THE CLOSING OF PARLIAMENT.

Both Houses of Parliament have finished the sepsion with a scramble; each having detected the other in furtive attempts to pass favourite chart- mente in the confusion. The Commons ary out that the Lorda esad down amended bille at such a time that it is impossible to "comidor the amend- ments; the Lords are surprised by an attempt to Jan. omagala the Bribery at Elections Bill at an ya- usual sitting. The Vice-President of the Bourd of Trade avows that he has allowed a bill to go with an improper clause in it, because the baste is too great to permit bis ultering it in the Hours of Lords; the Commona discover in a private rail. way bill the pith of Lord Montengle's Kailway Audit Bill which they had rejected. The Lords throw put the bill; the Commons, the clause. The damage to the particular bills was small matter, compared to the confession on all hands, that both Houses were turning out their work, at the clows, in a state that nobody understood. The Proroga- tion Speech profesema that "the state of public basi. mos permite the dispersion of l'asfiament; but in order to get off by Wednesday, it was necessary to spend three or four days in that lovely patch ing and slashing. In one way or ether, measures Jan. have been disposed of; but some matters that do not come within tbs entegory of measures engaged attention. Lord Roden volunteered an explane. tion of his candwal towards the Orangeman on the 12th of July. His defense was little more than an echo of the surringe; with some show of reluc lance, he consented to receive the Urangemen; regaled them with beer, but pleads that it was only of the sort called soil; joined them. In a field of his own, where he found a scaffold; and address- ed his Bratbran' in a sporch full of what he prob ably meant for axboriation from violence, only they reed very like the Irish incentive 'not to nail a rascal's ears to the pump People here are shocked at the faction-Oght tone of Lord Roden's pacifice; but they do bim an injustice in viswing him from the Hour of ￡rds' point of view; there he is sa exotic-at Tullymore he is of the in- digenous Orange species; all his affection and convictions are Orange; he has Orange ideas of tight anu wrong; he speaks in the Orange dialect, and is too old to lonto another. Some oro scanda lized, because, being Custos Rotolorum, he does not know that an armed and intimidating assemblage is illegal: yet be is not altogether without warrant In the contrary opinion. Uslil lately, there was

It is true that those two negations do not establish the requisite affirmative, the legality of arined Drange processions; but to perceive that (ach requires some cool acumen; to which indecil, sharp Sir George Orey has t bat owly and, since his revelation of the illegality at common law is quite recent. Lord Rodan is manifestly stronger in the heart then the head fe is at only out of place geographically when speaking in the House of Lords, but also ebronologically; he belongs to the past-be is the Newcastle of Ireland; the really contemporary generation of Jocelyn in the one that has succeeded him, and that testifies that the hopes of Jocelyn bas advanced with the times. Lord Roden is but

Mr Elawes, on the tule of ad- mjuing numbing, stoply refused. The chairman was therefore instructed to mova iu the House an address to the Crown, asking for n Commission to laku evidence in Ceylon. Lord John Russell apposed the motion, mainly on the ground that the Committee had adduced an evidence in support of the application,-evidence being the very thing desiderated-and that such an inquiry would embarraza the Governor, by implying a prima facia charge against Lord Torrington, as if that charge were not implied in the very proceedings of the Committee. No, said Lord Juhn; suther lot the Governor be impeached 1 will impeach bim? cried Mr Hunsa. Or, id Lord John, *let the Commides be reappointed next year,

We take the following paragraph from a Ma- dras paper received by last oinil. We will not assert that the letter from the Secretary of State to the Governor of the Mauritius was mare counterpart of that addressed to the Go. vernor of Hongkong, but from the phasagos of the letter to Mr Bonham which have appeared in the local papera, it appears that in substance they were the same, and had he acted upon it at once as Sir George Anderson did, an Indian Journalist might havo intimated the fact in THE FRIEND OF CHINA terms precisely similar to those we now quote.

TO-DAY we keep our promise of publishing a report of the debate in the Legislative Council of Ceylon on the supply ordinances for 1850, preceded by the report of a Sub-Committee of official and unofficial members. la the debato itself there is nothing remarkablo, apart from the unanimity of fooling existing between the two divisions of Council on the necessity for retrenchment. The history of the charge of ￡24,000 towards the military establishment shows how easy it is to lay burdens upon a colony-how difficult to get them remayed.

The mixed Council of Ceylon is one common in the British colonies, and although in many respects it is objectionable all tho members, official and non-official, being nomi- nated by the Governor-it is vastly superior to the burlesque upon logislation which exists in Hongkong under the name of a Legislative Council.

TH■ melancholy death of Mr. W. F. Gany has cast a gloom over society. On Thursday after- noon his body was carried to its place of rest, followed by a large number of the inhabitants, including the Governor and Lieutenant Gover- nor of the Colony and many Naval and Military Officer. The Colonist Chaplain read the im- pressive burial service of the English Church, and few who were present could fail to be struck with the appropriate truth of the passage that "in life we are in death," Before them was the spot where two days before the deceased met the accident which deprived him of life; and where at that very moment, if in life. ho would have been participating in exhilarating and active amusements.

Mr Grey was connected with China for a long term of years, and was endeared to the foreign community by his many virtues. Spirit od, fall of generous impulsos, and a leader in all manly sports, he was also practically a man of peace, ever ready to reconcile dif- ficulties, he never foiented them. He has loft a beautiful character to be cherished by his friends; we may add, he leaves a blank in so- ciety which will not easily be filled up.

They think of those ages mostly, if they think of them at all, of a period of slavery, happily long past; jo Germany, on the other hand, many head is still haunted by the half-fabulous Arminive; and how many partienos have not the "glorious middle ages" still nongst us, with their knights, and castles, and fair dampels, and shove all, their "simple faith" and "ancient truth!"

We were under the impression that " Her Majesty's Consule and Consular officers" were amenable to the laws of their country and could be sued after the usual form. And should the Right Hon, decretary for Foreign Affairs require information on this head, we are pre- pared to show that Consular officers in China bave frequently disgraced the office they hold. and that the Supreme Court is a wholesome check upon men of violent dispositions-ias- perienced in public life-and from early educ- ation, habits, and past pursuits, totally unfit for the appointments they now hold.

THE THANKSGIVIne Day.-Tho large congregations assembled in the two cathedral of the metropolis beard the chofern discussed, so to speak, on its ow merits; but though the Bishop of Londos, sed still more the Dean of Westmin Siameter, went deep into natural panson, they d?ith?c precluded the idea of a divine Interference nor left the matter without improvement to the heart of the Crimino. Dr Buckland appears to have delivered himaalf with his wanted energy sad free dom of utterance. The profesor came forth, as it were, from the school of material nature, and expounded "the oracles of God" wraten on the face of his works, and on the order of his providence. The occasion demanded this appoal; and as the Dean's subject happily confined him to the surface of the earth, and Geschosser involved no underground theories, we do not doubt that his arrmon will be up- preciated by many who cannot follow him into all his scientifio speculations.- Times.

Victoria, Ib January, 1860,

We have much pleasure in giving insertion to a letter on the late Bir C. Forbes whose death soems to be universally regretted. The name is one dear to Scotchmen as recalling to me- mory those great patrints Duncan Forbes of Culloden and Sir William Furber of Flin burgh. We do not know whether or not tho ubject of our Correspondant's eulogium was descended from either of the above but with their name he seems to have possessed all thoir virtues.

About a fortnight before we purchronda pint and a half of vitriol, and this was thrown over the body before the limo.

In doing this, the Bittor of the United Baruke G". setta has shown his utter ignorance of the subject on which he has written ; so much so, that bis Editorial article, to which I am alluding, will be seen to be ut terly unworthy of credit, when the real facts of the east are made known.

THE FRIEND OF CHINA

AND HONGKONG GAZETTE.

VICTORIA WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 20TH, 1956. The cause of the education of the Chinese has long been occupying the attention of Missionaries of all Becta, but as yet, we fear, with little suc- com. They labour on, consoled with the be- lief that in man's weakness is God's strength, and that be may from some of their many scholars, raise up profitable sproeders of the faith of Christ. This is well so far as it goos. but while we have faith let us not forget that that faith, oven accompanied by teaching, will not supplant equal faith accompanied by better teaching, and a better direction of tho means by which that teaching is to be made useful.

ask, what endeavour in there here to do any- thing more then to point out to the Chinese that if they accomplish themselves in our literature to

■ certain extent, they may attain certain offices under our Government ?

The education of the heathen is a great watch word,and Dr Morriann was one of the tenders of those who achoed that ory. He exertions have culled forth unanimous approbation.his untimely death gave hisadmirers the opportunity of show. ing their respect for his memory, and their ap. preciation of the usefulness of his labours, and they did this by coromancing a subscription for the foundation of a "Morrison Education Socie. ty" for the purpose of dissemensting the blem. ing of Westeru education in China.

What to the present time has been the result? We are compelled to say a failure, the institution is in dobt, the pupils scattered about in other schools,doubt an?t hesitation as to future proceed inge. We purpose ondeavouring to show that while we may do much good to ourselves we may still do good to the Chiness and soro ad vance the cause of education in Chion than has yet been done by any system hitherto adopt

To do this we must first briefly advert to the endowment of the society; secondly to its present position; thirdly its future prospects and fourthly to our scheuse.

In condemning so we do the system of edu. cation as hitherto purcal in respect to the Chied. new, we of course do not for one moment in tend to assume to ourselves infalibility or any thing approaching to it, but we say that having lew sectarian prejudices, and having paid some

First, as to the endowment of the Society.

(

and that would lay the foundation for a future effecient staff of government officers. We have rumours of war with China from influential quarters. At present the cloud is only as big as a man's hand, but how soon this cloud may come up heavy with tempest, au one can say, that it will come up and spread over the old Empire seems little doubted. Let us then pre- pare that when it does come we may take ad rentage of the fertility it will cause. This is the interest of the British Government, and it in to them we ought to look for efficient assistance in carrying out this scheme. Wo have the nucleus in the Morrison Education Society, if it be founil ponible so to appropriate tho fonda, Government occasionally grants sa- larica to certain partion who are learning the Chinese language fur the purpose of enter. ing as employes at the different consulates. Let the government only give proper sid, and we will undertake that they will soun see a body of British youths, sons of officers, sons of members of the Colonial govern neat, nos of merchants, who will be able and willing to enter the govern gent service accomplished Chinese Scholars for all useful purposes.

We have touched lightly on the education which is so much wanted by the young peo ple of the better claw in this place, but may do sonore at length shortly. In the meantime we will conclude by saying as something for thos

attention to the advancement of education both This is a matter on which there appears to be interested to think on, that while the Children

We may and no doubt will be called Latitudinarians, Galion who care for none of these things, but to such charges we shall pload not guilty and will maly ask to bo tried by the results of our system.

The Creator has implantoil in all men the same faculties, but in vory different degrees of strength.

We have seen a letter from Mr Reynvaun re- lative to the late murderous attack on him.

The British authocktion in the China sexs most be strangely confused when they read in the Eng lish papers that the existence of piracy is Catly denied, and tha....asporis of such dojogn attributed wholly to the interested falsehoods of public ser vania, No sutal, inveterate, and ineradicable has been this plague of the seas, that column leagues have been reportedly formed for its extirpation, and one of the arguments most plausibly alleged for the extension of our own settlements in these quer tore was that the Dutch, in neglecting the patrul of the se, had broken the conditions on which they were left in possession, and rendered it obliga tory on me more active Power to assume tha guerdianship of lawful commerce. Such duties we have promptly discharged, but political circum- stances here lately contributed to the encourage. ment of piraticat depredations on a scale never bin fore known. The Chinese Government is both week and divnifucted-weak as regards its auku- rity over its own subjects, and dissfected as regards ita sentimente towarde ournalers. Ei probably could not suppress piracy; it certaloly has na inalination to do so. The bucalers pay small tribute la the proper quarters, and undertake so drive the fur- eigners from the waters of the Celestial Empire. Newther of these stipulations is disagreeable to the Court of Pekin, nod the cuterquence has been such an extension of this nyalem that merchantmen have been picked off by those rovers as they wers by privateere in the war time. At length a regu- las expedition was resolved upon at Hongkong, and with the following result:-

We are glad to see that in this instance the Admiralty appreciates the efforts of our brave Officore and men, for the suppression of Piracy and that Acting Commander Lockyer has been confirmed for his share in the action against the Piratos at Tien-pak.

these arrangements deserve to be regarded with the indulgence due to experimental undertakings. It was in the sommer of 1837 that the first con- tract was made for the conveyance of the mails by hired aloom-packets to the several ports of the Spanuh peninsula and to our own fortress of Git Talent. Three years afterwards the same com pany which bad taken this contract offered also to undertake the mail service between England and Alexandria, he terms were accepted, and the company, assuming an additional title to desigantu Ito new duties, became that "Peninsular and *Oriental Steam Navigation Company" with which mow readers will be sequainted. But this was not the termination of its enterprises. Jo 1845 it became desirable 19 extend the line of omma nication to pur settlements in the China S"r, and the service between Buez and Hongkong foll also to the lot of the company in question, ou that is present duties now reach, Hugh under three dif ferent contracts, from the Sodikampton river to the coast of China. For these serviced its remunera tion le as follows:-For ite Panimeular voyages it rrerives from Guveramen the annual som of 20,5004; for ils performances between England and Alexandria, $4 0007., liable to an annual dimi nation of 6001. doring the period of the contract; and for its further voyages to ludia and Chine, the sum of 150,0002. - Extimating the rate of pay. soont hy mileage, the cost of the luty in the Indian seo is found to be mere than treble that along the Bay of Bistay, sod more than double that incurred in the Mediterranean; the respective agures being 41, 64d, put mile for ibu Peninsular service, 60. 94. for the Alexandria, and 142. 74. for the Ludins and Chinese. The fleet of steamers maintained is propertieastely powerful, comprising 7 vessel from 400 to 500 kurse power, and 8 others but liule inferine.

The North American line, better known by the name of its originator, Ale Cunard, offers a more conspicuous example of what may be done by en priss and forethought. It was in November, 183, That wanders were first invited for the conveyance of the mails to Canada and the United States by aramore starting once a month. On this footing offers were made to Government, but were not ac cupled, when Mr Cunard, who had hitherto kupi aloof from the competition, stepped in, and sug gested that if the proposed cominonication ware to be made weekly instead of monthly, the old Ams. ricau liners would probably be superseded in the mom cruce departments of freight, and the new kiwe would pay its own expenses. The result esia- blished the truth of bis calculations. Though the scheme suffered considerably by modifications and delays, yet it was at length carried out, and with returns which were fairly semunerative in the first instance, and which have steadily increased ever sinos. It is hardly necessary to add any remark on the admirable manner in which this norvics is performed. The vessels engaged are of more than double the power originally comtemplated, and are pressctly, in anticipation of u rivalry from the other side the Atlantie, to be still further increased in strength and alse.

Macao, 25th February, 1850,

those aangements deserve to be regarded with the indulgence due to experimental undertaking It was in the summer of 1937 that the first con- tract was made for the conveyance of the mulli by hired stoam packets to the esveral ports of the Sprish prisala and to our own fortress of Glibe Faluar. Three years afterwards the ance com. pany which had taken this comract offered also undertake the mail service between England and Alexandria, lu terms were accepted, and the company, naoming an additional title to desigants its duties, became that "Peninsular and "Orignal Bera Navigation Company" with which mow readers will be acquainted. But this was not the termination of its enterprises. La 1845 it became dreirable to extend the line of somme nication to our vettlements in the China Seu, und the service between Swea and Hongkong full also to the lot of the company in questing, au that 128 present doties now reach, though under three dif ferent contracts, from the Sodshampion river to the coast of Chine. For theos services lia romagern- tion is as follows:-For it Peninsular voyages i orive from Governmen the nonosi sum of 20,5001, ; for in performances between England and Alexandria, 24 0007., lixblo te ao conual di nution of 500l. during the period of the contract; and for itu further voyages to India and China, the war of 100,000). Estimating the rate of pay- ment by mileage, the cost of the duly in the Indian eras is found to be more than treble that along the Bay of Biosy, and more than double that incurred in the Mediterranes; the respectiva 6guren being 4. 54d, per mile for the Peninsular servies, 66. Pl. for the Alexandria, sud 14a 7d. for the Indian and Chinese. The fret of steamers maintained is proportionately powerful, comprising 7 veksel- from 400 in B?? horse power, and 6 others but title inferior.

