Besides, there WAS the additional security that Cheagiu la great commercial centre where the only interest la peace, and where people from all paris of China reside, as well as many outlandish and forelga men from the countries further West, In the abience of all information it is needless to speculate on the esuzas of this riet, but this much may be said: considering the official and commercial character of Chéngtu, its hitherto peaceful record, Its remoteness from the scene of the war, and the freedom of all apprehension on the part of the missionaries, it was the very Jaat place where such a disturbance, was to be expected.
tell
It is more to the polot to enquire what is the main cause of such antager, and if they can he by any meins prevented. It seems to me that much light is thrown on this question by a careful consideration of some of the facts of previous riots. We have had five very serious ones on the river in recent years, namely, Chungking, Wahu, Waueb, Ichang and Sungpu, so that by this time wa’should be learn- log something. Now, one feature which was common to all of them was this: no matter how great was the less of life and property, or what was the particules government chiefly Involved, the Chinese version of the story wa always accepted as the truth of the matter, and no independent enquiry was made. Whatever merits the account of a riot as draws up by the responsible Chinese officials may have, truthful ness is hardly to be looked for as one of them;
and granting fall liberty to any story they pleased was hardly the way to make
them more careful next time, Further, it was a notorious feature of all the above cases that the really gelity parties were never brought to justice; even when, as in the case of Sungpu, the names and proofs af gullt were supplied, nothing was done to them. Those punished were insignificant, innocent, and sometimes friendly natives, while in one case where a whole Biliish settlement was destroyed, namely, Ichang, no one was ever punlahad at all; And still farther, all those cases were settled by the acceptance of a monetary payment, so many dollars for so much damage, and a regular tariff for European beads, with the result that the collection and disbursement of the cash actually became a source of much profit to the very Bilicials under whose suspices the riots occurred, When one considers these things--no questions to be asked, no punishment to be dreaded but an intense hatred to be gratified, and a snug sum of taels to be netted. The wonder is, therefore, sot that there should be occasional anti-foreign riots in Chins, but that they should not be very much more serious and numerous. Of course the Chinese Government cannot be held fren from blame in the matter, but the main responsibility for slots really rests on the Foreign Powers themselves, who persist in dealing with China is respect to such as if abe were a highly civilised Power, while in trath she does not rise much above, the level of soy painted savage chief. There will be no freedom from riots till the Powers' change their policy in dealing with them,

It may be felt by Our experience in the past does not encourage us to expect any help from the Diplomatic Corps, but the situation in China has greatly changed within a few months and China no longer stands in such high regard with European Powers as formerly The alter rotten- nea of the Chinese Government is now mada manifest and we may bope that a united petition may secure some attention.

A bay, with a star and streak of white,' a small white patch on his off fore heel, and white near hind shank, Carbine was fouled at Sylvia Park in New Zealand at the latter eað of 1885. As a yearling he was sold to Mr. Das O'Brien for 6za guineas. At two years of age his appearances were confined to racecourses in his native land, where he won the only five events for which he campsted, at distances of five and six forlange. Having an engagement to the Victorian Derby, run at Flemington in November 1888 he was shipped from New Zea- land to Melbourne in respect of which Journey it may be incidentally mentioned that he had such a rough passage on this his first experience of the sea, that ever afterwards, when he had to make a sea voyage, he used to takes the precaution of lying down immediately he got to his quarters on board/remaining in that position as long as he possibly could,
