SIGNAL STATION,

VICTORIA PEAK, HONG

1823 feet above Sea level.

KONG,

The Union Jack will be hoisted at the Mast Head when any vessel is being signalied.

The Commercial Code of Signals for all Nations will be used at the Station.

All Signals made by Vessels in the Offing will be repeated.

When Signalling to Men-of-War in the Harbour or in the Offing, a White Ensign will be hoisted at the Flagstaff, and at the Mast Head of the Man-of-War.

Distance Signals will be made at the Mast Head, and will be kept flying for ten minutes. Compass Signals will be shown at the Yard.

　　When a Steamer, or the smoke of a Steamer is sighted, the Compass Bearings, and Distance off will be hoisted. If, when the Vessel is made out, she is not a Mail Steamer, the Vessel's Distinguishing Flag will be substituted for the Compass Signal, and it will be kept flying until the Ship anchors.

　　If the Steamer is a regular Mail Steamer, a Gun will be fired and a Ball over the English, French, or American Ensign, with the Distance off at that time, will be shown at the Maat Head. The Compass Signal and Symbol will be hauled down. The Mail Signal will be kept up until the Vessel anchors.

　　River Steamers will not be signalled. The approach of other Steamers from Macao or Canton will be made known by showing the National or House Flag and Symbol at Yard Arm.

　　If a Flag showing that an Officer of bign rank is on board an incoming Vessel, a similar Flag will be shown above the Ball, or the Flag alone will be hoisted at the Mast Head.

　　The approach of Men-of-War and Sailing Vessels will be notified by their proper Symbols and National Colours, or House Flags, at the Quarter of the Yard or at the Yard Arm,

Note. The Distances of Vessels will be estimated from the Peak and will be made by means of the Numerals which are attached to the Flags at foot of this page.

THE CALENDAR FOR 18 79.

Adjustment of the Calendar.

　　　Julius Cæsar was the first to attempt to adjust the length of the year with any degree of accuracy, and fixed it at 365 days 6 hours; introducing a day every fourth year (called leap year), which accordingly consists of 366 days, while the three others have only 365 days each.

　　　　From him it was called the Julian Year, and it continued in general use till the year 1582, when Pope Gregory XIII. undertook to rectify the error which then existed between the Julian year of 365 days and the solar year of 365-2422013 days. At that time the difference amounted to ten days; he accordingly commanded the ten days between the 4th and 15th October in that year to be struck out, so that the 5th day was called the 15th. This alteration has been introduced throughout Europe, except in Russia and by the Greek Church, and the year was afterwards called the Gregorian Year, or New Style.

　　　　In England the method of reckoning after the New Style was not admitted into the Calendar till the year 1722, when the error amounted to nearly eleven days, which were taken from the month of September, by calling the 3rd of that month the 14th, and it was settled by Act of Parliament (24 Geo. II., 1751), that the years 1800, 1900, 2100, 2200, 2300, and every hundredth year of our Lord, which shall happen in time to come, shall be computed as each consisting of 365 days only, excepting every fourth hundredth year, whereof the year 2000 should be the first.

　　　　By the same Act of Parliament the Legal beginning of the year was changed from the 25th of March to the 1st of January, so that the succeeding months of January, February, and March, up to the 24th day, which by the Old Style would have been reckoned part of the year 1762, were accounted as the three first months of 1763, which is the reason we sometimes meet with such a date as :-

March 10th, 1774-75.

That is, according to the Old Style it is 1774, according to the New 1775.

　　　　The Solar Cycle, or Cycle of the Sun, is a period of 28 years, after which all the Dominical Letters return in the same order as they did during the 28 years before. The first year of the Christian Era is the tenth of this Cycle.

The Lunar Cycle, or Cycle of the Moon, commonly called the Golden number, and sometimes the Metonic Cycle (from Meton, an Athenian philosopher, who invented it about 432 years before the birth of Christ), is a revolution of 19 years, in which time the conjunctions, oppositions, and other aspects of the Moon are within an hour and a half of being the same as they were on the same days of the months 19 years before. The Prime, or Golden number, is the number of years elapsed in this Cycle. Before the birth of Christ two years of this Cycle had elapsed.

　　　　The Roman indiction is a period of 15 years, and used by the Romans for the time of taxing their provinces. Three years of one of these Cycles had elapsed before the birth of Christ.

The Julian period contains 7980 years, and arises from multiplying together 28 19, and 15, being the Cycles of the Sun, Moon, and Indiction. This was contrived by Joseph Juste Scaliger, in 1583, for Chronological purposes, and is assumed as a fied Era in calculations by all Astronomers and Chronologers throughout the Christian world. Its beginning is placed 710 years before the usual date of the creation of the world, or 4714 before the commencement of the Christian Era.

JEWISH.

The festivals of the Jews are held weekly, monthly, and yearly. Each seventh and fiftieth year, moreover, is kept with peculiar solemnities.

The weekly festival is the Sabbath, a day consecrated to rest and cheerful devo- tion. It was instituted when God rested, on the seventh day, from the work of creation, and the precept was renewed to the Hebrews in the wilderness of Sin (Ex. Chap. 16), ere yet the Decalogue had been given from Sinai. It is kept from sunset on Friday to sunset on Saturday.

JEWISH FESTIVALS, Fasts, and OBSERVANCES.

　The monthly festival is held on the day of the new moon, or the first day of every month, which is proclaimed by sound of trumpet; the law, however, did not oblige the people to rest on these days, though it appointed particular sacrifices.

　The Feast of the Passover, of Pentecost, and of Tabernacles, were the three principal festivals observed under the law, and they were times of real joy and festivity. As all the male inhabitants throughout the country were required on these occasions to go up to Jerusalem, and the females also permitted to accompany them if they chose, the concourse was generally very great. These religious assemblies, besides commemorating important events in their history, also subserved other important purposes. They kept them steadfast to their religion, by the views of ceremonies and the majesty of the divine service; they afforded the means of religious instruction, for the law of God was then read and explained; and they served, moreover, to renew the acquaintance and friendship of tribes and families, who from all parts of the country thus met three times in the year in the holy city.

It

　The PASSOVER is instituted to commemorate the departure out of Egypt, because on the night prece ling that departure the destroying angel who slew the first-born of the Egyptians passed over the houses of the Hebrews, they being marked with the blood of the lamb, which for this reason was called the Paschal Lamb. was celebrated on the fourteenth day of the first month of the ecclesiastical year. It falls on the 8th of April and finishes on the 16th of April, and lasts seven days. A lamb, or, a kid, without blemish, was killed, roasted, and eaten with unleavened bread and bitter herbs. The first Pas over was eaten with their loins girded, their shoes on their feet, and their staves in their hands, that they might be in readiness for their journey, circumstances which were not observed in its celebration after the Exodus.

　The Feast of PENTECOST, or WEEKS, is celebrated on the fiftieth day after the Passover, and is a feast of thanksgiving to the Lord, wherein they acknowledge his dominion over their country and their labours, by offering to him two loaves as the first fruits of all their harvest. It also commemorates the giving of the law from Mount Sinai, their d'parture from Egypt. The Hebrews counted seven weeks from the Passover, beginning on the second day of that sol mnity, and hence calle ! it the Feast of Weeks; but by the Christians it is called Pentecost, a name which signifies the Fiftieth Day. It was on the day of Pentecost that the Holy Spirit was poured out from the ascended Saviour upon his Apostles, qualifying th m with miraculous gifts for establishing t e New Testam nt kingdom.

　The Feast of TABERNACLES was instituted as a memorial of their fathers having dwelt in tents for forty years, during the passage through the wilderne s.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　It is kept in the first month of the civil year, falls on the 2ui of October and finishes on the 11th of October, and lasts eight days, the first and eighth being the most solemn. In former times during its continuance they lived in booths, tents, or arbours, constructed of the branches and leaves of trees.

These were the three Great Festivals at which all the males were required to go up to Jerusalem to worship. "Three times in a year shall all thy males appear before the Lord thy God, in the place which he shall choose, in the Feast of Unleavened Bread, and in the Feast of Weeks, and in the Feast of Tabernacles."-Dent. xvI., 16; Ex. xxxv., 23.

The Feast of TRUMPETS is celebrated on the first day of their civil year (Oct.), its commencement being proclaimed by sound of trumpet, and the day is kept solemn, all business being forbidden and certain sacrifices appointed to be offered.

There are also two other feasts, though not appointed by law, which require notice, as they are often men ion d in Jewish history. The feast of D.DICATION was appointed to celebrate the re-establishment of Divine worship in Jerusalem, after Antiochus Epiphans ha i ben vanquished and the te upla purified. It is observed for eight days, from the 25th of the third month (December), and is also called the Feast of Lights, from the illuminations which the Jews mak during these days in taeir houses. Poorim falls on the 14th and 15th of the sixth month (March), and commemo- rates the defeat of Hama. On these days they give alms to the poor and presents to their friends on account of the lives of all toe Jews having been saved by Esther,

probably meant by "Feast of Esther," which is on the 13th of the 6th month (civil year)-March.

The 10th of the first month of the civil year is the day of ATONEMENT, on which they observe a fast from 6 P.M. cf the 9th to 7 P.M. of the 10th, and ask for- giveness for their sins. Other fasis were also instituted in later times, coun cted with the siege of Jerusalem (10th of tenth month), the capture of the city (17th of the fourth month), the burning of the temple (9th of the fifth month), and the death of Gedaliah (3rd of the first month) of the civil year.

　　　Every sev nth year is to the Jews a Sabbatical year; and we find that Alexander the Great granted them au exemption from tribute on that year.

After seven weeks or Sabbath of years, that is, after seven times seven years, the great Festival of the JUBILEE was celebrated; and during the whole year they neither sowe nor reaped. On this firtieth year every one resumed possession of his iu- heritance, whether it were sold, mortgaged, or alienated in any way, and Hebrew slaves of every description were set free, with their wives and children. Houses and edifices in walled towna were the only kind of property that did not return to the original owner in the year of the Jubilee.

MAHOMEDAN.

RAMAZAN.-The Mahomedan fast commences each day throughout the month of this name, when the first streak of light borders the eastern horizon, and continues until the stars are clearly discerned in the heavens. During the whole period not the slightest particle of food, not one single drop of water nor any other liquid, or smoke ever passes the lips from the dawn till the appearance of the stars in the evening. Each day during the fast is passed in occasional prayer, bosides the usual nimaz, and in realing the Koran or lives of the prophets. The fast is broken by dates, in remem- brance of the Prophet's family, whose great luxury was supposed to be the date of Arabia, and some cooling draught is added if required. The conclusion of the month Ramazan is celebrated as an Eed festival and is hailel with great rejoicing and merriment. In every house the same dainties are provided, every amusement that can be thought of, is indulged in. In some houses the natch women are in the apartments of the gentlemen and the "domni" in those of the women.

　　　EED KORBAN.-In commemoration of Abraham offering up Ishmael; and this is the day on which they annually perform the Haj at Mecca. The followers of Mahomed claim to be de-cendants of Abraham through his son Ishmael, who, they aver, was ch sen as the offering to the Almighty, and not Isaac, thus differing from the Jews and Christians, grounding their assertions on traditions which they deem conclusive evidence on the subj ct, in opposition to the authority of the Bible. The offering thus made is annually commemorated by the sacrifice of animals, such as camels, sheep, goats or lambs, according to each person's means, which answer the pu poso of honouring the memory of Abraham and Ishmael. The followers of Mihomed beli ve that the entrance to Pa adise is guarded by a bridge as narrow as a scythe, or some such equally sharp instrum nt, affording a precarious and unstable tooting. To enable thein, ther for, to pass without danger, they beli ve that the animals they bave sacrificed at the feast of Eed will be present to lend their aid to help them over in safety.

MOHARRAM. A celebrated mourning festival bell annually in remembrance of the frst martyrs of Mussalmans-Hassain and Hossein-the two sons of Fatima and Ali, from whom the whole race of Syads have descend d. Has ain was pois, ned by an cossary of the usurping Kalipha, and Hossein, the last victim of the descendants of the prop:et's family, to Ki: g Yazid's (son of Maviab) fury, suffering a cruel death after the most severe trials on the plain of Kurbala, on the tenth day of the Arabian month of Moharram, the anniversary of which catastrophe is solemnised with the most devoted zeal. Hussain and Hossein were, as above stated, the two sons of Ali, by his cousin

MAHOMEDAN FESTIVALS, FASTS, AND OBSERVANCES.

Fatima, the daughter of Mahomed, and after the murder of their father by the con- trivances of the then ruling Kalipha, they with their families removed from Shawn, the capital, to Medina. After residing there for several years, the people of Shawn, being tired of King Yazid's tyrannical rule, invited Hossein to return to the capital, and assume his lawful right as Iman (leader of the faithful). Before accepting this invitation, Hossein sent Moslem, his cousin, as a messenger to report the true state of affairs to him; but on his arrival with his two sous at Shawn, he was seized by order of King Yazid, and cast from a precipice, and his two sons were barbarously murdered, for the sake of the reward offered for their heads. This forms the subject of the ten days' bewailing during the Mohairam. The Mahomedans are divided into distinct sects, called the Sunis and the Shias. The former regard Ali and his descendants as the lawful leaders after Mahomed, and the latter Ali and his descendants as fourth Kaliph or after the Kaliphah of Abubakr, Oomer, and Oosman, who died in the life time of Ali, and as the Shias are cursin; Abubakr, Oomer, and Oosman, the Kaliphas, as Abubakr, Omar, &c., bence quarrels, animosities, and dislikes are hoarded up to be avenged when opportunity offers. The festival begins on the first day of the moon (Moharran). Tazias (a term signifying gri f, and applied to a representation of the mausoleum erected over the remains of Iman Hossein at Kurbala), made of ivory, ebony, sandalwood, cedar, and some wrought in silver filigree, and indeed of every variety of material, from pure silver to bamboo and paper, according to the rank and wealth of the party, are exhibited in every direction, and conveyed in procession through the streets. Mourning assemblies are held morning and evening in the Imanbares by Shias, during the Moharram, and the head priest or preacher recites a subject for each day's service from the various books composed on the subject descriptive of the lives and sufferings of Hassain and Hossein. The Marsiah, a poetical composition of great merit, and embracing the whole of the subject they commemorate, is chanted with great effect; the names of their lawful leaders are recounted with blessings, and that of the Kaliphas with curse. Then comes the proces-ion of Dhal Dual-Hossein's horse killed at Kurbala, beautifully caparisoned; and finally the Tazias are deposited with funeral rites in the public burial grounds, when the Moharram ceases. The Tabut is a slight framework of bamboo and tinsel. They vary consider- ably in size and appearance, according to the taste and ability of those who build them. Before these Tabuts incense is burned and various other rites are performed. The Tabuts, it is said, are peculiar to India. They are not mentioned in the Koran, nor are they built by the inhabitants of Persia and Arabia. Many Mahomedans regard them with strong disapprobation, both Shias and Sunis. In Bombay a portion of the Mahomedans and Hindoos unite in building the Tabuts. These are taken out, and, accompanied with music, carried in procession through the Bhendy Bazaar, from midnight of the ninth until three o'clock of the morning of the tenth day, and from twelve to six o'clock on the afternoon of the same day, on their way to the beach in Back Bay, where the greater part of the Tabuts, after being stripped of whatever is of value, are cast into the sea. The practice of building Tabuts seems to be losing ground in Bombay, a portion of those who formerly united in this having adopted the views of those opposed to such things. Mahomedans, especially Suuis of India, who do not unite in building the Tabuts, are accustomed to go on this occasion to the mosques for ten successive nights to listen to the account of the death of Hossein. Their demonstrations of grief, however, are not equal to those of the Moguls and Persians (because Mahomedans are forbidden to weep aloud), who while listening to the recital, weep aloud, and smite violently upon their breasts. In Bombay there is strictly speaking no representation of the battle which was fought previous to the death of Hossein. Some two or three horsemen bearing flags enter the large yard adjoining the Imanbares with loud wailings, and are followed by two horses caparisoned to represent those which were for the use of the fallen Hossein. One person on horseback, with a long sword apparently run through the head and covered with blood, joins in the wailing. A female infant, in deep mourning, sitting at the door of a small mausoleum, which is carried on shoulders of men, constantly casts ashes

or cut-straw upon her head, in token of grief. These pass round in a circle, accom- panied or followed by a company on foot who beat upon their breasts, crying, "Hai Hossein! Hai Hossein!" Sometimes, a person represented in a dying state, his body covered with wounds and blood and darts and daggers run into it, is carried about in procession. It would seem that this festival is now celebrated with less effort and effect than formerly. It is entirely disapproved by the Suuis.

PARSEE.

Parsees originally came from Persia, where they were once the ruling nation. The Persian Empire was extended in their time from the Mediterranean to the Indus, from the Jaxartes to Arabia and the confines of Egypt. They had also extended their conquests into India. But after the overthrow of their last monarch, Yezdezerd III., by Caliph Omar, Persia became a prey to the Arabs and Turks, who exercised most tyrannical sway with the view of converting Parsees to the Moslem Faith. To escape religious persecution and oppression at the hands of their Mahomedan conquerors, a very large number of Parsees fled from their mother country, and about the eighth century took refuge at Sanjam, in Western India, where Hindoo idolatry and polytheism were prevalent. Parsees, however, clung to their own rites and ceremonies and preserved monotheism wherever they went and in whatever position their lot was cast. From Sanjam they dispersed themselves into small knots over the whole of Guzerat, and we find them occupying responsible positions under the sway of the Delbi Moguls, and also under the Portuguese Government at Bombay. They had been rendering material assistance, both pecuniary and mercantile, to the Honourable the East India Co. at Surat. Surat ba, however, to yield its commercial importance to Bombay, which being the principal seaport of Western India, afforded peculiar advantages for the development of commerce, in which the Parsees have taken the leading part. To the shores of China they were the first to migrate in 1756, and for more than a hundred years Parsee firms have been carrying on a thriving trade in Canton, Macao, Hongkong, and Shanghai. With Bengal, Pegu, Rangoon, Madras, and the Malabar coast they also began to trade in rice, timber, &c. at an early date. Under the fostering care of the British they soon extended their trade with England in cotton, piec" goods, and other staples. The particular characteristics of the community are, devout loyalty, love of truth and constitutional justice, libe- rality, and mercantile enterprise. These have led to their rapid development from a state of obscurity and poverty into opulence and social and political importance. The liberality of the Parsees is proverbial. From the rear 1803 we find them contributing to subscriptions raised in England; as in the memorial fund of William Pitt, the testimonial to Dr. Jenner, the well known discoverer and propagator of vaccination, the London Patriotic Fund of 1804, the Marquis of Cornwallis Memorial Fund of 1806, and the London Hospital Fund of 1808, and several others, without needlessly entering into a description of the way in which they have always stood forward during the last fifty years in the cause of suffering humanity.

"

The Parsees of India are divided into two sects-the "Shanshahis" or "Rasmis,' and the "Kudmis" or "Churigars," the former of whom consitute the larger portion of the race.

　　　　　　　This division originated only about a hundred and fifty years ago, when a learned Persian priest, named Jamasp, arrrived in India, and found that his co-religionists differed from their brethren of Iran in their calculation of time by a full month, and in other minor points relating to their "Liturgy." Serious disputes arose in consequence, which ended in the formation of the two sects, the Shansbabis adhering to their own views, and the Kudmis adopting the opinions imported by Jamasp-thus agreeing with their Persian brethren. Notwithstanding this division, no estrangement exists between them in their social intercourse. The difference lies only in their computation of time, and in some slight variations in their form of prayer. Intermarriage is allowed, as well as admission to each other's places of worship.

The festivals of the Parsees are celebrated with little or no outward pomp. Their holidays are mostly occupied in prayers in the morning, and festivities and rejoicings

during the rest of the day. Some of their religious institutions are traced to a very ancient period. The festival of the Nowroz dates from upwards of three thousand years before Christ, and is kept to this day by most of the nations of Western Asia, notwithstanding the difference of creed. The Emperor Akbar adopted the "Newroz" and fourteen other festivals of the Parsees, for the observance of those who were attached to his favourite doctrines of the "Ilahi faith," or the "Religion of God," which he fruitlessly endeavoured to introduce among the people.

　PAPETI, OR NEW YEAR'S DAY.-Among the festivals observed by the Parsees, the first and most universally kept is the Papeti, or new year's day. On this day the Parsees rise early, and dress themselves in new suits of clothes, and those piously disposed Bay their

　　　prayers in their private residences, or visit their friends and relatives, when the "

　　Hama-jor" or joining of hauds is performed; this ceremony is a sort of greeting corresponding to the European fashion of wishing each other a happy new year. Their friends and relations are invited to breakfast. The morning thus occupied, they spend the rest of the day in their country houses or clubs, where feasting and rejoicings are kept up till a late hour. Alms are also given to the poor in the course of the day, and new suits of clothes are presented to servants and dependeuts.

The ancient Persians reckoned a new era from the accession of cach successive monarch, and as Yezlezerd, of the Sassanian dynasty, was their last King, when dethroned by Caliph Omar about A.D. 640, the date of his accession to the throne has been brought down to the present time, thus making t: eir current year 1248-49.

　In their calculation of the year only 365 days are allowed; leap year is unknown to them, though there are records which prove that in every 120 years one month was added to make it correspond with the solar year.

　The year is divided into twelve months, of 30 days each, and five days, or "Gathas" as these are named, added at the end to make up the deficiency. These five Gatha days are held as the most sacred in the year, and those piously disposed spend them solely in prayers.

　KHURDAD-SAL.-The second of the Parsee festivals is the "Khurdad-Sal" day, or the anniversary of the birth of their prophet Zoroaster, who they say was born in the city of Reh, in the North of Persia, in the reign of Darius Hystapis, about 520 years before Christ. Heeren places the birth of this celebrated personage about 1,200 years anterior to this. Parsees themselves differ as to the exact time of the birth of their prophet: a part of them fix the period at B.C. 389, others at B.C. 538. Religious ceremonies are performed in the morning by the women of the family and the priests;: the men, as usual on such occasions, limiting themselves to private prayers.

　AMURDAD-SAL.-This holiday, which falls on the day immediately after the preceding festival, appears to have no origin in the books of the Parsees. It is merely kept up as the continuation of the "Kburdad Sal;" no religious ceremonies are required, and the day is always spent in the enjoyment of pleasures.

　FARUHARDIN JABAN.-This day is set apart for the performance of ceremonies, for the dead, "Faruhar" meaning soul or spirit. The religious portion of the people attend on the hills at Chaopatty (Bombay), where their "dockmas," or "towers of silence" are situated, and there perform prayers for the dead, in commemoration of their memory. The Parsees are enjoined by their religion to preserve the memory of their dead by annual religious ceremonies performed in the house; but such of their friends as die on long voyages or in unknown places, and the date of whose death cannot be positively ascertained, are, according to the terms of their religion, honoured by sacred rites on this day. The ceremony consists in a man or woman preparing small round pieces of baked bread, called darans, which are put on a tray or other copper vessel, along with the fruits and flowers, over which the priest per- forms the prayers of the Baj, or "Vaj," as it is called by M. Anquetil du Perron in his "Zend Avesta." According to the translation published by this learned Frenchman, the Baj is an invocation of the names of the departed, and of such of the angels as have a direct control over the souls of the dead after their departure from this world. Prayers of this sort are still performed among the Hindus and the Mahomedans, and are not unknown in the Roman Catholic countries of Europe.

　　　ARDIBEHEST-JASAN.-This festival, as its name implies, is maintained in honour of Ardibehest Amsbaspond, the angel controlling the sacred fire, that element being one of the wonders of divine creation. The fire-temples are crowded on this day, sandalwood is offere? to the sacred flame, and prayers offered to the Supreme Deity.

THE NOWROZ.-The fifth on the list is the celebrated Nowroz, alled by some the Nowroz-í-Jamshid or the Nowroz-í-Sultan, the King's day. This celebrated festival falls generally about the 21st day of March, and corresponds with our Vernal Equinox. This day is observed by the modern Persians, the Arabs, the Turks, and several other Asiatic nations for the computation of the solar year, and for State purposes, such as the collection of revenue, and the arrangements for the agricultural operations of the year. Eastern writers date the origin of this festival from the time of Jamshid, the third King of the Peshdadian dynasty of Persia. Jamshid is supposed by Bailly to have flourished 3,209 years before Christ: the Shah Namah celebrates him as the first King of his race who introduced civilisation among mankind, and established the computation of time. If we are to believe the Persian writers, the exquisite bas-reliefs among the ruins of Persepolis-still visible in beauty after a lapse of two thousand years-are representations of the Court of Jamshid, more especially on the festival of the Nowroz. The sculptures at this place contain representations of the Courts of ancient Persia, with the long train of attendants bringing offerings to the feet of Monarchs; and as the Nowroz is a sort of "revenue settlement" day, when the chiefs of different provinces lay their annual contributions before the throne, and are allowed audience with the monarch, the idea of a part of the Persepolitan bas-reliefs being a picture of some ancient King of Persia holding his Court on the day of the Nowroz does not appear to be without foundation. In Persia this festival is kept for several days with unusual ponp by all the inhabitants, whether Mahomedans or Parsees. In India it is simply a day of rejoicin".

　　　AVA-ARDUI SUR JASAN.-Ava, in the Zend text, is the name of the angel who presides over the sea, and this "Jasan," or festival, is held in his honour. The Parses are required on this day to approach the sea shore, or any stream of water, and chant the Zend prayers, but owing to their long residence in India they have borrowed many Hindu rites in the observance of this holiday, and offerings of sugar, cocoanuts, flowers, &c., to the sea, are not uncommon. The better-informed portion of the community, however, do not join with their brethren in these superstitious. acts. In Bombay a fair is held on the Esplanade in honour of this festival.

　　　ADAR JASAN.-Adar, another synonym for fire, is the name by which the ninth month of the Parsee year is called. This is the most sacred of the twelve months, and the ninth day of that month is held in great respect and sanctity. On this day the fire temples are very much crowded, and offerings of sandalwood are made to the sacred flame, and money distributed among the priests.

Besides the above, the festivals of the Parsees are the Meher Jasan, the Bahman Jasan, and a few others of less importance, all of which are partially observed.

SIAMESE MODE OF DIVIDING TIME.

The 24 hours of each day are divided into two equal parts. The day time is called Wan; the night time K'u'n. The former uniformly begins at 6 o'clock a.m.; the latter at 6 p.m. The hours of the forenoon are numbered 1, 2, 3, &c., up to 6, or mid-day. The hours of the afternoon are designated by the same numbers. The hours of the night are counted in succession from 1 to 12. Each night is divided into four watches of three hours each, and each watch is called a Yam.

Siamese months are designed to be lunar months; but they often vary from the moon by a day or more. Each month is divided into two parts, viz: Kang K'un (waxing), and Kang-Raam (waning). The former has always 15 days; but the latter has 15 days every 2nd, 4th, 6th, 8th, 10th, and 12th month; and 14 days every 1st, 3rd, 5th, 7th, 9th, and 11th month. Hence six of their months have 36 days, and six 29 days-354 to 12 months, which wants about 11 days to make up a full solar year. To compensate for this, they have an intercalary month of 30 days,

once in two or three years. The years 1853, 1855, 1858, and 1861, were leap-years. By this plan there is still a loss of about three days in 19 years, which is supplied by adding a day to their 7th month from time to time, as their Brahmin astrologers see to be necessary.

　60 Winat'ees make 1 Nat'ee or minute; 6 Nat'ees, 1 Bat; 10 Bāts, 1 Mong or Toom (hour); 12 Mongs, 1 Wan (day); 12 Tōōms, 1 K'u'n (night); 29 or 30 Wans & K'u'ns, 1 Du'an (month); 12 or 13 Du'ans, 1 Pee (year); and 10 Pees, 1 Sök, or cycle of ten.

They have no word to denote a week of time. But each day of the seven has its appropriate name and number. Sunday is their first and Saturday their seventh day. The days of the week are:-1st. Wan At'ït (day of the Sun) Šunday; 2nd. Wan Chan (day of the Moon) Monday; 3rd. Wan Angk'an (day of Mars) Tuesday; 4th. Wan P'oot (day of Mercury) Wednesday; 5th. Wan Prahat (day of Jupiter) Thurs- day; 6th. Wan Sōōk (day of Venus) Friday; 7th. Wan Sow (day of Saturn) Saturday. Their twelve months are each designated by its appropriate number, excepting the first and second. The former, instead of being called the first month, is called Dúan ái (month ái), the latter, Dúan Yoè (month Yeè). The next succeeding month is called Dúan Sám (third month); the next, Dúan Sĕě, (fourth month); and so on through the twelve.

The Siamese have two cycles, one within the other. The greater is twelve years, the smaller ten. The name of the former is Pee, the latter Sok. Every year of each kind of cycle has its own specific name. The years of the cycle of 12 are:-1st. Pee Ch'òdat, year of the Rat; 2nd. Pee Ch'alòò, of the Cow; 3rd. Pee K'án, of the Tiger; 4th. Pee T'aw, of the Rabbit; 5th. Pee Marong, of the Great Dragon; 6th. Pee Masèng, of the Small Dragon; 7th. Pee Mameea, of the Horse; 8th. Pee Mamaa, of the Goat; 9th. Pee Wawk, of the Monkey; 10th. Pee Raka, of the Cock; 11th. Pee Chaw, of the Dog; 12th. Pee Kõon, of the Hog.

let

The years of the cycle of 10 are:-Eka sök, 1st of the cycle; T'o sok, 2nd; To sōk, 3rd; Treenì sõk, 4th; Benya sök, 5th; Ch'áw sok, 6th; Sapp'á sōk, 7th; Aatt'a sök, 8th; Nõpp'a sök, 9th; Samrett'i sōk, 10th of the cycle.

In writing the number of their Era, the name of each cycle, as it chances to be, is always given in the same connection. Every Siamese is taught to remember carefully the name of each year of the cycle of 12, and by no means to forget the name of the particular year, moon, day of the moon, and day of the week in which he was born. So that at any time, when he would count up the number of the years he has lived, he begins by repeating the names of the years in succession from the one that gave him birth, until he comes back again to his birth-year, keeping tally with his fingers. Thus he counts on until he makes another cycle of twelve, more or less, as the case may be in regard to his age. He can tell quite certainly whether his age is within the first cycle of 12, or the second, third, or fourth; but if he be upwards of 60 years old, he is liable to get bewildered in bis reckoning, through the want of the habit of counting his years by the year of the Era in which he was born. This the Siamese never do.

The Siamese sacred Era is reckoned from the time it is supposed Buddha died, which was 2,400 years at the full moon in May, 1866. This reckoning is never used except in their religious matters. It is denominated Pööta Sakkárát (Era of Buddha). Their civil Era, called Chōōlá Sakkárát (little Era) is reckoned from the time when Pra Rooang, a Siamese king of great celebrity, established it, and that was 1,227 full years in March, 1866. Siamese in writing their dates always show first the year of their Era; second, the day of the week; third, the day of the waxing or waning moon; fourth, the number of the month; fifth, the names of the year; and, sixth the particular year of the cycle of 10. Their mode of showing the day of week, day of moon, and month is very concise.

HONGKONG.

This, the most eastern of British possessions, is situate off the coast of the Kwangtung province, at the mouth of the Canton river. It is distant about 40 miles from Macao and 90 from Canton, and lies between 22 deg. 9 min. and 22 deg. 1 min, N. lat., and 114 deg. 5 min. and 114 deg. 18 min. E. long. The name of the island (Heung Kong) signifies Good Harbour. Hongkong is a Crown Colony and was ceded to Great Britain by the Chinese Government in 1841. The Government is admi. nistered by a Governor, aided by an Executive Council of five officials. The Legislative Council is presided over by the Governor, and is composed of the Chief Justice, the Colonial Secretary, the Attorney-General, the Treasurer, and four unofficial members nominated by the Crown on the recommendation of the Governor, The island is about 11 miles long and from 2 to 5 b: oad; its circumference is about 27 miles. It consists of a broken ridge of lofty hills, with few valleys of any extent and scarcely any ground available for cultivation. It is well watered by numerous streams, many of which are perennial, and from the waterworks at Pok- folum water of excellent quality is supplied to all parts of the city of Victoria.

　　　The harbour of Hongkong is one of the finest and most beautiful in the world, baving an area of ten square miles, and is always crowded with shipping, presenting an animated and imposing spectacle. It consists of the sheet of water between the island and the main an, and is enclosed on all sides by lofty hills, unfor- tunately bare of foliage, exc pt where trees have been planted near the city, but pleasingly green during the south-west monsoon. The City of Victoria is magnifi cently situated, the houses, many of them large and handsome, rising tier upon tier, from the water's edge to a height of several hundred feet on the face of the Peak, while some bungalows are visible on the very summit of the hills. Seen from the water at night, when lamps twinkle among the trees and houses, the city, spreading along the shore for upwards of four miles, affords a sight not to be forgotten.

　　　Nor on landing are the favourable impressions of the stranger dissipated. The city is well built, the roads and streets are for the most part admirably made and kept, the Public Gardens almost univalled for their beauty, and many of the thoroughfares delightfully shaded with well grown trees. The chief public building is the City Hall, erected in 1866-9 by subscrip'ion; it contains an elegant theatre, numerous large rooms used for balls and public n eetings, an excellent and valuable Library, and a Museum yearly increasing in importance. The Government Offices, Supreme Court House, and Club are plain Lut substantial structures. Government House is admirably situated, in |icturesque grounds pleasingly laid out, in the centre of the city. The Gaol is a large and substantial structure, but the accommodation afforded by it is not in excess of the large demands made on it, owing to the inroa is of the criminal population of Kwangtung being so constant and persevering. The Civil Hospital is located in temporary and very ina lequate buildings, wholly unfitted for the purpose. The Government Central School, a most important institution, having some six hundred pupils, is also very badly housed at present. The Tung Wa Hospital, a Chinese nstitution, occupies a large and roomy building. The barracks for the garrison are large, and constructed with great regard for the health and comfort of the troops, and the buildings belonging the Naval Establishment are

substantial and spacious. The Central Market is a dirty and inconvenient place, which is entirely given up to the natives owing to its repulsive condition. The Clock Tower, near Peddar's Wharf, was erected by public subscription in 1862, and the illuminated clock was presented to the Colony by the firm of Douglas: Lapraik & Co.

The chief religious buildings are: S. John's Cathedral (Anglican), which occupies a commanding site above the Parade Ground, and is a Gothic church of considerable size but with few pretensions to architecture. It has a square tower, with pinnacles, over the western porch, and possesses a peal of bells. S. Peter's (Seam n's) Church, at West Point, close to the Sailors' Home, is a neat Gothic erection with a spire. S. Stephen's (native) Church, in Taipingshan, is a plain building with a bell turr.t. Union Church is a pleasing edifice in the Italian style of architecture, with a spire, and contains accommodation for about 500 persons. The Roman Catholic Cathedral, in Wellington Street, is a remarkably plain but commodious structure with small twin domes. S. Joseph's Church, in Garden Road, is a neat edifice erected in 1876 on the site of one destroyed by the great typhoon of 1874; and there are several smaller mission churches. There is also a Jewish Synagogue in Hollywool Road, and a Mahomelan Mo-que in Mosque Street. The Roman Catholics possess a Reformatory for Chinese boys and several charitable and education l institutions, which are very efficiently managed. Other denominations likewise support several establishments of the same character, conspicuous among which are the Diocesan Home and Orphanage, the German Foundling House, Baxter Vernacular Schools, &c. The Anglican, Roman Catholic, Parsee, and Mahomedan Cemeteries occupy sits in Wong-nai Chung Valley, and are kept in good or ler. The Anglican cemetery is almost a rival to the Public Gardens, being admirably laid out and charmingly situated.

There are several Clubs in the Colony. The principal are the Hongkong Club, the Club Germania, and the Lusitano Club. The two latter have theatres attached to the Club-houses, in which amateur performances are occasionally given. There is a Recreation Club, which possesses Bath and Boat houses on the Praya near the Cricket Ground, a Cricket Club. and a Yacht Club, all kept up with much spirit.

The annual races are held at the litter end of February on the Race Course in Wong-nai Chung Valley, at the east end of the town, a beautiful spot enclosed by fir-crowned hills. On this occasion the whole colony makes holiday, and the stands and course are crowded with one of the most motley collections of humanity to be seen in any part of the world. Most of the races are run with North China ponies, but recently some Australian horses have ben introduced, and there is generally good sport. A regatta is held in December in the harbour, but it does not evoke the same enthusiasm as the races. Athletic Sports are also got up every year by the garrison, and occasional swimming matches and boat races take place. There is an Amateur Dramatic Club, the members of which give several performances in the City Hall Theatre during the season; and the Choral Society provides a series of Amateur Concerts in St. Andrew's Hall. The Regimental Band has now for some time given promenade after-dinner concerts in the Public Gardens about every fortnight during the summer, on which occasions the Gardens are illuminated with Chinese lanterns. In addition to the attempts made by the colonists to provide amusemen's, itinerart companies frequently visit Hongkong, and give a series of performances.

There is excellent Dock accommodation for the largest vessels. The Hongkong and Whampoa Dock Company, Limited, have two extensive establishments, one at Kowloon, the other at Ab rdeen. The Docks of this company are fitted with all appliances for engineering and carpenter's work, and a e sellom empty. The Cosmopolitan Dock is also a capacious dock 560 feet long, and is situated at Sam- shui Pò, in British Kowl on. There are two patent slips, and other smaller establishments at which ship-building is carried on, and some good sized steamers have been launched in the Colony. Her Majesty's Naval Yard also contains machine

s heds and fitting shops on a large scale, and repairs can be effected to the machinery

of the British men-of-war with great expedition.

　　　There are several good hotels in the Colony. The leading establishments are the Hongkong Hotel, close to the Clock Tower; Hotel de l'Univers, in Wyndham Street; the Oriental, in Wellington Street; and the Stag, in Queen's Road, all of which are centrally situated and provide good accommodation for travellers.

　　　There are two daily papers published in English, the Hongkong Daily Press, which appears in the morning, and the China Mail, issued in the evening. There are also two fortnightly papers, which are published on the morning of the departure of the English mail, namely the China Overland Trade Report (the commercial journal of the Far East), and the Overland China Mail. The Hongkong Catholic Register is a religious paper published weekly. The Chronicle and Directory for China and Japan appars annually, and is issued from the Daily Press office. The China Review, which is devoted to reviews and papers on Chinese topics, is published once every two months, anl contains valuable articles. The native Press is represented by three daily papers-the Chung Ngoi San Po, which is the oldest, published at the Daily Press Offic; the Wa Taz Yat Po, or Chinese Mail; and the Teun Wan Yat Po, or Universal Circulating Herald. There is also a bi-weekly called Kan Sz Ping Luk. The Govern- ment Gazette is published once a week in both English and Chinese, by the Govern- ment printers, Messrs. Noronha & Sons.

　　　Manufacturs are represented by two large sugar refineries, the China and the Onental, a Distillery, ind some native factories. A nong the industries pursued by the Chinese are glass blowing, vermilion manufacture, tanning, dyeing; bean-curd, tooth-powder, cigar and tobacco making, &c.

There are several villages on the island, the largest of which is Shau-ki Wan, situate in a bay in the Li-ü Mun Pass, where there are some large works employed in producing Chinese iron ware for export. Aberdeen, on the south of the island, possesses a well sheltered little harbour, much frequented by fishing craft. Two large docks of the Hon kong and Whampa Dock Company are also situated thre, and add to the importance of the place. Pokfolum, on the road to Aberdeen, about four miles from Victoria, is a place of resort for European residents in the hot weather, and some elegant bungalows have been erected in pleasant and picturesque situations, commanding fin sea views and cool breezes. The sanatarium of the French Missions is located at Pokfolu n, and is a fine building with an elegant chapel attached. Stanley, situated in a small bay on the south-east of the island, was once the site of a military station, but the barracks were pulled down a few years back, and the village is stagnant. There are good carria re roads from Victoria bɔth to Aberdeen and Shau-ki Wan, and a bridle road to Sta ley.

and

　　　Across the harbour is the dop ́n lncy of British Kwlon. This peninsula wis eeded to Great Britain in 1861. It has an area of four square miles, and, though formerly a most arid and desolate strip of laud, has latterly made considerable pro- gress. Yau-ina Ti, the principal village, has largely increased in population, bids fair to become an important town. A number of European houses and a club have been erected and numerous ga dens laid out at Tsim-sha Tsui, which place is much resorted to by the British and foreign residents. Steam ferries ply regularly between this place, Yau-ma Ti, and Victoria.

　　　The total population of the Colony of Hongkong according to the cnsus of 1876, was 139,144, showing an increase of 17,159 since 1872, when the preceding census was taken. The European and Am rican community was larger by 247, but this increase was solely due to the immigration of Portuguese from Macao. Nearly every other nationality showed a considerable reduction, there being 86 British, 12 German, 12 American, and 10 Danish male adult residents fewer than in 1872. The total population of the city of Victoria was returned at 111,684; that of Kowloon at 7,704; of Shau-ki Wan 3,011; of Aberdeen 1,669; and Stanley 944. The rest of the population is distributed among the smaller villages and the boat population other than in Victoria harbour. The total British and foreign population numbers 7,525,

but the residents proper are returned at 2,767, the former figures including the naval and military establishments, police, shipping in harbour, and temporary residents. The Indians and others of mixed blood numbered 1,451. Since the → census of 1876 the Chinese population has considerably increased, and the population

　Hongkong formerly enjoyed a most unenviable notoriety for unhealthiness, and in years past the troops garrisoned here undoubtedly suffered severely. A great deal

• of the sickness in the early days of the Colony was caused by excavating a d other- wise disturbing the disintegrated granite of which the soil of the island mainly con- sists, and which appears to throw off malarious exhalations when upturned. At the present time, however, the Colony is one of the healthiest spots in the world in the same latitude, and when the ignorance of newcomers respecting the climate, the rashness and excesses of seamen, and the squalor and crowded condition of the Chinese quarter of the town are considered, the mortality is by no means excessive. The annual death rate per 1000 for the whole population in 1877 was 26.81, for the British and foreign population, 18.04, or deducting non-residents, 13.78. The annual average rainfall is 78.54 inches, while the average range of the thermometer is from 43 deg. to 89 deg.

The finances of the Colony have for several years gone on improving, and the estimated revenue for 1879 is close upon $1,000,000, while the expenditure is estimated at $932,286.

　Hongkong is a free port, and it is therefore impossible to give any return of its imports and exports. During the year 1877, 2,869 vessels of foreign build measuring 2,445,755 tons, were entered. Of this number of vessels 2,109, measuring 1,982,123 tons, or 73.5 per cent. of ships and 80.96 per cent. of the tonnage, were steamers. This proportion was divided amongst the different maritime nations as follows:-British, 1,789 v ssels and 1,616,276 tons, or 84.83 and 81.54 per cent. respectively; French, 88 vessels and 159,192 tons, or 4.17 and 8.03 per cent respec- tively; German, 84 vessels and 66,820 tons, or 3.98 and 3.37 per cent. respectively; Chinese, 80 vessels and 67,417 tons, or 3.79 and 3.40 per cent. respectively; Spanish, 41 vessels and 16,178 tons, or 1.94 and C.82 per cent. respectively; the remaining 27 vessels and 56,240 tons, or 1.29 and 2.84 per cent. resp ctively were American, Danish, and Dutch. Of the sailing vessels, 760 in number and of 463,632 tons capacity, 286, measuring 234,282 tons, or 37.63 per cent. of vessels and 50.53 per cent. of tonnag, were under the British flag. The total number of junks en'ered at the various ports of the Colony (exclusive of local trade) was 25,500, with a tonnag of 1,798,788.

The trade chiefly consists in opium, sugar, salt, flour, oil, cotton goods, earthen ware, amber, ivory, sandalwood, betel, vegetables, granite, &c., &c. The bulk of the European trade of China and Japan passes through this port.

Hongkong possesses unrivalled steam communication. The Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company and the Messageries Maritimes convey the Europeau mail weekly, the Pacific Mail Company and the Occidental and Oriental "Steamship Company maintain a fortnightly mail service with San Francisco, the Easteru and Australian Mail Steamship Company have a monthly service with the Australian Colonies, and the Australian Steam Navigation Company now run a regular line of steamers between Hongkong and the Australian ports. In addition to all these, several great lines of merchant steamers maintain regular communi- cation between London, Liverpool, and Hongkong, of which the Ocean Steam Ship Company and the Glen line are the most conspicuous. Between the ports on the east coast of China and Hongkong the steamers of Messrs. Douglas Lapraik & Co. ply regularly twice a week and there is constant steam communication with Hoihow, Manila, Saigon, Haiphong, Bangkok, &c. With Shanghai and the ports of Japan there is frequent communication in addition to the mail steamers which leave weekly. Between Hongkong, Macao, and Canton there is a daily steam service. The tele- graphic communication of the Colony extends to nearly every part of the world.

MACAO.

　　　Macao is situated in 22 deg. 11 min. 30 sec. N. lati ude, and 113 deg. 32 min. 30 sec. E. longitude, on a rocky peninsula, renowned, long before the Portugueso settled on it, for its safe harbour for junks and small vessels. The Portuguese, who had already settled on the island of Lampacao, and frequented for trading purposes Chin-chew, Lianpo, Tainao, and Sau-choan (St. John's island, where St. Francis Xavier died) first took up their residence at Macao in 1557. Soon after their arrival pirates and adventurers from the neighbouring islands continually molested them. The Chinese authorities were powerless to cope with these marauders, who went so far as to blockade the port of Canton. The Portuguese manned and armed a few vessels and succeded in raising the blockade of Canton and clearing the seas. The town of Macao soon afterwards began to rise, and during the eighteenth century trade flourished wonderfully, the difficulty of residence at Canton greatly contributing towards it. The East India Company and the Dutch Company had establishments there.

Historians are divided in opinion as to whether the possession of Macao by the Portuguese is due to Imperial bounty or to right of conquest. There can be no doubt, however, that it was held at a rental of 500 taels a year until Governor Ferreira do Amaral in 1848 refused to pay it any longer and forcibly drove out the Hoppo or Chinese Custom-house, and with it every vestige of Chinese authority. This bold stroke cost him his life in August, 1849, for he was waylaid and barbarously mur- dered near the Barrier of Porta do Cerco and his head was taken to Canton. On the Chinese troops at the Barrier showing fight and massing in great numbers, the Portuguese troops bravely a lvanced, took the fort of Passaleão, and drove the Chinese from their positions.

The settlement is separated from the large island of H-ang-shan by a wall diawn across the neck of land from shore to shore. Two principal range of bills, one running from south to north, the other from east to west, may be considered as forming an angle, the base of which leans upon the river or anchoring place. The public and private buildings, a cathedral, an i several churches, are raised on the declivities, skirts, and heights of hillocks. On the lofty mount eastward, called Charil, is a fort, enclosing the hermitage of Na. Sra. de Gua, and westward is Nillau, on the top of which stands the bermitage of Na. Sra. de Penha; entering a wide semi-circular bay, which faces the east, on the right hand stan is the fort San Francisco; and on the left, that of Na. Sra. de Bom Parto. Sen from the roads or from any of the forts crowning the several hillocks, Macao is extremely picturesque. The public and private buildings are gaily painted and the streets kept very clean.

　　　Since the cession of the island of Hongkong to the British, the trade of Macao has decreased cousid rably, and the coolie trade gave it an unenviable notoriety. This traffic, pregnant with abuses, was happily aboli-hed in 1874. Tea continues tɔ be an article of export, showing the value of from $700,000 to $800,000 a year. Essential oils are also exported to some extent. There is likewise some trade in opium.

　　　The terrific typhoon of the 23rd September, 1874, which swept across Hongkong and the Southern Coast of China with such force, laid a considerable part of Macas in ruins. During the full violence of the wind, and fearful rise of the tide, a fire took place which consumed the best houses in the parish of Santo Antonio. With its trade gone and consequent departure of many of its residents, the activity of the place is a thing of the past. Owing to its pleasant climate and the quietade prevailing night and day, it has become the refuge of invalids and hard toiling people from Hongkong and other neighbouring ports.

MACAO.

In the town there are several places of interest, apart from the Fantan or gam- bling saloons. The gardens and Grotto of Camoens, once the resort of the Portuguese Poet Camoens, are worth seeing, as also the noble façade of the ancient Jesuit church of Sm. Paulo, burnt in 1835. Pleasant excursions can be made to the Hot Springs of Yô-mak, about sixteen miles from Mac, easily reached in about three and a-half hours by steam launch. In winter snipere plentiful in the neighbouring paddy fields and afford good sport. The "Macao Hotel," situated on the Praia, is comfor- table and the prices are moderate.

The Hongkong, Canton, and Macao Steamboat Company runs a daily steamer (Sundays excepted) between Macao and Hongkong, leaving the former port at 8 o'clock a.m. and Hongkong at 2 p.m. To Canton there is a steamer on every alternate day, Sundays excepted. The distance from Macao to Hongkong is 404 miles, and to Canton 88 miles.

PAKHOI.

　Pakhoi is one of the ports opened to foreign trade by the Chefoo Convention of 1876. It is situated on the Gulf of Tonquin in long. 109 deg. 13 min. E. and lat. 21 deg. 30 min. N. The British Consul hoisted his flag on the 1st May, 1877, and the foreigners were well received by the natives. Pakhoi is the port for the important city of Lien-chau, from whence considerable quantities of foreign piece goods are distributed over the country lying between the West River and the sea-board. It is believed that it will also become the great outlet for the trade of the province of Kwang- si. The trade is almost exclusively in the hands of Chinese, who tranship goods from Hongkong and Macao (chiefly the latter) in native bottoms. The value of the trade passing through the Foreign Customs in 1877 amounted to no more than Tls. 11,714 (say £3,500). The exports are sugar, oil, rice, tea, &c. When transit passes for the interior have been granted, and steam communication established, it is anticipated that the trade of Pakhoi will be considerable.

　The town is situated on a small peninsula and faces nearly due North. It stands at the foot of a bluff nearly forty feet high, which deprives it of the South-west breeze in summer, while in winter it is exposed to the full force of the North-east monsoon. From the bluff an extensive uncultivated plain stretches, over which there is good sport, geese, duck, snipe, plover, quail, and pigeons being found in abundance. The estimated population of the port is 15,000.

　No port in China is more easily approached and entered than that of Pakhoi. The landmarks are conspicuous and unmistakeable. The channel is wide and deep and has no hidden dang r to be avoided. The anchorage is a mile and a half from the town. There is good landing at high water, but at ebb tide only for small boats.

HOIHOW (IN HAINAN.)

The port of Hoihow, officially known as K'iu g-chow (the seat of the local govern- ment, and distant from its port about three and a half miles), was opened to foreign trade on the 1st April, 1876. A Vice-consul, who also acts for Germany, represents British interests, and there is a branch of the Imperial Maritime Customs controlling the duties, &c., paid on foreign trade. The position of the port, though geographically favourable, is topographically unsuitable for the development of any extensive commercial trans- actions, vessels being compelled to anchor some two miles from the entrance of the creek, or branch of the main river, upon which Hoihow is situatel. The tides are extremely irregular, and the anchorage is liable to the visitation of very severe typhoons, being moreover entirely unprotected from the North. As regards health, Hoihow compares favourably witu the other ports of Haiuan, though fever and ague are said to prevail to some extent. The port is badly supplied with water.

The approaches to the shore are extremely shallow, so that loading and unloading can only be carried on at certain states of the tide. Despite this disadvantage, however, the advent of foreign steamers has given a considerable impulse to trade, and qualified judges believe that Hoihow will before long vie with the Formosan ports in impor'ance. The town itself contains about 12,000 souls, and is governed by a Tsan-fu, or Lieutenant-Colonel. The mercantile population, though respectable, is by no means rich. It numbers about 158 business bouses (51 Cantonese, 39 Chao- chouese, 2 Fuhkienese, 10 Leichnoese, and 56 Hainanes) dealing chiefly in silk and cotton piece goods, medicines, opium, tobacco, sugar, oil cake, &c. The inhabitants are friendly to foreigners, and no disturbances have as yet interiered with amicable intercourse. The import of opium in 1877 amounted to 725 piculs, and the net revenue of the port was Tls. 63,150.

No foreign settlement has as yet been formed, nor does it app-ar that any steps will be taken to that end for a considerable time. Full reports upon the capabilities of the poit have been made by H.B.M. Consul at Canton and the Secretary of the Hongkong Chamber of Commerce.

WHAMPOA.

　　　　This village was formerly the seat of a large portion of the for ign trade with Canton, as foreign sailing vessels are not allowed to go further up the River. The trade in sailing vessels has, however, fallen off very much, and Whampoa is now the dullest of places. A British Vice-Consulate is stationed here, and a branch of the Maritime Customs, but there are no other foreigners. The large docks formerly belonging to the Hongkong and Whampoa Dock Company here have lately been sold to the Chinese Government, and even of the grog shops only one remains.

The village, known as Bambo Town, is a dirty and unattractive place, without any feature of interest, but the scenery round is picturesque and pleasing. Two lofty pagodas on neighbouring eminences are conspicuous objects from the riv r. The first of these, called the Whampoa Pagoda, is built on an island rising abruptly from the river to the height of 100 feet. It was erected about the year 1598, and is very much out of repair. A good size-l tree grows from the brickwork at the summit. Tho other pagoda, called the First Bar Pagoda, is nearer to Canton, and occupies a hill which is considered the guardian hill of the province. It was built between the years 1621 and 1628 as a palladium to the water way of the provincial capital.

　　　The importance of Whampoa is now a thing of the past, and there are se`dom more than one or two small foreign merchant vessels in port. The place will always, however, possess some int rest for foreigners, sine the earliest recollections of foreign commercial intercourse wit. China are associated with it, all foreign ships being in old times compelled to anchor at Whampoa.

CANTON.

