Synopsis

Excerpt from Miscellaneous Notices Relating to China, and Our Commercial Intercourse With That Country: Part the Second

If you are asked what we principally esteem and reverence in China, you may thus reply: In our empire, fidelity, filial piety, charity, jus tice, and sincerity, are esteemed above all things. We revere and abide by them: they are the principles upon which we administer the empire as well as govern ourselves. We likewise make sacrifices and oblations we pray for good things, and we deprecate evil things; but if we did not act honestly, if we were not faithful, pious, charitable, just, and sincere, of what avail.
