China's Pitht.
The readiness of China to seek a
reconelliation with Japan even on
terms the most odious and humil-1
iating, can best be understood when
the history and condition of the Ce-
lestial Empire are taken into account.1
During the first thousand years or so
of the Christian era various dynas-
ties rose and fell, the Empire was
several times divided and reunited,1
and the Tartars along the northern
border vere eanstut wine of
danger and annoyance. In the thir-
teenth century the Mongols, or West-
ern Tartars, being called in to aid
the Chinese,. became finally masters
of the whole coin -Art, and reigned
over it till about the middle of the
fourteenth century, when they were
expelled. The Ming native dynasty
succeeded, and lasted 276 years,
falling at last before a revolution oc-
casioned by its misgovernment. A.
general of the last Ming Emperor,
Whose duty had been to keep the
Mantchus in check, made peace with
them. and with their assistance de-
posed the native usurper. In 1644
the Mantchus established themselves
in Pekin, and acquired the sover-
eignty of the Empire. As might be
imagined, the Chinese at heart are
far from loyal to the alien rulers,
and in the event of a general disturb-
ance might find their long -sought op-
portunity to re-establish the Mings.
Hence the present trepidation at
Pekin. The Imperial family have
thus far been favored by two circum-
stances. One is the superstition of
the mass of the people, who are in-
clined to the view that the Emperor,
Mantchu though he bo, rules by
divine right, and that ft would be
impious to question his authority.
The other is the lack of means of
communication throughout the Em-
pire. In the absence of railways and
telegraphs, intelligence of current
events percolates but slowly into the
interior, and for a certain length oft
. it
y be possible to mc in ain
the fiction that the Chinese are van-
quishing the Japanese. But:loom:is
or later the truth must be known.
If Moukden, the capital of Manchur-
ia, bo taken, the notion of sover-
eignty by Divine right will be shat-
tered, for if the Emperor cannot de-
fend his ancestral seat—and most
sacred of all in Chinese eyes, the
tombs of his forefathers—he cannot
really be the Son of Heaven. And
the actual state of the war cannot
be much longer concealed. A
prompt settlement, therefore, must

Danish buttergoes to England.
This export, which was only eight
millions in 1881, has increased in
1893 -to twenty-five millions. The
great secret of the success of the
Danish farmer, Mr. Gigault finds,
is the careful working ofsmall farms,
and the maintenance of sufheient live
stock to keepthe soil in splendid
condition. One -farmer actually ob-
tained 15.807 pounds of milk, worth
$160, from three cows in the course
of a year. There is no reason why
the same results cannot bo attained
in Canada. What we need is (1) a
more extensive adoption efthecream-
ery system; (2) a careful study of
the English taste, in relation to which
Canadian butter in the past has been.