Canton is situated on the Chu-kiang, or Pearl River, in latitude 23 d-g. 7 min. 10 sec. N., and longitude 113 deg. 14 min. 30 sec. E., and is the capital of the Province of Kwaugtung. It is sometimes called the City of Rams and the City of Genii, both of which names are derived from ancient legends. It is one of the first cities in the Chinese Empire. It is the seat of government for the province, and is the residence of the Viceroy of The Two Kwang" (Kwangtung and Kwangsi). The Governor of Kwangtung and the Tartar General are also resident here, besides a number of other government officials of more or less distinction. Mun-Tim, who performed the duties of Hoppo, or Superintendent of Customs, up to July, 1876, made himself particularly obnoxious to foreign merchants in these parts by what has been aptly termed the "Blockade of Hongkong."

　　　　Canton, owing to its favoured situation, became at an early date the port to which the traffic of European countries was attracted. The Portuguese found their way thither in 1516, but it is recorded that their conduct in those days was not calculated to impress the Chinese favourably. The Arab navigators had, however, been making regular voyages between Canton and the ports of Western Asia as early as the tenth century. The Dutch appeared on the scene about a hundred years later than the Portuguese, and these in their turn were supplanted by the Englis". The latter, towards the close of the seventeenth century, founde 1 the very prontable trade which was conducted for nearly one hundred and fifty years by the Agents of the East India Company, who established a Factory there in 1654, which was after- wards celebrated throughout the world. From 1684 the export of tea to England increased rapidly. The Company's monopoly t rminated in 1834. In 1839, Britain was led to a declaration of war with China in consequence of the oppression to which

foreigners were subjected by the native authorities, and Canton was menaced with capture in 1841. A pecuniary ransom was, however, received in lieu of the occupation of the city, and hostilities were for the time being suspended. The lesson, unfortunately, was without effect, and the arrogance of the Chinese continued unabated. The British campaign in Central China ensued, and the result was the signature of the T: eaty of Nanking (August 29th, 1842), by which what was called the Co-Hong monopoly at Canton was abolished and four additional ports thrown open to foreign trade. Never- theless, the provisions of the Treaty continued to be ignored in the City of Rams, and foreigners were still denied admittance within its walls. The result of protracted annoyances and insults was that in October, 1856, Sir Michael Seymour, with the fleet, again opened hostilities, and some two months later a mob in retaliation pillaged and burned all the foreign residences. In December, 1857, Sir Charles Straubenzee, in command of an expedition which had been specially despatched from England, attacked: the city, and it was taken on the 29th of that month. The city was occupied by the English until October, 1861, a period of nearly four years. By this time the natives had learned that the subjects of other nations living amongst them could not be subjected to insult and injury with impunity, and from that day to this foreigners of every nationality have dwelt peaceably in the locality.

Canton proper extends to a breadth of about two miles, is about six miles in circumference, and is enclosed by walls about twenty feet thick and from twenty-five to forty feet high. The suburbs spread along the river for nearly five miles. The entire circuit, including the suburbs, is stated by Williams to be nearly ten miles, the walls enclosing about six miles. What is called the New City now was formerly known as the Southern Suburb. Ile Western Suburb stretches for miles along the river. The gates by which entrance is gained into the city are sixteen in numb r, and two water gates. Canton contains reat attractions for foreign visitors in its numerous temples, pagodas, &c., and in the many curio shops to be found there.

When the foreign merchants went back to Canton to establish trade after the capture of the city by the English at the close of 1857, they found the Factory and the buildings along the river in ruins. Recourse for accommodation was consequently had to warehouses on the Honam side of the river. Considerable discussion subsequently took place as to the selection of a site for a permanent British settlement, and it was eventually determined that an extensive mudflat known as Shaurien should be filled in and appropriated. In 1859 an artificial island was created there, a canal constructed between the northern side of the site and the city, and solid and extensive embank- ments of masonry built. It took about two years to complete this undertaking, and cost no less than $325,000. Of this sum four-fifths were defrayed by the British, and one-fifth by the French Government, to whom a portion of the reclaimed land was given, but they have never built on it.

In consequence, however, of the subsequent decline in the importance of Canton as a place of trade, caused principally by the opening of some of the northern ports, the Shamien site has been availed of but by few, and many of the merchants by whom lots were purchased there in 1861, at enormous prices, have withdrawn from Canton a together. The trade now transacted there by foreigners is limited. Tea and Silk are the staple exports. The total export of Tea for the year ending 31st December, 1877, was 16,905,753 lbs.; and the quantity of Raw Silk exported during the same period was 28,592 piculs. The import of Oum in 1877 reached only 324 piculs. The total annual revenue of the port for 1877 was Tls. 1,007,706, as compared with Tls. 977,711 in 1876. The purely native trade of Canton still enjoys a high degree of prosperity. The population is estimated at 1,500,000.

Ample means of intercom:nunication exist between Canton and Hongkong, a distance of about ninety-five miles, in foreign steamers plying daily, and a large number of native craft. There is daily steam communication with Macao. Steamers also run regularly between Shanghai, Hongkong, and Canton. There is a safe and commodious anchorage within 150 yards of the river wall of Shamien. Only steamers go to Canton; sailing vessels never ascend beyond Whampoa, owing to the difficulties of navigating a crowded river.

SWATOW.

　　　Swatow, which was first thrown open to foreigners by Lord Eigin's Tr aty, is situated at the mouth of the river Han, near the eastern border of the Kwangtung Province, in lat. 23 deg. 20 min. 43 sec. N., and long. 116 deg. 39 min. 3 sec. È. It is the shipping port for the city of Cha'-o chow-fu, the seat of the local government, 35 miles inlaud, and San-Ho-Pa forty miles farther up the river.

　　　Swatow is built on the northern bank of the Han, which forms part of an alluval plain through which the branches of the river flow. The shore on the opposite si lo is bold and striking, the bills stretching away to the coast and forming wha' is kn wu to sea-going people as the "Cape of Good Hope," Pagoda Hill rises at te opposite side, and in a direct line from this lies the large island of Namoa.

The first foreign trading depôt in this locality was inaugurated at Nanoa, wh re the opium vessels used to anchor, but it was subsequently removed to Double Island, which is situated just inside the river and is four miles from Swatow. Foreigners here made themselves notorious in the early years of the settlement by the kidnapping of coolies, and so strong was the feeling shown against them by the natives that no foreigners were safe far from Double Island, while they were strictly forbidden to enter Swatow, and it was not until 1861 that they could do so. In the country round Swatow the antipathy to foreigners was of much longer duration. The British Consul was beld technically to reside at Cha'o-chow-fu, and subsequent to 18′ 1 several ineffectual attempts were made to pass through its ga'es. In 1866 a visit was made un ler more favourable circumstances, but it is only within the last few years that the popula tion bas refrained from annoyance and insult to forei ners within its walls. In 1862 the leas of a piece of land was applied for and granted to the British Government on the north bank of the river about a mile from Swatow, but so strong were the demonstrations of the populace against it that the matter fell through. Foreign residences, however, commenced to spring up here an 1 there, and many of them are consequently so newhat scattere l, though the majority are in or near the town of Swatow.

　　　The climate of Swatow is said to be very salubrious. The town occupies, how ver, an unenviable position as regards typhoons, on account of being opposite the lower mouth of the Formosa Channel, and it has on many occasions ben subjected to all the violence of these terrible storms which almost every year sweep across the lower coast of China.

　　　The foreign trade of Swatow has never been large, but of late years it has sho n a slight increase: Its proximity to Hongkong, which can be reached in from 15 to 20 hours, no doubt tells against it, as it enables the Chinese to conduct their own im¡ort business. The quantity of Opiun imported has increa ed very much of late years; the total iu 1868 was only 4,272 piculs as compared with 11,622 piculs in 1877. The quantity of Tea exported is very small, and reached only 4,856 piculs in 1877. A considerable trade is done in Sugar, there being 1,074,817 piculs exported in 1877, which shows an increase on previous years. The total revenue of the port for 1877 was Tl. 782,934, as compared with Tls. 842,962 in 1876. The population of Swatow

is estimated at 28,000.

AMOY.

Amoy was one of the five ports open to foreign trade before the ratification ofthe Treaty of Tientsin. It is situated upon the island of Haimun, at the mouth of the Dragon River, in lat. 24 deg. 40 min. N. and long. 118 deg. E. It was the scene of trade with western nations at a very early date. The Portuguese went there in 1544, but in consequence of their cruelty towards the natives, the Chinese authorities forcibly expelled them and burned thirteen of their vessels. The English had commercial dealings there up to 1730, when the Chinese Government issued an edict probibiting trade with foreigners at all ports except Canton. They made an exception as regards Spanish ships, which were allowed to trade at Amoy. The vessels of other nationa lities, however, continued to visit the place, and did so till the city was captured in 1841. The Treaty of Nanking was signed soon afterwards, and foreigners have since been allowed to live there in peace and security.

In describing Amoy, Dr. Williams says :-"The island (upon which Amoy is built is about forty miles in circumference, and contains scores of large villages besides the city. The scenery within the bay is picturesque, caused partly by the numerous islands which define it, surmounted by pagodas or temples, and partly by the high barren hills behind the city. There is an outer and an inner city, as one approaches it seaward, divided by a high ridge of rocky hills having a fortified wall running along the top. A paved road connects the two. The entire circuit of the city and suburts is about eight miles, containing a population of 300,000, while that of the islands is estimated at 100,000 more. The harbour is one of the best on the coast; there is good holding ground in the outer harbour, and vessels can anchor in the inner, within a short distance of the beach, and be perfectly secure; the tide rises and falls from fouricen to sixteen feet. The western side of the harbour, here from six hundred and seventy-five to eight hundred and forty yards wide, is formed by the island of Kulangsu It is a picturesque little spot and maintains a rural population of 3,500 people. Eastward of Amoy is the island of Quemoy or Kinmun (Golden Harbour), preseuting, a striking contrast in the low foreground on its south shore to the high land on Amoy."

There is little to be said about the city. It ranks as a third class city in China but it bears no comparison to Canton. It is considered, even for China, to be very dirty, and its inhabitants are unusually squalid in their habits. There are several places of interest to foreigners in the vicinity, and excursions are made to Chang-chow- tu, the chief city of the department of that name, and situated about 35 miles from Amoy. The island of Kulangsu is about a third of a mile from Amoy, and the residences of nearly all the foreigners are to be found there, although most transact business on the Amoy side.

There has always been a comparatively good trade done at Amoy. In 1864 the rebels captured Chang-chow-fu, and the commerc: of the port was greatly interfered with. There are a number of steamers from Hongkong which touch here regularly, and communication with that port is thus very frequent. The total export of Tea for 1877 was 173,398 piculs, and of Sugar for the same period 115,074 piculs. The net importation of Opium for 1877 was 4,045 piculs as compared with 3,153 picals in 1876. The total revenue of the port for 1877 was Tls. 712,445, against Tls. 573,87% in 1876. The population is estimated at 88,000.

TAKAO AND TAIWAN-FU.

Takao is a port in Formosa, and is situated in lat. 22 deg. 38 min. 3 sec. N. and long. 130 deg. 16 min. 3) sec. E. It was thrown open to foreigners in 1864. It is only a small place, occupied chiefly by Chinese fishermen, and, excepting the beautiful scenery surrounding it, possesses no features of interest. The appearance of the place and its vicinity from the sea is very pleasant. Ape's Hill is seen rising on the left and the Saracen's Head on the right. Between the two is the channel which lea is up to the inner harbour, which is about seven miles long and three miles across in its widest part. The soil of the country around Takao is extremely fertile; banyans and bamboos grow luxuriantly, and sugar plantations are numerous. Sugar is the principal article of export from Takao, and in 1877 it amounted to 567,582 piculs. The import of Opium in 1877 amounted to 3,168 piculs, as against 2,659 piculs in 1876. The total revenue of the port in 1877 was Tls. 150,381, and in 1876 Tls. 107,914. The population of Takao is estimated at 6,000.

　The city of Taiwan-fu lies about twenty miles from Takao in lat. 23 deg. 6 min. N. and long. 129 deg. 5 min E. It is a place of considerable size and importance. It is situate t about three miles from the coast, with which connection is kept up by means of canals. The walls of the city are some five miles in circumference and enclose many buildings and places of interest. Among these is an Examination Hall for the Chinese literati, capable of accommodating several thousand students. There are a great many trees and open spaces in the city, which give it rather a pleasant appearance. In the locality are the ruins of Zealandia, a fort which was built in 1630, and which was for many years the stronghold of the Dutch in Formosa. The Customs give no returns of trade here, as they are included with those of Takao. The port is an open shallow roa Istead, and vessels have to anchor at some distance from the shore. The population of Taiwan-fu is estimated at 189,000.

TAMSUI.

　The port of Tamsui is in lat. 25 deg. 10 min. N. and long. 101 deg. 26 min. E., on the northern side of the fertile island of Formosa. It is an uninteresting place. The trade at Tamsui is not extensive. Tea grows on the hills in the locality, but the quality is inferior. Camphor is manufactured here and elsewhere in Formosa, the tree from which it is made being very common on the island. The principal exports in 1877 were as follows:-Tea, 69,230 piculs; Camphor, 13,176 piculs; Coal, 28,948 tons. The import of Opium in 1877 was 1,669 piculs, and in 1876, 1,859 piculs. The total revenue of the port in 1877 was Tls. 235,504, and in 1876, Tls. 207,300. The population is estimated at 65,000.

KEELUNG.

　　　The port of Keelung lies to the north-east of Tamsui, in latitude 25 deg. 9 min. N. and longitude 121 deg. 47 min. E. It is situated on the shores of a bay between the capes of Foki and Peton, some twenty miles apart, amidst bold and striking scenery, backed by a range of mountains. It was once a Spanish Settlement, but was subsequently captured and held by the Dutch until they gave place to the Chinese under Koxinga. Though only a mere village it has long carried on a considerable native trade with Amoy, Chin-chew, and Foochow. Its staple product is coal, the mines of which are very productive and some of them are now being worked with modern English machinery under the direction of English miners. Sulphur also abounds in a valley in the neighbourhood. Keelung was opened to foreign trade at the same time as the other Formosan ports. The foreign trade is confined to the shipment of coal. Its exports are included in the returns for Tamsui.

FOOCHOW.

　　　Foochow (or Fuh-chau-fu) is the capital of the Fohkien province. It is situated in lat. 26 deg. 02 min. 24 sec. N., and long. 119. deg. 20 min. E. The city is built on a plain on the northern side of the river Min, and is distant about thirty-four miles from the sea, and nine miles from Pagoda Island, where foreign vessels anchor.

The attention of foreigners was early attracted to Foochow as a likely place where commercial intercourse could be profitably carried on in the shipment of Bohea Tea, which is grown largely in the locality. Before the port was opened, this article used to be carried overland to Canton for shipment, a journey which was both long aud difficult. The East India Company, as early as 1830, made representations in favour of the opening of the port, but nothing definite was done till the conclusion of the Treaty of Nanking in 1842. The early years of intercourse with the natives was any- thing but what was anticipated. The navigation of the river was difficult, there was no market for imports, and several attacks by the populace rendered the port an undesirable place of residence for some time. It was not until some ten vears after the port had been opened that there was much done in the export of Tea from the interior, but since then the quantity shipped has been considerable.

The city is built around three hills, and the circuit of the walled portion is between six and seven miles in length. Toe walls are about thirty feet high and twelve feet wile at the top. The streets are uarrow and filthy, but the number of trees about the official quarter of the city, and the wooded hills enclosed by the walls, give a picturesque appearance to the general view. Near the east gate of the city are several hot springs, which, like tuose in Japan, are used by the natives for the cure of skin diseases and are believed to be very efficacious. The Foochow dealers excel in the manufacture of miniature monuments, pagodas, dishes, &c., from what is called "soap stone," and in the construction of artificial flowers, curious figures of birds, &c. Tue foreign settlement is situated on the south side of the Min, on billy ground, opposite the island of Chung-chow. Communication is kept up between it and the city by means of a bridge.

The climate of Foochow is rather warmer in summer and cooler in winter than that of Hongkong. Frost and ice are occasionally-but very seldom-met with here; and it is recorded that in the month of February, 1864, some two inches of snow fell upon the surrounding bills. Such an occurrence had not been remembered for forty years before, and it certainly has not happened since.

　　The scenery surrounding Foochow is very beautiful. In sailing up the river from the sea, a distance of about seven or eight miles, vessels bave to leave the wide stream and enter what is called the Kimpai Pass, which is baroly half a mile across, and enclosed as it is by bold, rocky walls, it has a very striking appearance. Tho Pass of Min-ngan is still narrower, and with its towering cliffs, surmounted with fortifications and cultivated terraces, is very picturesque, and has been compared to some of the scenes on the Rhine.

　　Foreign vessels, with the exception of those of very light draught, are compelled to anchor at Pagoda Island, owing to the shallowness of the river, which has been increasing of late years, and the difficulties of navigation.

The trade of Foochow is mainly in Tea, the quantity exported in 1877 amounting to 618,122 piculs. Of Opium, 3,165 piculs net were imported in 1877 as against 4,017 piculs in 1876. The total revenue of the port for 1877 was Tls. 1,821,630; for 1876, it was Tls. 1,694,536. The population of Foochow is estimated at 600,000.

WENCHOW.

　　　　Wên-chow-fu, one of the four new ports opened to foreign trade by the Chefoo Convention, is the chief town in the department of the same name occupying the south-east corner of Che-kiang province. The city is situated on the south bank of the river Ou-kiang, about twenty miles from its mouth in lat. 27 deg. 18 min. 4 sec. N., long. 120 deg. 38 min. 28 sec. The site is a well cultivated plain, bounded on all sides, but at a distance of some ten miles, by lofty hills. The walls are said to have been first erected during the fourth century, and enlarged and e-built by the Emperor Hung-Wu in 1385. They are formed of stone, diagonally laid, and measure about six miles in circumference. The streets are wider, straighter, cleaner, and better paved than those of most Chinese cities, and far more attention is paid to sanitary matters. There are numerous large temples here, and in consequence it has been styled "a cathedral city." The Custom-house, outside the east gate, the Taotai's Yamên, in the south west corner of the city, and the Foundling Hospital near the centre are the other chief public buildings. The latter institution, built in 1748, contains one hundred apartments. It is supported by the interest of invested subscriptions and the rental of alluvial lands presented to it by the Government. The number of foundlings on the establishment's books at one time varies from two to three hundred. When of suitable age the boys are either articled to tradesmen, or adopted; the girls are betrothed as wives, or employed as house servants. There is also a Beggars' Asylum outside the south-west zate. It was built during the 14th century, and is supported by the state. The monthly allowance for each recipient is one tael and a half, but it is reported that few avail themselves of the charity. Among the objects of greatest interest and curiosity to the stranger are two pagodas situated on an island abreast of the city. They are both of great antiquity and are reputed to have been for some time the retreat of Ti Ping, the last Emperor of the Sung dynasty, when seeking to escape from the Mongols under Kublai Khan. The estimated population of the city is 170,000.

　　　　Wên-chow was formerly a great seat of the tea trade, and previous to 1861 was the only port in the departinent at which tea was allowed to be exported. The city was then in a flourishing condition. But in order to prevent the teas from falling into the hands of the Tâi-p'ing rebels, who over-ran the whole district during that year, this regulation was exchanged for one which authorized the export of tea at any of the Customs stations along the coast; consequently the trade soon gravitated to Foochow on the south and to Ningpo on the north. It was thought that on the conversion of Wên-chow into a treaty port it would speedily recover its old position as a tea exporting place, but this bas not so far proved to be the case, nor has the trade in any way been of a character to meet the expectations formed. At present there is no foreigu settlement, and the foreign residents in 1877 only numbered 19. The obstructive action of the officials in trying to impose additional burdens on in- ports Lelped to check the expansion of commerce, and there has so far beea little encouragement for foreigners to establish themselves at the port. There is a con- siderable native export trade in wood and bamboos, brought down the river in rafts from Ch'u-chow. The annual value of this trade is estimated to be not less than $2,000,000. The shops and yards engaged in it are situated in the west suburb, where immense quantities of bamboo and poles are kept on hand. The net value of the foreign imports for the year 1877 was Tls. 223,506. Only 28 piculs of Opium were imported during 1877. The net revenue for 1877 was Tls. 3,158. In the same year 7,745 piculs of Congou were exported, but at present there seems little prospect of the tea trade becoming important.

NINGPO.

Ningpo is situated on the river Yung, in the province of Chekiang, in lat. 29 deg. 55 min. 12 sec. N., and long. 121 deg. 22 min. E. It was one of the five ports thrown open to foreigners in 1842.

Foreigners bad, however, visited Ningpo at an early date. Portuguese traded there in 1522; a number of tuem settled in the place in that and succeeding years, and there was every prospect of a rising aud successful colony soon being established. But the lawless acts of the Portuguese at this as well as at other ports in China soon attracted the attention of the Government, and in 1542 the Governor of Chekiang ordered the settlement to be destroyed and the population to be exterminated. Ă large force of Cuinese troops soon besieged the place, destroying it entirely, and out of a population of 1,200 Portuguese, 800 were massacred. No further attempt at trade with this port was made till towards the close of the 17th century, when the East India Company established a factory at the island of Chusan, some forty miles from Ningpo. The attempt to found a trade mart there, however, proved unsatis- factory, and the factory was abandoned after a very few years' trial. The port was deserted by foreigners for many years after that. When hostilities broke out between Great Britain and China in 1839, the fleet moved north from Canton, and on the 13th October, 1841, occupied Ningpo, and an English garrison was stationed there for some time. In March, 1842, an attempt was made by the Chinese to retake the city, but the British artillery repulsed them with great slaughter. Ningpo was evacuated on May 7th, and, on the proclamation of peace in the following August, the port was thrown open to foreign trade.

NINGPO.

293

Ningpo is built on a plain, which stretches away to a considerable distance on either side. It is a walled city, the walls enclosing a space of some five miles in cir- cumference. The walls are built of brick, and are about twenty-five feet high. They are fifteen feet wide at the summit, and twenty-two at the base. Access is obtained to the town by six gates. A large moat commences at the north gate and runs along the foot of the wall for about three miles on the landward side, until it stops at what is called the Bridge Gate. The main street runs from cast to west. One of the peculiarities of the place is a number of walls built across various portions of the city, for the purpose of preventing the spread of fires. Several of the streets are spanned by arches erected in memory of distinguished natives. Ningpo has been celebrated as possessing the fourth library of Chinese works, in point of numbers, which existed in the empire. It was owned by a family who resided near the south gate. The site occupied by the foreign residences is on the north bank of the river. The trade at Ningpo has never been large. This is owing to a considerable extent, doubtless, to the proximity of Shanghai. The net quantity of Opium imported in 1877 was 7,991 piculs, as against 8,803 niculs in 1876. Of Te, there were 148,290 piculs exported in 1877, and 126,756 in 1876; Cotton, 30,092 piculs in 1877, 26,356 piculs in 1876. The quantity of Raw Silk exported in 1877 amounted to 440 bales, as compared with 1,322 bales for the previous twelve months. The to'al annual revenue of the port was Tls. 723,300 in 1877; and Tls. 719,590 in 1876. The population of Ningpo is estimated at 120,000.

　The most northerly of the five ports opened to foreign trade by the British Treaty of Nanking is situated at the extreme south-east corner of the province of Kiang-su, in latitude 31.41 north, and, longitude 126.29 east of Greenwich, at the junction of the rivers Woosung (called by foreigners the Soochow Creek) and Hwang-po, about twelve miles above the village of Woosung, where their united waters debouch into the estuary of the Yangtsze. The soil is alluvial and the country perfectly flat, the nearest eminence that can be called a bill being distant about thirty miles. The river opposite the city and foreign settlements, at one time a narrow canal, was some ten years ago 1,500 yards broad, but has been rapidly narrowing till it is now only 1,200 yards. The Soochow Creek, which is shown by old records to have been at one time at least three miles across, has now a breadth of only a bundred yards. The average water on the bar at Woosung is nineteen feet, the greatest depth of late years being twenty-three feet.

　Shangbai-the name means "up from the sea or near the sea "-became a hsien or third rate city in the fourteenth century, and the walls, which are three and a half miles in circumference, with seven gates, were erected at the time of the Japanese invasion, in the latter part of the sixteenth century. It had been an im- portant seat of trade for many centuries before the incursion of foreigners.

　The ground selected by Captain Balfour, the first British Consul, for a Settle- ment for his nationals, lies about half a mile north of the city walls, between the Yang-king-pang and Soochow Creeks, and now extends backwards from the river to a ditch connecting the two, called the Defence Creek, thus forming what may be called an island, a mile square. It was formally declared open to trade on the 17th November, 1843. The French subsequently settled on the ground between the city walls and the British Concession, and in exchange for help rendered in driving out the rebels who had seized the city in 1853, got a grant of the land extending for about a mile to the south between the city walls and the river. They have since by purchase extended the bounds of the Concession westward to the "Ningpo Joss House," a mile from the river. Later on the Americans rented land immediately north of Soochow Creek, in the district called Hongkew, so that the ground now occupied by foreigners extends for about four miles on the left bank of the river. Most of the land at Pootung, on the opposite bank, is now also rented by foreigners. A'l ground belongs nominally to the Chinese Government, but is rented in perpetuity, a tax of fifteen hundred copper cash per mow being paid to the Government annually. About six mow equal one English acre.

　The approach by sea to Shanghai is now well lighted and buoyed, and, although it has not yet become, as Mr. Inspector-General Hart stated in one of his despatches it would, "as safe as a walk down Regent Street when the gas is lit," the dangers of the ever shifting banks and shoals are as well guarded as can be expected. Under the superintendence the Engineering department of the Customs, light-houses have been erected on W st. Volcano, Shaweishan, North Saddle, and Gutzlaff Islands, and at Woosung. There is also a lightship below and one in the Yangtsze above Woosung.

　As a port for foreign trade Shanghai grew but gradually until it gained a great impetus by the opening in 1861 of the Yangtsze and Northern ports, secured by the Treaty of Tienis.n, and subsequently by the opening up of Japan. The first event of importance since the advent of foreigners was the taking of the city by a band of rebels in 1853, who hell it for seventeen months. This caused a large number of refugees to seek shelter within the foreign settlements, and the price of land rose very considerably. Owing to the occupation of the city the authorities were powerless to collect the duties, and it was in consequence agreed between the Taotai and the three

Consuls (British, French, and United States) that they should be collected under foreign control. This was found to work so much to the alvantage of the Chinese Government that the system was extended by the Treaty of Tientsin to all the open ports, and thus the Foreign Inspectorate of Customs was established, the bead- quarters of which was for some years, and according to the original regulations should still be, at Shanghai. In 1861 the Taipings approachel Shanghai and threatened the city and settlements. The taking of Soochow on 25th May, 1860, had driven a large number of the inhabitants of that city and the surrounding districts to Shanghai for protection, so that the native population increased rapidly. It was variously estimated at from four hundred thousand to a million, but the smaller number is probably nearer the mark. So immensely did the price of land rise that it is stated ground which had originally cost foreigners fifty pounds per acre was sold for ten thousand pounds. At this time the old Cricket Ground was sold at such an enormous profit that after the shareholders had been repaid the original cost there was a balance of some forty-five thousand taels, which the owners generously devoted to the foundation of a fund for the use of the public, to be applied to the purposes of recreation only. Unfortunatly thirty thousand taels of this amount was lent by the treasurer on his own responsibility to the Club, in which institution he was a share- holder. As the club shareholders were never willing to repay this loan, the building and furniture were taken over in 1869 by the trus.ees on behalf of the Recreation Fund, to which they still belong. This fund has proved very useful in ren lering assistance to some other public institutions besides having purchased the new Race Course with all the ground in the interior. By this time provisions hal increased in price to four times what they had been some years previously. Efforts were ma le to keep the rebels at a distance from the settlements. A detachment of British Royal Marines and an Indian Regiment garris ned the walls, while the gates on the side towards the French Settlement were guarded by French Marines. În August, 1861, the city was attacked, and the suburbs between the city walls and river were in con- sequence destroyed by the French, the rebels being ultimately driven back. In December, the rebels to the number of one hundred thousand again threatened the Settlements. The approaches were barricaded and the Defence Creek constructed and fortified at an expense of forty-five thousand taels. A volunteer force was also formed amongst the foreign residents, under the command of Captain, now Sir Thomas Wade, which did really good service. Before the close of 1862 the rebels had been driven by the British Forces beyond a radius of thirty miles around Shanghai.

　　At the time the local native Authorities were severely pressed they availed themselves of the services of an American adventurer named Ward who raised a band of desert-rs from foreign ships and rowdies of all nations who had con- gregated at Shanghai, with whose help he drilled a regiment of natives. After passing under the command of another low caste American of the name of Burgevine, who subsequently deserted to the rebels, it was found impossible by the Imperial Authorities to control these raw and undisciplined levies, and at their earnest request Admiral Sir James Hope consented to the appointment of Major, now Colonel, Gordon, R.E., to the command. Having by him been made amenable to discipline, they now rendered the greatest service in the suppression of the rebellion; indeed it is generally held doubtful if the Taiping Rebellion would ever have been overcome but for the assistance of "The Ever Victorious Army," as this hastily raised band was named. Amongst other services they regained possession of the important city of Soochow. From 1860 to 1865 one British and two Indian Regi- ments and a batt ry of Artillery were stationed at Shanghai.

　　Since that time there have been few historical events worthy of record in a brief sun mary.

　　　　　　　　On Christmas eve, 1870 the British Consulate was burned down and most of the records completely lost. In May, 1874 a riot occurred in the French Settlement owing to the intention of the Municipal Council to make a road through an old graveyard belonging to the Ningpo Guill. One or two Europeans were severely injured, and three natives lost their lives. A considerable amount of foreign owned property was destroyed.

　As at all the open ports, foreigners are in judicial matters subject to the immediate control of their Consuls, British subjects coming under the jurisdiction of the Supreme Court, which was opened in September, 1865. Subjects of Her Britannic Majesty ave to pay a poll tax of five dollars for gentlemen and one dollar for "artizans and labourers," for which they have the privilege of being registered at the Consulate, and of being heard as plaintiffs before the Court. Although there is enforced registration at several of the other Consulates it is free of charge. Chinese residents in the Foreign Settlements are amenable to the Mixed Court, which was established at the instigation of Sir Harry Parkes in 1864 and is pre- sided over by an official of a rank a little above that of wei yuen, and foreign assessors from the different Consulate, the first British assessor calling himself a "co-judge." For the French Concession there is a separate Mixed Court, which sits at the French Consulate.

"

In local affairs the residents govern themselves by means of Municipal Councils under the Authority of the "Land Regulations." These were originally drawn up by H.B.M. Consul in 1854, but have since underg ne various amendments. In 1854 the first general Land Regulations-the city charter, as they may be called- were sanctioned by the Foreign Ministers and P-king Authorities, by which persons of all nationalities were allowed to rent land within the defined limits, and in 1863 the so-called " American Settlement" was amalgamated with the British into one Municipality. The "Committee of Roads and Jetties," originally consisting of "three upright British Merchants," appointed by the British Consul, afterwards became the Municipal Council," elected by the renters of land, and when the revised Land Regulations came into force in 1870, the Council for the Foreign Community of Shanghai North of the Yang king-pang," elected in January of each year by all householders who pay rates on an assessed rental of five hundred taels and owners of land valued at five hundred taels and over. The Council now consists of nine members of various nationalities, who elect their own chairman and vice-chairman and who give their services free. A separate Council for the French Concession was appointed in 1862, which now works under the "Réglement d'Organisation Muni- cipal de la Concession Francaise," passed in 1868, and consists of four French and four foreign members, elected for two years, half of whom retir annually. They are elected by all owners of land on the Concession or occupants paying a rental of a thousand francs per annum or residents with an annual income of four thousand francs. This, it will be noticed, approaches much more nearly to "universal suf- frage" than the franchise of the other Settlements, which, as the bong system still exists to a considerable extent and five and six roomed houses are now to be gɔt for a rental under the required five hundred taels, is considered by many as excluding too large a proportion of responsible residents. The qualification for councillors North of the Yang-king-pang is the payment of rates to the amount of fifty tals annually, or being a householder paying rates on an assessed rental of twelve hun- dred taels. For the French Concession the requirement is a monetary one of about the same extent. Several efforts have been made to amalgamate the French with the other Settlements, but hitherto without success. The Council divides itself into Defence, Finance, Watch, and Works Committees. This cosmopolitan system of Government has for many years worked so well and so cheaply, that Shanghai has fairly earned for its If the name of "The Model Settlement."

The Foreign population has considerably decreased from what it was at one time. The census of 1865 gave the number of foreign residents in the three Settlements as 2,757, army and navy (British) 1,851, shipping 981, a total of 5,589. By the census of 1876 there were in the Settlements north of the Yang-king-pang a total of 1,673 foreigners, 1,062 in the English division and 611 in Hongkew and Pootung; of these 1,086 were males, 296 females and 291 children. The proportion of different nationaliti s was 878 (or more than one-half) British, 181 American, 168 Portuguese, 129 German, 103 Spaniards, 45 Japanese, 35 Danes, 22 French, and 112 of various other nationalites. The French Concession contains about 500 foreigners, the greater proportion being French and the remainder mostly from other European, Continental countries. These figures do not include any of the population afloat, which may be estimated at 1,000 or over. Although the Chinese have no right of residence within the Foreign Settlement, and indeed were expressly prohibited by the original Land Regulations, some twenty thousand sought refuge within the boundaries from the rebels in 1854, and when the city was besieged by the Taipings in 1800 there were, it is said, at least four hundred thousand natives within the Settlements.

As they found some amenities from "squeezing" when under the protection of foreigners, and foreigners themselves being able to obtain a much higher rental for their land and finding native house property a very profitable investment, no opposition was made to their residence. In 1865 there were in the three Settlements 146,000. The numbers by the last census (1876) were; in the English Settlement 73,159 and in Hongkew 22,503. The native population of the French Conc ssion is about 50,000, and the boat population 11,000, say a total of 156,000. A large proportion are natives of Chekiang and Kwangtung, those in the direct employ of foreigners being almost exclusively from these provinces. The population of the native city is sup. post ed to be about 125,000. The large congregation of natives in the Settlements is kept in admirable order by a Police force of 35 foreigners and 133 natives for the north of the Yang-king-pang, and 33 foreigners and 20 natives for the French Con- cession. Considering that the natives have to be tried by their own authorities, and

effects in Shanghai as elsewhere in China, the small force is highly creditable. In few places is

The climate of Shanghai is generally allowed to be fairly healthy. The death rate amongst foreigners ashore and afloat had decreased from 34 per 1,000 in 1870 to 22.3 per 1,000 in 1875 and to 23 per 1,000 in 1876, a rate which compares favourably with that of large towns in England. It rose to 28.3 in 1877 owing to a partial outbreak of cholera. Of 85 deaths amongst foreigners during that year 16 were from this cause. If we exclude non-residents the rate was 19 per 1,000 in 1876 and 23 per 1,000 in 1877. The thermometer ranges from 25 deg. to 100 deg. Fahrenheit, the mean of several years having been 49 deg. in the six winter months and 76 deg. 1 min. in the summer. In the months of October and November there is generally dry, clear, and most lovely weather, equal to what can be found in any other part of the world; but when the winter has fairly set in the north-east winds are extremely cold and biting. The beat in the summer is sometimes excessive, but seldom lasts more than a few days at a time. An earthquake (ccurred in November, 1847, but this is the only one of which we have any record.

　The streets of the English and French Settlements all run north and south and east and west, mostly for the whole length of both settlemen's, crossing each other at right angls. Notwithstanding the soft nature of the soil they are now kept in remarkably good order, at least those near the river, the district chiefly occupied by Europeans. Owing to the nature of the ground, expensive piling is necessary before any foreign building can be erected, and all store Las to be brought from a long distance. The Soochow Creek, between the English Settlement and Hongkew is now crossed by five bridges, three of which are adapted for carriage traffic, and the French is connected with the other Settlements by eight bridges. There are several gool driving rads ext@uding into the country, two leading to Sicawei, a distance of five and a half mil 8, and one to Jessfield, by the banks of the Soochow Creek, for about seven miles. Another broad road, more recently con- structed, runs by the side of the river for six miles. It is intended to extend it ultimately to Woosung. Several other roads have been proposed, but although foreigners are prepared to pay high prices for the land the opposition of the officials bas hitherto prevented their construction. At the time the Taipings approached Shanghai some reads for the passage of artillery were made by the British Military Authorities at the expense of the Chinese Government, one of them extending for seventeen miles into the country; but excepting those close to the Settlement they have now been turned into ploughed fields. An inland carriage road to Woosung was also made at the expense of Messrs. Jardine, Matheson & Co. and others, but it has now also been reduced to a narrow footpath.

　Many foreign bou-es, nearly all of them with several acres of garden ground, have been erect d near the outside roads, especially on that leading to the Bub- bling Well, which is the main outlet from the Settl ment and from which most of the other roads brauch off. This road and its extension to Sicawei is planted with trees on both sides, forming a fine avenue of over five miles in length. A small Lut well laid out and admirably kept Public Garden was formed about ten years ago on land recover d from the river in front of the British Consulate.

Immense suus have been wasted in various attempts to drain the settlements, principally from the want of skilled direction; but the great difficulties in this matter, arising from the low lying and level nature of the grou d, have now been fair y overcome. The settlements are well provided with telegraphic fire alarms.

　Many attempts have been made to inaugurate water works, which are very much needed, te supply of this necessary being at present obtained by bucke's from the river. It is unfit for cooking or drinking unless both boiled and filtered. A private Company have filtering works from which they supply the public at so much per bucket, but what is wanted is well filtered water from a pure source laid on at the houses. The d sire of the Municipal Councils to keep this work in their own hands and the heavy outlay required have hitherto prevented its being carried out.

Shanghai can boast of several fine buildings of various and varied styles of architecture. Trinity Cathedral, erected from a design by Sir Gilbert Scott, is one of the finest specimens of modern ecclesiastical architecture to be found out of Europe, but from want of funds the tower and spire, which is an essential part of the design, has not yet been built. There is a Roman Catholic Church in the French Concession and another, completed about two years ago, in Hongkew; also a Chapel belonging to the London Mission and one to the American Episcopalians, and a very pretty and prettily situated Seamen's Church at Pootung, bes des several Mission Chapels for natives. The Shanghai Club occupies an extensive and elaborate building at one end of the English Bund. It cost Tls. 120,000, and at that is said to have ruined three contractors. It has passed through a varied and peculiar history. There is a really fine Masonic Hall at the other end of the Bund. Amongst the other conspicuous buildings may be mentioned those occupied by the Oriental and Hong- kong and Shanghai Banking Corporations. There is a very fair Theatre, but it is as yet devoid of internal decoration. The members of the German (Concordia) lub have also a handsome little Theatre attached to their premises. The principal buildings on the French Concession are the Municipal Hall and the Consulate.

　　Among the institutions of the place may be mentioned the Volunteer Defence Force, consisting of Cavalry called "Mounted Rangers," Field Artill ry and Rifle Brigade; the latter comprising three companies. Originally formed in 1861 it gradually went to decay, until the fear of attack after the Massacre at Tientsin in 1870 caused its revival with considerable vigour. It has now again unfortunately dwindled in numbers, but an effort is at present being made to reorganise it. The Volunteer Fire Brigade consists of seven Engine and two Hook and Ladder Com- panies. There is a Hospital for foreigners, the new and commodious building for wi ich was completed early in 1877, and several for natives. The Temperance Society has a good ball and well furnished library, and having latterly been conducted on liberal principles is well supported by the community. The other public institutions may be enumerated as, a Subscription Library containing about 10,000 volumes, a branch of the Royal Asiatic Society, with the nucleus o: a Museum, a Sailors' Home, a Polytechnic Institution for Chinese, a S amen's Library and Museum, a well sup- plied Gymnasium, a Wind Instrument Society, which gives a series of weekly concerts in the Public Gar lens during the summer months, a Race Club, possessing a course of a mile and a quarter, a Parsee and a Portuguese Club, also Pony Paper Hust, Foot Paper Hunt, Crickt, Rifle, Racket, and various other Clubs for recreation. The last naned owns a building containing two splendid Courts, Bowling Green, Tennis Law, etc. There are ten or eleven Masonic bodies, with over 500 members. In 1876 a District Grand Lodge for North China was constitute, with Shanghai as its head-quarters.

　　There are four Docks at Shanghai, the ne at Tunkadoo, opposite the city, having a length of 380 feet over all with a depth at spring tid s of 21 feet; the Old Dock at Hongkew is 374 feet long and 18 feet deep at springs. All steamers and most sailing vs now discharge and load at the various public an private wharves. The premises of the Associated Wharf Company has a frontage of about three-quarters of a mile. The Chinese have an Arsenal and shipbuilding establishment at Kaou Chung-mow, a short distance above the city. The Great Northern Telegraph Com- pany's Cable was laid to Shanghai in 1871, and there are now two lines of com- munication with Europe. The Eastern Extension Company has an agency for the receipt of messages. A railway constructed by a foreign Company was opened to Woosung in June, 1876 but after running for four months it was purchased and taken up by the Chinese Authorities. During the short time it was running the passenger traffic along more than covered the working expenses. In 1877 the property of the Shanghai Steam Navigation Company, a foreign association owning the prin cipal lins of steamer trading to the Yangtze and Northern ports, was bought by the Chinese Government, acting through the China Merchants' Steam Naviga- tion Company, for the sum of two million taels. The property then taken over

consisted of about fifteen steamers, a dock, and extensive wharfs and godowns in the French Settlement and at Hongkew.

The hotel accommodation of Shanghai was formerly, like that of Hongkong and Yokohama, of the most miserable description, but by the opening of the "Central" and the re-building of the "Astor House" in 1876-77, it is now in this respect unexcelled by any port in the East. There are two daily newspapers, the North China Daily News, morning, and the Shanghai Courier, evening, with dependent weeklies, the North China Herald and the Celestial Empire. There are two native daily papers; one of them, the Shun-pao, sold at the price of eight cash, equal to a farthing and a half, bas a very large circulation, the other is the organ of the officials. In one matter, that of Postal accommodation, Shanghai is incon- veniently over-supplied, there being British, French, American, Japanese, Local, and Customs Post offices. It is hoped that the Chinese Government may soon establish a general postal department in connection with the International Union, to be under the control of the Foreign Customs, or that failing this the other Authorities may consent to all correspondence passing through either the British or Local Offices. All foreign hongs aud even private houses have to give themselves high flown Chinese names, by which only are they known to the natives. The system is, however, found to have its conveniences.

The currency of Shanghai is the tael of silver, cast into "shoes" of fifty taels, more or less. The foreign banks issue notes of the value of five taels and upwards. Smaller transactions are conducted in clean Mexican dollars and copper cash. There are seven foreign and innumerable native banks in the Settlement.

Shanghai is the great emporium for the trade of the Yangtsze and Northern ports and to a considerable extent for Japan. The export of Tea from 1846 to 1850 averaged sixteen mill on pounds, and Silk during the same period seventeen thousand bales. The total import and export trade of 1868 was sixty-five million taels. In the twenty years which have elapsed this has been nearly doubled. The total trado in foreign bottoms, import and export for 1877, as given by the Customs Statistical Department was Haikwan Tls. 117,000,000, equal to about $180,000,000, which may be summarised as follows:---

Imports from Great Britain...

CHINKIANG.

　　　　The port of Chinkiang (or Chên-kiang-fu), which was declared open to foreign trade by the Treaty of Tientsin, is situated about 150 miles from the Yangtze at the point where the Grand Canal enters the river.

The history of Chinking possesses but few features of interest. The position of the town, as a translation of its name implies ("River Guard"), was at one time of considerable importance from a military point of view, when all the rico-tribute from the south of China was transported to Peking by the interior route. The British forces captured the place in July, 1842, and as the cutting off of supplies always produces a powerful effect, the commanding situation thus secured was not long in pro- ducing the desired result upon the Central Government, for the Treaty of Nanking was signed a month afterwards. The Taiping rebels entered the town in April, 1853, and continued to occupy it till 1857, when they had to yield to the same cause which had made the Government yield ten years before.

　　　　The city lies between one of the mouths of the Grand Canal and the right back of the Yangtsze. Most of the houses are built on level ground, but the hills surrounding lend a pleasant appearance to the locality, which is enhanced considerably by the bluff scenery of the island of Ts'io-shan. When the city was abandoned by the rebel forces, its destruction was very nearly complete, and it still retains to some extent its desolate aspect. The foreign settlement occupies a tract of land extending from the mouth of the Canal along the bank of the river.

Considerable commercial importance was attached to the port when it was first opened. The largest vessels can approach it, and hopes were high as to the position it would occupy in the development of inland trade with China. But, like the hopes entertained respecting several of the other Chinese ports, they have proved delusive, and the trade on the Yangtze seems to have centred at Hankow, farther up the river. The net importation of Opium into Chinkiang in 1877 was 10,799 piculs, against 10,649 piculs in 1876. The import of this drug has steadily increased during the past ten years. The total annual revenue of the port for 1877 amounted to Tls. 122,381, and in 1877 it was Tls. 149,866. The population of Chinkiang is estimated at 140,000.

WUHU.

This port was opened to foreign trade, by the Chefoo Convention, on the let April, 1877. It is situated on the river Yangtsze, in the province of Aa-bwei, and is a half-way port between Chinkiang and Kiukiang, though nearer to the former. It has the appearance of a thriving and busy town, and is admirably located for trade. This is mainly owing to the excellence of its water communication with the interior. A large canal, with a depth of five to six feet of water in the winter and ten to twelve feet in the summer connects the port with the important city of Ning-kuoh-fu, in southern An-hwei, fifty miles distant. Another canal runs inland for over eighty miles in a south-westerly direction to Taiping-hsien, an extensive tea district. This canal, which is only navigable in the summer, passes through Nan-ling and King- hsien, where the cultivation of silk is carried on and may some day be of importance.

WUHU.

339

　　Boats carrying from 200 to 300 piculs of teac an come from Tai-ping-bsien to Wuhu in the summer and autumn, but in the winter the creek is partially dry, and navigation rendered impossible. The silk districts of Nau-ling and King-bsien are situated within fifty miles of Wuhu. Besides the canals leading to Ning-kuoh-fu and Tai-ping- hsien, there are two others communicating with Su-an and Tung-pó. The Su-an canal is navigable for small boats in summer for nearly one hundred miles, and passes through some silk producing country; while that leading to Tung-pó can be traversed by native craft of considerable size, for about seventy miles. On the northern side of the Yangtsze a fine broad canal, navigable in summer for vessels drawing ten to twelve feet of water, connects Wubu with Lü-chow-fu, the chief mercantile depôt for central An-hwei.

　　　　　It will be seer, from the above enumeration of the facilities for water carriage from Wuhu, that it is calculated to prove an emporium for commerce. It has indeed long been the seat of an extensive junk traffic, and is the only one of the new treaty ports which has so far at all fulfilled the anticipations formed of it. A very fair import trade has sprung up, and both that and the export trade are steadily growing. The Customs revenue is already about half that of Kiukiang. The total value of the trade passing through the Foreign Customs for the year 1877 was Tls. 1,586,682, of which amount Tls. 893,408 represented the foreign imports. 1,161 piculs of Opium were imported in 1877.

The town is fairly well built, with rather broader streets than most Chinese cities possess, and is tolerably paved. Its population is estimated at 40,000 inha- bitants. The anc! orage is good and resembles that of Chiukiang.

KIUKIANG.

Kiukiang is situated on the Yangtsze, near the outlet of the Poyang Lake, at is a prefectural city of the province of Kiang-si. It is about 137 geographical mila from Hankow and 445 from Shanghai.

Kiukiang was at one time a busy and populous city; but it was occupied by the Taiping rebels in 1853, aud before it was given up to the Imperial troops it utterly destroyed, presenting one of those melancholy spectacles which these hordes of usurpers left so often bebind them. A gentleman (Mr. Laurence Oliphant) whe visited it in 1858 speaks of the desolation of the city in the following terms :- found it to the last degree deplorable. A single dilapidated street, composed only of a few mean shops, was all that existed of this once thriving and populous city; the remainder of the vast area comprised within its walls, five or six miles in circumference, contained nothing but ruins, weeds, and kitchen gardens.' When the foreign settle- ment was established there, however, the population soon returned, and it has con- tinued to increase rapidly. It is now estimated at 40,000.

"

The city is built close to the river, the walls running along the banks of it for some 500 yards. Their circumference is about five miles, but a considerable portion of the space enclosed is not occupied. The city contains no features of interest There are several large lakes to the north and west of it, and beyond the principal suburb lies the foreign settlement. On the opening of the port considerable trouble was experienced in securing the land on which to build the foreign residences, the Chinese demanding extortionate prices for it. Indeed, so bitter was the opposition manifested that before the ground could be cleared some of the native houses bad to be forcibly demolished.

The idea which led to the opening of Kiukiang was, no doubt, its situation a3 regards communication by water with the districts where the Green Tea is produced. But the hopes entertained respecting Kiukiang have never been realised. The total quantity of Tea exported in 1877 was 245,145 piculs, of which 51,476 piculs were Green. Opium was imported to the extent of 1,852 piculs in 1877, and 2,043 piculs in 1876. The total revenue of the port for 1877 was Tl. 689,125, and for 1876, Tls. 694,747.

HANKOW.

Hankow 18 situated on the river Han at the point where it enters the Yangiɛze and is in lat. 30 deg. 32 min. 51 sec. N., and long. 114 deg. 19 min. 55 sec. E. Toe natives look upor Hankow as only a suburb of Hanyang, which it immediatelṛ, adjoins, and which is a district city of the province of Hupeh. These two towns lie immediately facing the city of Wuchang-fu, the capital of the province, which is built upon the south bank of the Yangteze. Hankow is distaut from Shanghai about 600 miles.

Lord Elgin visited Hankow in 1858 and must have been one of the first foreigners who ever entered this inland city. Attention was first drawn to it as a place of trade by Huc, a French missionary, whose writings on China are less popular now than they used to b, but it is generally believed that this reverend father had never been within many miles of the place, and had drawn largely on his fertile imagination for his details. Sir James Hope and Sir Harry Parkes were in Hankow in 1861 when the port was opened.

Captain Blakistou in his work "The Yangtsze," gives the following description of the place and its surroundings:-"Hankow is situated just where an irregular range of semi-detached low hill crosses a particularly level coun ry on both sides of the main river in an east and west direction. Stationed on Pagoda Hill, a spectator looks down on almost as much water as land even when the rivers are low. At his feet sweeps the magnificent Yangtsze, nearly a mil in width; from the west and skirting the northern edge of the range of hills alrea ly mentioned, comes the river Han, narrow and caual l:ke, to add its quota, and serving as one of the bighways of the country; aud to the northwest and north is au extensive treeless flit, so little elevated above the river t at the scattered bamlets which dot its surface are without exception raised on mounds, probably artificial works of a now distant age. A ɛtream or twɔ traverse its farther part and flow into the main river. Carrying his eye to the right bank of the Yangisze one sees enormous lakes and lagoons both to the north-west and south-east sides of the hills beyond the provincial city."

When the port was opened the natives, as at several other new ports, put many difficulties in the way of fixing a site for the British Settlement. They demanded exces-ive prices for the lots marked off for occupation, and it was pot till the port had been open for some time, and many residents had temporarily taken up an abode on the Hanyang shore, that a satisfactory arrangement was arrived at. A French Settlement was subsequently fixed upon, but it has never been occupied.

Great expectations as regards trade were entert ined respecting the opening of Hankow, Foreign commerce would be brought into immediate contact with the large internal populations of China, and a port established in the locality of the great tea producing districts. These expectations, however, havo been but partially realised. Tea is, of course, the staple export, and it is at Hankow that the first steamers for home take in their cargoes. Of late, the business of commission merchants both at Hankow and Shanghai his begun to be superseded by men coming direct from bome. The London merchants send out agents at the beginning of the season. They go right through to Hankow, purchase the new season's Teas, see them shipped on board the steamer, and leave again for home, thus doing their business without any assistance from the local merchant. This is but another instance of the facility of international communication in these progressive days. The total export of Tea from Hankow (including re-exports from Kiukiang) amounted in 1877 to 502,895 piculs, In 1877 Opium was imported to the extent of 2,477 piculs as against 2,189 in 1876. The revenue of the port in 1877, amounted to Tis. 1,690,434, and in 1876 to Tls. 1,801,335. The population of Haukow is estimated at 600,000.

ICHANG.

　　This is one of the four ports opened to foreign trade on the 1st 'April, 1877 according to the provisions of Clause I. of Section III. of the Chefoo Convention Icharg is a prefectural city, of considerable official importance, in the province o Hupeh. It is situated on the river Yangtsze, about 363 miles from Hankow. The navigation of the river up to this port is easy for vessels of light draught, but the minimum depth o! water at Ichang is only seven or eight feet. There is good anchorage at and near the city. The port is the centre of a fairly rich coun try. Besides the common productions of the great plain of Hupeb the cultivation of the tungtsze tree from which the tung oil is expressed begins on the hills near Ichang and extends westward into Szechuen. Opium is grown in small quantities in the district and may interfere with the import of the foreign drug. Ichang is con- veniently situated as a mart for the tea districts of Hob-fung-chow, the produce of which might, it is thought, be made suitable for foreign use. It was generally supposed that, as Ichang is situated at the head of steamer navigation ou the Yangtsze and occupies a good position for trade, the port would become au important com- mercial centre. Up to the present, however, these anticipations bave not been realised: Ichang is not a great distributing centre, nor does it appear likely to become

$0.

The port cuts a miserable figure in the "Customs Gazette," where quarter after quarter the exports and imports have been returned as nil. The total value of the trade for 1877, carried in foreign bottoms, which consisted exclusively of exports, amounted to only Tls. 4,585. The estimated population of the port is 13,000.

CHEFOO.

　　　Chefoo is situated on the northern side of the Shantung Promontory, in lat 37 deg. 35 min. 56 sec. N, and long. 124 deg. 22 min. 33 sec. E. The designation by which it is generally known among foreigners is a misnomer, as the town of Yentai is really the port to which the name has come to be applied. Chefoo is a harbour in the locality of Yentai but has no cɔnnection with it.

