China Harl. Unsettled Religious Thought in China":

A deputation has boon sout outh from Shantung, the chief of which is a Mr. Ki, who has been received in Canton with great honour. A very large and raprosentative meeting wis bald to meet him and hear his message. Most of the high officials sent representatives, and apparently a large audience gather ed to show their sympathy with the object in view. Ous of the apeakers, it is said, spoke for the space of two hours, pufolding the excellencies of the Nage and his teachinga. Sabsequently, a eommittee was formed to take up the work that had heart. thus auspiciously commejice", The fontation was to proceed at suce to the Fakien province, and there continue its labours, We have said enough to show, we think, that the minds of the Chinese are at present greatly befogged on religious questions, and whilst this is so there cannot be any sound restfulness in the minde of the people and no guarantee that real progress will be made in any branch of the corporate life. We believe while there is restlessness in the sphere af religious thought, few people will hope for permanent stability in other parts of the nation's l
