Winnipeg Free Press (Newspaper) - July 4, 1878, Winnipeg, Manitoba The cd Joese. Everything about China vast it Longitude of 70 degrees and a lad of 40 degrees. Its circuit 12.550 half the circumference of the it covers an area of five million Trina re Niilus. About one third of the continent of Asia and one tenth of the in Globe. The celestial Empire make one Hundred and five Kinglon the size of England with half a Doz a principalities like Wales to Boot it contains eighteen provinces each nearly the size of great Britain. All the iia a Al features of the country Are vast w it is irrigated by great that not Only serve to Drain it. But it fill unusual facilities for inter coming . The great Wall contains mate rial enough to build a Wall five or six feet High Al around the Globe. The country basis walled towns it contain within own limits every variety of soil and Climite. And is capable of producing everything necessary for the support Comfort and even luxury of inhabitants. As to the Antiquity of the country chronicles take us to a time Only a Little posterior to the Hood. It has seen Tho Rise and Cul a junctions and decline of All the great nations of Antiquity. Assyria Babylon. Per a. I Freece. And Home have All i of to Ved each other to the dust but China Ditill a Mains a solitary and wonderful to mime i of patriarchal times. Here you Nave an Empire which has had a National Iov emment for years which has survived Twenty eight or thirty changes of dynasty and which is at this moment bringing a and. Taking a front. Rank the nations of the Earth and infilling i Iii for a grand career in the future. Then population 400 millions ten times the population of the states and More than thirteen time the population of great Britain murder at 1 , out., june a Drunken fight Between two men name Joe Calvert and ufred Herd latter Drew and stabbed Calvert in the causing death in a few minutes. The murderer escaped. From what can lie gathered to night the circumstances attending the murder were As follows Calvert the murdered Man with a Man named James Eddie wearing false faces went into Alma s hotel to have some fun. Herd the a Man named Nichol made an unprovoked attack upon them. Calvert then went out and collected a crowd and re turned to Alma s to have a social drink and get an explanation from Herd who again attacked Thoni. Herd and his Friend then went by Calvert and Eddie who overtook to turd opposite or. Tone s office when Eddie knocked Herd Down. Herd jumped up Drew a knife and stabbed Calvert in the Abdo men causing death in a Lew minutes. The murdered Man is a respectable Farmer living near Jarvis and has been travelling a stallion this season. He leaves a wife awl five children. Herd is unmarried of respectable family who reside at Dufferin Oneida township and hitherto has borne a Rood character. Rearer than the population of All Europe and really one third of the human race. Supposing the inhabitants of thai great country were made to March at the rate of sixty per minute by Day and night the procession would move without intermission for twelve Long years and eight months. To that vat population the Christian churches of the world Send about ill protestant missionaries and what Are they among so if the magnitude of the work vere All. Our Success could not be very rapid. But there Are other difficulties in the Way. Look at the Char Acter of the people they Are not Sav they invented printing before the West. They used and in All probability invented Gunpowder aim Tii magnetic Needle. They manufactured at or near the Christian Era silk fabrics which they sold to luxuriant romans for their weight in Gold. They Aho boast a very extensive varied Litera mip. Through which a certain amount of intelligence has filtered Down nto lowest class of society. Educa Tion Lias been spurred on by every Rno Tive. And has been encouraged by competitive examination. The whole o f the offices of that great Empire Are open to the humblest child through competitive examinations. If chinese classics destroyed at once it is said there Are a million men in China could write out every word of them from memory. This implies that these classes must be a wide Centre of influencing my Jurling the character of tiie people. Confucian morality is on the whole Good but lacking the motive and Power of religion it has fallen into a dead letter and a with the finest precepts before them have fallen into the foulest practices. The chinese have established schools for instruction in English and in our sciences. They have mastered every thing that our most advanced students live put before them. They have established a great Central College in Pek ing and have affiliated their schools with they have a staff of european pro tetors. They Are sending Young men to the United states in order that they May acquire a thorough English Educa Tion and they Are going Back into the country spreading Light overthrowing suspicions and those old notions that Nave so Long prevented chinese minds i Roitt developing. When j was in China ten years ago we had in our Canton District members when i came Olav i left there 107. I went we had not a single member in fascia except a native preacher when i came away we Hall a flourishing vigorous Little Church members. Thirty seven years ago Vou had but three protestant christians m the whole Empire of China to Day Tii Greare in the Short space of one decade the number of our chinese converts is doubled. Have you doubled your Christian converts in London or in the provinces i believe that China is to be one of the coming empires of the fog. Xifu sexier h Tail head. Com Zox Xiv a i of. X. A.
