States Of the nation, which are mot consid-.

tezpansisely inflated With $50, geo per an
NUN, expenses and pickings out Of the
Chinese treasury, considered the grand
missions headed by himself, as o "great

What does the new constituent element in
the South think OF that sentence We
know that one Of them has ailiyely recol-
lection Of this g electric contact'' of g Orient
and Occident": Pursuing the Japs re-
Gently here, he. expressed the opinion that
they we're " nothin' but Niger" when one
of them gave him blowJfon the head
that felled him to the pavement, indig-
nsntly exclaiming as he did 80, /" Me no

that contact; but the Orient most assuredly

Thefrst (s5O, Oo0) commissioner appeals to
the world for g broader trade" with China,
and for better feeling towards the Chi
nese. He has much better feeling him
self, and being paid for saying as much,
expresses the desire that everybody else
should be more deeply Impressed with the
enlightenment, refinement, learning, inge-
nuity, and Rberalty, Of the people of
China. =,
Well, we are not prepared to say that
some advantages may not flow to somebody.
Mr.. BURLNGAME, at least-from this mis-
sion, notwithstanding that the occidental -
world knew about as much about China
before he came as it will probably know
after he returns to the Inns, tings, ongs, and
longs. He will have most singular story
to tell his master, the Emperor, on his re-
turn, and that is, that the Chinese are not
allowed to vote in this country, while o
vastly inferior race-the Africans not
only allowed to vote, but is absolutely wor-
shipped ; and moreover, that he is preferred
even to the white Americans, who are disfran-
chised by thousands, while African paupers
and felons are allowed to vote! What will
the Brother-of -the-Sun think of that?
The BURL1NGAME mission is o fit success
sor of the late japanese company of exhibi-
tors, and attracts quite as much attention.
The +" manager :" in the case of the Chinese
makes more probably than the manager of
the Japs. What causes great deal of dis
tress in thousand 'cute northern minds is
that the dodge" discovered by BURLIN-
GAME had not entered their own heads. We
shall not be surprised soon to see some I'D
venturer leading q nude committee from
the King of Dahomey with power to hail the.
universe in behalf of said King, and pro-
pose " broader trade |" with the uttermost
parts of the earth. If the dodge don't find
imitators it will be because the imitators
can't find gulls. tIAf5rTE
