many of the most important official posts in the provĺncm.
In 1872 he received further advancement, being created Grand Secretary of the Wen-hma Tien, the holder of which post is held to be the highest civilian in the Empire and has no farther honours for which to aspire. He also bears the title of grand guardian of the Heir Apparent, and has held the Chibli Viceroyalty for over twenty years without a break.” He is a fine specimen of a stalwart Chinese, standing 6 feet, with an erect military bearing, a complexion unusually fair for his race, and a long black moustache which partly conceals and softens the bard new about his mouth. His face, when la' repose, weaIn an expression of cold, hard, unflinding determination, but when it up by "agreeable "conversation~his features become exceedingly handsome and attractive, with the courtly refinement of the bighest type of a Chinese gentleman,
This is the personage in whose hands many people consider the destinies of China-rest, and probably few beyond himself know in what direction his ambitious and aspirations are likely to lead him. He has had much experience of AR | Foreignem in his lifetime, and if he has gathered wisdom from his experience, he must know that China is at present playing a dangerous game, and that those who abet her in her folly are likely to share in her coming disasters:
It must have occurred to every one reflecting on the recent coarse of events, that not the least extraordinary feature of the case is the apparent apathy or inability of the Chinese Government to take any decided steps of a military or naval kind to overawe the turbulent classes and ensurò, once for all, that there shall be no repetition of those lamentable occurrences which have excited to strong a feeling of resentment in the minds of Eampean Powers. There has been any amonD! of discussion, a great deal too much talic, people of an Impatient turn of mind will probably think; the Yamen has declared this and assured us of that; they have even had the almost laughable impertinence to protest against being urged too vehemently to adopt those measures which should have been taken as a matter of course, and so to speak, instinc: tively. They have offensively insisted on the national dignity being respected, and the taak of maintaining order within her own border being left to China. Yet all the time we have seen no concentration of troops in the affected regions, nor, more significant still, han there been any attempt on the part of the Central Government to move either the Northern Squadron, or the Southern Squadron, or both, to the scene of the disturbances, though as the places concerned are mostly on the Yangtaic such action would have offered the simplest solution of the problem in hand. As It enhance the significance of this extraordinary remissness, the two. squadrons have actually been called together to execute evolations in company and to be reviewed, so as to prove, as it were, to bystanders that the neglect to use the naval forces is not to be ascribed to their want of efficiency. But this very bravado, intended no doubt to Impress the Foreigner with a sense of China's independence and contempt of cutalde opinion, is likely to have another effect which was never perhaps contemplated by those responsible for, China's naval Insetion. It will lead thoughtful Europeans to consider what the are for this scornful neglect of an International duty, and on whom the blame is to be laid.

There appears to be only one answer possible. The reason is the deliberate will of the Viceroy of Chibli, and the blame must fall accordingly Why the first civilian of the Empire should adopt what can only be called a suicidal policy (for it appears likely to involve his, country In actions difficulties with more than one Foreign
is not so clear, but the more power), becomes evident that sediion is making head way throughout the land, the greater tendency there will be to believe that Ll bas, or intende to have a Foreigner in the pie, and that he con- siders it to his interest that the Yangtze Valley disturbances should run their course rather, than be checked. There are few who doubt that the Viceroy of Chibli, more than any other Individual statesman of the Empire, is powerful for good or ill, and the only doubt remaining is whether he will throw his sword into the one scale or the other. Considering the all-potent influence he undoubtedly commands, it may be of same interest to give a short sketch of his career in the public service, epitomised from an account communicated seven years ago to Tâs,

Mr. Wilkinson gave us or our lawyer no proof of his right to demand the rent nor referred as to anywhere for his title.
On the 16th instant Mr. Dowdall wrote to Inform Mr. Wilkinson that the rent due including that payable in advance had been paid to the Shanghai Total in his judicial capacity.

This I am quite sure they did, and the police saw it also, although some coolies with bamboox appear to have entered from Foochow Road to look on.
