Ilrlllali Vael Munt Rtb th haine flight. Mancii3Teb, Jan. 3. The Manchee ter Guardian says: m "The government has categorically statctUhat Great Britain Kill rofiiBe to recognize any special rightB granted at any Chinese ports to any particular power. Any port opened to anyone power munt be open to all or open to none. If Russia has been granted the right to winter ships at Port Arthur, Great Britain will enforce her rights to trio same privilege, and her ships will winter there whether China concedes or does not concede them the right to do so. "lf Germany obtains naval stations at Kaio Chou, Great Britain insists on having a lease of ground for a naval sta tion at the same port, and she will sup port every other power in the same claim. The contention of the govern ment is that the most favored nation clause in British and all other treaties with China forbids any special conces sions of the nature contemplated by Germany at Kaio Chou, and prevents the nation from acquiring special bene fits in which other nations do not have a share. "The government has also declared that the same principle applies to such transactions as railway and mine mo- r'ft vinnrtltpn Talrfnrr lipr atflni! nn flin treaties, Great Britain refuses to recog nize such concessions and will insist upon similar railway and mine rights and will use such force to Becure or de fend them as is necessary. This decla ration does not apply to concessions of territory to which existing treaties do not refer, but relative to thie contingen cy, the dispatch sent by the government to China says that when it occurs, a graver question will arise. "It is reported a similar declaration has been delivered to the Chinese and other governments by Japan." liow'a tuu: We offer one hundred dollars reward for any case of Catarrh that can not be cared by Hall's Catarrh Cure.

There are a great many difficulties in this method of cutting diamonds, as the stones have a certain cleavage and particular veins, all of which have to be carefully studied in order to prevent splitting just as suc cess seems within reach.
