THE STATE OF AFFAIRS AT PEKIN.
From the SPECTATOR

While very general attention is being
attracted to the progress OF events on tho
RuSSo-ChineSe frontier, the state of affairs
at Pekin is more critical than most persons
in Europe suppose. During the last few
years a bitter, though a silent, struggle
has been going on between the rival ele-
ments in the Administration, and there is
reason to believe that the crisis in this con-
test is not far distant. AS it is most i'm
pOrtant to ascertain, as far as possible, the
views of the predominant party among
Chinese statesmen, we propose to place
before our readers the following narrative
of political events in China. If there
should be something startling in it, and
tending to create uncomfortable feelings,
it can only be urged that it is better to
look facts, even when they are diSagreeable,
i'll the face.
The close of the foreign war twenty
years ago found China on the eve of tenn
porary disruption. Rebellions, which had
been smouldering for many years before
broke out with increased violence, and it
was not until Gordon's victorious campaign
that the Empire could be said to be saved
from shipwreck. In the suppression of the
TaepingS, Lii Hung Chang, an official of
Chinese extraction, played a part seconda-
ry only to that OF the English officer, and
when the war closed with the capture of
Nankin, and the determination of the rebels,
he was admitted to be the foremost man
in the country. During the ten years be-
tween 1866 and 1876 his career was one OF
rapid progress, and in the eyes of foreign
ers, LII Hung Chang, the Governor of the
metropolitan province of P~e-chi-li, was vir-
tually the Chinese Government. Second
only in Importance to this powerful indivl-
dual came the Emperor's uncle, Prince
Kung, the Foreign Minister, who from his
tact, urbanity, and long diplomatic expert
ence may appropriately be styled the Chl.
nese Lord Granville. Between these and
the regent Expresses, the reins of power
were held and divided from the Treaty OF
Tientsin to the Convention at Chefoo.
Since the latter date a revolution has been
in progress, and has now almost achieved
it's object of transferring the admlnlstra-
tive power from the hands of those who
have welded it during this long period 10
those of men who are, literally speaking,
unknown. Both Lii Hung Chang ana
