LONDON, Sept. 2.-Tbe Times Of to-day
eays: Recent information Of undoubted
authority contradicts the late rumor that the
American treaty with China had been reject.
ed. Prince Chungway repudiates the treaty.
His delay in ratifying it is owing to his de-
sire to first complete negotiations with the
European powers. The Times adds -
"Whether Mr.. Burlingame is negotiating for
the advantage of any particular power or
not is Of no consequence if his negotiations
have the effect of bringing China out OF her
isolation. The merits Of the American
treaty are unquestionable. The great point
is that the Chinese should recognize their
cnpability of being impersonated and be
bound by agreements concluded in the name
of their representatives had their treaty been
rejected 1t would appear that China had
not learned the significance of our own de.
cision TO appoint ambassadors.

the Emperor is gain for the people. 1t
has made them feel that nations must sur.
yive individuals, and their destinies must
not hang on one life. 1t will be the Empe'
ror's fault if his indispositon be not gain
for himself and his dynasty. He must suffer
no relapse to find him unprepared.
