At the audience of the Foreign Ministess the Secretary read the Emperor's speech, which had previously been submitted for approval, to the Diplomatic Body, but the Emperor did not personally address them. At Chinese Audiences the Dowager has occupied a seat above him, and he is stated to be looking thin and ill. In the matter of education however, he recently opened his mouth. The Dowager was advising. the Ilanlin students to study both Chinese and Western works of the highest order, when the Emperor chipped in with "do not only learn them, but see that you understand then, that is the important point" The remark, if correctly represented, would appear to indicate a father keener appreciation of things around him than the "poor idiot emperor is supposed to possess. A Tantas in Peking has been currying favour by buying up from various stores things that were looted from the Palace, and has succeeded ni getting together some 300, for which he paid | altogether Tha, 20,000; but as one article alone ia estimated at Tls. 30,000 he reckons he has got them pretty cheap.

The abject squallor of the places aacked appears to indicate an ulterior motive than robbery, and one can hardly help worder. ing whether it may not be part of the official how very useless the control is when such daring acts are perpetrated. We shall feel keenly annoyed if our beautiful Grandstand suffers, especially as bow there will be no means of Credress, as we can hardly hold the Chinese Government responsible when they are not in control.

pression at all, but is in strict harmony with the lofty superiority which explains the Lega lion fortifications as a Chinese precaution in order to keep the "badly behaved foreigners. within bounds. There is nothing that for eign.ingenuity can devise which Chinese in gequity cannot explain away for the preserva tion of "face."
The feeling fermenting on all sides is a very bad one. It is in no sensational spirit that assert we are living on a volcano, Public sentiment is almost, if not quite, as inflammable as Before the outbreak, and this without the aid of any placards and Boxer doctrines. The smouldering fire threatens to break off in little damncs at any moment, and is only being hekl in by the well founded belief that preparations are on foot for a gigantic and successful move ment in the ne future. As to how'soon and how successful that movement will be will depend mainly on the Powers. There is of course "no well defined movement on foot of which official notice can be taken, but the whole atmosphere is alive with significant trifles, and those most in touch with Chinese opinn, that the promonitions of evil grow clearer ever day. The Catholic Missionaries have gone so far as to prophesy a terrific outbreak before the opening of the port; but I think this idea is a rifle premature. What the Chinese expect is a very large exodus of troops this 'spring and they will not miss a single oppor

So far from that individual being dead, he is busy raising fresh troops. It may be argued that the Chinese would not venture to do anything foolish again so soon, but I believe that if many troops are withdrawn and Tientsin City is not given over, the officials will lose their heads. The Govern- ment get out of all responsibility for the last outbreak, and nothing would be easier than to accuse "rebels" a second time. Providing everything was kept quiet in Peking it would be an easy matter to avoid ang responsibly for

The usual dinner in celebration of the Kaiser's brithday took place last eve, and par áde with full salute this morning. Talking of parade, it is curious to see the Japs studying the goose step. They appear to have been greatly. struck by its impressiveness, but what suits our Lall, well built German cousins looks slightly Iudicrous in the dun-colored pigmies of Dai Nippon,
ently for the present plans of withdrawal to be greatly modified, and it seems more than pro. bable Tientsin City will be retained under the
circumstances,'
Within the past month the bricks of mission Churches destroyed in Tientsin in 1900 have been gradually disapearing, and they have been traced to the compounds of various wealthy Chinese in the City. The missionaries are try ing to get them back under moral persuasion. and if that fails will probably take other mea- sures. It is not the bricks, but the spirit which prompts their removal which troubles them, as, its looks as if even the ruins of the destroyed Churches were an eyesops. The man who

January 30th. One of the most amusing things that the native papers have given us for a long time appeared in yesterday's issue of the CAA Pas. "An order has been sent to Admiral Yeh to immediately organize a Naval College at Chefoo and to secure the services of Lord Charles Beresford as naval instructor and se- cond in command of the Peiyang Squadron. This foreigner has already visited China, and was very favourably received by the Chinese,
and British in the Fort at the decision of Mrs. Conger, and other ladies to accept the Dowager's invitation. Words cannot describe the shame and mortification felt at such an exhibition of cupidity and curiosity, as it is im possible to reconcile their visit with anything but a desire to add to their store of pearl rings, pearl combs and embroideries! Fair women and innocent children died during the siege which the Dowager's disreputable connections, if not her Imperial self, were responsible for. Yet these women will smile on her, shake hands with her and may be kiss her and accept the krifts which, whether we look backward or forward spell "Blood Money "