　　　When the town was first occupied by the merchants of other nations, it was in the possession of a number of French troops, and no definite foreign settlement was then marked out. The consequence is that no plan has ever been adopted in tho arrangement of the houses, and many of them have been in time surrounded by native buildings. Tue Chinese town is squalid and uninteresting. It is built on the shore, and possesses a fine sandy beach. The surrounding country is gently undulated for som little distance from the town, and beyond that the hills rise to a considerable height and lend to the landscape an interesting and varied aspect.

Chefoo of late years has become the resort of many for ign residents in China in consequence of its very salubrious climat". It is said to be the most salubrious port in China. In winter, when the Pei-ho is frozen, merchandise and mails for Tientsin and some of the more northern cities are landed at this port and conveyed to their destinations overland. The harbour is commodious and possesses depth of water for vessels of considerable draught, but it is exposed to strong gales which prevail at certain seasons of the year. Chefoo will be henceforth noted as the place where Sir

CHEFOO.

Thomas Wade and Li Hung-chang concluded the "Chefoo Convention" in Sep- tember, 1876, and thus brought to a termination the negotiations which had been pending so long respecting the reparation demanded by the British Government for the murder of Mr. Margary in Yunnan.

r

　　The trade of Chefoo, like that of Newchwang, is principally carried on in Bean- cake and Beans, of which large quantities are annually exported to the southern ports of China. In 1877, the net export of the former amounted to 626,526 piculs and of the latter to 147,218 piculs. The quantity of Opium imported in 1877 amounted to 2,152 piculs as compared with 2,228 piculs in 1876. This import has steadily declined for the past three years, owing partly to the increased cultivation of the poppy in Shantung and partly to the dreadful famines which have desolated the province. The total revenue of the port for 1877 amounted to Tls. 215,056, and for 1876 to Tls. 234,534. The population of Chefoo is estimated at 30,000.

TAKU.

This village is situated at the mouth of the Pei-ho, on the southern side of thə river, about sixty-seven miles from Tientsin. The land is so flat at Taku that it is difficult for a stranger to detect the entrance to the river. There are two anchorages, an outer and inner. The former extends from the Customs Junks to three miles outside the Bar, seaward; the latter from Liang-kia-yuan on the south to the Customs Jetty, Tz'chu-lin, on the north. The village is a poor one, possessing few shops, no buildings of interest except the forts, and the only foreign residents are the Customs employés, some pilots, and the members of the Vice-Consular establish- ment. A British Vice-Consul is stationed at Taku and receives the papers of all British sailing vessels bound for Tientsin as well as Taku; steamers retain theirs until arrival at Tientsin.

　　　Taku is memorable on account of the engagements that have taken place between its forts and the British and French naval forces. The first attack was made on the 20th May, 1858, by the British squadron under Sir Michael Seymour, when the forts were passed and Lord Elgin proceeded to Tientsin, where on the 26th June he signed the famous Treaty of Tientsin. The second attack, which was fatally unsuccessful, was made by the British forces in June, 1859. The third took place on the 21st August, 1860, when the forts were captured and the booms placed across the river destroyed, and the British ships sailed triumphantly up to Tientsin. From t'o description of the place in "The Treaty Ports of China," we gather that the water n the bar ranges from about two to fourteen feet at the Spring tides. The Cair name of the bar is Lau-kiang-sha. At certain states of the tide, steamers are obli to anchor outside until there is sufficient water to cross, but they are seldom detained very long. Towards the end of autumn it sometimes happens that the river is so low that vessels drawing over seven feet of water are unable to get up to tsin, but this is by no means a common occurrence. The river and the northern the gulf are generally frozen in about the 9th December, and few vessels attemp. an entry after the end of November. The ice breaks up, as a rule, about the second week in March.

TIENTSIN.

Tientsin is situated at the junction of the Grand Canal with the Peiho river in lat. 39 deg. 3 min. 55 sec. N. and long. 117 deg. 3 min. 55 sec. E. It is distant from Peking by river about 80 miles. It was formerly only a military station, but toward the close of the 17th century it became a place of some importance. The walled portion is small compared with the suburbs, the circumference of the walls being only a little over three miles. The principal trade is carried on in the suburbs. The purely native city has the reputation of being exceptionally dirty, and the stench from open drains in and about the city is said to be the cause of a high rate of mortality there. There are a number of soap-boiling works in the neighbourhood, and the smell that arises from them is most disagreeable.

A number of foreigners live in the suburbs of the native city, but the concession is situated about a mile and a half farther down on the south bank of the river.

Tientsin will always be famous for the Treaty signed by Lord Elgin in a temple since called the Treaty Temple, or Elgin's Joss-house, ou the 26th June, 1856, and known as the Treaty of Tientsin. The port is also infamously notorious fcr the massacre of the French Sisters of Charity and other foreigners on the 21st June, 1870, by a Chinese mob, under circumstances of shocking brutality.

There is a fair foreign trade done at Tientsin compared with the other open ports. When the port was first opened, it is said that money was picked up very quickly by the few merchants then on the scene. In course of time, however, the Chinese began to make headway, and they have the trade now pretty well in their own bands. A recent Customs' report speaks of one great advantage that natives here bave over foreign competitors. The former "purchase their stocks in Shanghai when there is a favourable market, rarely it ever insure their goods, and by selling in small quan- tities, and constituting themselves their own salesmen, at once procure ready buyers, and save the standing commission to which the compradores of foreigners are entitled."

The export trade of Tientsin is very small compared with the import. Cotton is cultivated in the locality, and some years ago great expectations were entertained concerning it. Coal, it is believed, will eventually be exported in large quantities. The Tea exported goes principally to Russia and Siberia, viâ Kiacbla. In 1877, 214,230 piculs were exported in this way. Opium to the extent of 4,026 piculs was imported in 1877, as compared with 3,606 piculs in 1876. The total revenue of the port in 1877 was Tls. 322,684; in 1876, Tls. 322,500. The population of Tientsin is estimated at 950,000.

PEKING.

　　　　Tue present capital of China was formerly the Northern capital only, as its name denotes, but it is now really the metropolis of the Contra' Kingdom. Peking is situated on a sandy plain 13 miles S.W. of the Pei-bo rives, and about 110 miles from its mouth, in latitude 39.54 N. and longitude 116.27 E. or neary on the parallel of Napies. A canal connects the city with the Pei-no. Peking is ill adapted by situa tion to be the capital of a great Empie, nor is it in a position to become a great Damufacturing or industrial contre, The products of all parts of China naturally find their way to the seat o: Government, but it gives little but bullion in return.

the

　　　　From. Dr. Dennys's description of Peking we quote the following brief historical sketch: "The city formerly existing on the site of the southern prion of Peking was the capital of the Kingd m of Ya. About 222 B.C., this Kingdom was over- thrown by the Chin dynasty and the seat of Government was removed elsewhere. Taken from the Chins by the Kheiluns about 936 A.D., it was some two years after- wards made the southern capital of that people. Tu Kin dynasty subdni Khaitans, in their turn took possession of the capital, calling it the Western Residence.' About A.D. 1151, the fourth sovereign of the Kens transferred the court thitser, and named it the Central residence. In 1215, it was captured by Genghis Khan. In 1264, Kublai Khan fixed his residence there, giving it the title of Chung- tu, or Central residence, the people at large generally calling it Shun-tien-fu. În 1267 A.D., the city was transferred 3 li ( me mile) to the North of its then site, and was then called Ta-tu-the Great Residence.' The old portion became what is now known as the Chinese city' and the terms Northern' and 'Suthern city, or more cominouly nei-cheng (within the wall) and wai-cheng (without the wali), came into The native Emperors who succeede the Margol dynasty did not, however, coutinu to make Peking the seat of Government. The court was shortly afterwar ls removed to Nauking, which was considered the chief city of the Empire until, in 1421, Yung Lo, the 3rd Emperor of the Ming dynasty, again held his court at Peking, since which date it has remained the capital of China."

The present city of Peking is divided into two portions, the Northern or Tartar city and the Southern or Chinese. The former is being gradually encroached upon by the Chinese, and the purely Manchu section of the capital will soon be very limited.

PEKING.

The southern city is almost exclusively occupied by Chinese. The general shape of Pking may be roughly represented by a square placed upon an obloug, the former stauding for the Tartar and the latter for the Chinese city. The whole of the capital is, of course, walled. The walls of the Tartar city are the strongest. They average 50 feet in height and 40 in width, and are buttressed at intervals of about 60 yards. The parapets are loop-holed and crenelated. They are faced on both sides with brick, the space between being filled with earth and concrete. Each of the gateways is surmounted by a three-storied pagoda. The walls of the Chinese city are about 30 feet in height, 25 feet thick at the base, and 15 feet wide on the terre plein. The total circumference of the walls round the two cities slightly exceeds twenty miles.

The Tartar city consists (Dr. Williams tell us) of three enclosures, one within the other, each surrounded by its own wall. The innermost, called Kiu-ching or Prohibited City, contains the Imperial Palace and its surrounding buildings; the second is occupied by the several offices appertaining to the Government and by private residences of officials; while the outer consists of dwelling houses, with shops in the chief avenues. The Chinese city is the business portion of Peking, but it presents few features of interest to the tight-seer, while the enclosure known as the Prohibited City is, as its title denotes, torbidden to all foreign visitors. The numerous temples, the walls, the Imperial Observatory, the Foreign Legations, and the curio shops are the chief attractions to the tourist. The population of Peking is not accurately known, but according to a Chinese estimate, which is probably slightly in excess, it is 1,300,000, of whom 900,000 reside in the Tartar and 400,000 in the Chinese city. There is no direct foreign trade with P.king, and the small foreign population is made up of the members of the various legations, the Maritime Cu toms establishment, the professors at the College of Peking, and the missionary body.

NEWCHWANG.

Newchwang is the most northerly port in China open to foreign trade. It is situated in the province of Shing-king, in Manchuria. It is known by the natives as Ying-tz, and lies about thirteen miles from the mouth of the river Liao, which falls into the Gult of Liao-tung, a continuation of the Gult of Pechili.

Before the port was opened, comparatively little was known of the place. Situated in a wild region, the greater part of which is little else but a wilderness, it

was never visited by outsiders. The natives in the outer districts partake of the primitive character of their surroundings, and divided into tribes they mostly lead a wandering life. The word Ying-tz means military station, and that was the only use formerly made of the piace. Between the years 1858 and 1860, the British fleet assem- bled in Ta lien-wan Bay, and early in 1861 the foreign settlement was established. The town of Newchwang itself is Cistant from Ying-tz about thirty miles, and is a sparsely populated and unimportant place.

　　　　The country about Newchwang is bare and desolate, and in sailing up the river one encounters anything but a pleasant prospect. Ying-tz is surrounded by marshes, and the land under cultivation produces principally Beans. The river is closed by ice for more than three months every year, during which period the residents are cut off entirely from the outer world.

The chief articles of trade of the port are Beans and Bean-cake, 1.439,062 piculs of the former and 792,166 piculs of the latter being exported in 1877, with 4,947 piculs of Bean Oil. The trade in Beans and Bean-cake shows a pretty steady increase during the last twelve years. The net quantity of Opium imported in 1877 was 1,098 piculs as against 2,303 piculs in 1876 and 896 in 1875. The quantity of Opium imported has with the exception of 1876 steadily decreased for some years. The total revenue of the port for 1877 amounted to 'T'le. 237,269, as against Tls. 257,221 in 1876. The population of the place is estimated at 60,000.

NAGASAKI.

Nagasaki is a city of great antiquity, and in the early days of European inter- course with the Far East was the most important seat of the foreign trade with Japan. It is admirably situated on the south-western coast of the island of Kiusbiu. A melancholy interest attaches to the neighbourhood as the scene of the cxtinc- tion of Christianity in the kingdom and the extermination of the professors of that religion in 1637. Near the harbour lies the celebrated island of Pappenberg, where thousands of Christian martyrs were thrown over the high cliff rather than go through the form of trampling on the cross. Not far from Nagasaki is also the village of Mogibay, where 37,000 Christians suffered death in defending themselves against the forces sent to sub iue them. When the Christian relig.on was crushed and the foreigners expelled, to the Dutch alone was extended the privilege of trading with Japan, and they were confined to a small patch of ground at Nagasaki called Desima, the monotony of their life being broken only by the yearly arrival and departure of the one or two ships in which the trade between Japan and the West was at that time carried on. By the treaty of 1858, Nagasaki was one of the ports opened to British trade on the 1st July in the following year. On entering the harbour of Nagasaki no stranger

can fail to be struck with the admirable situation of the town and the beautiful panorama of billy scenery opened to his view. The harbour is a landlocked inlet deeply indented with small bays, about three miles long with a width varying from half a mile to a mile. The native town is on the eastern side of the harbour and is about two miles long by about three-quarters of a mile in extreme width. The foreign settlement adjoins the nat ve town on the south side. The chief mercantile houses are situated on the bund facing the harbour, bind which are a few streets running parallel with it, and there are a number of private residences on the bill side. There are English and Roman Catholic churches an l a commodious club. The climate of Nagasaki is mild an·l salubrious, but in summer it is hot during the day by reason of its geographical position in a hollow surrounded by hills.

After the opening of the port the trade for several years stea lily developed, but the Consular reports for the last few years show a continuous decline. Mr. Consul Flowers in his report for 1876 speaks of roads as being the great requ.rement to connect the port with the traffic of the neighbouring districts, but, he says, the want of roads, although it might account for a slow development, or even for a stationary e ndition of trade, can scarcely be accepted as a reason for the continual ani lamentable falling off which has been shown of late years. This decline he ascribes to the impoverishment caused by a too severe drain of funds towards the central government. The country people in this portion of Japan, though pretty well off, so far as actual necessaries are concerned, are not rich, having little profitable outlet for the surplus productions; their available tunds are, therefore, soon absorbed, and the heavy land tax imposed upon the populat.on is much fel, and more so, doubtless since its collection in money instead of in kind, as former. In 1878 there were indications of an improvement in the tra le of the port, but there are no figures available as yet to show to what extent.

　　The chief articles of import are cotton and woollen manufactures. The principa! articles of exports are coal, tea, camphor, rice, vegetable wax, tobacco, and dried fish. There are several productive coal mines on the islands near Nagasaki, of which the Takas ma mine, whc. is under European management, is the most important. Mr. Flowers says the probabilities are that one vast coal-field exists under the sea

running from the peninsula of Nomo towards Matsushima and Hirado, and whe this field is entered by safe means, through the overlaying islands, an enormną ,extent of coal will be available.

The value of the foreign import trade of Nagasaki during the year 1877 $1,578,169, and that of the foreign export trade, $2,078,816. The population Nagasaki in 1876 was 17.412. The number of foreign res dents, as given in th Consular report for 187, was 804, of whom 566 were Chinese, 113 British, American, and the rest of various nationalities.

KOBE (HIOGO).

Kobe is the foreign port of the adjacent city of Hingo, and was opened to foreign trade in 1868. It is finely situated at the gate of the far-fame Inland Sea. The harbour is good and affords safe anchorage for vessels of almost any s ze. Toe town, which is in the province of Settsu, is distant only sixteen miles from Osaka, with which city it is connected by rail. This line, which has been extended to Kioto, a distance of 27 miles from Osaka, was formally opened to traffic along its whole length by the Mikado on the 5th February, 1877, and has since been worked with freedom and regularity. The connection of Osaka with Hiogo by rail has naturally tended to centralise trade at the port of shipment. Among the exports, tea, tobacco, camphor, copper, vegetable wax, and fans take the lead. The value of the foreign import trade for 1877 was $4,313,641; that of the exports $4,518,570. These figures compare favourably with those of 1876, when the value of the imports was $3,748,967, and that of the exports $3,401,230. The quantity of tea shipped from Hiogo in 1877 was 8,789,627 lbs., all of which went to the United States of America. The popula- tion of Hiogo, as given by the last census, was 204,000. The foreign residents in the port in 1877 numbered 606, of whom 296 were Chinese, 185 Nitish, 47 German, and 33 American.

OSAKA.

Osaka is the second city in Japan in point of size and commercial importance, and has not inaptly been termed the Venice of Japan, owing to the manner in which it is intersected by canals. It is situated in the province of Settsu, and is built on the banks of the river Ajikawa, about five miles from the sea. The river is only navigable for small vessels, and on the opening of the railway to Hiogo the foreign trade of Osaka commenced to decline. Almost all the foreign firms in the latter city have removed to Hiogo, and there is now not a single British firm in Osaka. The city is the seat of the provincial Government, which is called Fu-cho, in eontradistinction to the other provincial Governments, which are termed Kencho. Osaka is the seat of numerous industries, and the Imperial Mint is located there. In 1876 coins to the value of $6,613,405 were struck at this Mint, in 1877 to the value of $5,701,555, and a continuous supply of yen (dollars) is issued from the establishment, which are of similar weight and fineness to the Mexican dollar, but owing to Chinese combination they only obtain currency in China and Hongkong at a discount. The population of the city is given as 549,280. The value of the imports for 1877 was $518,256, and that of the exports $175,340, showing a recovery from 1876, when the imports had fallen to $406,089, and the exports to $99,722.

YOKOHAMA.

Yokohama is the principal Treaty port of Japan, and was opened to foreign trade in July, 1859. It is situate on the Bay of Yokohama, a small bay on the Western side of the Gulf of Yedo, in lat. 35 deg. 26 min. 11 sec. N., and long. 139 deg. 39 min. 20 sec., in the island of Hondo, and is distant about eighteen miles from the capital, with which it is connected by a line of railway. The settlement stands on what was originally a swamp, and the town having sprung up only since the site was selected for a treaty prt instead of the little town of Kanagawa-possesses few attractions for the visitor. The scenery round, however, is hilly and pleasing, and on a clear day the snow-crowned summit of Fusiyama, a volcanic mountain 13,000 feet high-celebrated in Japanese literature and depicted on so many native works of art--is clearly visible. Yokohama is compactly built of low houses with tiled roofs. The town is divided into two arly equal parts, the westera half being occupied by the foreigu settlement. Beyond the plain on which the town is built rises a sort of semicircle of low hills called "The Bluff," which is thickly dotted with handsome villas and dwelling houses in various styles of architecture. Along the water-front of the foreign set lement runs a fine broad street called the Bund, on which, facing the water, stand many of the principal houses and hotels. The streets in the foreign settlement are well paved, kerbed, and drained. There are Anglican, French Catholic, Union Protestant, and native Mission Churches in the settlement. Yokohama has greatly increased in importance of late years, but the export trade does not make satisfactory progress. There are three daily papers published in the port, namely, the Japan Gazette, the Japan Herald, and the Japan Daily Advertiser. The Japan Mail is published weekly.

The entire population of Yokohama is about 50,000. The number of foreign residents in 1877 was 2,501, of whom 1,142 were Chinese, 570 British, 189 American, 160 German, 131 French, 71 Dutch, 62 Portuguese, 58 Russians, and the remainder of various natioralities.

The imports into Yokohama consist chiefly of cotton and woollen goods. In 1877, according to the British Consul's report, the value of the different classes of imports was as follows: Cotton manufactures, $7,027,237; woollen manufactures, $2,890,382; mixed cotton and woollen, $1,056,048; metals, $1,157,078; arms and ammunition, $355,465; miscellaneous foreign, $4,391,298; miscellaneous local, $2,612,977; total $19,490,485. The total value of the exports was $15,628,337. Silk is the most valuable of the exports, being set down at $10,043,413. The value of the tea exported was $2,613,188. The total export of raw silk during the season from 1st July, 1877 to same date, 1878, only half of which period is covered by the Consular returns, was, according to the returns of the Chamber of Commerce, 22,024 bales, of which 9,305 were for England, 10,064 for France, 1,411 for America, and 1,244 for other countries. Ths export of tea during the season from 1st May, 1877, to same date 1878, was 14,587,721 İbs., all for America, with the exception of 74,615 lbs. for England.

The value of the imports for the eight months of 1878 ending 31st October was $17,032,250, and that of the exports for the same period $9,022,713.

TOKIO.

　　　The capital of Japan [until the Restoration called Yedo] is situated at the north of the Bay of Yedo, has a circumference of 24 miles, and covers a surface of Dearly 36 square miles. The Okawa, or Great River, divides the city into two parts: the eastern part is called Horjo; the western division bears more especially the name of Tokio.

+

Tokio, as viewed from the bay, is a very charming city. undulating ground, and covered with fine old trees, it spreads out under a sky which Situated on has well been compared to the sky of Italy. The many large temples with their great roofs, surmounted by gilled globes, and covered with metalled plates, produce a pleasing effect. The pagodas, the large daimio palaces, the long line of well- constructed quays, and the fortifica ions combined present an imposing coup-d'œil, Some of the enchantment which distance leuds, however, vanishes on a cl ser acquaintance. The temples disappear behind the trees with which they are surrounded; the palaces resemble scarcely anything better than large fire-proof warehouses or inediocre villas; and the dwellings of the merchants and other citizens, though extremely clean, are not imposing. There arɔ some handsome shops, but no stately buildings, s'atues, or monuments. The streets and quarters belonging to the nobles are almost deserted; the commercial quarter, though bustling and animated, looks neither rich nor attractive. Though not repelling, Tokio does not deserve the reputation for splendour and magnificence which has been given to it by some writers.

　　　Honjo covers a surface of about five square miles. It is an island, the boundaries of which are: South, the Bay of Yedo; W st, the Okawa; North, a large canal; and East, a river running parallel with the Okawa. This island is traversed from north to south by four canals, and from east to west by three large and a great number of small canals. They cross each other at right angles, and divide Honjo into eight principal districts. The districts Nos. 1, 2, 3, and 4 contain in their northern part more than thirty temples, a'l surrounded by cxtensive gardens. Westward, along the banks of the Okawa, are several large store-houses, which belong to the Government; and on the banks of the canals are tound the habitations of the merchants, workmen, and fishermen. The largest portion of these four districts, however, is occupied by the palaces of the nobles. The districts No. 5 and No. 6 contain almost exclusively residences of nobles, many of which have now been con-

verted into Public Offices and built in European styles. Besides these there are thirteen temples, among which the temple of Goh aku Rakan (temple of the 500 images) is particularly venerated and deserves special attention. It consists of two large old buildings which lave suffered severely from earthquakes; a part of the idols belonging to Gehiaku Rakan have been removed into an adjacent store-house. The district No. 7 contains about twenty temples, whose gardens and out buildings cover nearly half of its entire area. Among these temples is that of Hachiman, the Japaneso "God of War." The rest of this district is occupied by the governmental stores and warehouses and the dwellings of citizens. The district No. 8, besides many buildings belonging to the Government and to the nobles, contains one large temple and a good many private houses. Honjo is connected with Tokio by four great wooden bridges of very simple but solid construction. They are called, commencing on the north, (1) Adsuma-Basbi, (2) Liogoku- Bashi, (3) Ohashi, and (4) Yeitai-Bashi. The largest of these is Ohashi, or Great Bridge, its length being 350 yards. Honjo is a very quiet part of the capital. The quay, on the banks of the Okawa, forms a spacious and handsome street, and may be especially recommended to a traveller who has only a few days tɔ spend in Tokio. In passing along the quay, he will see across the stream sev ral fine temples and great buildings, which stand on the western bank of the Great River, and he may get at the same time a very good idea of the animated river-lite of the Okawa, whose waters are always covered with junks and boats of all descriptions.

　Tokio proper is divided into three portions: Siro, or the Castle; Soto Siro; or Outside of the Castle; and Midzi, Town and Suburbs. Siro, or the Imperial Castle, has a circumfererce of nearly five miles. It contains the palace of the Vikado, the palaces of the members of the Council of State, and the Public Offic‹ s There is not a single public temple in the Siro. The space which contains the im, er al palaces is surrounded by high walls and by several canals. There are emeen public bridges in the Siro, and a multitude of private bridges, for almost every palace is surrounded by a moat and communicates with the main road by sever little bridges. The imperial palaces exhibit that simplicity, both within and without, which distinguishes all Japanese buildings except the temples. The public walks round the castle are very agreeable and picturesque. The finest part of these walks is that on the banks of the principal canal, which is covered with thousands of aquatic birds, and surrounds the fine old walls of the imperial palaces.

give 'ces

　Outside of the Siro, or Castle, to the westward, there is a hill (Atago gama) which every foreigner should visit for the purpose of getting an idea of reat extent of Tokio. It looks less like a city than a vast assemblage of parks and villas. In certain districts there may be seen regular streets, but by far the greater part of the ground is covered with palaces and numerous temples, surrounded by gardens. The large temples are generally very fine edifices. As regards t of the nobles, they are long buildings, of a single high storey, ordinar wast ed, and look like good sized warehouses, having nothing remarkabl architecture. The large doors of these babitations are sometimes orca good carvings; but usually they are made of plain wood, covered with suites of copper, forming various designs, such as the proprietor's coat of arms. The interior of these palaces is simplicity itself, and the beauty and fineness of the mats, carvings and paintings, are the only points of distinction between the houses of the princes and those of ordinary citizens.

　The Soto Siro has a circu'nference of nearly ten miles. It is sepad from the Siro by the canal which surrounds the latter; from Honjo by the Oka a; and from the rest of the city by a large canal, called Chori. It is united to Siro by eighteen bridges; to Honjo by the three bridges, Liogoku-Bashi, Ohashi and Yeitai-Bashi; and to the rest of Tokic by thirty bridges. In the interior of Soto Siro there are about twenty more bridges, among which is the celebrated Nihon Bashi or Bridge of Japan. This is regarded as the centre of the Empire, inasmuch as all geographical distances are counted from it. Of the five square miles which form

the total area of Soto Siro, about threo are occupied by nobles' palaces. The fifteen temples situated in this part of Tokio cover a surface of one square kilometre.

The remaining space of Soto Siro is very densely inhabited, and may be called the commercial district of Tokio. This interesting district is situated on the east of the castle and has the form of a parallelogram. It is traversed in its whole length by the Tokai do, (the main-road of Japan,) and communicates by 15 bridges with the rest of Tokio. Of these, two are on the west, communicating with the Siro; five on the south; five on the east; and three on the north side of the city. The middle one of the three northern bridges is the Nihon Bashi. The commercial district contains five longitudinal and twenty-two transverse streets, crossing each other at right angles, and forming seventy-eight districts. In this quarter, and in the three adjacent precincis, north, east, and south of it, there are neither palaces nor temples. It is in this part of Tokio that the principal commerce of the city is concentrated; these streets are very animated. At the points where the Tokai-do enters and leaves Tokio are situated the two places of capital execution. Among the fifteen temples to be found in Soto Siro, is the temple of Monzeki, the greatest Tera of Tokio; and the temple of Sanne, one of the principal Mias of the capital. Tera is the name given to the Buddhist temples, aud Mia is the term for the temples of the old religion of Japan.

Midzi is the general name for the whole of Tokio not included in S.ro aud Soto-Siro. It has a circumference of 24 miles and covers a surface of nearly 29 square miles. Deducting from this the area of Honjo, there is still to be described a surface of 27 square miles. This may be divided into three parts, which may be called respectively, North, South. and West, viewing them from the castle as a stand-point. The part North of the Castle covers a surface of about 11 square miles and extends northward to the Okawa. This northern suburb is rem .rxable for the number and extent of the temples which are found there, and which cover a surface of not less than 3 square miles. The mausoleum of the Tycoons alone, surrounded by thirty-six temples, occupies a space of about a quarter of a square mile. Among the other temples of the northern suburb there must be mentio ed these of Quanon, of Amida, of Confucius, and of Kanda, the tutelary deity of Tokio.

The temple of Quanon is one of the most beautiful, most venerated, and most frequented temples in Japan. The avenue leading to the temple is lined with shops, in which are exposed all sorts of articles, religious and profane, to be sold to the numberless pilgrims who every year visit the temple. The temple is elevated about 20 feet from the grouud. A grand flight of steps gives access to the interior. There is a chief altar at the extremne end of the temple, with side chapels at its right and left, containing a great number of wooden images, which, with the "glory" round their heads, resemble the images of Catholic saints. The interior of the temple is not very large, and is not so conspicuous for cleanli.. ss as most of the public buildings in Japan. At the right of the temple there is a fine old Pagoda, and near it two colossal stone statues. The buildings which are called the Temple of Confucius used to be the University of Tokio, but this has been superseded since the Restoration by the Ko-gaku-rio, Kai Séi-gaku-ko, and other universities in which Foreign instructors are employed.

　　A great part of the remaining area forming the district North of the Castle is covered by paddy fields, in the midst of which rise picturesquely situated houses. There are also extensive pleasure gardens, such as Askia-yama, and neat little villages. The surface covered by paddy fields and pleasure gardens may be estimated at 44 square miles. In this district, too, are situated the great theatre of Tokio and Yosiwara, or the court of public women. The part West of the Castle contains 50 temples, and a great number of nobles' palaces. The part on the South of the Castle, with an average surface of 17 square miles, contains about sixty temples. The most remarkable among them is the 'T'era of Meguro. In this part of Tokio is situated the old Tycoon Mausoleum, surrounded by several temples.

Several great fires have during the last few years swept Tokio, more especially that of April, 1872, which led to great improvements and the widering of the streets

TOKIO.

Rows of fiue houses in brick and stone, and new bridges, in many cases of iron or stone, have been built, and the city nas in many portious been thoroughly modernised. The streets are generally broad and well kept. The environs are very picturesque and offer a great variety of pleasant walks or 1ides. Foreigners cannot do better than spend their leisure hours in rambling over the country. The finest scenery is at the northern and western sides cf the city where the country is surrounded by beutiful hills, from which there is a distant view of the noble mountains of Hakone, while beyond rises in solitary grandeur the towering peak of Fusi-yama. The population of Tokio was, according to the census of 1877, 1,036,771. The foreign residents number some 300, a large proportion of whom are in the employ of the Japanese Government.

A foren newspaper called the Tokio Times is published weekly in Tokio. The native Press is represented by about twenty newspapers, several of which are dailies. Among them the Nichi Nichi Shimbun, the Hochi Sh mbun, the Choya Shimbun, and the Akebono Shimbun take the lead. The Da-jo-Kan is the Government Gazette of Tokio. Several others are class organs, and one journal, the Musumé Shimbun, is the advocate of woman's rights.

NIIGATA.

Niigata is situated on the west coast of Japan, and in the southern part of the province of Echigo, at the mouth of the river Shinano-gawa. Though well located for trade it has y elded the most disappointing results of all the Treaty ports of Japan. Foreign goods find their way to Niigata in considerable quantities, but since the opening of the port no direct foreign trade has been developed there. Even the small coast trade carried on for a time in foreign bottoms has ceased, and is now conducted in native steamers and other craft. The smaliness of foreign interests scarcely justify the expenses attendant on its maintenance as an open port. Trade might, however, be attracted if the port could be rendered practicable for the admission of foreign steamers.

The town, which is one of the cleanest and best laid-out in Japan, has been materially improved within the last few years by the widening of the canals and streets, the latter of which are now lighted with petroleum obtained in the district. New Law Courts, Post-office, and Schools have been built, and the town is connected by telegraph with Tokio and other cities of the Empire. A Government Hospital attended by a European doctor, and a large English school un ler English and American masters, have been established bere. A steam rice mill has been start d and some fresh industries have been commenced. Niigata is still famed for the number and beauty of its women. The population of the town is 40,000.

The value of the exports for 1877 was $24,000. There were no imports in foreign bottoms. As stated above, the whole of the trade is carried on in native craft.

HAKODATE.

　　　This, the most northerly of the treaty ports of Japan, is situated in the south of Yess on the Straits of Tsugar, which divide that island from Hondo. The port lies in latitude 41 deg. 47 min. 8 sec. N., and longitude 140 deg. 45 min. 34 sec. E., and the barbour s n arly land-locked. The surrounding country is hilly, volcanic, and picturesque, but the town itself possesses few attractions, and consists mainly of one long street of single-storied houses, the distinguishing feature of which is the roof made of thin wood shingle kept on by quantities of flat stones. The foreign concession has never been built upon, the few foreign residents in the port having taken up their quarters in Japanese buildings. A row of fiue temples, with high picturesque roofs, occupying higher ground than the rest of the town, ar the most conspicuous buildings. The climate of Hakodate is healthy and bracing. The hottest monto is August, but the thermometer then rarely rises above 90 degrees Fahr.; in the winter it sometimes sinks to 18 degre: 8. The mean temperature throughout the year is about 48 degrees.

A

The foreign trale of the port is small and bas never been important. The foreign shipping is annually decreasing and the direct imports have fallen off largely. The imports for 1877 were nil, compared with $27,308 in 1876. The exports for 1877 amounted to $441,655 compared with $776,962 for 1876, showing a decrease of $335,307. The agricultural resources of Yesso are rapidly developing under the auspices of the Kaitakushi or Colonization Department. The rich pasture lands are well adapted for breeding cattle. In the valuable and extensive fisheries on the coasts, however, the chief exports of the future from Hakodate are to be looked for. Increasing quantities of dried fish are exported annually. The mineral resources of Yesso, said to be large, may also some day yield a valuable addition to the exports of this port. Hakodate is connected with the capital by telegraph. The population of the town is about 11,000. The number of foreign residents in 1877 was 84, of whom 49 were Chinese, 23 British, and the remainder German, Russian, American, French, and Danish.

THE PHILIPPINES.

The Philippines are a rich group of islands, situate between lat. 5 and 22 N. and long. 123 and 133 E., and held by Spain under military occupation. The islands are over five hundred in number and contain an area of 52,647 English square miles, with a population, in 1876, of 6,173,632 souls. They are divided into 27 provinces, 13 of which are on the Isle of Luzon, 4 on the Isle of Negros, 2 on Panay, and 3 on the Isle of Mindanao.

The

Early in the sixteenth century the celebrated navigator Magellan unfolded to the King of Spain his brilliant project of reaching the Spice Islands by rounding the southern extremity of the American contin nt, and, having been furnished with men and ships, he set sail. Having passed through the straits which bear his name he reached the islands, to which the name of the Philippines was afterwards given, in the spring of 1521, after a troublesome voyage of over eighteen months. foundation of Spanish authority in the archipelago was then laid, but the illustrious navigator who first took possession in the name of his Royal Master lost his life in an attack upon one of the islands a month later and the expedition, reduced to one ship, returned. Other expeditions were dispatched, some of which proved fruitless, but in 1565 the islands were formally annexed to the Crown of Spain, and in 1571 the city of Manila, which has been the capital ever since, was founded.

　　　The early history of the Philippines is a record of continual trouble. Conflicts between the civil and ecclesiastical authorities led to internal contentions, while both Portugal and the Netherlands coveted these rich possessions and harassed the Spaniards. Attacks were also made at different points by powerful Chinese piratical fleets. In 1762 the capital was taken by the English, but was restored to Spain two years afterwards for a ransom of £1,000,000. The ransom, however, has never been exacted.

　　　　After the discovery of the islands ecclesiastics flocked to them in large numbers, and, undisturbed by the attacks on Spanish authority, the work of converting the natives was carried on with great vigour. The clergy at the present time number 1,962, and most of the natives brought under subjection profess the Roman Catholic religion. In the Philippines there has been little of that cruelty to the aboriginal population which so often characterises the process of colonization, and the natives are in general contented and well conducted, the priests exercising the almost unbounded influence they possess with great effect in the preservation of order. In the inaccessible mountainous parts of the islands there are still tribes of unsubdued savages, but their number is small and gradually diminishing. In the last census returns the number of natives not subject to the civil government and paying no tribute is given as 602,853, while the number of natives paying tribute is returned as 5,501,355. There are a considerable number of mestizos or half-castes, some of which are the children of Spanish fathers by native mothers and some the children of Chinese fathers. The following is the latest (1876) census return :-

THE PHILIPPINES.

　The climate of the Philippines varies little from that of other places in the same latitude. The range of the thermometer during the year is from a little over sixty degrees to about ninety. The rainy season usually lasts six months and during this time inundations of rivers are frequent and travelling in the interior almost impossible. Long continued droughts, however, sometimes occur, when the ground becomes parched and the crops are utterly destroyed. Husbandry also suffers from the ravages of locusts, which will sometimes almost entirely denude a whole province of herbage. The principal part of the group comes within the range of the typhoons, and terrific storms are of frequent occurrence. The islands are also the centre of great volcanic action. "The destructive ravages and changes produced by earth. quakes," says Sir John Bowring, writing in 1859, "are nowhere more remark- able than in the Philippines. They have overturned mountains, they have filled up valleys, they have desolated extensive plains; they have opened passages for the sea into the interior, and from the lake into the sea. There are many tradi- tional stories of these territorial revolutions, but of late disasters the records are trustworthy. That of 1796 was sadly calamitous. In 1824 many churches in Manila were destroyed, together with the principal bridge, the barracks, great numbers of private houses; and a chasm opened of nearly four miles in length. The inhabitants all fled into the fields, and six vessels in the port were wrecked. The number of victims was never ascertained. In 1828, during another earthquake, the vibration of the lamps was found to describe an arch of four and a half feet; the huge corner- stones of the principal gate of the city were displaced; the great bells were set ringing. It lasted b. tween two and three minutes, rent the walls of several churches and other buildings, but was not accompanied by subterranean noises, as is usually the case." In 1863 another very disastrous earthquake occurred.

　The chief articles of produce are sugar, hemp, and tobacco. In 1876 the value of the imports was $11,987,162, and that of the exports $14,837,796. The returns of the carrying trade show the curious fact of the carrying of imports being nearly monopolised by the flag of one nation, while that of the exports is tolerably equally distributed. This is accounted for by the differential duties in favour of goods im- ported in Spanish bottoms, most of the imports being therefore carried under the Spanish flag. The vessels which carry the xports arrive for the most part in ballast from Hongkong or other ports in the East where they have discharged a cargo.

MANILA.

　　　　Manila, the ca ital of the Pilippin s, is situated on the island of Luzon, at the mouth of the river Pasig, which empties itself into the Bay of Manila. The city was founded in 1571. In 1645 it was almost entirely destroyed by an earthquake, in which upwards of three hundred lives were lost. In 1863 a great part of the city was again destroyed from the same cause, and the inhabita ts are in constant fear of these visitations. Tue dwelling-houses are built with especial reference to safety under such circumstances, and, although, large, possess fow pretensions to architectural beauty. The streets, also, are narrow and but small attention has been devoted to securing shade by the growth of trees. There are several ancient churches which are worthy of notice. The cathedral, founded originally in 1578, has been several times destroyed by earthquakes and did not escape in 1863. It is now being re-built. The city and its suburbs contain a population of nearly 300,000 and are the seat of a considerable and yearly increasing commerce. The principal articles of export are hemp, sugar, tobacco, ci ars, coffe, and indigo, while in the imports cotton goods form the chief item. Only a small portion of the present city is enclosed within the walls. The anchorage is distant some three miles from the shores. The river presents a scene of great animation, being crowded with native craft, interspersed with vessels of foreign build. The passport system is in force and no one can enter or leave without previously obtaining a pass. Before landing passengers are obliged to pull alongside a Cu-tom-house guard boat stationed near the landing place to pre- vent smuggling. The garrison of Manila consists of the European and several native regiments. The police of the city is also under military discipline and is composed of natives.

A very low average of crime is said to exist, but the native classes are much addicted to gambling, an offence punishable by law, although the Government raps a large portion of its revenue from the sale of lottery tickets. A race meeting is held in the spring and usually good sport is afforded. The chief standing amuse- went is the opera, very gool companies being induced to visit the islands by the liberal patronage they receive. The orchestra is usually composed of natives, who possess a remarkably good ear for music. The principal theatre was burnt down on the 13th October, 1878, and is now being rebuilt. There are two daily papers, El Diario de Manila, published in the morning, and El Comercio, which appears in the evening. An attempt was made in 1878 to establish an illustrated journal, but after an existence of a few months it expired from lack of support. The hot season commences in March and continues until July, when the rains commence and continue to December, during which time the roads and streets get into a very bad condition. The maxi. mum annual rainfall r corded is 114 inches and the minimum 84 inches. The maxi- mum of the thermometer is about 92, with a range of ten degrees during the twenty- four hours, a cool sea breeze setting in at night and reducing the heat to an endur- able temperature for sleeping. According to the census of 1873 there were residing in Manila 250 foreigners of European origin, 4,189 European Spaniards, 15,157 Chinese, 46,C66 Chinese mestizos (or half-breeds), 3,849 Spanish mestizos, and 160,896 pure natives.

ILOILO.

This port, which is the chief town of the populous province of the same name in the island of Panay, is situate in lat. 10 deg. 48 min. W., near the south-eastern extremity of the island, close to the sea, on the border of the narrow channel formed by the opposite islan of Guimaras. The town is built principally on low marsby ground, par ly fronting the sea, and partly along the left bank of a creek, or inkt, which runs towards Jaro, and after describing a semicircle again meets the sea near Molo. Although the principal seaport and seat of the government of the province, Iloilo is much smaller than many towns in its vicinity. The harbour is well protected and the anchorage good, the island of Guimaras forming a sheltered passage. The depth of water on the bar at the entrance to the creek or river Iloilo is about fre fathoms at low water, but at a short distance within it decreases to fifteen feet and then deepens again. The country round Iloilo is very fertile and extensively cultivated. The chief articles of export are sugar, tobacco, sapanwood, rice, hides, hemp, and cattle. Iloilo is about 254 miles distant from Mauila.

This is an important port and city of the Philippines. It is the capital of the island of Cebu, aud ranks next to Iloilo among the ports of the Philippines. It was at one time the seat of the administration of revenue for the whole of the Bisayas, but this was removed to Manila in 1849. The trade of Cebu consists principally in sugar, hemp, and rice. There are also very valuable and extensive coal deposits in the island of Cebu, but the mines have not as yet been worked with any enterprise. The neighbouring islands of Negros and Bohol possess extensive sugar plantations, a large proportion of the produes of which finds its way to the port of Cebu for shipment.

SAIGON.

Saigon, the capital of French Cochin China, is situated on the Saigon river, a branch of the I onnai, in lat tude 10 deg. 50 min. N., and 104 deg. 22 min. longitude E. Saigon was conquered by the Franco-Spanish fleet on the 17th February, 1859, but Lower Cochin China, (compris ng the provinces of Giadinh, Bienhoa, and Mytho and the Islands of Pulo-Cerdor), was not definitely occupied until 1862, when it was formally surrendered by treaty; in 1867, three more provinces were conquered by the French and added to their possessions, viz., Chandoc, Hatien, and Vinhlong. The actual boundaries of French Cochin China now are: on the North the Kingdoms of Annam and Cambodia, on the East and South, the China Sea, on the West the Gulf of Siam and the Kingdom of Cambodia.

French Cochin China is divided into six large provinces comprising in all nineteen Inspections. Besides Sa gor, which is the capital of Cochin China and at the same time of the province of Giadinh, the other chief towns bear the names of their respective provinces, Bienhoa, Mytho, Chandoc, Vinhlong, and Hatien. The colony measures in breadth about 80 leagues and in length an average of 50 leagues; its population amounts to 1,500,000 inhabitants. The country resembles a vast plain with small hills on te West and some mountains on the East and North; the three highest are Batlen 884 metres, Baria 493 metres, and the Moï mcuntains 550 and 600 metres in height. The principal rivers are the two Naïce, the Saigon River, and the Bienhoa or Dounai river. The lower parts of French Coci in China are wrink'ed with small creeks or arroyos, giving easy and rapid communication to all parts of the country. Of late numerous canals have been opened. The n.agnificent river Mei- kong, which descends from the Thibetan mountains, after running through different territories crosses Cambodia, and enters into the lower provinces of French Cochin China by two rivers and empties itself into the China Sea by five large outlets called resp ctively Cua Eieu, Cha Balai, Cua Cochien, Cua Dinh-an, and Cua Batae.

The principal product of French Cochin China is rice. It is planted in almost every province except some of the Northern districts. At the present moment the country can produce from 7,000,000 to 9,000,000 piculs yearly, and a little over 5,000,000 piculs is annually exportel. After this important grain the principal products are:-sugar cane, mulberry tree, pepper, betel nut, cotton, tobacco, and maize; citina grass, sesauun, palma-christi, indigo, saffron, gum-la, sapan (dye-wood), and cinchona also exist in pretty large quantities, with several other minor productions. The principal salt pits are in the province of Baria. The forests contain large quantities of fine timber and abound with game of nearly every description, amongst which may be named elephants, rhinoceros, tigers, deer, wild boars, and elands, while amongst the feathered game the peacock, partridge, snipe, woodcock, jungle fowl or wild- cock, pheasant, &c., may be mentioned. The rivers and creeks swarm with fishes of every description and alligators abound in some.

In the chief towns of each province there is a citadel sufficiently garrisoned, and numerous military posts in the interior maintain and watch over the security of the inhabitants. The Annamese are a race devoted principally to agriculture; they are not so industrious as the Chinese and are indifferent traders. The Chinese hold the largest proportion of the trade in their hands. The revenue of the colony is about 15, 00,000 fr. yearly, and the expenditure is about equal to that sum. two principal sources of revenue are opium and spirits.

The

Saigon is situated about 40 miles from Cape St. James and is accessible to the largest vessels. Since its occupation by the French the climate has undergone a very favourable change, owing to different sanitary works in the town, such as drains, the filling up of pools, marshes, &c. The town presents a fine appearance, the roads and thoroughfares being broad and regular. Amongst the public buildings Government House is the most remarkable; several millions of francs have been spent upon its construction and decoration. The other prominent public buildings are the "Direction de l'Intérieur," the Treasury, the Post Office, the Land Office, Public Works Department, the Schools, and the Supreme Court. The Military

Hospital is a fine and handsome building, as are also the Arsenal, Barracks, and Artillery parc.

Saigon has two public gardens, the "Jardin de la Ville," which is maintained at the expense of the municipality, and the Botanical Garden. There is one large rice-mill in Saigon belonging to a European firm and two more in the town of Cholen, one of which belongs to a Chinese company. There are also two steam brick-yards, one in each town. Cholen is the granary of the colous and its commercial activity is enormous. A society called the "Nouvelle Espérance" as begun sugar-cane planting in the province of Giadinh, and it is believe that it will prove successful; a steam sugar-mill will shortly be erected on the plantation. Another society called the Société Agricole et Industrielle" is trying the cultivation of pepper, coffee, and tobacco on three different plantations. There is an iron floating dock and a new one is in course of construction. The population of Saigon may be estimated at about 20,000 inhabitants, chiefly Aunamese and Chinese. The town of Cholen, principally inhabited by Chinese traders, is three miles distant from Saigon, and its population may be set down at 50,000.

The M. M. steamers call twice a month at Saigon on their homeward and outward trips. Easy communication is afforde with the principal towns of the interior by the steamers of the firm of Roque, called " Messageries de Cochinchine." Their steamers are large and commodious, and ply to and fro regularly with cargo, passengers, and mails, and they are subsidized by the Government. One of the Company's largest boats plies regularly once a week from Saigon to Punom-penh (capital of Cambodia) and vice versa, calling on her way at Mytho, Vinhlong, and Sadec. All the principal towns of French Cochin China possess telegraphic com- munication, and a sub marine cable unites the colony with Singapore, Hongkong, &c. The postal organization of the colony is very complete and efficient. Cor- respondence can be sent daily to almost all parts of the country. The Courrier de Saigon, which is also the Government Gazette, and is published fortnightly, is the only paper in the colony.

Saigon is a free port; with the exception of opium, arms, and alcohol, all goods are imported and exported free of duty. In 1872, the arrivals of junks in the port of Saigon (coasting trade) amounted to 4,067, and 603 European vessels with an agre- gate tonnage of 284,140 tons frequented the port. The export of rice in 1872 reache 1 3,948,961 piculs, but since then it has increased considerably, sometimes reaching upwar is of 5,00,000 piculs. In 1878 the export by foreign goin vessels was upwards of 4,070,000 picul. The value of the imports yearly is about 70,000,000 franes, and that of the exports a similar amount.

CAMBODIA.

Cambodia, or the Kingdom of the Khmer, as it is called by the natives, extends from 101 deg. 30 m n. to 104 deg. 30 mm. longitude, and from 10 deg. 30 min. to 14 deg latitude. It was reduced to its pres nt proportions in 1860 by the annexation of its two richest provinces, Angeor and Battambang, to Sam.

Its area

ag

is about 62,000 square miles. It is bounded on the south-west by the Gulf of Sam, n the south-east by Frene's Cochin Coina, on the north by the Laos, aud on the north- west and west by Battam a g and Angcor. The noble rvr Mikong flows through the kingdom, and after passing through French Cochin Ch, em ties itself, by a number of mouths, into the sea. The Meikong is the great waterway of Cambodia, and, like the Nile in Egypt, lays the greater part of the country under water annually, greatly increasing its fertility. There are some other navigable rivers in the country, but none that compare with this "Great Father of Waters." The soil of Cambod'a is rich and pro luctive, and rice, pepper, ind go, cotton, tobiero, sugar, maize, and cardamons are cultivated. Coffee and spices of all sorts could be grown. Among woods, ebony, rose, sapan, pine, iron, and other valuable sorts exist, no less than eighty different kinds of timber being found in the forests. Iron of good quality bas been discovered and it is affirm that there are gold, silver, and lead wines in the mountains.

　Animal life is abun lant. Among others, the elephant, rhinoceros, tiger, buffalo, der of any speries, wild boar, and the monkey may be mentioned. Reptiles of every kind are to be found, fom the alligator to the lizard. Winged game of all sorts, including suip", woodcocks, pheasants, pa'owl, teal, partridges, and wild ducks swarm. Hares and rabbits are to be found everywhere. The stories o Cambodia are very good and salt fish forms one article of export.

　Cambodia was once a large and powerful stat", and proofs that it possessed a much bigher civilisation than now prevails are to be found in the architectural remnants of sormer grandeur. The noble ruins of the ancient city of Angcor are monu- ments of a much superior people to the feeble race which now inhabits the Kingdom. The Cambodians are closely allied to the Annames, whom they resemble both in features and customs. Polygamy is practised among them. The preva long religion is Bud- dhism. The people are apa'hetic and indolent and allow all the trade of the country to fall into the hands o Chinese, of whom there are about 100,000 in Cambodia. The entire population of the Kingdom is a little over 1,000,000.

　　The Government of Cambodia is an absolute monarchy, under French protection. The present King, Somdach Pra Maha Norodom, is forty two years of age and suc- ceeded his father King Ang Duong, who died in 1860. As in Siam, there is a Second King, Maha Oberak, brother to the King, but his title is purely nominal and his power equally so. King Norodom I. is intelligent and amiable. He has adopted European babits and mode of living, and is always ready to lend his countenance to improvements and enterprises calculated to promote the prosperity of the country.

Phnom-penh, the present capital of Cambodia and seat of the Government, is situated on the river Meikong, nearly in the heart of the Kingdom. The King's palace is a large building, and the portion devoted to his use is built and furnished in European style. It contains some fine apartm nts. Attached to the Palace, and inside the Palace walls, are the Hall of Justice, Audience Roon s, Treasury, Armoury, and some steam workshops and magazines. The Kirg possesses three small steamers, and several steam launches. His workshops are super ntended by European engineers and a European is in charge of the public works. Phnom-penh is improving under the present rule. Good roads are being made, and brick houses are gradually super- seding less durable structures. here is a strong iron bridge, and a telegraph office. Barracks are in course of construction. The Frenc': R presentative resides in the city and occupies a handsome building. The European firms have erected substantial and comodious premises. The population of the Phnom-penh is estimated at 35,000. Trade at present is limited, and the country generally is ent r ly undeveloped. It is shut out from the sea on all sides, and is completely subject to France.

HAIPHONG.

This, the shipping port for Hanoi, is situated in lat. 20 d g. 49 min. and long. 106 deg. 40 min. on the River Ba-can, a branch of the Soug-kei, about seven and a-half miles from its mouth. Vessels drawing 15 or 20 feet can anchor in mid- channel about a quarter of a mile from the shore, abreast of a creek cowmu cating with the Song-koi. At low water the channel is not more than one-fiftu of a mi.e in w.dth. The banks of the river are low and consist of alluviai mud, from which the new French Settlement has with g... 1. our been reclaimed. The port consists of two villages, which are wretchedly Belt, and the streets are narrow, repulsive, and dirty, but it is gradually in proving under French supervision. The bulk of the foreign residents are French, and a body of French troops are station d here. Two strong forts, which command the river on either side, are also occupid at pres nt by the Fr. neh, who hold them until the indemnity for loss drring the lat war has been paid off. The population of Ha plong is about 10,000, of whom one thousand are foreigners and Chinese. The only decent bous s in the place belong to t. e two latter, most of the natives living in bamboo buts of a primitive des.ription.

This large iner ase is ascribed to the permission to export rice, but there was also a great advance in the imports as well as exports. The value of the in.ports for 1877 was fr. 1,134,418 compared with fr. 615,268 in 1876; that of the exports for 1877 fr. 1,032,692 ; grinst fr. 14,612 in 1876; while the coasting trade, imports and exporis, rose from fr. 2,875 n 1876 to fr. 65,209 in 1877. The total number of clearances of foreign and Chinese vessels at the port in 1877 was 309, with a tonnage of 42,266, compared with 177 vessels ith a tonnage of 14,063 in 1876. More than half the total tonnage was under the The Caith flag.

HANOI.

Hanoi, the capital of Tonquin, ouce an independent Kingdom, but since 1802 a province of Annam, is situated on the Song-koi, or Red River, 110 miles from its mouth. The city rises gradually from the river, here about a mile in width, and, being embowered in trees, presents a pleasing appearance on approaching it by water. The citadel occupies the highest site, and is surrounded by a brick wall twelve feet high and a moat. Five gates give access to it, and in front of each is a redan strongly defended and manned by troops. The Government buildings and barracks are al inside the citadel. The city is situated between the citadel and the river, and extends beyond the former in a westerly direction. The principal streets are wide and the houses we.l built of brick, but in the other quarters of the city the shops and bouses are mat erections. The streets, with a single exception-and that is inhabited by Chinese-are unpaved, and in wet weather are simply impassable on account of the mud. There is plenty of life and business in Hanoi, and the shops and markets are well supplied with native goods and produce. The Cuinese, as in other parts of Cochin China, are the leading merchants and traders. They number about 3,000. The French Settlement, like Shameen, is separate from the city proper, and is formed on recla med land. The French Consul is armed with ample powers and has a guard of marines at his disposal. The population of Hanoi is estimated at 65,000.

