Excerpt from The Arrow War With China It is impossible to read in the official documents or in individual narratives the story of what happened in China from 1856 to 1860, without being impressed with the similarity between the events of those days in the Far East and the occurrences of our own, which have been startling the world. Mr. Henry Norman has called attention to the review in The Times of the new edition of Lord Loch's Personal Narrative of Occurrences in China in 1860. "Then, as now, a war partly led by an Imperial Prince was in the ascendant; a war was forced on European Powers by a gross breach of a solemn treaty, two Ambassadors on their way to Peking being fired on and obliged to return; the armies of those Powers had to march on the Chinese capital; the Chinese authorities in the provinces were frantic in their eagerness to negotiate so as to stop the advance of the allied army on the capital. Li, then only a provincial Governor, had his little proposals for settling everything to his own satisfaction.

Excerpt from Chinese Account of the Opium War However, had firmly discouraged any relations with them. They were now ruining the bodies and the fortunes of the Chinese with their abominable poison and the memorialist proposed that the penalty of death should be decreed against all offenders. In consequence of this the Emperor at once remitted the matter to the consideration of all the high provincial authorities. Without a single exception, those officers recommended the most stringent measures, and he amongst them who wrote the most uncompromisingly was lin tseh-su, Viceroy of flu Kwang, who was at once sent for to Peking, whence, after receiving the Emperor's instructions, he was despatched as Special Imperial Commissioner to Canton, armed with full Admiral's powers in addition.

Excerpt from Origin and Progress of the War Between England and China: A Lecture Taught as American citizens are, that man is endowed with the inalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness; hav ing early learned, as we have, the lesson that it is the first duty of all governments to permit to each the pursuit of his own happiness in his own way, without intrusion from or molestation to others, we, cannot but regard the conduct of the Chinese Empire toward the other members of the great family of nations, as governed by a kin dred spirit. While other dynasties have arisen and flourished and fell, while other nations have with varied speed passed through the alternations of youth, manhood, and age, the adherence of the Chinese to this great principle, which is thus buried deep in the foundation of our prosperity, has caused century after centu ry to rise upon their empire, flourishing in vigorous activity. In an hour, which may yet be, if it be not already, fraught with immense evil to them, the Chinese so far relaxed from their exclu sive policy as to permit a foreign trade.

Excerpt from The War of the Civilisations Being the Record of a Foreign Devil's Experiences With the Allies in China Then in the beginning of another campaign, slander as well as lyddite was for a time hurled at the enemy. They were accused of firing deliberately on ambulances and field hospitals. And not to join in the slanders was considered almost traitorous. Soon the truth prevailed, and each side acknowledged that neither meant to hit below the belt. When captive in a Boer laager, he that tells the tale was kept busy the whole of several evenings defending 'the British against five separate false accusations of foul play, and it was forcefully brought home to him that there are two sides to every question, audi alteram pm'tem. All experience is an arch, where thro' Gleams that untravelled world. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
