POLITICAL CONDITION OF CHlN&-The Imperial
oops re-captured the large city of Chinkiang
from the rebels on the 9th December.
The Stanghae Herald says:
Regarding the political and social condition
of the empire, during the last year, very little
reliable information has reached us. and this
little, if we except the recent fall of Chinkiang,
exhibits no amelioration of the national dis
tress, in any essential particular, in any part of
the land, east, west, north south. Quite the
contrary; for the very scantiness of authentic
formation, especially in the Pekmg Gazettes,
coupled with the fact that it Is, taking il all in
all, so unfavorable to the Imperial eause, is per
Sc strong evidence that the state Of affairs is go
ing only from bad to worse. Indeed, since the
establishment of the Manchu dominion over the
northern capital in 1914, its existence never
seemed SO precarions as at present.
On the northern frontiers, how stands the
case? We know truly but in part but we
know that eastward towards the Pacific,
through the valley of the Amoor preparations
are reported in progress to expel the Russian
barbarians." VIII they be successful?

Why IS IT Ir?-Kansas affairs, under the pre4
ceeding as well as the present administration,
have been deemed Of the most serious impor-
tance. Hence the men who have been sent there
as Governors and Secretaries, were able, tried,
and distinguished gentlemen-distinguish not
only as men of ability, of national political
views, but as faithful party men. And yet, with
the exception of one Secretary, every one of
these true and tried Democrats, after short
residence In Kansas, found it impossible to re-
tain their self respect and yet carry out the poll
icy of the "powers that be-" Hence Reeder and
Stanton were removed, and Walker and Geary
resigned and Denver earnestly asks to be re-
called and restored to his position at the head
of the Indian bureau. In the language of the
Union, there must be something grossly unjust
to the people of Kansas in the policy of the gen.
eral government, or such faithful party men
would never have dared to dissent from it.

Eey~ Hon. John Letcher, as true friend of
the President any man in Congress and who,
in all probability, will succeed Henry A. Wise
as Governor of Virginia, has announced, in the
debate ON the Treasury Note Bill, that he will
oppose the Pacific Railroad Bill He supports
the Presidents Kansas policy. Will that par-
hcuar class of editors who are given to reading
men out of the party; permit these two actions
of Mr.. Letcher to Offset each other? or will they
overlook his support of the Kansas policy in
contemplating the enormity of his daring to OPP
pose the Pacific Railroad, which the President
favors, and read him out of the party instanter;
as an enemy of the Democracy?