The Song-koi is navigable for boats of light draught as far as Mang-bao, a con- siderable trading city in Yunnan, some 300 miles above Hanoi, but the disturbed condition of the frontier has hitherto prevented any systematic attempt to open communication by this route with Western China. The French Government has given no encourag ment to its subjects to establish trade in this direction, but it is believed that the prospects are very favourable. The Torquinese are indolent and apathetic, averse to any exertion, and totally devoid of enterprise.

BANGKOK.

The kingdom of Siam, of which Bangkok is the capital, extends from the latitude of about 23 deg. north to the Gulf called after itself. It is bound d on the west by Burmah and the Bay of Bengal, and on the east by the Lai Mountains. The kingdom proper lies in the valley of the Menam, the country of the true Siamese. The boundaries of Siam on the Bay of Bengal reach from the possessions of Great Britain in Burmah in a southerly line to the boundary between Perak and Quedah in the Malayan Peninsula in the latitude of 5 deg. south. The Island of Junck Salong, containing enormous deposits of tin ore, is included in the territories of Siam. The boundary line runs nearly east from Perak across the Peninsula in about the same latitude between the Provinces of Tringano and Pahang to the China Sea, thence north to the head of the Gulf of Siam. The kingdom also comprises the greater part of the ancient domain of Lao and the rich and valuable possession of Battambang, once a part of the Kingdom of Cambodia. The various dependencies and out-skirts are peopled by a variety of races, some sui generis, others illustrating every form and shade of the transition between the original race and the Annamese on the East, and the Malays and Burmese on the South and West. The former capital of Siam was Ayuthia, situated on the Menam river (literally the "Mother of Waters"), about 90 miles from its mouth. In 1767 a series of bloody and desperate combats between the Siamese and the Burmese culminated in the capture and destruction of that city by the victorious Burman General and the consequent exodus of the conquered. They moved down the river about 60 miles and there founded the present populous and flourishing city of Bangkok. The Chief of the Siamese Army rallied the scattered troops and, building a walled city at Toutaboree, declared himself King under the title of P'ya Tak. In 1782 the reins of empire were seized by one of his most distinguished generals named Yaut Fa, who founded the present dynasty, of which His Majesty the present King [the 40th reigning monarch in Siam of whom we have any record] is the fifth in regular descent. The city of Bangkok is situated on both sides of the Menam, about 30 miles from where this magnificent stream empties itself into the Gulf. On the east bank of the river are the palaces of the two Kings, the foreign hongs, the Consulates, the principal rice mills, and most of the Public Offices. The left is principally occupied by the Chinese and Mahomedam residents, though the Fore gn Office and the Yamens of the Prime Minister and his father, the ex-Regent, are situated on canals leading from it. The bulk of the business is, however, transacted on the east side. Here a very fair road extends from the palace walls to Paklat, at the mouth of the river, and telegraph lines connect the shipping at the bar with the business portion of the city. The principal trade of Bangkok and the foundation on which not only its prosperity but its actual existence mainly rests is rice. This article is drawn in immense quantities, not only from the innumerable fields which line the fertile valley of the Menam, but from the adjacent rivers which flow into the Gulf from the enormous water shed of the mountain crescent which fringes the northern extremity of the kingdom. The outturn of this grain in favourable years is scarcely to be calculated. It not only furnishes support to the native population of Sam and the Peninsula, but supplies China, Manila, the Straits, and even Java and Sumatra. There is also a large and flourishing trade in teak wood, with very many other minor articles of native produce which are exported to China and the Straits. There are two regular lines of steamers to Hongkong, one German and one English, besides special boats only running during the rice season, and two connecting the kingdom with the Straits Settlements; one of these is Siamese, the other British. These steamers run at stated intervals all the year round, and are only removed from the line for repairs or in case of sudden emergency. The sailing craft of every flag, rig, and denomination are innumerable. Of public

institutions for foreign use, Bangkok can only boast an Episcopal Chapel and a Protestant Cemetery. There are also a Pilots' Club ar a Ladies' Library, both in a flourishing condit on. An American Bowling Alley and a German Hotel are the only buildings devoted to amusement and refreshment. The native palaces, temples, and public buildings are magnificent and on a large scale. The architecture is of a kind peculiar to the country and there is more of novelty and interest to be witnessed by passing travellers in Bangkok in a few hours, than can be found in China in many weeks. There are three newspapers published in the city, two in the English language and one in the native tongue. The first is a daily sheet con- taining merely the arrivals and departures of ves ls and advertisements; the second is a weekly, and both are conducted by a in. ssionary. The native journal is also a weekly, published by authority of the Government and fulfilling the functions of a Gazette. There was also a native journal of some pretence, edited by the King's Private Secretary, and published as a quarterly, intended as a sort of review, but there was not sufficient literary taste in the kingdom to support it, and with the third number it expired. The revenue of Siam is very large, and if properly collect d would be enormous, but the inertness of the nobility and the frauds practised with the utmost boldness and impunity, have very seriously impaired it. Of the Customs revenue probably not one-eighth of the legitimate amount is ever collected. The general revenue is farmed out to Chinese, and a triennial tax is also imposed upon all foreigners unrepresented by a Consul, such as Chinese, Annamese, &c. The Courts of Justice are hotbeds of corruption, and the whole system of jurisprudence is rotten to the core. In the hands of a civilized nation, Siam would ultimately develope into one of the richest and most flourishing countries in the East.

SINGAPORE.

The town of Singapore, situated on the Southern shore of an island of the same name in lat. 1 deg. 16 min. N. and long. 103 deg. 53 min. E., is the seat of Govern- ment of the Colony known as the Straits Settlements, consisting of Singapore, Malacca, Penang, Province Wellesley, and a small strip of land opposite the Island of Pulo Dinding. Negotiations are, however, it is asserted, in progress whereby the latter cession will be cancelled.

The Island of Singapore is about 27 miles long by 14 wide, and is separated by a narrow strait about one to two miles wide from the territory of Jobore, which occupies the Southern extremity of the Malay Peninsula. Originally taken possession of in 1819 by Sir Stamford Raffles, it was until 1823 subordinate to our then settle- ment in Sumatra. In that year it became an appanaze of the Indian Government, in which condition it remained until 1867, when it was placed under the Colonial Office in conjunction with the other Settlements above mentione 1.

The town proper extends for about three miles along the South-Eastern shore of the Island spreading inland for a distance varying from half to three-quarters of a mile, though the residences of the upper class Europeans lie as a rule much further back, a circle with a radius of three and a half miles from the principal square including the majority. This portion of the island is entirely level, the highest hill of the island, indeed, about six miles from the South coast, only rising to a height of 530 feet. The country roads are well kept, and, thanks to the luxuriance of tropical vegetation, abound in shade. The streets, on the other hand, though wide and well metalled, are, as regards drains and gutters, a disgrace to the Municipality which has them in charge. Filth and obstructions of all sorts distinguish the native portion of the town, while as compared with nearly every other Eastern city in European hands, the architecture of the business quarters is singularly shabby and mediocre. The Govern- ment Offices and City Hall, however, are fine buildings.

The estimated population of Singapore in 1878 was about 125,000 of whom at least 90,000 are Chinese. For many years a most injudicious system of petting these latter prevailed on the part of the Government. Dirty coolies without any pretensions to education, manners, or even ability, were, on the strength of fortunes realized as spirit and opium farmers, even received at Government House, while the ultra tolera- tion shown to clan-fights and other disturbances on the part of the lowest classes, assisted by samsengs or professional fighting men, resulted in riots which induced frequent loss of life and destruction of property. Matters have changed in this respect since 1876, and the Chinese are being relegated to their proper place. The Klings and Malays-who constitute the other portions of the "Native" community- a very iew Parsees, Arabs, &c. forming perhaps a sixtieth part of the whole-are as a rule peaceful and unambitious and give but little trouble. The European com- munity consists in the main of Euglish and Germans-some 550 of the former to 150 of the latter. A larg half-caste or Eurasian population occupies the place elsewhere taken by the Asio-Portuguese.

1

The principal business quarter of Singapore is the Raffles Square with its adjacent quays and streets. The foreign stores are few in number but are fairly well supplied with necessaries, few of the luxuries, however, which are so prominent n Indian or Shanghai establishmen's finding place. A general want of enterprise, owing probably to the climate, is indeed a distinctive feature of Singapore life.

Singapore poss sses a handsome though small Protestant Cathedral (the Colonial Chaplain being Archdeacon of the Settlement), a neat Presbyterian Chapel (just opened), and several Catholic churches of roomy proportions. The principal

　　schools are those of the Raffles Institute and the Christian Brothers, a Convent also providing for the education of girls of the Roman Catholic persuasion. There is an English Club with premises in town and a well built bungalow some three miles out in the country, at which latter dances and amateur theatricals are frequently given. The German community have a similar institution and the best feeling exists between the two nationalities. The Raffles library and museum (temporarily located in the premises of the Raffles School) are creditable and well kept institutions, though the Museum, being of very recent origin, is as yet only partially filled. The Library contains about 8,000 volumes of standard modern literature.

　　　Singapore boasts two good hotels, the Hotel D'Europe and the Hotel de la Paix, the latter being chiefly patronised by Dutch and other foreign visitors. Emmerson's Hotel, long and favourably known, is in process of moving into new quarters as a family boarding-house.

　　　Daily, fortnightly, and biweekly newspapers (the latter from a separate office) furnish the local news.

　　　Singapore is well off for Docks. The Tanjong Pagar Company's premises l'e about a mile to the westward of the town, a fine wharf affording berthage for twenty vessels at one time with sufficient water alongside for vessels of the heaviest draught, and protected by a breakwater from the swell from the roads and from the strength of the tides. The business of the wharf is under the charge of an ex- perienced wharffinger and assistants and there is an abundance of labour, ensuring the speedy discharge and loading of vessels alongside, facilitated by the use of steam winches, cranes, &c.

There are commodious go towns, erected on the wharf for the storage of goods. Coal sheds capable of storing 50,000 tons of the mineral adjoiu the godowns while a small st am railway essentially aids the labour of unloading vessels. The usual accompaniments are also to be found-a graving dock 450 feet in length, a machine shop, boiler and masting shears, &c. The New Harbour Dock Company, situated about a mile further West, has two docks of 415 and 450 feet length respectively, with sheds, workshops, &c. as at Tanjong Pagar. Both companies forward telegrams to and from the town free of charge.

The "Ocean," "Glen" and other local steamer lines usually go alongside the Tanjong Pagar Wharf. The French mail steamers and Messrs. Jardine, Matheson's vessels use the Borneo Company's Wharf at New Harbour, while the P. & O. steamers have a wharf of their own still further West at Teluk Blangah, three miles from town.

　　　Communication with other ports is kept up by the P. & O., Messageries, Ocean, Rubattino, Castle, and Glen lines of steamers (with some occasional visitors) to Europe; by the Eastern and Australian line with Australia; by the Netherlands India line with Java, Timor, and the islands of the Archipelago; and by a Spanish line with the Philippines; all but the two last running to Hongkong.

　　　The climate of Singapore is remarkable for its salubrity, and the island has been described by medical writers as the "paradise of children," infantile diseases seldom being at all malignant. Despite its proximity to the Equator an almost daily rainfall tempers the heat so thoroughly that few sleep without blankets. The island is not exempt from the animal pests which usually infest intra-tropical locations. Three or four tigers (not man-eaters) are reported to have been seen in the north-west district; wild pigs and monkeys (both very destructive to gardens) inhabit much of the jungle surrounding the country residences; while the much dreaded cobra has been killed in most of the compounds near the town. The existence of the most formidable Asiatic snake, the Hamadryad, has also been demonstrated, though this fierce reptile is fortunately but very seldom seen. It should be added that speci pens of the formidable python, up to 24 feet in length, have been found in the jungle and that alligators and sharks inhabit the still waters of the coast. Mosquitoes, however, form the principal plague, and cause far more irritation and vexation than the occa- sional visits of the snakes, centipedes, or scorpions, which are now and then killed in bath or bed rooms.

SINGAPORE.

　Singapore offers but few points of salient ir terest to visitors. The Botanical Gardens at Tangl'n and the Raffles Library and Museum being its only show places. Few, however, are unimpressed with its wealth of vegetation-of a certain sort. The jungle, crowded with kompas, betel, and cocoanut trees, ere and there relieved by durians, manoes, and mangostins, is grandly beautiful. But flowers flourish to only a limited degree. Orchids indeed abour d, but their blossoms soon fade, while a few gorgeous flowering plants but poorly make up for the absence of roses, gera. niums, honeysuckle, and all the vast variety which we associate with a well kept garden at home.

　Food in Singapore is indifferent. Fowls, ducks, and eggs form the staple of animal food, one or two butchers supplying mutton or her f if bespoken. Neither can, however, be recommended. The choice of vegetables is equally limited. Fruits, however, are abundaut, such as piues, bananas, mangostins, and the usual variely of tropical growth. The much vaunted and much abused durian-the odour of which resembles a combination of asafoetida, rotten ch ese, sugar, bad eggs, and cinnamon -is seldom tolerated at the tables of foreigners.

　Owing to the long distances, horses and carriages are in universal demand, and numerous hack gharriesr palanquins on wh els, a shade better than the old London cab, are to be seen at almost every corner. The syces or drivers, however, are, like the boatmen of the port, a most extortionate set and require vigorous regulation on the part of the Government.

　　2. For the purposes and within the meaning of the said Order, every person so appointed as an Acting Consul shall be deemed a Consular Officer, and the district for which he is appointed to act shall be deemed a Consular District, and the Court held by bim shall be deemed a Provincial Court.

19. The Court shall, on application within seven days from the service of the summons, give the defendant leave to defend the suit on his paying into Court the sum indorsed, or on evidence on oath showing to the satisfaction of the Court a good legal or equitable defence, or such facts as would make it incumbent on the holder to prove consideration, or such other facts as the Court deems sufficient to support the application, and on such terms as to security and other things as to the Court seems fit; and in that case the Court may direct proceedings to be taken and carried on by petition in the ordinary way.

20. If the defendant does not so obtain leave to defend, the plaintiff, on proof of due service of the summons, shall be entitled as of course at any time after the expiration or such seven days, to an immediate absolute decree for any sum not exceeding the sum indorsed on the summons, together with interest at the rate specified (if any) to the date of the decree, and a sum for costs to be fixed by the Court in the decree:

21. After decree the Court may, under special circumstances, set aside the decree, and may, if necessary, set aside execution, and may give leave to defend the suit, if it appears to the Court reasonable so to do, and on such terms as to the Court may seem just, the reasons for any such order being recorded in the minutes of proceedings.

22. In any proceedings under the present provisions, it shall be competent to the Court to order the bill or note sought to be proceeded on to be forthwith deposited in the Court, and further to order that all proceedings be stayed until the plaintiff gives security

for costs.

23. The holder of a dishonoured bill or note shall have the same remedies for recovery of the expenses incurred in the noting of the same for non-acceptance or non-paying, or incurred otherwise by reason of the dishonour, as he has under the present provisions for recovery of the amount of the bill or note.

24. The bolder of a bill or note may, if he thinks fit, obtain one summons under the present provisions against all or any of the parties to the bill or note; and such summons shall be the commencement of a suit or suits against the parties therein named respectively; and all the subsequent proceedings against such respective parties shall be carried on, as far as may be, as if separate summonses had issued.

But the summons or its indorsement must set forth the claims against the parties respectively, according to their respective alleged liabilities, with sufficient precision and certainty to enable each defendant to set up any defence on which be individually may desire to rely.

25. An appeal from a Provincial Court to the Supreme Court in respect of any decision, decree, or order given or made in any such suit does not lie, except by special leave.

Defective Petition.

40. Where a petition is defective on the face of it by reason of non-compliance with any provision of these Rules, the Court may, either on application by a defendant or of its own motion, make an order to stay proceedings until the defect is remedied.

The Court shall, of its own motion, make an order to stay proceedings on a defective petition, where the defect is patent and serious, and comes to the knowledge of the Court before service of the petition on the defendant.

Copies of Service.

41. Where there is only one defendant, one copy of the petition, and of any schedule thereto, for service, is to be left with the Court, together with the original; where there are two or more defendants, as many copies as there are parties to be served are to be left, together with the original.

Service of Petition.

42. The plaintiff on filing his petition must obtain an order for service of it on the defendant.

Every order for service shall specify a reasonable time after service, ordinarily not more than eight days, within which the defendant must put in his answer.

Defence on Ground of Law.

43. Where a defendant conceives that he has a good legal or equitable defence to the petition, so that even if the allegations of fact in the petition were admitted or clearly established, yet the plaintiff would not be entitled to any decree against him (the defendant), he may raise this defence by a motion that the petition be dismissed without any answer being required from him.

The motion paper shall be filed within the time allowed for putting in an answer.

It must state briefly the grounds of law on which the defendant intends to rely at the hearing of the motion.

The motion shall be heard and disposed of at as early a time as may be.

For the purposes of the motion t'e defendant shall be taken to admit the truth of the allegations of fact in the petition, and no evidence as to matters of fact or discussion of questions of fact shall be admitted at the hearing of the motion.

On hearing the motion the Court shall either dismiss the petition or order the defendant to put in an answer within a short time, to be named in the order, and may give leave to the plaintiff to amend his petition if it appears requisite, and may impose such terms as justice requires.

Where, on the hearing of the motion, any grounds of law are urged in support of the motion beyond those stated in the motion paper, and the grounds stated therein are disallowed, the defendant shall be liable to pay the same costs as if the motion were wholly refused, although the grounds of law newly urged are allowed, unless the Court thinks fit in any case to order otherwise.

It should be clear and precise, and not introduce matter irrelevant to the suit, and the rules before laid down respecting the setting out of documents and the contents of a petition generally shall be observed in answer, mutatis mutandis.

　　　　It must deny all such material allegations in the petition as the defendant intends to deny at the hearing.

　　　　Where the answer denies an allegation of fact, it must deny it directly, and not by way of negative pregnant: as (for example) where it is alleged that the defendant has received a sum of money, the answer must deny that he has received that sum or any part thereof, or else set forth what part he has received. And so, where a matter of fact is alleged in the petition with certain circum- stances, the answer must not deny it literally as it is alleged, but must answer the point of substance positively and certainly.

The answer must specifically admit such material allegation in the petition as the defendant knows to be true, or desires to be taken as admitted. Such admission, if plain and specific, will prevent the plaintiff from obtaining the cost of proving at the hearing any matters of fact so admitted.

　　　　　All matrial allegations of fact admitted by a defendant shall be taken as established against him, without proof thereof by the plaintiff at the hearing. But the plaintiff shall be bound to prove as against each defendant all allegations of fact not admitted by bim, or not stated by him to be true to his belief.

The answer must allege any matter of fact not stated in the petition on which the defendant relies in defence, -as establishing, for instance, fraud on the part of the plaintiff, or showing that the plaintiff's right to recover, or to any relief capable of being granted on the petition, has not yet accrued, or is released or barred or ctherwise gone.

Specific Answer.

49. Where the defendant does cot answer, or puts in an answer amounting only to a general denial of the plaintiff's claim, the plaintiff may apply by summons for an order to compel him to answer specially to the several material allegations in the petition; and the Court, if such allegations are briefly, positively, separately, and distinctly made, and it thinks that justice so requires, may grant such an order.

The defendant shall, within the time limited by such order, put in his answer accordingly, and shall therein answer the several material allegations in the petition, either admitting or denying the truth of such allegations seriatim, as the truth or falsehood of each is within his knowledge, or (as the case may be) stating as to any one or more of the allegations that he does not know whether such allegation or allegations is or are true or otherwise.

The defendant so answering may also set up by such answer any defence to the suit, and may explain away the effect of any admission therein made by any other allegation of facts.

Interrogatories.

50. Where an answer so put in fails substantially to comply with the terms of the order, by reason of any one or more of the material allegations not being either denied or admitted thereby, or not being met by a statement in the answer that the defendant does not know whether such allegation or allegations is or are true or otherwise, the plaintiff may apply to the Court to examine the defendant on written interrogatories; and the Court may, if it sees fit, examine the defendant accordingly on written interrogatories allowed by the Court, and embodying material allegations of the petition in an interrogative form, and may reduce the answers of the defendant to writing.

Such answers shall be taken for the purposes of the suit to be a part of the defendant's answer to the petition.

Oath.

51. The Court may, where the circumstances of the case appear to require it, order the defendant to put in an answer on oath.

Tender.

52. A defence alleging tender by the defendant must be accompanied by payment into Court of the amount alleged to have been tendered.

Set-off.

56. A defence of set-off to a claim for money, whether in debt or in damages, must be accompanied by a statement of particulars of set-off; and if pleaded as a sole defence, unless extending to the whole amount of the plaintiff's claim, must also be accompanied by

Payment into Court.

54. Payment into Court by the defendant must be accompanied Answer. by an answer. The answer must state distinctly that the money paid in is paid in satisfaction of the plaintiff's claim generally, or (as the case may be) in satisfaction of some specific part of the plaintiff's claim, where the claim is stated in the petition for distinct sums or in respect of distinct matters.

RULES OF SUPREME COURT

57. Where the plaintiff considers the contents of the answer to be such as to render an amendment of the petition necessary or desirable, he may obtain ex parte an order to amend the petition ou satisfying the Court that the amendment is not intended for the purpose of delay or vexation, but because it is considered to be material for the plaintiff's case.

Notice of the amendment shall be given to the defendant within such time and in such manner as the Court in each case directs.

Settlement of Issues.

58. At any time before or at the hearing the Court may, if it thinks fit, on the application of any party or of its own motion, proceed to ascertain and determine what are the material questions in controversy between the parties, although the same are not distinctly or properly raised by the pleadings, and may reduce such questions into writing and settle tem in the form of issues; which issues when settled may state questions of law on admitted facts, or questions of disputed fact, or questions partly of the one kind and partly of the other.

In settling issues the Court may order or allow the striking out or amendment of any pleading or part of a pleading so that the pleadings may finally correspond with the issues settled, and may order or allow the striking out or amendment of any pleading or part of a pleading that appears to be so framed as to prejudice, embarrass, or delay the trial of the cause.

Where the application to the Court to settle issue is made at any stage of the proceedings, at which all parties are actually present before the Court, either in person or by counsel or attorney, or at the hearing, the application may be made viva voce, and may be disposed of at once, otherwise the application must be made and disposed of on summons.

Reference of Account.

59. Where it appears to the Court at any time after suit instituted, that the question in dispute relates either wholly or in part to matters of mere account, the Court may, according to the amount of public business pending, either decide such question in a summary way, or order that it be referred either wholly or in part to some person agreed on by the parties, or in case of their non-agreement, appointed by the Court.

The referee shall enter into the account and hear evid nce, and report on it to the Court, according to the order; and the Court after hearing the parties may adopt the conclusions of the report, either wholly or in part, or may direct a further report to be made by the referee, and may grant any necessary adjournment for that purpose. Setting down of Cause for Hearing.

60. No cause can be set down for hearing without order of the Court first obtained.

61. At the expiration of the time allowed for answering, the plaintiff may apply ex parte for an order to set down the cause for hearing.

62. Where the defendant has put in an answer, the plaintiff must carefully consider the answer, and if he finds that upon the answer alone there is sufficient ground for a final decree or order. he must proceed upon the answer without entering into evidence preparatory to or at the bearing.

Or, if it is needful to prove a particular point, he must not enter into evidence as to other points that are not necessary to be proved.

"Where by an Act passed in the first years of the reign of Her Majesty Queen Victoria, instituted, 'An Act for the Amendment of the Laws with respect to Wills,' it is enacted, that no will shall be valid unless it shall be signed at the foot or end thereof by the testator, or by some other person in his presence, and by his direction. Every will shall, so far only as regards the position of the signature of the testator, or of the person signing for him as aforesaid, be deemed to be valid within the said enactment, as explained by this Act, if the signature shall be so placed at or after, or following, or under, or besides, or opposite to the end of the will, that it shall be apparent on the face of the will that the testator intended to give effect by such his signature to the writing signed as his will, and that no such will shall be affected by the circumstance that the signature shall not follow or be immediately after the foot or end of the will, or by the circumstance that a blank space shall intervene between the concluding word of the will and the signature, or by the circumstance that the tignature shall be placed among the words of the testimonium clause or of the clause of attestation, or shall follow or be after or under the clause of attestation, either with or without a blank space intervening or shall follow or be after or under or besides the name of one of the names of the subscribing witnesses, or by the circumstance that the signature shall be on a side or page or other portion of the paper or papers containing the will whereon no clause or paragraph or disposing part of the will shall be written above the signature, or by the circumstance that there shall appear to be suficient space on or at the bottom of the preceding side or page or other portion of the same paper on which the will is written to contain the signature; and the enumeration of the above circumstances shall not restrict the generality of the above enactment; but no signature under the said Act or this Ast shall be operative to give effect to any disposition or directions which is underneath or which follows it, nor shall it give effect to any disposition or direction inserted after the signature shall be

Where this information is not forthcoming, the offiust communicate with the Judge of the Supreme Court.

207. Having satisfied himself that the will was daly executed, the officer must carefully inspect the same, to see whether there are any interlineations or alterations or erasures or obliterations appear- ing in it, and requiring to be accounted for.

Interlineations and alterations are invalid unless they existed in the will at the time of its execution, or, if made afterwards, unless they have been executed and attested in the mode required by the said Acts of Parliament, or unless they have been made valid by the re-execution of the will--or by the subsequent execution of some codicil thereto.

Where interlineations or alterations appear in the will (unless duly executed or recited in or otherwise identified by the attestation clause), an affidavit or affidavits in proof of their having existed in the will before its execution, must be filed.

In like manner, erasures and obliterations are not to prevail unless proved to have existed in the will at the time of its execution, -or unless the alterations thereby effected in the will are duly executed and attested, or unless they have been made valid by the re-execution of the will, or by the subsequent execution of some codicil thereto.

If no satisfactory evidence is adduced as to the time when the erasures or obliterations were made, and the words erased or obliterated are not entirely effaced, and can, on inspection of the paper, be ascertained, they must form part of the probate.

In every case of words having been erased which might have been of importance an affidavit must be required.

If reasonable doubt exists in regard to any interlineation, alteration, erasure, or obliteration, the officer shall, before proceeding further in the matter, communicate with the Judge of the Supreme Court for his directions.

208. Where a will contains a reference to any deed, paper, memorandum, or other document, of such a nature as to raise a question whether it ought or ought not to form a constituent part of the will, the production of the deed, paper, memorandum, or other document must be required, with a view to ascertain whether or not it is entitled to probate; and if not produced the non-production of it must be accounted for by evidence on oath.

Any deed, paper, memorandum, or other document cannot form part of a will or codicil, unless it was in existence at the time when the will or codicil was executed.

If there are any vestiges of sealing wax or wafers or other marks on the testamentary paper, leading to the inference that some paper, memorandum, or other document has been annexed or attached thereto, they must be satisfactorily accounted for by evidence on oath, or the production of such paper, memorandum, or other docu- ment must be required; and if not produced, the non-production of it must be accounted for by evidence on oath.

If doubt exists as to whether or not any such deed, paper, memorandum, or other document is entitled to probate as a con stituent part of the will, the officer shall, before proceeding further in the matter, communicate with the Judge of the Supreme Court for his directions.

CRIMINAL MATTERS. I.-In General.

279. In the following Rules (under the heading "Criminal Matters") as far as they relate to the Supreme Court, the expres sion "the Court" means or includes (as the case may require) any officer of, or person attached to, the Supreme Court from time to time authorized to exercise or assist in the exercise of any part of the criminal jurisdiction of that Court.

280. A person making a criminal charge (Form 31) against another before the Supreme or other Court, must do so in person, or by attorney or counsel, or an agent lawfully thereunto authorized.

281. In every case, whether the charge is or is not such as must or may be heard and determined in a summary way, the Court shall proceed, if the accused is not already in custody, either by way of summons to him (Form 32) or by way of warrant for his apprehen- sion in the first instance (Form 33), according as the nature and circumstances of the case require.

Summone.

282. For the issuing of a summons the charge need not be put in writing or be sworn to, unless the Court so directs.

RULES OF THE SUPREME COURT

Preliminary Examination.

291. Where the accused comes before the Court on summons or warrant, or otherwise, the Court before committing him to prison for trial, or admitting him to bail, sball, in his presence, take the depositions on oath (Form 39) of those who know the facts and circumstances of the case, and shall put the same in writing.

292. The accused shall be at liberty to put questions to any witness produced against him, and the statements of any witness in answer thereto shall form part of that witness's deposition.

293. The deposition of each witness shall be read over to the witness, and shall be signed by him.

294. If on the trial of the accused it is proved on oath that any person whose deposition has been taken is dead, or is so ill as not to be able to travel, and that his deposition was taken in the presence of the accused, and that he or his counsel or attorney cross- examined, or had full opportunity of cross-examining the witness, the deposition may be read as evidence in the prosecution without further proof thereof.

295. No objection at the preliminary examination to any charge, summons, or warrant, for any defect in substance or form, or for any variance between it and the evidence adduced on the part of the prosecution, shall be allowed: but if any variance appears to the Court to be such that the accused has been thereby deceived or misled, the Court may, on the request of the accused, adjourn the examination, and in the meantime remand the accused or admit him to bail.

Statement of Accused.

296. After the examination of all the witnesses on the part of the prosecution is completed, the Court shall, without requiring the attendance of the witnesses, read over to the accused the depositions taken against him, and shall then say to him these words:

64

Having heard the evidence, do you wish to say anything in answer to the charge? You are not obliged to say anything unless you desire to do so, but whatever you say will be taken down in writing, and may be given in evidence against you on your trial. And I give you clearly to understand that you have nothing to hope from any promise of favour, and nothing to fear from any threat that may have been held out to you to induce you to make any admission or confession of your guilt; but whatever you now say may be given in evidence against you upon your trial, notwithstanding such promise or threat." Whatever the accused then says in answer thereto shall be taken down in writing (Form 40) and shall be read over to him, and shall be kept with the depositions of the witnesses, and after- wards, on the trial of the accused, the same may be given in evidence against bim without further proof thereof.

297. Nothing in the foregoing Rules, however, is to prevent the prosecutor from giving in evidence any admission or confession or other statement of the accused made at any time, which would, by law, be admissible as evidence against him.

Publicity.

298. The room or place in whieh the preliminary examination is held is not an open or public Court for that purpose; and the Court may, in its discretion, in case it appears to it that the ends of justice will be best answered by so doing, order that no person have access to, or remain in, the room or place without the special permission of the Court.

the

day

This case will be transferred from the General Hearing List to the Hearing Paper for 18 and will come on to be heard in its turn on that day, if the business of the Court permits, or otherwise on some adjournment day, of which you will receive no further notice.

You are desired to pay attention to the following directions:- If the Plaintiff fails to attend in person or by counsel or attorney on the day appointed, the case if called on may be struck out, and the Plaintiff will be liable to pay to the Defendant such costs as may be fixed by the Court. Also, the case must be set down in the General Hearing List afresh, by which the Plaintiff will incur delay and expense.

If the Defendant fails to attend in person or by counsel or attorney on the day appointed, the case if called on may, if the Court so directs, be heard and determined in his absence on the evidence adduced on behalt of the Plaintiff, and the Court will issue execution of the judgment so obtained.

If either party has any application to make to the Court to postpone the hearing, it should be made as soon as possible, on application for a summons for that purpose, and if the application is based on any matter of fact, as the absence of a material witness or the like, the facts relied on must be set out and verified in one or more affidavit or affidavits filed in the Court before such application. If either party considers that the questions between the parties are not fairly raised or put in issue by the pleadings, or thinks that the questions raised are obscure, and that he is prejudiced thereby, he may apply to the Court on summons to settle issues, and such application should be made at once.

The parties are warned that at the hearing they are required to adduce all the testimony, written and oral, which each of them desires to rely on, in support of his own case and in contradiction of that of his opponent. The proof will be required at the hearing and not on a subsequent day, and parties failing to bring their testimony forward at the proper time may find themselves absolutely precluded from adducing it at all, or at best only allowed to do so on payment of substantial costs to the other side, and on such other terms as the Court thinks fit to impose.

Parties desirous to enforce the attendance of witnesses should apply at once to the Court to issue to or to procure from the national authority of the witness required a summons for attendance.

　　　It is indispensable that the application should be made so as to allow time for a reasonable notice to the witness required.

If the witness is required to bring books or papers, they must be particularized in the summons sufficiently to enable him clearly to understand what is meant.

Any party summoning a witness through the Court, thereby becomes liable to pay such witness a reasonable sum of money to bo summarily fixed by the Court for his expenses and loss of time.

The Court will not enforce the attendance of a witness unless such sum has been deposited in the Court.

If either party desires to use in evidence at the bearing any book, paper, or document in the possession or power of the other party, he must give the other party reasonable notice in writing to produce it at the hearing, failing which he will not be allowed to give any secondary evidence of its contents.

　　　No person is excluded from giving evidence by reason of interest or relationship. The parties themselves, their wives, relations, partners, and servants respectively are competent witnesses.

CODE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE-HONGKONG.

ORDINANCE No. 13 OF 1873.

SIR ARTHUR EDWARD KENNEDY, K.C.M.G., C.B.,

Governor and Commander-in-chief.

An Ordinance enacted by the Governor of Hongkong, with the Advice of the Legislative Council thereof, to consolidate and amend the Laws relating to the Process, Practice, and Mode of Pleading in the Supreme Court of the Colony, and to provide a Uniform Code of Procedure at Common Law and Equity.

[30th September, 1873.]

INTRODUCTION.

Whereas it is expedient to consolidate and amend the Laws relating to the Process, Practice, and Mode of Pleading in the Supreme Court of the Colony, and to provide a Uniform Code of Procedure at Common Law and in Equity: Be it enacted by the Governor of Hongkong, with the advice of the Legislative Council thereof, as follows:-

I. This Ordinance may be cited for all purposes as "The Hongkong Code of Civil Procedure."

II. The following terms and expressions shall be understood as hereinafter defined or explained, unless there be something in the subject or context repugnant to such definition or explanation; that is to say:--

"Court" shall mean the Supreme Court, and shall include the Chief Justice and Puisne Judge of the Supreme Court, sitting together or separately, in Court or in Chambers.

"Full Court" shall mean the Chief Justice and the Puisne Judge sitting

together.

"Registrar" shall mean the Registrar of the Supreme Court.

"Sheriff" shall include a Deputy Sheriff, and any person lawfully authorized

to execute the Process of the Court.

"Code" shall mean the Code of Civil Procedure introduced by this

Ordinance.

"Cause of Action" in suits founded on contract shall not necessarily mean

the whole Cause of Action, but a cause of action shall be deemed to have arisen within the juris liction, if the contract was made therein, though the breach may have occurred elsewhere, and also if the breach occurred within the jurisdiction, though the contract may have been

made elsewhere.

"Within the Jurisdiction" shall mean within the Colony, and shall not include the jurisdiction exercised by the Supreme Court under Article 159 of the Order of Her Majesty the Queen in Council of the 9th of March, 1865, for the Government of Her Majesty's Subjects in China and Japan.

III.-Nothing in this ordinance contained shall be deemed:-

(a.) To affect the Rights, Privileges, or Remedies of the Crown; (b.) To affect the existing Jurisdiction or Powers of the Supreme Court; (c.) To affect the Procedure and Practice of the Supreme Court in matters or causes testamentary under Ordinance No. 8 of 1870, nor under "The Bankruptcy Ordinance, 1864," nor under "The Companies Ordinance, 1856," nor further nor otherwise than is herein expressly enacted;

117

(d.) To affect the Procedure and Practice of the Vice-Admiralty Court of

the Colony;

(c.) To affect any Suit, Action, or other Proceeding instituted at the time

of the commencement of this Ordinance;

Provided always that in case the parties to any such last-mentioned Suit, Action, or other Proceeding shall desire to carry on and continue the same, so far as may be practicable, under the provisions of this Code, the Court may,

in its discretion, permit them so to do upon such terms and conditions as it may think reasonable.

Old Procedure and Practice.

　　　IV. Except so far as may be otherwise specially provided in this Code, or the enactments contained in any Ordinances of the Colony, or in any Acts or Parts of Acts of the Imperial Parliament in force therein relating to the procedure and practice of the Court in its common law and equity jurisdiction, and all rules and orders of the Supreme Court (including all unwritten rules of practice, and all rules or orders of any Court of law or equity in England, which are now in force in the Colony) shall, from and after the commencement of this Ordinance, and during the continuance thereof, be suspended in their operations, so far as they relate to such procedure and practice, subject to the proviso next hereinafter contained, that is to say: Provided that as regards any matters for which no special provision may have been made by this Code, the said Ordinances, Acts, or Parts of Acts, Rules, or Orders hereby suspended, shall be deemed to remain in force so far as the same shall not conflict, or be inconsistent with, the Code of Procedure introduced by this Ordinance, and can be made auxiliary thereto.

New Procedure and Practice.

　　　V. From and after the commencement of this Ordinance, the procedure and practice of the Supreme Court in its common law and equity jurisdictions shall be assimilated, and all civil suits shall be instituted and carried on in manner hereinafter prescribed.

PART I.

FROM THE INSTITUTION OF A SUIT TO THE HEARING.

CHAPTER I.-The InstitUTION OF SUITS.

Register of Civil Suits.

　　　VI.-The Registrar shall keep & Book called the Register of Civil Suite, which shall be in the form contained in the Schedule to this Code, or as near thereto as circumstances permit, and shall contain the entries specified in the said form, and every suit or proceeding, however instituted under the provisions of this Code, shall be numbered in each year according to the order in which the same shall be com- menced.

Attorneys and Agents.

VII.-Every person doing any act, or taking any proceeding in the Court as plaintiff, or otherwise, must do so in his own name, and not otherwise, and either by himself or by his attorney, procuiator, or agent thereunto lawfully authorised in writing.

2.-Where such act is done, or proceeding taken by an attorney, procurator, or agent, the Court may order that the power of attorney, or instrument constituting the procurator or agent, or an authenticated copy thereof, be filed in the Court before or at the commencement of, or during the proceedings.

3. Where the authority is special and has reference only to the particular proceeding to be taken, the original document itself must he filed; but where the authority is general or has reference to other matters in which the attorney, pro- curator, or agent is empowered to act, an authenticated copy of such document may be filed.

118

CODE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE-HONGKONG.

4. The authority, whether general or special, must be distinct and clear, so as to satisfy the Court that the person professing to act thereon has such authority as be claims to exercise.

5. Any person doing any act or taking any proceeding in the Court in the name or on behalf of another person, not being lawfully authorised thereunto, and knowing himself not to be so authorised, shall be deemed guilty of a contempt of Court.

Services of Process.

VIII. No service in a Civil Suit shall be made on Sunday, Christmas day, or Good Friday.

2.-Unless in any case the Court thinks it just and expedient otherwise to direct, service shall be personal, that is, the document to be served shall be delivered into the hands of the person to be served: Provided always, that where the duly authorised attorney of the person to be served shall undertake to accept service on behalf of his client, service upon such attorney shall be equivalent to personal service on the client, and all further service in the suit or proceeding, may be made by delivering the instrument to be served to such attorney, or by leaving the same at his place of business.

3.- Where it appears to the Court that for any reason personal service of a writ, petition, notice, summons, decree, order, or other document of which service is required cannot be conveniently effected, the Court may order that service be effected either:

(a.) By delivery of the document to be served, together with the order for service, to some adult inmate at the usual or last known place of abode or business within the Colony of the person so served; or,

(b.) By delivery thereof to some agent within the Colony of the person to be served, or to some other person within the Colony through whom it appears to the Court there is a reasonable probability that the document and order served will come to the knowledge of the person to be served; or,

(c.) By advertisement in some newspaper circulating within the Colony; or, (d.) By notice put up at the Court-house, or at some other place of public resort, or at the usual or last known place of abode or business of the person to be served, within the Colony.

4. When the defendant is in the service of the Government, the Court may transmit a copy of the document to be served to the head officer of the department in which the defendant is employed, for the purpose of being served on him, if it shall appear to the Court that the document may be most conveniently so served.

5. When the suit is against a British Corporation, or a Company authorised to sue and be sued in the name of an officer or trustees, the document may be served by giving the same to any director, secretary, or other principal officer, or by leaving it at the office of the Corporation or Company.

6.- When the suit is against a foreign Corporation or Company having an office and carrying on business within the Colony, and such suit is limited to a cause of action which arose within the jurisdiction, the document may be served by giving the same to the principal officer, or by leaving it at the office of such foreign Corporation or Company within the Colony.

7. When the suit is against a defendant residing out of the jurisdiction, but carrying on business in the Colony in his own name, or under the name of a firm through a duly authorised agent, and such suit is limited to a cause of action which arose within the jurisdiction, the document may be served by giving it to such agent, and such service shall be equivalent to personal service on the defendant.

8. The Court may direct service to be made out of the jurisdiction in all cases in which the Court is satisfied by affidavit or otherwise that the suit is limited to a cause of action which arose within the jurisdiction.

9. In every case in which the Court shall direct service to be made out of the jurisdiction, it shall be lawful for the Court, in its discretion, to fix the time within which an appearance shall be entered by the defendant and to give any other directions with reference to such service which it may think fit, and to receive any

CODE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE.-HONGKONG.

119

affidavit or statutory declaration of such service having been effected as prima facie evidence thereof.

　　　　10.-Any order for service may be varied from time to time with respect to the mode of service directed by the order, as occasi n requires.

11. Whenever the service of Process by the sheriff shall be attended with expenses, he shall not (except by order of the Court) he bound to effect the same, unless the reasonable expenses thereof shall have been previously tendered to him by the party requiring such service; and such expenses shall be costs in the cause.

Suits to be commenced by Writ of Summons.

　　　　IX.-Subject to the provisions hereinafter contained as to the institution of special suits and proceedings in certain cases, all suits in the Supreme Court shall be commenced by a general writ of summons to be issued bp the Registrar on the filing of a Præcipe for the same.

　　　　2.- The writ shall be prepared by the plaintiff, or his attorney, and shall specify the name, description, and place of abode of the plaintiff and of the defendant so far as they can be ascertained, the subject matter of the claim, and the relief sought for, and such writ shall be tested in the name of the Chief Justice, and bear date the day whereon the same shall be sued out.

　　　　3. Any alteration in the writ, without leave of the Court, and without being re-sealed before service, shall render the writ void.

　　　　　4.-In case service of the writ shall not have been effected within six months from the date thereof, the same shall become void: Provided always that the Court may, before the expiration of the then current period, in its discretion, from time to time renew the operation of the writ for a further period not exceeding six months at one time.

5. Nothing in this section contained shall be deemed to apply to proceedings which may now be heard on petition without preliminary service on any party, but all petitions shall be subject to the rules contained in Section XXIV., so far as they are applicable to the subject matter thereof.

Of Summoning the Defendant.

　　　　X.-The plaintiff shall cause a copy of the writ of Summons to be served on the defendant, and such copy shall contain a Memorandum endorsed thereon requiring the defendant to enter an appearance to the suit within eight days from the day of such service, or in cases of service out of the jurisdiction, within such time as the Court shall have ordered; and every such writ shall, within eight days after the service thereof, or in cases of service out of the jurisdiction, within such time as the Court shall have ordered, be returned into the Registrar's office with a memorandum endorsed thereon of the date and mode of service.

Appearance.

XI. The defendant shall within eight days from the day of service upon him of the writ of summons, or in cases of service out of the jurisdiction, within such time as the Court shall have ordered, cause an appearance to the suit to be entered for him in the Supreme Court.

　　　2. In all cases of service of a writ of summons out of the jurisdiction, the entry of appearance thereto shall specify the name and address of some attorney, agent, or other person within the jurisdiction on whom substituted service of all further process against the defendant in the suit may be effected while the defendant remains out of the jurisdiction, and in default thereof, the Court may proceed with the suit as if no appearance had been entered.

Consequence of Non-Appearance.

XII. If the defendant shall fail to enter an appearance within the time herein before limited in that behalf, and it shall be proved to the satisfaction of the Court that the writ was duly served, the Court may give leave to the plaintiff to proceed with the suit ex parte. The plaintiff may thereupon file his petition and apply forthwith to have the cause set down for hearing.

　　　2. If the defendant enter an appearance at any time before the hearing of the suit, he may, upon such terms as the Court may direct as to the payment of costs

CODE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE.-HONGKONG.

or otherwise, be heard in answer to the suit, in like manner as if he had duly entered an appearance within the time limited as aforesaid.

3. When the cause has been called on, the Court may proceed to hear the same ex parte, and may, on the evidence adduced by the plaintiff, give such judgment as appears just; but it shall not be obligatory on the Court to decide ex parte in the absence of the defendant, and it shall be at the discretion of the Court to issue a warrant to arrest him and detain him till another day appointed for the hearing of the cause, and, in the meanwhile, to attach his property.

Writs specially Indorsed.

XIII. In all cases in which the defendant is within the jurisdiction of the Court, and the claim is for a debt or liquidated demand in money, whether founded on a legal or equitable right, the plaintiff shall be at liberty to make upon the writ of summons and copy thereof, a special endorsement of the particulars and amount of his claim and of any interest payable thereon by law or under any contract expressed or implied, and in default of appearance, he shall be entitled to judgment for any sum not ex- ceeding the sum indorsed on the writ together with interest, if any, payable thereon as aforesaid, to the date of the judgment, and the amount of the taxed costs: Provided always that the Court may, nevertheless, let in the defendant to defend upon an application, supported by satisfactory affidavits accounting for his non-appearance and disclosing a defence upon the merits.

2. If the defendant has appeared, the plaintiff shall be entitled, upon filing an affidavit verifying the cause of action, and swearing that in his belief there is no defence, to take out a summons to show cause why he should not proceed to judgment and execution, and upon such summons, such order may be made as the justice of the case may require.

3. In the manner, in cases of ordinary account, as in the case of a partnership, or executorship, or ordinary trust account, where nothing more is required in the first instance than an account, the writ may be specially indorsed, and in default of appearance, or after appearance, unless the defendant shall satisfy the Court that there is really some preliminary question to be tried, an order for the account, with all usual directions, may be forthwith made.

4.-It shall also be lawful for the Court, in such cases, on summary application in Chambers or elsewhere, to direct, if it think fit, any necessary inquiries or accounts, notwithstanding it may appear that there is some special or further relief sought, or some special matter to be tried, as to which it may be proper that the suit proceed in the usual manner.

Proceedings by or against Partnership Firms.

XIV. Proceedings by or on behalf or against a partnership, solely or jointly, must be taken in the several names of the partners as individuals, and not in the name of the firm or otherwise: Provided always that where some of the members of a partnership carrying on business within the Colony are unknown, or are absent from the Colony, every such partnership may be sued in the name of any one or more members thereof within the jurisdiction, and every judgment obtained or order made in any such suit shall have the same effect and operation upon the persons and property, both moveable and immoveable, of such partnership and of the several members thereof, whether such property be joint or separate, as if every member of such co-partnership had been actually, and in fact, a defendant in the action, and had been duly served with process, and every such judgment or order may be enforced as in ordinary cases of the like nature.

Guardian for Purpose of Suit.

XV.-Where on default made by a defendant in eutering an appearance to the suit after due service of the writ of summons, it appears to the Court that he is an infant, or a person of weak or unsound wind (not so found by inquisition), so that he is unable of himself to defend the suit, the Court may, on the application of the plaintiff, or of its own motion, appoint some fit person to be guardian of the defendant for the purpose of the suit, by whom he may defend the same.

hearing, shall have regard to the fact of the payment into Court having been made and not accepted.

Set-off.

XXXVI.-A defence of set-off to a claim for money, whether in debt or in damages, must be accompanied by a statement of the particulars of the set-off; and if pleaded as a sole defence, unless extending to the whole amount of the plaintiff's claim, must also be accompanied by payment into Court of the amount to which, on the defendant's showing, the plaintiff is entitled; and in default of such payment, the defendant shall be liable to bear the costs of the suit, even if he succeeds in his defence to the extent of the set-off pleaded,

2.- Where a defendant in his answer raises a defence by way of set-off which, in the opinion of the Court, is not admissible as set off, the Court may either before or at the hearing, on his application, give him liberty to withdraw such defence, and to file a cross-petition, and may make such order for the hearing of the suit and cross-suit, together or otherwise, on such terms as to costs and other matters as seem just.

Counter-Claim.

XXXVII.-Where a defendant in his answer raises any specific defence, and it appears to the Court that on such defence being established he may be entitled to relief against the plaintiff in respect of the subject matter of the suit, the Court may, on the application of the defendant, either before or at the hearing, if under the circumstances of any case it thinks fit, give liberty to him to file a counter-claim by a cross-petition in the same suit, asking for relief against the plaintiff, and may make such order for the hearing of the suit and counter-claim, together or otherwise, and in such manner and on such terms as to costs and other matters as seem just, and may, if in any case it seems fit, require the plaintiff to give security to the satisfaction of the Court (by deposit or otherwise) to abide by and perform the decision of the Court on the counter-claim.

Specific Answer.

XXXVIII.-Where the defendant does not answer (an answer not being dispensed with in manner aforesaid), or put in an answer amounting only to a general denial of the plaintiff's claim, the plaintiff may apply by summons for an order to compel him to answer specifically to the several material allegations in the petition; and the Court, if such allegations are briefly, positively, separately and distinctly made, and it thinks that justice so requires, may grant such an order.

2.-The defendant shall, within the time limited by such order, put in his answer accordingly, and shall therein answer the several material allegations in the petition, either admitting or denying the truth of such allegations seriatim, as the truth or falsehood of each is within his knowledge, or (as the case may be), stating as to any one or more of the allegations that he does not know whether such allegation or allegations is or are true or otherwise.

3.-The defendant so answering may also set up by such answer any defence to the suit, and may explain away the effect of any admission therein made by any other allegation of facts.

Replication.

XXXIX.-No replication or other pleading after answer shall be allowed, except by special leave of the Court.

2.-Where the plaintiff considers the contents of the answer to be such as to render an amendment of the petition necessary or desirable, he may obtain ex parte an order to amend the petition, on satisfying the Court that the amendment is not intended for the purpose of delay or vexation, but because it is considered to be material for the plaintiff's case.

3.-Notice of the amendment shall be given to the defendant within such time and in such manner as the Court in each case directs.

Settlement of Issues.

XL.-At any time before or at the hearing, the Court may, if it thinks fit, the application of any party, or of its own motion, proceed to ascertain and demine what are the material questions in controversy between the parties, alth

same are not distinctly or properly raised by the pleadings, and may reduce such questions into writing and settle them in the form of issues; which issues, when settled, may state questions of law on admitted facts, or questions of disputed fact, or questions partly of the one kind and partly of the other.

　　　2.-In settling issues, the Court may order or allow the striking out or amendment of any pleading or part of a pleading, so that the pleadings may finally correspond with the issues settled, and may order or allow the striking out or amendment of any pleading, or part of a pleading, that appears to be so framed as to prejudice, embarrass, or delay the trial of the cause.

3.-Where the application to the Court to settle issues is made at any stage of the proceedings at which all parties are actually present before the Court, either in person or by counsel or attorney, or at the hearing, the application may be made viva voce, and may be disposed of at once, otherwise the application must be made and disposed of on summons. It shall be in the discretion of the Court to direct which issues shall be first disposed of.

4. At any time before the decision of the case, the Court may amend the issues or frame additional issues on such terms as to it shall seem fit, and all such amendments as may be necessary for the purpose of determining the real question or controversy between the parties shall be so made.

Interrogatories-Discovery-Unwilling Witness.

　　　XLI. In all suits, the plaintiff and the defendant, or either of them, may, by order of the Court, deliver to the opposite party or his attorney (provided such party, if not a body corporate, would be liable to be called and examined as a witness upon such matter), interrogatories in writing upon any matter as to which discovery may be sought, and require such party, or in the case of a body corporate, any of the officers of such body corporate, within ten days to answer the questions in writing by affidavit, to be sworn and filed in the ordinary way; and any party or officer omitting, without just cause, sufficiently to answer all questions as to which a discovery nay be sought within the above time, or such extended time as the Court shall allow, shall be deemed to have committed a contempt of the Court, and shall be liable to be proceeded against accordingly.

　　　2. The application for such order shall be made upon an affidavit of the party proposing to interrogate, and his attorney or agent, or in the case of a body corporate, of their attorney or agent, stating that the deponent believes that the party proposing to interrogate, whether plaintiff or defendant, will derive material benefit in the cause from the discovery which he seeks, that there is a good cause of action or defence upon the merits, and if the application be made on the part of the defendant, that the discovery is not sought for the purpose of delay: Provided that where it shall happen, from unavoidable circumstances, that the plaintiff or defendant cannot join in such affidavit, the Court may, if it think fit, upon affidavit of such circumstances by which the party is prevented from so joining therein, allow and order that the interrogatories may be delivered without such affidavit.

3.-In case of omission, without just cause, to answer sufficiently such written interrogatories, it shall be lawful for the Court, at its discretion, to direct an oral examination of the interrogated party, as to such point as they or he may direct, before the Court or Registrar; and the Court may, by such order, or any subsequent order, command the attendance of such party before the person appointed to take such examination, for the purpose of being orally examined as aforesaid, or the production of any writings or other documents to be mentioned in such order, and may impose therein such terms as to such examination, and the costs of the application, and of the proceedings thereon, and otherwise, as to such Court shall seem just.

4.-The Court may, on the application of the party interrogated, strike out or permit to be amended any interrogatory which, in the opinion of the Court, may be exceptionable.

5.-Any party to a suit, or other civil proceeding, requiring affidavit of a person who refuses to make an affidavit, may apply by summons for an order to such person to appear and be examined upon oath before the Court or Registrar, to whom

it may be most convenient to refer such examination, as to the matters concerning which he has refused to make an affidavit; and the Court may, if it think fit, make such order for the attendance of such person before the person therein appointed to take such examination, for the purpose of being examined as aforesaid, and for the production of any writings or documents to be mentioned in such order, and may thereupon impose such terms as to such examination, and the costs of the application and proceedings therein, as it shall think just.

