Chinese Affairs.
China has sanctioned a loan of forty million francs, to be floated in Paris through the Russian Bank, for the construction of the Ching-tiang-Tai-yuan-fu railway. Sir Ernest Satow, the British Minister, has declined all social intercourse with the Chinese Court, because the officials responsible for the murder of Messrs Bruce and Lewis (missionaries) fixed the blame for the deed on a few ignorant people, who were beheaded. Reuter’s correspondent at Pekin states that negotiations for the evacuation of Shanghai fu*e suspended, Britain desiring a definite arrangement as to the status of the Yangts; Valiev, with precise stipulations in regard to the nm-alienation of territory in the Yangtse district.
