CHINA.



Hone Kong, Aug. 3, via LONDON, Aug Do
The Pekin government refuses to ratify the
convention concluded by Mr.. Burlngame and
the Chinese Embassy with the United States.
Mr.. j. Ross Browne, late American Minister
to China. in reply to an address OF British and
American residents in Shanghai, denounced
Mr.. Burlingames policy, and said he consider
ed it an evidence of Chinese Discrimination for
progress. He declared the establishment of
foreign relations with China GU basis of
equality impossible at present, and thought the
yielding attitude of foreign powers would tend
to produce war, as revelations lately made
proved the mistaken nature of British policy.
The Chinese text of Mr.. Burlingame's sreden-
tials differs from the foreign version In the
former he is appointed Envoy OF China to trlb-
utary nations.
