At FooChow the little English gunboat Mer
lin hes at anchor for defense She can land fifty
men, and fifty more were placed on board last
evening, from the Champion. The United States
steamer Monocacy, from Shanghai is expected
every momentnow, and will come up to the set
tlement She is the only vessel in our American
navy Of light enough draught of water to reach
us The community, though largely English or
European, is delighted that an American vessel
cancome to participate nour protection, and some
Of those who have caviled in regard to the main
tenance of an American navy would only need
live at such a time as this in these parts to come
to a better state of mind. The talk of some
American politicians and journalists in regard
to the navy seems simply abs urd to every citizen
of the United States who for any reason has gone
to some Of these foreign lands Much has been
said against our service in China, but there are
men in it who stand well IN the eyes of those
who know their work, and this is the time when
consular Intervention TO prevent violence. as
well as to secure redress is the absolute neces-
sity OF all. 1t is only the weakness of our naval
squadron in comparison with that of other great
nations that has made local protection till now
impracticable.
Admiral Courbet is a tall, slender, wiry, ner
vous man, with gray hair. He is clear headed
and knows what he is about. On one occasion a
Chinese vessel was about to go out when he sent
for the captain to come and see him. The Chi
nese captain replied that his orders were not to
leave his vessel. He then told him to stay
where he was. The vesse! dropped anchor. The
first French vessel to enter was the Hamelin,
which reached the anchorage on tn 14th ult. It
grounded on a bar four miles below and was got
off with much difficulty The Chinese
offered no assistance, and when she finally an
chored five Chinese vessels lay near her. Two
took positions close by, evidently as threat
and there was violent disagreement in Chi
nese council of war as to the expediency of fir
ing into her. 1t seemed remarkable to me
when saw the vessels soon after to notice that
one of the Chinese gunboats was so stationed
that if she missed the disabled enemy her great
eighteen-ton gun would surely deposit its CON
tents in the Imperial Chinese arsenal.

THE vIoE-RorALrr OF INDIA.

The True Reason for Rpon's Retirement
Criticism of Dufferin's appointment.
LONDON, Sept. 12-The reason officially stated
for Lord Ripon's resignation is the delicate con
dition Of his health, but it is we'll known that
various other causes combined to bring about
his wish for retirement. 1t is true that he is
still sufferer from epileptc fits, one Of which
nearly terminated his life last April, and his
health has been undermined for months by the
worriment of constant disputes with subordinate
Indian officials. But the discomfort under his
rule in India which has shown itself more
than once by open insults, and, more recently
the distrust of him by English politicians caused
by his proposal to disestablish the Church of
England in India, have also made his official life
burden, and would sufficiently explain his re-
tirement, apart from his i'll health.
Speculations as to his probable successor have
been very common during the past six months.
At one time it was asserted that the Queen had
determined to give the yice-royalty to her son,
the Duke of Cannaught. and the appointment of
that young man as the commander-in-chief of
the forces in India was said to be stepping
stone to the higher post These predictions were
soon disproved and the prophets then decided
that the coming man must be the Right Hon.
George j. Goschen. At the beginning of the
last session of Parliament the speakership of the
tlouse u SohlnOuS' was oHereu " Iuf. 0oScnen,
but he declined the honor, and it was then said
that he had good reason to expect an appoint
ment as Lord Ripon's successor Mr. Goschen
was ESQ candidate for the mission to Berlin,
recently vacated by Lord Ampthill's death, but
he had to stand aside for Mr. Grant Duff, and
now he has the disappointment of seeing this
richer prize fall to Lord Dufferin.
Those who are disposed to criticise the ap-
pointment of Lord Dufferin says that, by put
ting him in purely administrative position, the
government will lose the benefit of the splendid
diplomatic talents which he has displayed at
Vienna, st. Petersburg and Constantinopie 1t
is not denied, however, that he has also shown
himself possessed of great executive ability as
Under secretary for India and as Governor

resulted in any benefit to her health, and she is
