China and the Suppression OF ihe Opium

LONDON, July 29th.-The Secretary Of the
Society TOR the Suppression of the Opium
China, explaining The Society's views on the
traffic. The Viceroy, in his reply, says
"Opium is subject on which England and
China can never meet on common grounds.
China views the whole question from moral,
and England from fiscal standpoint. The
Chinese Government is impressed with the
necessity of making strenuous efforts to con-
troll the food OF opium before it overwhelms
the whole country. The new treaty with
America, containing a prohibitory clause.
encourages the belief that broad principles Of
justice aud feelings of humanity will prevail
in the future relations of China with the
Western nations"
