Wasuinctoy, July 18.—One cf the highest officers of the army, who for ob» vious reasons did not want his name pubs lished, said today: The serious thing about ‘the Tien Tain battle is that allied forces have made the same discovery that the British did in the conflict with the Boers: they find they nave underrated the enemy. This wil! be the most serious ger eral war since the days ot Napoleon, and ove into which the United States ia bound to be drawn, if the atrocious treat- ment of the American minister and tae other Americans be confirmed. avenge theirdeaths would be to humiliate us in the sight of the whole world, civi« lized and rbarous. Although we all expect to be ordered tv China, I candidly regard such @ COmmand as equivalent tu a death warrant. It will be a war againet such frightful odds that the hope of com- plete victory over the Chinese is baeed upon no tangible date.

All Western civilization must now arm for vengeance. The Chiaese must be treated as cannibals, and Pekin razed to the ground. Then the Chinese must be cowpelled to rebuild it as a free city, ac- cording to the prec:pts of Western civiliz-
