In the retent intercourse between Europe and China, Chi bas always yieldod, and it is quite possible that she may continue upon that vono nati Europe isas fairly taken possession of her lands apen the sea What we want to point out is that much of this calealation rests opon puro assumption, that we do not you know how far the great mon of China lure beon wennded by

that the rocent events, d
