treachery to the English and
French forces., • '
He greatly assisted his friend Gordon
in crushing the Taiping Rebellion -.hi
1868 and 1864 by drilling a. force of some
3,000 men, who proved most deadly
against the rebels.
' With extraordinary versatility and
energy he established a military arsenal
at Nankin. of, which he was a direc-
tor till 1376.
The Chinese Government quickly 'die-
etwered. that Mr. Maeartnee was ,not
only a liriftrate soldier and organizer,
hut also a most able negotletor.
De facto, Sir Halliday has, one may
say, been the Chinese .Ambassador. •
.So thoroughly. has he identified' him-
self with hie role at the representative
of the celestial Empire that he has some-
times been playfully spoken of as more
Chinese than British,
. He has represented China on -varlotie
historic occasions, and since -1876. as

Legation, be has influenced Chinese dine