The North American line, better known by the name of its origlastor, Me Conard, offer a more completowa example of what may be done by . prise and forethought. It was in November, 183, that unders were Krot invited for the conveyance of the mails to Canada and the United States by mere starting ones a month, On this footing ?ders were made to Government, but were not ac cepted, when Mr Cunard, who had hitherto kupt aloof from the competition. stapped in, and sug. gorted that if the proposed communication ware lo be made weekly instead of monthly, the old Ame. rican liners would probably be superanded in the most learance departments of freight, and the pew lion would pay it's own expenses. The result esa blished the truth of his calculations. Though the schonse suffered considerably by modifications and delays, yet it was at length carried out, and with return which were fairly remunerative in the st instance, and which buvo ataadily increased ever since. It la bardly necessary to add any temerk on the admirable manner in which this service is pesformed. The vemela engaged are of more than doable the power originally contemplated, and are presently, in anticipation of a rivalry from the ather side the Atlanta, to be still further increased in strength and size. For beauty and serviceability this degt of steamers could hardly be mished in ￡ue"Lan of the C

The Weide has been fam fortunate than the two olber. Owing parily to the circumstances attending its origin, partly to the peculiar charac ter of the service, and parily to some error which have repeatedly caused a modification of terms, il certainly appeace to have been but partially enc. comful either as a commercial speculation or a public enterprise We do not mean to smart that the system is not an improvement upon the old method of communication by wiling packeta prior to 1840, but it scarcely seems to have atisfied the requirements of the Goretument, or the expools. tions of the contractors, though it should not be concealed (Las the difficulties of the novice extraordinary.

Altogether, six fee steamers have been lont withio nimo years-a series of ca lamities etficiently attesting the arduous charac ter of the servico; while the fact that it no longer Afforda the most rapul means of communication, end that the most lucrative part of a freight has dorted the line for that by the North America steners, officiently establishes the secossity of an immediate change of route.

It has now been indisputably established that all such services as the conveyance al maila to Coreign poria are better and more economically performed by the agency of privata enterprise than by the direct action of of Government, lodapendently, Loe, of this consideration, the splendid duet of ves- els which has thus boon called into being is no in significant edition to the resource of the country, for a better school of engineering and seamenship then thepe linee maintain in nowhere to be found. No doubt, it is highly desirable for the public io- Lorente hat a strict supervision should be exercised over contracte so honey in tusir liabilities and so important in their doties, but we confess thats per usal of the evidence takon has led us to conclude that the Gorermineal authorities were father Loo strict than too lax in their care of the public money. In one instance they aceepled, to the prejudice of approved competitors, the lower lander of parties who were clearly incompetent to discharge the duty, and who probably escaped more serious mis hape by failing at the cutest to make good their terme, Time, however, usually works for cheap Deas, a well as improvement, and we have llule Independenca, beta deabs but that a few year will non ero these ad-stie, vebeiner

ENTERFUE FOR an Indian Travellur.- At the meeting on the 10th Doc. of the Geo- graphical Society, Dr Gutzlaff, who has just re- turned from China, mentioned the important news, that the Celestial Empire is now open to all travellers-the emperor having recently taken off the old prohibition.

In the plan of Australasian constitutions pow before Parliament, there is very little provision for separation between the powers of the colony and the powers of the empire, Tho municipal govern- mrot may legislate upon almost any subject it pleases. It may, for example, without the slight cat infringement of the written constitution, make law for grunting money to foreign power, of for placing the commead of her Majesty's troops such troops out of the enlany, or for sequestrating in the bands of provincia! officer, or for sending

GENERAL BUMMARY, From the Overland Calcutta Ster, Polruary 1.)

The Bombay Express with the mails of the 24th December arrived in town on the Sim January, mak ing the voyage akogether in 30 days. The stick however atoned for this (lately unexampled) speed. by loitering on her way, so as to 10h the Cowcolly light house at the Bandheads on the evening of the 4th instant, and deliver her maile at the Ociopita l'out OfBos at 8 r. on the 6th. We earnedly hope that the Peninsular Company, while congratulating koolf on the loadiness of public soppart, will do something to remove the cause of complaint which have of late been asserted to be rifa. The Site stourmets ba tween Alen and Bombay are the subject of much in- vective from our local financial reformass, bet oven they can occasionally strike out, haply to raise a blush on the iron chooks of their Peninsular compo titors. In this instance, the Bentinck's mails wors delivered in Calcutts, accompanied by an anion of the nowe published at Madras on the arrival of the ex- press at that Presidency from Bombay? In other words, the state steamers (much abused as they are) and the state land post (much abused as 1?2 in) landed the Looden news of the 24th December at Madena, before the Bentinck; Just as they did at Calcutta. The extras of the North-western papers reached town only thirty-six hours after the Bentinck if the at- rangements of the P. and O. Company are not im- proved, we shall be presently reduced to look for the express from Agra, in case of a break down in that from Bombay direct. While we are victim of bad management on this side Saen, it is precedently an- noying to read of such achievements in Europe at the Times chronicles, that a copy of that paper prinand in London at 3 p.st, was placed in the hunde of the Pronch President by half past two 2. m., with the Parisian news of the proceding day recorded in its columce. With us day appear of as liule, as in Eu- rope hours are of great importance.

Docenic Invalligence is of alender character. It is reported that Me Dumpior, the taperintendent of Police, is to make way for Mr A. J. Millan that of fice. The origin of the change is suributed to s tain arbitrary proceedings on the part of Mr Dam pier which have ineurred the displeaside of the Ban Fat Genomm.. Hamenta sann cum shot. Ma.

No doubt, as has elready been done such acts on the part of Govern ment will be urged in proof of its determination carry out the principles of Ads Buenalty's reasoning in the matter of the Black Act: in proof that when ever the sturdy British settler who is aggrieved makes his voice heard, the State will interfure to remedy his wrong and punish the inculpated official. There are not wanting those, who knowing what the past has boot, see in the present activity and vivaciousness de evinced in such salts only the desire to mitigate

Two Lady Mary Wond irom Bombay the 9th and Singapore the 29th ultimo, arrived on Saturday morning. She resumed her voyage for Shanghai on Monday forenoon with her original cargo of Malwa and about a dozen passengers including three Chinese Gentlemon en ronds for Peking. Whether the Chinese were excited by curiosity, regard to safety, or speed we know not, but if the Steamer makes a monthly voyage to the north, she will prob- ably have a good many passengers both ways. The panage money (150) is rather evere; perhaps a lower rate would be more comuner. ative.

The advices from England via Bombay are to the 7th of January; from the Atlar for lu- die of that dato (the only English paper wo have been favoured with) we annex a selection of extracts including soms editorial articlos from the morning papers.

The improvement in the Tea market is gra- tifying, and with moderate shipments from this quarter, there is a fair prospwet of a continur. tion of remunerating prices.

It is expected that the Lady Mary Wood will return from Shanghai before the close of the month, bringing maila and freight for the usual monthly steaner which sails from hence on the Juth.

THE RACKET COURT OF THE ROYAL ARTILLERY.

We notion with much concern that Captain Tal bot, of the Royal Artillery, has been obliged to apply to the Insolvent Debtors' Court, to relieve him of the expeness incurred in defending a case of (nominal) sisault and battery, in which be must be considered us having merely acted as an agunt. It appears that the Artillery Racket Court was built some years sinea by subscription shares, sad that Captain Talbot is the treasurer thereof. Some of the members feeling dimatlased with their mark- er, one Jefferies, instructed Captain Talbot to eject him, vi et armis, if he again wade his appearnco in the court mandato which the gallant tresorer obeyed, by causing the marker to be ejected by n ble of armed men. Jefferice, bereupon, brought his action for the uult, and Captain Talbot bo- came responsible for the costs, &o, to the amount of several hundred pounds.

Now, we have nothing to say to the propriety of the ejection in the first_instance; but, looking at the position of Captain Talbotin the matter, we do think that the credit and honour of the officers of tho Artillery will stand a chands of being serious ly compromised if they do not make a short tu rescue him from ble predicament.

As a military engineer his talents were highly priz- ed in India. He filled there many very important and responsible situations, and finally wound up his services in that part of her Majesty's dominions by distinguishing bunself as an engineer officer at the great bonks under Lord Hardinge. La fodia his engineering skill and ability jotroduced him to the lats Lord Auckland, when Governor-General, who on L'olonel Irvine return to England, now about three years since, appointed him aucceruor to the late Colonel Brandreth, .., as Chief of the Ad. miralty Engineering and Archictecturol department Sometect Houre.

THE RACKET COURT OF THE ROYAL ARTILLERY.

We notice with much concern that Captain Tal- bot, of the Royal Artillery, has been obliged apply to the Insolvent Debtors' Court, to releve ham of the expenses incurred in defending a caso of (nominal) assault and battery, in which he must be considered so having marely acted as an agent. It appears that the Artillery Racket Court was

buik some years since by subscription shares, and of the members foeling dimatiefied with their mark. that Captain Talbot is the treasurer thereof. Some er, one Jefferies, instructed Captain Talbot to sject bim, vi et armis, if he again made his appenrauce in the court mandate which the gallami treurer obeyed, by causing the marker to be ejected by a file of armed men. Jefferice, hereopon, brought his action for the assault, and Captain Talbot bo- came responsible for the costs, &co, to the amouot of several hundred pounds.

Now, we have nothing to say to the proprialy of the ejection in he first instance; but, looking at the position of captain Talbot in the matter, wo do think that the credit and honour of the officers of the Artillery will stand a chance of being serious ly compromised if they do not make an effort to rescue him from his predicament. Upon the old principle in faw, Qui facit per illum facit per se, the officers who are shareholders in the Racket Court are the raul offonders, and, therefore, mural. by lisble for the coat to which they have exposed their functionary.

From these incontestibla facts, we may draw ibe following conclusions, vIN:-

2nd, That the progress of improvement-the inlet of an water through the plain, and the free ventila- tion produced by the clearance of jungle, will render the plain as healthy as any other part of Labuan, sod Labuan sa boskhy as Singaporel

This opinion was based on the fact-fst, that the surrounding countries supported a population as numerous 30 any in the Archipelago with the excep, tion of Java; and 2od, that during the prevalence of fever on the plain in 1848, a body of about 30 Chi- In his reply to the address from the Singaporeness carpenter working on the rising gromud, con- Chamber of Commerce Lord Dalhousie stated tinued perfectly healthy." that Her Majesty's gurerament had appointed Sir James Brooke on a special mission to Siam and Cochin-China in order to placa our com- mercial relations, with these countries on a more satisfactory footing.

The preceding at the second monthly meeting the Stadstical Boelety for the current season, held Monday erenlag. were renderd nusually seeing by the presence of Dr Gutalaff, the Chiume traveller and now the chief interprater attached to the British establishments in Chins. This gentlemen lakd before the society a collection of tabuler statements relating to the topography, population, government, and True /mem of the Chinese empire, as gathered by bim from the most authentic mourous yet accessible to an European Inquirer, and in commenting upon the mast remarkable facts brought to view by these papers, conveyed to his audience a very clear and graphie des- cription of the political and social condition of the Chi- Dos, particularly as these bave been affected by the svents of the last eight or ten years.

The principal effect of the learned gentleman's mo- moir and of the information subarquendly elicited by disenssion, was the removal of nearly all apparent ground for the incredulity with which the accounts hi- therts given of the population of China have been com- monly received (a Europe.

{From the Times, January 23.) Even the members of the Peace Boriety must re- joice to hear that thres of Her Majesty's vessels have safely returned from performing a desperate service without caaashy or damage, for though war be at all times so evil in is surely a less evil according a lean ggregate mischief bas been wrought by it opera tions. Four or five year ago it was credibly report ed, and nover authentically depied, that in a mere civil broil between two of the interior provinces of China upwards of 100,000 lives were lost on each side, though the quarrel, even aker these results, was considered ao cominoo.place and insignificant as to provoke no notice whatever on the part of Govora: inent. This is one mage of warlike science; what we are now going to relate exemplides another, and the reader can form his judgment between the two as respects the interests of human life only.

The last Chinese mail loft us in some uncertainty respecting the success of the expedition, consisting of the Fury, Columbine, and Phlegethon, despatched ngainst the pourious pirate chief hapag-trai; but all ziety on this scare has been relieved by the des- patches just published. From the private corree puodence and other papers which have reached wa extract the following narrative, remarkable no less for its incidental lumrations of Chinese character then for the description of the engagement which it cousins. It will not be found very easy to track the proceedings on the chart, for tue surveys of the south weaarn coast of Chloa sis far from perfect, and be- sides this, the names of places as rendered into our vernacular tongue resemble each other so closely

with the match still lighted in his hand. A chance shot bad probably aved the whole of the boat's crew, In the large junks which ware captured everything was found in such fighting order is would not kato disgraced the smartest European frigute.+ Quarter wese cleats, sponges and rammers by the side of the gune, ammunition in flannel cartridges, carefully slowed away, and all screened from accident by blankets. The ahoals and banks of the river of course afforded considerable cilities of escape to the pirato crews, but the Coohin-Chinese, exaporated by in- omerable acts of barbarity, and overjoyed at soun expected a turn of the tables, soon surrounded the fugitives with spears and knives, and probably gave a pretty good account of them, while every antive fort and garrison along the shore yielded its quose against those implacable enemine. After executing this duty, the British squadron returned to Hoi-how, where they were received with Iraaspoti of gratitude and welcome. The opinions entertain ed by the patives of the service to peace and cons. merco hich had been thus performed may bo learet from a "necessary communication addressed by the Chinese Governor of Hainan to the British s?- thorities at Hon hong, and we are sure our renders will have been pleased to see from the promotion list that the gallantry of those engaged has been as well appreciated at home.

Perhaps at the next meeting of the Peace Society some person will favour the world with a definition of what, in these days, is still to be considered pi racy, and we shall be happy to apply the rules to the case before us.

Un leaving Hongkong the three British vemula proceeded westward on their search, collecting intel- ligence of the pirates from port to port, and often mniceting with frank traces of their recent prosenco, On the fourth morning of their expodition they learnt | that Bha pag-i had just sailed from Hainan, that he had alroked and totally destroyed ? considerable trading town on the peoinsula, and that he had made off in the direction of the numerous wild islende at the head of the gulf Thus instructed, Captain Hey immediately sailed for Hoi-kaw, on the island of in, and put biself is communication with to, the Governor-General of the district. By this officer and his colleagues he was most graciously received in an illuminated artificial garden, to the extreme joy of the local population; and no wonder, for such was the audacity and power of the pirate chief, that he had actually auempted an attack upon this city, and had only been defeated by the shoals, which prevented is heavy junke from coming into action. The Man. darios professed great anxiety that Captain Eley and his officers should stop to breakfast in state on the following morning; but, on bearing that in the Bri. tish service such entertainments were usually post. ponad till the work in hand was completed, they readily acquinaced, and immediately reinforced the expedition with a quota of eight junks, onerying 100 antive soldiers, under the command of Hwang, na officer who had formerly held office in these waters, and who bad been raised to the rank of Mandarin

Whether or not that ordinance is repealed by the present one is not condescended on by the legislative Council, but they may nothing we infer we are blessed with two ordinances saying the same thing to a cor- tain extent. Bir Heury Pontinger's ordinance however stops short on the side of giving the Governor more power than he ought to have. Clause IV. commences the difference between

the former and the present ordinance-

"IV And be it frisber euncted and ordsleed, That, should sech Court or Magistrata as aforesaid be of Uplaton

or valemity of property tried or lavestigated thatch Case of Crime or statemeanour would be Hapreme Court or a Concalar Court having

The

thereaver, it shall be lawful for each Court or Magistrala lo releve to proceed therein, and to refer the Complaint to ach Supreme or Consular court; Provided always that not-

where would that gentleman's remedy have won had be been punished under clauses IV or V. of this Ordinance. The Governor is cer tainly not above law, but it is doubtful whether or ont he could be brought into the Supreme Court; if not, think of the trouble and expense of the appeal to England against such an act of injustice.

