Na intelligent observer will be taken by sur- prise when he reads what the Times correspon- dent at Peking has to say on the Manchurian question. The story of Ressian duplicity which be unfolds is as old as it is disagreeable, says the St. James's Gazette. But the plain review of facts, set down in the order of their occurrence, brings home to us too clearly the past, the present, and the probable future. We might have been; indeed we were pretty sure, that the official dementit, the southing explanations, which were passed on to Parlia- ment from the Pusian Ambassador, were fun- ning parallel with an energetic pursuit in other places of those very adeafs of which the Czar's Government was entirely ignorant." A mural de taing has, however, a distinctly inted usefulness as a diplomatic weapon. Words ated sentiments are abnormally cheap in St. Peersburg and it is by fiet that events are determiner. Beyond this amazing copimentary made by M. de Planean out the official ignoranes at the "repared? Convention, the Peking comesponded of the Timer declare that China, wally nille perhaps, is acceding by single sies to the Russoon demands which she
