position in Tonqun and abstain from fur
; ther hostile action on the Red river pacific
agreement is almost certain. China will
! abate some of her first pretensions if France
will show a concliatory spirit. The gov

the Chinese dependency, is ready to reeog-
nize the accomplished facts and negotiate
upon basis Of statu quo; but the establish
ment Of this position involves a cessation OF
further naval and military movements be-
yond merely defensive ones, and, above all,

upon the full letter of her rights.
