Anam, %onquin and Cochin. China &C.
cupy tho eastern half of the peninsula
called Farther India in the old geogra-
plies, and have an aggregate population
of 81 ,O00, 600. The people are scarcely
equal to the Chinese, to whom they bear
a resemblance; they also do to the peo-
pie of India. This is accounted for by
the fact hat their geographical position
is between the two, the original immigra-
lions into the country having probably
been from both directions. The rela-
tons of the French with the Anamese
began with the settlement among them
of some French Catholic missionaries
about 100 years ago. These missionaries
were somewhat overbearipg and a cruel
persecution of them was begun in 1920,
which lasted till the Chinese opium war
of 1871, the first significant lesson In east
ern Asia received of the power OF Euro
pean nations. When this war closed
a treaty of liberation was exacted OF
China, which Commodore Lapierre, who
visited Anam soon atterward, re-
quired the king to accept, a result
not accomplished without bloodshed.
Tuduc, the king, who died not long ago,
succeeded to the crown in lS47. lie
renewed the persecution of the mission
aries in 1851 and 1852, and many of them
we're cruelty put to death. In 1855
Louis Napoleon sent IN expedition that
took and fortified Turon, but afterwards
left it. A little later another fleet under
another general took Saigon in Cambodia,
and in some subsequent contests defeated

The inquiry is often put these days,
why is there 30 much dishonesty
amongst trusted clerks and others hand
ling money!" The correct answer nine
times in ten would be east living"
Many of the poor abandoned women who
sadden the eye in the large towns fell
into evil ways from a morbid passion for
fine clothes; a big proportion of the men
who come to dishonest practices find the
path when they catch the ~contagion of
of the gaming table. Extravaganza is a
relative term, but wherever there is ex-
t%ravagance the spectre of crime is not
far off. 1t is a small tax-that of pru.
dent living within ones resources-to pay
as a condition of an unstained life, put
thousands prefer selling their souls to-
paying this just tax. The supercilious
smile of some fashionable Mrs. Grundy is
more terrible to these weak mortals thar
the nameless filth of dishonor. They
would rather by crooked ways find en-
trance to the gates of hell than wear
corduroy and brogans that have been paid
for, and eat at a cheap lunch house until
they can find more luxurious living. To
make a false display for a few years or
even months, is the temptation which
leads an army every year to ruin. How
many of these women's conventions that
are held in this country have anything to
say about the corrupting tendencies of
a shionable waste. Fine feathers make
fine birds is the motto. The striped uni
form of the prison or the hideous tinsel
of the bagnio often make the concluding
drapery of people who would rather
steal or become daughters of the chase
than give up gewgaws. A simple modest
life is the safe one. Those who have small
means should lead such lives. There is a
world of beauty about them which is
free to all no price is put upon the en-
trancing spectacle of the armament; the
winds come without demanding tribute
a few good books can always be borrowed
it not bought, and the society of like
minded people can be found. There is
happiness in this career and there is
safety. Ie who are even now on the
threshold of needless expenses will re-
turn &c torment, and perhaps to seduce
and slay you, pause now and think OF
brave Franklin with the loaf of bread
under his arm; don't let any society fool
shame you into folly; the FOOLS opinion
is worthless; your real shame will be in
the first departure on the road of reck-
less living, Avoid debt and live within
your means contain more virtue and
more good horse sense to the square inch
than any propositions cognizable by men;
to make them popular is to lessen crime

There is a pathetic interest about the
story of Mrs. Welie, a woman of wealth
and high social standing, who was COM
mitted to a private asylum a year or two
ago as an incorrigible %drunkaId, and
whose friends now MAKE the story public
as a means of securing her release. I'm
fortunately such stories are not rare. 1t
seems mistaken kindness to open a record
which charity would peter to conceal
forever. Twenty years ago there lived
in handsome style in New York city a
welded pair who had all income of $780,
900 each, and in all respects were the
envy of their friends. He was the son
of "a Quaker merchant on
Pearl street, and she belonged OF
one of the oldest families in the city. A
large family grew up about them, and as
they grew up a habit of drinking fas-
tened upon both father and mother.
They would cit at the table daily and
drink to intoxication Finally the father
died, but the mother kept right on in her
evil ways, and at last turned the three
oldest children out of the house. In the
end the coachman, an ignorant but quick
witted fellow, got the upper hand OF the
household, turned the three younger
children adrift and assumed control
Friends frightened him away, and
hesitating to resort to extreme measures,
they talked and delayed until nearly all
of the children's property was gone, and
their mother was a wreck. 1t would
have been far better to have llaced her
in confinement twenty years ago than to
have allowed her to exhibit herself as she
sometimes does to her old friends-red,
coarse, disheveled and clad in torn rusty
black sodden wreck of what was
once one of the most graceful leaders of
New York society, and n of the inspir-
ing spirits in church circles.

treaty with France, relinQuishing some
of his most important p~rerogatives.
1t was about this time a rebellion broke
out In T%onquin, which the French used
as a more substantial entering wedge to
the country. They continued en-.
croaching on the powers of Tuduc until
1874, they hand reduced him to vassalage
in a contest in which Francois lost his
life. They espoused the cause of a rep
resentative Of the ancient line of kings
and by a treaty with Tudec, secured a
cession of several scar orts. Instead OF
of adherring to this treaty Tudec APP
pealed to China, and the French being
busy at home, paid little attent on to the
east until England took possession Of
Egypt. Besides, at that time, doubts of
the ~navigability of the Red river were
entertained, But the subsequent dis
covery that the Song Kon was navigable,
revived French interest.
AT the same time the French, desiring
foreign outlets for their trade and the
uneasy element of their population, be-
gan to develops a sudden ambition for col
onization. They acquired Tunis, made
aggressive movements in Madagascar sent
an explorer to the Congo, and began to
consider what advantage Tonquin might
offer for trade and settlement. The Red
River, whose delta constitutes the greater
part of Tonquin, is a large, navigable
stream, taking its rise in the mountains
of the Chinese province of Yunnan,
Yunnan is wealthy but undeveloped.
The country along the Red River is rich
and the mountain region through which
1t passes abounds in valuable minerals.
Besides it opens a new overland route to
Birmah, a route the English have long
observed, and desired to make practical.
Yunnan is a province in regard to which
China feels particularly sensitiye. Its
population is largely Mohammedan. 1t
was troublesome during the Tapping re.
bellion, not being, in fact subdued till
the year 1872. To open this restless re-
gion to foreign trade seemed to China
like Offering inducements to another re-
bellion, or to the final ACKNOWLEDGMENT
of the empire. Tonquin also borders on
the Provinces of Kwanfsi and kwang-
tuDg. Both of these parts of the empire
are full of lawless men ready for rebel.
lion. 1t seemed dangerous to have a
European power 80 near, therefore the
Chinese government revived al ancient
and absurd claim to suzerzinty over
Anam, an exploded fgment of Oriental
absolutism which assumes a ~pretense for
ruling the whole world. France would
not acknowledge this claim, and China
would not grant the validity of the trea-
ty made with Tuduc. Marquis Tseng,in
1880 began the correspondence with the
French government, which he kept up
till he was recalled a few months ago.
