Without doubt the riot was anti-Christian to some extent; and it is also a fact that missionaries, were the greatest sufferers from it; but it is also certain that had foreign merchants resided in the city at the th they too would have been rudely called upon to endure the violence of an unscrupulous mob whose chief if not sole object was plunder.

The occurrence has left indelible impressions everywhere. Time may do something towards dulling the memory of the affair; but even long years will not entitely wipe out the stain which the wilful conduct of the Chungking people has made upon their former enviable reputation.greed As to the future little can be prognosticated. Rumours are already abroad that the forthcoming triennial examinations will produce fresh diatur- bances, while threats are common enough and bitter enough notwithstanding that the authorities have from time to time issued proclamations exhorting to peace. But it is not reassuring to be told that the present Magistrates are a set of temporisers-capable doubtless of composing very excellent Chloese posters, but absolutely unprepared to act beyond the limits of their ancient and effete methods of city government.

QUEBEC, February 11th,
Sir John Macdonald has a scheme to beat the Annexationists. Knowing that if he waits for the regular election in 1892 the progress of the annexation sentiment will overwhelm him, he bas decided to appeal to the country at once on this question, knowing he can secure an easy victory, under cover of which he can retire from the government with flying colors and with the annexation party bandaging a very black eye. To furnish an excuse for this, one of his adherents will demand of the Liberal Quebec Government to know what it proposes to do about Den But- terworth's annexation resolution in the United States Congress.

ROME, February 12th.
A shock of earthq sake was felt to-day at Bolton and Manchester. No damage was done. The Berlin correspondent of the Standard says; Secretary Bavard's statement that the United States would request that a truce beby, reason of the perils by which they are observed in Samoa causes surprise here, as it is contended that the Samoans continue to occupy lands belonging to the Germans. It is not believed that the Samoan conference can meet before the end of April, as it is unlikely that the American commissioners will be chosen until after Harrison is inaugurated,
The body of a woman was discovered in a chest by the police of Dundee. The abdomen was ripped open and the body otherwise muti- lated. The chest was so small that the mur- derer has been compelled to squeeze the body into it.
A dispatch from Dundee says: The murderer of a woman whose mutilated remains were found in a chest there to-day is W. H. Bury, husband of the victim. Bury was a resident of White- chapel, London, and his antecedents, which have been traced, suggest that he is probably "Jack the Ripper," and that he is subject'tò fits of un- conscious murder mania. The post mortem examination held on the body of the Dundee victim proved that the woman had first been strangled and her body had then been mutilated, the abdomen being ripped open and the legs and - arms twisted and broken.
Bury says that he left Whitechapel three weeks ago. He refuses to say why he left there, and acknowledges he had no business requiring his attention in Dundee. He says that he and his wile drank heavily last night before retiring, and he does not know-how he got to bed. Upon awaking, he says, be found his wife lying upon the floor with a rope around her neck. Actuated by a sudden mad impulse, for which he cannot account, be seized a knife and slashed the body Upon reason returning he became alarmed and hastily crushed the body into the chest in which it was found, abinking to fly and make his escape. He found, however, that he could not leave his wile's remains, and finally résolved to inform the police.
The Pope, in an allocution after declaring that negotiations between Russia and the Vatican are progressing satisfactorily and will soon be concluded, deals at length with the position of the church in the modern world. He says that it is now more than ever necessary for the powers to make coinmon cause with the church threatened, proof of which was afforded by the recent unfortunate disturbances in Rome: Arms alone, the progress of military science and the perfecting of weapons of destruction, are insuffi- cient. Moreover, even though it is permitted to employ arms in self-defence, nature does not tolerate might being held, a sufficient surety for right. Peace must be preserved by rendering to each what belongs to him and strictly adhering to the dictates of justice,