6. Upon the application of either party to any suit or other civil proceeding upon an affidavit of such party of his belief that any document, to the production of which he is entitled for the purpose of discovery or otherwise, is in the possession or power of the opposite party, it shall be lawful for the Court to order that the party against whom such application is made, or if such party is a body corporate, that some officer to be named of such body corporate, shall answer on affidavit, stating what documents he or they has or have in his or their possession or power relating to the matters in dispute, or what he knows as to the custody they or any of them are in, and whether he or they objects or object (and if so on what grounds), to the production of such as are in his or their possession or power; and upon such affidavit being made, the Court may make such further order thereon as shall be just.

7.-All such interrogatories, answers, depositions, and affidavits as aforesaid, shall be filed in Court in the suit or other civil proceeding, and the evidence so taken may

be used at the hearing thereof, saving just exceptions.

4. There shall be filed with the motion-paper all affidavits on which the person moving intends to rely.

5. No other evidence can be used in support of the motion, except by leave of the Court.

　　　3.-In case it shall appear to the satisfaction of the Court that there is reasonable ground to believe that such document or thing will not be produced pursuant to such notice, the Court may make an order for the production of the same at the hearing of the suit by the party served with such notice.

4.-A witness, whether a party or not, shall not be bound to produce any document relating to affairs of State, the production of which would be contrary to good policy, nor any document held by him for any other person who would not be bound to produce it if in his own possession.

5.-Any person present in Court, whether a party or not, may be called upon and compelled by the Court to give evidence, and produce any document then and there in his actual possession, or in his power, in the same manner and subject to the same rules as if he had been summoned to attend and give evidence, or to produce such document, and may be punished in like manner for any refusal to obey the order of the Court.

CHAPTER IX. THE HEARING.

Non-attendance of Parties.

　　　LXL-When a cause in the hearing-paper has been called on, if neither party attend in person or by counsed, the Court, on being satisfied that the plaintiff has received notice of the hearing, shall, unless it sees good reason to the contrary, strike the cause out of the hearing-paper.

2. If the plaintiff does not attend in person or by counsel, the Court, on being. satisfied that the plaintiff has received notice of the hearing, shall, unless it sees good reason to the contrary, strike out the cause, and make such order as to costs in favour of any defendant appearing as seems just.

3.-If the plaintiff attends, but the defendant or any of the defendants does or do not attend in person or by counsel, the Court shall, before hearing the cause; inquire into the service of the writ of summons and petition and of notice of hearing on the absent party or parties.

4.-If not satisfied as to the service on every party, the Court shall direct such further service to be made as it shall think fit, and adjourn the hearing of the cause, for that purpose.

5.-If satisfied that the defendant or the several defendants has or have been duly served with the writ of summons and petition, and with notice of the hearing, the Court may proceed to hear the cause notwithstanding the absence of the defendant, or any of the defendants, and may, on the evidence adduced by the plaintiff, give such judgment as appears just. The Court, however, shall not be bound to do so, but may order the hearing to stand over to a further day, and direct fresh notice to be given to the defendant or defendants, in case justice seems to require an adjourn-

ment.

　　　6.-In all cases where the plaintiff has obtained leave to proceed ex parte for want of appearance to the writ of summons, and in all other cases where the Court bears a cause and judgment is given in the absence of and against any defendant, the Court may afterwards, if it thinks fit, on such terms as seem just, set aside the judgment and re-hear the cause, on its being established by evidence on oath to the satisfaction of the Court that the defendant's absence was not wilful, and that he has a defence upon the merits.

7.-Where a cause is struck out by reason of the absence of the plaintiff, it shall not be restored without leave of the Court, until it has been set down again at the bottom of the general hearing list, and been transferred in its regular turn to the hearing-paper.

6. The Court may, if it thinks fit, make it a condition of granting a re-hearing or new trial that the trial shall be with a jury.

　　　7.-The discovery of new matter or evidence which was not within the knowledge of the applicant, or could not be adduced by him at the trial, may be a ground for a new trial, but the improper admission or rejection of evidence shall not be a ground of itself for a new trial or reversal of any judgment in any case, if it shall appear to the Court, that, independently of the evidence objected to and admitted, there was sufficient evidence to justify the judgment, or that if the rejected evidence bad been received it ought not to have varied the judgment.

8. When an application for a review of judgment, re-hearing, or new trial is granted, a note thereof shall be made in the register of suits, and the Court shall give such order in regard thereto, as it may deem proper in the circumstances of the case.

3. If the decree be for money, it shall be enforced by the imprisonment of the party against whom the decree is made, or by the attachment and sale of his property, or by botb, if necessary; and if such party be other than a defendant, the decree may be enforced against him in the same manner as a decree may by enforced against a defendant.

　4. If the decree be for the execution of a deed, or for the indorsement of a negotiable instrument, and the party ordered to execute or indorse such deed or negotiable instrument shall neglect or refuse so to do, any party interested in having the same executed or indorsed may prepare a deed or indorsement of the instrument in accordance with the terms of the decree, and tender the same to the Court for execution upon the proper stamp (if any is required by law), and the signature thereof by the Registrar shall have the same effect as the execution or indorsement thereof by the party ordered to execute.

5.-If the decree be against a party as the representative of a deceased person, and such decree be for money to be paid out of the property of the deceased person, it may be executed by the attachment and sale of any such property, or, if no such property can be found and the defendant fail to satisfy the Court that he has duly applied such property of the deceased as shall be proved to have come into his possession, the decree may be executed against the defendant to the extent of the property not duly applied by him in the same manner as if the decree had been against the defendant personally.

　6.-Whenever a person has become liable as security for the performance of a decree, or of any part thereof, the decree may be executed against such person to the extent to which he has rendered himself liable, in the same manner as a decree may be enforced against a defendant.

　　　3.-Whenever a suit shall be pending in the Court against the holder of a previous decree of the Court, by the person against whom the decree was made, the Court may, if it appear just and reasonable to do so, stay execution of the decree either absolutely or on such terms as it may think just, until a decree shall be made in the pending suit.

　　　4.-If any person against whom a decree has been made shall die before execution bas been fully had thereon, application for execution thereof may be made against the legal representative, or the estate of the person so dying as aforesaid; and if the Court shall think proper to grant such application, the decree may be executed accordingly.

　　　2.-When such notice is issued, if the party shall not appear, or shall not show sufficient cause to the satisfaction of the Court why the decree should not be forthwith executed, the Court shall order it to be executed accordingly.

investigating the complaint, and shall summon the party against whom the complaint is made to answer the same.

　2. If it shall appear to the satisfaction of the Court that the obstruction or resistance was occasioned by the defendant, or by some person at his instigation, on the ground that the land or other immoveable property is not included in the decree, or on any other ground, the Court shall enquire into the matter of the complaint, and make such order as may be proper under the circumstances of the case.

　3. If the Court shall be satisfied, after such investigation of the facts of the case as it may deem proper, that the resistance or obstruction complained of was without any just cause, and that the complainant is still resisted or obstructed in obtaining effectual possession of the property adjudged to him by the decree, by the defendant or some person at his instigation, the Court may, at the instance of the plaintiff, and without prejudice to any proceedings to which such d fendant or other person may be liable for such resistance or obstruction, commit the defendant or such other person to prison for such period not exceeding thirty days as may be necessary to prevent the continuance of such obstruction or resistance.

　4.-If it shall appear to the satisfaction of the Court that the resistance or obstruction to the execution of the decree has been occasioned by any person, other than the defendant, claiming bonâ fide to be in possession of the property on his own account or on account of some other person than the defendant, the claim shall be numbered and registered as a suit between the decr e-bolder as plaintiff and the claimant as defendant, and the Court shall, without prejudice to any proceedings to which the claimant may be liable for such resistance or obstruction, proceed to in- vestigate the claim in the same manner and with the like power as if a suit for the property had been instituted by the decree-holder against the claimant under the pro- visions of this Code, and shall make such order for staying execution of the decree, or executing the same as it may deem proper in the circumstances of the case.

　5.-If any person other than the defendant shall be dispossessed of any land or other immoveable property in execution of a decree, and such person shall dispute the right of the decree-holder to dispossess bim of such property under the decree, on the ground that the property was bond fide in his possession on his own account, or on account of some other person than the defendant, and that it was not included in the decree, or if included in the decree, that he was not a party to the suit in which the decree was made, he may apply to the Court within one month from the date of such dispossession; and if, after examining the applicant, it shall appear to the Court that there is probable cause for making the application, the application shall be num- bered and registered as a suit between the applicant as plaintiff and the decree-holder as defendant, and the Court shall proceed to investigate the matter in dispute in the same manner and with the like powers as if a suit for the property had been instituted by the applicant against the decree-holder.

　6. The decision of the Court under the provisions contained in either of the last preceding paragraphs shall be of the same force or effect as a decree in an ordinary suit; and no fresh suit shall be entertained between the same parties or persons claiming under them in respect of the same cause of action.

can satisfy the Court that there is reasonable ground to believe that the amount of the judgment may be raised by the mortage of the land, or by letting it on lease, or by disposing by private sale of a portion of the land, or any other property belonging to the judgment debtor, it shall be competent to the Court, on the application of the judgment debtor, to postpone the sale for such period as it may think proper, to enable the judgment debtor to raise the amount. In any case in which a manager st all be appointed under this section, such manager shall be bound to render due and proper accounts of his receipts and disbursements, from time to time, as tue Court may direct.

13. If the judgment debtor shall be absent from the Colony, and it shall appear to the satisfaction of the Court that the public sale of any of his property which has been attached, consisting of lands, houses, or any interest therein, is objectionable, and that satisfaction of the decree may be made within a reasonable period by a temporary alienation of such property, the Court may, of its own motion, instead of proceeding to a public sale of such property, order that provision be made for the satisfaction of the decree by mortgage thereof, and may authorize the Regi-trar, if necessary, to execute the mortgage deed in lieu of the judgment debtor, or any other necessary parties, and may make such orders in relation to such mortgage as may be requisite to carry out this provision; and the execution of such mortgage deed by the Registrar shall have the same effect as the execution thereof by the judgment debtor, or other necessary parties.

14. If the amount decreed with costs and all charges and expenses which may be incurred by the attachment be paid into Court, or if satisfaction of the decree be otherwise made, an order shall be issued for the withdrawal of the attachment; and if the defendant shall desire it, and shall deposit in Court a sum sufficient to cover the expense, the order shall be notified in the same manner as herein before prescribed for the notification of the attachment; and such steps shall be taken as may be necessary for staying further proceedings in execution of the decrec.

Of Claims to Attached Property.

LXXVII.-In the event of any claim being preferred to, or objection offered against, the sale of lands or any other immoveable or moveable property which may have been attached in execution of a d cree or under any order for attachment made before judgment, as not liable to be sold in execution of a decree against the defendant, the Court shall, subject to the proviso contained in the next succeeding section, proceed to investigate the same with the like powers as if the claimant had been originally made a defendant to the suit, and if it shall appear to the satisfaction of the Court that the land or other immoveable property was not in the possession of the party against whom execution is sought, or of some person in trust for him, or in the occupancy of persons paying rent to him at the time when the property was attached, or that bing in the possession of the party himself at such time, it was so in his possession not on his own account, or as his own property, but on account of, or in trust for some other person, the Court shall make an order for releasing the said property from attachment. But if it shall appear to the satisfaction of the Court that the land or other immoveable or moveable property was in possession of the party against whom execution is sought, as his own property, and not on account of any other person, or was in the possession of some person in trust for him, or in the occupancy of persons paying rent to him at the time when the property was attached, the Court shall disallow the claim. The party against whom the order may be given shall be at liberty to bring a suit to establish his right at any time within one year from the date of the order.

2. The claim or objection shall be made at the earliest opportunity to the Court; and if the property to which the claim or objection applies shall have been advertised for sale, the sale may (il it appears necessary) be postponed fothe purpose of making the investigation mentioned in the last preceding parag Provided that no such investigation shall be made if it appear that the making the claim or objection was designedly and unnecessarily delayed, with a view to

　　　2. At any time within ten days from the date of the sale of any immoveable property, application may be made to the Court to set aside the sale on the ground of any material irregularity in the conduct of the sale, but no sale shall be set aside on the ground of such irregularity unless the applicant shall prove to the satisfaction of the Court that he has sustained substantial injury by reason of such irregularity.

　　　3. If no such application as is mentioned in the last preceding paragraph be made, the sale shall be deemed absolute. If such application be made and the objection be disallowed, the Court shall make an order confirming the sale; and in like manner if the objection be allowed, the Court shall make an order setting aside the sale for irregularity.

4. Whenever a sale of immoveable property is set aside, the purchaser shall be entitled to receive back any money deposited or paid by him on account of such sale with or without interest, to be paid by such parties and in such manner as it may appear proper to the Court to direct in each instance.

　　　5.-After a sale of immoveable property shall have become absolute in manner aforesaid, the Court shall grant a certiâcate to the person who may have been declared the purchaser at such sale, to the effect that he has purchased the right, title, and interest of the defendant in the property sold, and such certificate shall be liable to the same stamp duty as an assignment of the same property, and when duly stamped as aforesaid, shall be taken and deemed to be a valid transfer of such right, title, and interest and may be registered in the Land Office under Ordinance No. 3 of 1844.

　　　8. If the property sold shall consist of a house, land, or other immoveable pro- perty, in the occupancy of a defendant, or some person on his behalf, or of some person claiming under a title created by the defendant subsequently to the attachment of such property, the Court shall, on the application of the purchaser, order delivery thereof to be made by putting the party to whom the house, land, or other immoveable property may have been sold, or any person whom he may appoint to receive delivery on his behalf, in possession thereof, and, if need be, by removing any person who may

rse to vacate the same.

9.-If the property sold shall consist of a house, laud, or other immoveable pro- perty in the occupancy of other persons entitled to occupy the same, the Court shall, n the application of the purchaser, order delivery thereof to be made by affixing a opy of the certificate of sale in some conspicuous place on the house, land, or other mmoveable property, or in the Supreme Court building.

10.-Where the property sold shall consist of debts not being negotiable instru- ents, or of shares in any public company or corporation, the Court shall, on the oplication of the purchaser, make an order prohibiting the creditor from receiving e debts and the debtor from making payment thereof to any person or persons cept the purchaser, or prohibiting the person in whose name the shares may be anding, from making any transfer of the shares to any person except the purchaser,

11.-Were the property sold shall consist of negotiable securities of which actual seizure has been made, the same shall be delivered to the purchaser thereof.

12. If the indorsement, transfer, or conveyance of the party in whose name any negotiable security or any share in a public company or corporation is standing, or in whom any mortgage or equity of redemption shall be vested, shall be required to transfer the same, the Registrar may indorse the s curity or the certificate of the share, or may execute such other document as may be necessary for transferring the same. The indorsement or execution shall be in the following form, or to the like effect:- "A. B. by C. D, Registrar of the Supreme Court of Hongkong; in a suit by E. F. versus A. B." Until the transfer of such security or share, the Court may, by order. appoint some person to receive any interest or dividend due thereon, and to sign receipts for the same; and any indorsement made, or document executed, or receipts signed, as aforesaid, shall be as valid and effectual for all purposes, as if the same had been made or executed or signed by the party himself.

13.-If the purchaser of any immoveable property sold in execution of a decree shall, notwithstanding the order of the Court, be resisted or obstructed in obtaining possession of the property, the provisions contained in Section LXXV., relating to resistance or obstruction to a party in whose favour a suit has been decreed in ob- taining pos ession of the property adjudged to 'im, shall be applicable in the case of such resistance or obstruction.

14-If it shall appear that the resistance or obstruction to the delivery of possession was occasioned by any person other than the defendant, claiming a right to the possession of the property sold as proprietor, mortgagee, lessee, or un ler any other title, or in the delivery of posses-ion to the purchaser, any such person claiming as aforesaid shall be dispossessed, the Court, on the complaint of the par- chaser, or of such person claiming as aforesaid, if made within one month from the date of such resistance or obstruction, or of such dispossession, as the case may be, shall enquire into the matter of the complaint, and make such order as may be proper in the circumstances of the case. The party against whom it is given shall be at liberty to bring a suit to establish his right at any time within one year from the date thereof.

2. In case of the serious illness of any defendant imprisoned under a decree for debt, it shall be lawful for the Court, on the certificate of the Colonial Surgeon, to make an order for the removal of the defenda t to the Government Civil Hopital, and for his treatment there under custody until further order, and the period of defendant's stay in hospital shall be counted as part of h's term of imprisonment debt, and his subsistence money shall be paid as if no such order had been made.

3.

The application shall contain a full account of all property of whatever nature belonging to the applicant, whether in expectancy or in possession, and whether held exclusively by himself or jointly with others, or by others in trust for him (except the necessary wearing apparel of himself aud his family and the necessary implements of his trade), and of the places respectively where such property is to be found; and such application shall be subscribed by the applicant and verified on affidavit.

　　　6.-On such application b iny made, the Court shall cause the execution creditor to be furnished with a copy of the account of the defendant's property and shall fix a reasonable period within which the execution creditor may cause the whole or any part of such property to be attached and sold, or may make proof that the defendant's inability to satisfy the decree is attributable to unjustifiable extravagance in living, or that the defendant, for the purpose of procuring his discharge without satisfying the decree, has wilfully concealed property, or his right or interest therein, or fraudulently transferred or removed property, or committed any other act of bad faith. If the execution creditor shall fail to make such proof, the Court shall cause the defendant to be set at liberty. If the execution creditor shall within the time specified, or at any subsequ nt period, make such proof to the satisfaction of the Court, the Court shall retain the defendant in confinement unless he shall have already been in confinement on account of the decree for the full term of his imprisonment.

The Court, unless it sees good reason to the contrary, shall, on such application, make an order accordingly.

　　　2. The Court shall not grant the order except on evidence on oath or affidavit establishing such a case, as if uncontradicted, and unexplained, would justify the immediate commitment of the person disobeying the decree or order.

　　　3.-A certified copy of the order and of the affidavit or deposition on which the order is granted shall be served on the party to whom the order is directed.

　　　4.-On the return-day of the order, if the person to whom it is directed does not attend and does not establish a sufficient excuse for not attending, and if the Court is satisfied that the order has been duly served, or if he attends and does not show cause to the satisfaction of the Court why he should not be punished for the disobedience, the Court may issue a warrant for bis commitment to prison.

CONVENTION AND TREATY OF PEACE BETWEEN GREAT

BRITAIN AND CHINA, 1858-1860.

PROCLAMATION.

The Earl of Elgin and Kincardine, K.T., G.C.B., Her Britannic Majesty's Special Ambassador in China, &c., &c., has much satisfaction in informing Her Majesty's subjects in China that a Convention for re-establishment of Peace between Great Britain and China was concluded, and the Ratification of the Treaty of Tientsin of the Year 1858, duly exchanged at Peking, ou the 24th of October, 1860.

The Earl of Elgin now publishes for general information the text of the said Convention and Treaty, together with the text of the tariff and rules which form part of the Treaty, and were agreed to by him and the Plenipotentiaries of the Emperor of China at Shanghai, on the 8th of November, 1858.

The Earl of Elgin trusts that by a considerate treatment of the natives with whom they may come into contact, and a faithful observance of their obligations towards the Chinese Gevernment, Her Majesty's subjects in China will do what in them lies to reconcile the people and authorities of China to the changes in their relations with foreigners which are about to be introduced under the international compacts herewith promulgated-changes which, if they be carried into effect in such manner as to afford greater scope to the commercial activity of the Chinese people, without doing uunecessary violence to their habits and traditions, will, it may be hoped, prove beneficial to them, and to all who have lealings with them.

Due notice will be given whenever the arrangements for carrying into execution the provisions of this Convention and Treaty, at the Ports thereby opened to British Trade, shall be completed.

XXXI.-No tonnage-dues shall be payable on boats employed by British subjects in the conveyance of passengers, baggage, letters, articles of provision, or other articles not subject to duty, between any of the open ports.

TIENTSIN TREATY, 1858.

Art. XXXV.-Any British merchant vessel arriving at one of the open ports shall be at liberty to engage the services of a pilot to take her into port. In like manner, after she has discharged all legal dues and duties and is ready to take her departure, she shall be allowed to select a pilot to conduct her out of port.

Art. XXXVI.-Whenever a British merchant vessel shall arrive off one of the open ports, the Superintendent of Customs shall depute one or more Customs' officers to guard the ship. They shall either live in a boat of their own, or stay on board the ship, as may best suit their convenience. Their food and expenses shall be supplied then from the Custom-house, and they shall not be entitled to any fees whatever from the master or consignee. Should they violate this regulation, they shall be punished proportionately to the amount exacted.

Art. XXXVII.-Within twenty-four hours after the arrival, the ship's papers, bills of lading, &c., shall be lodged in the bands of the Consul, who will within a further period of twenty-four hours report to the Superintendent of Customs the name of the ship, her registered tonnage, and the nature of her cargo. If, owing to neglect on the part of the master, the above rule is not complied with, within forty-eight hours after the ship's arrival, he shall be 1 able to a fine of fifty taels for every day's delay; the total amount of penalty, however, shall not exceed two hundred taels.

The master will be responsible for the correctness of the manifest, which shall contain a full and true account of the particulars of the cargo on board. For presenting a false manifest, he will subject himself to a fine of five hundred taels; but be will be allowed to correct, within twenty-four hours after delivery of it to the Customs' officers, any mistake he may discover in his manifest, without incurring this penalty.

Art. XXXVIII.--After receiving from the Consul the report in due form, the Superintendent of Customs shall grant the vessel a permit to open batches. If the master shall open batches, and begin to discharge any goods without such permission, he shall be fined five hundred taels, and the goods discharged shall be confiscated wholly.

Årt. XXXIX.-Any British merchant who has cargo to land or ship, must apply · to the Superintendent of Customs for a special permit. Cargo landed or shipped without such permit, will be liable to confiscation.

Art. XL-No transhipment from one vessel to another can be made without special permission, under pain of confiscation of the goods so transhipped.

Art. XLI.-When all dues and duties shall have been paid, the Superintendent of Customs shall give a port-clearance, and the Consul shall then return the ship's papers, so that she may depart on ber voyage.

Art. XLII.-With respect to articles subject, according to the tariff, to an ad valorem duty, if the British merchant cannot agree with the Chinese officer in affixing a value, then each party shall call two or three merchants to look at the goods, and the highest price at which any of these merchants would be willing to purchase them shall be assumed as the value of the goods.

Art. XLIII.-Duties shall be charged upon the net weight of each article, making a deduction for the tare, weight of congee, &c. To fix the tare on any articles, such as tea, if the British merchant cannot agree with the Custom-house officer, then each party shall choose so many chests out of every hundred, which being first weighed in gross, shall afterwards be tared, and the average tare upon these chests shall be assumed as the tare upon the whole; and upon this principle shall the tare be fixed upon all other goods and packages. If there should be any other points in dispute which cannot be settled, the British merchant may appeal to his Consul, who will communicate the particulars of the case to the Superintendent of Customs, that it may be equitably arranged. But the appeal must be made within twenty-four hours or it will not be attended to. While such points are still unsettled, the Superintendent of Customs shall postpone the insertion of the same in his books.

Art. XLIV. Upon all damaged goods a fair reduction of duty shall be allowed, proportionate to their deterioration. If any disputes arise, they shall be settled in the manner pointed out in the clause of this Treaty having reference to articles which pay duty ad valorem.

　　　Art. XLV.-British merchants who may have imported merchandise into any of the open ports, and paid the duty thereon, if they desire to re-export the same, shall be entitled to make application to the Superintendent of Customs, who in order to prevent fraud on the revenue, shall cause examination to be made by suitable officers, to see that the duties paid on such goods, as entered in the Custom-house books, correspond with the representation made, and that the goods remain with their original marks unchanged. He shall then make a memorandum on the port-clearance of the gools, and of the amount of duties paid, and deliver the same to the merchant, and shall also certify the facts to the officers of Customs of the other ports. All which being done, on the arrival in port of the vessel in which the goods are laden, everything being found on examination there to correspond, she shall be permitted to break bulk, and land the said goods, without being subject to the payment of any additional duty thereon. But if, on such examination, the Superintendent of Customs shall detect any fraud on the revenue in the case, then the goods shall be subject to confiscation by the Chinese Government.

British merchants desiring to re-export duty-paid imports to a foreign country shall be entitled, on complying with the same conditions as in the case of re-exporta- tion to another port in China, to a draw back-certificate, which shall be a valid tender to the Customs in payment of import or export duties.

Foreign grain brought into any port of China in a British ship, if no part thereof has been landed, may be re-exported without hindrance.

Art. XLVI. The Chinese authorities at each port shall adopt the means they may judge most proper to prevent the revenue suffering from fraud or smuggling.

　　　Art. XLVII.-British merchant-vessels are not entitled to resort to other than the ports of trade declared open by this Treaty, they are not unlawfully to enter other ports in China or to carry on clandestine trade along the coast thereof. Any vessel violating this provision, shall, with her cargo, be subject to confiscation by the Chinese Government.

Art. XLVIII.-If any British merchant-vessel be concerned in smuggling, the goods, whatever their value or nature, shall be subject to confiscation by the Chinese authorities, and the ship may be prohibited from trading further, and sent away as soon as her account shall have been adjusted and paid.

Art. XLIX.-All penalties enforced, or confiscations made, under this Treaty, shall belong and be appropriated to the public service of the Government of China.

Art. L.-All official communications, addressed by the Diplomatic and Consular Agents of Her Majesty the Queen to the Chinese authorities, shall, hencefort, be written in English. They will for the present be accompanied by a Chinese version, but it is understood that, in the event of there being any difference of meaning between the English and Chinese text, the English Government will hold the sense as expressed in the English text to be the correct sense. This provision is to apply to the Treaty now negotiated, the Chinese text of which has been carefully corrected by the English original.

Art. LI.-It is agreed henceforward the character "I" (barbarian) shall not be applied to the Government or subjects of Her Britannic Majesty, in any Chinese official document issued by the Chinese authorities, either in the capital or in the provinces.

Art. LII.-British ships of war coming for no hostile purpose, or being engaged in the pursuit of pirates, shall be at liberty to visit all ports within the dominions of the Emperor of China, and shall receive every facility for the purchase of provisions, procuring water, and, if occasion require, for the making of repairs. The commanders of such ships shall hold intercourse with the Chinese authorities, on terms of equality and courtesy.

Art. LIII.-In consideration of the injury sustained by native and foreign commerce from the prevalence of piracy in the seas of China, the high contracting parties agree to concert measures for its suppression.

　　Art. LIV.-The British Government and its subjects are hereby confirmed in all privileges, immunities, and advantages conferred on them by previous Treaties; and it is hereby expressly stipulated that the British Government and its subjects will be allowed free and equal participation, in all privileges, immunities, and advantages that

RULES.

RULE 1.-Unenumerated Goods.- Articles not enumera'el in the list of exports, but enumerated in the list of imports, when export d, will pay the amount of duty set against them in the list of imports: and similarly, articl ́s not enumerat d in the list of imports, but enumerated in the list of exports, when imported, will pay the amount of duty set against them in the list of exports.

Articles not enumerated in either list, or in the list of duty-free good, will pay an ad valorem duty of 5 per cent., calculated on their market value.

RULE 2.-Duty-free Goods.-Gold and silver bullion, foreign coins, flour, Indian meal, sago, biscuits, preserved meats and vegetables, cheese, butter, confectionery, foreign clothing, jewellery, plated-are, perfumery, sap of all kinds, cha coal, firewood, candles (foreign), tobacco (for ign), cigars (foreign), wine, beer, spirita, household stores, ship's stores, perso: al baggage, stationery, carpeting, druggeting, cutlery, foreign medicines, glass, and crystal ware.

The above pay no import or export duty, but, if tran-ported into the interior will, with the exception of personal baggage, gold and silver lullion, and foreign coins, pay a transit duty at the rate of 23 per cent. ad valorem.

A freight, or part freight of duty-free commodities (personal baggage, gold and silver bullion, and foreign coins, exc spted) will render the vessel carrying them, though no other cargo be on board, liable to tonnage du s.

RULE 3.-Contraband Goods.-Import and export trade is alike probibited in the following articl s :-gunpowder, shot, cannon, fowling-pieces, rifles, muskets, pistols, and all other munitions and implements of war, and salt.

BULE 4.-Weights and Measures. In the calculations of the Tariff, the weight of a picul of one hundred catties is heli to be equal to one hundred and thirty-three and one-third pounds avoirdupois; and the length of a chang of ten Chinese feet, to be equal to one hundred and forty-one English inches.

One Chinese chih is held to be equal 'o fourteen and one-tenth inches English; and four yards English, less three inches, to equal one chang.

RULE 5.-Regarding certain Commodities heretofore Contraband.-The restrictions affecting trade in opium, cash, grain, pulse, sulphur, brimston", saltpetre and spelter, are relaxed, under the following conditions:

-

I. Opium will henceforth pay thirty taels per picul import duty. The importer will sell it only at the port. It will be carried into the interior by Chinese only, and only as Chinese property; the foreign trader will not be allowed to accompany it. The provisions of Article IX. of the Treaty of Tientsin, by which British subjects are authorized to proceed in the interior with passports to trade, will not extend to it, nor will those of Article XXVIII. of the same treaty, by which the transit-dues are regulated. The transit-dues on it will be arranged as the Chinese Government see fit: nor in future revisions of the Tariff is the same rule of revision to be applied to opium as to other goods.

>

II. Copper Cash.-The exp rt of cash to any foreign port is prohibited; but it shall be lawful for British subjects to ship it at one of the open ports of China to another, on compliance with the following Rulation: The shipper shall give notice of the amount of cash he desires to ship, and the port of its destination, and shall bind himself, either by a bot: 1, with two sufficient sureties, or by depositing such other

security as may be deemed by the Customs satisfactory, to return, within six months from the date of clearance to the collector at the port of shipment, the certificate issued by him, with an acknowledgment thereon of the receipt of the cash at the port of destination by the collector at that port, who shall thereto affix his seal; or failing the production of the certificate, to forfeit a sum equal in value to the cash shipped. Cash will pay no duty inwards or outwards; but a freight or part freight of cash, though no other cargo be on bɔard, will render the vessel carrying it liable to pay tonnage dues.

III. The export of rice and all other grain whatsoever, native or foreign, no matter where grown or whence imported, to any foreign port, is prohibited; but these commodities may be carried by British merchants from one of the open ports of China to another, under the same conditions in respect of security as cash, on payment at the port of shipment of the duty specified in the Tariff.

　　　No import duty will be leviable on rice or grain; but a freight or part freight of rice or grain, though no other cargo be on board, will render the vessel importing it liable to tonnage dues.

　　　　IV. * The export of pulse and beancake from Tung-chau and Newchwang, under the British flag, is prohibited. From any other of the ports they may be shipped, on payment of the tariff duty, either to other ports of China, or to foreign countries.

V. Saltpetre, sulphur, brimstone, and spelter, being munitions of war, shail not be imported by Brit sh subjects, save at the requisition of the Chinese Government, or for sale to Chi. ese duly authorized to purchase them. No permit to land them will be issued until the Customs have proof that the necessary authority has been given to the purchaser. It shall not be lawful for British subjects to carry these commo lities up the Yang-tsze kiang, or into any port other than those open on the seaboard, nor to accompany them into the interior on behalf of Chinese. They must be sold at the ports only, and, except at the ports, they will be regarded as Chinese property.

Infractions of the conditions, as above set forth, under which trade in opium, cash, grain, pulse, saltpetre, brimstone, sulphur, and spelter may be henceforward carried on, will be punishable by confiscation of all the goods concerned.

　　　　RULE 6.- Liability of Vessels entering Port.-To the prevention of misunderstand- ing, it is agreed that the term of twenty-four hours, within which British vessels must be reported to the Consul under Article XXXVII. of the Treaty of Tientsin, shall be understood to commence from the time a British vessel comes within the limits of the port; as also the term of forty-eight hours allowed her by Article XXX. of the same Treaty to remain in port without payment of tonnage dues.

　　　　The limits of the ports shall be defined by the Customs, with all consideration for the convenience of trade, campatible with due protection of the revenue; also the limits of the anchorages within which landin and discharging is permitted by the Customs; and the same shall be notified to the Consul for public information.

RULE 7.-Transit Dues.-It is a reed that Article XXXVIII. of the Treaty of Tientsin shall be interpreted to declare the amounts of transit dues legally leviable upon merchandise imported or exported by British subjects, to be one-half of the tariff duties, except in the case of the duty-free goods liable to a transit duty of 24 per cen. ad valorem, as provided in Article II. of these Rules. Merchandise shall be cleared of its transit dues under the following conditions :-

CHINESE CUSTOMS' TARIFF.-RULES.

with all other necessary particulars, the Collector of Customs will, on due inspection made, and on receipt of the transit-duty due, issue a transit-duty certificate. This must be produced at every barrier station, and vised. No further duty will be leviable upon imports so certificated, no matter how distant the place of their destination.

In the case of Exports.-Produce purchased by a British subject in the interior will be inspected, and taken account of, at the first barrier it passes on its way to the port of shipment. A memorandum showing the amount of the produce and the port at which it is to be shipped, will be deposited there by the person in charge of the produce; he will then receive a certificate, which must be exhibited and viséd at every barrier, on his

way to the port of shipment. On the arrival of the produce at the barrier nearest the port, notice must be given to the Customs at the port, and the transit-dues due thereon being paid, it will be passed. On exportation the produce will pay the tariff- duty*.

Any attempt to pass goods inwards or outwards, otherwise than in compliance. with the rule here laid down, will render them liable to confiscation.

Unauthorised sale, in transitu, of goods that have been entered as above for a port, will render them liable to confiscation. Any attempt to pass goods in excess of the quantity specified in the certificate will render all the goods of the same denomination, named in the certificate, liable to confiscation. Permission to export produce, which cannot be proved to have paid its transit-dues, will be refused by the Customs until the transit-dues shall have been paid. The above being the arrange- ment agreed to regarding the transit-dues, which will thus be levied once and for all, the notification required under Article XXVIII. of the Treaty of Tientsin, for the information of British and Chinese subjects, is hereby dispensed with.

RULE 8.-Foreign Trade under Passport.-It is agreed that Article IX of the Treaty of Tientsin shall not be interpreted as authorising British subjects to enter the capital city of Peking for the purposes of trade.

RULE 9.-Abolition of the Meltage Fee. It is agreed that the percentage of one tael two mace, hitherto charged in excess of duty payments to defray the expenses of melting by the Chinese Government, shall be no longer levied on British subjects.

RULE 10.-Collection of Duties under one System at all Ports.-It being by Treaty at the option of the Chinese Government to adopt what means appear to it best suited to protect its revenue accruing on British trade, it is agreed that one uniform system shall be enforced at every port.

The high officer appointed by the Chinese Government to superintend foreign trade will, accordingly, from time to time, either himself visit, or will send a deputy to visit the different ports. The said high officer will be at liberty, of his own choice, and independently of the suggestion or nomination of any British authority, to select any British subject he may see fit to aid him in the administration of the Customs' revenue, in the prevention of smuggling, in the definition of port boundaries, or in discharging the duties of harbour master; also in the distribution of lights, buoys, beacons, and the like, the maintenance of which shall be provided for out of the tonuage-dues.

The Chinese Government will adopt what measures it shall find requisite to prevent smuggling upon the Yang-tsze-kiang, when that river shall be opened to trade.

Done at Shanghai, in the province of Kiang-su, this eighth day of November, in the year of our Lord eighteen hundred and fifty-eight, being the third day of the teuth moon of the eighth year of the reign of Hien-Fung.

RULES FOR JOINT INVESTIGATION IN CASES OF CONFISCATION AND FINE BY THE CUSTOM HOUSE

AUTHORITIES.*

Agreed to and Promulgated by the British Minister at Peking, 31st May, 1868.

RULE I.-It shall be the Rule for all business connected with the Custom House Department to be in the first instance transacted between the Commissioner of Customs and the Consul, personally or by letter; and procedure in deciding cases shall be taken in accordance with the following Regulations.

　　　RULE II. Whenever a ship or goods belonging to a foreign merchant is seized in a port in China by the Custom House officers, the seizure shall be reported without delay to the Kien-tub, or Chinese Superintendent of Customs. If be considers the seizure justifiable, he will depute the Shwui-wu-sze, or foreign Commissioner of Customs, to give notice to the party to whom the ship or goods are declared to belong, that they have been seized because such or such an irregularity has been committed, and that they will be confiscated, unless, before noon on a certain day, being the sixth day from the delivery of the notice, the Custom House authorities receive from the Consul an official application to have the case fully investigated.

　　　The merchant to whom the ship or goods belong, if prepared to maintain that the alleged irregularity has not been committed, is free to appeal, within the limited time, directly to the Commissioner, who is to inform the Superintendent. If satisfied with his explanations, the Superintendent will direct the release of the ship or goods; otherwise, if the merchant elect not to appeal to the Customs, or if, after receiving his explanations, the Superintendent still decline to release the ship or goods, he may appeal to his Consul, who will inform the Superintendent of the particulars of this appeal, and request him to name a day for them both to investigate and try the case publicly.

　　　RULE III.-The Superintendent, on receipt of the Consul's communication, will name a day for meeting at the Custom House; and the Consul will direct the merchant to appear with his witnesses there on the day named, and will himself on that day proceed to the Custom House. The Superintendent will invite the Consul to take his seat with him on the bench; the Commissioner of Customs will also be seated to assist the Superintendent.

　　　Proceedings will be opened by the Superintendent, who will call on the Customs' employés who seized the ship or goods to state the circumstances which occasioned the seizure, and will question them as to their evidence. Whatever the merchant may have to advance in contradiction of their evidence he will state to the Consul, who will cross-examine them for him. Such will be the proceedings in the interest of truth and equity. The Consul and Superintendent may, if they see fit, appoint deputies to meet at the Custom House in their stead, in which case the order of proceeding will be the same as if they were present in person.

　　　RULE IV.-Notes will be taken of the statements of all parties examined, a copy of which will be signed and sealed by the Consul and Superintendent. The room will then be cleared, and the Superintendent will inform the Consul of the cour-e he proposes to pursue. If he proposes to confiscate the vessel or goods, and the Consul dissents, the merchant may appeal and the Consul, having given notice of the appeal to the Superintendent, they will forward certified copies of the above notes to Peking,

the former to his Minister, and the latter to the Foreign Office for their decision.

If the Consul agrees with the Superintendent that the ship or goods ought to be ponfiscated, the merchant will not have the right of appeal; and in no case will the release of ship or goods entitle him to claim indemnity for their seizure, whether they be released after the investigation at the Custom House, or after the appeal to the high authorities of both nations at Peking.

RULE V. The case having been referred to superior authority, the merchaut interested shall be at liberty to give a bond, binding himself to pay the full value of

Majesty's Plenipotentiary.

RULES FOR JOINT INVESTIGATION.

the ship or goods attached should the ultimate decision be against him; which bond being sealed with the Consular seal, and deposited at the Custom House, the Super- intendent will restore to the merchant the ship or goods attached; and when the superior authorities shall have decided whether so much money is to be paid, or the whole of the property seized be confiscated, the merchant will be called on to pay accordingly. If he decline to give the necessary security, the ship or merchandise attached will be detained. But whether the decision of the superior authorities be favourable or not, the appellant will not be allowed to claim indemnity.

RULE VI.-When the act of which a merchant at any port is accused is not one involving the confiscation of ship or cargo, but is one which, by Treaty or Regulation, is punishable by fine, the Commissioner will report the case to the Superintendent, and at the same time cause a plaint to be entered in the Consular Court. The Consul will fix the day of the trial, and inform the Commissioner that he may then appear with the evidence and the witnesses in the case. And the Commissioner, either personally or by deputy, shall take bis seat on the bench, and conduct the case on behalf of the prosecution.

When the Treaty or Regulations affix a specific fine for the offence, the Consul shall on conviction give judgment for that amount, the power of mitigating the sentence resting with the Superintendent and Commissioner. If the defendant is acquitted, and the Commissioner does not demur to the decision, the ship or goods, if any be under seizure, shall at once be released, and the circumstances of the case be communicated to the Superintendent. The merchant shall not be put to any expense by delay, but he shall have no claim for compensation on account of hindrance in his business, for loss of inte est, or for demurrage. If a difference of opinion exists between the Commissioner and Consul, notice to that effect shall be given to the Superintendent, and copies of the whole proceedings forwarded to Peking for the consideration of their respective high authorities. Pending their decision, the owner of the property must file a bond in the Consular Court to the full value of the proposed fine, which will be sent to the Custom House authorities by the Consul, and the goods or ship will be released.

RULE VII.-If the Custom House authorities and Consul cannot agree as to whether certain duties are leviable or not, action must be taken as Rule V. directs, and the merchant must sign a bond for the value of the duties in question. The Consul will affix his seal to this document, and send it to the Custom House autho- rities, when the Superintendent will release the goods without receiving the duty; and these two functionaries will respectively send statements of the case to Peking,- one to his Minister, the other to the Foreign Office.

If it shall be decided there that no duty shall be levied, the Custom House authorities will return the merchant's bond to the Consul to be cancelled; but if it be decided that a certain amount of duty is leviable, the Consul shall require the merchant to pay it in at the Custom House.

RULE VIII.-If the Consul and the Custom House authorities cannot agree as to whether confiscation of a ship, or a cargo, or both of them together, being the property of a foreign merchant, shall take place, the case must be referred to Peking for the decision of the Foreign Office, and the Minister of his nation. Pending their decision, the merchant must, in accordance with Rule V., sign a bond for the amount, to which the Consul will affix his seal, and send it for deposit at the Custom House. As difference of opinion as to the value [of ship or goods] may arise, the valua tion of the merchant will be decisive; and the Custom House authorities may, if they see fit, take over either at the price aforesaid.

If after such purchase it be decided that the property seized ought to be con- fiscated, the merchant must redeem his bond by paying in at the Custom House the original amount of the purchase-money. If the decision be against confiscation, the bond will be returned to the Consul for transmission to the merchant, and the case then be closed. The sum paid to the Custom House authorities for ship or goods being regarded as their proper price, it will not be in the merchant's power, by a tender of the purchase-money, to recover them.

THE CHEFOO CONVENTION.

Signed, in the English and Chinese languages, at Chefoo, 13th September, 1878. Ratified by the Emperor of China 17th September, 1876.

The following Convention, though not yet ratified by the Home Government, has been formally approved with the exception of Articles 1 and 3 of Section III.:-

Agreement negotiated between Sir Thomas Wade, K.C.B., Her Britannic Majesty's Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary at the Court of China, and Li, Minister Plenipotentiary of His Majesty the Emperor of China, Senior Grand Secretary, Governor-General of the Province of Chih-li, of the First Class of the Third Order of Nobility.

　　　The negotiation between the Ministers above named has its origin in a despatch received by Sir Thomas Wade, in the Spring of the present year, from the Earl of Derby, Principal Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, dated 1st January, 1876. This contained instructions regarding the disposal of three questions, first, a satis- factory settlement of the Yunnan affair; secondly, a faith'ul fulfilment of engagements of last year respecting intercourse between the high officers of the two Governments; thirdly, the adoption of a uniform system in satisfaction of the understanding arrived at in the month of September, 1875 (8th moon of the 1st year of the reign Kwang Su), on the subject of rectification of conditions of trade. It is to this despatch that Sir Thomas Wade has referred himself in discussions on these questions with the Tsung-li Yamên, farther reference to which is here omitted as superfluous. The con- ditions now agreed to between Sir Thomas Wade and the Grand Secretary are as follow:

*

SECTION I.-Settlement of the Yunnan Case.

　　　1.-A Memorial is to be presented to the Throne, whether by the Tsung-li Yamên or by the Grand Secretary Li, is immaterial, in the sense of the memorandum pre- pared by Sir Thomas Wade. Before presentation the Chinese text of the Memorial is to be shown to Sir Thomas Wade.

　　　2.-The Memorial having been presented to the Throne, and the Imperial Decree in reply received, the Tsung-li Yamên will communicate copies of the Memorial and Imperial Decree to Sir Thomas Wade, to ether with copy of a letter from the Tsung-li Yamên to the Provincial Governments, instructing them to issue a proclama- tion that shall embody at length the above Memorial and Decree. Sir Thomas Wade will thereon reply to the effect that for two years to come officers will be sent by the British Minister to different places in the provinces to see that the proclamation is posted. On application from the British Minister or the Consul of any port instructed by him to make application, the high officers of the provinces will depute competent officers to accompany those so sent to the places which they go to observe.

　　　3.-In order to the framing of such regulations as will be needed for the conduct of the frontier trade between Burmah and Yünuan, the Memorial submitting the proposed settlement of the Yunnan affair will contain a request that an Imperial Decree be issued directing the Governor-General and Governor, whenever the British Government shall send officers to Yunnan, to select a competent officer of rank to confer with them and to conclude a satisfactory arrangement.

　　　4.-The British Government will be free for five years, from the 1st of January next, being the 17th day of the 11th moon of the 2nd year of the reign Kwang Su,

THE CHEFOO CONVENTION.

to station officers at Ta-li Fu, or at some other suitable place in Yünnan, to observe the conditions of trade; to the end that they may have information upon which to base the regulations of trade when these bave to be discussed. For the consideration and adjustment of any matter affecting British officers or subjects, these officers will be free to address themselves to the authorities of the province. The opening of the trade may be proposed by the British Government as it may find best at any time within the term of five years, or upon expiry of the term of five years.

Passports having been obtained last year for a Mission from India into Yunnan, it is open to the Viceroy of India to send such Mission at any time he may see fit.

5. The amount of indemnity to be paid on account of the families of the officers and others killed in Yünnan on account of the expenses which the Yünnan case has occasioned; and on account of claims of British merchants arising out of the action of officers of the Chinese Government up to the commencement of the present year, Sir Thomas Wade takes upon himself to fix at two hundred thousand Taels, payable on demand.

6. When the case is closed, an Imperial letter will be written expressing regret for what has occurred in Yunnan. The Mission bearing the Imperial Letter will proceed to England immediately. Sir Thomas Wade is to be informed of the constitution of this Mission for the information of his Government. The text of the Imperial Letter is also to be communicated to Sir Thomas Wade by the Tsung-li Yamên.

SECTION II.-Official Intercourse.

Under this heading are included the conditions of intercourse between bigh officers in the capital and the provinces, and between Consular officers and Chinese officials at the poits; also the conduct of judicial proceedings in mixed cases.

1.-In the Tsung-li Yamên's Memorial, of the 28th September, 1875, the Prince of Kung and the Minist rs stated that their object in presenting it had not been simply the transaction of business in which Chinese and Foreigners might be concerned; missions abroad and the question of diplomatic intercourse lay equally within their prayer.

To the prevention of farther misunderstanding upon the subject of intercourse and correspondence, the present conditions of both having caused complaint in the capital and in the provinces, it is agreed that the Tsung-li Yamên shall address a circular to the Legations, inviting Foreign Representatives to consider with them a code of etiquette, to the end that foreign officials in China, whether at the ports or elsewhere, may be treated with the same regard as is shown them when serving abroad in other courtries and as would be shown to Chinese agents serving so abroad. The fact that China is about to establish Missions and Consulates abroad renders an understanding on these points essential.

2. The British Tr. aty of 1858, Article XVI., lays down that "Chinese subjects who may be guilty of any criminal act towards British subjects shall be arrested and punished by Chinese authorities according to the laws of China."

"British subjects who may commit any crime in China shall be tried and punished by the Consul, or any other public functionary authorised thereto, according to the laws of Great Britain."

"Justice shall be equitably and impartially administered on both sides."

The words "functionary authorised thereto" are translated in the Chinese text "British Government."

In order to the fulfilment of its Treaty obligations, the British Government has established a Supreme Court at Shanghai, with a special code of rules, which it is now about to revise. The Chinese Government has established at Shanghai a Mixed Court; but the officer presiding over it, either from lack of power or dread of unpopularity, constantly fails to enforce his judgments.

It is now understood that the Tsung-li Yamên will write a circular to the Lega- tions, inviting Foreign Representatives at once to consider with the Tsung-li Yamên the measures needed for the more effective administration of justice at the Ports open to Trade.

3. It is agreed that, whenever a crime is committed affecting the person or property of a British subject, whether in the interior or at the open ports, the British Minister shall be free to send officers to the spot to be present at the investigation.

To the prevention of misunderstanding on this point, Sir Thomas Wade will write a Note to the above effect, to which the Tsung-li Yamên will reply, affirming that this is the course of proceeding to be adhered to for the time to come.

　　　It is farther understood that so long as the laws of the two countries differ from each other, there can be but one principle to guide judicial proceedings in mixed cases in China, namely, that the case is tried by the official of the defendant's nationality; the official of the plaintiff's nationality merely attending to watch the proceedings in the interests of justice. If the officer so attending be dissatisfied with the proceedings, it will be in his power to protest against them in detail. The law administered will be the law of the nationality of the officer trying the case. This is the meaning of the words hui t'ung, indicating combined action in judicial proceedings in Article XVI. of the Treaty of Tientsin; and this is the course to be respectively followed by the officers of either nationality.

-

SECTION III.-Trade.

　　　1. With reference to the area within which, according to the treaties in force, lekin ought not to be collected on foreign coods at the open ports, Sir Thomas Wade agrees to move his Government to allow the ground rented by foreigners (the so-called Concessions) at the different ports, to be regarded as the area of exemption from lekin; and the Government of China will thereupon allow I-ch'ang, in the province of Hu-pei; Wu-hu, in An-Hui; Wen-Chôw, in Che-Kiang; and Pei-hai (Pak-hoi), in Kwang-Tung to be added to the number of ports open to trade and to become Consular stations. The British Government will farther be free to send officers to reside at Ch'ung K'ing, to watch the conditions of British trade in Ssu-Ch'uen. British merchants will not be allowed to reside at Ch'ung K'ing, or to open establish- ments or warehouses there so long as no steamers have access to the port. When steamers have succeeded in ascending the river so far, farther arrangements can be taken into consideration.

　　　It is farther proposed as a measure of compromise that at certain points on the shore of the Great River, namely, Ta-t'ung and Ngan-Ching, in the province of Au- Hui; Hu-Kou, in Kiang-Si; Wu-sueh, Lu-chi-kou, and Sha-shih in Hu-Kwang; these being all places of trade in the interior, at which, as they are not open ports, foreign merchants are not legally authorised to land or ship goods, steamers shall be allowed to touch for the purpose of landing or shipping passengers or goods; but in all instances by means of native boats only and subject to the regulations in force affecting native trade.

　　　Produce accompanied by a half-duty certificate may be shipped at such points by the steamers, but may not be landed by them for sale. And at all such points, except in the case of imports accompanied by a transit duty certificate or exports similarly certificated, which will be severally passed free of lekin on exhibition of such certificates, lekin will be duly collected on all goods whatever by the native authorities. Foreign merchants will not be authorised to reside or open houses of business or warehouses at the places enumerated as ports of call.

　　　2.-At all ports open to trade, whether by earlier or later agreement, at which no settlement area has been previously defined, it will be the duty of the British Consul, acting in concert with his colleagues, the Consuls of other Powers, to come to an understanding with the local anthorities regarding the definition of the foreign settlement area.

3.-On opium, Sir Thomas Wade will move his Government to sanction an arrangement different from that affecting other imports. British merchants, when opium is brought into port, will be obliged to have it taken cognisance of by the Customs, and deposited in bond, either in a warehouse or a receiving hulk, until such time as there is a sale for it. The importer will then pay the tariff duty upon it and the purchaser the lekin; in order to the prevention of evasion of the duty. The

amount of lekin to be collected will be decided by the different Provincial Govern- ments according to the circumstances of each.

4.-The Chinese Government agrees that Transit Duty Certificates shall be framed under one rule at all ports, no difference being made in the conditions set forth therein; and, that so far as imports are concerned, the nationality of the person possessing and carrying these is immaterial. Native produce carried from an Inland Centre to a Port of Shipment, if bona fide intended for shipment to a foreign port, may be, by treaty, certificated by the British subject interested, and exempted by payment of the half-duty from all charges demanded upon it en route. If produce be not the property of a British subject, or is being carried to a port not for exportation, it is not entitled to the exemption that would be secured it by the exhibition of a Transit Duty Certificate. The British Minister is prepared to agree with the Tsung-li Yamên upon rules that will secure the Chinese Government against abuse of the privilege as affecting produce.

Tue words nei-ti, inland, in the clause of Article VII, of the Rules appended to the Tariff, regarding carriage of imports inland, and of native produce purchased inland, apply as much to places on the sea coasts and river shores, as to places in the interior not open to foreign trade; the Chinese Government having the right to make arrangements for the prevention of abuses thereat.

5.-Article XLV. of the Treaty of 1858 prescribes no limits to the term within which a drawback may be claimed upon duty paid Imports. The British Minister agrees to a term of three years, after expiry of which no drawback shall be claimed.

6.-The foregoing stipulations, that certain ports are to be opened to foreign trade, and that landing and shipping of goods at six places on the Great River is to be sanctioned, shall be given effect to within six months after receipt of the Imperial Decree approving the memorial of the Grand Secretary Li. The date for giving effect to the stipulations affecting exemption of imports from lekin taxation within the foreign settlements, and the collection of lekin upon opium by the Customs Inspec- torate at the same time as the Tariff Duty upon it, will be fixed as soon as the British Government has arrived at an understanding on the subject with other foreign Governments.

7.-The Government of Hongkong having long complained of the interference of the Canton Customs Revenue Cruisers with the junk trade of that Colony, the Chinese Government agrees to the appointment of a Commission to consist of a British Consul, an officer of the Hongkong Government, and a Chinese official of equal rank, in order to the establishment of some system that shall enable the Chinese Government to protect its revenue without prejudice to the interests of the Colony.

