To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
When the Spanish colonies cast off their allegiance to Spain, when Brazil revolted against Portugal, when Texas seceded from Mexico, when Greece rebelled against its Turkish rulers, when the Southern States of America seceded from the Union, when Santo Domingo rose against Spain, when the Neapolitans re- volted against their Government, in every one of these, and countless other cases, each belligerent as a matter of right received equal privileges from neutral Powers. Had England and other neu...tral Powers acted accord- ing to their own laws, they would have been bound to recognise the independence of the Ti-pings, for the utter inability of the ousted Manchoo Government to recover its authority within a reasonable time was apparent. More than this, it was universally admitted that the Tartars, if unassisted by foreigners, would be overthrown, and when such contingency became certain, England was dragged in to assist them. The excuse about danger to British lives and property from the occupation of the treaty ports by the insurgents is proved false by the cap- ture of Shanghae in 1853, and the capture of Ningpo in THE '* SHANGHAB TIMES." 467 1861.
