We are mentioning herewith, three that we know are first class and that will always "pay for tnemselves" in wear and pleasing satisfaction. Tibet has but just begun to come down, we understand. At the earliest computation it seems Improbable that the water can be drained off the land before the middle of October, according to some judges not before December. For the fields to be thoroughly cleared the level of the river must fall by some fifteen feet at last; and it will take a long time for an immense body of water such as the Yangtze to recede by as much as that. Where the people have the vitality that comes of years of plenty as the normal state of existence, riot and depredation, as reported elsewhere la to-day's issue, cannot fail to take place; and the condition even of th6 Shanghai, rice market already occasions serious misgivings.

But among the vast majority of sufferers, the mere bodily, energy will be lacking to rebel against the general circumstance of life and the particular and criminal iniquity of rice cornerers. Without charity they will simply die. We recognize frankly that the present floods are so abnormal that the best of preparations might not have availed against them altogether, and that many of the dykes which have now been broken down or merely overflowed have stood heavy tests in bygone years. But with all that must fairly be said for the excuse of China's rulers in the extraordinary violence of the disaster, it is impossible for the coolest, most unbiassed spectator to think of the condition of the Yangtze Valley as aught but a burning disgrace to the history of any nation. Much, no doubt, is the inheritance of past centuries of ignorance.

Rivers and canals have been embanked Instead of dredged, until their very beds are may feet above the level of the surrounding county. And to some minds, even yet, it may appear that the floods are a part of Nature's terrible but necessary, to keep aown TkI prolific race. But the spirit of the age is now and" for ever against the tame acceptance of sucn drastic laws of Nature, so long as tbeyt strHre our neighbor and not ourselves; and the rulera of China have for too long en- Joyed the opportunity of acquainting themselves with tnat spim, ana or setting -mw tne error, ui understanding, to be able to Plead the fxfwpa of iznorance any more.

The DISTRESS IN CHINA 10 BE WITHOUT PARALLEL Editorial in Japan Times Describes the Situation. Rev. W. G.

Conditions in China appear to North- on it' "DgDH Pujr ao; "Every present symptom points to the fact that the distress in Central China, during the coming autumn and breaking of dykes has caused the sub- mergence of considerable tracts of the country and the inmates have taken refuge on the railway enbankment as the one remaining strip of solid fugees within tne great compass of Us walls. But no small part cf the suburb of Hslakwan between the railway and the river has been submerged for several weeks, the water reaching rarly to the Customs houses.
