CHINA's DIsooNrzNT.
The Recent Outbreaks Due to Eumity
TO the Ruling Dynasty.

~ @~~~ @SAAh ~ AcokIs
LONDON, Nov. 2S.-The Times this MORN
ing publishes a dispatch from it's correspond
ent at Shanghai which confirms the reports
that the troubles in China are not alone
based on the anti-foreign feeling entertained
by some of the natives. This is but one
phrase of the situation. The underlying
reason for the discomfort which prevails In
many districts Of China is the fact
that the natives of the country be-
lieve the time is ripe to overthrow
the Manchu dynasty and to establish again
the native dynasty, which was overthrown
in 1874. In that year the Manchuriano,
who Lad invaded China, deposed the native
sovereign aud placed upon the throne the
son of their leader. Since that time the
Manchu dynasty has ruled and the Manchu
language has become the court and official
language, There has been a constant un-
dercurrent of revolutionary feeling on
the part of the natives. This has from time
to time broken out into armed rebellion,
but the Pekin authorities have been able
heretofore to suppress the rebels. The most
serious revolt was the TAPPING rebellion,
which broke out in 1850 aud continued until
1865. 1t was finally put down by the im-
perial troops. led by British and Amsrican

The mayor then said that this changed
somewhat the aspect of the case. Continu-

ing pistols on a man can't be too severely
condemned. 1t is more reprehensible in
your carrying pistol, being an officer Of
the state. You ought to have stood up and
fought like man, This remark evidently
made Gen. Gray mad, and he arose
and said: Your honor, with all due