The anxi Class VI is the most extraordio ry we ever remember to have seen, it empowers an English Consible to follow the chase of an Eng. glish criminal to the Chinees territories and thers without asking the leave of any one to drug that ariminal from under the shelter of the lawa of Chine. Let us reremo ibe can. Suppon that Any Chinese Governor were to inven a deores or special adict that Chiness offcere of police should be entitled to follow and apprekend urimisala un this island without making our leave, and suppo ie some Chinese police officer acting according to his instructions, did carry off froin, this island a criminal we would like to know what we would call bat. And it because we have the power that we dere do this pisos of injustico ?" That is a withstanding such Refusal ft shall be lawin for the Gorer- nor of Hongkong bulag the Chiet Euperlptendent of Trade

the chase will never be followed far into the do sccundlagly as if such Retusal had not been made Hore is a clause to put under the eyes of Eng. minions of the Emperor of China; but for ourselves we look upon is on the infringunsent of a principle, and we can res no disurence between the capture ihmen. You are brought before a Magistrate for an offence committed in the manner men-

of a man ane yard above bigh water mark, and the tioned by the ardmance, your caso is heard,

capture of a mno one thousand miles inland from the Magistrate with reison says I cannot take

cases, and nothing can justify eliber capture. We cognizance of this let it go to the Supreme Court, the same place, the principle in bee lo buth may aller all read this clause wrong but she sin it is too heavy for me to deal with. This how ever may not be permitted, the Governor be-gularity of it induced me to read it ever more thas ing the Chief Superintendent of Trade may send ooce, if there be any other messing, we hope the an order for the Magistrate to carry the case Legislative Council will let us know what it is, by to the end. The Magistrate night by chance affixing some interpretation Clause for as li stands now we can only make it out as a gross violation bo a lawyer and know very well that ho was exceeding his powers, and though protected of the treaty, which if earned out sught to prem & us over opening our mouths se to Chinese, bad faith by the Warrant of the Superintendent of Trade, be might probably want to know what punish-in treaties, and what is still more singular the oc

curs in an ordinance ostensibly for the better ear- ment he was to award, this might perhapsbe ex- actly what was wanted. The singular part in rying out the Treaty. this clause in the interference of the Superinten dent of Trade being the Governor for it se the power only exists while no individual use of 'de's warises from all com quenom which the two offices, but naturally as this is a Coa-ay arise from their acts. This is all right and as it should be, it mvus trouble, we know where our sular Ordinance the Superintendent of Trade remedy, liss and we trust that should say Governar takes the precedence of the Governor. The ever tyrannically use the power given him by this interference of the Superintendent of Trade, ordinance, that he may be taught by the verdict of then, strikes us with astonishment. Wo have a

Jury in the preme Court the dangers of mak Supreme Court, complete with Judge, jury and ing and administering auch lawa. Attorney General, ready and able to do justice on all Criminals. A magistrato think it the best place to send a criminal for justice, when up steps the Superintendent of the Frade, who you would imagine had no earthly comection with criminal law, and anya na, b?, that came carol be sent to the Supreme Court proceed with it yourself. The mingistrate of course cannot ask for reasons, and of course the only ono the public is like to get is le Roi le peut We do not know what others may call this proceedling, we call it a heavy blow and great discouragement to the Supreme Court. The above Cinuno is not so bad for an attempt on the liberty of the subject. But wo think tho next altogether of a superior naturo-

Our Contemporary of the Hongkong Register appears to congratulate us very warmly, no our suggestion of the division of the clumsy Draft Ordinance having been carried out; also that the complaint should come frun the Chinese Authorities, and that parties should be arrested by the warrant of some responsible person and not be taken up at the will, or pleasure of ignorant, or corrupt policeman, and our Con- temporary in his urally facetious manner bege to agree in all this, and is happy in presenting the measure to us, moulded after our own heart. We certainly do not wish to put a stop to our Contemporary' jocularity,but we hope, that when we are the subject of it be will come near the truth as the nature of the joke (at the very least) will admit.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE

(From the Hongkong Register, April 2.) On the 20th ultimo, two large fshing boats, sailing in company, were attacke! by pirates when off Stanley Point. One of the fishing boats W captured and married off with her crew. The other succeeded in escaping loto Stanley Bay.

On the 7 ultimo, another fishing boat was Quacked near the same place, and mlbed of 860,

‧ quantity of cash, and veme clothing.

On the 28th ultimo, a Chinaman, coming from Aberdoan to Victoria, was stopped near the final turning beyond the Naval Stores by four armed mao, who plundered him of an umbrella, and part

of his clothes.

Stolen, early on the morning of the 30th ukimo, from the house of 1. Nuscrwnujce, Gaga Street, a small box, containing a gold watch and guard, a ailver enot box, and other sticker. The box (10- ken open) and part of its contents, were sutarquent ly found in an adjacent empty house; suspicion attaches to a servant who is in custody.

About 5 A. M. 30th ultimo, a fishing boat, mil- ing over Hap-le-chow, (the Island opperite Aber-

dora,) was attacked by pirates, and carried off with her crow.

The

Ao act of the most flagrant injustice bas just benn committed against a British resident in Oporto. In the year 1899 Mr C. marsied■ Portuguese lady, the only child of faron B a man of inmenan werkk for Portugal, being worth upwards of ￡130,000 Iron Derbully promised to give his daughter a par tion of ￡30,000, but a disagreement having occurred ansa timon after the marringe between kini and his son-in-law, he refused to fulfil his promiso. Thrase) Brose a suit, the result of which was that the lady was declared to be entitled to the promised ponion, on condition that if it aboubl axceed that shore of her futhor's property to which she would be lawfully entitled at bis death, who slowlu register or manifest such excess in the manner prescribed by Ir in much creen. As Men C. was at the time the only child and sole heiress of the baron, and her marriage por- tion, instead of exceeding, fill far short of her ex. pected Inheritance, the requirement of the law did

zist apply to her case, sul de sach mediscattiva could, therefore, be made. Boma lime after, how. ever, the old gentlemno married a young wife, upon which Meu C, judging that the proper moment had strived for complying with the required formality, came forward to do so, but the coura to which she applied for the purpose decided that it could not be done until after the death of her father, as, consider ing that his w?o was young and likely to havo a fa-

A vina betweco parties for the purpose of form- ing Government is a different fact, and has a different interpretation, from such a union between parties in apposition.

There is a positive necomsity, according to the system of our Consitution, that some Government shall exist, capable of carrying on the affairs of the country-some Government composed of men expable, in point of intellectual capacity, of can ducting the ratious and difficult operations which are intrusted to the Ministers of the Crown, and at the same timer possessed of such station and character as to offer an acceptable guarranio to the country for the faithful and honest fulfilment of the requirements of the public service. If there exists no party whoso lemilers Batisfy these candi tions-if no faction is able to furnish a working Administration, a conlition becomes inevitable; and such an arrangement is usually facilitated, by the fatal and invidious influence which the pros. pret of office and the gentification of ambition exercise, tu patrunda men that political prinsipira may be relinquished and political contrarities reconciled.

A union between parties in opposition beate a widely different character; no immediate practical necessity compela the maintenuwos of an mucamit. ting and organized opposition. When munara peringuently incapacited, by the almost universal atility of their political faith, from bolding office togelber, au sinister motive can be attributed, should they be found leaguing themselves for the accomplishment of some one object whlok in asa- hrnced within the cironference of both their crevde

Such a compact between rival parties can only be accomplished when the common object for which they unita la of overwhelming importan- co, and the common principle in which they agree is noe founded on indisputable truth.

The union between certain of the Protectioniste and the Itadicals, which, sa appears from the pros. pectus before us, has been affected in the "Backery for the Rafwem of Colonial Government," is a union of the latter kind.

The characteristic of Toryism is its belief in the ancient institutions of the country; its philosophy with, and justifies to itsef, a faith in the prin ciples of which those institutions are the maternal manifestation. Of all parts of the anoiset system of England, none has attracted more attention nove been more distinctly recognized by the Tory In the mind perly, then the municipal principle. of the Tory this was the sacient mode of distribut? ing good government throughout a community, or system of communities, sad of bringing it home to the doors of the people; and ho views it as di tinctly opposed to the system of contralization and of boreaucracy, which he conceives to be mo ders, and to be the result of Whig philosophy. He regarde France as the model of central govern mount; and having little admiration for the repulite of government in that country, he sums up eli bir detestation of the barmucratic system in one word -an-English By the municipal principle the Tory understands the delegation of the supreme authority in the State of auch portion of its powers to local and subordinate anthocities as may be considered requisite for the management of purely local affairs. It was in this spirit that the charters of old were loosed by the sovereign power-by this method th? towns acquired their corporate independence and it was in pursuance of the ancient principle that the most despotic of our Kings committed to the colonies, which went out in these days, the power to frame sit such laws as to them might soft for the good government of the communities they were about to establish.

It is not be wondered at, then, that those of the Tory panty who look beyond the more external forms of national institutions to the principles which those forma represent should recognise in the pre- orn syatum of governing a multitude of distant communities, by despotic and irresponsible central power in Downing.street, a direct violation of that theory of, delegated municipal suthority which they believe to be contained as a necessary element in the English constitutional system.

The town of Manchester has kiely voted ￡50,000. for the purpose of supplying itself with water. They consult no one hat themselves when they do so. The governor of a colony cannot lay out the lithe of so many pance withool the auction of a rere. inty of atate who lives at a distance of half the globe. It is not to be wondered at, then, that the Fory party should perceive the wacuasity of an antire change in the present mode of governing the cu- tonics, and that they should accept the Bciety for the Reform of Colanial-Goverments" as ready and constitutional agency for milling the empire, in a time of unexampled difficulty and danger, from a system which has resulted in da- content and disaffection throughout the whole co lonial world, to those ancient and wiss principles of government which, in their belief, have raised the country to the highest pinnacle of greatness and glory amongst the nations, nad by a return to which alone that greatness and glory can be pra Barrel. With these feelings there is not probably an individual of the Tory or Protectionist party who will not follow the example of die Sifford, Me Napier, Me Walpole, and Me Bating, in join ing the new society.

Four parties may be asid to be interested in the prescut conjuncture of colonial pulitics:-

1. The icial or Whig party. 2. The Tary or Imperial porty. 3. The Radical or economical par- 7. 4 The colonists themselves i of these the last three are in Iragge agsinn thu first.

First, these is the party of the Colonial-offer, the offcialists to whom power is sweet and patronage invaluable. This is at the present moment nearly conterminous with the Whig party. These man do

which sometimes cacapes them when they speak of the Imperial greatness and glory of their country. Radicals, the other hand, will, perhaps, look with something of a business like contempt at men who search the records of history, and study the principles of their ancestors, to disprove what rasy be disproved by an argument ready to their hands -an argument which cannot be answered, and is, therefore, sufficient. They do got think it worth their while to go into the constitutional question i they no satisfied with the economical ope,

A Tory will differ from the Radical who says, (bel under no circumstsaces ought the peopline this country to pay for the maintenance of foreign empire; but he will cordially agros with bir checking an expenditure which in resulting, not in the melotenance of empire, but in lis diesolution, A Radical will differ from a Tory as to the grounds upon which the wisdom of delegating a portion of the supreme authority to dimans and subordiante communities may be argued, because the Radical believes that all powers amabales from the people, and that the inhabitants of the colonies have an in- herest and in lafensible right to govern themselves; but he will not trouble himasif about the principles upon which the change is to be made, so that it is ronde, and he will sordially co-operate with a Tory in pulling down the most complete and uncontestod despotisms in the Western bemier bars--the doups-

Liam of the Colonial-offico.

But we have spoken of a fourth party who are Interested in this struggle against officialiam--the colonists. The Bocisty for the Reform of Colonist Government invites each of the colonies to appoi an agent to communicate with it, and to nid it in the endeavour to obtain for each the political priv. The name of Mr ileges to which it is entitled. Adderley in the list of the council is sufficient guarantee that the interests of colonists will be a ply represented; and we shall be greatly deceived if there exists a single dependency of Bogland which will not answer promptly sud loudly to the all.

The colonists of all parties the most deeply in. terested in the imus of the straggle-without, pet- haps, fully appreciating the reasoning of the Tory, without sympathizing with the somewhat selal principle of the Radical, supply an argument to both, and to the whole country, to which there can bo no reply, and to which all should take heed.

The colonists my, "We will not permit your present system to continue any longer. If you are determined to maintala it, It must be by the sword," They have not suid so in so many words, but there aro signiflent musterings ominously intelligible to the slateeman, from which but o48 meading can he gathered.

THE PIRACY AND SLAVE TRADE OF THE INDIAN ARCHIPELAGO.

(Pram the Journal of the Indian Archipelago)

(Continged from No, 83, page 91.) 1826-1n the 5th number of the Singaporn Chronicle, there is a very extollun skoloh of Malay piracy, which is probably from the pen of hir Crawford, at that tima Reside.. at Singapor vad who is known to bare nriched the pages of the Chronicle in the Brot few years of its existence, will many valuable notices of subjects connected with the Indian Archipelago. Akhough rather out of the proper chronological order, we shall bera in troduce a few extracts from this sketch, na il cuo voys a vary just view of the state of piracy existing at this parod, and of the means becamery for its suppression. The following is a description of the Malay pirates --

It is not sorprising than, that sho Melayu should have been Dolorious for their deprodations from our first ag. quaintance with them. It is indeed, on the con. tiary, rather remarkable, considucing the extenor, dinary templations which exist, that the matter should be no words, a result for which we are in debiad to the feoble and unenterprizing obaracter of this people. A race of Europeso buccaniers un- der the anme elccunstances, would soon render these an impassable for the greater part of the

A pirical prabe manned by 28 Chinese, was seized by a Dulch crui?ar in the month of June, and car- ried into Rhio. The boat bad boso fitted out at a small village on the north-east side of the leland of Bintang, and cruised at first in the Straits between Singapore and Malacon, but not meeting with much sucosse, they mede a descent upon a small island to the southward of the Carimons, where they kill ed the male inhabitanie, three io number, and car- ried away the woman and children god all the par- able property. They were soon afterwarde taken. On leading at Rhio, two of the Chinese made their escape, and two Malay pilots, of whom there were aliogather three attached to the boat, were bayo- melted in trying to get away. Some of the Chinese inhabitants of Hbio showed a disposition to effect the liberation of their countrymen by foros, but the authorities took measures to repress any attempt of the kind. Aumber of piratisal vessels were seen off the coast of Jars, some of them being of very large size. The schooner irit, belonging to the Dutch royal Bary, had an engagement with ren of these prabus, & Sumbawa uading prahu was attacked off Cape Bandana by a picate who cat- rid eight hilas, and one gun of large calibre.

And wo think if the Editor of the Hongkong Register had likewise continued his silence aftor Mr Holdforth's departure that he would have shown a more commundable and gentlemanly spirit. The attack on Mr Holdforth at the present moment and on the present subject hurts nobody but the author who undor any circumstance ought to be the very last man to have made such an attack as we shall presently show.

NOTICE

THE FRIEND OF CHINA AND HONGKONG GAZETTE,

tinctly that the Editor of this paper was over under obligations to Mr W. II. Mitchell. Me Mitchell, to must his own views, published anon- ymously in our columor; for the truth of

much that he wrote we took his word, and it was in the firm belief that he did not in any degree streich the truth that wo,gave ad- mission to his papers. So far from being un- der obligations to Mr Mitchell, we suffered great pecuniary low by having the courage to publish some of his communications, This would never have been complained of, had be not been villy enough to sort that we were under obligations to him.

Wo congratulate the Editors of the Register upon their friend of ten youre standing ; wo would remind them of a bomaly old proverb- but it will occur to the recollection of the astuta Gentlemen without our aid. We would also assure them that we hear enough of them and their friend of ten years without being at the expense of hiring a spy to watch their move ments, if they know the perfect indiferenco with which wo listen to the current scandal of Bang jay certainly na enem at the je society they would not prefer such a ridiculous charge. The Editors ad bit the lengthonod visit from their ten years old Iriend on the forenoon | of the 22nd December. Surely it must have been something very urgent which would call that official from his office in business hours. Gentlemen don't pay more idle visits to Gen- tlemen at that time of the day; viewing the men, the place of museling, the circumstances under which they meet, and subsequent events, the mind is forced to the conclusion that on the 22nd of December 1810 a treaty of ulliance was concluded between the flongkong Gov- emment and the independent pure and imma. culate Hongkong Register.

