,ad Of course Mr.. Game became liable for
The same to Mr.. Asselstyne. Now, it so
happens that this Game, the very counter

Killed. his brother in olden time, had con-

worse than this is the present position Of
England. She denies to China the tight
Of projecting her. XVI children from an
evil worse than death. She insists on
pouring in the damning drug, and because
a few hundred chests have been seized,
alIef every remnnstrance and introduction
had proved unavailing, is about 10 launch

Such a wrong heaven and the human
conscience forbid.
We cherish no i'll will towards England.
We feel a child like wonder and veneration
when we contemplate her hoary grandeur
and youthful vigor, her massive etienglh,
her march upon The mountain wave, her
wide reaching sway, encircllng the earth
with the emhlems OF her sovereignty
above all when we think Of her moral
strength and greatness. Bat Just in pro-
portion TO our veneration, are we shocked
with the possibility that such a nation
should Engage in a conflict which even
pirates and %smuggters would be dlsgraced
in waging.
