The CHINESE WAR.-From China we learn
that the prejudice of the natives against foreign
eIs has ripened into an excess OF animal passion
which has led to several massacres We have no
doubt that in the course of the next few weeks We
shall hear Of more. While the fit lasts, the decks
Of the ships and the cover of the guns will be the
only safe place for white people.
From this turn in affairs two contingencies be-
come probable In the first place the war is not
going to be such small war as people supposed
few weeks ago. II we let the Chinese massacre
our people-as Governor Lin said we did before
1912, without making the least complaint--we
had best evacuate that sea and that country alto
gether. This We apprehend cannot well be done;
aud therefore we assume that English, French
and Americans alike will prosecute the war in a
vigorous manner, and in concert with each other,
until ample satisfaction for the past and security
for the future shall have been obtained. Thougo
the Chinese of the seaboard nay resist for
while with some obstinacy, there is of course no
reason to doubt what the result will be; it is sim
ply question of time.
In the second place, assuming that we are en-
barking in war of respectable dimensions, it is
quite likely that the tea trade will be stopped for
period Of years All the tea which we obtain
from China comes from districts at small dis.
lance inland and we know that the police of the
country is such that 1t is in the power Of the I'm
perial government TO prohibit the export of the
tea altogether. Nor is there any ground for sup
posing that the deprivation Of the European and
American markets would be felt by the Chinese
as suffering of any consequence. 1t is quite
likely therefore that teas may rise to such price
as to exclude them from the ordinary tea table
and compel society to adopt a substitute.
There are many points Of view in which these
Chinese troubles are to be regretted; but in the
main We think no one can deny that they are op
perfume, and that the question ought now to be
settled once and forever.