Art. III.-The official communications of the French diplomatic and consular agents with the Chinese authorities shall be written in French, but shall be accom- panied, to facilitate the service, by a Chinese translation, as exact as posssible, until such time as the Imperial Government of Peking, having interpreters speaking and writing French correctly, diplomatic correspondence shall be conducted in this language by the French agents and in Chinese by the officers of the empire. It is agreed that until then, and in case of difference in the interpretation, in re- ference to the French text and the Chinese text of the clauses heretofore agreed upon in the conventions made by common accord, it shall always be the original text and not the translation which shall be held correct.

In case of the contravention of the present article the Chinese Authorities, on the representation of the Consul or Consular Agent, shall advise as to the means of dissolving such associations, of which they are also bound to prevent the existence by the preceding prohibitions, so as to remove all that may stand in the way of free competition.

Art. XV.-When a French vessel arrives in the waters of one of the ports open to foreign trade she shall be at liberty to engage any pilot to take her immediately into the port, and, in the same manner, when, having discharged all legal charges, the shall be ready to put to sea, she shall not be refused pilots to enable her to leave the port without hindrance or delay.

　　　Immediately after the reception of the consular note the Superintendent of Customs shall give a permit to open hatches. If the captain before taving received the said permit shall have opened hatches and commenced to discharge, he may be fined 500 dollars, and the goods discharged may be seized, the whole to the profit of the Chinese Government.

　　　Art. XVIII.-French captains and merchants may hire whatever boats and lighters they please for the transport of goods and passengers, and the sum to be paid for such boats shall be settled between the parties themselves, without the intervention of the Chinese authority and, consequently, without its guarantee in case of accident, fraud, or disappearance of the said boats. The number of these boats shall not be limited, nor shall a monopoly in respect either of the boats or of the carriage of merchandise by porters be granted to any one.

Art. XIX.-Whenever a French merchant shall have merchandise to load or discharge he shall first remit a detailed note of it to the Consul or Consular Agent, who will immediately charge a recognised interpreter of the Cunsulate to communicate it to the Superintendent of Customs. The latter shall at once deliver a permit for shipping or landing the goods. He will then proceed to the verification of the goods in such manner that there shall be no chance of loss to any party.

The French merchant must cause himself to be represented (if he does not prefer to attend himself) at the place of the verification by a person possessing the requisite knowledge to protect bis interests at the time when the verification for the liquida- tion of the dues is made, otherwise any after claim will be null and of no effect.

　　　With respect to goods subject to an ad valorem duty, if the merchant cannot agree with the Chinese officers as to their value, then each party shall call in two or three merchants to examine the goods, and the highest price which shall be offered by any of them shall be assumed as the value of the said goods.

Duties shall be charged on the net weight, the tare will therefore be deducted. If the French merchant cannot agree with the Chinese officer on the amount of tare, each party shall choose a certain number of chests and bales from among the goods respecting which there is a dispute; these shall be first weighed gross, then tared, and the average tare of these shall be taken as the tare for all the others.

If during the course of verification any difficulty arises which cannot be settled the French merchant may claim the intervention of the Consul, who will immediately bring the subject of dispute to the notice of the Superintendent of Customs, and both will endeavour to arrive at an amicable arrangement, but the claim must be made within twenty-four hours; otherwise it will not receive attention. So long as the result of the dispute remains pending the Superintendent of Customs shall not enter the matter in his books, thus leaving every latitude for the examination and solution of the difficulty.

On goods imported which have sustained damage a reduction of duties propor- tionate to their depreciation shall be made. This shall be equitably determined, and, if necessary, in the manner above stipulated for the fixing of ad valorem duties.

Art. XX.-Any vessel having entered one of the ports of China aud which has not yet used the permit to open batches mentioned in Article XIX., may, within two days of a rival, quit this port and proceed to another without having to pay either tonnage dues or customs duties, but will discharge them ultimately in the port where sale of the goods is effected.

　　　Ar, XXI.-It is established, by common consent, that import duties shall be discharge by the Captains or French merchants after the landing and verification of the goods. Export duties shall in the same manner be paid on the shipment of the goods. When all tonnage dues and Customs duties shall have been paid in full by a French vess 1 the Superintendent of Cus oms shall give a general quittance, on the exhibition f which the Consul shall return the ship's papers to the Captain, and permit him to depart on his voyage. The Superintendent of Customs shall name one or several banks, who shall be authorised to receive the sum due by French merchants on account of the Government, and the receipt of these banks for all payments which have been made to them shall be considered as receipts of the

Chinese Government. These payments may be made in ingots or in foreign money the relative value of which to sycee shall be determined by agreement between the Consul or Consular agent and the Superintendent of the Customs in the different ports, according to time, place, and circumstances.

Art. XXII.-*After the expiration of the two days named in Art. XX, and before proceeding to discharge her cargo, every vessel shall pay tounage-dues accord- ing to the following scale:-Vessels of one hundred and fifty tons and upwards at the rate of four mace per ton; vessels of less than one hundred and fifty tons mea- surement at the rate of one mace per ton.

Any vessel clearing from any of the open ports of China for any other of the open ports, or trading between China and such ports in Cochin-China as belong to France, or any port in Japan, shall be entitled, on application of the master, to a special certificate from the Superintendent of Customs, on exhibition of which the said vessel shall be exempted from all further payment of tonnage-dues in any open port of China for a period of four months, to be reckoned from the date of her port-clearance; but after the expiration of four months she shall be required to pay tontage-dues again.

Small French vessels and boats of every class, whether with or without sails, shall be reckoned as coming within the category of vessels of one hundred and fifty tons and under, and shall pay tonnage-dues at the rate of one mace per ton once in every four months.

Native craft chartered by French merchants shall in like manner pay tonnage. dues once in every four months.

Art. XXIII.-All French goods, after having discharged the Customs duties according to the tariff in one of the ports of China, may be transported into the interior without being subjected to any further charge except the transit dues according to the amended scale now in force, which dues shall not be augmented in the future.

If the Chinese Customs Agents, contrary to the tenour of the present Treaty, make illegal exactions, or levy higher dues, they shall be punished according to the laws of the empire.

Art. XXIV.-Any French vessel entered at one of the ports open to foreign trade and wishing to discharge only a part of its goods there, shall pay Customs dues only for the part dis harged; it may transport the remainder of its cargo to another port and sell it there. The duty shall then be paid.

French subjects, having paid in one port the duties on their goods, wishing to re-export them and send them for sale to another port, shall notify the Consul or Consular Agent. The latter shall inform the Superintendent of Customs, who, after having verified the identity of the goods and the perfect integrity of the packages, shall send to the claimants a declaration attesting that the duties on the said goods have been paid. Provided with this declaration the French merchants on their arrival at the other port shall only have to present it through the medium of the Consul or Superintendent of Customs, who will deliver for this part of the cargo, without deduction or charges, a permit for discharge free of duty; but if the authorities discover fraud or anything contraband amongst the goods so re-exported, these shall be, after verification, confiscated to the profit of the Chinese government.

Art. XXV.-Tianshipment of goods shall take place only by special permission and in case of urgency; if it be indispensable to effect this operation the Consul shall be referred to, who will deliver a certificate, on view of which the transhipment shall be authorised by the Superintendent of Customs. The latter may always delegate an employé of his administration to be present.

Every unauthorised transhipment, except in case of peril by delay, will entail the confiscation, to the profit of the Chinese government, of the whole of the goods illicitly transhipped.

Art. XXVI.-In each of the ports open to foreign trade the Superintendent of Customs shall receive for himself, and shall deposit at the French Consulate, legal

scales for goods and silver, the weights and measures agreeing exactly with the weights and measures in use at the Canton Custom-house, and bearing a stamp and seal certifying this authority. These scales shall be the base of all liquidations of duties and of all payments to be made to the Chinese Government. They shall be referred to in case of dispute as to the weights and measures of goods, and the decree shall be according to the results they show.

Art. XXVII.-Import and export duties levied in China on French commerce shall be regulated according to the tariff annexed to the present treaty under the seal and signature of the respective plenipotentiaries. This tariff may be revis‹ d every seven years in order to be in harmony with the charges brought about by time in the value of the products of the soil or industry of the two empires.

By the payment of these duties, the amount of which it is expressly provided shall not be increased nor augmented by any kind of charge or surtax whatever, French subjects shall be free to import into China, from French or foreign ports, and equally to export from China to any destination, all goods which shall not be, at the date of the signing of the present treaty and according to the classification of the annexed tariff, the object of a special prohibition or of a special monopoly. The Chinese Government renouncing therefore the right of augmenting the number of articles reputed contraband or subjects of a monopoly, any modification of the tariff shall be made only after an understanding has been come to with the French government and with its full and entire consent.

With regard to the tariff, as well as every stipulation introduced or to be in- troduced in the existing treaties, or those which may hereafter be concluded, it remains well and duly established that merchants and in general all French citizens in China shall always have the same rights and be treated in the same way as the most forwarded nation.

Art. XXVIII.-The publication of the regular tariff doing away henceforth with all pretext for smuggling, it is not to be presumed that any act of this nature may be committed by French vessels in the ports of China. If it should be otherwise, all contraband goods introduced into these ports by French vessels or merchants, whatever their value or nature, as also all prohibited goods fraudulently discharged, shall be seized by the local authority and confiscated to the profit of the Chinese Government. Further, the latter may, if it see fit, interdict the re-entry to China of the vessel taken in contravention and compel it to leave immediately after the settle- ment of its accounts.

If any foreign vessel fraudulently make use of the French flag the French Government shall take the necessary measures for the repression of this abuse.

　　　　Art. XXIX.-His Majesty the Emperor of the French may station a vessel of war in the principal ports of the empire where its presence may be considered necessary to maintain good order and discipline amongst the crews of merchaut vessels and to facilitate the exercise of the Consular authority; all necessary measures shall be taken to provide that the presence of these vessels of war shall entail no inconvenience, and their commanders shall receive orders to cause to be executed the provisions of Article XXXIII. in respect of the communications with the land and the pol.cing of the crews. The vessels of war shall be subject to no duty.

Art. XXX.-Every French vessel of war cruising for the protection of commerce shall be receivel as a friend and treated as such in all the ports of China which it shall enter. These vessels may there procure the divers articles of refitting and victualling of which they shall have need and if they have suffered damage, may repair there and purchase the materials necessary for tuis, the whole without the least opposition.

The same shall apply to French trading ships which in consequence of great damage or any other reason may be compelled to seek refuge in any port whatsoever of China.

　　　If a vessel be wreckel on the coast of China the nearest Chinese authority, on being informed of the occurrence, shall immediately send assistance to the crew, provide for their present necessities, and take the measures imm›diately necessary

for the salvage of the ship and the preservation of the cargo. The whole shall then be brought to the knowledge of the nearest Consul or Consular Agent, in order that the latter, in concert with the competent authority, may provide means for the relief of the crew and the salvage the debris of the ship and cargo.

Art. XXXI.-Should China be at war with another power, this circumstance shall not in any way interfere with the free trade of France with China or with the opposing nation. French vessels may always, except in the case of effective blockade, sail without obstacle from the ports of the one to the ports of the other, trade in the ordinary manner, and import and export every kind of merchandise not prohibited.

Art. XXXII.-Should sailors or other persons desert from French ships-of-war, or leave French trading vessels, the Chinese authority, on the requisition of the Consul, or failing the Consul that of the Captain, shall at once use every means to discover and restore the aforesaid fugitives into the hands of one or the other of them. In the same manner, if Chinese deserters or persons accused of any crime take refuge in French houses or on board of French vessels, the local authority shall address the Consul, who, on proof of the guilt of the accused, shall immediately take the measures necessary for their extradition. Each party shall carefully avoid concealment and connivance.

Art. XXXIII.-When sailors come on shore they shall be under special disci. plinary regulations framed by the Consul and communicated to the local authority, in order to prevent as far as possible all occasion of quarrel between French sailors and the people of the country.

Art. XXXIV.-In case of French trading vessels being attacked or pillaged by pirates within Chinese waters, the civil and military authorities of the nearest place, upon learning of the occurence shall actively pursue the authors of the crime and shall neglect nothing to secure their arrest and punishment according to law. The pirated goods, in whatever place or state they may be found, shall be placed in the hands of the Consul, who shall restore them to the owners. If the criminals cannot be seized, or the whole of the stolen property cannot be recovered, the Chinese officials shall suffer the penalty inflicted by the law in such circumstances, but they shall not be held pecuniarily responsible.

Art. XXXV.-When a French subject shall have a complaint to make or claim to bring against a Chinese, he shall first state his case to the Consul, who, after having exmined the affair, will endeavour to arrange it amicably. In the same manner when a Chinese has to complain of a Freuch subject, the Consul sball attentively hear his claim and endeavour to bring about an amicable arrangement. But if in either case this be impossible, the Consul shall require the assistance of a competent Chinese official, and these two, after having conjointly examined the affair, shall decide it equitably.

Art. XXXVI.-If hereafter French citizens suffer damage, or are the objects of any insult or vexation on the part of Chinese subjects, the latter shall be pursued by the local authority, who shall take the necessary measures for the defence and protection of French subjects; if ill-doers or any vagrant part of the population com- mence to pillage, destroy, or burn the houses or warehouses of French subjects or any other of their establishments, the same authority, either on the requisition of the Consul or of his own motion shall send as speedily as possible an armed force to disperse the riot and to arrest the criminals, and shall deliver the latter up to the severity of the law; the whole without prejudice to the claims of the French subjects to be indemnified for proved losses.

CONVENTION BETWEEN RUSSIA AND CHINA.

Art. II. Following the range of hills along the Amoor's course, the long established Chinese frontier posts, and the marks put down in the 6th year of Yung-ching's reign (1728) at Sha-peen Ta-pa-ha, (in the vicinity of Tarbagatai), it is agreed that, wacre these marks terminate, the Western boundaries, not yet laid down, shall commence; they shall extend westward to the Lake Tse-sang-cho-urb, from which, after running in a south-westerly direction along the Tib-mih-urb Too-choo-rh of the Tee-shan-range, they shall go southwards to Khokand.

Art. III.-Should there hereafter occur disputes or misunderstandings in respect of frontier boundaries, it is agreed that they shall be deterinined by the two articles that precede. With reference to the placing of boundary marks in the tracts of country lying on the East, between Lake Hin-Ka and the Toumen, and, on the West, between Sha-peen Ta-pa-ya and Khokand, it is agreed that trustworthy officers shall be appointed by the two governments for that purpose. For the placing of the marks along the eastern frontiers the officers appointed shall meet at the mouth of the Usuri in May, 1861; and for similar duty on the Western frontiers, officers shall meet at Tarlagatai,-but the time of meeting it is unnecessary to fix. The officers appointed for the above work shall act with all fairness and justice; and, as in accordance with the bounaries indicated in the First and Second art.cles of this convention, they shall wake four charts, two of which shall be Russian and two either Manchurian or Chinese, and the said charts having been duly signed and sealed by the officers in question, shall be deposited, two (one in Russian and one in Manchurian or Chinese) in Russia, and two (one in Russian and one in Manchurian or Chinese) in China. On the inter- change of these charts, they shall be appended hereto as forming part of this article.

Art. IV. At all places along the frontier agreed upon in the First article of this convention, Russian and Chinese subjects may hold intercourse at pleasure. There shall not in any case, be duties levied; and all frontier officers shall afford protection to merchants quietly carrying on trade.

In order to greater precision, the substance of the second article of Gac-hwan (Ay-Kom), is hereby again enunciated.

Art. V.-Russian merchants, in addition to trading at Kiachta, may, when passing in the old established manner from Kiachta to Peking, dispose of sundries at Koo-lun and Chang-kia-how. A [Russian] Consul with a limited retinue may be stationed at Koo-lun, he sball Lin self supervise the building of a consulate, but the site, the number of buildings, and the land for pasturage of cattle, shall all be de- termined by the high officers stationed at Koo-lun.

Chinese merchants, desirous of so doing, are at liberty to repair to Russia, and there carry on trade.

Russian merchants visiting the Chinese marts shall be under no restrictions, whether as to the time at which they may visit such places or the duration of their stay; but the number of merchants at any one place shall not exc ed two hundred. The Russian officers stationed on the frontiers shall supply each party of merchants with a passport, in which shall be specified the name of the chief merchant, the number of people that accompany him, and the place about to be visited by them for trade. The merchants shall themselves provide funds for the expenditure at endant on their business and for the purchase of food and cattle.

Art. VI. In the establishment of trade, the same regulations, shall be applied at Kashgar as at Ili and Tarbagatai. At Kashgar, China agrees to make a grant of land whereon to build residences, warehouses, and churches, in order to suit the convenience of such Russian merchants as may live there; ground shall likewise be granted for burial purposes, and, as at Ili and Tarbagatai, a tract of pasture land for cattle. The high officer stationed at Kashgar ehall be officially directed to d termine the amount of grounds to be granted for the purpose, and to make the other requisite arrangements Should people from the outside enter the Russian concession at Kasar, and plunder the property of Russian merchants trading there, China will not tammy action in the matter.

Art. VII.-The merchants of both countries may trade as they please at the variol marts, and shall not be subjected to any obstructions on the part of the officials; the b

　may at pleasure frequent the shops and markets for trade and barter, and they may there make ready money payments, or if they trust each other, open credit accounts; and as to the time that the merchants of the one may sojourn in the other country, the only limit shall be the merchants' own pleasure and convenience.

　　　Art. VIII.-Russian merchants in China, and Chinese merchants in Russia, sball receive due protection from the government of the country.

　　　In order to the due control of merchants, and to provide against misunderstandings and disputes, Russian Consuls, &c., may be stationed at the various trading marts; and, in addition to those at Ili and Tarbagatai, Consuls shall be appointed for Kashgar and Koo-lun. China is at liberty to station Consuls at St. Petersburg, or at such other places in Russia as she may see fit. Such Cons ils, whether Russian or Chinese, shall reside in houses to be built by their government; but they may likewise, without obstruction, rent houses belonging to the people of the places at which they may chance to be stationed.

　　　The Consuls and the local officials shall correspond and hold intercourse on terms of equality, provided for by the second article of the Tientsin Treaty. In matters in which the merchants of both countries are concerned, the officers of the two governments shall take conjoint action; criminals shall be punished in accordance with the laws of their country, as directed by the seventh article of the Tientsin Treaty.

　　　In all cases of disputes originating in the non-payment of money due in mercantile transactions, the parties concerned shall themselves call in arbitrators, the Russian Consuls and the Chinese local officials shall merely take such action as may tend to bring about an amicable settlement, and shall not in any way be called upon or held responsible for the payment of bad debts.

At the trading marts the merchants may register, at the offices of the Consuls and local authorities, agreements in reference to property and houses. In such cases, should either of the principals refuse to carry out the terms of the registered agreement, the Consuls and officials shall enforce their fulfilment.

In cases other than those arising from mercantile transactions, as quarr ls and such like small matters, the Consuls and local officers shall act conjointly in the examina- tion, and shall punish the guilty parties respect vely, as under their several juris lic ions.

Russians secreting themselves in Chinese houses, or absconding to the interior of China, shall, on the requisition of the Consul, be sought for and sent back by the Chinese authorities; and Rus-ian officials shall act reciprocally in the event of Chinese hiding in Russian houses, or escaping to Russian territory.

　　　　In such serious cases as murder, robbery, wounding, conspiracy to kill, incen- diarism, &c., &c., the guilty party, if Russian, shall be delivered for punishment to the Russian authorities; if Chinese, he may be punished as the laws direct, by the Chinese authorities, either at the place where the crime was committ d, or at such other place as the Chinese officials may deem proper. In all cases, great or little, the Consuls and local offic als shall each deal with their own countrymen; they shall not in an irregular manner arrest, detain, or punish [people not subject to their jurisdiction].

　　　　Art. IX. As compared with former years trade is now much increased, and more- over, new bout dari s have been laid down. Thus, the condition of affairs differs much from what it was at the times of making the Treaties of Nipchu* and Kiachta, and the supplementary sti ulations of succeeding years; and circumstances that gave rise to disputes between the various frontier officers no longer remain the same. Such changes, in existing regulations, as are necessitated [by the altered state of affairs] are hereby included in newly drawn up stipulations.

　　　　Her tofore official communications treating of frontier business have only passed between the High Official at Koo-lun and the Koo-pih-urh-na-to-urh (? the Governor) of Kiachta, and between the Governor-General of Western Siberia and the Tartar General stationed at Ili. For the future, in addition to the officers just named, frontier business may be transacted by the Koo-pih-urh-na-to-urb of the Amoor and Tung-hae-pern (Eastern Sea-shore) provinces in communication with the Tartar General, stationed in Hih-lung-keang and Kee-liu.

　　　　Whereas, since the conclusion of the treaty between the United States of America and the Ta-Tsing Empire (China) of the 18th of June, 1858, circumstances have arisen showing the necessity of additional articles thereto: the President of the United States and the August Sovereign of the Ta-Tsing Empire have named for their Plenipotentiaries; to wit, the President of the United States of America, William H. Seward, Secretary of State; and His Majesty the Emperor of China, Anson Burlingame, accredited as his Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary, and Chih-kang, and Sun-chia-ku, of the second Chinese rank, associated high Envoys and Ministers of his said Majesty; and the said Plenipotentiaries, after having exchanged their full powers, found to be in due and proper form, have agreed upon the following articles

Art. I. His Majesty the Emperor of China, being of the opinion that in making concessions to the citizens or subjects of foreign powers, of the privilege of residing on certain tracts of land, or resorting to certain waters of that Empire, for purposes of trade, he has by no means relinquished his right of eminent domain or dominion over the said lands and waters, hereby agrees that no such concession or grant shall be construed to give to any power or party, which may be at war with or hostile to the United States, the right to attack the citizens of the United States, or their property, within the said lands or waters: And the United States, for themselves, hereby agree to abstain from offensively attacking the citizens or subjects of any power or party, or their property, with which they may be at war, on any such tract of land or waters of the said Empire. But nothing in this article shall be construed to prevent the United States from resisting an attack by any hostile power or party upon their citizens or their property.

　　　It is further agreed that if any right or interest in any tract of land in China has been, or shall bereafter be, granted by the Government of China to the United States or their citizens for purposes of trade or commerce, that grant shall in no event be construed to divest the Chinese Authorities of their right of jurisdiction over persons and property within said tract of land except so far as the right may have been expressly relinquished by treaty.

Art. II.-The United States of America and His Majesty the Emperor of China, believing that the safety and prosperity of commerce will thereby best be promoted, agree that any privilege or inmunity in respect to trade or navigation within the Chinese dominions which may not have been stipulated for by treaty, shall be subject to the discretion of the Chinese Government, and may be regulated by it accordingly, but not in a manner or spirit incompatible with the Treaty stipulations of the parties,

all disability or persecution on account of their religious faith or worship in either country. Cemeteries for sepulture of the dead, of whatever nativity or nationality, shall be held in respect and free from disturbance or profanatiou.

Art. V. The United States of America and the Emperor of China cordially recognize the inherent and inalienable right of man to change his home and allegiance, and also the mutual advantage of the free migration and emigration of their citizens and subjects respectively from the one country to the other for the purpose of curiosity, of trade, or as premanent residents. The high Contracting Parties, therefore, join in reprobating any other than an entirely voluntary emigration for these purposes. They consequently agree to pass laws, making it a penal offence for a citizen of the United States, or a Chinese subject, to take Chinese subjects either to the United States or to any other foreign country; or for a Chinese subject or citizen of the United States to take citizens of the United States to China, or to any other foreign country, without their free and voluntary consent respectively.

Art. VI.-Citizens of the United States visiting or residing in China, shall enjoy the same privileges, immunities, or exemptions in respect to travel or residence as may there be enjoyed by the citizens or subjects of the most favoured nation. And, reciprocally, Chinese subjects visiting or residing in the United States, shall enjoy the same privileges, immunities, and exemptions in respect to travel or residence as may there be enjoyed by the citizens or subjects of the most favoured nation. But nothing herein contained shall be held to confer naturalization upon citizens of the United States in China, nor upon the subjects of China in the United States.

Art. VII.-Citizens of the United States shall enjoy all the privileges of the public educational institutions under the control of the Government of China; and reciprocally Chinese subjects shall enjoy all the privileges of the public educational institutions under the control of the Government of the United States, which are enjoyed in the respective countries by the citizens or subjects of the most favoured nation. The citizens of the United States may freely establish and maintain schools within the Empire of China at those places where foreigners are by treaty permitted to reside; and reciprocally, the Chinese subjects may enjoy the same privileges and immunities in the United States.

Art. VIII.-The United States, always disclaiming and discouraging all practices of unnecessary dictation and intervention by one nation in the affairs or domestic administration of another, do hereby freely disclaim and disavow any intention or right to intervene in the domestic administration of China in regard to the construc- tion of railroads, telegraphs, or other material internal improvements. On the other hand, His Majesty the Emperor of China reserves to himself the right to decide the time and manner and circumstances of introducing such improvements within his dominions. With this mutual understanding it is agreed by the contracting parties that, if at any time hereafter his Imperial Majesty shall determine to construct, or cause to be constructed, works of the character mentioned within the Empire, and shall make application to the United States, or any other Western Power for facilities to carry out that policy, the United States will in that case designate or authorize suitable engineers to be employed by the Chinese Government, and will recommend to other nations an equal compliance with such applications; the Chinese Government in that case protecting such engineers in their persons and property, and paying them a reasonable compensation for their services.

In faith whereof, the respective Plenipotentiaries have signed this treaty and thereto affixed the seals of their arms.

Done at Washington, the 28th day of July, in the year of Our Lord one thousand eight hundred and sixty-eight.

The Contracting Parties likewise pledge themselves to punish severely, according to their laws, their respective citizens and subjects who may violate the present stipulations, and also to proceed judicially against their respective ships that may be employed in such unlawful operations, imposing the fines which for such cases are established by their laws.

In any case on the arrival of a ship at her destination, when passengers are found having no document, the Spanish Authorities can, in accord with the Consuls of China, adopt such measures as they see fit for the occasion.

In order that the visit of the delegates above-mentioned can take place and have an effective result, the captain or shipowner will be bound to declare in advance the hour of the departure of the ship.

If the captain of a ship which carries emigrants does not submit to this condi- tion, and if be declares his intention of leaving previously to the visit of the delegates, the Consul of Spain, after an official communication having been made to him to this effect, must refuse to him the delivery of the ship's papers and the ship will be detained and treated according to the laws of her country, until all the formalities prescribed by the present convention have been duly complied with.

　　　Art. VII.-Chinese subjects can leave the island of Cuba whenever they wish provided that they are not under judicial pursuance.

　　　　Moreover, in order to facilitate the free circulation and settlement of the Chinese subjects in Cuba and in order that they may enjoy the rights which are given to them by Art. III. of the present convention, the Spanish Government, together with the Chinese Representative in Madrid, or the Authorities in Havana, together with the Consul General of China, will establish regulations, which, without deviating from the existing laws of the public good order and peace or from those which might be established in future, will grant to the Chinese subjects treatment equal to foreigners of the same category and subjects of the most favoured power.

　Art. IX. The Consul-General of China in Havana and the competent authorities on the island of Cuba will establish as speedily as possible and in common accord, the regulations which the Chinese emigrants actually residing in Cuba, and those who may hereafter arrive, ought to observe in order to obtain a certificate stating their entry in the Register kept by the Chinese Consuls. The Chinese Consuls will deliver to them a certificate of registration which will be vised by the Superintendent of Police, or any other competent authority in the district, town, or plantation of the prefecture where the emigrant will establish his residence.

　The authorities of Cuba will communicate to the Chinese Consuls all the in- formation concerning the number and names of the Chinese subjects in the different localities of the island and will enable them to obtain the means to personally ascertain the state of the Chinese engaged as labourers on the plantations.

　Art. X.-Ships of whatever nation wishing to carry Chinese emigrants must, besides conforming themselves to the stipulations of the present convention, also submit themselves to the regulations of their country regarding the carrying of passengers, of provisions, and health.

　If they do not obey these two conditions they shall then not be allowed to carry emigrants.

　Art. XI.-The Government of H.M. the King of Spain desiring to give to the Government of H.M. the Emperor of China a proof of friendship and good will, engages itself to send home at its own expense as soon as the present convention shall be ratified, those Chinese who actually can be found on the island of Cuba, who formerly made in China literary studies their vocation, also those who had an official rank, and individuals who belong to families of these categories.

　Art. XII.-The Spanish Government will order the masters of those Chinese emigrants whose contracts have expired and who according to the terms of these contracts have the right of returning home, to fulfil the obligations which they have contracted with these emigrants.

　Concerning those who have fulfilled their engagements but who have no right to be sent home at the expense of their masters, and who are without means to maintain themselves, the local authorities will together with the Chinese Consuls in Cuba adopt the measures which they think necessary for repatriating them.

The emigrants at present residing on the island of Cuba and whose contracts are expiring, will receive as soon as the present convention comes into force, a certificate in which it will be stated that they have fulfilled their engagements; by this they will obtain the right of enjoying all the advantages secured to other Chi- nese according to regulations mentioned in Art. VII. of the present convention and will be free either to remain on or to leave the island of Cuba.

　Art. XIII.-The authorities of the island of Cuba, can, if the circumstances demand it and regardless of the regulations already mentioned, oppose themselves to the movements and the residence of Chinese subjects in all the localities where they think convenient, if for special reasons they find that the accumulation of the individuals in the respective localities might be detrimental to the preservation of public order. In such cases the local authorities will observe towards Chinese subjects the same rules as towards other foreigners and will communicate to the Consul of China the decision they have taken.

　Art. XIV.-The labourers who have still obligations to perform according to the terms of their contracts, must under any condition fulfil the obligations, but they will enjoy regarding certificates etc., the benefits which will be accorded to their countrymen recently landed or to those whose engagements have expired.

13TH SEPTEMBER, 1871.

Ratified by the Emperor of China, September, 1871.

Ratified by the Mikado of Japan, with modifications,* 1st November, 1871.

The Empire of China and the Empire of Japan having been on terms of friend- ship for a long period of years, now desire by common action to cement their ancient relations, and to make the intercourse subsisting between the two countries more close.

To this end Li, by Imperial appointment, Minister Plenipotentiary of the Empire of China for the management of commercial affairs, Senior Guardian of the Heir Apparent, Assistant Grand Secretary, President of the Board of War, Governor- General of the Province of Chih-li, and invested with the first degree of the third order of nobility; and Ita, Minister Plenipotentiary of the Empire of Japan, &c., &c.; each acting in obedience to the Decrees of their respective Sovereigns, have conferred together, and have agreed to articles for the reconstruction of relations; to the end that they may be observed with good faith on both sides in perpetuity.

The Articles agreed upon are as follows:-

　　Art. I.t-Relations of amity shall henceforth be maintained in redoubled force between China and Japan, in measure as boundless as the heaven and the earth. In all that regards the territorial possessions of either country the two Governments shall treat each the other with proper courtesy, without the slightest infringement or encroachment on either side, to the end that there may be for evermore peace between them undisturbed.

　　Art. II.-Friendly intercourse thus existing between the two Governments, it is the duty of each to sympathize with the other, and in the event of any other nation acting unjustly or treating either of the two Powers with contempt, on notice being given [by the one to the other], mutual assistance shall be rendered, or mediation offered for the arrangement of the difficulty, in fulfilment of the duty imposed by relations of friendship.

permanently or from time to time. Their travelling expenses, as they pass through he country, will be defrayed by themselves. In the matter of their biring ground or buildings to serve as legations, of the passage of their baggage to and fro, of the conveyance of their correspondence by special couriers, and the like, due assistance shall be rendered on either side.

Art. V.-Although the functionaries of the two Governments have fixed grades, the nature of the offices conferred are different on either side. Officers of equivalent rank will meet and correspond with each other on a footing of equality. When an officer visits a superior, the intercourse between them will be such as is prescribed by the rites of hospitality. For the transaction of public business, the officials of the two countries will address communications to officers of their own rank, who will report in turn to their superiors. They will not address the superior officer directly. In visits, cards with the official title of the visitor shall be sent on either side. All officials sent on the part of either Governmeut to the other shall present for inspec tion a letter bearing an official stamp, in order to guard against false personation.

　　　　Art. VI.-In official correspondence, China wili use the Chinese language, and Japan will either use the Japanese language accompanied by a Chinese version, or a Chinese version alone, as may be found on her side preferable.

　　　　Art. VII.-Friendly intercourse having been established between the two Governments, it will behove them both to appoint certain ports on the seaboard which their merchants will be authorized to frequent for purposes of trade, and to lay down, separately, regulations of trade, that their respective mercantile communities may abide by in perpetuity.

　　　　Art. VIII. At the ports appointed in the territory of either Government, it will be competent for the other to station Consuls for the control of its own merchant community. All suits in which they (the Consul's nationals) are the only parties, the matter in dispute being money or property, it will fall to the Consul to adjudicate according to the law of his own state. In mixed suits, the plaint having been laid before the Consul, he will endeavour, in the first instance, to prevent litigation by friendly counsel. If this be not possible, he will write officially to the local authority, and in concert with him will fairly try the case and decide it. Where acts of theft or robbery are committed, and where debtors abscond, the local authorities can do no more than make search for and apprehend the guilty parties. They shall not be held liable to make compensation.

Art. IX.-At any of the ports appointed, at which no Consul shall have been stationed, the control and care of the traders resorting thither shall devolve on the local authorities. In case of the commissi n of any act of crime, the guilty party shall be apprehended, and the particulars of his offence communicated to the Consul at the nearest port, by whom he shall be tried and punished according to law.

Art. X-At the ports named in either country, the officials and people of the other shall be at liberty to engage natives for service, or as artisans, or to attend to commercial business. The persons so engaged shall be kept in order by the person so engaging them, who shall not allow them to perpetrate acts of fraud under any pretext. Still less shall be give rise to cause of complaint by giving ear to statements advanced from illicit motives. In the case of any offence being committed by any person employed in the manner above mentioned, the local authority shall be at liberty to apprehend and punish the delinquent. The employer shall not favour or protect him.

-

Art. XI. Whereas it is the duty of the subjects of either Power residing at the ports declared open in either country to live on friendly terms with the native inha- bitants, it is provided that they shall not be allowed to wear arms. Infraction of this rule will be punishable by a fine, accompanied by the confiscation of the arms. Residents as aforesaid shall attend peaceably to their own avocations, and whether residing permanently or for the time being at a port, they shall submit to the autho- rity of their Consul. They shall not be allowed to adopt the costume of the country

in which they may reside, nor to obtain local 1egistration and compete at the literary examinations, lest disorder and confusion be produced.

　Art. XII.-If any subject of either Power, having violated the law of his own country, secrete himself in any official building, merchant vessel, or warehouse of the other state, or escape to any place in the territory of the other, on official application being made by the authority of the state of which such offender is a subject to the authority of the other, the latter shall immediately take steps for the arrest of the offender, without show of favour. Whilst in custody, he shall be provided with food and clothing, and shall not be subjected to ill-usage.

　Art. XIII.-If any subject of either Power connect himself at any of the open ports with lawless offenders for purposes of robbery or other wrong doing, or if any work his way into the interior and commit acts of incendiarism, murder, or robbery, active measures for his apprehension shall be taken by the proper authority, and notice shall at the same time be given without delay to the Consul of the offender's nationality. Any offender who shall venture, with weapons of a murderous nature, to resist capture, may be slain in the act without farther consequences; but the circumstances which bave led to his life being thus taken shall be investigated at an inquest which will be held by the Consul and the local authority together. In the event of the occurrence taking place in the interior, so far from the part that the Consul cannot arrive in time for the inquest, the local authority shall communicate a report of the facts of the case to the Consul.

　When arrested and brought up for trial, the offender, if at a port, shall be tried by the local authority and the Consul together. In the interior he shall be tried and dealt with by the local authority who will officially communicate the facts of the case to the Consul.

　If subjects of either Power shall assemble to the number of ten or more to foment disorder and commit excesses in the dominions of the other, or shall induce subjects of the other therein to conspire with them for the doing of injury to the other Power, the authorities of the latter shall be free at once to arrest them. If at a port, their Consul shall be informed, in order that he may take part in their trial. If in the interior, the local authority shall duly try them, and shall officially com- municate particulars to the Consul. In either case capital punishment shall be inflicted at the scene of the commission of the offence.

　Art. XIV.-Vessels of war of either Power shall be at liberty to frequent the ports of the other for the protection of the subjects of their own country, but they sball in no case enter ports not declared open by treaty, nor rivers, lakes, and streams in the interior. Any vessels infringing this rule shall be placed under embargo and fined. This stipulation shall not, however, apply to vessels driven into port by stress of weather.

　Art. XV.--If either State of the two should be involved in war with any other Power, measures for the defence of the coast being thereby entailed, on notice being given, trade shall be suspended for the time being, together with the entry and departure of ships, lest injury befall them. Japanese subjects ordinarily established in the appointed ports of China, or being in the seas adjoining China, and Chinese subjects ordinarily established at the open ports of Japan, or being in the seas adjoining thereunto, shall not be permitted to engage in collisions with subjects of a hostile power, or to attack and plunder them.

　Art. XVI. No Consul of either Power shall be allowed to trade, or to act as Consul for a Power not in Treaty relations with the other. In the case of any Consul so acting as to render himself generally unacceptable, on substantial proof to this effect being produced, it shall be competent for the Government interested to communicate officially with the Minister Plenipotentiary, who when he shall have ascertained the truth, shall remove the Consul, in order that the friendly relations of the two Governments may not suffer detriment through the misconduct of a single individual.

　Art. XVII. The flags carried by the vessels of either country are of a fixed design. If a vessel of either having falsely assumed the colours of the other, shall

do that which is contrary to law, the vessel and goods shall be confiscated, and if it appear that the false colours were given by an official, he shall be denounced and removed from his post.

　　The subjects of either country shall be at liberty to purchase the books of the other, if desirous of studying its literature.

Art. XVIII.-The foregoing articles are agreed to by the two contracting Powers in order to the prevention of misunderstandings, to the end that perfect confidence and improved relations may subsist between them. In testimony whereof the Ministers Plenipotentiary of the two contracting Powers do now accordingly sign and affix their seals hereto.

CONVENTION BETWEEN GREAT BRITAIN, FRANCE, THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, AND HOLLAND,

WITH JAPAN.

SIGNED, IN THE ENGLISH, FRENCH, DUTCH, AND JAPANESE LANGUAGES, AT TOKIO, 25TH JUNE, 1866.

The Representatives of Great Britain, France, the United States of America, and Holland, having received from their respective Governments identical instructions for the modification of the Tariff of Import and Export duties contained in the Trade Regulations annexed to the Treaties concluded by the aforesaid Powers with the Japanese Government in 1858, which modification is provided for by the VIIth of those Regulations:-

And the Government of Japan being desirous of affording a fresh proof of their wish to promote trade, and to cement the friendly relations which exist between their country and foreign nations:-

His Excellency Midzuno Idzumi no Kami, a member of the Gorjoiu and a Minister of Foreign Affairs, has been furnished by tae Government of Japan with the necessary powers to conclude with the Representatives of the above-named four Powers, that is to say:

Of Great Britain,

　　　　　Sir Harry S. Parkes, Knight Commander of the Most Honourable Order of the Batb, Her Britannic Majesty's Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary iu Japan;

Of France,

Monsieur Leon Roches, Commander of the Imperial Order of the Legion of Honour, Minister Pienipotentiary of His Majesty the Emperor of the French in Japan;

Of the United States of America,

A. L. C. Portman, Esquire, Chargé d'Affaires ad interim ; And of Holland,

Monsieur Dirk de Graeff van Polsbroek, Knight of the Order of the Netherlands Lion, Political Agent and Consul-General of His Majesty the King of the Netherlands;

The following Convention, comprising Twelve Articles.

　　　　　Art. I.-The contracting Parties declare in the names of their respective Governments that they accept, and they hereby do formally accept, as binding upon the subjects of their respective Sovereigns, and the citizens of their respective countries, the Tariff hereby established annexed to the present convention.

This Tariff is substituted not only for the original Tariff attached to the Treaties concluded with the above-named four Powers, but also for the special Conventions and arrangements relative to the same Tariff, which have been entered into at different dates up to this time between the Governments of Great Britain, France, and the United States on one side, and the Japanese Government on the other.

CONVENTION BETWEEN THE TREATY POWERS AND JAPAN.

Art. III.-The permit fee hitherto levied under the VIth Regulation attached to the above-named Treaties is hereby abolished. Permits for the landing or ship- ment of cargo will be required as formerly, but will hereafter be issued free of charge. Art. IV.-On and from the first day of July next, at the Port of Kanagawa (Yokohama), and on and from the first day of October next, at the Ports of Nagasaki and Hakodate, the Japanese Government will be prepared to warehouse imported goods on the application of the importer or owner, without payment of duty. The Japanese Government will be responsible for the safe custody of the goods so long as they remain in their charge, and will adopt all the precautions necessary to render them insurable against fire. When the importer or the owner wishes to remove the goods from the warehouses, he must pay the duties fixed by the Tariff, but if he should wish to re-export them, he may do so without payment of duty. Storage charges will in either case be paid on delivery of the goods. The amount of these charges, together with the regulations necessary for the management of the said warehouses, will be established by the common consent of the Contracting Parties.

-

Art. V. All articles of Japanese production may be conveyed from any place in Japan to any of the Ports open to foreign trade, free of any tax or transit duty other than the usual tolls levied equally on all traffic for the maintenance of roads or navigation.

Art. VI.-In conformity with those articles of the Treaties concluded between Japan and Foreign Powers which stipulate for the circulation of foreign coin at its corresponding weight in native coin of the same description, dollars have hitherto been received at the Japanese Custom-house in payment of duties at their weight in Boos (commonly called Ichiboos), that is to say, a rate of three hundred and eleven Boos per hundred dollars. The Japanese Government being, however, desirous to alter this practice, and to abstain from all interference in the exchange of native for foreign coin, and being also anxious to meet the wants both of native and foreign commerce by securing an adequate issue of native coin, have already determined to enlarge the Japanese Mint, so as to admit of the Japanese Government exchanging into naive con of the same intrinsic value, less only the cost of coinage, at the places named for this purpose, all foreign coin, or bullion, in gold or silver, that may at any time be tendered to them by foreigners or Japanese. It being essential, however, to the execution of this measure, that the various Powers with whom Japan has con- cluded Treaties should first consent to modify the stipulations in those Treaties which relate to the currency, the Japanese Government will at once propose to those Powers the adoption of the necessary modification in the said stipulations, and on receiving their concurrence will be prepared from the first of January, 1868, to carry the above measure into effect.

The rate to be charged as the cost of coinage shall be determined hereafter by the common consent of the Contracting Parties.

Art. VII.-In order to put a stop to certain abuses and inconveniences complained of at the open Ports, relative to the transaction of business at the Custom-house, the landing and shipping of cargoes and the hiring of boats, coolies, servants, &c., the Contracting Parties have agreed that the Governor at each open port shall at once enter into negotiations with the foreign Consuls with a view to the establishment, by mutual consent, of such regulations as shall effectually put an end to those abuses and inconveniences, and afford all possible facility and security both to the operations of trade and to the transactions of individuals.

It is hereby stipulated that in order to protect merchandize from exposure to weather, these regulations shall include the covering in at each port of one or more of the landing places used by foreigners for landing or shipping cargo.

Art. VIII-Any Japanese subject shall be free to purchase, either in the open Ports of Japan or abroad, every description of sailing or stean vessel intended to carry either passengers or cargo; but ships-of-war may only be obtained under the authorization of the Japanese Government.

All foreign vessels purchased by Japanese subjects shall be registered as Japanese vessels on payment of a fixed duty of three Boos per ton for steamers, and one Boo

per ton for sailing vessels. The tonnage of each vessel shall be proved by the foreign register of the ship, which shall be exhibited through the Consul of the party interested, on the demand of the Japanese authorities, and shall be certified by the Consul as authentic.

Art. IX. In conformity with the Treaties concluded between Japan and the aforesaid Powers, and with the special arrangements made by the Envoys of the Japanese Government in their note to the British Government of the sixth of June, 1862, and in their note to the French Government of the sixth of October of the same year, all the restrictions on trade and intercourse between foreigners and Japanese, alluded to in the said notes, have been entirely removed, and proclamations to this effect have already been published by the Government of Japan.

The latter, however, do not hesitate to declare that Japanese merchants and traders of all classes are at liberty to trade directly, and without the interference of Government officers, with foreign merchants, not only at the open ports of Japan, but also in all Foreign countries on being authorized to leave their country in the manner provided for in Article X. of the present convention, without being subject to higher taxation by the Japanese Government than that levied on the native trading classes of Japan in their ordinary transactions with each other.

And they further declare that all Daimios, or persons in the employ of Daimios, are free to visit, on the same coudition, any foreign country, as well as all the open Ports of Japan, and to trade there with foreigners as they please, without the interference of any Japanese officer, provided always, they submit to the existing Police regulations and to the payment of the established duties.

　　　Art. X.-All Japanese subjects may ship goods to or from any open Port in Japan, or to and from the Ports of any Foreign Power, either in vessels owned by Japanese, or in the vessels of any nation having a Treaty with Japan. Furthermore, on being provided with Passports through the proper Department of the Government in the manner specified in the Proclamation of the Japanese Government, dated the twenty-third day of May, 1866, all Japanese subjects may travel to any foreign country for purposes of study or trade. They may also accept employment in any capacity on board the vessels of any nation having a Treaty with Japan.

Japanese in the employ of foreigners may obtain Government passports to go abroad on application to the Governor of any open Port.

Art. XI-The Government of Japan will provide all the Ports open to Foreign trade with such lights, buoys, or beacons, as may be necessary to render secure the navigation of the approaches to the said Ports.

Art. XII.-The undersigned being of opinion that it is unnecessary that this Convention should be submitted to their respective Governments for ratification, before it comes into operation, it will take effect on and from the first day of July, one thousand eight hundred and sixty-six.

Each of the Contracting Parties having obtained the approval of his Government to this Convention shall make known the same to the others, and the communication in writing of this approval shall take the place of a formal exchange of ratifications. In witness whereof the above-named Plenipotentiaries have signed the present Convention, and have affixed thereto their seals.

　　　Done at Yedo, in the English, French, Dutch, and Japanese languages, this twenty-fifth day of June, one thousand eight hundred and sixty-six.

SUPPLEMENTARY TREATY BETWEEN FRANCE AND JAPAN.

SIGNED AT PARIS ON THE 20TH JUNE, 1864.

　　　His Majesty the Emperor of the French and His Majesty the Emperor of Japan, desiring to consolidate by marks of mutual confidence the relations of friendship and of commerce which exist between the two countries, bave resolved to settle by common accord and by special arrangement the difficulties which have arisen between their Governments since the year 1862.

　　　In consequence, His Excellency M. Drouyn de Lhuys, Minister, Secretary of State for the Department of Foreign Affairs of His Majesty the Emperor of the French; and their Excellencies Ikuda Tdikougo no Kami, Kawatsou Idzou no Kami, Kawada Sagami no Kami, Ambassadors of His Majesty the Tycoon, duly authorised to that effect, have agreed upon the following articles:

　　　Art. I. In reparation of the act of hostility committed in the month of July, 1863, against the ship King Cheng of the Imperial navy, upon which shots were fired in the province of Nagato, the Japanese Government undertake to pay into the hands of the Minister of the Emperor of the French at Yedo, three months after the return of their Excellencies the Ambassadors of the Tycoon to Japan, an indemnity of 140,000 Mexican piastres, of which 100,000 piastres will be paid by the Government itself, and 40,000 piastres by the authorities of the province of Nagato.

Art. II. The Japanese Government also undertakes to put an end, within three months after the return to Japan of their Excellencies the Ambassadors of the Tycoon, to the hindrances which French ships that wish to pass the Straits of Simonosaki meet with at present, and to keep that passage free at all times by recurring, if necessary, to the employment of force, and by acting, if need be, in concert with the Commandant of the French naval division.

Art. III.-It is agreed between the two Governments that in order to promote the regular development of commercial exchange between France and Japan, the tariff reduction recently accorded by the Government of His Majesty the Tycoon to foreign commerce, shall be maintained in favour of the articles imported by French merchants, or under the French flag, during the entire duration of the treaty concluded at Yedo between the two countries on the 9th October, 1858. In consequence, while that treaty remains in force, the Japanese Customs shall admit free the following articles, intended for the preparation and package of tea:-tin foil, solder, matting, rattans, oils for painting, indigo, gypsum, pans, and baskets. It will simply impose a duty of five per cent. ad valorem upon wine and spirits, white sugar, iron and tin, machinery and detached pieces of machinery, linen tissues, cloths, watches, watch chains, glass, medicines, and a duty of six per cent. upon plate glass, mirrors, porcelain, jewellery, perfumery, soaps, arms, cutlety, books, papers, engravings, and drawings.

Art. IV. Tis arran ement will be considered as forming an integral part of the treaty of the 9th October, 1858, between France and Japan, aud it will be immediately put in execution, without it being necessary to submit it to the ratification of the respective sovereigns.

In witness whereof the undermentioned plenipotentiaries bave signed and sealed the present arrangement.

Done in Paris, in duplicate, the twentieth day of the month of June, of the year eighteen hundred and sixty-four.

The diplomatic agent and Consul-General of the United States shall have the right to travel freely in any part of the empire of Japan from the time they enter on the discharge of their official duties.

The Government of Japan may appoint a diplomatic agent to reside at Washington, and consuls or consular agents for any or all of the Ports of the United States. The diplomatic agent and Consul-General of Japan may travel freely in any part of the United States from the time they arrive in the country.

Art. II. The President of the United States, at the request of the Japanese Government, will act as a friendly mediator in such matters of difference as may arise between the Government of Japan and any European power.

day of January one thousand eight hundred and sixty. Hiogo on the (1st of January, 1863) first day of January one thousand eight hundred and sixty-three.

If Niigata is found to be unsuitable as a harbour, another port on the west coast of Nipon shall be selected by the two governments in lieu thereof. Six months after the opening of Kanagawa, the port of Simoda shall be closed as a place of residence and trade of American citizens. In all the foregoing ports and towns, American citizens may permanently reside; they shall have the right to lease ground and purchase the buildings thereon, and may erect dwellings and warehouses.

In case a boat despatched by a Japanese surveying vessel to take soundings along the Corean coasts, as provided for in Article VII. of the Treaty of Amity and Friendship, should be prevented from returning to the vessel, on account either of bad weather or of the ebb tide, the headman of the locality shall accommodate the boat party in a suitable house in the neighbourhood. Articles required by them for their comfort shall be furnished to them by the local authorities and the outlay thus incurred shall afterwards be refunded to the latter.

Art. X.-Although no relations as yet exist between Corea and foreign countries, yet Japan bas for many years back maintained friendly relations with them; it is therefore natural that in case a vessel of any of the countries of which Japan thus cultivates the friendship should be strauded by stress of weather or otherwise on the coasts of Corea, those on board shall be treated with kindness by Corean subjects, and should such persons ask to be sent back to their homes they shall be delivered over by the Corean Government to an Agent of the Japanese Government residing at one of the open ports of Corea, requesting him to send them back to their native countries, which request the Agent shall never fail to comply with.

Art. XI. The foregoing ten articles, together with the Regulations for Trade annexed hereto, shall be of equal effect with the Treaty of Anity and Friendship, and therefore shall be faithfully observed by the Governments of the two countries. Should it, however, be found that any of the above articles actually causes embarrass- ment to the commercial intercourse of the two nations, and that it is necessary to modify them, then either government, submitting its propositions to the other, shall negotiate the modification of such articles on giving one year's previous notice of their intention.

Signed and sealed this twenty-fourth day of the eighth month of the ninth year Meiji, and two thousand five hundred and thirty-sixth since the accession of H. M. Zimmu Tenno; and of the Corean era, the sixth day of the seventh month of the year Heishi, and of the founding of Corea the four hundred and fifth.

TREATIES WITH SIAM.

GREAT BRITAIN.

TREATY OF FRIENDSHIP AND COMMERCE BETWEEN HER MAJESTY THE QUEEN OF THE UNITED KINGDOM AND THE KINGS OF SIAM,

Ratifications exchanged at Bangkok, 5th April, 1856.

Art. I.-There shall henceforward be perpetual peace and friendship between Her Majesty and her successors, and Their Majesties the Kings of Siam, and their successors. All British subjects coming to Siam shall receive from the Siamese Government full protection and assistance to enable them to reside in Siam iu all security, and trade with every facility, free from oppression or injury on the part of the Siamese, and all Siamese subjects going to an English country shall receive from the British Government the same complete protection and assistance that shall be granted to British subjects by the Government of Siam.

Art. II. The interests of all British subjects coming to Siam shall be placed under the regulation and control of a Consul, who will be appointed to reside at Bangkok: he will himself conform to, and will enforce the observance by British subjects of all the provisions of this treaty, and such of the former treaty negotiated by Captain Burney, in 1826, as shall still remain in operation. He shall also give effect to all rules or regulations that are now or may hereafter be enacted for the government of British subjects in Siam, and conduct of their trade, and for the provention of viola- tions of the laws of Siam. Any disputes arising between British and Siamese subjects shall be heard and determined by the Consul, in conjunction with the proper Siamese officers; and criminal offences will be punished, in the case of English offenders, by their own laws, through the Siamese authorities. But the Consul shall not interfere in any matters referring solely to Siamese, neither will the Siamese authorities interfere in questions which only concern the subjects of Her Britannic Majesty.

It is understood, however, that the arrival of the British Consul at Bangkok shall not take place before the ratification of this treaty, nor until 10 vessels owned by British subjects sailing under British colours and with British papers, shall have entered the port of Bangkok for the purposes of trade, subsequent to the signing of this treaty.

　　　　Art. III.-If Siamese in the employ of British subjects offend against the laws of their country, or if any Siamese having so offended, or desiring to desert, take refuge with a British subject in Siam, they shall be searched for, and, upon proof of their guilt or desertion, shall be delivered up by the Consul to the Siamese authorities. In like manner any British offenders resid nt or trading in Siam, who may desert, escape to, or hide themselves in Siamese territory, shall be apprehended and delivered over to the British Consul on his requisition. Cuinese not able to prove themselves to be British subjects, shall not be considered as such by the British Consul, nor be entitled to his protection.

