The following is from a native correspondent at Peking-Since the return of the Court to the Capital an atmosphere of uncertainty.seems to have pervaded the Court precincts; no high minister, with the exception of one man, daring either to recommend any person to the notice of the Empress Dowager, or suggest drastic reforms in the Government, although she has repeatedly issued decrees, since het re turn, commanding bigh ministers of the Court and those in the provinces to do so. Appa rently the remembrance of what happend in the autumn of 1898, after the coup d'état; when sponsors, high in office, were either cashiered and dismissed, or bagished to Chinese Turkes tan or Northern Manchuria and their protégés beheaded, or proscribed for being too strong" reformers has had a preventive effect, so that only a very few have, so far, been recom- ended as "men of brilliant talents and special diplomatic abilities." But even in the cases of these few there has arisen the green-eyed monster of jealousy amongst the less fortunate ones and a number of Censora and Eanlin Academists have been denouncing the sponsors of the former-even such, men as Prince Ching, the Grand Secretary Wang Wen- shao and Viceroy Yuan Shih-k'a not escaping the venomous spleen of these jealous censors and literati of the old régime, in spite of the esteem of the Empress Dowager towards them, The only one who has so far escaped these She replied, "ich have gota house denunciatory
