as to the Effect Of War.
New York Herald Interview with Tseng.
II will call your special attention to the
fact that should France force China into war,
then it is scarcely possible that with the best
intentions in the world the Chinese could
make any distinction between n~ationaIities.
The terrible consequences of war would fall
upon allWestern foreigners alike. EnglismeR,
Frenchmen, Americans and Germans would
all be placed in the same category by the
people Of China, who apply to all the desig-
nation of yang jen,' or men from beyond
the sea-"
In reply to my inquiry whether there had
been n change in the situation since his
Excellency stated his views so fully and
clearly to the Herald's St. Petersburg cor
respondent, the secretary Of the embassy
said: mo; none whatever. Jul official dis
patches concerning Neutrality-suspicious. OF
the utmost impoftance-were delivered at the
French ministry Of foreign affairs over a year
ago n remain to this day unanswered"
To the question whether COMMUNICATIONS
continue on matters not pertaining TO Ton
quin. the answer was made: Eyes. The
french government occasionally ask us to
perform some service or accord some favor
In other parts Of the empire. Such dispatch
es are the only ones that we ever receive,
they are at once answered by us; but
not one Of our dispatches on Tonquin has
been officially noticed by the French for
over a year. The Chinese government can
rot believe that the great body of the
French nation wish to fight China or make
the peculiar sacrifices in commerce, ETC.,
which war would involve. Suppose" con-
tinued the secretary of the embassy, "China
were simply to say to France: we now
break off all diplomatic relations with you?
The French ~consuls would in that case have
TO haul down their flags, and all French ner-
chants and missionaries would have to quit
the country, while China would mass her
troops in the southern provinces next to An
nam and await ~eventaaiities.'

WHAT SHALL THE HARVEST BET

The question What shall the harvest
be-" is always appropriate in spiritual
point of view, but just now it is peculiar
ly appropriate in reference to that from
which our staff of life" is furnished and
other cereals. Reports are coming in
from all over the west that crops are ex-

crop is particularly good this season. In
Northern Illinois the harvest is abundant,
and farmers are happy. The machine
men, too, are jubilant, for they are reap
ing an abundant harvest in dollars and

being sold this season, which indicates
prosperity among our farmers.
