14th September, THE news telegraphed to us yesterday by our correspon ent' at Chengtu, that armed Boxers have actually entered the capital of Szechuan, is very serious. To dare to enter the city at all, they must be in strong force outside, and aust have considerable contempt for the Viceroy's soldiers, as well as a firm belief in their own invulnerability. It is possible that the men who have entered Chéng'u are merely a handful of fanatics, who have been invited by sympathisers in the city they may be the advanced gi of a real rebellion with which the new Viceroy will have much trouble in coping. The telegram from Chungking of the 11th instant published by us, as well as the recent letters of our Chungking correspondent, have prepared us for the news which we publish this morning and we shall wait with great anxiety for farther developments,
