STEPS TO PRESERVE ORDER.

The Imperial Government, recognizing It's
entire responsibility for the preservation Oh
order at the treaty ports and for the protec--
tion of missionaries in the interior has ordered
the viceroys of China and lankind 70 dis
patch the northern and southern squadronss
OF the Chinese fleet to patrol the lantIeu and
afford protection wherever the life and prop
erty OF Europeans are still apparently threat
ened. Although the rumors OF further
troubles still excite uneasiness in certain
places. the Imperial Government has no doubt
of its ability to cope effectively with any at
tempts at fresh breaches ofthe peace, whether
from the operations of secret societies or the
result OF local or accidental circumstances.
The examination held last month at Nan
king, Nanchang, Hangchow and Foochow
ended without the disorders attendent upon
the assembling of so many thousands of stu
dents the usual numberat Nanking alone
