VICEROY SIUM'S COMPLACENT ANSWER.

At the request of His Excellency the Governor of Hongkong, the British Consul General has sent a despatch to the Viceroy of Canton with reference to the proposed appointment of a Belgian engineer to super. intend the construction of the Canton-Han kow railway. In the despatch it is pointed out that the proposal is inequitable to Great Britain, since it was with the assistance of British capital that China

There is a large principle involved; the Chinese made a solen undertaking which they would now repudiate. The next step will probably be to influence Peking through the Foreign Office. What will interest most people is the fact that Sir.
