New Yobk, Aug. 81.—' Wong Ohiu
Foq, the well kuowa CUiueae journalist,
says that Lieut Wood nearly hits the
mark wheu he says that Christian mis¬

“In one respect" says Wong Chin,

“These results are
about by missionaries who have learned

“But, spiritually, their mission is un¬
doubtedly a failure, and here are some
of the reasons, as seen from a Chinese
point of view:
“(1.) The Christians have not been
in able the to vital give principles the Chinese of their anything teachings, new
save in some few unimportant points of
main doctrine, which cannot be under¬
stood by the Chinese. ?
“(2.) The manners and ways of the
missionary, ' -------- as rule, are looked upon:
as extraordinary at all times. They lack
the austeritv and the dignity that be¬
come a solid Chinese sage. Such quali¬
ties are imperatively necessary in
Chino. For this reason, the Catholio
priests ore making more headway there
than those of any other sect, also, be¬
cause they are all wifeless.
