Sea to the Persian frontier, the Russian
army being 50, 600 stronger than that of
the Turks. The possessions of Eng
land in the East are hazarded by the
advance of the Russians towards the
Indian Ocean and the first great victory
of the Car in Asia Minor must be the
signal for declaration of war by Eng
land. The rest of Europe, while Con-
stantinople is safe, has no interest in
events IN Asia, and England may be
forced into ar alliance with detested
Turkey alone.

LAMAR AND GORDON AND COT.
TON MILLS IN THE SOUTH.

1t is stated that Lamar and Gordon
have agreed to make such combina-
tions, when Congress meets, that tie
duty on cotton mill machinery may be
removed. Every member from the
South, unless there be surviving car
pet-baggers who came hither to give
additional power in Congress to New
England, will support the measure.
Western Congressman who hope to
accomplish local purposes, and would
therefore win favor in the eyes of the
compact South, will cooperate with
Lamar and Gordon, and the result may
be the extinction of duties on cotton
mill machinery and the transfer of
British and French cotton manufactur-
| ing industries to these States. Here
tofore New England has shaped at
will, and with selfshness harder than
the granite Of New Hampshire, the
commercial policy of the government
of the United States. Navigation acts,
tariffs, fishing bounties, river and har-
Dor and light house Improvements have
all been moRopoliEed or shaped In ab-
solute conformity with the interests of
New England. In fact, the Democratic
party has been the Southern party, and
in adhesion to lofty principle it has
ever refused TO share benefactions at
the hands Of Federal power. Failing

launches, it refused to draw after it

Woke CHING Foo, the Buddhist ir
New York City, disclaims being g
Buddhist missionary, denying that he
has any mission at all but to tell the
truth about his countrymen, who have
been grossly misrepresented in Chris
tian lands. For instance, he never
knew that rats and puppies were good
to eat until he came TO America and
learned for the first time that these AMI
mails were eaten by the people of China.
The most absurd stories of every kind
were told. about the Chinese and be
.ieved by intelligent Americans. The
Christian missionaries told them, and
the Christian peoples credited them to
barbarous heathenism. But there were
facts that ought to explode such mis-,
representations. For example, he
thought it mi yht be admitted that it
takes high order of intelligence and
enlightenment to govern four hundred
and fifty millions of people and keep
them in order. The United States held
only forty millions, and the robberies
auu murders ana otner crimes here far
outnumbered such occurrences IN China
with ten times as many people. He
thought this noble and practical
showing for China. If it did not rec
ommend the religion of the people, it
spoke we'll for their morality. Besides,
image worship does not enter any more
largely into Chinese devotion than it
does into the worship of the Christiaz
church. The Chinese idols, as they
are called, were simply emblems of vir-
tue, just as the figures of the cross and
the saints are, and Wong Ching Foo
couldn't see the difference in the spirit
of such rites.

In a nice little book of only 1890
pages entitled "Chinese immigration, :"
sent us by Senator Maxey, we ale told
by an intelligent witness, who has
spent his hfe among the Chinese, that
they go to church and Sunday school
to learn English that they may trade
with US. The witness says that they
worship, when at all, in their own Joss
houses. Christianity with them is q
conduit pipe for trade.
