Emancipation In China.

Notwithstanding that part OF the
imperial rescript abolishing slavery
in China is nominal rather than an
actual manumission, consisting in
prohibiting the retainers of the Man
chu princes from being called slaves
hereafter and the designating the
household slaves of the Manchus as
hired servants without changing
their condition of bondage for life,
its general terms will eventually lea
to the freedom of millions of human
beings and put stop to slavery in
the empire. A notable provision is
that forbidding the sale of children
in times of famine, an immoral GUS
tom, although still permitting as
compromise terms of bondeC service
until the age of %.
The issue of the rescript makes
at least significant beginning to-
ward the ultimate freedom of the
Chinese by official recognition of the
improperly of the barter and sale
of human beings. Changes come
slowly la that land, and while the
extinction of slavery there may be
deferred for years. the fact that 1t
has at least been undertaken is that
much gain for ciyilization.-Pitts-