Tin reason then why the Editor of the Register should have been the last man to bavo written on the subject as be baa done, is our rendors will perceive, because he is too mach asized up in the matter personally, and that the col lusion or blunder has turned out too fortunate for him to permit him to say any thing for or against either party to the collusion or blunder, with any thing like propriety.

Doing the heavy fall of rain on Bunday night five oxen, or cows, were stolen from West point village, and it is supposed were carried off by boat to the Cowloon side. The lowing of the cattle and the barking of the dogs disturbed the vil Jager, but not in time to prevent the robbery.

We have much pleasura in publishing, princi. pally for the information of the Editor of the Hongkong Register, a letter from Mr W. II. Mitchell, as in his editorial 10-day the Editor of the Register seemed to be ignorant as to whether or not his Bulb was a Deacon; by ro ference to the letter the Editor will find his nol & Descon in any senso of the word, but only a Bachelor of Arts.

The Editor of the Register complains that while we discuss the causes which led to Mr W. It.

CALIFORNIA PROSPECTS OF THE GOLD WASHINGS,

The geological analogy of the new gold-lend of Americe, with the majority of similar regions in hath the old and new world, forme the surest grou for forming a colimata of ita futute prospects. geographical distribution of gold on the globe, il- Ermen conjoise this with a general account of the Tustrated by a map and table of the localition where this precious metal has been found in ustable quan- tity. Had the gold which almost constantly a

smpanies iron pyrkes been taken lato account, this melt would have appeared one of the most common in nature, Bome localkies are omitted becwore their precise position is not known, as tie Arabian and Nubian counts of the Red Sea, whore the ancient Egyptians formerly had gold washing, and the promontory of Malacca, famed na the sures Chersons. The map and table enumero eighty- one districts where geld has been obtained, includ. ing in our own islands the gold washings and veine at the Londhills in Lanarkshire, and those of Care marvon and Merionethshire, known ayon sa tha Romune, bas omiting those of Wicklow in Trulood, The manner ic which these localities are operad over the map le all the older civilized parts of the sarth shows how shandang this melaf must be, and bow probable it in thint isshay be found not only in the less known parts of Africa, Arla, or Australia, but even in Europe. As proof of the accidental manner in which gold washings are discovered, wo may mention those of the UruE (n these mount. nine, where icon and copper mines had long flow- rished, the only gold known was the sconti reine at Beremw, wrought with the most patient indeury from 1749 to 1824 by German micers, with a yearly produce of lem than 19,000. To 1824 rich gold sands were found all round these mines, pra- ducing annually forty times no much, or from 760,000 to 900,000. The same thing has stone happened in the Akai, and, according to reports, in the spring of this year (1849) in Norway, not far from Kongsberg and Falun.

I is often said that gold is most abundant in the warm rogions near the Equator, but this table of localities gives quite the opposite result.

An Intelligent Witnest.-On the trisl of a pri- sover con chuige of stealing bay, at the Plymouth Borough Sessions, on Monday, before Mr Recorder Rowe, a boy onmed Drake 18 years of age, whilat under examination by Mr Jones, the counsel for the prosecution, created some amusement and sen- sation by the following scene: Mr Jones: Do you known the sixble spoken oft Boy: My father has stable. When did he leave it? A. I can't tell, sk.-Q. Had he it in Novumber? A dog' know, ric; he left in the fair week - Q. Oh, the fair week. (Laughter) When was the fair week? A. I don't know.-Q. What month was the last ? A don't know air.-Q. What month is this? Don't know (Great laughter.) -Q. Do you know what year it is? A No.-Q. Do you know what your last was? A. No. (Roura of laughter )~Q Do you know when Chistmas was? A. No. (Laughter)- The Recorder: Don't you know what month Christmas was in; A No.-Q Do you know what day of the month Chrismas in 1 A Yes, on Monday, (Great Inughter ) You are on intelligent lad.

Another kind of Wiscan--In a case that occurred at the Quester Sessions on Tuesday ap which Alon- ander M.Pherson was charged with stealing timber at Wollongong, a man named Ross, who was a wituess for the prosecution, was cross examined by Mr Holroyd as to the terms he was on with the priuar. Sawney fenced the question of in the usual careful inanner of his countrymen. In the cuvine of the examination the following occured: - Mr Holroyd-Ware you ou good terms with the prisoner 1

Rose-I canna say I was?n bad,

Me Holpoyd-But were you on good!

Rom-I dead jurt san 1 was one on bad.

Mr Holroyd--Well, Sir, had you had words

with him

Rom-Gude truth, I couldon apeak the the nion without bacin words.

Mr Hokoyd-That won't do. Did you ever

with him f

Rom-1 dians just ken what a quneral is.

Mr Holroyd-Were you good friends?

Rom-Yo moun jait ken that I'm par mon's enemy.

‧

Mr Holroyd- Did you ever threaten to stick him with a knife when you were drunk ↑

Rom-Hoot awa, mon! boo can I tell what I

did when I was drunk?

And with this triumphout interrogatory, the ex- amination of the witnem was given up si a bad job.-Boll's Life in Sydney.

An Awkward Mistake.-- A farmer who had hough; a calf from a butcher, desired him to drive an t? his farm and place it in she ateble, which hercordingly did. Now, it happened that very day, that a man with a grindingt tygr que | dancing bear passing by that way, begun their an- tics in front of the form. After amoning the farmer's family for some time, the organ-mau entered she firm hugar, and naked the farmer if he could give home a night's lodging. The farmer replied be could give the man lodging, but that he was at a loss where to put the bear. After musing a little, ke determined to bring the call inside the house for tist night, and place the bear in the stable, which wes dune. Now the butcher, expreting the calf would remain in the stable oil night, resolved to Pleal it ere morning; and the former and his guest were in the night awakened by a fearful yelling from the outbuildings. Both got up, nad taking a lantern, entered the stable, when the former found. to bis surprise, the butcher of whom he had bought sire calf, to the grasp of the bear, which we hug ging him wemandously, for he could not bite, being muzzled. The former instantly understood the state of the case, and briefly mentioned the cir cunstance to the owner of Brain, who, to punish the butcher for his Intended theft called ant to ha Bene, "* Ilug him, Temmy," which the bear did in real estdem, the Lutcher roaring most hideocaly the while. After they thought he had suffered enough, they set him free, and the luutcher alunk, off, glad to escape with his life ; while the faraver and his guest returned to their beds.

A Bagulat missionary, with whom 1 conversed on the capsolty of the negro race, told me that ke was once present when one of their ministers deli vered a prayer, composed by himself, for the oc dination of a ministar of his sect which, said he, was admirable in its conception, although the sen lenes were so ungrammatical that they would pass, with a stranger, for more gibberish. The prayer res thus:-

"Make be good, like he say;

Maku he say, like good i

Make he say, make he good, like he God." which may be thus Interpreted :-Make him gond at bis doctrlos, make his doctrine as puro si bis life, and may both be in the likeness of his God. -Sir Charles Lyell's Visit to the United States.

THE READ-MONEY ACT,

(From the Daily News, 25th February.) The minimeria) bill to repeal the Head-Moory Act stands for commital to-night in the House of Commoss. No opposition having been offered to ible measure on the second reading, there is little elfhood of any successfal altempt to obstruct its progress in commfiteu.

It could be wished that exain- ples of this Sparian beuvky wars more frequent on the page of the Slanino at large."

Indeed it is not easy to autoise any quarter whence op- position to the repeal of the Head-Money Act could come, axcept from a few agents. Sir Thomas Baring sold the Bouse of Commons on the night of the seened reading that the 11) late admiral on the bluese and Indian stadion, had declared the Head-Money Act served as a pretant for nadertaking enterprises and claiming head-money in vir tos of them, of a nature that it framers could not possibly have had in contemplation. Months ago the act was do nutmoed in the China Mall se obveracting the suppressio el piracy, by encouraging the indiscriminate slaughter of the crews of vessels suscked upon suspicios, and this rendering Inquiry Impossible. The same view of it has repeatedly been taken by the ablest civil officials in the Rasi, both in their public and private correspundemos.

Nor has the attempt been unsuccessful. Sir Thomas Cochrane, Captain Keppel, Captain Mundy, and all the Naval officers who have visited Borneo, bear testimony to the benerul. ence and humanity of Sir James Brooke's char- acter. On his recent visit to England he was welcomed by good inen of all classes of society -he was honoured by his Sovereign-and cheared by public approbation, he returned to the field of bis labours in the East.

His ideas of navibe gation are taken from observation in cabe and omnibusses; his sordid soul can only raise staplf to the elevation of the "Ilead-money Act."

His sordid mind makes a dead act at the "1load-Money:* and why? Because he never looks to other considerations than more per sonal interest. No man who is acquainted with the officers who commanded these ex- peditions can believe that they were influenced by "Head-Money." The service was not a voluntary one; on the contrary-with the ex- ception of the Medea's brush at Tien-pakh, and then her boats were first attacked-the several expeditions were fitted out in this harbour, and the officers in charge sent on a special servion, on the due performance of which they staked their reputations. The last of these expeditions was that of H. M. 8.

When to this sum are added those taxes which we pay in cam- man with all other manufactures and expitalista, it will be easily understood that the question of taxes on knowledge has a peculiar value in our agee. In the event of a comission, or reduction of Jaty, it is rash to conjecture the propertion of the vanings that would fill to sur share. Dibers, Indeed, have not scrupled to predict that our alleg. ed "monopoly" would be destroyed ; but, as the prediction has been made oece already, and boen sigually disappointed by the result, we entertain vary fiula alarm for the future.

A Conscience Monty. Maniac.-A great deal of okah must pass through the hands of the Chancel For of the Exchequer; yet nobody, one would think would contribute more to the amount then he could belp. Not. Among the soknowledgments of those unaecountable remittances of conscience- money to Government which are almost daily pab- lished in the Timce, it was notified the other day, that "the Chancellor of the Exchequer has recaler- ed from T. C. D. the Brat halves of Bank notes for ￡60 remitted as sum considered to be owing to Government." Considered to be owing to Go venoment? Then 'T'. C. D-initiuls that we feel tempted to suppose to stand for "Tender Con- sciencial Donkey"-is not certain that be owes Government the ￡60.

The Colduras of the Palpit Rabuked by the Ear- menmass of the Staga-Geniaat Preaching in Now York-The New York Herald, criticising the Shakaperian rendlage of Mrs Butler (Fanny Kom- bis) and noticing the interest they were exciting amongst the multitudes of fashionable peuple flocking to hear them, gives us a glimpos of the style of fashionable preaching in that metropolis: -Our temples of religion are numerous and magnificent; but it is to be feared that the elegant audiences that congregate within them are but slightly moved by the spirit of the true faith. Our preachers are well paid, but they are shockingly dull. The consciences of men and women are not to be touched by feather. Mora moral baran gues, however grammatical sad smooth, will noti arouse, alarm, reform the frail and erring. The pulpit, in our larger cities, han lust mech of its power. It ought to be the great aguacy of the truth, in the midst of a wicked and perverso go- neration. But it has become shookingly 'goateel.' It Oattore where it should condemo ; and the wall dressed congregation retires in excellent spirits, with consciences untouched, and sins and fullies. unrebuked. Let our genteet preachers take a Jesson from the success of Mr Butler's readings Let them present the sublime truths of Chilatinoxy In all their futnem and force; not in the soporiso accepta and rounded periode of the (sahionable style, but with the stern eloquence of a Paul, or B?.

And now, if anything astonishes me, it is that such experiments are not quite comman. el shall, of course, ba naked what predation are necomary to preserve oneself from the disorganising action of the woodescent rat ter T-maswer, none-only to have no fear, to make the experiment with confidence, to pass the hand rapidly, but not too rapidly, in the metal in full fusion; otherwinn, if the experiment ware perform ed with fear or with too great rapidity, the repul sive force with axists ia incandescent bodies might be overcome, and thus the contact with the skin be elected which would undoubtedly remain la a into easy to understand. To for a conception of the danger there would be is passing the hand too rapidly into the metal in fusion, it will auflo to reflect that the resistance is proportionate to the aquare of the velocity, and in so compact a fluid as liquid iron the resistenes increases certainly to a higher ratio. The experiment succeeds especially when the skin is humid; and the involuntary dread bich one feels st facing these masses of fire, almost always puts the body into that state of troiature so necessary to suceca; but by taking some precautions, and becomes veritably invulner- able. The following is what has sooceeded best with me: I rub my honde with soap sa na to give them a polished surface; then, at the moment of making the experiment, 1 dip my hand into a cold solution of sal ammoniac, saturated with sulphurous acid or simply into water containing some sal summonine, and, in default of that, into fresh water.'

The fol dates must not excond 85 years of age ↑ they must free from any bodily or mental defect likely to impair their werIulness as noctives" they should have had the small pot, or have been vaccinated; be antiafactory, and it is desirable that they should their characters for industry and morality should read and write; they should have been accustomed to walking and cooking, or have had some ex. perience in domestic service as housemaids or nurses." The candidates will at first be received in a probationary house, in this couulty, suporin- tended by a sub committen, with a mation socne- toned to colonial life, and a surgeon; there they will acquire some training, and will prepare their outfit, which must be provided at their own ex- pense; the machinery of the Colozial Land and

FLUNKYISM.

Flankyim is inseparable from Colonial society; the smaller the community, the more remarkable is the babit. It is not peculiar to the atmosphere of official life, but there is flourishes. The waters of the Ganges or the Surinam are not more congenial to the Lotus than the mud and impunity of colonial politics to Flankyis?n.

There is this excuse for official Flankyiem; in in too often essential to the prosperity of those who indulge in it. A deference to their superiors in of fice either promotes or retains them, without that deference they would either stand still in the service or be dismissed when they were on longer required. Besides Flunkyism has created an vajcial maak which dear to the official.

In other words their suit!was sold to them at an increase of only 1,600 per cent Now, though such messores might perhaps b fely ventured on in Bengal, the rough sons of the mountaia who are paid to keep the pesos are rather unlikely personages to submit to such taxes per salium.

TREBATENED AMONDBART ON THE Appama.-For tho dne time for these many years there will bea division upon the motion for an address. The opposite principle, long since recognised throughout the Continent, and now publicly Towel as the Government policy of the Uphed Brass of Ametics, will be pat forward in a short metion for chewdment. The words proposed to be introduced will propound it as desirable to secure the home market as far as possible for na- tive producers, and will simply sapress a hope shes the subject will be inquired isso, in sabarition to the strongly expressed opinions and wishes of the producto, tive classes of the population, and of all olanobo interested. Upon this the fasue will be joined. The Ministry will of coume carry their address by a majority. | Will it be a large majority? Will there be defectuane from Intentional absence -from fear of offending doubusal copstituencies from abered opinions and changed convictions on the subject of Fros Trade? That will be made manifest by the division in the Commose House. And support there is a similar amand. ment moved and carried to a division in the House of Lords at then? Why, the present Government may peril their very szistondo as a Government in the | first week of the session. This is their affair, not our. The Government whip will be applied, and the address, moved by Mr Villings, will beve its majority Lady Hayas, barqu in the Comment. Will the rouk allay or reprms the fouling on the subject of Free Trade shown from an end of the country to the other Thay very comes Horse, w trary will be the effect. Exsuperation, sugar, and discontent will be increased | Asoygus, big tan-fold; and does the Government think that a Chartist demi-socialias demonstra tion at such towns as Stafford and Loude will be couterpoise to the universal oulery againn short wages and no work which is fos real foundation of the | agitation now winamed fi--Morning Post.

If be Ameriona, the Spaniard, the Russian, and the Pole shall be permitted to pour what the free trade papero call their "brood-1""fa"" into the Irish markets, thus distancing the native grower and agriculturist, the Irish?oun in turn will seek for permission to distil his own whisky, to grow his ow's tobacco, to extract bis own sugar from beet, to make his own soap and paper, frea from the persecutions of the English excissman- to manufacture bis own genera und naquc bah-for the former of which be has the whest and juniper berrim roady at hand; for the joolpar tres, si every arborist knows, growe upon any dry barren com mon, or any chalky or sandy land. The Irishman will grow his rubia tinctorum, too-we would say, in plain English, ble madder, did we not possibly thereby give occasion to our pleasant friend Punch to make very capital joke at the expense of the Protectionists. This is an ugitation that verg much concerns that brightest si kuanciero-Dir Charles Wood, ber Majesty's Chencellor of the Exchequer in a tender point, for large dutice and excise are derived from tobacco, from sugar, from | May, mak, from Hollands, from alcohol, from whisky, from paper, &a.

