Aller waiting a while and hearing nothing further, we sent our writer off to ask them de- finitely what they pooped to do for us. He brought back word that L Tactal with his colleigue had to bed to selves, after the fatigue of eating a most sumptuous feast supplied by the Huang kang Hsien. He bad, however, seen the latter gentleman, and was told to inform us that we be permitted to go to Sungen, and also escorted, provided we went by boat and not by lind, that is, take an uncertain journey of a week possibly, instead of a sure one or two days. We now saw the case was hopeless. Without the help and countenance of the authorities we could dorothing, and it was only too plain that lastend of helping us, it would not give them a moment's concern, although another tragedy were added to that of Sonepu, and we the chief figures in it. Indeed, matiers at one time seemed likely to take this turn, in much so that we sent off one of our man to the river side with a note begging Captain Davis to stand by with kis ste mer tid he should hear from us,

When we started to leave, strong efforts were made to detain us. Our going did not seem to suit Captain Yang who, as it turned out, had been really appolated to accompany us to Sangpu. We made our way to the landing. however, and had the great pleasure of seeing the Fwho just coming into view. It was the pleasantcat sight wo had seen for a long time. When we got on board we saw Captain Yang rushing down the bink-he bad jost arrived from the city-and making frantic efforts to follow us. Captain Davis kindly waited for him. When be arrived he said everything had .bo. o arranged. We were to retura at once, and start immediately for Sungpu by land to carry out the original programme; but Capt. Davis said "go ahead," and we were careful not to say stop. The following reasons were given by our natives to account for the bindrances we met with in Huangchowin:-That the Sungpu matter is from beginning to end of so outrageous a character that they cannct permit foreigners to ace or to know any more of it than they can help.
That honest capable,
straightforward Li Tautai bud no lotenifun of going beyond Huang- chow himself, where he could write his report in comfort, and in due time return with all the criminals properly punished, on papir,
That the Hoanykang Hsien was determined to save the expense of our escort, which had been ordered by the Hankow authorities on pretty liberal scale.
The tus explanation, although there is no doubt some measure of truth in all these, is to be found in the fact that the Chinese at present do not care two straws for anything foreigners may ibluk or say about any of their scilons, no matter however outrageous; and as for anything the foreigners are likely to do, they see no reason to be afrakt,
We get back to Hankow within four-and- twenty bours of leaving t-quick work, seeing the mandarins. Several this gs have happened we spent six of the in faultless negotiation with since, but there are limits to time and space.
