it is no doubt advisable that we should be on friendly terms with all other countries, grest and small: but what we chiefly desidorata is the necessity of discriminating between those powers that can, and those that osanot, by the bestowal of their friendship, be of prno dical ass to us and the advisability of our #pecially exerting ourselveste gain the esteem and goodwill of those that are in a position to prove “our Bart Trishdi. Gormany is a rustant Stala: whoso infinence, is little fall in the Orisat, sad we need not be so salous in hultivating an in- timaoy with her, as in ouiessenring to exciliata Eagland, whoseintorests in the East are extensive and important. Mr. Gladutone, the British Prime Yinister, is not on the best of terms with. Princo Bismarck, and, this being so, the two countries cannot, while the Idberals are in the condanoy in Britain, enter into oleso rolations. Any special attention by Japan to the Germons would probably excite the suspicion and jualensy of the French; and we shonll be exposed to the danger of losing the friendship of the two nations. that arercise the shied influence in the Oriant The wealed-for carbosy and attention shown to Germany by tho Chinese after the success of the French in Tonquia, the transmission to Germany of an order for the construction of war- vessels, and a reggent for the servigst of German noval officers, only tended to exeperate the - French; and was in groot part the esuse of the procent crisia. Germany has no interest in the Orivat, beyond her desire to promote her own interests by eraging the aggressive policy of France. Be far from affording any assistanos to China, she would adhere to her position us an gutaider, so far an Eastern affairs are concerned. The English Government is composed of Liberals, ----who hold that all buman beings should enjoy equal rights, and that all the untions of the world, should be on an equal footing. It is hardly pes- nitlo, however, for any other mation to enlist the sympathy of the British by appealing to the doctrine of equal rights. Their interest can only be secured by profit. Had China direct ed her efforts to coltivating the goodwill of Britain, instead of Gormany, by evading to tastet country orders for ships, gums, and other mu nition of war, abe might lure basn, protected from the dangers by which sho in now-meround- el Had she given her ortars for man-of-war to Mr. Reed, entrestal the mannfastara of ber gans to Sir William Armstrong.and engaged Ter nasal offloare in England, she might have b}_2}.

Some may be die- podod to ridicula tos notion that these things would have influenced the positiva of Chies, but wo know that remarkable events arise from the most triting canses. To prove this, we have only to look at what has lately happened. Why, after France had subduet Tonquin, and rumours were circulated that she was prepared to negotiat

The only consideration that in Manis Bluenced the English at that time was the Haiphong question of their own commercial profit in China.my The msrsemary spirit of the English people was tored by the measures of the Chinese Govern Rat-007 ment. When Japan, some years ago, entered into Wadie communication with Mr. Read as to the construe tion of roseola for her navy, that gentleman seemed to have developed extreme solicitude on behalf of this country, and it is said that, last year, he three times addressed questions in the House of Commous with referance to the revision of our treaties.
