likes to bare his fat corporation" fur hot weather just as a Shanghai.shopkooper doos, and rebuke is received with insult.
The consequence is, there is no nary and no Army. There are some vasolawith il disciplined and untrustworthy crews, and there are of land vacious mobe of mon with rifles.