It would be a manifest Injustice to the farmer to open our markets to the stranger, unfuts the Irishmen could have the option of growing what the stranger grows for his own was. The truth in--pushed to i legitimate deduction-this now one sided free- trade_system_mvet upset all our lawn of Custon and Excise-all our fiscal regulations--must, in a word, disturb and altogether sher the whole char acter and condition of our social system, as well as the form and nature of nar Government.

DEPRECIATION OF AGRICULTURAL PRODUCE

(From the Times.)

What are the simple and undeniable facla on which the present agitation Te grounded, the whale and sale pretence for the present hysterical pa roxyum of agricultural despair. The first is that whret, after maintaining a very good average price from the first monouncement of Tree trade to the middle of last August, then began to fall below it, and has since fallen gradually to such a price that the average of the last five months has been rather more than 414, per quarter. The depreciation of wheat is the greatest agricoltural grievance. Agricahural produce of all kinde has suffered much less depreciation than any other commodity whatever, excepting only money in the funds, and money lent for short periods on fronte ancurity, and consequently at law interest, Win nearly

But to return to the "Head Money."

No prudent man will attack a vessel upon the mere suspicion of her bring engaged in pistical pur. suits. The responsib fity is heavy-the "head money" but poor compensation for the risk of being deprived of his commission, The Naval oficers engaged in the front operations against pirates bore claimed the lid money "awarded by ap act of parliament.

and wide of the mark-in fact, bu evidently un derstands nothing about his subject-iberefore 1 must try to enlighten him oo it ; and without aw woring his letter "bit by bit," ( will detail the roal facts of the case, cornmencing at the "fountain- head." In the first place, the "TAL NAVT,"

■ "body corporate," ranks before the Queau's whole Army, (just as Cavalry makes precedence of Infan 177.) and has done so ever since the distinguishing prefix of "Royal" wat added to "Navy." The Queen's Army, not being "Hoyal," with the ex- ception of a few Regiments, (for instance, the pre- sent denizens of Kirkce) consequently, though n Post Coptain (of three years' standing) tanks with a full Colonela Josier Post-Captain with o Lieu.

Orlant Colonel, - a Commander with a Major.-and Lieutnant in the Navy ! with an "Army" Cap fait,-ead offrors of these equal rands in the Royal Navy and Queen's Army take precedence strictly according to the dates of their equal Com mismuna. Lopins that if it should happen that "Bonior" Fost Captain, sod a "full" Colonel bore Commissions of the same date, the Royal Naval Officer would take precedence, on account of the "Royalty," and, ditto diuo with the other ranke. Now arcundas, otheers of John, Compa ny's Army and Navy only retain their titles in England by couriery; and, being never on service there, cannot of course "clash" with ￡1. Al's ser vices. But, on this side of the Cape, Lion'bla John's retainers bear Queen's Commissions, and aro iberafute just as much Her Majesty's faithful servants as thepoembers of her distinct services consequently they joke rank in the astounder, with each other, and with them, though I do not know how an Officer of the Indian Army, and another of the Indian Noty, of equal ral?k,'and same date, would settle precalence, there being po Royal" distinguishing mark. An Officer of the Company's service (Noval or Militery) would bare to give precedence to a Queen's Oncer (Naval or Miliary) of the same rank, and same data, of cour - belonging to the junior service. I will now give, as an instance of the rule, a list of of Sicers of differem ranks in all the services, as they would take precedence if on duty together on this side of the Cape, whetherRoyal Naval," "Queen's Regimente," "Jodian Naval, or "Lee- ders of Sipahies:"-

The Governor Generel bad expressed himaels' favourable to the project, and the mettar had been referred to the Home Clovernment, who is already begotiating, we bellers, with the P. & O. Company to extent the line from Calcutta to Singapore.

From a good source at Home we learn that although nothing deficits had been settled relative to the Australian line, the subject was under final adjustment. Much doubt appears to exist as to the probability of the Australian lias of Steamers pay ing the contractors; and to secure the object, we learn that negotiations were in program between the P.&O. Company, which is willing to take the contract provide the East India Company rasiga the Bombay and Sues route entirely to the P.&O. Company. The lattor undertake to maintain the Blaam Communication between Bombay and 9ors at the like or avon at a somewhat lower sam than nowe paid by the English Governant sad the East India Company, in which case the Austri- llan hoe will taken up without delay.

We may sien state that arrangements are cos templated by the P. & O, Company which embrace the line from Hongkong to Blanik.

Should all these arrangement be satisfactorily completed Singapore will become the centre of Steam commonication, and the erection of spacious docks here for the Steamer will be ladispensable.

It spread gradually throughout Great Britain and Ireland, and destroyed about 80,000 persons. Calais od Paris were affected nearly simultaneously in March, 1032; not, therefore, as might have been expected, by progression of the disease from Germany along the Rhine, but obviously by a reverted sirenin from England. From those centres the epidemia spread through France, sometimes from town to town, 'sometimes apparently by loopa so dialant nad inulat- ed points. The mortality in this country was much greater than in Britain, Paris alone losing upward of 18,000 pare006. Three months later (Juna, 1888,) the pestilence appeared at Quebec.

COLONIZATION ASSURANCE COMPANY.

(From the Times.) Another amongst the many instances of new op. plications of the assurance principle in proposed to be carried out, on an extensive scale, by an as- clation called the Colonization Assurabos Compa- oy. The Company, whose bill of incorporation is now before Parliament, will purchase landa In the various colonies and let them on loans in small or large lots to emigranta, upon a payment of a yearly rant, coupled with an annual premium, which will antide them to bequeath the land as fresholds to thele beirs. In this way by a comparatively small yearly outlay, the esitler may enter upon bis task of cultivation with the same lecking that ble efforts ate exercised for the permanent benefit of himself and his family, as if he had acquired by the lips mediate expenditure of captal the natual title to pho soil, while it will likewise be in his power, at foy period of suberguent prosperity, to become the owner at once, by purchaslug his policy at a direct pelos, calculated according to the o val system of redemption tables. It is also proposed to adopt a plan of Igrminable premiums, by which, at the end of lan or need, or any other period of years, the property may pass over to the aurer or to bis representatives in osse he should have died before the lapse of the speelfed term. The tunes of the entire scheme will depend upon the spirit in which it may be worked out, but it possesses inherent features that might be made to yield great advan Inge.

A correspondent at Lahore remarke that "the arrival of the mail has dispelled all hopes of the succession of General Gilbert to the coinmand of the Bombay Troops; and sklough it must be the subject of sincere regret to the Army that an O Goer so universally beloved abould remain an Insaf fielently rewarded, it occasions the most unfeigned and hanet felt gallefaction to the division which bo- wefits by his presence, at finding he will remain a Cloneral al in Bengel."

It turns out that the alleged "tro. oilies' were not only not committed at all, but that the messons in question were drawn up and penned by a true-born Cingalese, who furged Captain Watson's name to the documents, and who turned his cleverness to account by plundering and mine ing his own brachten under pretext of restoring

order.

The second chief then came forward and declar ed "that the chief had not done their duty on this occasion, but that be, in his duurich, bad bosa speaking to the people."

...But on the part of the Governor, air, I have to thank you for what you have stated, and I Coul oured that you will exert your influence to keep the people right and to prevent their minds troo being abused. This is what the Glorerament ex- preted from the chiefs. Their object was to select sa chiefa man whom the people looked up to fur their intelligence, and who could guide and direct them by their personal influenom."

Now, the name of this Cingalese pattern man, whom on the b July 1848 it thus delighted Sir Emerson Teseul, in the name of his Excellency Lord Torrington, to honour, and to whom he ar director, was, incredible as it may appear, Tickery pected the people to look up to as their guida and Banda, the reprobate, the felon, who, we learn from Captain Watson's evidence (124), was ignominious- ly ousted from the public service in 1844, for far- gery, by that officer himself, and whom he sub- requently states (160, 170) to have closed a lung On the 14th of February, Captain Watson, avand notorious career of crime by transportation ia cording to the usual course, was called in and ex- 1848,--ibe very year in which he was thun public- amino."

Otha and in those of the Sukan, that the policy of England is no longer favourable to them and their csus; and the immediato inference is, that they must look too Rumia slons for countenanos and support. The insurrection of the Tonian Lales had in its origin something of the spirit of Greek na tionality, and the severity with it was repressed has boss felt by all the Halarisis of all the "Greek provine. Shortly afterwards Admiral Parker's opare tions were hailed with delight by the Porte, whilst they were looked upon with aversion by avery Christian power. A Turkish squadron s?- mally cleared out to support the British fleat and to share the spoil, as if no touch of ignominy was to be spared our gallant sailors. Throughout the Eat the impression produced on the Greek popula tons by these events in, that we have adopted a Has of hosillity to their sovereign and their race, and that we have identified ourselves entirely und exclusively with their Musulman oppressor. Buch es Impression is in the highest degree favourable to all the designs which the Russian Cabinet may entertain on these countries and their Christian fubabitants ; and wa deliberately express our con- viction that the effect of these hostile and coercive monetites has been to renounce and destroy the whole policy followed by this country in the Greek question for upwards of twenty years--begun by Mr Ceaning, consummated by the cannon of Na varino and 15e. Treaty of Loudan, continued by Lord Palmerston in the choice of King Olho, the appointment of the Regency, and the negotiation of the foreign loan, after all the gredations of disap- pointmer, ill temper, coolness, and armed hostility we are arrived at the total extinction of that British Influence in Greece which it had been our object le found, to consolidate, and to perpetusto, as the best guarantee of the independence of that country, and the best rampart against the natural progress of Russian sympathies amongst a congenial peo ple. Bach is the strict and undeniable political view of this case, and without offering soy opi sion on the wisdom or folly of our conduct, we record it as a fact that in the year 1950 Gront Bri tajn drove the Greek nation to seek for protection against herself at the hende of Russia and France, and thai, sa obe thereby renounced and undid what she had been striving to effect in Gresca der twen- ty-dre years, she left so open und undisputed field to that ascendancy of Russia or France in Greece which abe had so long endeavoured to combat or to share.

"NO FEAR OF WAR."

(From the Times.)

The war panic, which so ominously preceded the European revolutions, hou been falsifiert as far as we are concerned, and,overy fresh escape we hayo is hailed as a proof that we are never to hure

‧ war. We have neveribelesa bad some very nar- row escapos, and no small part of the danger bas arises from the very party which has booked us for saving of 10,000,0007, a year. It did all it could te involve us in a war with Naples, which would have entailed a collision with Ruesin; and to this Jpy thinks that a main testa on our public faith spcones we barked out of thers faish- war von weloper@eat on us to undertake the cause of Hun *ary against Austria, and therefore also against Ross. Again, nothing was over more popular in this country ban our armed demonstration in behalf of Turkey against Russia. Lastly, if the Hoian Government were in the hands of a Paul, i would certainly bare demanded ontisfaction for Mr Cobden's offensive and menacing expressiona towards it, especially on the occasion of the loan, and not receiving it would have doclared war Bosides these instances in which our self-called economiste wera thamaniyes iko instigatora of war there have been, nay there ara still, and will con- tinue to be, causes and provocations of war, for which their philosophy discovare nuo remedy or prevention. The abominable, but really the moet common of all wars, are thoon which you are those which you are involved in you cannot say how or why. A stupid liula querrel in hatched by some busybodies about some person, ar thing, or transac tion, which the nation has never heard of, till it is told some fine morning that its honaus is engaged and it must go to war. Who in this country knows or care one straw about the king of Mas quito, or the Tale of Tigre, or Mr Finlay, or Dea Pacifico, or the jalande of Cervi and Bapienza ↑ If the three gentlemen hare mentioned had been bung this day last your, and the three islands bad disappeared in the sea, it would not have excited the smallest possible uneasiness to a pool in this country, and in the press of other matters might onoily have escaped "notics in the public journals. Bot if we day find ourselves actually at was be fore we have so much as beard of the causes, how in the world are we to prevent it? Here we are block. nding the Pirms with an immense fleet, conting thomando a day, with all sorts of casualties in prospect amongst them three separate quarcelo with France, Russia, and Austria, all of them, for DDE FERSON OF Another, warm friends of Greece Have Cobden and his frienda been able to avert the actual scandal and the prospective dangers of this intensely stupid affair? Neither have we, indeed; but then we don't pretend to cut down the national sxpenditure by 10,000,000), a year.

When she sailed from Ban Francisco, on the 23rd of March, Chins made houses were nearly un- saleable; it was a question whether the smaller class would pay landing charges and other ex- poares. The quotations for luniber were low with a felling market. Silks, Crapos, and Chi- De fancy goods, were in request for the Mexi- can market. Buger and some other articles of eastern produce are sold occasionally at long prices. The expense of storage readers the market very uncertain, dealers merely feeding consumption. This explains the wide ence in quotations in the course of a few weeks. For China made houses and lumber we sco no ressonable prospect of an improvement for aking time. The quantity to arrive from America will overstock the market; and the superiority of American work?nanship-not to speak of the better material will give the shippers from the States a cominand of muket, though it is to be feared that sales will be made for less than freight.

Captain Larkins died at San Francisco early in March. This Geatleman was long - connected with China. For many yehru he commanded one of "the Company's ships: latterly he has been engaged in commeros. Cap'ain Larkins has many friends in this quar- ter, to whom his death among strangers in such place as San Francisco, cannot fail to be

The non-arrival of the nobiject of regret. Amoy Pocket, hence 20th September, removes the last hope of her safety. Mr N.

She was spoken off the Bashees; the master then intended refitting asi the island of Guam. It is but too probable that in her crippled state she had to contend with a second gale in which she parished. We hear the cargo was chiefly insured in London.

EDUCATION OF THE PEOPLE.

(From the Times.)

The first fact that we have to deal with, is the actual stats of secular education in this country. On this point we will speak as if there were no such things as blue-books, and as if controversy had never laid ita rude hands on the question." W. speak not as politicians, philophers, or religionists, much lows as partizuar, when we record our own sorrowful experience that the labouring clease of this country are more ignorant than it would be de- cent or even possible to describe. What they know of religion it is not easy to my, for they are Fule in the habit of exprowing their thoughts, and are loset of all able to do so under scrutiny. What may be called their professional knowledge is highly re- spectable. The British labourer is the best living toel in the world. But bore all his knowledge and intelligence and. Beyond his Geld or his workshop ho povstally knows nothing. There is no amount of ignorance or of error of which he is not capable. To linu literature, science, and art-the progresolve history and the accumulated discoveries of acvaral thousand years are to him as if they bed cover bead. He knows nothing of the face of this globa→→ nothing of the history or constituion of his country --nothing of its poets, in philosophers, and its disines. The enthusiastic young clergyman who entara on the care of an agricultural parish franb from the subes and honours of the university, finde ao great a gulf between himself and the minda of his flock nail they were the newly converted as tives of New Zealand. Shakspeare, Milton, Pipe, Gray, and even the sweet and simple Golde with,- Addison, and Johnson-in fact, all our other au tional names, are na utterly unknown to the coast of our people as they are to the population of Clion. The bible and the prayer-book, the byinn-book, the spelling-book, and arithmetic, with some theologi. cal and devotional tracts, constitute the whole of the village Interature, and it is far from our purpose to dispute their value when they are studied with sin- cerity and ural. Bui, as we have said, of all other literature, all other history, all other posity, all other science, the rustic knows nothing.

old enough to remember George IV.. ho may pos sibly be shrewd enough to conclude that there was also a George 1., but beyond that he knows no- thing ; and, in general, if he were informed by a goleman that George I. was established in this kingdom by Casar, or Alexander, or Abraham, be would swallow it without the smallest bositation, just as he would any other absurdi?· in history ur science. In truth, so for as regarde all these things, ho is an utter barbarian.

PLOKINGS FROM PUNCH.

