August 2^th 1868. find that the mrst sincere reformers, and those to whom the well being of the people was an object of the deepest concern, should be found, not amongst the young and ardent who were just entering upon the duties of official life, but we have reason to believe mainly in the higher ranks and amongst those who have grown grey in the service. Since the influence of Tseng- Kwo-fan was exerted to upset that most Quixo- tic of modern enterprises, the Lay-Osborne fleet, we have been accustomed to look upon him as the bugbear of progress and the most inveterate of the old Chines*e conservatists in his hatred of foreigners and foreign ways. The conduct of government in his own provinces proves him to be an able administrator ; while his attitude to- wards the Government at Peking一at one time bo foolish as to openly display its fear of the captor of Nanking and final destroyer of the Tai-ping rebellion—has throughout been one of loyalty, if...”

But if we cross the mountains from the delta-plain to the highlands of Mongolia, we find that the surface of the granitic substructure lies everywhere above the sea, and probably nowhere at a less height than 1000 feet. Were the limestone and younger rocks-removed, the country would present the appearance of a table-land ribbed with high N. E S. W. ridges, and very similar to southern Mongolia if we suppose that divested of it& lava beds. Along the edge of the plain, the limestone floor of the Coal measures rises abruptly from under the delta- deposit, and forms, so to speak, the eastern facing of these mountains. At the entrance to the Naukau pass, the strata trend N. 60° E. and dij3 about 40° to o. E. Five or six miles farther west, it is followed by granite, and between these points, strike and dip...”

Of these basins Mr. Puinpelly describes those of Wang-ping-Hien and Tang-shan-Hien, West of Peking, and of Ping-tung-chow in Sbajisi. Near the first of these, that of Wang- ping, is the coal district of Chai-tang, on which IVlr. Pampelly reported so far back as 18G4. This district has lately been the subject of var- ious communications, and frora its comparatively ready means of access to the coast lias at present a peculiar interest. Of one of the mines in this district, the Futau mine, Mr. Pumpelly reports the produce as being equal jf not super- ior to the best Welsh variety. The seam, lie states, varies from six to twehe feet in thick- ness, averaging probably not less than seven feet. Tke coal has a brilliant lustre * is made up of well defined layers, and has a tendency to a vertical fracture. It ignites quickly, burning with a long flame and little smoke, aijd leaves...”

Mr. Yates said that if five-hundred China- men^ opinions were asked on the point, they would be found to agree in the view he had propounded. He thought that the right interpretation of tbe notifica- tion quoted by Mr. Cowie was that the Consuls had 8〇 frequently allowed themselves to be out-soldier- ed that they concluded they could do nothing in re- gard to security cases; not that they considered the bonds were invalid. He went on to say that Wy-jmng- ciiang had secured the tenant; that the latter had not paid ; and that lie (Mr. Yates) therefore looked to W y-yung-chang. Mr. Cowie here observed that it was scarcely fair ©nly to hear one side. Dr. Jeneins said that Wy-yung-ch<5ng had been dis- tinctly infomied that these proceedings were •eomiiig on, and fckafc he must be present. The Eev.

It appears that on the afternoon of the 10th of August at 6 p.m. he and a Chinese minister, on their return home, passed the parade ground, when they were sud- denly approached by hundreds of military students, assembled in that city on archery examination, and whose boarding places are in its immediate neiglibour- hood.
