the Tungusian is not to be treated with on the
same terms as thu Caucasian races and IA ruling
or coercing those tribes, the saying OF Ferishta,
| the Moeul historian, when speaking of Humai-
oou, the Emperor of Hindestan and father of Ac-
| bar should be remembered:-Hln one wsrd: had
ne been q tcorse 7nGn, he i10tsld hzre been a
greater monarch"
Bunaparte also observed-'sthat he who gives
himselfup to war or politics, must suppress the
feelings Of his heart"
From the Chinese government, we must ex-
pect nothing but falschood, deception, breaking
of promises and treaties, treachery in all its most
revolving forms, fiattery, cringing, suppleness,
while warning or treating with 1t; pride, haught-
mess, contempt and unrelenting cruelty it un-
successful or in its power; but it should be borne
in mind that the tribe of Mantcho TaTtars who
subdued the empire did not much exceed 10000
soldiers; and that their dynasty has become UNI
popular, particularly so under the actual non
arch, whose reign is considered as having been
throughout extremely unHdQp15 INV UhAl uAallli-
guished by national mistortunes: for during the
last 81 years, dearths, foundations, farniueS,
earthquakes and numberless calamtes by food
and fire have abounded
We conclude with an ardent wish that the
Chinese government may see the danger IN
which it is involved, and act Justly, and Tetract
its high pretensions in time; but und er any the
most favorable circumstances we think It will
be long time-the duration of which we can

shortened by protecting and conciliating the
