THE LONDON TIMES WELCOMES Mr.. BUR-
LINGINE

IHE LONDON HINES UELtOMEo hH. ID Is
LINGiME.
While the Chinese Embassy was getting fairly
to sea in the Java, The London Times was full
mnating against China and America in its
boldest manner and loudest voice. In a three
column article, if we may judge from the Cable
dispatch this morning, plteous and arrogant by
turns it declares the policy of England toward
China to have always been one of peace-a
policy which the Chinese received in such way
as to exhaust its whole vocabulary of wicked
nouns and naughty adjectives. 1t is now
nearly two hundred years that the selfish old
East India Company began to trade with China,
and not yet thirty five years since its exclu-
sive privileges ceased The end of its infiu-
enCe marked the beginning of the opium dis
pute, and the English people were SO persist
cnt and so cruel in their wrongs toward the
Chinese that the Emperor interdicted all trade
and intercourse with England forever. Since
then whatever privileges were accorded to the
English have been wrung from the Chinese
by deeds of violence and blood. English
treaties with China have been dictated
at the mouth of the cannon and signed at the
point of the sword. Granted that the Chinese
were not in haste to accord privileges to their
enemies which experience taught them were
sure to be abused, they were not more illiberal
in many things than the English themselves
Mr.. Buchanan could no more go to Court in
the dress of an American citizen in 1856 than
Lord Amherst could approach the Imperial
presence without making the prOstration of the
kO,c- fOW in 1916. Granted too that treaties were
not always observed by the Chinese, 1t would
have been strange that they should have been
when they were signed by two parties but
made by only one power. Now things
are entirely changed. China offers to England
the same terms that have been accorded to
us, and begs her to accept them but The
Times insists that they shall be rejected.
Innocent, unwary England has been shame
fully treated -jockeyed, The Times says-by
shrewd and keen China; English Dukes and
Earls have been overcome in diplomacy by
copper-c colored Mandarins. After being for
many years the leading power in China, after
having beaten the Chinese in more battles
than all the world beside, it is incompre
hensible to The Times why the ambassadors
of the Emperor should first treat with the
Americans who have never beaten them at
all But The Times il emphatic even if it does
not understand. 1t says that China may have
war with England if it wants war, and, forgetting
its peaceful attitude of last week, is more than
half inclined for a contest with the United
States as well. Still there may be no fighting.
When the Chinese dignitaries arrive in London
they will be gazed at and talked about, wincd
and dincd, received here and escorted there,
and this bcllicose vein may be changed alto
gether.
New-York tribune., 1868-09-12

A Committee of the Tennessee Legislature
presented to the President yesterday an official
statement concerning the plot of the KuKlux
Klan to overthrow the State Government. 1t
reiterates the only too well confirmed reports
of the power and high-handed purposes of the
"Klan," and asks that the assistance of Fed
eral troops be afforded the State authorities to
bring the outlaws to Justice. The President
reserved his reply till to-day. In a recent con-
versatiOn, Gov. Brownlow's son, Col. John b..
Brownlow, is reported as saying that the Gov
ernor will exhaust every resource for preserving
order before calling on the Militia, if the
Militia bill should become law; that he would
prefer National troops to the Militia for pro-
lection; and that all would be well if Gen.
Thomas be retained in command in Tennessee,
but that if Gordon Granger were to supplant
Thomas it would be evident that the President
was determined to assist the Ku-Klux in carry
ing the State for the Democracy.

Our correspondent at Atlanta gives a gloomy
account of the condition of Georgia, and states
that it has never been so bad since the sur
render of Lee as it is now. The expulsion
of the cOlOred members from the Legislature Is
but the first step in the Rebel plan for gain
ing the control of the State. The next 1t is
said, will be to take from the freedmen the
power to vote-not the right to vote, for of that
no human power can deprive them The ulti-
mate aim of the revolution is, i'll the opinion
of our correspondent, the restoration OF Sla-
very, not perhaps in name. but certainly in
fact We do not think that these fears are un-
founded The Labor Laws of Georgia, passed
in 1866, virtually reduced the negroes to serf-
dom, and unquestiOnably, if there is authority
in Georgia to prohibit colored citizens from
holding offices, the same authority can take
from them the ballot. Frank Blair is the
leader of this revolution. The people can only
stop it forever by electng Grant.

Gov. Scott of South Carolina has been giving
some Rebels of his State, who complained that
lie did not keep the negroes in order, a PLAIN
talking-tO He reminded them that they them
selves were responsible if the Governor and
his authority were held in little respect, as
they had industriously inculcated the idea that
the reconstructed State Government had no
rightful power, and would soon be done away
with. The Governor, however, assured the
petitioners that he, for himself, felt calm
confidence in his ability to take care of the
uegroes-and the Rebels also.

Here are over Ninety Millions for expenses
properly chargeable to the WARM effect, Pub
lie Debt incurred in the War, and paid of
during the last fiscal year.
Has any one denied that these are true and
complete transcripts from the Treasury books !
If SO, who and where is hef
Gov. Seymour had broadly asserted that we
were spending S15O,OOO,OOO per annum on an
army to keep the South in subjugaton.
Mr.. Wells afrms that the entire support of
the Army mot nearly all of it employed in the
South during the last fiscal year cost but
S5673,4i0 the remainder of the S123,246,64S
disbursed through the War Department having
been devoted to the payment of War Boun-
ties, State War Claims, River and Harhor I'M
provements, Property destroyed in the War,
&c, &c.
Has any one attempted to show any error in
this statementY And if there be none, where
is Gov. ScymOur's veracity
Coy. Seymour instlucts his friends to make
the canvass turn on Financial issues. There
is just where we are happy to meet them A
searching inquiry will prove that the expenses
of the Government except for Public Debt
and War claims have been steadily diminish
ing ever since the Rebel armies surrendered
that Congress has cut down Secretary Welles
nearly half of his demands for the present
year-and that the actual current expenses OF
this year will be less Gn gOld) than they were
in the last year of Buchanan 1t is only by
charging us with the cost of Alaska, the ex
pense of building the Pacific Railroad, the
payment of War Pensions and Bountes, &C.,
that the expenses of the Government can be
made to seem eXOrbtant.

another long article on the treaty recently concluded
between the United States and China The article.
which is nearly three columns long, is mainly de-
voted 10 discussion of the views advanced 10y the
other metropolitan journals The writer reviews the
course of British policy in China, which he charae-
terizes as of peace, submitting to frequent ag-
gression the disregard of treaties, fraud, bad faith
and evasion until leniency is interpreted at Pekin as
fear. Chinese diplomacy is seemingly master of the
situation They laugh the English treaties TO scOrn
and Jockey England into quelling the Taepings. Now
they give her the go-by the principal leading power
in foreign policy They send mission TO defer in.
definitely the clause Of the treaty of TenTsin OPEN
ing the Empire and admitting civilization. They
must be told il they want war. that while England
desires peace actual treaties must be enforced. and
no step further will be taken until that done Then
they will submit, and there will be peace. China will
not be the theater of war between foreign powers
unless as result of American policy. The article
ends with the assertion that only the rulers Of China
cling to exclusion The people want free intercourse.
and il is the duty of England to sustain this wish OF
the people against the rulers.