The Dignity of Coal.-The New York Enquirer says of the "Negro Emperor," that "bla colour is the most thorough coal-black." Can this person- age be identical with our ancient friend, King Coal? | If so, we hope flis Majesty will keep up his fa- moga concerts with renewed spirit, and that the marry old soul, with his fiddere and trumpetera, will be merrier than ever, now that he has been promoted to be Emperor. Coul will make so good Emperor, no doubt, as anybody, in the face of

THE FRIEND OF GIRNA AND HONGKONG GAZETTE,

Jokes and Joking.---A joke may change the mon resolute, Henry VIII of England, baring some molires of disaontent with Francia. of France, proposed to send to him, un embasador, an English bishop, whom he wished to charge with a message of guil, pride, and musce. This prelats, perceiving all the peril of his mission, sought to excuse himself. "Fear nothing," said Heory to him, since if the king of France should take your life, I will cut off the bonds of as many Frenchman as I can lay my hande on." "Trus," replied the bishop, "but among all those heads there would not be one that would fit my bust ai well as the one which is there now 1" Thin jest made Henty laugh, and ended in causing him to changs his resolution. Without this, perhaps England and France would have written the history of another war.

A jest may sometimes obtain that reward which is devied both to roseon and opportunity. A certain poet every day wailed on the Emperor Augustus le a certain walk, with an epigram in band. He hoped for a recompensa, but none cape. One day the Emperor winking a little pleasant diversion at the expones of the post, presented him some verses which be, the Emperer, had composed in bla booor. The post, after having read them all, drew some silver from his pocket, and gave it to Augustus, saying :--" What Laffer you is not worldly of your me- sit, but I am not able to do more" Augustus, plossed with this new sad piquent reply, presented him with a large som.

The frogment weighs not less than ten and s-quarter lbs of pure crystal! The others in Mr Nanghieu's possession are perfect in shape, and not much less in wright; sad their lengthe extraordiony. In hue they vary. The more va Joable of them-and they lieve cost a large sum- were found in what a gold heater of California would call a plncor, or pocket. The shepherd by whom they were found, discovered marks of ‧ vain in the rock, and by a process of reasoning avl known to the unitiated, arrived at the conclusion that something worth bis pains would probably be found in a certain hollow. He slept out on the mountnie, anil deg fully six feet Into the soil in the hollow of the ravine, when his perseverenco was rewarded by the pose of precious stones now ia Mr Naughton's window. The shepherd and his wife-good fulks-carried the treasures on their backs to lovornet-a distance of fully forty miles-and went home rejoicing, with their pockets well lined with that best stimulent to hard labour -oney. The possessor of the gigantio Cairn- gorms la question states that, during all his long experience in business he never before saw or beard of stones of anything like the site of those we have described.

Our best friend in Africa is a certain King of Dahomey, who toves us so well that he will do anything for os but pot an rod to the slave trade is his dominions, unless upon the terms of our buying off his royal interest in the traffic by a sub- sidy of ￡8000 year. A smaller n?er was ac tually made to his Majesty without success, we sup pase in the days whois Mr Stephen's influrace WAI all powerful. This King of Dahomey goes ban. ting for two or three months every jest. The hounds for his choco are an army of more then 8000 couples advisedly, for nearly a half, or full 8000 are women! Upon this female force the King place the greatest reliance, and they con. stitute bis Majesty's body guard They are his best troops They are trained to storm farts, which they do with extraordinary bravery and skill. They are very fine women, ranging in height from Eve feet eight to five feet nine and ten. Alarcinge in | Achilles, commer not permitted. It would have the proverbial ef- fest of doing things by halves. The King of De homey requested her Majesty to give him some war cops for his slave-bunting Amaz?ns; and to our astopishment we see is stated in evidence that the request was gracionely granted, and that her Majesty sent the King 2000 female war cap. There must sorely be some mistake about this, as it would, if true, involva a preposterous inconsisten | ey. Our cruisers seise and moke prize of any vessel with the slightest evidence of equipment for the slave trade and in it credible that her Majesty can have been advised to furnish any article of equip to the troops actually employed in hunting dowe and capturing the slaves in the interior 1 One would be curious to know what the pattern of the cap could have been for the ladies enacting the part We know something of the of the dogs of war. sort of caps with which fadion design enslaving hearts, but what le the mode, the fashion of the thing for enslaving black bodies? How do they set their cape at mag to make booty of their per. son? What manner of cup does Bellona don when she sets about the foules conquest and on-vereign, barque

THE CAIRNGORM MOUNTAINS.

(From the Inverness Courier.) Never has this inauntain rangu heen so produr. tive of its valuable stones na is has bown during the past winter and spring. It is ont long since we mentioned that a lot of the largest precious stones ever found in this country had been brought in from Cairngorm, nod purchased by Mr Muson, je weller, from a shepherd who la hie lovely was. derings bad found the stones after some very heavy raine in that district. But now the wonder has been exceeded, and the largest stones ever seen. ever found on Scottish mountains, have been pur- chased by Mr Naughten, jeweller here, in whoso wiadow they have lain for some days attracting Moch attollun The largest stone is of a dark violet purple colour, irregular in ita skupa, am? is apparently a juortion only of a stone of unop proached sine. The fragment weighs not less than ten and a-quarter the of pare crystal! The others in Me Nuaghten's possession are perfect in shape, and not much lea in weight; and their lengths extraordinary, In hun bay vary. The more va Iwable of them-and they liave cost a large sum- were found to what gold bauter of Californin would cells place, or pocket. The shepherd by whom they were found, discovered marks of a vein in the rock, mad by process of reasoning mot knows to the unitiated, arrived at the conclusion that something worth ble pains would probably be found in a certain hollow. He slept out on the mountain, and dog fully six feet foto the soil in ibe hollow of the ravine, when his perseverance was rewarded by the pass of precious stones now in bir Naughton's window. The shepherd and his wife-good fulko-curried the treasures on their backs to Inverness distance of fully forty miles-and went home rejoicing, with their pockets well lined with that best stimulant to hard labour -money. The possessor of the pigaatio Caira- gorna in question states that, doring all bis long experience in business he never before enw or beard of stones of anything like the size of those wo have described.

(From the London Examiner.)

Our best friend in Africe is certain King of Dahomey, who lures as so well that he will de anything for us but put an end to the slave trade Ja his dominions, unless upon the terms of nur buying off his royal interest in the traffic by a sub- sidy of ￡8000 vent. A smaller nur was ac tually made to his Majesty without toccres, we sup pose in the days when Air Stephen's insuence was all powerful. This King of Dahomey goes hun.

Upon this female force the Klog places the greatest reliance, and they com- stitute bis Majesty's body guard They are hin best troops They are trained to storm forts, which they do with extraordinary bravery and skill. They are very fine women, tanging in height from five fest eight to five feet ming and ten. Marringe is not perilled. It would have the proverbial of fect of doing things by halves. The King of De homey requested her Majesty to give him nome war capa for his slave-hunting Amoxuns; nod to our astonishment we see it stated in evidence that the request was graciously granted, and that her Majesty sent the King 200 female war cap There must surely he some mistake about this, na would, if true, involve a preposterous inconsisten oy.

Upwards of sight yoara a ago paper was established bearing the name of Hong bong Gazetta, it was immediately incorporated with the Friend of China (than newly started) and up to this period the united publications bere appeared re- gularly no the Friend of China and Hongkong Ge- seito. Six years ago the paper was purchased by the present propietor ( has born "nown aliko by the style" Friend of China" or "Hongkong Clazete:" in the evidence before the Belect Committee of the House of Commons it is called the Hongkong Ga- zette; once, we think, it is referred to as the Friend of China. The appearance on Wednesday of the first number of "Dixson's Hongkong Geants" is the first encroachment upon its designation. Of the strict legality of that encroachment we cannot give an opinion; but nu a breach of established usage, for which there is not the slightest necessity, we submit that it is in bad taste.

If Mr Dixson is the solo pro- prietor of the saw advertising paper, considering where it is printed and his own connection with the press, he had much better have called it "Dixson's China Mail." But the proprietor of the China Mail is also proprietor of " Dixon's Hongkong Genette," the attempt to fosta portion of his property on the public ander a tile which be- longs to soother paper is a very unworthy sol.

In the 95th Regiment, the number of death from this disease was 10; but the large number of 94 deaths ie sinted to have arisen from Intermitten Fever, and it may be reasonably suspected that | some of these were complicated with Dysentery.

In July, Remittent Favere prevailed. There ware, also, cases of acute Hepatitis and Splenitis, showing the commencement of visceral dissabes destined to terminats their career in Dysentery.

The month of Augum was remarkable for the umber of cases of Dysentery, from which there were three deaths; in every instance the victim of this disease had previously suffered from, and

The population of this city is every day affected by immigration, and although the adventurons and unknown strengers who visit the colony for a short tine will swell the numbure of the living, they one- tribute nothing to the records of the devil; nor is it possible to obtain any account of their destinies.

The thinese hold very solemn capereitious relat ing to death.

Many instances of this kind must annually occer amongo persons who are un- known to their survivors horo. Notwithstanding this source of error in the returns of general morta- lity, which will constitute a certain and invariable Average, the proportion of dead to the living will, in comparison with other years,--if the calculation of population be coerentae, -(for there is reason to be- love that it has not been lose for the preceding two yours then it is aslimsted for the last),-bear the emme celativo por contage na it deas in the various swotions of the popolation, and thus, uniformly with the rest, show gratifying diminution in the number of deaths for the last year.

It may be said of some of the foregoing Tables and calculations that they are not strictly correct, and this remark applies especially, and perhape alone, to the calculations embracing the entire popolation. Precisely the same cause of inue- ourncy bave existed in the two previous years, and there can be no doubt that they will always pos Does an average and uniform proportion to this truth. This fact indeed is made apparent by a comparison with the sectional statistics, which are known to accurate.

Lastly, may be remarked, that the experience of every year, and the truths which accumulated facta elicit, convince me that the sanatory pecd. liarities of the climate of Hongkong have been misunderstood, and its vila sacessively exagge rated; and that the fiuer are not entirely beyond the reach of a remedy.

A correspondent of the Timer, at Manila, hao sant for publication in that jurul the following interesting account of a white woman who was dis covered living among the savage oatives of an is land in the Southern Ocean, by the crew of her Hajody's ship Rattlesnake, which, in company with the Bramble, is engaged making suientific lorestigeons on that distant portion of the earth's surface. The facts are given on the authority of

‧ Me Applin, who had returned from Cape York with a worship, which had been sunt out with sup pline to the expedition.

"EXTRACT FROM MY JOURNAL.

* Capa Youn, Oct. 16, 1849.-This has been indeed an eventful day, and one perhaps of greater interest them. I have ever before experienced, Wa have had the satisfaction of discovering and releas ing a white woman (Scotch) who has been in the po session of the ostires on one of the islands in this neighbourhood for the last four or five years (most probably Prince of Wales Island.) She was discovered thus: It being the lawl day of our stay here, Captain Laviva ami rayself, in company with Mr Class, asistant-surgeon of the Bramble, had lives about three miles from the watering-place st resolved upon sisiting large encampment of na Evana Bay, where we were lying. For this pur. pse he took a native, named Drubu, as a guide, and on arriving at the beach on the west side of York Peninsula, naw at a point of land about ball- a-mile ou, three canoes containing 60

70 natives. just about to anchor, but who on a signal from out guide immediately paddled off toward us. These we at fra inaglood to have been our caliras, who had beau out Rohing, but soon discovered on their land.

rather auspicious-looking, we only stayed fow ing that they were strangers, and all men, having with them their spears, clubs, &c. Thinking thie minutes, andoyouring to make them understand that we were friendly, and then returned, paround. and tobacco. Only two canoes had arrived as ye ing thom to accompany me, promising them biscuit the third, which it appears contained the white woman, astived as we wero returning, and had we stayed a minute or two longer we should have seen her land with the natives. It is, perhaps, fortugale that we did not, for we should certainly bare sa- deavoured to obtain possession of bar. The natives would then most likely here overpowered no und Lakun ber auny, or cha, intimidated by our guns, would have hurried into their canoes, and we should have lost her. As it it was they followed up behind us, she having previously recognised us to be white men, and having tuld the blacks not to be afraid of our gone as we were but friends, In her eagerness to follow us, she bust bor kovos by falling among the rocks, sed did not succeed in overtaking us. Upon her arrival at a small camp of natives near the watering place, one of the sailors of the Rattlesnake, who happened to be there anw ber, and with these or four of his mates advanced towards ber, when, after some conversation with the antives, she gave herself up to the white mes, and returned with them to the watering place. Sho appeared to be about 2) or 29 years of age, of n- Ibera slight figure, and, I think, decidedly good- looking. She was naked, with the exception of grea girdle round her waist, after the fashion of the native women of those parts, and in her car. ringe and walk resembled them completely: ber

Milton and Galileo-The visit of the young Hilton to Galileo in the dungoun was vue of thure felicitaup conjucenons which an indulgent Provid enco permite at long intervals. It reminds us, at Most distance-and with everenco, be it spoken -of the meeting which took place on the way to Damascus. Surely the stars were propitious which brought together, in ore inmortel interview, the old and oung moons of the century, to reflect ench other's lustre, to look for a morrent into each other's eyen, to exchange their gifts,-Milton landing to Galileo his youthful kope, and receiving, in return al?r result of Galileo's old experience; and then to travel un, through varied section of the commo night, toward the dawning of eternal faina. From this transient touching of such men, did not double virtue come out? We have nover seen ar heard of way painting on the subject; but it were there for the noblest pencil-this meeting of Italy's old pavan, and England's young scholar- the grand, grey baited unge, each wrinklo on luo furehend the furrow of a star-and the "lady uf his college," with Commus curling in his fair lucka, And the dream of Eden sleeping on his emouth brow, reverence kam the eyes of the one meeting with wounder in those of the uthar - while the din twilight of the cell, spotted by the fierce eyes of the +ficials, seemed the "age" too late of (cu carly ou which both had fallen. It was like the meeting of Boring, wish her one ster and coming day, and

course, but with a ship or ships nearly filled, the temptation to put on board a chop or two of new Congou (even if they cost a long price) is not easily resisted. It is again reported that the tes trade with foreignere is to Nimited to a few privileged Arms, and that on additional export duty is to be levied. We scarcely think this will be done openly and avowedly; the Cohong system was specially dis- allowed by the reaty of Nanking, und Beu will not dare to introduce it again At the same time it is liks enough that some thing skin ta it will be at. tempted under the pretext of checking smuggling.

However this many be, they were unquestionably the lools of a very different class of malcontents, and alilough na is one hand it is contended that these outrages called for the prompt repression and condign penishment due to boloous offences against property and life, a is stated on the other hand that the tree clues of the insurrection were strictly political, On his first trival at Ar- gostuli Sir Henry Ward wrote as follows :-

As to paying any more Police Rate, we must put our reto on that, certainly.

The Ghaut Serangship Goe Lascara and Mn- nita men does not appear to give general satis- faction: but the Colony must not complain about that, because a certain revenue is derived by extraction of a portion of the kard earnings of the poor fellows, in the shape of a fee to the Berang, who pays the government a small sum per annum for his license. In last year's secount of revenue, we see that the price paid, amounted to six hundred dollars; this year we believe it exceeds this sum.

We hope that the aggregate receipts of to night will prove a benefit indeed, and help to return the loss, which we are given to under- stand Monsieur Kennebol sustains through bringing his company to Hongkong, where general patronage has been very scant,

We cannot account for this neglect of a very innocent means of enlivening existence.

We have some curiosity to learn the next place intended by Lord Grey na receptacle for our European Convicts, now that the Cape Colonists decline the honour of thoir company. In the same paper wo notice the death, on the 3rd November last, of Captain Rolla, M.A, whose evidence it will be remembered was re- ceived (of his reminiscences on board the ill- fated ship Sea Gull,) in the case of the Queen splying both the Defenden, who are Partners, with Lungley.

Awowo our re-prints from other papers, will bo found a memoir of the late Captain Congelton II. C. 9. well known to many residents in Chi ne, to whom, a detail of the services of one, who worked his way upwards by shere honest merit, will not be uninteresting.

The servants of the Mongkong Government, who like the "worthy Congalton "are striving honestly for advancement, will see that Gover nor Bonhamn is not the man to overlook their services if fully cognizant of them.

