INTERESTING ABOUT CHINA.
SOME
China and its dependencies have a total area of 4,218,401 Square miles, and a population of 402,680,000. In | aren it includes nearly one twelfth of the total area of the globe, while its
: population includes nearly one-third of ' As com- |
all the people in the world . pared with the United States, the latter’s island possessions being ex- cluded, China has 800,000 more square miles of territory and more than five times as many inhabitants. The population of China proper per square mile is 292 ; that of the State of Rhode Island is 254, and that of Texas 9x.
China is the land where everything is upside down. Thus in Canton the women act as sailors and boatmen, while the men are employed as cham- bermaids, laundresses and seam stresses. In salutation the Chinaman shakes his own hand instead of that of his visitor. As a mark of respect he puts his hat on instead of taking it off. Their signboards are perpendicular in- stead of horizontal. In _ reading Chinese print it is necessary to begin at the right hand side at the bottom and read to the left and up. The Chinese raise the toe of the shoe and depress the heel instead of raising the heel, so that they sometimes appear to be in danger of falling over back- wards.
The Tartars, who overthrew the na- tive Chinese dynasty of China in 1644, are the ruling class in China. There are in the neighborhood of 10,009,000 Tartars in the empire. The “Chinese pigtail” dates from the Tartar invasion, when the Tartars forced the Chinese to grow cues after the Tartar custom as a mark of subjection. Thousands of Chinese were kiiled for refusing to plait their hair, and ever now the New China party has as one of its objects the abolition of the old rule. There | are, or were until recently, less than 12,000 foreigners permanently resident in China. Of this number 5,000 are British, 1,600 Americans and 1,200 Japanese.
Most Christian ministers wear black clothes. The Chinese priests stick to bright yellow. People on this side the world signify their sorrow at the death of a relative or friend by putting on black garments. In China the mourn- ing colour is white. In the United States most people believe that the liv- ing have the first call upon their charity and care. In China more precautions are taken for the preservation of the body after death than before, and a Chinaman will lie down suf pes'ess on his mat rather than neglect to light the evening joss candle in honour of his dead relatives. In most countries the | deathbed is surrounded by weeping relatives, and often a minister and a doctor are present. In China the dy- ing are carried out of the house and left alone in some vacant space to die.
There are three priacipal religions in China—Budchism, Taoism, and Confucianism. ‘The latter is almost without forms and cermonies, consist- ing chiefly in study and ccntemplation of the teachings works of the ancients. Buddhism and Taoism both have elaborate and splendid cermonials. Taoism is the older, Buddhism having made its appearance in China about 1,800 years ago. It is now the relig- ion of almost eight-tenths of the peo- ple. In the north-east add south-west there are 30,000,000 Mohammedans. The Roman Catholics have more than 1,000,000 adherents and _ support twenty-nine bishoprics. The converts of all the protestant churches are estimated tonumber not more than 50,000. Back in the remote interior
‘ of the kingdom the hill tribes are still
nature worshippers or heathen.
If the Chinese themselves are to be believed, the Chinese Empire has been in existence for more than 100,000 years. Other students say that it was founded 2,500 years before Christ: and by some Fohi, supposed to be the Noah of the Bible, is considered the founder. The great wall of China, portions of which are still in evidence, was completed 211 B.C. Printing:is said to have been known in 2o¢ OG ik. 3907 A. oT European arrived in China. In 1575 Jesuit missionaries were sent to China from Rome. eral earthquake shook the empire, and more than 309,000 killed at Pekin alone. Tea was first brought to Englandin 1660. Com. mercial relations between China and Russia began in 1719.
The commencement of the estab- lishment of the so-called “sphere of in- fluence” in China was in 1897, when the Germans seized the Port of Kiau-

and during the next month secured from the Chinese a lease for 99 years of the tewn, harbour and district. Two | months later Russia got possession of ' Port Arthur and ‘alienwan, with their adjacent waters, on a lease for 25 years, with the privilege of renewal Within the boundaries of the leased territory which are as yet undefined, Russia has supreme control. Port Arthur harbour and the largest portion of the harbour of Talienwan are there- fore closed to all except the war vessels of Russia and China. In June, 1898, Great Britain took possession of Wei-Hai-We', and is to hold the port as long as Kussia holds Port Arthur. Finally, the French, in April, 1898, se- cured a “lease” of Kwang-Chau-Wan bay, onthe east coast of the Tien- Chau peninsula.
During the year 1898 China imortd- ed from all foreign nations goods valued at $146,000,000. During the same year the exports of China amounted to $118,000,000. As an evi- dence of which nation has most interest in China so far as trade and commerce go it, may be siated that of the total of Chinese imports Great Britain and its colonies supply goods to the amount of $111,000,000, while of the exports it buys about $60,000,000, or more than one half. Most of the English trade with China is transacted through the British Crown Colony of Hong Kong, which was ceded to Great Britain by China in 1841. During the same year the United States imported goods from China to the value of $13,000,000 and sent back in return American goods valued at a little more than $9,000, - ooo.
