The Emperor of China is a newspa-
‘ per editor, and his paper, which is cali-
ed the “Pekin Gazette,” is a very re-
markable production. The unique dis—
tinction belongs to it of having been
issued daily for upwards of eight hun-
dred years. Its circulation is limited
to a single copy of each issue, which is
nailed up on a big board outside the
Purple City, where the Emperor re-
sides. The “Pekin Gazette” is the or-
gan of the Court, and it contains some
sixteen pages, which are all news, no
advertisements ever being permitted to
vulgarize them. Most of the articles
'are dictated by the Emperor, and they
usually consist of official acts and re-
ports. The Emperor's sub-editor is his
mother.