Art. IV.-British subjects are permitted to trade freely in all the seaports of Siam, but may reside permanently only at Bangkok, or within the limits assigned by this

TREATY BETWEEN GREAT BRITAIN AND SIAM.

Treaty. British subjects coming to reside at Bangkok may rent land, and buy or build bouses, but cannot purchase land within a circuit of 200 sen (not more than 4 miles English) from the city walls, until they shall have lived in Siam for ten years, or shall obtain special authority from the Siamese Government to enable them to do so. But with the exception of this limitation, British residents in Siam may at any time buy or rent houses, lauds, or plantations, situated anywhere within a distance of twenty-four hours' journey from the city of Bangkok, to be computed by the rate at which boats of the country can travel. In order to obtain possession of such land or houses, it will be necessary that the British subject shall, in the first place, make application through the Consul to the proper Siamese officers; and the Consul having satisfied himself of the honest intentions of the applicant, will assist him in settling, upon equitable terms, the amount of the purchase money, will mark out and fix the boundaries of the property, and will convey the same to the British purchasers under sealed deeds. Whereupon he and his property shall be placed under the protection of the Governor of the district and that of the particular local authorities; he shall conform, in ordinary matters, to any just directions given him by them, and will be subject to the same taxation that is levied on Siamese subjects. But if through negligence, and want of capital or other cause, a British subject should fail to commence the cultivation or improvement of the lands so acquired within a term of three years from the date of receiving possession thereof, the Siamese Government shall bave the power of resuming the property, upon returning to the British subject the purchase-money paid by him for the same.

Art. V.-All British subjects intending to reside in Siam shall be registered at the British Consulate. They shall not go out to sea, nor proceed beyond the limits assigned by this treaty for the residence of British subjects, without a passport from the Siamese authorities, to be applied for by the British Consul; nor shall they leave Siam, if the Siamese authorities show to the British Consul that legitimate objections exist to their quitting the country. But within the limits appointed under the preceding article, British subjects are at liberty to travel to and fro under protection of a pass, to be furnished them by the British Consul, and counter-sealed by the proper Siamese officer, stating, in the Siamese character, their names, calling, and description. The Siamese officers at the Government stations in the interior may, at any time, call for the production of this pass, and immediately on its being exhibited, they must allow the parties to proceed: but it will be their duty to detain those persons who, by travelling without a pass from the Consul, render themselves liable to the suspicion of their being deserters; and such detention shall be immediately reported to the Consul.

　Art. VI.-All British subjects visiting or residing in Siam, shall be allowed the free exercise of the Christian religion, and liberty to build churches in such localities as shall be consented to by the Siamese authorities. The Siam-se Government will place no restrictions upon the employment by the English of Siamese subjects as servants, or in any other capacity. But whenever a Siamese subject belongs or owes service to some particular master, the servant, who engages himself to a British subject without the consent of his master, may be reclaimed by him; and the Siamese Government will not enforce an agreement be ween a British subject and any Siamese in his employ, unless made with the knowledge and coLsent of the master, who has a right to dispose of the services of the person engaged.

to

Art. VII.-British ships of war may enter the river, and anchor at Paknam, but they shall not proceed above Paknam, unless with the consent of the Siamese authorities, which shall be given when it is nec ssary that a ship shall go into dock for repairs. Any British ship of war conveying to Siam a public functionary accredited by Her Majesty's Government to the Court of Bangkok, shall be allowed to come up Bangkok, but shall not pass the forts called Pong Phrachamit and Pit-patch-nuck, unless expressly permitted to do so by the Siamese Government; but in the absence of a British ship of war, the Siamese authorities engage to furnish the Consul with a force sufficient to enable him to give effect to his authority over British subjects, and to enforce discipline among British shipping.

Art. VIII. The measurement duty hitherto paid by British vessels trading to Bangkok under the treaty of 1826 shall be abolished from the date of this treaty

coming into operation, and British shipping and trade will henceforth be only subject to the payment of import and export duties on the goods landed or shipped. On all articles of import the duties shall be three per cent., payable at the option of the importer, either in kind or money, calculated upon the market value of the goods. Drawback of the full amount of duty shall be allowed upon goods found unsaleable and re-exported. Should the British merchant and the Custom-house officers dis- agree as to the value to be set upon imported articles, such disputes shall be referred to the Consul and proper Siamese officer, who shall each have the power to call in an equal number of merchants as assessors, not exceeding two on either side, to assist them in coming to an equitable decision.

Opium may be imported free of duty, but can only be sold to the opium farmer or bis agents. In the event of no arrangement being effected with them for the salo of the opium, it shall be re-exported, and no impost or duty shall be levied thereon. Any infringement of this regulation shall subject the opium to seizure and con- fiscation.

　　　Articles of export from the time of production to the date of shipment shall pay one impost only, whether this be levied under the name of inland tax, transit duty, or duty on exportation. The tax or duty to be paid on each article of Siamese produce previous to or upon exportation, is specified in the tariff attached to this Treaty; and it is distinctly agreed that goods or produce which pay any description of tax in the interior, shall be exempted from any further payment of the duty on exportation.

　　　English merchants are to be allowed to purchase directly from the producer the articles in which they trade, and in like manner to sell their goods directly to the parties wishing to purchase the same, without the interference, in either case, of any other person.

The rates of duty down in the tariff attached to this Treaty are those that are now paid upon goods or produce shipped in Siamese or Chinese vessels or junks; and it is agreed that British shipping shall enjoy all the privileges now exercised by, or which hereafter may be granted to, Siamese or Chinese vessels or junks.

　　　British subjects will be allowed to build ships in Siam, on obtaining permission to do so from the Siamese authorities.

Whenever a scarcity may be apprehended of salt, rice, or fish, the Siamese Government reserve to themselves the right of prohibiting, by public proclamation, the exportation of these articles.

Bullion or personal effects may be imported free of charge.

Art. IX.-The code of regulations appended to this Treaty shall be enforced by the Consul, with the co-operation of the Siamese authorities; and they, the said authorities and Consul, shall be enabled to introduce any further regulations which may be found necessary, in order to give effect to the objects of this Treaty.

All fines and penalties inflicted for infraction of the provisious and regulations

of this Treaty shall be paid to the Siamese Government.

　　　Until the British Consul shall arrive at Bangkok, and enter upon his functions, the consignees of British vessels shall be at liberty to settle with the Siamese autho- rities all questions relating to their trade.

　　　Art. X.-The British Government and its subjects will be allowed free and equal participation in any privileges that may have been, or may hereafter be granted by the Siamese Government to the Government or subjects of any other nation.

　　　Art. XI. After the lapse of ten years from the date of the ratification of this Treaty, upon the desire of either the British or Siamese Government, and on twelve months' notice being given by either party, the present and such portions of the Treaty of 1826 as remain unrevoked by this Treaty, together with the Tariff and Regulations hereunto annexed, or those that may hereafter be introduced, shall be subject to revision by Commissioners appointed on both sides for this purpose, who will be empowered to decide on and insert therein such amendments as experience shall prove to be desirable.

These ratifications were exchanged at Bangkok on the 5th April, 1856.

GENERAL REGULATIONS UNDER WHICH BRITISH TRADE

IS TO BE CONDUCTED IN SIAM.

Art. I. The master of any English ship coming to Bangkok to trade must, either before or after entering the river, as may be found convenient, report the arrival of his vessel at the Custom-house at Paknam, together with the number of his crew and guns, and the port from whence he comes. Upon anchoring bis vessel at Paknam, he will deliver into the custody of the Custom-house officers all his guns and ammunition; and a Custom-house officer will then be appointed to the vessel, and will proceed in her to Bangkok.

Art. II. A vessel passing Paknam without discharging her guns and ammunition as directed in the foregoing regulation, will be sent back to Paknam to comply with its provisions, and will be fined eight bundred ticals for having so disobeyed. After delivery of her guns and ammunition she will be permitted to return to Bangkok to trade.

Art. III. When a British vessel shall have cast anchor at Bangkok, the master, unless a Sunday should intervene, will within four-and-twenty hours after arrival proceed to the British Consulate, and deposit there his ship's papers, bills of lading, &c., together with a true manifest of his import cargo; and upon the Consul's reporting these particulars to the Custom-house, permission to break bulk will at once be given by the latter.

For neglecting so to report his arrival, or for presenting a false manifest, the master will subject himself, in each instance, to a penalty of four hundred ticals; but he will be allowed to correct, within twenty-four hours after delivery of it to the Consul, any mistake he may discover in his manifest, without incurring the above- mentioned penalty.

Art. IV. A British vessel breaking bulk, and commencing to discharge, before due permission shall be obtained, or smuggling, either when in the river or outside the bar, shall be subject to the penalty of eight bundred ticals, and confiscation of the goods so smuggled or discharged.

Art. V.-As soon as a British vessel shall have discharged her cargo, and completed her outward lading, paid all her duties, and delivered a true manifest of her outward cargo to the British Consul, a Siamese port-clearance shall be granted her on application from the Consul, who, in the absence of any legal impediment to her departure, will then return to the master his ship's papers, and allow the vessel to leave. A Custom-house officer will accompany the vessel to Paknam; and on arriving there she will be inspected by the Custom-house officer of that station, and will receive from them the guns and ammunition previously delivered into their charge. The above regulations, numbered from 1 to 5, are obligatory under the treaty concluded between Great Britain and Siam; those which follow, numbered from 6 to 14, are equally to be observed by masters of British vessels and their crews. Art. VI.-Masters of British vessels when reporting their arrival at Her Majesty's Consulate, at the port of Bangkok, as directed by the fourth regulation above quoted, shall notify in writing the names of all passengers and persons not forming part of the registered crew.

Notice must likewise be given of the number and names of persons, who, as passengers or in any other capacity (seamen borne on the muster-roll excepted) intend to leave Siam in a British vessel.

Art. VII.-Seamen, lascars, and others belonging to British vessels in the port are strictly prohibited to wear side knives and other weapons while on shore.

　　Art. VIII.-Should any seaman or apprentice absent himself without leave, the master will report his absence, if such exceeds twenty-four hours, at the Consulate office.

Art. IX.-Any British subject who entices a seaman or apprentice to desert, incurs according to the Merchant Shipping Act, 1854, paragraph 257, a penalty not exceeding ten pounds; or any such subject who wilfully harbours or secretes a person deserted from his ship, incurs a penalty not exceeding twenty pounds, if it be proved that he had knowledge of his being a deserter.

In default of the payment of such fines, the offender is to be imprisoned in the Consular gaol for any term not exceeding three months, with or without hard labour. Art. X.-All cases of death, and especially of sudden death, occurring on board of British vessels in the port of Bangkok, must be immediately reported at the Con- sulate.

Art. XI. The discharge of guns from vessels anchored in the port of Bangkok, without notice having been previously given, and permission obtained through H.M. Consul from the proper Siamese authority, is forbidden, under a penalty not exceed- ing ten pounds.

Art. XII.-It is strictly prohibited to shoot birds within the precincts of the Wats or Temples, either in Bangkok or elsewhere within the Siamese dominions, or to injure or damage any of the statues of figures, the trees or shrubs in such localities of Siamese worship; any British subject or seaman of a British vessel guilty of such an act renders himself liable to a penalty not exceeding twenty pounds, or in default thereof to an imprisonment in the Consular gaol for a period of not more than one month.

Art. XIII.-When a vessel under the British flag is ready to leave the port of Bangkok, the master will give notice at the Consulate-office, and hoist a blue peter twenty-four hours before her departure, which is to fly until she breaks anchorage.

Art. XIV. Should any vessel take in or discharge cargo subsequent to the issue of the Siamese port clearance, as directed by the fifth regulation above quoted, the master, as in a case of smuggling, subjects himself to a penalty of 800 Ticals (equal to £100), and the goods so taken or discharged will be liable to confiscation.

Art. XV.-Every fine or penalty levied under these regulations, is (if not paid in sterling money) at the rate of eight ticals Siamese currency for one pound.

RULES FOR THE GOVERNMENT OF BRITISH SUBJECTS IN SIAM.

RULES AND REGULATIONS FOR THE PEACE, ORDER, AND GOOD

GOVERNMENT OF HER BRITANNIC MAJESTY'S

SUBJECTS IN SIAM.

285

Art. I.-Her Britannic Majesty's Consulate-office shall be open for the transac- tion of public business from 10 o'clock A.M. to 4 o'clock P.M. daily, excepting Sundays and those holidays upon which offices in England are closed.

Art. II.-British subjects intending to reside within the dominions of the Kings of Siam, are required, in conformity with the 5th article of the Treaty concluded between Her Majesty and the Kings of Siam, to enrol themselves in the register of British residents kept for that purpose at the Consulate. Failing to do so within fourteen days after their arrival, without there is valid reason to account for the omission, they are not entitled, conformably to the Order of Her Majesty in Council, dated at the Court of Osborne House, Isle of Wight, the 28th day of July, 1856, to protection under the Consul's authority.

British subjects on leaving Siam as a residence are equally required to report themselves at the Consulate, at least forty-eight hours before their departure.

Seamen borne on the muster-roll of a British vessel are exempt from this obligation. Art. III. In compliance with the Order of Her Majesty in Council, dated the 1st of May, 1858, a register of all births and deaths occurring amongst British subjects in Siam is kept at the Consulate. The registration fee of each case is two shillings and sixpence.

The period in which such registration can take place after the occurrence of the event in foreign countries has been fixed by Her Majesty's Government to be seven years; this being the utmost limit that can be allowed for such registration.

　　　　Art. IV. In the event of a sudden death, either by accident or otherwise amongst the subjects of Her Majesty residing here, it must forthwith be reported at Her Majesty's Consulate, in order that such measures may be taken as the circumstances require.

Art. V.-British subjects in Siam desiring to trade beyond the limits stipulated by the Treaty, must apply for a passport to the Consulate a reasonable time before their intended departure; as that document must be countersigned by the proper Siamese authority.

Persons travelling without a pass render themselves liable to be treated as de- serters, and will be detained at the government stations in the interior until the case having been reported to the Consul, instructions ou the subject have been received.

　　　Art. VI. In all cases of loss of British property by theft or fraud, assault or felony, whether committed on shore or on board of a British vessel in harbour, the occurrence must be forthwith reported at the Consulate-office, and in cases of theft, peculation, or assault where British and Siamese subjects are both concerned, a Siamese, if guilty of any criminal act, may be conveyed to Her Majesty's Consulate, provided there is no responsible officer of his country at hand to whom the offender might be delivered. But British subjects will not be permitted to use violence to Siamese offenders, or take steps for the redress of their grievances, under peril of rendering themselves liable for the prosecution of an assault.

　　　Art. VII.-It is strictly forbidden a British subject, whether permanently or temporarily residing in Bangkok, or in any other part of Siam, to enter the precincts of a Wat or Siamese Temple for the purpose of shooting pigeons or other birds; nor is it permitted to injure the edifices, or the symbols of Siamese worship of their tombs, or to damage any of the trees and shrubs within the last. Any infringement of this rule will subject the offender to a fine not exceeding twenty pounds, or in default of such payment, to imprisonment in the Consular gaol for a period not exceeding one month, with or without hard labour.

IX.-When a subject of one of the Contracting German States, residing permanently or temporarily in the Kingdom of Siam, has any cause of complaint or any claim against a Siamese, he shall first submit his grievance to the German Consular Officer, who, after having examined the affair, shall endeavour to settle it amicably. In the same manner when a Siamese shall have a complaint to make against any German subject the Consular Officer shall listen to his complaint, but if in such case this proves impossible, the Consular Officer shall apply to the competent Siamese functionary, and having conjointly examined the affair, they shall decide thereon according to equity.

Art.

The same course shall be followed by the Siamese authorities in all acts of pillage or robbery directed against the property of German subjects on shore. The Siamese Government shall not be held responsible for property stolen from German subjects, as soon as it is proved that it has employe l all means in its power for the recovery of the same; and this principle shall equally hold good with regard to Siamese subjects living under the protection of any of the Contracting German States, and to their property.

All coucealment and connivance shall be carefully avoided by both parties.

Art. XIII. Should a subject of any of the Contracting German States, engaged in business in the Kingdom of Siam, become bankrupt, the German Consular Officer shall take possession of all his goods, in order to distribute them proportionately among the creditors, for which end he shall receive every aid from the Siamese authorities; he shall also neglect no means to seize, on behalf of the creditors, all the goods which the said bankrupt may possess in other countries. In like manner in Siam the authorities of the Kingdom shall adjudicate and distribute the effects of Siamese subjects who may become insolvent in their commercial transactions with subjects of the Contracting German States.

Art. XIV. Should a Siamese subject refuse or evade the payment of a debt to a German subject, the Siamese authorities shall afford the creditor every aid and facility for recovering what is due to him.

Every infraction will be punished by a fine.

The Line of Mooring.

III. The Harbour-master shall direct the masters of vessels not to moor their vessels very near the shore. The vessels shall be so moored as that they will not be liable to swing round and strike any floating house. They shall not be moored at the mouth of any canal, but shall be arranged in a line up and down the river. Masters of vessels are hereby forbidden to fasten their cable to the shore, so as to form obstructions to the passage of boats near the shore.

Collision and Sinking of Vessels.

IV. If vessels come into collision with one another, and are injured, and persons lose their lives by the accident, and property be lost, or damaged to whatever amount, report must be made of it to the Harbour-master, who will then examine the matter, and report to the proper authority, who will adjudicate the case.

If a vessel coming in or going out shall spring a leak, and sink in the channel of the river, the master of the same shall employ men to remove that obstruction. Bat should be not do this, the Harbour-master shall cause it to be done, and whatever be the cost of that work it shall be paid by the master of the said vessel.

Liabilities of Vessels not properly Moored.

V.-If the master of any vessel do not abide by the 2nd and 3rd articles as above stated, and a large vessel dropping down or coming up the river shall run against such a vessel and injure ber, damages may be claimed from the vessel thus causing the injury.

If a small vessel shall run against a vessel not properly moored, and the small vessel be sunk thereby, and property damaged or lost, to whatever amount, the master of the large vessel shall pay the worth of all property lost or damaged and pay a fine of one hundred and sixty ticals, because he did not take care to follow the directions given in articles 2nd and 3rd.

If a vessel shall remove from her berth to receive merchandise, and be fastened close to a wharf, one or two abreast of each other, but not so that the way for the passing of boats outside shall be obstructed-or shall put into shore to cast out ballast, or do anything else, and the vessel be in close contact with the shore or wharf, and there be left no passage for boats between her and the shore, ropes may in such cases be extended from her to the shore, for the purpose of retaining ber place.

The Royal Barges, seats of either the first or second king, are allowed to be moored in front of the royal palaces; and although their cables and ropes be made fast to the shore, it shall not be unlawful, because they are near the seats of the kings on the bank of the river, it not being suitable that any persons besides those engaged in royal service should come near to them.

　　　If any one attempt to pass between the said Barges and the Royal seats on the river's bank, and run against their cables, or ropes, and the boat be capsized, all damages thus resulting shall be suffered by the owner of the boat, because the act had been forbidden. There are only two such places, viz. :-one in front of the First King's Palace, and one in front of the Second King's Palace. Again, masters of boats in the canals, laden with goods coming out to moor in the river with the view to sell their merchandise, if they wish to anchor near the shore may do so, provided they leave an open passage between their boats and the shore sufficient for small boats

to pass.

According to Article IV., if a small boat get entangled in the ropes or chains of the vessels by which they are held in their proper places according to those laws, or run against a vessel thus orderly moored, and be capsized, and property be lost by the accident in whatever way, the owner of the boat capsized shall not claim any damages. Respect to be paid to the Kings when passing.

　　　VII.-If either of their Majesties the Kings of Siam desire to pass on the river, and a vessel riding at anchor sball in any wise interrupt the way, and the Harbour- master or other officer in charge shall order said vessel to move out of the way, then the master of the vessel shall be bound to obey that order within the space of three hours.

And concerning all vessels of commerce lying at anchor in the river, whenever the Royal Barges bearing either of their Majesties the Kings of Siam shall approach near them, it is requested that their colours be drawn up to bestow a Royal salute according to custom. And the people who may be on board these vessels at the time. can act their pleasure either to retire out of sight of the King as he passes, or come out and salute him, according to the custom of the country and the language to which they belong. But let them not walk back and forth, or get up and sit down on the bulwarks with their feet dangling down the sides of the vessels, or go up the mast, or perform work thereon at the time, because this would be regarded by the Siamese as an insult offered to the King.

If such offence be committed, or the vessel fail to be removed out of the King's way, and she be one belonging to the Kingdom of Siam, the Siamese officer in charge shall inflict the punishment due. But if the vessel be a merchant vessel belonging to a foreign port, coming under the jurisdiction of either of the Consuls, complaint of the same shall be made to the Consul.

Collision of Vessels.

VIII.-In case a large vessel, coming up or going down the river, runs into another vessel, or into a floating house, or any building that is orderly moored, and damage property, the master of said vessel shall cause to be made a due estimate of the damage done, and pay it, be the same little or much. But if the vessel which did the damage be herself injured to whatever amount, she shall not claim any damages of the vessel, or floating house, or other float by which she was thus damaged, because she herself alone ran into the other.

Again, steamboats in Siam, which are to be many in the future, when they come or go with or against the tide, shall not pass near the shore, but between the lines of large vessels at anchor. The reason of this law is, that steamboats have great power and speed, so that small craft will be likely not to have time to get out of their way.

Concerning Floating Dwellings or Rafts of Timber or Bumboo Drifting in the River.

IX.-If a raft be broken into parts, floating with the current, and if any vessel being moored so as to straiten the way which Articles II. and III. of these laws provided to have remained open and free, and the raft float against the vessel, and ber master cut the raft, and it be consequeatly broken to pieces, and timber be lost, damages shall in such cases be paid to the owner of the raft. But if a rafɩ flat against such a vessel, and the vessel be damaged thereby, to whatever extent, ner master or owner shall not claim damages of the owners of the raft.

　　　　Again, whoever would float a raft on the river, shall be provided with a cable, and shall by its aid make fast and slacken here and there, and thus float care ully along, taking particular caution to pass in the passage between the line of vessels at

anchor, and the floating houses regularly moored. If its owner choose to have it pass on this or that side of them, he shall keep to that choice through all the way.

If a raft float down, and come into collision with a vessel that is moored according to Articles II. and III., the master of the vessel may cut the raft and send it adrift. But he shall do no other damage to the owner of the raft nor take possession of bis timber. If any of the timber be lost by this means the owners may not claim any damages from the master of the vessel.

If the master or owner of the vessel has not cut the raft asunder, but it break apart of itself, and then float against a vessel thus lawfully moored and injure ber in any wise, the owner of the raft shall pay the damages.

Again, whoever would float a raft shall not be allowed to make any rope fast to the cable of a vessel moored in the river. And no large vessel or raft shall be allowed to float up or down with the tide in the night time. Again, if any one would float his raft with the tide, he shall not pass very near the shore, so as to be likely to run against a floating house properly moored and thus injure it. Damages thus occasioned shall be paid by the owner of the raft.

Wherever there are no vessels anchored in the river rafts are allowed to float down in the middle of the stream, and if it be desired to make the raft fast to the shore this also may be done. If any raft or boat run against the ropes thus employed, and the boat be capsized and property damaged, no damages shall be claimed from the owner of the raft thus moored; because rafts are not, as vessels, easily managed. Common sense will teach that it is not suitable to think of passing between a raft and the shore by which it is moored.

Within the following twenty-four hours the Consul shall send to the Chief of Customs an extract from the roll of the ship and a detailed note of the name of the ship, her legal tonnage, and the nature of her cargo. If in consequence of the negligence of the captain this last formality shall not have been accomplish d within the forty-eight bours following the arrival of the ship the Captain shall be liable to a fine of fifty dollars for each day of such delay, such fine to go to the Custom-house, but the whole amount of such penalty shall not exceed two hundred dollars.

Immediately after receipt of the note from the Consulate, the Chief of Customs shall give a permit to open the hold.

in order to watch his interests when the verification is proceeded with for the liquida- tion of the dues, in default of which, any subsequent re-claim shall be null andˇof no effect.

If the merchant cannot agree with the Annamese employé on the value to be fixed each party shall call in two or three n erchants to examine the goods and the highest price which shall be offered shall be considered the value of the said goods.

　　　　The dues shall be calculated on the net weight. If the merchant cannot agree with the Annamese employé as to the amount of tare, each party shall select a certain number of the bales or cases, and the one on which there is the least tare shall be taken as fixing the amount of tare on the others.

If during the course of the verification any difficulty arise which cannot be decided, the merchant may claim the intervention of the Consul, who shall imme- diately submit the matter to th" Chief of Customs, and these two shall arrive at an amicable arrangement; but the claim must be made within the twenty-four hours or it cannot be entertained.

　　　　Art. XIX.-Import dues shall be paid by the captains and merchants as soon as the goods shall have been discharged and verified. Export dues shall be paid in the same way upon the loading of the goods. When the tonnage and customs dues payable by a vessel shall bave been entirely paid the Chief of Customs shall give a general clearance, on the exhibition of which the Consul shall return the ship's papers to the captain and allow him to leave.

　　　　It shall, however, if the captain consent, be lawful for the Customs administra- tion (in order to facilitate the operations of trade) to calculate the dues according to the bills of lading without its being necessary to discharge the goods in order to ascertain their value and quantity.

　　　　Art. XX. After the expiration of the two days mentioned in Art. XVIII., and befor proc eding to discharge, each merchant vessel shall pay entirely the light and anchorage dues fixed by Article III. No other due, fee, or surcharge shall be required under any pretext.

Art. XXI.-A foreign vessel entering one of the open ports and wishing to discharge a part only of its cargo shall pay customs dues only on the part discharged; the remainder of the cargo may be carried to another port and there sold. The dues shall then be paid.

In cases where foreigners, having paid in one port the dues on their goods, wish to re-export them and send them for sale to another port, they shall notify the Consul or Consular Agent; the latter shall inform the Chief of Customs, who, after having verified the identity of the goods and the perfect integrity of the packages, shall remit to the applicants a declaration attesting that the dues leviable on such goods have in fact been paid.

Provided with this declaration the foreign merchants on their arrival in the other port shall only have to present it through the Consul to the Chief of Customs

who shall deliver for this part of the cargo, without delay or cost, a permit to dis- charge it free of dues; but if the authorities discover fraud or contraband articles among the goods thus re-exported, these shall be, after verification, confiscated to the profit of the Custom-house.

Art. XXII.--No transhipment of goods can take place except under special permit and in case of urgency. If the operation be indispensable it must be referred to the Consul, who will deliver a certificate, on view of which the transhipment will be authorised by the Chief of Customs. The latter may always delegate an employé of his administration to assist in it.

Every unauthorised transhipment, except in cases where there may be peril in delay, shall entail the confiscation to the profit of the Custom-house of the whole of the goods illicitly transhipped.

Art. XXIII.-In each of the ports open to foreign trade the chief of the Customs shall receive for himself and shall deposit at the French Consulate legal balances for goods and for money, in order that the weights and measures may exactly conform to the weights and measures in use in Annam, and they shall bear a stamp and seal attesting this conformity. These standards shall be the base of ali liquidations of dues and payments to be made. They shall be referred to in case of dispute as to the weights or measure of goods and the dispute shall be settled according to the results which they show.

J

Art. XXIV. All merchandise imported or exported in a contraband manner by foreign ships or merchants, whatever may b their value and nature, as also every prohibited commodity fraudulently discharged, shall be seized by the local authority and confiscated. The Annamese Government may also, if it thinks proper, interdict the vessel taken in contravention of this from entering its ports and compel it to leave immediately after settlement of its accounts. It any foreign vessel shall fraudulently sail under a flag to which it is not entitled the French authorities shall take the necessary measures for the repression of this abuse.

The total proceeds of the sale of confiscated articles shall go to the Custom- house. The results of fines for contravention of the Customs regulations in the open ports shall also go to the Custom-house.

Art. XXV.-His Excellency the President of the French Republic may station a ship of war in the open ports of the Empire where its presence may be judged necessary to maintain good order and discipline among the crews of merchant vessels and to facilitate the exercise of the Consular authority. All necessary measures shall be taken in order that the presence of these ships of war may not entail any incon- venience. Ships of war shall not be subject to any dues.

Art. XXVI.-Every French ship of war cruising for the protection of trade shall be received and treated as a friend in all the ports of Annam where it may present itself. These ships may procure there the divers objects of refitment and revictualling which they may need, and if they have met with damage may repair, and to this end purchase the necessary materials, the whole without the least opposition.

The same shall apply to trading vessels, French or foreign, which, in consequence of serious damage or for other cause, are compelled to seek refuge in any port of Annam. But these vessels shall remain only temporarily and as soon as the cause of their distress shall have ceased, they shall set sail and shall not be allowed to pro- long their stay nor to trade.

If a vessel be wrecked upon the coast, the nearest authority, upon receiving iu- formation, shall at once send assistance to the crew, provide for their immediate wants, and take the necessary measures for the salvage of the vessel and the preservation of the merchandise. He shall then acquaint the nearest Consul or Consular Agent with the disaster, in order that the latter, in concert with the competent authorities, may arrange means for assisting the crew and saving the remains of the cargo.

The port of Thuan-an, on account of its situation on a river leading to the capital and its proximity to the capital, shall be an exception, and no foreign ship-of-war or trading vessel may enter it.

　　　Art. XXVIII.-The French Government renews its promise made to the Anna- mese Government in Art. II. of the treaty of 15th March to use every effort for the destruction of the land and sea pirates, particularly in the neighbourhood of the towns and ports open to European trade, in order to render the operations of com- merce as secure as possible.

1. In the Construction of this Act, the Term Chinese Passenger Ships shall include every ship carrying from any port in Hongkong, and every British ship carrying from any port in China or within one hundred miles of the coast thereof, more than twenty passengers, being natives of Asia; the word Colony shall include all Her Majesty's Possessions abroad not being under the Government of the East India Company; the word Governor shall signify the person for the time being lawfully administering the Government of such colony; the term Legislature of Hongkong shall signify the Governor and Legislative Council or other legislative authority of the same for the time being; the word Ship shall include all seagoing vessels; the term Commander and Master of any ship shall include any person for the time being in command or charge of the same; the term Emigration Officer shall include every person lawfully acting as emigration officer, immigration agent or protector of emigrants, and every person authorized by the Governor of any British colony to carry out the Provisions of this Act; and the term British Consul shall include every person lawfully exercising Consular authority on behalf of Her Majesty in any foreign port.

III. It shall be lawful for the Governor of Hongkong to declare, by proclamation, for the purposes of this Act and of the said regulations, what shall be deemed to be the duration of the voyage of any Chinese passenger ship, and by such proclamation to alter the scales of dietary, medicines, and medical conforts contained in the aforesaid schedule (4).

IV.-No Chinese passenger ship shall clear out or proceed to sea on any voyage of more than seven days' duration until the master thereof shall have received from an emigration officer a copy of the aforesail regulations, and a certificate in the form contained in schedule B to this Act annexed, or in such other form as may be prescribed by the said Legislature, which copy and certificate, with any documents to be attached thereto (hereinafter designated as emigration papers), shall be signed by the said emigration officer, nor until the master shall, with two sufficient sureties, to

be approved by the said emigration officer, have entered into a joint and several bond in the sum of one thousand pounds to Her Majesty, her heirs and successors, in the form contained in schedule C to this Act annexed, or in such other form as shall be prescribed by the said Legislature.

V.-The said penal sum of one thousand pounds shall be due and recoverable, notwithstanding any penalty or forfeiture imposed by this Act or by the aforesaid regulations, and whether such penalties or forfeitures shall have been sued for and

recovered or not.

VI.-It shall be lawful for commanders of any of Her Majesty's ships of war, or for any emigration officer, Custom-house officer, or British Consul, to enter and search any Chinese passenger ship (being a British vessel or within British Jurisdiction) so long as such ship shall have any passengers on board, and forty-eight hours afterwards, and in case such ship shall be engaged on a voyage of more than seven days' duration, to require the production of the emigration papers of such ship, and to examine all persons on board of the same, in order to ascertain whether the provisions of this Act, and of the regulations aforesaid, have been complied with: and any person who refuses to allow, attempts to avoid, or obstructs any such entry, search, or examination, or who knowingly misleads or deceives any person lawfully making any such search or examination, or who, being the master of the ship or having the emigration papers in his custody, fails to produce the same when required as aforesaid, shall be deemed guilty of a misdemeanour.

VII.-In case of any neglect or refusal to comply with any of the provisions of this Act or any of the regulations aforesaid, or to perform any stipulation in any of the contracts made with the passengers, the master of the ship, and any other persons who may have been guilty of, or have aided or abetted such neglect or refusal, sball each be deemed for each offence guilty of misdemeanour.

XI.-No such officer as aforesaid shall be responsible, either civilly or criminally, to any persons whomsoever in respect of the s izure or detention of any ship that has been seized or detained by him in pursuance of the provisions herein contained, notwithstanding that such ship is not brought in for adjudication, or, if so brought in, is declared not to be liable to forfeiture, if it is shown to the satisfaction of the judge or court before whom any trial relating to such ship or such seizure or detention is held, that there are reasonable grounds for such seizure or detention, but if no such grounds are shown, such judge or court may award payment of costs and damages to any party aggrieved, and make such other order in the premise as he or it thinks just. XII.-It shall be lawful for the court before which any ship liable to forfeiture under this act is proceeded against, to impose such a pecuniary penalty as to the same court shall seem fit, in lieu of condemning the ship, and in such case to cause

　　　XVI. The duties of pilots will be taken in turns among those qualifiel by the Harbour Master. On the 1st of each month a distribution is to be made of the fees received.

　　　XVII.-A fall of the barometer, indicative of bad weather will be announced by the firing of a gun and the hoisting of a white flag with a red square in the centre at the staff on the Canton wharf. The flag will be replaced by two green lights, hoisted perpendicularly, during the night.

　　　XVIII. Shipmasters are specially recommended to see that a clear hawse is always kept, have their sheet anchors ready to let go, and take all other usual precau- tions to insure their vessels against bad weather. The signals made by the Harbour Master are merely precautionary and indicative of a coming storm, the force of which as well as its passage over this port can never be predicted.

　　　The flood tide, when regular (which is seldom), runs round Cabreta Point towards the town of Macao; but a little outside of the Point it sets along the land to the north, across the bay, until it meets the tide from Capsing-moon (or Capsbui-moon,

"the swift water passage"), above Lintin, when it flows in a direct channel towards the Bogue. The velocity of the flood tide in Macao Roads is about 2 miles in the north- east monsoon and moderate weather; but when it blows strong from the northward there is no apparent flood. The ebb then runs at the rate of 3 to 3, and 4 miles when the water is falling by the land. The ebb tide sets out from the town of Macao much in the same way as the flood comes in, with the difference of running a little more to the westward along the shore, before it takes the southerly direction; the latter part of this tide is therefore the best time for boats to start for Lintin or Canton, with a contrary wind, as they then get out far enough to have all the flood to work to the northward with.

　　　The tides at Lintin run north and south, or nearly so. The velocity of the ebb in the north-east monsoon when blowing strong, is much the same as in Macao Roads; but there is always a perceptible flood of 1 or 1 miles. During the height of the south-west monsoon, the ebb runs at times at the rate of 6 and 63 miles, after heavy rains; at that season the floods are very weak.

The flood ceases rising at this hour, but the stream in the middle of the river runs up a considerable time longer.

PAKHOI.

SAILING DIRECTIONS.

The Port of Kiung-chow, which is commonly called Hoi-how by Foreigners in China, is not known by that name in Hainan, but is called there Haik'ao, a fact which it is well for a captain of a vessel to bear in mind. The captain of a vessel starting from Haik'ao for Pak-hoi ought, before weighing anchor, to ascertain the condition of the tidal current which runs East and West and vice versú with great force in the Hainan Straits, and in his subsequent navigation to make due allowance for its eff ct.

It is the simplest and safest plan to leave in the evening and to steer from the centre of the Hainan Straits West till Haik'ao is 30 miles distant, so as to keep absolutely clear of any danger off Cape Cauie.

Having gone thus far, a course N.W. W. for 34 miles and then a course North for 30 miles further ou, ht to bring a steamer about daylight to the first land, namely the small island called on the charts Chayune, but known to Chinese as Ch'iel Yang. This island, which is high and bold, lies about 34 miles S.S.E. off Kuan-tow Head in Lat. 20° 54 N. and Long. 109° 13 E. About 7 miles to the N.W. of it is the island of Wei-chow, called on the charts Guiechow. Though larger in area, the latter island is much less elevated than Ch'ieh Yang (Chayune). To the E.N.E. of Wei-chow (Guie-chow), where there is a Catholic Missionary resident, 3.coral reef extends for about a mil. After passing Ch'ieh Yang (Chayune) about mile to the East of it in 9 or 10 fat ioms and keeping well clear of the ref off Wei-chow (Guie-chow), a course to N.N.W. will lead to Kwan-tow Head, which will make as an island.

　　　　There are 5 fathoms of water to within of a mile of this headland. Between> the island of Ch'ieh Yang (Chayune) and Kuan-tow Head innumerable heavy fishing stakes exist, which render it a very imprudent thing for a vessel to attempt to navigate this distance after dark.

　　　Kuan-tow Head is a bold teadland 390 feet high, forming the western extremity of a narrow peninsula of which the northern extremity is the projecting beach on which the village of Ti-kok, one of the limits of the Pak-boi anchorage, is built. To enter the harbour after having reached about of a mile to the West of Kuan-tow Head, a vessel should steer for the Northern end of the fishing stakes which will. now be seen to the N.E. planted athwart the entrance of the harbour in tiers run-- ning N.N.W. from the village of Ti kok for a distance of 830 yards, taking care not to get into less water than 3 fathoms, as a sand spit runs out in a N.E. direction/ from the N.N.W. point of the Hal; at the same time a vessel must not go too far: off, as there is a sandbank running East and West to the N. of the fishing stakes.. The fishing stakes can be passed close alongside (some in fact occupy the deepest part of the channel), after which a course East ly South for a short distance takes a vessel to her anchorage.

There is a detached hill to the East of Kuan-tow Head 130 feet high, known as Ti-kok Hill. When this hill bears South-West and the Northern end of the fishing stakes bears West North, good anchorage will be found in 4 fathoms at low water.

The tides at Pak-hoi are not regular. There is as a rule only one tide in the 24 hours, which varies in its rise and fall from eight feet to seventeen feet.

　　　　The soundings from Haik'ao to Pak-hoi are regular and by attention to the. lead notice of approach to land will be given in ample time to avoid accident.

As the positions of Ch'ieh Yang (Chayune) Weichow (Guie-chow) and Kuan... tow Head were incorrectly laid down in the old charts, care ought to be taken to use chart No. 2062 Admiralty, corrected up to March, 1872, on information furnished by Captain Cocker, of the Ling-feng. The position of the village of Ti-kok is Lat.. 21° 28′ N. and Long. 109° 5' 5 E. The anchorage at Pak-hoi is good and safe- in any weather.

It is protected on the North by a sandbank having a few feet of wa'er at low tide. This bank lies in the direction E.N.E. and extends for about 1 miles on either side of the stakes, passing the Northern extremity at a distance of about 60 yards.

　　　　On the South and East, the anchorage is protected by the sea beach. The exposed side faces the West, but it is stated that there is no force in the Westerly winds here. The holding_ground, which consists of mud and sand, is good. The entire space to the North-West, North, and North-East of the Sandbank forming the Northern boundary of the anchorage as far as the opposite sea-shore, which is some 8 or 9 miles distant, is taken up by lines of sandbanks, generally running East and West, some of which are exposed at low water. It is only possible for junks to navigate this part of the bay.

SAILING DIRECTIONS FOR THE BAY OF MANILA.

At the entrances to the Bay the prevailing winds are, during the greater part of the year, from N. to E.; moderate during the first months of the monsoon, but interrupted at times by strong Northerlies which last from one to three days: fresh when the monsoon is regularly established, particularly so from the outside of the entrances to the inside of Point Limay, from whence to the Bay they are morə moderate, and it may be remarked that they are seldom light in the entrances and fresh in the Bay at the same time; calm at the latter end of the monsoon, with squalls during the afternoon from S.E., S., and S.W., indicating the proximities of chargeable weather, and winds from S. to W., which become established during the month of June; light N.E. and S.E. pr. vail now till 9 or 10 a.m., when the sea breeze sets in from S. and S. W. and W. during the intervals of the squalls, which are fresh from S.W., accompanied by thick, cloudy weather and rain. These squalls last six, eigt, and ten days, and even as many as thirty, and from June to September ; while they last, fine weather is seldom experienced.

At the beginning of the N.E. monsoon the land winds on the S.E. coast of the Bay are from the E.; from February they shift to S.E., and are generally fresh enough to raise a swell and oblige reefs to be taken in the sails, especially in Boca Chica (the northerly entrance), on account of the strong gusts which come down from the ravines on the Island of Corregidor; they commence about four or five p.m., extending from Point Fuego, on the southern coast outside the Bay, to Point Limay, on the northern coast inside the Bay, and cease before midnight; when these winds are unseasonably late they last longer, and sometimes till late on to the following morning; from April, they are generally very light. In the northern part of the Bay-entrance to Pampanga-the land wind shifts to the north about midnight, and when fresh at this spot it extends to all parts of the Bay; it ceases at sunrise, from which time the regular monsoon succeeds it according to the season.

Between the monsoons the winds are generally N.W. outside, but rarely extend inside the Bay, and during these times, especially from September to November, it is when the typhoons or hurricanes usually take place, and oftentimes without any previous warning, not even from the barometers.

　During strong N. or N.W. winds there are no land winds, but otherwise they may always be counted upon inside the Bay.

　The tides are very moderate, and high water may always be counted upon between eleven and twelve o'clock at the entrance to Manila during conjunction or apposition, and half an hour earlier at the Island of Corregidor; during the rest of the month they are very irregular as to time and duration. The rise and fall never exceed six feet. At the entrance to the Bay when the ebb tide is backed by river currents and strong N.E. winds together, a delay of 12 or 14 hours takes place in the flow.

During strong S. Easterly weather, the tides are also longer in flowing than in ordinary times. To the S.E. of the Island of Corregidor the waters meet and pass through both entrances, forming currents in direction of the Island of Cabra. With an ebb tide and winds N.E. vessels should not hug the Island of Corregidor too closely, tacking when necessary between Points Fuego and Limbones-where the current is less, or to the West of Corregidor, if entering by Boca Chica, which is the better entrance on a N.E. wind.

The coast both N. and S. of the Corregidor is quite free from all dangers up to Point Luzon on the North and Point Fuego to the South. Vessels can tack well up to the land, avoiding, of course, too near an approach.

which has six feet of

The Monja has deep water all around and close up to it. The Lechones are clean with the exception of one rock, water on it, about a cable's length from shore, and bearing S. 8 deg. W. from the most Easterly rock.

　　　Outside the Corregidor there are the ports of Mariveles and Hamilo. The first to the N.W. of the Island (a plan of it is to be found on the chart of the Bay) is generally used as a halting place for tide or wind-bound vessels, anchoring on the Eastern side, and a look-out must be kept for the strong gusts which are felt sometimes on entering; during S.W. winds it is necessary to anchor on the sheltered or Western side. The port of Hamilo is a safe port, with an easy entrance, at the beginning of a typhoon; it is on the Southern coast at the bottom of the first Bay, between Points Fuego and Limbones-about five miles south of the latter. To find the anchorage, steer South from the entrance to Manila Bay till two small barren islands are sighted-the oue to the North, near to the land, having the appearance of an old fort in ruins; proceed between these islands or to the South of them, and when near to the ridge of the small pointed islands that cover the entrance, leave these to starboard-strering East ard keeping the centre of the passage, in which there are 18 to 20 fathoms of water, with sandy bottom, until you reach a suitable anchorage,-8 to 9 fathoms will be found inside with a mud bottom, and 4 fathoms close in to the shore. Caution is required in making this port from the sea, as two barren islands further to the South than those just described might be mistaken for them; these are close to Point Fuego, where the coast bends to the S.E.; they afford no shelter, and are surrounded by a rocky bottom.

　　The coast of Mariveles is free from danger until it diverges to the North, from whence towards Pampanga, and then cly within 3 to 4 cables' length from the shore, some rocks have been touched by vesse • venturing toɔ near.

　　The Island of Corregidor may be approached fearlessly on all sides but the Eastern, where a small pointed rock exists with a ridge extending South about half-way between the Island and Pulo Caballo.

There is a passage between Pulo Caballo and Corregidor, but it is not recom- mended.

The Fraile has deep water all around and close up to it.

　　The Southern coast as far as the high land extends is clean, with the exception of some rocks about half a mile from the beach off the second point E. of the small island Sinalan, in a line with the Fraile. On leaving the high land the lead will show shallow water very often, and vessels should not approach too near the low land in this vicinity. During Easterly and South Easterly winds, it is safe to approach the coast between Points Fuego and Limbones, and in short tacks get past the small Island of Sinalan, from whence a clear course opens to weather Pulo Caballo.

　　Vessels beating up Manila Bay should endeavour to reach the northern coast before night, so as to avail of the land breeze, which becomes weaker in proportion to the distance from the land.

St. Nicola's Bank is situated in a line with, and about half way between the Corregidor and the steeples of the Cavite churches; it is about 14 miles in circum- ference, and its least depth of water, one fathom, is on the N.E., increasing towards the N. and N.W. to 3, 6, 12, and 18 fathoms within a distance of one cable's

Telegraph Station on Point Palibuyo (on S.E. coast)...N. 24 Mount Arayat

.S. 1 47 E.

With a free wind vessels may pass on the Southern side of the shoal-keeping Corregidor at West till the Telegraph Station on Point Palibuyo bears S.S.E., when a N.E. course must be followed; but all the coast line between Marigondon and Salinas is shallow water and foul.

The North and Eastern coasts are shallow, and the lead will indicate that the land, which is low and marshy, must be kept at a distance. Fishing stakes will be found here at long distances from the beach, but as long as the lead does not announce danger, the stakes, which are of bamboo and harmless, need not be noticed.

On the west side of the Bay from Point Limay up to the parallel of Mount Orion a good anchorage will be found and shelter from the tempest of the S.W. monsoon. Without going to near the land, 10 to 12 fathoms will be found with a sandy bottom.

Vessels arriving at Cavite anchorage during Westerly gales, and desiring to communicate with the shore without delay, should steer for Cañaco-which is the bay between Point Sangley (a low sandy beach) and the town of Cavite. To find the anchorage-steer for Point Sangley, giving it a moderate berth, and let go the anchor in 4 fathoms. This is a secure position, where vessels can be visited and assisted if necessary by the authorities in weather that would render the Manila Bar impassable.

The only danger at Manila anchorage is at night, on nearing the Bar of the River Pasig. Eight fathoms will be found as long as the Lighthouse bears from N. to E., and continuing that course vessels may choose their own anchorage; but in thick weather it is advisable to anchor as soon as the lead marks under 8 fathoms. In the N.E. monsoon vessels can anchor nearer in shore, because land winds prevail; but during the S.W. monsoon and between the monsoons, when typhoons may be looked for, it is safer to anchor farther off, with two anchors N. and S., giving all vessels riding on one anchor only a wide berth.

RULES TO BE OBSERVED AT THE ANCHORAGES.

Captains must be careful when anchoring not to allow their anchors to become entangled with those of other vessels, and to leave these plenty of room for swinging; vessels infringing these rules will at once be required to change their berths.

Vessels occupying insecure or inconvenient berths must immediately change same on receiving notice to that effect from the Captain of the Port.

Vessels once at anchor must rot change their berths without previous permission from the Captain of the Port, unless in case of urgent necessity, in which case notice of and reasons for same must be given to the Captain of the Port as soon afterwards as possible.

Boats proceeding from vessels at the anchorage to the shore should be provided with an anchor ready for use, in case it should be required.

No vessel is allowed to enter the River without previously obtaining permission from the Captain of the Port, who has to give the necessary instructions for the purpose and provide Pilots and any other assistance that may be required.

A fine of $10 in each case will be imposed upon the captain of any vessel leaving the River for Cavite without permission, and for not presenting himself at once on his arrival at, or before leaving, the anchorage of Cañaco.

Vessels at the anchorage or entering the Bay in want of assistance may make use of the following Signals, which will be attended to, if practicable, by the consignees or by the Captain of the Port. The National flag should be used, and

Manila, 1st May, 1874.

THE NAVIGATION OF ILOILO.

BY NICOLAS LONEY, Esq., HER MAJESTY'S VICE-CONSUL.

1

Vessels bound from Manila, or from Ports to the Northward, during the N.E. monsoon, may safely proceed towards Iloilo by the Maricaban Passage between Luzon and Mindoro, and through the chain of Islands off N.E. coast of Panay. For this route, the charts of the Spanish "Commission Idrogafica," compiled by Don Claudio Monteros in 1857, would be useful. After passing Tablas and Remblon (which latter island possesses an excellent barbour, much frequent by coasting vessels as a port of refuge and for obtaining supplies), steer for the ¿ of small islands called collectively the" Silanga," lying off the N.E. of Panay, a mark for which is the high conical island called Pan de Azucar, or Sugar-loaf, which is visible from a great distance. In approaching these islauds during the N.E. monsoon, vessels should pass between the islets of Jintotolo and Zapato-Major, and during the S.W. monsoon more in towards the Panay shore, between Olutaty and Zapato-Minor. After leaving the Zapato, the course is to the south of the Gigantes, and the channel through ho the group of islands is generally entered between Snogon and Calanan, from whence the route is continued between Culebre and the main Pan de Azucar and Malangaban, inside Ygbon Buladingan and Tagubanban islands. Through the passage between these islands there is safe anchorage. The Estancia affords excellent

anchorage and shelter at all times, and at Apiton, opposite Tagubanham, there is also good anchorage in both monsoons. In the S.W. monsoon there is safe anchorage between Pan de Azucar and Sobrero islands, and in the bay of Malagonoes. In the N.E. monsoon, in addition to the Estancia and Apiton, there is good anchorage under Pan de Azucar, in the small bay or indent looking S.E. At Bacauan, or La Conception, is the residence of the Commandant of the district, and from hence assistance and supplies may be had, if needed, and at the place marked Apiton (Aguada) on the charts, good water is easily obtainable.

The broader channel between the islands of Panay and Negros, although ap- parently good, though formerly adopted by several ships bound to Iloilo, is now found not to be safe, there being large patches of shoal water with coral, imperfectly surveyed, extending off the Batayan and Negros shore. Vessels have occasionally touched in coming through this passage, and it should not therefore be taken.

After passing Tagubanban and Apiton, and emerging into the broad channel between Panay and Negros, the best course is to steer direct for the highest land visible on the island of Guimaras, care being taken to clear Pepitas Rocks, which lie some distance off the shore and are awash.

Leaving the Calabazas Islets and Pepitas, the route, after making the small block-house near Banate, is due south, until a group of seven remarkable rocks, which lie between the N.E. end of Guimarás and Panay shore, called the Siete Pecacos, are sighted. On opening the channel between the Guimaras and Panay and getting the Siete Pecados to bear W. N., steer direct for the passage between these rocks and the Panay shore. This course will clear the Iguana Bank, lying to the S.E. of the Pecados, with 1 to 2 fathers of water on it, and Point Dumanges to the N.E., the shoal water of which ex As to a considerable distance.

The lead is a good guide through the Siete Pecados channel, giving 41, 7, 8, 11, and 15 fathoms until the Pecados are passed to the southward, when the water deepens to 18 and 19 fathoms. The chanel between these rocks and Guimarás is not good. On passing the Pecados the south shore should be ept on board to avoid the shoal water ou the Panay side. When the fort, which is nu f-a-mile to the west of the river Iloilo, bears W.S.W., steer for it, anchoring as venient in 10 to 12 fathoms, a little more than a quarter of a mile off shore to the eastward of the river.

This

Though the northern passage just described is safe and convenient in the northerly monsoon, and is always used by coasters in both seasons, strangers will probably prefer the route along the west coast of Panay, making Iloilo from the south. route should always be adopted in the S.W. monsoon. Making the western coast of Panay from the Mindoro Straits, this coast, comprising the province of Antique, should be closed, as the westerly monsoon is not very regular, and does not often blow strongly between the Cuyos Island and Panay, or the north of Basiland. It may be approached with safety anywhere to the southward of the islands of Barbatan and Maralison, which latter bas a reef to the east and west. Barbatan, which is very steep, affords, with Lipata (under this latter point), the only available anchorage on the Antique cost during the S.W. monsoon, but in the N.E. monsoon the harbour of San José de Buena Vista is quite safe, and affords good supplies of provisions and water, being not unfrequently visited by whalers for that purpose.

The south coast of Panay is free from dangers till near the town of Otong. The coast of Guimarás to the north of Point Balingasag, or the north of Port St. Anna, is likewise safe. This port is capable of admitting vessels of large tonnage, and affords shelter under almost any circumstances. The bights along the coast have deep water, and vessels can work close in shore, or from point to point, with perfect safety; but generally there is no good anchorage, as the coast is steep and the holding ground not good.

In passing the S.W. point of Panay during the night, the islands of Juraojurao and Nogas should not be closed, as both have reefs round them to the southward. When clear of these islands on rounding the S. W. point of Panay, vessels rav safely steer N.E. by E. 32 miles without any danger, but alter running that distance they should heave-to during the night, or if the night is very clear run towards the Panay

shore keeping the lead going, and when the water shoals, anchoring till daylight, as by keeping over to the Guimarás shore (particularly in the N.E. monsoon) they will find no anchorage and will lose ground.

It is necessary to follow the above instructions carefully, because the Otong Bank extends more to the west and south-west than is shown on the present published chart, and is yearly increasing, and also because the tide runs very strongly on both sides of it. With the flood tide (against the N.E. monsoon), vessels can easily work up in short tacks under the Guimarás shore.

