WASHINGTON, December 29-Mr. Trescott,
one of the Commissioners sent out by the
United S ates Government to make a treaty
with China in regard TO emigration to this
country. has returned. He brings with him q
copy Of the treaty, which will soon be sent to
the Senate for ratification The Chinese Gov
ernment very willingly consented to limIta-
tion of emigration, which will prove satisfac-
tory, and viii settle the question as far as the
influx of the Mongolian is concerned. A result
OF this viii be the taking of the Chinese ques
tion wholly out of politics in a few years. In
negotiating with our Commissioners, the Chi
nese proved their right to the reputation they
have OF being the best diplomats In the world.
After the immigration treaty had been com
pleted, they quietly asked il our representa-
tives would not like to enter into a commercial
treaty, which they were fully empow-
ered TO do under their instructions.
The answer was in the affirmative. The
result was another treaty, which will be for
warded for ratification. 1t is very simple and
does not cover many points. The principal
agreement is that China will permit American
cotton goods to enter her ports at a mere
nomioal rate of duty, in consideration that no
opium or nicotine shall be shipped from the
United States TO China. Now, we manufacture
no opium in this country to speak Of and send
no nicotine TO China That country has been
laboring for long time to suppress her opium
trade and prevent the consumption OF the
drug by her subjects. Great Britain's posses
sions furnish her with all of the opium that is
consumed within her borders. Great Britain
also sells her nearly ali the imported cotton
goods. but has to pay pretty high rate of duty
on them. With that duty she cannot compete
with the United States, upon whose goods
there will be only mere nominal duty. Natu-
rally Great Bri ain will demand that she be al
lowed the same privileges in cotton as
are accorded the United St4tes Here comes
In the shrewd diplomacy of the Chinese
diplomats in making this commercial t-eaty
with this country. China will answer Great
Britain that she can have the same privileges
upon the same terms; which are that no
opium or nicotine shall be exported from her
possessions to China The English Govern.
ment will have to decide between two things
She can keep her opium trade and let cotton 90
or she can let opium g. and maintain her
cotton trade. As the latter is more valuablei
