They chose to attribute the warnings given thom” it England to spite and jealousy. But the Ministorial organ" frankly admits that the United States of America are not nearly an interested as England in the maintenance Of pooco in the Far East. It argane that the Amorietns have no earthly rason for being anything but strictly impartial. Yet, iratasd of attributing their attitude to its trus motive and taking a lesson therefrom, tha Paris prafers to overwhelm them with abuse. The sinister counsels given them from the other side of the Vosges are mom to the taste of the supporters of the Ferry Cabines than the frank opinions of the English and American Press The sequel will show whether they have asted wisely in disdaining the counsel of well-waing paliti crists, and in heeding the encouragements of "their enemies of yesterday." At any rata, it. cannot now be protended hero that England alaus disapproves of France's action in China, and this is something goined.....