Had his Excellency been the immediate successor of Sir Henry Pottinger, bringing with him, as Governor Davis dil, his own official off, we believe the Colony would have been in a different position to what it now is,

OREAT EXHIBITION

Our councils are still favoured with the ad. vice of some of the same officials, whose rug. gestions--we presume, at the propounding of the io-part recited resolutions, were not uost tended to; and it has druck us as very strange, that there should be such an apathy exhibited, in neglecting in the present day, to profit by the wisdom and the determination of the past.

We have stated that "amongst other of the causes of sickness, no inconsiderable weight was attached to the presumed effect of burying within Town precincts.

Our Contemporary, from his greater ex- perience, will, however, handle the matter bet. ter than ourselves, and we defer our remarks, until after his next imue, when, probably, they may be rendered unnecessary.

The Ordinance establishing a Court of Petty Bessions contains, however, a clause (Section V) authorising the infiction of not more than thirty-six strokes with a Rattan; and that amount we witnessed the infliction of, on the five rascals respectively, who, personating watchmen, un authorisedly searched and robbed a boat in the karbour, on Wednesday last (see Case No. 4, Petty Sessions Report).

Of all the forms of punishment devisable for the effectual prevention of crime, we think this |to be, that, best suited for the Chiness. They are a astion of over grown boys who never can arrive at men bood, and in punishment should receive over grown boys' treatment,

Corporal punishment is not statutsable, and may not therefore be decreed by the Supreme Court; otherwise, wo doubt not, but Judge Hulme would some times award it,

Dr Bowring's enquiries, if we remember |"right, had referencs, mainly, to the amounts and the particular offences, for which such punishments were inflicted.

Thirty-six strokes, the prescribed number, is quite sufficient for the strongost, man to bear at one times and we would suggest the propriety Demb recorded of submitting the sufferere to an examination by the Colonial Surgeon, before tying them up Lood get tried

Consideration, indeed, might be had, to, the ad- vitability of loflicting the punishment at the bo- ginning, or end, of the term of imprisonment; or, of making a reservation in the sentence, that, if the criminal behaved properly during his incarceration, a portion of the number of strokes should be remitted; or-on production of proper parties, who would bind themselves to rendition and receipt of a flogging. if the delinquant again became amenable to justice, a total forgiveners of such punishment.

The prevention of crime, not the simple punishment of the offender, is the object prop erly guiding judicial ventonces.

One of those, whose punishment we witnem-

ed, we remember for a long time in European employ. Having a brother in the Police, he had learnt with what impunity crimes, of the nature of that of which he was convicted, could be accomplished, nod had it not been for the vigilance of Police Sergeant Da Silva, in apprehending him, he would doubtless have escaped, for his Brother (Police Constable No. 117) was present, and, with a woman, gave sonia very contradictory evidence, simply baffling the Court.

Their Worship the Justices of the Pesce for Hongkong, will find examinations here, very different matters from what they are at home. The invariable mendacity of the witnesses, who say just what suit their views of the case-and their atheism, and consequent indifference to wear to any thing, renders the most scrutini- zing examination absolutely necessary.

From Mr Hillier's long practice as a Police Magistrate, his knowledge of Chinese charact- er is naturally great, and public interests would suflor in his absence as Chairman of the Court of Petty Sessions.

Owing to the arrival of the Overland Mail we were prevented from attending at the Court of Paity Sessions on Thursday leat. We append however, a list of the cases tried. It will be observed that Wong-Ahung, against whom we thought there was sufficient evidence to warrant committal on a charge of perjury, has managed to evade his deserts, some-bow or other.

The license baving been obtained Fugo may not complain, excepting by Petition to His Excellency in Council, who, if Fugo makes out

■ clear case, will probably withdraw the pre- Tionaly granted permission. If a licenso has not been obtained, the offender or his landlord, is open, at suit of the crow, to an action for breach of covenant.

There is no local enactment regarding the stor age of Gunpowder manufactured out of China. Government have discreetly left it to the good sense of the Citizens, who, it is presumed, for their own sakes, will know better than to store such a dangerous commodity where there is danger of its igation.

The death of Lieutenant Phillpotty, after an ill- ness of three days only, (wo soon after that of the loud of this department Major Biscoe) causes general alar?n.

The Royal Engineer corps in China is now without a Commissioned officer.

Mr Phillpotte was a young gentleman of good abilities and bold in much osteoin. The now will be a sad blow to his amiable family who have so recently left our shores, The Corporal who attended him in the sick chamber has died also.

For some weeks past the Engineer corps has had to do sentry duty, because the 59th Regt., |with a full third of its strength on the sick list is found incapable of performing their usual routine. We are told that a sight of the invalids in hospital (the one adjoining the engineer of |fice) is quito painful,-as our informant dated * they are huddled together like baned sheep,"

It is for Government to consider the pro- priety of renting houses in different parts of the, town and removing convalescents, or those with light cases, into thein; and having more room by such removal, to partition the long roonis into series of small wards.

It is painful enough to a healthy man to see a friend die; the effect must be very great on

sickly one.

Tun translated Circular printed below, bears | in original, the Harbour master's official seal, and may be seen posted on walls in vicinage of Broding places and Police stations in Vic- luria.

Only those who know the ohatinacy Bod stupidity of Chinese boatmen will denm its in- culcation necessary.

| We can but express our opinion, however that there is something singularly out of Govern ment proclamation stylo in the circular before or. This may, in part, arise frosa faulty transla- tion-but the translation, we are assured, is not very for wrong; and we contrast its lenient spirit with tho wuthoritative tone of the Harbour | regulations for European vessels.

"Romoving without permission from the barth pointed out on arrival, subjects the master of a Vessel to a fine of $100,-remaining in any berth after official request to inove-$20 per hour.-Neglecting to follow such directions as in the judgment of the Harbour Master are ne- cesary and expedient #200,"-and so on.

Contrast the above with the Circular's exor. dium-its recommendation-ita remonstrance, and its appeal to the good senso! (ave the Mark) Our readers can but arrive at the con- clusion, that there is one law for the English- man, another for ibe Chinese, in this Colony.

In connection with these remarks we have to notice a nuisance calling for instant abatement.

Just without the prescribed distance of a hundred and fifty yards from low water mark, may be seen, between the Central and western markets, a parcel of Chinese fishing boats: They remain quiet all day mending seine or caring fish; but, the moment the morning gun fires, there is such a clamour -such a rattle of bam. boos upon the gunwales of the boats-(to in- duce fish go quietly into the aste) that we

are told sleeping in the locality indicated is ab. solutely impossible.

The Bamboo Ordinance, No. 17 of 1844, han partial application to the case-but, it is not for the in sabitants of Victoria to find out what is, or is no, the law applicable to the nuisance. It lies in the provinco of the Harbour master or the Superintendent of Police to do that. We trust the foregoing remarks will have the affect of drawing forth another Circular in which pains and penalties shall be specified if Andoyanco le continued,

The following is the translated Circular ro- Gerred to: -

I bave porpsely intendused this quotation, be cavou il given the sanction of a great name, quiling other great names, to a derivatian of Elons, which I am persuaded is incorrect. Glesenius a higher mothoray in Hebrew and Arabie eriticism, than rithar Shultens of flelmercius while, in his Lexi- con, he desires Fleek from Alok, no proverted in the Arabic, gives the primitive meaning of that verb at "tour" and "ite worship" at a eccondary signification. In a sentence, moreover, apperdvd, by Dr Smith, in the later editions of his great work to the note which I lave just quoted, he says that *Gevalue supposes the radical meaning of Alah in to be stric with wwe." It is easy to perceive that to worship is a menodary eignification to to fear. We worship because of the qualities which we apprebended in the object of ur aderation. These fill us with awe, and of that sua worship in the fiting expression. It is an earz 10 perc?iva why Gesenim should not be able to rent in the rad ical meaning of the seth us being to frer instead of to make afraid. Elook, as well as El, hug the form of an live principle. 10 the proper icon. ing of ennt be in aurskip. Elook would mean, Fle who worships-the worshipper, and not the spor. skipped: il the enot be determined as meaning ta fear, them the moun will signify, He who fiai- the fearer, and ant the feared" Buch nun cuuki Dolore e the name of the Supreme Bring, but if the radica) mesning of Alah bo to strike with awe we then ahinin in Elook the iden of the awo atruler which at least in not self contraditory.

The Lule of this derivation of Eleck from the mot Alak, which has been hat altogether in tho Hebrew, in to my mind very ansatisfactory. Be- fute pasing from it, however, let me observe, that whether we adopt the account of Schultens, or the Treult of the latent reamcebes of G-senius-be- ther we conclude that Elook means the object of adoration or the axe striker--the word is relative. In the one case, mae by the art of worship miskes loth or God-liboot man worshipping, Juho- Eng is not God : in the other case, se men are red Chorah is the awe striker God-without beings to Hawed. Jehovah does not exist at God.

At Quke different from the Gramasriane, who have "been referred to above, Furrat given the root of Fload as El and supposes the verb Alah to be formed from it "As in the Hebrew," he mys."

alp? in Arabic, the verb aluk is not the origin of the Devine name, bot, on the euatsury, the verb is Formed from the name."

If I might venture myself to give an account of the derivation of Ebak, it would be the

blowing.

Aaland Alak are, in the Hebrew lingsings, eng- nate forme We have sud and nodeh, mais and matzak, &e, with the same radical meaning, and the existing lenses of such verbs are sometimes from bath the form, suartimes from the una, and some since from the other. Often the ground form ir l in fort, while the formation remaine. Noch is the case, I sujuose, with Alah and Elook. Aul, in deed, in obekts no well as Alok A. from And we have the noun El with the meaning of the activa Lostrad, participle, so from Alch we have Eloah therefore, of saying that look is karand from EL I regard them both, as bel-uging to one fuot, abil baying the same identical meaning-denoting the forth putter of power.

To Correspondents.

Tazka was a meeting at the United States Consulate on the evening of Thursday Inst (F. T. Bush Esq. in the Chair) to hear the an- nual report of the "Destitute Sick Foreigner's Society."

It is not often we bear of meetings being adjourned, as this one was, for the purpose of having "accounts audited and put in proper shape-roport prepared in detail &c."

Such adjournment, for such purposes, is a severe reproof to some one or other.

This is a Bociety of which His Lordship the Bishop should be nominated Patron, and the Officiating Colonial Chaplain, Becretary.

The annual meetings of this Society, by the way, have always hitherto been ball at St. Paul's College;-in fact, we believe, this really necessary society owes its existence to the Revd Mr Stanton,and we are sorry to me it languishing in his absence.

Wa have some slight remembrance of a prom- is made by the Mail," a few months back, to furnish the public with an exposition of his

Toria. We beg to remind the Mail" that now in the time, or nover, to benefit the public with such views.

"Jon" is too late for to-day's issue. We crave ideas on the subject of Market-holding in Via- his patience.

We have to inform Invarado that in Hongkong our Markets have sea frontages, and we do not know of such a naisenca so that he complains of experiencing in Macao. Probably, if an ad- dress to the Council of the government were signed by all the resident sufferers (lavalido is not singular in having acute olfactory nerves we presume) orders would be given to have fish landed in the inner harbour only.

The Lease of the Grand Central Market expired on the 80th ultino, and Government | are " in a Gx" as to what they shall do with it. In the absence of the Governor, however, and having relation to past circonstances, wa are not surprised at the subject having been found too delicate a one for his locum tenens 10 bandle, or to advise upon,

"Register" of yesterday, has a contions- tion of his disquisition on sickness and mortal- ity among the troops in garrison.

Our opinion as to the cause, does not appear

to be subscribed to by our Contemporary. The

‧ Register" reiterates a variety of causes which lin says may not be, and yet-may be.

"The cause of this mortality"-enys the Register- may not be in the position of the Barracks; it may not be in their reputed wanted of ventilation: It may not be in the poor rations which are obtainable by the men; it may not be in the night duty (1) to which they are exposed; a may not be in their samhoo drinking propensities and it mat nu in one or more

of all these.

Now this is all just so much twaddle- simply--a trifling with a very grave subject.

We coa?dently tell the "Register" that the main cause of the mortality is not in the position of the Barracket is not in their reputed want not the night duty (two hours per man of ventilation -it is not the poor rations-it twice a wook); and lastly it is not in the amboo drinking propensities,

We propose to dilate a little on each of these positions, and taking the last first, we beg to advise the Register, before again charging a body of men with drunkennem, to enquire a little into grounds for such asertion. We have it on the united testimony of several officers of the 50th Regiment, that a steadicr set of soldiers were never stationed in British Colony-punishments for intoxication are hardly known amongst them.

These may be divided into three closes, accord. ing to the interpretation which they have given of this character.

First. The great majority of Biologues hava believed that Skis means spirit.

The term is never spiked of in couunaca. ion with the controversy, an?l down to the presso day, with two partiu? exceptions, of which I shall speak in their proper place, Skis has onver been rendered God by any Roman Catbolic Misionary. On the contrary, in i?nie tenmolitions from native works, they reuder k,when in the concrete, by " "pirit" or "spirits," and in their own production. for the bearst of their Chinese converts, they us the word, just as we should apply in English the words spirit and spiritua!.

WHEN the Junk "Wing Oen" was brought here by her piratical Captors, or rather when discovery was made of what had been done on board of her, some curious rumours prevail ed as to the guilty knowledge of some of our residents. No wonder that the Chinese Gov. omment regret having given up the Island to us, when it affords such a secure haven for desperadoes, who are afraid to go with thoir of gotten booty into ports on the mainland.

We are almost prepared to subscribe to the opinion, that it would be better to have a Cus- tuin house heru, and an institution of the strict est enquiry into the character of every Chi- nese vessel arriving. Boarding Chinese vessels on arrival in barbour is a duty more honoured in the breach then the observance. Official announcement of what should, or should not, be done by the Harbour Master, is imperatively called for.

Second, The Nestorians Christians who appears to have entered Chine in the sixth omtury, and whose churches ware al nou time very numcrose, understood Skin in the signification of spirit. The Mohammedans bavo alanys done the same, The aliochowa, who ought in understand Chinese s well at fenol as any other foreignoto, take him in the Manchew, published by the British and Forrige sane sense, and in the vorsion of the Scripture en B.beoiety. God is tendered by a distant mont from that by which the Manchowe render the CN- 400 Shin, The Cochin Ohinem also seador Bhin by their word Than, which moveze spirit?? Among the Japanese also. Si lo translated Kami, e a soul or spirit The Supreme Being some to be called Ametrinu okukani -The great spirit of the pore konvens; but i prewa?ne he must have another quide into whin's Kami do's art unter at all.

Thus then it appears that, in regarding Skin us equivalent to our word spirit. I am not only accord. ing with the deftiona of it given by the Ohluss themselves, but am supported by nearly all formiga er, who have ever hail occasina to make themarivas acquainted with the Chinese language. And yet some Protsatan Mesionarios sow wish is render the terme Blohim and Three in the Old and New 'Testamente continu?ily by Skin, never wing is for spickt, and it has been propoerd even, that Minivan- nee who will not nan that term for God skall b permitted to avail themselves of the rarited vacaton, to sech a des of (1. which has been the work of mea, decidedly opposed

Against the tendering of Elekim and Theme by (Ski). I enter the following specisu objections.

First, Bis dore not mean what Elohim and Those man. They are curreally roadaced in English by God, and Bkin hy spirit We con ne more iranulate Elohim and Thew into Chinate by Hhio, than wo oculi translate them into English by spark.

The great abysat of Bishop Boone's t'eras, pub. Saked two years ago, le to meet this objection. I bat quated his account of the men?lag of Skin la the concrete, vis, that it signises "a god or god?."* Dr Morrison in one passage, had spoken of orrinh Bhin as grali, baz afterwarde he mili them Goda, which Dr Bonne okerreas, "These inferlar deities, though at first by the Doctor called goli, uro abans warda erely coodered by him Gede, so they are all object of religious worship." From this, and similar passages, and the general strain of his Emmy, I supposed, when 1 published my argument, that ba understel God as meaning object of warship. I could not otherwise make out any connectise in his ressing bara been given to underajand, how- ever, that his resaoping is not that God manna ae- ject of worship, or ibni Bada moans abjaat of war. ship, bot that the Skin, being worshipped, are le be regarded AB the Gods of China, and that therefore Bhin is the generic name for God, and God, a God and Glade ought to be translate by Shin. Trial genated to him that the Bhie are to be regarded AS the Gods of Chine, I do not see the bridge from that to the omalusion, that Shda le to be translated God. or that Blakim sod These are to be rendered by Shis. We may regard rice A9 the oatmeal of Chins, but if I were to translate a trentino open satman! late Chinees, I should write to kutla parpoon, if I spoke all through of fun. If the Aral Segimon work, "Osmeel is a Extinaceous food mie?i, need in or main ausnerino," nad' ! guro E, "Rias Je a faring cross food mesh used 'in sortaid constr?du" the Chinese could not parfbly understand me of any thing, barrier.

