To the Editor of the "Nortu-Carsa Dalny News." Sim,—In your issue of to-day my self-constituted critic, relying doubtless upon his position as Chairman of the American Association, calls me to task for certain telegrams alleged to have been sent by me to the New York Journal." In my position ae editor of the Chinese daily newspaper, "'Sinwanpao," I am in correspondence with other newspapers, and request have sent telegrams to the "New York Journal." I have not seen the copy of the journal to which Mr. Pott refers, but the first of my telegrams, as quoted by him, has been published almost in the exact words sent by me. The second telegram has been garbled Ueyond my recognition. Isaid nothing in my second telegram about" a message sent by a very high official in response to your offer of a large reward for definite news as to the fate of the American Minister at Peking," and I repudiate the whole sentence. I should have gladly communicated this fact to Mr. Pott, who is evidently a close reader of the Yellow " Journal, if he had shown me his copy; and I must apologise to your readers for inflicting upon them a matter of my own private Lusiness.
Phavking you for your valuable space, Tam, ete., Sous C. Fercvsos.
