THE REBELLION CHiNA.--The movement and
OF the insurgents in this province and the adjoln
ing OF kwangs with the opposing plans OF the gov
troops and officers, seem TO us much sam
pie of farce in the ay Of actual warfare has been
exhibited in this part Of China for many years Not that
it is childs play to the people who live in the region OF
hostile operations, subject, they likely to be, first
the exaclions OF side and then the vengeance OF
unpcky fellows who are captured from the enemy by
either party, for they likely 10 receive little mercy
and less sympathy. In the whole system Of warfare,
however, each OF opposing forces seems TO be mbued
with such wholesome dread of the other that it does
little else than watch what is done. The insurgents are
believed posses most of the southern departments in
Kwangsi, making Slnchau-in their headquarters, and
have raised their chief 10 the imperial dignity, under the
title of Tienteb, Heavens Virtue. They levy
from the general commerce on the Pearl river, from
Wuchaulu westward, and have crippled the operations OF
the mperiallsis TO very serious degree.

that the power results from novel combination OF

propositions relating the philosophy OF motion in
