American Trade With China.


ST. BuA<fia.
There are some interested persons ct
the East who are sndsavoring TO get up
a feeling against the Chinese hill on the
ground that II signed by the President II
may possibly tend to injuro American
commerce. The assumption IL wholly
eratuitous. There 10 not q shadow Of .
preteIt for the assertion. In the Arst
place China derives great advantage from
American trade. For the year 1877 the
declared value OF exports from China to
America was sll. lil. AT. During that
year China imported American products
Of the value OF $3,178, 50i. Taking
these figures alone II will be seen that the
balance Of trade IL near four TO one in
favor Of the Chinese. But the American
imports include specie and the dried ash
and other products which the Chinese In
California export to their countrymen at
home, and which cannot In any sense
be REGARDED. - American commerce.

The plague Is one Of the Oldest things
under the sun. According to Petavius
1t ravagsd the whole known world In
7G7 b. G. In 53i b. @. 1t made terrible
havoc In Carthage. and the people. de-
ploripg the anger Of the gods. offered up
their children as sacrifices. Thucydides
has left . graphic description Of the
plague which ragged in Athens in 400 ID.
c.. and which extended over Egypt and
Ethiopia. In the eighteenth year Of th-
Christian era. Rome was depopula,ed at
the rate Of 10000 daily. Three cen.
turiss and . half later the plague APP
peared 10 Britain. where the living were
not able to bury the dead. There is lit.
tie reason 70 doubt the statement that
200 persons persisted daily in London
during an epidemic which rsgOd in i3is,
and which prevailed throughout Europe.
In li7s more persons persisted in Eng.
land Of pestilenes than had died in A.
teen years OF continued war. At various
periods Of its history London has suf'
fersd terribly from plague. More than
10000 persons persisted in l6OJ-4. and
more than 3 5000 in 1925. But 1t was
not until 1866 that the city learned what
ascourgs the plague might become. A
moderate estimate says that 6s, 5o6 lives
persisted. while other authorities state the
number at 100. 200. Since that period
England has been tolerably free from
the plague. but ii has carried of $4,000
persons in Persia. 100000 in Egypt,
and 10000 at Msrseilles at u vista
ton.
