THE ANHUI REBELLION.
THE REDEL SUCCESSES
The following telegrams were received by local mandarins on the zist and zand inst From Nanking it is reported that the rebels in Anhui are now under the chief leadership of the ex-B. A Niu, and number nearly 8,000 good and serviceably-armed men. The recent defeats of the town militia of the cities in the vicinity of Kuyang and Shuchou, and the regular troops, have thrown a quantity of fire arms and aminunition into the hands of the rebels which make them now so much the more dangerous. At date of the dispatch of the above telegram (10th instant), the forces sent by Viceroy Liu and the Governor of Anhui to crush the rebellion had not arrived at either Kuyang, or Shuchou. The whole region in that vicinity is said to be held by the rebels in
n strong force, they having also been joined by several thou: Band famine refugees from suchou, North Kiangsu, It is further reported that, having eut of communication with the cities of Kuy ang and Wengehêng from the outside, the rebels are using every effort to prevent the rais ing of the siege of these two cities by the Im perial troops. From Hodan comes the report of the rising of insurgents in the district of Hsinyih, under a rebel chief named Hsieh, who is now gathering a strong band numbering 2000 men to cross into Anhui From Ngank ing, the capital of Anhui, it is, stated that the survivors of the Lungshan battalion, which suffered auch serious defeat on the totli instant before the walls of Ruyang, lave all joined the rebels to preserve themselves from massacre. (This, it will be remembered, was common thing in the Taiping Rebellion.) The troops now on their way to Kuyang and Shuchou consist of the divisions of Feng yang, North Anhui (4,000 men), and Hisu-chout, North Kiangsu (4,500 men), under the jurisdiction, respectively, of Governor Têng of Anhui and į Viceroy Lit of Kiangsu. On the zest instant Governor Têng dispatched to the scene of dis turbances extra troops consisting of two battalions of foreign-drilled infantry (1,000 men, two mountain batteries (150 men), and a squadron of cavalry (300 men).

TIENTSIN, January 14th Please observe, I have changed my heading. I am not obnoxiously exclusive, but object to being one of a bend, and all your southern con- temporaries now have "Notes from the North" that I feel a modest apprehension lest I should get credit for that to which I can establish no claim.

Report of various kinds have been circulating about Gen. Yuan. I heard the other day that he had not paid his men for three months, and that some of his foreign instructors were threatening to resign. But I do not believe this is true, as Yuan has always had the name for being most punctual.. in.. his payments, Other reports say that he has ANOTHER FASHODA LOOMING IN been reported to the Empress as too partial to

The Empress and secretly contradicting some of her former is relaxing the tension of anti reform however, Edicts, so that now China is again permitted newspapers, and societies of a non political nature. There is a soupeon of reform, or 01 least-nominalreform in a recent Edict appoint.. ing Viceroys and Governors provincial members of the Taungli. Yamen, and giving them foreign difficulties and business as they arise. So many of these powers are granted nominally. however, but it is difficult as yet to ascertain the true value of the concession.
Views at Quai d'Orsay, however, are far less pessimistic. In official circles no importance whatever is attached to hence sinisters at tween the American and French-Ministers at Peking, and the present Cabinet is firmly resolved fully to respect all American vested-authority to deal directly to a certain extent with rights or interests at Shanghai, whether the Chinese Government accords the concession -or not, and any doubts about the exact de- finition of those rights would be settled in Paris or Washington by a discussion undertaken in a most liberal and friendly spirit.
French diplomacy is endeavouring to secure the recognition of Hunan and adjacent southern provinces of China as being within the French sphere of influence. 31. Lauessan and others, who guide the French policy in the Far East, are fully aware that suns just voted by the French Parliament for an Indo-China railway will be thrown away unless the milway can penetrate Hunan, connecting its markets with Tonquin and the China Sea.
Menawhile the rival English project to divert the Hunan trade westward through Burmah to Calcutta is regarded in official circles as the only possible point for conflict between France and England in China, for it is now admitted here that it is politically immaterial to France what happens in Northern China. This view is strengthened by the report of M. Heari Brenier, the head of the French commercial mission to China, just issued, which, closes with the following: Although there are many French religious establisliments in China, the number of French commercial houses there is only ten altogether,"
The same report mentions that the number of German firms in China is to

The first use to which the privilege should be applied is the settlement of the Yu Mantzu trouble. I heard the other day that the head of the Catholic Mission in Peking lnd approached the Chinese Government-and expressed the willingness of the fission to sacrifice Father Fleury's life, if the sacrifice would conclude the trouble in Sezchuan and save the lives and property of others. I almost doubt the fact however. However noble the deed, the principle would be wrong.
The most ostentatious attempts to limit official squeezing are being made en paper, and Edicts are being frequently published professing to check this or that form of corruption. One of the latest was countermanding the subscrip tions of officials to the Treasury, on the ground that the large suins sent in could only he raised by squeezing, and the moral of that is etc, etc. But no one really heeds these Imperial announcements, as it is. 'fully recognised that as they issue from the Imperial press Her Majesty "winks the other eye." A pretty big squeeze came to light in the Falace precints, the other day, at which the Imperial eyes were perforce compelled to of the rice destribution to the Banneren, in a stop winking altogether. The official in charge righteous endeavour to lay-by-for-a-rainy day- himself, just sutstituted bad rive for good.. But the Banneren having same capacity for judgement both in quality and quantity, objected, and secured the good offices of an official to remonstrate, and lay the matter be fore Her Majesty. The rice official paid a Court eunuch a handsome sum to present the "real facts, of the case" to the Throne, with a sample of the rice complained of, and chortled with-satisfaction when the infonning, official got himself in trouble. But for once virtue discovered the trick, and ac tanuch and a rice official are now sadder and wiser men.

In lines granted up to date, we learn that the British Chinese Railway Syndicate has just obtained a concession for a railway to run from Canton to Chengtu.

It would have been a disappointing breach of the friendly relations just established be tween England and the United States, says the Globe, if one of the first results of American dominion in the Philippines had been the exclusion of our trade from the archipelago by differential duties. Some apprehension had begun to be felt in various quarters that this might happen. It is highly re-assuring, there fore, to have the distinct statement on the sub- fect which has been made by the American Secretary of State. Free imports are not, of course: going to be allowed in the Philippines. The same duties
