vantages of this region and compel us
to move our homes to the neighboring
State of New-Jerscy. One instance will be
enough for illustration:
On the Hudson River road the yearly COM
mutation to Inwood, miles distant, is
about $780, and there are 26 trains day;
on the New-Jersey road the yearly com
mutation to Newark, 8 miles, is SG5 60,
and there are no fewer than go trains
day. A similar comparison might be made
for all the stations within an hours ride OF
the city The policy which dictates such a
discrimination against our own State ia utterly
incomprehensible. The consequences are just
what might be expected. Westminster, with
great preponderance of natural advantages, Is
far behind New-Jersey in rapidity of develop
ment, and the New-Jcrsey roads are building
up local traffic which the Harlem and Hud-
son River roads, under their present system OF
management cannot hope to attain.

CHINA.


The bad news which we publish this morn
ing from China will disappoint the more san
gline of the believers in Mr.. Burlingames
policy; and yet it is after all confirmation
of what Mr.. Burlingame so often told us about
the disposition of the Chinese people and the
difficulties the Chinese Government had to
face in accepting the new policy of which he
was the representative. One great object of
his mission to the Western powers was to ex-
plain how hard the Government of the Celes-
tial Empire found it to carry out the lib
eral principles of whose soundness they
were at last convinced. Although
the rulers were ready to enter into the
family of nations, the people were not, and
whatever reform was undertaken in the rela-
tons of the country towards foreigners would
be attended with grave dangers and perplexi-
ties Hence we were entreated to be patient
and cOnsderate, to force no violent social rev.
Oluti0n, but to give the emBerOr's ministers q
reasonable time to carry ont the great changes
which they professed themselves ready to adopt.
The events of the last year have shown the
truth of Mr.. Burlingame's representations. The
official proclamation of religious tolerance has
been followed by revival of religious per.
ptOulioIJ uOb Ny lHt government, Dut
(Which is far worse) by the mob Official
recognition has brought down social outlawry
and popular violence.
All through last year the flames Of relig-
ious animosity burnt fercely and with con-
stanuy increasing intensity. The chief suf-
ferers were the English, but Englishmen
are not remarkable for patience in their
dealings with Asiatics, and for all that they
endured the British gunboats exacted prompt
and ample reparation. Local officers in several
of the towns were dismissed, pecuniary dam
ages were paid in large amount, banished
missionaries were not only invited TO re-
turn, but received with especial honors, and in
one case force of blue-jackets landed and
burnt several villages. These summary pro-
ceedings en- to have taught the mob that it
is not safe TO NEEDLE with Englishmen. They
have now turned upon the French foreign

Gen. JAMES A. GARFIELD has received the
unanimous nomination of his Republican con-
stituents of the XIXth District of Ohio for a
fourth term as a member of the House of
Representatives. The country will approve the
choice of Gen. Garfeld's constituents. He is
one of the few men whose services cannot be
spared from the National Legislature. He is a
strong, vigorous thinker most careful stu
dent, conscientious in forming his opinions,
and courageous almost to recklessness in their
expression. He is not so sound on the Tariff
as we could wish but he is very far, and we
trust, after some wholesome interviews with
his constituents, he may be yet farther, from
being Free Trader He will be reelected 10y
majority somewhere between ten and twelve
acknowledgements for all practical purposes
and sure to prevent any contest of his seat.

with questioning faith any telegraphc mes
sages from the far-off land of Cathay, mas
much as the operators OF differing nationalites
who form the intellectual links of the cOmmu-
nication between Gale and London enjoy an
unenviable notoriety for careless and, it would
sometimes seem, malicious bungling. There
is, however, an air of truthfulness in the tele-
gram, which on the whole inclines us to be-
lieve it, aware as we are of the numerous
threats which have of late been freely circu-
lated in Pekin against the institution whose
members, it is reported, have thus sealed with
their lives testimony to the zeal which led
them from sunny France to the semi-bar-
bnrOus capital of pagan China 1t seems that
the anti-foreign section of Pekin rose
on the 21st ultImO against the Christians,
the result being that the Count de Roche
chouart (the French Minister), his Secretary,
number of priests and Sisters of Mercy, were
ruthlessly slaughtered, their cathedral being
burned. The account adds that number of
Russians were also slaughtered. 1t might at
first sight appear strange that no mention Is
made of any harm having befallen the United
States or British Legations, while it is stated
that the French Minister is among the vic
the French officials were hastily summoned
from their residence in the south of the city to
the scene of the disturbance.
1t would, of course, be premature to specu-
late too deeply upon the probable results of
this massacre until we are in receipt of more
explicit information regarding the actual facts
of the case. The natives of Pekin have so
often threatened the destruction, not merely of
the French but of all foreign residences with
in the city, that most people had begun to
treat the alarming rumors which so constantly
cropped up" as matters only OF rldicule. 1t
is, however, noteworthy that the foreign press
in China, of all nationalites, has of late been
unanimous in warning its readers that some
such fmeute would infallibly occur. We shall
await further news with intense interest, as
should England, France, or Russia, separately
or conformity, declare fresh war upon China, 1t
must inevitably affect American interests, II
indeed we did not become active participators.
Scarcely less important to us would be the
result of action which should give to either OF
those powers q territorial foothOld in that en-
pire presuming, as is possible, that the Chinese
would quietly accede to any demands which
might be made. France has long had her eye on
Shantung, and, if the news be true, her hour of
opportunity has come. Wepresume Napoleon Will
be prompt to exact repaIatiOn. Next, perhaps,
it may be our turn. 1t can then only remain
for us to teach the unruly pOpulace to respect
us for our strength, as we have taught the
governing classes to respect us for our justice
and honor.
