Again when there was apprehension Of
Misunderstanding to arise between US In
regard to the trademarks. copyrights and
other matters OF kindred nature on the
Asiatic continent the two governments
negotiations and concluded conven-
tons with the view to protect our mutual
interests In t~his-regard. We also began a
treaty for the general arbitration of con-
troversies between the two countries and
lastly. as you are aware. we exchanged a
few months ago a declaration defining the
policy OF the two government in China IN
the Pacific ocean with a view to encourage
the free and peaceful development OF the
commerce OF the two nations and also to
preserve the general peace In that region.
Thus we have been using every effort 10
remove all possible causes of misunder-
standing and conflict between the two coun
tries. and to bring about the clear and
definite understanding between the two
bond of friendship and good neighborhood.
All this, / venture to say, is the result OF
the application OF the golden rule in your
diplomacy and adoption OF the same rule
in ours. and ] most emphatically declare
that SO long as the golden rule is con-
sidered as the guiding principle of your
diplomacy we shall be enabled to enjoy the
benefit Of peace and prosperity which Will
surely continue, and all other far eastern
countries will follow the example thus SET
by us. This must be, | dare say, fully in

diplomacy, which Is now being so ener-

The End of Hinton HELPER.

How many Of you have heard the name of
Hinton Helper? In cheap, obscure board
ing place in Washington City, he killed himself
last week. and the newspapers which carried
his suicide, as an item of news, do not appear
to have recognized him man who was once
a celebrity.
Yet Hinton Helpers Impending Crisis"
was one of the most powerful, effective and
popular attacks that was made against the
Old Order in the South. 1t ranked as close
second to Uncle Toms Cabin. Where the
novel of Mrs. Stowe nfamed the passions by
appeals to sentiment, Helpers book aroused
the mind and heart by arrays of solid facts and
reasoning which defed indifference. The
Impending Crisis" was used as campaign
document by the Republican party, and its
author shared with Cassius M. Clay and Mon
cure D. Conway the glory of joining the North
in the fight on their native South
But after the war, results were different
from what the fanatics had anticipated. AS
Lord Melbourne said about the actual work.

ings Of certain law relating to Ireland, what
the wise men predicted has not materialized,
and what the ID fools said would happen
has come to pass.
Cassius M. Clay had to shoot "free mig
ger,-to the intense delight of Gen. Toombs,
and Hinton Helper had to write a book
against the enfranchised blacks. "Nojoque" is
the name of Helpers anti-negro book and, like
it's predecessor, it is crammed full of startling
figures and forcible argument. But it fell fiat.
He could not still single wave of all that
mighty ocean-storm which he had done so
much to arouse.
Lonely, poor, relic of the past, he sinks
away from world that has no further con-
Germ with him, turns on the gas in his wretched
bedroom, ties a towel round his neck, and SO
passes into the sleep which cures all the heart
breaks and knits up, forever and forever, the
travelled sleeve of earthly care.

Teach and Preach.

A correspondent wishing to set us right, in
the matter of foreign missions, calls our atten-
ton to the fact that Jesus commanded his dis
cip1es to go and teach. The word which we
had used was preach.
We do not possess any knowledge of He
brew, but we would be much surprised if
Hebrew scholar should say that the original
words used by Christ are not more accurately
represented by the word preach than by the
word teach.
At all events, it must be clear that Jesus did
not mean to Use the word teach in such way
as to be synonymous with educate.
The command was, to expound the Gospel
to tell the heather what it was, and to explain
upon what terms salvation was offered to the
lost.
1t is the very extravaganza of interpreta-
ton to say that Christ commanded the elabo-
rate educational systems now maintained in
the Orient with the free hospitals, missionary
DOCTOR and commissariat for the needy.