We do not believe that there is a single liberal minded person in Chine (having a knowledge of Dr Bowring's attainments und energy) but willingly subscribe to the truth of every syllable then written.

Speaking of the facility with which, in a short time, Dr Bowring had acquired a considerable acquaintance with the Chinese language, we designated it "as a facility peculiarly his own" mod, as that gentleman has long burns the char

Consequently, no stenoh was left after they were discharged. Much as we duglign the fact of these unpleasant articles of commerce par ing heen in the vesel, and disposed alee to ensure the respective Officers of Ordnance for taking her up on this account, we at once veiemet any part of our article of Wednesday the 14th instant, if it is supposed to have an injurivas tendency,

There is yet, however, another very grovo prant to be dilated on, and that in the subject of the scuttles, which, as before stated, look Uke pins' baade through tha broad white struck. To remedy this defect and it is a defect in a hospital abup which Do man can guin-say) Captain Brown has had jargo tin reatilators made, catobing the breeze as it comve in to the upper row of porta, and carrying it bolow through small scuttles in the upper deck. There was hardly breath of air say where when wo were on board,but the between Cocks were not at ull uncomfortable Another improvement we took the liberty of suggesting, and that was the organization of a whole phalanx of small pankahs, by which the air could be kept in circolation during the best day.

We can only add in conclusion, that we were much pleased with every thing we saw and board on board. We went up the side with a dogged determination of jotting down overy item that could tell against the vessel, and here the public have the result. If any of our readers are disposed to derm it partial and oss elded. We sey-89 bosid and judge for yourselves.

laide as described to na, wa slated nothing that was untrue, we know that the tendency of that article was the making the former ship appear a different one from what we and her to be. That the pub- lic are as well served as they are in this sage, how- ever, is in no way owing to the prudence and fore- sight of our publie functionaries; for to choose a vessel with scuttles only, in preference to o?n with porta, at a time of the year when sar-mit-ule in the great devidtentum, la doing so, we say, wa deem that the aid functionaries have evidenced shair full and perfect sight and title so she designation be stowed upon Royalty, by the Teddington butcher- boy."

of it;

many of our propositions in regard to keeping the Bolliery in beikh are desercing of no attention whatever simply because because we do not un Ade-derstand all the ins and outs of the question. Bat here is this remarkable fact which cannot be repudiated, we pointed oot that the bread was bad and that good ought to be supplied; good broad was supplied; and from that moment the siokoems absted, the mortakty within a week changed from twenty to three, and those who fortnight before were close open the Valley of the Bhadow of Dok can now bars a Jockroach round the "Co- romandel'." decks like jolly young plongh boys.

Now if good bread has done all this, we ask the question in all simplicity. "Is Cook-eye Ayowmunity as far as lies in his power, we to to go on supplying any more sour muff and shall he make hale men sick again 1" As far as we can underwand although Government bound Ayow down in two securities of $2,250 each and a sum of $500 bard Cash to be retained for the dus pet formance of his side of the agreement-there was never a word said about Government liberty to buy as much as was pleasing from bim and much as was necessary from say one else; conse quently not a single loaf may be taken from Ayow and yet the contract alanis good.

Binca our last is we have had an opportunity of inspecting the "Coromandel," the veral engaged for the invalide; and take the ensliant possible opportunity of botifying to the very comfortable quarter with which the poor fellows seo provide.l. The "Coromandel" is only six years old, and we do not think we were ever on board a ship in nicer

order; her between decks are very lofty, being eight fest six inches in the clear, and the great length and the breadth of boom are certainly very great qualifications for the service in which she is now engaged

Capt, Brown it in easily anom, leaves nothing un- done for adding to the comfort of all on board; and we are assured that the change in the men since embarkation is quite surprizing: During the first and second days l'sey were fintless, and a it were, caruless of life, to use the words of our informace (Dr Francis, the surgeon of the vessel) ba" fairly quivered at the sight of them," Four days after going on board however they are so much recor- ered that there is quite a busy hum of overeation between decks; and songs and cheerful jokes are not wanting.

Now this is all just as it should be, and we have much greater pleasura in talling the public of the good that has already been effected, ilan we have bitherto sek la informing them of much to the contrary.

Boued however an ** are by repostad promises to have soulblay oni the Commissariat arrangements before the Blail leaver, we ate compelled to base our remarks, not on the actual prices, but, upon the rates stated in re- ected tenders that is to say-the price at which articles are supplied to the Commisariat are even lower than those hare given:-for instance. Cock-eye Ayow is to supply upwards of 30 lbs. of

Broad for $1.

Suger was lendored by othern at 34 cena par lb. one pound count as one pound only, all the Ponkry Fowls 7 cents per lb. and whilst all Fowl over under peood is totally rejected.)

From this detail the public can julge i to Mr Dallas, and, we again give it as of themselves how gratuitous has been he opinion that the "Mail's article was write with malignant intent. If the Editor l arreprinted it in his overland it would sorre l' very well right to be--but he dare not de a third time.

Bread in England we believe averages six pance the quartar lond; this is something like 30 lb per 1. Bol against this fact there is another and it is in no way 'astonishing" for nearly every person here is aware of it. Flour in England costs say 6 dollar, per Barrel; bare it averages 12 dollars and is some- timen very much higher than that.

Since our last inde we have had an opportunity of inspecting the Coromandel," the vereel engaged for the invalida; and take the earliest possible opportunity of ustifying to the very comfortable quarters with which the poor fellows are provided. The "Caremandel" is only six years old, and we do not think we were ever on board a ship in nicer order; ber between decks are very lofty, being eight fea alz inches

the clear, and the great length and the breadib of beam are certainly very great qualifications for the service in which abe is now engaged

Capt. Brown it is easily soon, leaves nothing an. done for adding to the comfort of all on board; and we ata kured that the change in the man aince embarkation is quite surprising: During the firel and second days (sey were listless, and as it were, carves of life, to use the words of our informan (Dr Francis, the surgeon of the vessel) be fairly quivered at the sight of them." Four days after going on board however they are so much recor- ered that there is quite a bway hum of onversation between docks; and songs and cheerful jokes are bol wanting. Lightrem were told off for guard duty on Wednesday evening.

Now this is all just as li should be, and we have much greater pleasure in telling the public of the good that has stready been effected, Lan we have bihorto fakt in informing them of so much to the contrary. Our readers are naturally anxious to learn " how about the Fish mewe and Shock Fine" and bave heard with much re- gr that our statement regarding them in in any way likely to prove prejudicial to the Ship

Tun Contract for provisioning the Gerrian, nado entered into and concluded sometime in the Spring of 1849 was renewed in the Spring of 1850, in order to enable the Contractor to regain a sum of $3,000 alleged to have been lost in the previous year. Mr Quong-hung alias Cock-eye dyow the said Contractor is at present on a visit to his an, have soosequently been un. able to obtain from him a true list of the prices of the different scision supplied. Bound bewever as we are by repealed promises to have socialay on the Commitment arrangements before the Mail leaver, we are compelled to base our remarks, mot on the actual prioen, but, upon the calon stated in sa ectod leaders that is to my-he prices at which acticles are supplied to the Commimist are even lower than these here given ;~~for instance. Cock-eye Ayow is to supply upwards of 30 lbs of

Fowls 7 conta par tb. food whilst all Fowl over one pound count as one pound only, all the Pealtry andar a pound is totally rejected.) There are thany other articles enumerated in the Contract but those we have named are sufficient to dilate upon at the present. At Chosan during the War we remember having board it said that the dreadfut mortality in the ranks of the 96th was accounted for by the food being so bad that it could not be eaten." When the 56ths were dying so fast at West Point we heard the same allegation,

We will pare over the mortality among the 95th in 1848. It was a diferent species of some to that of the present year. We walked once through the hospital at the time the epidemic was at its height, and from what we alerted we inclined to the opinion that it was Cholers which then made nach bavo.

Now how can a Contractor afford to supply a wholesome article if be is bound down to do it at a fixed price like this. If the Contract were made for any five years and the opiciar could organize arrangements for re ceiving flour direct from America or New South Wales, it would be altogether a different maller.

Want of space compels us to leave the remainder of our remarke until next issue.

We took up his paper yesterday vainly hoping that one lit the scrap of intelligence for our "Overland is- que might be gleaned. But no, some filly lines of police of the new newspaper, and the tenth of that number to the record of a highway robbery (upon whom, and by whom, the "Mail" telleth aol,) were all the editorial we could find, barring two full columas tand- ing only to the more complete confirmation of his previous unblushing falsehood.

Whist the public are to understand by hla remark, that, if he supposed the allegation rested on the sole authority of the Editor of the (this) Journal in which it appears it would pass unnoticed" we do not know. If we would but take it, doubtles it is intended to be very cutting. He questions our authorship of the having perpetrated it, as well as the "number article also bat we must plead guilty to lose imperfections" his Correspondent "Civis" speaks of,

The fact of the matter was simply as stated, We were surprised at his first romark,and much more so al bis reiteration of the iosuk. We bad not heard the subject mentioned by any one, in any way, and what was written was writ- ten prompt, (the early appearance of our paper after the "Mail" must have taught is

Binca our last us we have had an opportunity of inspecting the" Coromandel," the vereel engaged for the invalide; and take the earliest possible opportunity of testifying to the very comfortable quarters with which the poor fellows are provided.

near Loughall, Ireland, dated September 11th, 1848,

To Professor Holloway.

Respected Friend,-Thy excellent Pills here effectually cured mo of as Ambma, which afflicted me for thron years to such an extent, that I was uskged to walk my room at night for air, afral?k (of being suffocated if I went to bed by cough and phlegm. Besides taking the Pills, I rubbed plenty of thy Vintment into my obest night and morning.

Bazaman Maorio. (Signed) CURE OF TYPHUS FEVER. WHEN BUPPOSED TO BE AT THE

PUINT OF DEATH.

A respectable female in the neighbourhood of Longball, was attacked with Typhus Furst, and

lay for fro days without having tested any dos- sription of food. the was given over by the Bar. geos, and preparatios were made for her demies. Mr Benjamin Mackie, the Quaker, whose case is referted to above, board of the circumstance, and knowing the immense boneft that he himself had derived from Holloway's Pills, recommended as imediate trial, and eight were givan to har, und the bus number was contlaved night and mor Ding for three days, and fo a very aliort time she was completely sured.

NB. From advice just received, it appears that Gol. Doar, who is with his Regiment in fudis, the 21st Funloers, cured himself of very bad at Lack of Puree by these celebrated Pilla. There is no doubt that any Fever, however malignant, may be cared by taking, night and morning, copious doses of this fine maderine. The patient should be fndured to drink plentifully of warm linseed tou or barley water.

Dr Macgowan may well entertain such fears, for the trivial duty of calling a meeting

in 1838 in Canton, just before the commence. ment of the war. Brought into existenco at a most eventful period, despite many difficulties, has been neglected for the space of two years, and even now it is called by a gentleman who, its success for several years was most cheer- ing. Whilst Mr Colledge, formerly Surgeon if we remember aright, was only made aware to the Company's lactory in China, and Dr of his appointment as Vice-President, by peeing Anderson is successor (afterwards our Col. This name in the pages of the Hongkong Direc onial Surgeon) romained here, things went on tory.

These difficulties have never been sur mounted; and we have been informed that at the next meeting, measures will be proposed, through the carrying of which, the Hongkong branch of the Medical Missionary of China will be finally brought to a close.

We ray the "Hongkong branch," in contradia tinction to the "Canton branch" of this Society; but, as both are designated branches, soine will perhaps say-Where are head quarters and this is the question out of which all to difficul-

ties have arisen.

Having suggested compliance with Dr Parker's wish as in the denomination for s Rociety, we would recommend for considera. tion, at the next meeting, the advisability of re modelling the Hongkong Society, and changing its name from "Medical Missionary" to "Philan thropic" Society of China, or some other such general term. It is unreasonable-according to human practice to expect the members of ons Missionary Bocioty to fall in with the views of another. The heterodoxy of the London Mis sionary Society's Agents may not harmonious- ly mingle with the orthodoxy of the Church- man! nor. In measures propounded for the good! of Chinn, are we to expect the American and the foreigner to yiek! implicit respect to the decisions of an English conclave.

In our opinion Dr Parker has fairly won the position assumed, and we say, by all means let

THE FRIEND OF CHINA

The "Mail." Chinese correspondent tells us that one Chang kia-siang, of King yuon, with his younger brother Chang-kia fuh, have openly sat up their standards and bangers styling thom- selves Ta-wang (their Majestica.) In another part of that paper, we read, that the movement not" of the revolutionary character with which somo foreigners are disposed to invest and that "as yet there is no shadow of ground for believing that their sins is the subver- sion of the Tartar dynasty." Wo hardly know how to reconcile these conflicting statements.

Can any one give to us a different definition for | the term "Subscription" than that it is altogether"

■ voluntary affair, and may at no time be suod for? The term used for money paid for coun- sole opinion in " Fec." Subscription to a pa- per, and fee to counsel, appear to us synonym. in the CatRental Creich w Sr. John sy, on Sageous terms;--the difference being this,-in

This is our opinion of the matter; our prede. cessors in the proprietary of this paper hare ontertained a similar view; and in all the sight yearu and a half of the "Friend of China's" establishment, the courts have never once been troubled to aid in the recovery of the smallest obecription.

We looked in at the Government Civil Hospital yesterday. A police at the font of the stair case beaded "advertence." (or advertencia, Por- toguese for advertisement) tells us, that the permamion of the Superintendent of Police or the Colonial Surgeon is requisite, before any one may visit a patient. The Superintendent to whom we applied said. however, that he knew nothing at all about the hospital. If it is a Government Civil Hospital, the permit of any Justice of the Peace is all that is requisite we take it. We therefore make no apology to the Colonial Hurgeon for noticing the 6thy state of the bed on which the man Palmer is lying. Bad as the man may be, he is not to be treated with downright crucity ; and it is at the poor wretch's request that we solicit peace and quietnem in the room where he is evident- ly about to die; and where we found four or five convalescent Laserr policemen, haringpital ship. little amusing conversation with the nativo

We regret Mr Martin's annoyance at the term "ranger" used in connection with his nano; but were not aware that it implied any thing offensive.

The objections to this claim ware Is That the land had been remenu- ed and taxed on the fameasurement, ia place of, as in the landa sald by Captain Elliot, on the original euroment at the time the land was granted in 1841. 2nd. That it had been taxed at an incorreol verege, inasmuch so that the largest lot on the Irland, which had born coklat Captain Elliot'a sale in Jana 1841, had not been included in com puting that average.""

Mr Seou has expended so much time in consideration of the hand question that it will naturally be imagined his objections are founded From the on data which cannot be repudiated. following detail our readers will judge for them- selves how far that gentleman is in the right.

It is very geotally adiicted that of sli the modes of taxation for support of Government, the miting of a revenue from land, is to all parties, A fatle time after by far the most equitable the land sale of 1841, Her Majesty's loyal sub- jects, holding Marine Lts, were diminetly ward. | #guins encroaching on the Crown's royskies (the manam | space between high and low water mark.)

Bolice has never been regarded. Every holder of seaboard propeny (there is not one exception) has carried out his Sea wall se far as he can possibly go Mr Scott has extended his property at least a hundred feet from the original high water mark.

expect to see the writ of Certiorari ever se out in this Colony; and the Record Book for misch purpose will therefore never be called into requisition. If, however, our Gover- nor, as is duty bound, will take the trouble to look over the book at least once a week, one or the other of our worthy and worshipful Magis trates will be prevented from opening an in- vestigation on one subject, and cominitting the party charged on another; that charge having boon already previously disposed of.