The Otong Bank is 8 miles in length N.E. and S.W., by 2 miles N.W. by W. and S.E. by E. at its broadest part. It is of fine sand, with depths varying from to 3 fathoms. T edges in some places are steep, and in others shoal gradually. To avoid this dager, vessels should after closing Guimarás, keep that shore on board, and be car. ful in beating up not to close the Panay side to less than four fathoms, and not to stand further from the Guimarás shore than half-a-mile, until Poin Cabalig bears S. by W. 1⁄2 W. 23 miles, when they should stand across and open the port of Iloilo clear of Point Bondolan which kept open will clear the Guimarás Bank lying between Points Cal-alig and Bondulan. Care should be taken in standing across towards the Otong Bank to tack as soon as the water shoals to 6 fathoms, as the Bang is steep-to. After passing Point Bondulan, the fort should not be brought to the eastward of N.E. by E.

Guimaras Bank, with 11 feet on its shoalest part, extends in a N.E. by E., and S.W. by S. direction a little over a mile, and about three cables east and west, with deep water all round. The S.W. head bears from Point Bondulan N.N.E. § E. 11⁄2 miles. Iloilo fort kept open off Point Bondulan will clear this danger.

　　　ANCHORAGE. The island of Guimarás forms in front of Iloilo a sheltered passage running nearly N. and S. about 2 miles broad, with deep water and good holding ground, except immediately to the eastward of the fort, where the sand is loose. In mid-channel the depth exceeds 20 fathoms. The best anchorage, least exposed to the sweep of the tides, is to bring the Bantay (guard house) off the south point of the river to bear N.W. N., with the fort bearing S.W. W. Here a ship is out of the strongest current, with the advantage that cargo-boats can easily reach her and return.

　　　TO ENTER THE River and Inner PORT OF ILOILO.- Although the land is low at the entrance, the mouth of the river is distinctly seen, being marked by beacons on the port and starboard sides. On entering, keep the port beacon close on board, after passing which and the watch house, steer for the second point on the starboard hand, giving it a berth of forty feet. The cast bank, with 16 feet, should be close to this distance until after the first sharp bend of the creek is passed, and then the port side to the wharf or an. rage. Vessels usually bring up at jetties, about half-a-mile to one mile from the er rauce, and have the advantage, if of moderate size, of discharging and loading at the sts without employing boats. The creek, or rather tidal river, varies in breadth from a quarter to half-a-mile, and reaches beyond the town of Melo, meeting the sea again near Iloilo; and another branch continues as far as Otong.

DEPTH OF WATER.-The depth at the entrance to the river is merely 5 fathoms at low water, but at a short distance within it decreases to 15 feet, and then deepens. The rise of tide being 6 feet, vessels drawing 16 to 18 feet can easily enter and leave; and when, as is proposed, a dredging-machine is employed to clear away the mud which has been allowed to accumulate, vessels of almost any draught will be able to complete their cargo inside. Ships of 1,000 tons register have loaded part cargoes alongside the jetes. The custom is to load to 14 to 15 feet in the river and complete loading outside. TIDES.-It is high water at Iloilo, full and change, at noon; spring rise 6 feet. The stream runs at spring quite 3 to 4 knots through Iloilo. The flood sets to the northward. The ebb tide to the north of Pepitas rocks runs to the eastward, but to the south of these rocks to the westward.

VARIATION OF THE COMPASS.-1 deg. 15 min. E. PORT DUES.-Same as at Manila.

OBSERVATIONS ON THE PASSAGE FROM MANILA AND PORTS TO THE NORTHWARD,

FOR THE USE OF VESSELS BOUND TO ĈEFU, TAKING THEIR PASSAGE THROUGH THE PHILIPPINE Islands.

North-East Monsoon.

It is presumed that captains have in their possession the Admiralty Charts No. 2,577 and sequence, which may be followed as the best yet published, although the positions are possibly not quite accurate.

On leaving Manila pass, if the wind will allow, to the north of Fortune Island, and, if with a leading wind, keep about three miles from the Luzon shore, thus giving Point Santiago (which is shallow and rocky with reefs extending about two miles off it) a sufficient berth; leaving Point Santiago the course for strangers is to the south of Maricaban Island, by which means the Minerva rock is avoided; coasting vessels often pass between Luzon and Maricaban Islands. The course to the north or south of Isla Verde may be taken according to the wind, north preferred. Off the E.N.E. point of the island are some low rocks 3 or 4 cables off shore with deep water close to, these require care at night as do the islands of Los Bacos and the rocks off Point Calapan.

From Point Malabrigo to the islands of the Tres Reyes, there is no danger, allowance of a point or more should be made for the leewardly set of the current; passing these islands, continue between Tablas and Romblow, to the south of Sibuyan, south of the rest of the Gallo and south of Jentololo. The passages to the East of Romblow and Sibuya - ⚫ not been surveyed, and many coral patches are known to exist the positions .ch are not properly defiued. Do not attempt to pass between Jentololo anu Buncanaguay Point (in the English chart Pulanduta) for the

same reason.

1.

>

In

From Jentololo to Malapascua there are no dangers, but allowance must be made for the set of the current, which varies according to the strength of the monsoon. daylight pass either side of Malapascua, but at night to the Eastward giving a berth to the dangerous reef which extends about of a mile off the south point. Pass, if in the night, to the east of Capitancillo, and keep within 3 or 4 miles of the shore, do not run further during the night than Danao, no dependence can be placed upon the light at the entrance of Cebu, the fishermen's torches are much brighter and are easily mistaken for it. In daylight, the light-house is a good guide to the entrance of the port of Cebu, which the liberality of the foreign merchants has well buoyed, so that no possible difficulty exists to prevent a ship entering without assistance; the colour of the water is also a good guide.

Most vessels from Hougkong and Manila bound to Cebu take the passage to the west of Panay and south of Negros, and after passing to the south of Point Bombonon endeavour to beat between Siguigor and it, against the full force of the current; this is a mistake, the best way after passing Point Bombonon is to stand well over to the island of Mindann beating up to Point Sulaban on that island, and from thence shape a course for Bojol, passing to the south of the island of Balcasig, then to the coast of Cebu, where there is mostly a weather current.

Few sea-going captains care to close with the land, yet a little watchfulness when taking the passage through the islands would save much time. The fact that all coasting vessels and coasting steamers use it should count for something.

Accept also the Admiralty Charts as worth something. We frequently hear that such and such a position in the Philippine Islands is incorrectly laid down on the chart, the reason possibly being that it differs from the longitude given by the chronometer of the ship, which chronometer often is not rated from the time it leaves England until the vessel returns. It is strange, but true, that few captains have an artificial horizon and fewer use one. Rating a chronometer, although important, is not one of the problems of an ordinary master's examination.

WEIGHTS AND MEASURES, MONEY.

CHINESE.

WEIGHTS.

Chinese weights are mostly decimal. Although English weights and measures are used to a considerable extent in trade with foreigners, being legalised in Hongkong for that purpose, the following are also recognised by Ordinance 22 of 1844:-

10 li 10 fan

1 li

= 1 fan, or candareen = 1 tsin, or mace

1 leung, or tael = 1 kan, or catty

10 tsin

16 leung

100 kan

= 1 tàm,

or picul

120 kan

= 1 shek, or stone

=

·001 oz. avoir.

·013 oz. avoir.

•135 oz. avoir.

14 oz. avoir.* 1 lb. avoir. 133 lb. avoir. 160 lb. avoir.

The words candareen, mace, tael, catty, picul, are not Chinese.

Almost all commodities, even liquids, are sold by the above weights amongst Chinese.

MEASURES.

English measures are legal, but so are also the following Chinese :-

10 fan = 1 tsün,

10 tsün = 1 chek,

or inch = about 1.41 English inch. = about 14.1 English inch. = 4 yards (nearly).

or foot

10 chek 1 ch'eung or fathom

The Treaty of Tientsin fixes the ch'eung at 141 English inches.

1 li, or mile =

mile English.

10 li = 1 pò, or league = 3 miles English (about).

Land is measured by the mau or acre, equal to about of an Englis acre.

MONEY.

This is almost entirely represented by weights of silver, accounts being kept in leung, tsin, fan, and li (taels, mace, and candareens) as given above. Their values may be taken to be the following:-

1 li

or cash+ = .064d. ord.

or jd.

1 tsin or mace 1 leung or tael

= 6.4. or 6d. = 58. 4d.

1 fan or candareen = .64d. Not one of these weights is represented by any coin, unless we may take the cash to represent the value of a li of silver.

　　　Silver is used uncoined, in ingots or shoes, sometimes called sycee; small sums are paid in what is called broken silver. At the Ports this genera", consists of the fragments of Mexican or Spanish dollars, hammered to pieces by the Shroffs in their process of Chopping. This broken silver is weighed by means of small steel-yards called Li-tang.

　　　Cash may be said to be the only coin of China. The Chinese call them tsin. They are bronze coins, not unlike thin farthings with a square hole in the centre for stringing together. The Hongkong government cash or mils are smal'r, and the hole is round. The value of cash fluctuates much, and is very much a matter of bargain. About 1,100 to a Mexican dollar is an average quotation.

HONGKONG MONEY.

　　　A legal tender in Hongkong consists of Bank notes of one of the chartered banks; Hongkong or Mexican dollars; 20, 10, or 5 cent silver pieces to an amount not exceeding two dollars; or bronze cents or mils to an amount not exceeding one dollar. Spanish and South American dollars are also in circulation, as well as Spanish quarter dollars, American half and quarter dollars, shillings, sixpences, francs, the Japanese silver coinage (identical in value and accepted indifferently with that of Hongkong), and the 10 and 20 cent pieces of the Straits Settlements, which are accepted in the same way.

　　　Four shillings is now (1878) a high average value for a dollar. It has lately seldom been over 38. 101d.

　　　Mexican dollars weighed at 7.1.7. mean coins which contain 7 mace, 1 candareen, and 7 li of silver (see weights given above). Clean coins of this weight command a premium, lighter ones are taken at a discount.

• The Tael actually in use is 1.351 oz.

✦ The li when representing weight is never spoken of as a cash, but probably the original value of a cash was 1 li of pure silver.

WEIGHTS AND MEASURES, MONEY.

　The Hongkong bronze coinage is always more or less at a discount, which has sometimes been as high as 30 per cent. in the case of cents, and 50 per cent. in the case of cash. Servants avail themselves of this discount to make a profit whenever they are entrusted with silver for purchasing anything that can be paid for in copper.

REIGNING SOVEREIGN AND FAMILY.

Kwang Sü, Emperor of China, is the son of Prince Ch'un, the seventh son of the Emperor Tao Kwang, hence he is cousin to the late Emperor Tung Chi, who died without issue on the 12th day of January, 1875, from small-pox.

The proclamation announcing the accession of the present sovereign was as ollows:-"Whereas His Majesty the Emperor ha ascended upon the Dragon to be guest on high, without offspring born to his inheritance, no course has been open out that of causing Tsai-Tien, son of the Prince of Ch'un, to become adopted as the on of the Emperor Wêng Tsung Hien (Hien Fung) and to enter upon the inheritance of the great dynastic line as Emperor by succession. Therefore, let Tsai-Tien, son of lih Hwan, the Prince of Ch'un, become adopted as the son of the Emperor Wên 'sung Hien, and enter upon the inheritance of the great dynastic line as Emperor by uccession."

　　　　The present sovereign is the ninth Emperor of China of the Tartar dynasty of a-tsing, "The Sublimely Pure," which succeeded the native dynasty of Ming in the ear 1644. There exists no law of hereditary succession to the throne, but it is left > each sovereign to appoint his successor from aruong the members of his family. 'he late Emperor, dying suddenly, in the eighteenth year of his age, did not designate successor, and it was in consequence of a palace intrigue, directed by the Empress Jowager, widow of the Emperor Hien Fung, predecessor of Tung Chi, in concert with rince Ch'un, that the infant son of the latter was made the nominal occupant of le throne.

GOVERNMENT AND REVENUE.

The fundamental laws of the empire are laid down in the Ta-tsing-hwei-tien, or Collected Regulations of the Great Pure dynasty," which prescribe the government the State to be based upon the government of the family. The Emperor is iritual as well as temporal sovereign, and, as high priest of the empire, can alone, ith his immediate representatives and ministers, perform the great religious cere- onies. No ecclesiastical hierarchy is maintained at the public expense, nor any iesthood attached to the Confucian or State religion.

The administration of the empire is under the supreme direction of the "Interior uncil Chamber," comprising four members, two of Tartar and two of Chinese igin, besides two assistants from the Han-lin, or Great College, who have to see that thing is done contrary to the civil and religious laws of the empire, contained in the -tsing-hwei-tien, and in the sacred books of Confucius. These members are nominated "Ta-hyo-si," or Ministers of State. Under their orders are the Li-poo, six boards of government, each of which is presided over by a Tartar and a Chinese. ey are:-1. The board of civil appointment, which takes cognisance of the conduct d administration of all civil officers; 2. The board of revenues, regulating all ancial affairs; 3. The board of rites and ceremonies, which enforces the laws and stoms to be observed by the people; 4. The military board, superintending the ministration of the army; 5. The board of public works; and 6. The high tribunal criminal jurisdiction.

Independent of the Government and theoretically above the central administra- n, is the Tu-chah-yuen, or board of public censors. It consists of from 40 to 50

members, under two presidents, the one of Tartar and the other of Chinese birth' By the ancient custom of the empire, all the members of this board are privileged to present any remonstrance to the sovereign. One censor must be present at the meetings of each of the six government boards.

The estimates of the public revenue of China vary greatly, and while they are stated by some to exceed 100 millions sterling, are held by others not to come up to half that amount. Official returns of the Chinese Government, published in 1844, stated the annual revenue at that time at Tls. 191,804,139, or £63,934,713. From missionary reports, as well as the accounts published in the Peking Gazette, it would appear that there are almost constant deficits, which the governors and high officers of provinces must cover by extraordinary taxation.

The public revenue is mainly derived from three sources, namely, customs duties, licenses, and a tax upon land, but the receipts from customs alone are made known. According to the returns published by the government, the total receipts from customs were as follows in each of the thirteen years from 1865 to 1877 :-

China had no foreign debt till the end of 1874. It was announced on December 30th, 1874, that the Government had contracted a loan of £627,675, bearing 8 per cent. interest. The loan was issued at 95 per cent. through the Hongkong and Shanghai Bank, under Imperial authority and secured by the customs' revenue. Two other loans, one in 1877 and one in 1878, have since been issued by the same Bank under authority of the Chinese Government.

Population, Trade, and Industry.

The population of China is very deuse in some provinces, but of the number of inhabitants an approximate idea only can be formed, although official enumeration of the same are stated to have taken place at intervals since the year 703, or for more then eleven centuries. According to the most reliable estimates obtainable, based upon Chinese official returns, the area of the empire and its dependencies, embraces 186,887 geographical, or 3,924,627 English square miles, with a population in round numbers of some four hundred and twenty-four millions, distributed as follows:-

the Imperial government can rely, form-the so-called troops of the Eight Banners, and garrison all the great cities, but so as to be separatad by walls and forts from the population. According to the latest reports, the Imperial army comprises a total of 850,000 men, including 678 companies of Tartar troops, 211 companies of Mongols and native Chinese infantry, a kind of militia, numbering 120,000 men. The native soldiers do not live in barracks, but in their own houses, mostly pursuing some civil occupation.

　　　　　China proper, extending over 73,093 geographical, or 1,534,953 English square miles, is divided into eighteen provinces, the area and population of which are given as follows in the most recent estimates, partly based on official returns :-

The above population, giving 263 souls per square mile throughout China proper, appears to be excessive, considering that some of the outlying portions of the immense territory are by no means densely inhabite 1. Nevertheless, other returns than those of the above tables, said to be official, give still bi her figures. It is stated that in a census taken in 1842 the population of China was ascertained to number 414,686,994, or 320 per English square mile, and that in 1852 it had risen to 450,000,000, or 347 inhabitants per square mile. But there is, probably, less accuracy in the given results of the latter enumerations than in the preceding estimate, as the power and authority of the government have been on the decline for more than half a century, and disturbed by constant insurrections, mostly spreading over large portions of the empire.

According to a return of the Imperial customs authorities, the total number of foreigners in China was 3,817 at the end of 1877. Among them were 1,851 natives of Great Britain and Ireland, 383 of the United States; 353 of Germany, and 176 of France, all other nationalities being represented by very few members. More than one-half of the total number of foreigners resided at Shangbai, the remainder being scattered over the other ports open to foreign commerce.

　　　　　　Great Britain has, in virtue of various treaties with the Chinese Government- the first and most important signed August 29th, 1842-the right of access to twenty- five ports of the Empire, in addition to the colony of Hongkong, geographically a part of China. The ports known as Treaty ports, are Canton, Hoihow (in Hainan), Pakhoi, Swatow, Amoy, Foochow, Wenchow, Ningpo, Shanghai, Chinkiang, Wuhu, Kiukiang, Hankow, Ichang, Chefoo, Tientsio, and Newchwang.

of the Chefoo Convention, permission is also accorded to British merchants to trade at Chungking-fu and Yunnan-fu, at which places British Consular Residents will reside. The import trade from Great Britain centres, exclusive of Hongkong, at Shanghai, Hankow, and Tientsin, while the bulk of the exports to Great Britain pass through the ports of Shanghai, Foochow, Hankow, and Canton.

Of the total value of the imports and exports to foreign countries for 1877-; Tls. 140,698,192-Tls. 115,606,693 must be credited to Great Britain and her colonies, including India.

Among the exports tea and silk take the first places. In 1877 the export of tea amounted to 1,909,088 piculs, of which 1,389,614 piculs went to Great Britain and British possessions.

Manufactured Cotton and Woollen Goods and Opium constitute the bulk of the imports of foreign produce into China. The value of Cotton Goods imported in 1877 was Tls. 18,955,795; that of Woollen Goods, Tls. 4,830,583; and of Miscellaneous Piere Goods, Tls. 128,630. Most of these goods come from British looms. The value of the Opium imported in 1877 was Tls. 30,273,577.

China is traversed in all directions by 20,000 so-called roads, but they are usually mere tracks or at best footpaths. A vast internal trade is, however, carried on over them, and by means of numerous canals and navigable rivers. The most populous part of China is singularly well adapted for the construction of a network of railways, and a first attempt to introduce them into the country was made in 1876, when a line from Shanghai to Woosung, ten miles in length, was constructed by an English Company. The little railway was subsequently purchased by the Chinese Goveru. ment and closed by them on the 21st October, 1877, when the rails were taken up and the line with rolling stock shipped to Formosa.

JAPAN.

CONSTITUTION AND GOVERNMENT.

The system of government of the Japanese Empire is that of an absolute monarchy. It was adopted in the year 1869, when the now ruling sovereign overthrew, after a short war, the power of the formerly independent Daiu ios, or feudal nobles, reducing them to the position of simple tenants of the vast estates in their hereditary posses- sions. The sovereign bears the name of Supreme Lord, or Emperor; but the appella- tion by which he is generally known in foreign countries is the ancient title of Mikado, or. "The Venerable."

""

Mikado of Japan.-Mutsu-hito, born at Tokio, September 22nd, 1852; succeeded his father, Komei Tenno, 1867; married December 28th, 1868, to Princess Haru-ko, born April 17th, 1850, daughter of Prince Itchidge. The reigning Emperor is the 123rd of an unbroken Dynasty, which was founded 660 B.C.

The power of the Mikado is alsolute and unlimited, in temporal as well as spiritual affairs. He acts through an executive ministry, divided, in imitation of that of France under Napoleon III., into eight departinents, of the Imperial House, of Foreign Affairs, War, Navy, Finances and the Interior, Justice, Public Instruction, and Ecclesiastical Affairs. At the side of the Ministry stands the "Sain," or Senate, composed of thirty members, and the "Shoin," or Council of State, of an unlimited number of members, both nominated by the Mikado, and consulted by him at his pleasure.

　　　There exists no regular law of succession to the throne, but in case of the death or abdication of the Mikado, the crown devolves generally, not on his son, but on either the eldest or the most distinguished member of his house, It is not uncommon that palace intrigues settle the choice, the only condition of legality of which is that the elect should be member of the Shi Shinno, the "Four Imperial Relatives," Royal Families of Japan. The throne can be, and has frequently been, occupied by a female, who, however, is not allowed to remain single, but must seek a consort within the limits of the Shi Shinno.

The Government is at present organised on a basis which is partly European. The Mikado is, theoretically, an absolute Sovereign, who reigns and governs; but the work of government is carried on by the Great Council, which is divided into three sections denominated Centre, Right, and Left. The Centre is composed of the Prime Minister, Vice-Prime Minister, and five advisers. The Left is made up exclusively of the Council of State, the functions of which are analogous to those of the French Conseil d'Etat, so far as the preparation and discussion of laws is concerned. The Right includes all the Ministers and Vice-Ministers of the eight departments into which the administration is divided. The Ministers, either individually or united in a Cabinet, decide all ordinary questions; but points of al importance are reserved for the Great Council, presided over by the Mikado. A Parliament was formed in 1869, with deputies selected by the provincial Governments, but it was soon dissolved, its deliberations taking no effect. The local administration in the provinces is in the hands of prefects, one of them residing in each of the 75 districts into which Japan is divided. The powers and the attributes of these prefects are far more extensive than those of any similar functionaries in Europe. There is, however, a limit to their judicial action, for they cannot carry into execution sentences involving banishment or death until they have been confirmed by the Minister of Justice.

　　　Previous to the last change of government, which placed all power in the bands of the Mikado, a large share of administrative authority rested with the Daimios, the feudal proprietors of the soil, an official list of whose names was published periodically at Tokio. The list gave the family name and genealogy of each, as well as the fullest particulars of his family, the number of his residences, and extent and value of his territorial and other property, the uniform of his retainers, the design of his coat of arms, and the flag carried on his ships. A list of Daimios, published at Tokio in 1862, stated their number at 266, with incomes varying from 10,000 to 610,500-

koban, or from about £15,000 to £915,500. The territory of each Daimio formed a sovereignty within itself, governed, in the case of the more powerful magnates, by a Secretary of State, called Karô, and a number of assistant ministers, and many of them were possessed of large bodies of troops. All these, with their fortified castles, and every attribute of authority, the Daimios surrendered, after more or less resistance, to the bereditary Emperor.

The armed force of Japan is composed, since 1869, of a single element, the troops kept by the Mikado, who constitute the Imperial army. By a decree of the Mikado, dated December 28th, 1872, the liability to arms is made universal, but it was reported in 1877 that this order had not found execution. At present the Imperial army, under the command of the Mikado, is not large. When on a peace footing there are 34,768 men comprising all arms, and on a war footing 49,378 men, giving a ratio of the army on a peace footing to the total population of 1,000 to 1,000,000. The army has been organized on the French system by officers specially selected by the French Government.

The navy of Japan consisted at the end June, 1877, of one ironclad frigate; two ironclad corvettes: two wooden corvettes; three schooners; one gunboat; one transport, and one yacht. The largest of these ships, the ironclad frigate Foo-800, was built by Messrs. Samuda, Brothers, at Poplar, London, and launched April 14th, 1877. The Foo-800 has a burthen of 3,700 tons displacement, with engines of 3,500 horse-power. The armour is from 7 inches to 9 inches in thickness, while the armament consists of four 15 ton and two 5-ton steel breechloaders by Krupp, so arranged as to command every point of the horizon. The second largest ship of the navy is an ironclad corvette, called the Kon-go, constructed at Earl's shipbuilding yard, Hull, after the design of Mr. Edw. J. Reed, and launched April 17th, 1877. The Kon-go has a burthen of 2,800 tons displacement, with engines of 2,500 horse-power, and has a belt of armour 44 inches thick. The armament consists of 12 Krupp guns, capable of throwing steel shells of 142 pounds. The Hi-yei is a sister ship to the Kon-go, and was launched in 1878. The navy is manned by 1,200 sailors, including 67 artillerymen, and 260 marines. Naval instruction is given to the per- sonnel of the Japanese navy by eight commissioned and twenty-three non-commissioned English officers, who arrived in the country in 1873.

POPULATION, TRADE, AND INDUSTRY.

""

　　　　The total area of Japan is estimated at 156,604 square miles, with a population of 33,298,286, namely, 16,890,560 males, and 16,407,726 females, according to official reports of the year 1877. The empire is geographically divided into the four islands of Honde, the central and most important territory; Kiushiu, "the nine provinces,' the south-western island; Sikoku, "the four states," the southern island; and Yesso, the most northerly and least developed. Admi..istratively, there exists a division into seven large districts, called "Do," or roads, which are subdivided into twenty- five provinces.

Education is very general in Japan, and is making greater progress than before the revolution which made Japan a monarchy. In 1871, the Mikado

appointed a Board of Public Instruction, which is reported to be very active. The number of elementary schools in 1877 was 24,225, of which 21,988 were public schools and 2,237 private schools. Of Middle Schools there are 11 public and 105 private establishments. There are 90 Normal Schools; and Colleges for special studies, such as Law, Medicine, Mining, Agriculture, and Foreign Languages, have been established, and are carefully fostered by the Government. In order to facilitate the acquirement of foreign languages, the Government of the Mikado engaged many European pro- fessors, and also sert, at the public expense, a large nun.ber of students to America and Europe.

　The two staple articles of import into Japan, in the year 1877, were cotton and woollen fabrics, the former of the value of $8,344,531, and the latter of the value of $4,075,155; the value of mixed cotton and woollen goods was $1,302,923. The two staple articles of export in the year 1877 were raw silk, of the value of $9,643,556, and tea, of the value of $4,409,320.

　The commercial intercourse of Japan is carried on mainly with two countries, namely, Great Britain and the United States of America, the former absorbing more than two-thirds of the whole.

　By treaties made with a number of foreign Governments-with the United States in March, 1854; with Great Britain in October, 1854; with Russia and the Netherlands in 1855; with Frauce, in 1859; with Portugal, in 1860; with Prussia, and Zollve- rein, in 1861; with Switzerland, in 1864; with Itly, in 1866; and with Denmark, in 1867-the Japanese ports of Kanagawa, Nagasaki, Hiogo-Osaka, Hakodate, Niigata, and the capital city of Tokio (formerly called Yedo) were thrown open to foreign

commerce.

　The first line of railway, from Yokohama to Tokio, 18 miles long, was opened for traffic on the 12th of June, 1872; a line has also been opened from Hiogo to Osaka, was subsequently extended to the city of Kioto, and is now being continued to Lake Biwa and the west coast of Japan.

　The ports of Hiogo, Osaka, Nagasaki, and Hakodate are connected with each other, and with Europe, by lines of telegraphs, and the telegraph system has lately been extended to all the principal towns of the Empire.

4. These Stamps are not available at Rian offices out of China. 5.-British Postage Stamps are not sola the offic a pained above, nor are they available except for the correspondence of officers and seven of l'er Majesty's fleet.

　　6. Postage must be prepaid in Stamps, not in oney. The Stamps must be whole, clean, and placed on the address side of the letter. No refund will be made of any extra charge resulting from stamps placed on the seal side being overlooked. Stamps should be carefully affixed so as not to fall off, as they sometimes do.

　　7.-Postmasters and Agents are allowed (but not required) to purchase Hongkong Postage Stamps from foreign residents.

　　8.-The Stamps tendered for sale must not exceed 350 in value, must be perfectly clean, and in good condition. They must be presented persally or accompanied by a note.

9.-The Postmaster or Agent may postpone purchesing if his public funds in hand are not sufficient, and he will refuse to purchase in any case which appears doubtful or suspicious. He is allowed to charge a commission of 8 per cent. on all stamps purchased.

10.-Letters containing Stamps should be Registered, and the stamps should be secured from observation.

11.-Boxholders (but boxholders only) are at liberty to mark their Postage Stamps on the back or face, or by perforation, so a to prevent their being stolen. If the mark be on the face, it must be such as not to interfere with the c'ean appearance of the stamp.

12.-Postage Stamps are sold for ceek* oul. Correspondence will not be stamped at the Post Office and charged to a boxholder's acco› it, except as provided by the local Postage Regula- tions (see paragraph 103).

　　13.-The shroffs who sell stamps are not allowed to affix them, even if requested to do so. This must be done by the purchaser.

　　14.-Specimen Stamps cannot be supplied to the public except on receipt of their full value, which is as follows:-

Complete set of ordinary Stamps, including obɛolete values..... Complete do. high value...

$ 3 38 or 14/1. 15.00 62/6.

J1

$18.38 or 76/7.

The officers of the Post Office cannot undertake to collect obliterated Postage Stamps.

15.-All persons are recommended to keep Postage Stamps under lock and key, and in posting large quantities of correspondence to send it in a box carefully sealed. The safest plan is to seal on the wood itself without tape or string. The old wax should be removed before more is applied. Locked boxes cannot be allowed. The best way to deal with Postage Stamps that have got stuck together is to steam them for a few minutes, separate them gently, and dry them on blotting paper in the sun.

　　16.-A receipt book should be sent with each box, but as the receiving officer cannot under- take to count the correspondence sent, he only gives a receipt for One Bor. Loose receipts give much extra trouble, and are not recommended. The back leaves of the Receipt Book should be

fastened down, as coolies not infrequently waste some minutes in endeavours to find the face. The Post Office will not give a receipt for the amount of Stamps put on any corresponce, nor undertake to see that servants affix the correct amount, nor receive unstamped pondence in covers with the money enclosed. There is no objection to receipting a chipbook for the correspondence of a non-boxholder if brought to the proper window, but is particularly requested that chit-books in cases or bags be not sent.

Private Boxes.

17.-Private Boxes may be rented in the offices at Hongkong and Shanghai. The fee is $10 a year payable in advance. This is a Government fee, and does not, as commonly supposed, go to the Postmasters.

18.-Each boxholder is supplied with an account book free, but must himself provide at least two stout bags (Shanghai firms require four) marked with his name in English and Chinese. Boxholders should insist on their coolies returning these bags to the Post Office as soon as emptied, or at any rate not later than next morning.

19. Each boxholder's coolie must be provided with a stout ticket or badge of wood, metal, or pasteboard, bearing his employer's name in English and Chinese. This will enable him to obtain letters whenever a mail arrives.

20.-The advantages of renting a box are many. It secures a quicker and more accurate delivery of correspondence. Unpaid letters are delivered to boxholders without the delay of demanding payment, change, &c., as they are charged to his account. The boxholders of Hong- kong and Shanghai send bags down in the mail steamer to be filled by the marine sorter. Box- holders are allowed to post their letters in sealed covers or boxes, and to mark their Postage Stamps (see paragraph 11). They receive free copies of all notices issued by the Post Office, tables of rates, &c. Many inconveniences are saved to them by the facility for charging their accounts with small deficiencies of postage, when there is no time to return a short-paid letter. This, however, is only done as an exception, when the letter cannot go on unpaid, no boxholder being allowed to make a practice of sending short-paid correspondence, or letters to be stamped (see paragraph 12). Boxholders are also allowed certain privileges as to posting local corres- pondence unstamped (see paragraph 103).

21.-As a general rule, requests to keep the letters of one individual out of the box of the firm to which he belongs or belonged cannot be complied with so long as his letters are directed to that firm. Otherwise the whole correspondence of that firm would be subject to delay. The same rule applies to complimentary boxes, which are set apart to facilitate the delivery of letters to a whole set of addressees, whose correspondence should not be delayed for the convenience of one person.

22.-Boxholders' books are sent out for settlement on the first day of each month, and should be returned promptly. In case of any book not being returned within seven days, the boxholder is liable to be supplied and charged with a new one, the old one being destroyed on its

return.

23.-A box cannot be jointly rented by two or more persons or firms.

Requests for Re-direction.

24.-Requests for the re-direction of correspondence, or to have it stopped in Hongkong, should be in writing. The precise address of the correspondence must be given. It is useless to give such vague addresses as "letters addressed to me at Hongkong or elsewhere." Requests should also state whether private letters or those for the writer's firm are required.

25.-The business of the Post Office is to deliver correspondence as directed. All detentions and diversions of it, therefore, must be looked upon as mattera of favour, to be granted only when the business of the department allows of it, and when there has been time to communicate with the marine sorter, &c. Telegrams must be paid for by applicants. Requests of a com- plicated nature cannot be entertained. Correspondence directed to care of boxholders in Hong- kong must, without exception, be delivered as addressed (see paragraph 21). Every request is understood to refer to letters only, unless papers be specifically mentioned. There is no charge for re-direction of paid Union correspondence to Union Countries. The marine sorter is not allowed to deliver correspondence at Singapore. Letters for a firm will not be intercepted without the written authority of that firm. Intercepted correspondence can never be delivered until at least two hours after the local delivery. As a general rule, whatever can be done by a friend outside will not be done in the Post Office.

26.-No request is acted on for more than three months, at the end of which time the correspondence resumes its usual course.

27.-Persons visiting Hongkong, Shanghai, &c., for a few weeks, and intercepting their correspondence there, should, before leaving, cancel their request, or it will continue in force, thus subjecting the correspondence to delay.

Prepayment. Forwarding.

28.-There are uniform Rates of Postage to all countries of the Postal Union, by whatever route, but with certain exceptions given below. No extra charges can be made on delivery. No

Postal cards have been issued by the Hongkong office, but there is no objection to the use of any recognised Postal card, if sufficient Hongkong Stamps be affixed to prepay it at half lette· rate. No allowance can be made for the original postal value of the card.

29.-A list of the countries of the Postal Union is printed on the Table of Rates of Postage, to be had at the Post Offices and Agencies free. They may be said to be Europe, the United States, Canada, Newfoundland, Brazil, Peru, India, Japan, most Asiatic and British W. African Colonies, Egypt, Labuan, Mauritius, Seychelles, Jamaica, Trinidad, Guiana, Bermuda, with all French, Spanish, Portuguese, Danish, and Netherlands Colonies.

32.-Official Letters may be sent unpaid to certain public offices in London, as to which further information may be had on application. Official Unpaid Letters are sent via Southampton unless otherwise directed. Official Unpaid Books are charged as letters.

33.-All other correspondence is sent on by the first opportunity unless especially directed or apparently prepaid for some particular route. As a general rule the office is cleared for the first steamer going, the responsibility not being taken of deciding that a subsequent packet will arrive sooner. Correspondence marked for any particular steamer is sent by her,t unless her departure be postponed sine die, in which case it would be sent by the next opportunity. Firms at Swatow, Amoy, or Foochow should prepay their correspondence for the Brindisi route when there is a chance that the Coast mail may fail to catch the French Packet. Such correspondence goes on by first opportunity if marked By first mail, but not otherwise. If it is possible to overtake the French packet by a direct private steamer to Singapore it is done. No late fee is ever charged on Coast correspondence under any circumstances, the Late Fee being wholly confined to that originating in Hongkong. The direction Vid Marseilles should now be discontinued and the words, By French Packet used instead.

Unpaid and Loose Letters.

34.-As a general rule, unpaid correspondence from other Post Offices bears the mark T. (Tax to pay). Unpaid Newspapers and Postal Cards are not forwarded, but destroyed. Unpaid Books and Patterns are charged at Letter Rates, which are as follows:-

Viâ London and Brindisi.......... By any other route.

22 cents per ✈ oz. 18 cents per § oz.

the value of the Postage Stamps, if any, being deducted. The values of foreign Stamps are not, however, allowed when the despatching office has omitted to mark them in francs and centimes, or in pence. Persons receiving unpaid letters which they suppose to be wrongly charged, should pay the postage, and keep the cover for the purpose of obtaining a refund (see paragraph 2). To keep or open the letter, whilst refusing to pay the postage, is a course open to many objections. No letter can be treated as Refused if it has been opened.

• First opportunity is not taken to mean by sailing ship, as nothing is sent by sailing ship but what is specially marked to be so sent, or in case there is little chance of a steamer.

　　　　　In the case of Tea steamers leaving Foochow and Hankow for London, the Postal Agents have instructions to send on all letters for ports of call or the United Kingdom, either direct, or to catch the weekly Brindisi mail at Suez, accord- ing to the prepayment (12 or 16 cents), but to keep all other correspondence for the Contract mails. Correspondence is not forwarded from Hongkong to London or the Continent via San Francisco, as there is no advantage in so forward- ing it.

HONGKONG POSTAL GUIDE.

35.-Letters arriving loose on board ship (i.e. not in the Mails) are treated as unpaid no credit being given for any foreign Postage Stamps they may bear. Such Stamps are obliterated. As a general rule, a loose letter may be distinguished by its bearing only one Postmark, viz, that of the office of delivery, and this on the address side, not on the seal side. Consignees' letters, being privileged by law, need not be sent to the Post Office at all, but if they are sent they are liable to ordinary rates of postage, except that those arriving from other ports, and being duly marked Consignee's letter are charged only local rates for delivery.

36.-Figures marked on any correspondence in Red merely denote what has been paid, and therefore nothing more should ever be paid on account of such figures.

37. But figures in black, or blue, denote postage to pay. These are generally in pence and must be doubled to be put into cents. Thus a red 4 indicates eight cents paid, and the addressee has nothing to pay, but a blue or black 4 means that there is four pence (eight cents) yet to pay. Dimensions. Weights. Contents.

38.-No articles of correspondence, unless to or from a Government office, must exceed the following measurement:-2 feet long, 1 foot wide, 1 foot deep. There is no limit to the weight of letters, but the weights of other articles (except Government office) are limited as follows:-

To British Offices.

To other Offices.

Books or Papers.... Patterns

•

...5th.

.stb...

.2lb.

...8oz.

39.-No letter or packet, whether to be registered or unregistered, can be received for Postage if it contains gold and silver money, jewels, precious articles, or anything that, as a general rule, is liable to Customs duties. This Regulation prohibits the sending of Patterns of dutiable articles, unless the quantity sent be so small as to make the sample of no value.

40.-The following articles cannot be sent by post at all: glass, liquids, gunpowder, matches, indigo, dye-stuffs, or whatever is dangerous to the mails, or offensive or injurious to persons dealing with them. Sugar, soap, and candles may be sent in flat tins, as to which see note to paragraph 71.

Prepayment. Letters.

41.-In weighing letters it is better to leave a little margin, or add postage for the next half-ounce, as scales are apt not to be quite exact, and if the true weight be exceeded to the smallest extent the letter is treated as short-paid.

42.-Letter scales are very apt to get out of order, and the derangement almost always leads to their allowing too much weight in letters rather than too little. It is, however, easy both to test and to adjust them. Equal weights being placed in either scale, say half an ounce in each, the balance should be exactly even (each scale hanging free) and should turn with a bit of paper about the size of two postage stamps, otherwise it is wanting in sensibility. If not true, some of the metal should be scraped or filed from the pau on the heavier side until the balance is perfectly accurate. If this has to be done often, however, the scales should be replaced with

new ones.

43.-A short-paid letter, directed for a route by which prepayment is compulsory, is returned to the writer (being opened, if necessary, for that purpose) unless there is some other route by which it can be sent. It is not undertaken that such letters will be returned in time to be reposted for the mail. If the writer cannot be found, the letter is advertised as detained for postage and a notice sent to the addressee.

Soldiers' and Sailors' Letters.

44.-Privates in H.M. Army or Navy, Non-commissioned Officers,* Army Schoolmasters (not Superintending or first class) or Schoolmistresses may send half-ounce letters to the United Kingdom via Southampton for one penny, or via Brindisi for three-pence. Hongkong stamps will prepay this class of correspondence exactly the same as Imperial Stamps.

45.-Soldiers' and Sailors' Letters are, however, charged as Ordinary` Letters if they do not conform to the following regulations :---

1.-Not to exceed half an ounce. No double letters are allowed.

2.-If from a soldier or sailor, his class or description must be stated in full on the letter, and the commanding officer must sign his name, with name of regiment, or ship, &c., in full.

3.-If to a soldier or sailor, his class or description must be stated in full, with name of

regiment, or ship, &c., in full.

Registration.

46.-Every description of correspondence may be registered, except such as is addressed to initials or fictitious names, or is not properly fastened and secured. The general rate is 8 cents, though to some countries 12 cents is charged (see Table of Rates). No unpaid or short-paid correspondence can be registered except official letters.

47.-Letters to be registered should not be dropped into the box, but should be handed to the receiving officer and a receipt obtained. The hour of registry will be marked on the receipt

• But not warrant officera, viz., assistant engineer, gunner, boatswain, or carpenter.

　　　if specially requested. Merchants or bankers who have several letters to register at once are requested to send a list of the addresses in duplicate, one copy of which is at once signed by the registry clerk as a receipt.

　　　　　48.-Registration cannot be carried on up to the very moment of closing the mail. The time fixed for its cessation varies from five minutes up to an hour before that time. Letters for registration should be presented in good time, and, except when it is necessary, persons should avoid presenting correspondence for registry by next mail whilst the officers of the Post Office are busy in closing that one actually going (see paragraphs 98 and 99).

49.-All letters addressed to the United Kingdom or to any port in China, and marked Registered, but dropped into the box, are liable to compulsory registration. That is to say, they are registered and a double fee is charged on delivery.

　　　　　50.-Registered letters must not be looked upon as insured. No compensation would be paid in case of their loss, whether accidental or otherwise.

　　　　　51.-A moment's reflection will shew that, if an ordinary letter or packet be once lost, there is almost no chance of its being traced. A registered letter, however, is practically beyond risk of loss (except from casualty) and may be looked on as absolutely safe. To register all valuable letters is not only a wise but is also a cheap precaution.

　　　　　52. It is particularly recommended that packets of photographs, collections of postage stamps, &c., be registered. These objects often have not only a high intrinsic value, but also it may be impossible to replace them. They offer temptations to theft, and photographs frequently attract attention from the way in which they are packed. It is not judicious to risk some guineas' worth of works of art for the sake of a 4d. registration fee.

Newspapers.

　　　　　53.-A newspaper must not exceed four ounces in weight, or it is liable to an additional rate of postage. It may be prepaid as a book at the option of the sender. The union rate of postage is 2 cents each, or 4 cents exceptional (see paragraph 30).

　　　　　54.-A bundle of newspapers may be prepaid at so much each (and each one must count, however small) or the whole may be paid at book rate.

　　　　　55.-Two newspapers must not be folded together as one, nor must anything whatever be inserted except bona fide supplements of the same paper, and same date. Printed matter may, however, be enclosed if the whole be paid at book rate.

56.-A supplement must consist of matter generally similar to that of the newspaper, be published with it, and have the title and date of the paper at the top of each page. 57.-Scarves, gloves, presents, &c., are sometimes enclosed in newspapers.

The public should understand that this is dishonest. When such articles are discovered in a newspaper or book, if it can be sent on unpaid it is charged as an unpaid letter (postage and fine often amount- ing to 30s. or 408.) otherwise the goods are confiscated.

58-A newspaper must be open at the ends. If it contain any written communication whatever it will be charged as a letter. It should be folded with the title outwards, and the cover should be arranged so as to slip off easily. The common practice of securing it with the stamp is open to objection. The direction should be written on the paper itself, as well as on the cover, in case of the loss of the latter.

59.-Much delay and trouble are frequently caused by piles of newspapers or circulars being posted all stuck together, on account of the careless gumming of the covers. Not only is time and care required to separate them, but it generally happens that the stamps adhere to the wet gum on the back of each cover, rather than to their proper places, thus getting lost, and occasioning much confusion.

Prices Current and Circulars.

　　　　　60.-A price current or circular may be paid as a newspaper or as a book. A bundle of prices current or circulars may be paid as so many newspapers (each one counting) or the whole may be paid at book rate. The Union rate of postage is 2 cents each, or 4 cents exceptional (see paragraph 30).

61.-The plan of sending circulars, &c., in envelopes with the flaps folded inwards is open to objection and gives much trouble, as such envelopes are hardly distinguishable from letters. The same applies to envelopes with small portions of the ends or corners cut open. These are generally cut wholly open by the examining officers, and the contents arc, in consequence, in some danger of falling out. (See also paragraph 59).

62.-During the last few hours of closing the mails for Europe, large masses of circulars should not be posted for other steamers. Circulars and Prices Current should not be sent to the Post Office mixed up with letters or newspapers, but in bundles, with the addresses all one way. Books and Patterns.

　　　　　63.-Books and patterns are charged at so much per two ounces. The Union rate is 4 cents, or 6 cents exceptional (sce paragraph 30).

　　　　　64--The term books includes all kinds of literary matter, with whatever is necessary for its illustration or safe transmission, as maps, rollers, binding, &c., but a book must contain no communication whatever of the nature of a letter.

65.-A book may, however, contain an inscription presenting it, notes or marks referring to the text, or such writing as With the author's compliments, &c.

HONGKONG POSTAL GUIDE.

66.-Legal and commercial documents (papiers d'affaires), printers' copy, authors manu- scripts, and diaries intended for publication or circulation are eligible for transmission as books, but not letters in diary form. Proofs or corrected proofs are also allowed and, generally, any papers not having the character of an actual and personal correspondence.

67.-A Postmaster may open any book packet, and it is his duty to open a certain number by every mail. What becomes of books into which presents, &c., have been inserted may be learnt from paragraph 57. The packet must be open at the ends, and the contents visible, or easily to be rendered visible.

68.-It is absolutely necessary that the wrappers of books sent through the post be stout and well fastened. Otherwise the books will probably never reach the addressees. No hand- somely bound book should be sent through the post, (unless its being spoiled is of no consequence) except protected by stout wooden boards, larger than the book itself, and firmly tied with strong string. Books to the value of $1 and upwards, when addressed to the United States, are gene- rally liable to Customs duties.

69.-There is no such thing as Parcel Post to Europe, &c. Much trouble and disappointment are caused by persistent attempts to send small valuable trifles through the post otherwise than in Letters. Fans, curios, articles of dress, fancy work, and similar presents are continually being re- fused, the senders having often spent more in postage than would have paid the freight by steamer. Letters containing presents should always be registered. Presents weighing over 7 or 8 ounces are best sent through a parcel agency *. No refund can be made on such parcels of the value of stamps obliterated before the nature of the contents was discovered (see also paragraph 39).

70.-Some difficulty is experienced in obtaining a general understanding of what is a pattern. It is a bona fide sample of goods which the sender has for sale, or of goods which he wishes to order. It is to consist of the smallest possible quantity compatible with shewing what the goods are, and must have no intrinsic value.

71.-Pattern packets must be open at the ends. As to opening them see paragraph 67. Tea, sceds, drugs, &c., may be sent in boxest, or in transparent bags. There must be no writing or printing on or in the packet except addresses, trade marks, numbers, and prices. For a list of forbidden articles see paragraph 40; for weight, dimensions, &c., paragraphs 38 and 39.

Local Parcel Post.

72.-The following are the rules as to Local Parcel Post:-

1.-Small Parcels may be sent by Post between any of the British Post Offices in China or Japan, as well as to Macao, Pakhoi, Singapore, Penang, and Malacca. They must not exceed the following dimensions, 2 feet long, 1 foot broad, 1 foct deep, nor weigh more than 5lbs. The postage will be 20 cents per lb., which will include Registration. The parcels may be wholly closed if they bear this special endorse- ment, Parcel, containing no letter, but any parcel may be opened by direction of the Postmaster General.

2.-The following cannot be transmitted: Parcels insufficiently packed or protected, or liable to be crushed (as bandboxes, &c.) Glass, Liquids, Explosive substances, Matches, Indigo, Dyestuffs, Ice, Meat, Fish, Game, Fruit, Vegetables, or whatever is dangerous to the Mails, or likely to become offensive or injurious in transit. 3.-Parcels will as a general rule be forwarded by Private Ship, not by Contract Mail Packet. The Post Office reserves the right of selecting the opportunity for trans- mission, and of delaying delivery in case the number of parcels is such as to retard other correspondence. No responsibility is accepted with regard to any parcel. but the system of Registration will secure the senders against any but a very remote probability of loss.

Money Orders.

73.-Money Orders on the United Kingdom are issued at Hongkong and Shanghai Shanghai, Yokohama, and the Straits Settlements also issue local orders on Hongkong, and vice

versa.

74.-Small sums may be remitted between the other ports by means of Postage Stamps. (See paragraphs 7-10).

An

75.-Many money orders are supplied to residents at the smaller ports in this way. application for an order ‡ is filled up, and is enclosed with a stamped, directed, and unsealed envelope to the Postmaster at the nearest issuing office. The application must be accompanied with the full amount (including commission) in cheque, postage stamps, or other equivalent of cash, and a little margin should be left for variations of exchange. The Postmaster issues the order, sends it on in the envelope, and returns the change, if any, by first opportunity, with a receipt for the letter if it were to be registered, as it always should be. Care should be taken to send these applications in time, as the money order offices close some hours before the departure of the mail.

A Parcel Agency is conducted by Messrs. Lane, Crawford & Co.

76.-No order must exceed £10, or include any fraction of a penny. Orders will be drawn at the current rate of the day *, and paid at the rate of the day when the advice arrived. The commission is as follows:-

Orders on United Kingdom.

Up to £2......18 cents. Up to £ 5. .36 cents. Up to £7. ......54 cents.

Up to £10......72 cents.

Local Money Orders. Up to $25..... 15 cents.

Up to $50......30 cents.

77.-Lists of money order offices in the United Kingdom may be consulted at Hongkong and Shanghai.

　　　78.-Names must be given in full (except when there is more than one Christian name), but the name of the payee need not be given if the order be crossed (as cheques are crossed). It can then be paid only through a bank, and may afterwards be specially crossed to any bank.

79.-No order can be paid till the payee has signed it in the proper place. An order can be transferred to another office on payment of an additional commission. In case of loss of an order, necessity for stopping payment, or the like, application should be made to the nearest money order office for instructions.

　　　80.-If the order be not presented within six moths an additional commission will be charged; if not within twelve months, the money will be forfeited. When the order is once paid no further claim can be entertained.

81.-No order can be paid until the advice relative to it has been received.

Miscellaneous Suggestions and Regulations.

　　　82.-It is most desirable that every letter, or book, or pattern packet should bear the sender's name and address, as well outside as inside. If every letter were marked outside with the rame and address of the sender, no letter need ever be opened under any circumstances.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　To sign letters merely James, or Harriet, or the like, is a practice which leads to the letter being destroy- ed if it cannot be delivered.

83.-Letters addressed to clubs, hotels, mercantile houses, &c., to be called for, should be returned to the Post Office as soon as it becomes evident they will not be called for. No refund of postage will be made after three months.

84.-Unclaimed letters are advertised for three months (or four if for sailing ships) after which, if still unclaimed, they are returned to the country where they originated. Dead Letters (i.e. those returned from other countries to Hongkong) are returned at once to the writers, if the writers' addresses be discoverable on the outsides. If not, they are advertised for 10 days, then opened if still unclaimed, and returned to the writers if they can be found. If not they are destroyed.

　　　85.-Those who provide printed envelopes for their local correspondence would do well to add the addresses in Chinese.

　　　　86.-The word London alone is not a sufficient address for a letter, however well known may be the person or firm to whom it is directed. Number and street should be added, together with the proper distinguishing letters, E.C.; W.; S.E.; &c., as the case may be. Similarly, residents in China or Japan should have their correspondence directed fully. A letter directed W. Jones, Esq., Hongkong, would not improbably be put aside by the marine sorter for enquiry in the Hongkong office, and thus be delayed. But if it were directed W. Jones, Esq., Mesars. B. C. & Co., Hongkong, no difficulty could arise.

87.-Letters addressed London, To be called for, are not received at any offices but S. Martin's- le-Grand and Charing Cross, nor are they receiv here if directed to initials or fictitious names, or to any person except a stranger or traveller. No one is allowed habitually to receive letters through the Poste Restante in London.

89.-No Postmaster or Agent is allowed to return a letter to the writer, or to keep it back at the writer's request, without the written authority of His Excellency the Governor of Hongkong, or of Her Majesty's Consul at the port, on an application stating fully the reasons of the request, nor is he allowed to give any information as to correspondence passing through his hands.

　　　90.-Sealing wax ought never to be used on the outside of the correspondence unless covered with tissue paper.

91.-As a general rule, only clean Mexican dollars, or other current tender, can be taken at the Post Offices and Agencies, nor can change be supplied. At the Hongkong office, sovereigns are taken on request and change is generally to be had, but copper cash are not taken, nor are servants allowed to pay sums of ten cents or more in copper without a note from their employers. No postal officer is bound to give change, or to weigh correspondence, but he ought not to refuse to do the latter unless pressed for time.

　　　92.-Every shipmaster who delivers correspondence at a British Post Office in China is entitled to receive two cents for every letter, and one cent for every other article of corres-

pondence delivered by him, whether loose or in the mail. As a general rule, these sums are paid in Hongkong. No more than two years' arrears can be paid.

93. The co-operation of the public is requested on the following points :---

(a.) Distribute your correspondence as evenly as possible between the two mails (English and French). The practice of posting by the English mail only perpetuates in- conveniences to the public which might otherwise be got rid of.

(b.) Post all correspor.dence as early as possible; and if there is much of it, do not keep all for the last moment, but send off as much as can be got ready, and keep back only what must be kept back.

(c.) Do not attempt, when one contract mail is closing, to post or register correspondence

for the next (see paragraphs 48 and 62).

(d.) Send circulars, newspapers, or prices current, to the post with the addresses all one way, right way up, and as far as possible divided into lots for the different routes, i.e., all those for the United Kingdom together, for the Continent, for Asiatic ports, &c.

Do not mix up letters and printed matter in one confused mass. (e.) Do not post masses of circulars, for different steamers, all mixed up together. (f) Do not put off the purchase of stamps till mail day. As a general rule, they might

just as well be purchased some days before.

(9.) Do not send coolies with money at the last moment, expecting the Post Office to see that they stamp the correspondence properly, and to return a memo. of the change.

94.-It must be remembered that continual attention is paid in the Post Office to extending the facilities accorded to all. But if individuals decline to exercise the small amount of con- sideration required to comply with the above suggestions, not only is the extension of existing facilities rendered impossible, but even the question is raised whether it is practicable to continue them as they are.

95.-When correspondence is missing, time may be saved by at once sending information to the Postmaster-General, Hongkong, in the following form, or as near it as possible. If full information be not given enquiries cannot be made.

EXAMPLE.

1 ordinary* letter.

Bill of Exchange for £115.

Messrs. Saddler and Thompson, 75, Great Tower Street, London, E.C. · Foochow, on the 5th August, 1875, to go via Brindisi.

William Green, Foochoro.

Any complaint as to overcharge, delay, missending, &c., must be accompanied by the cover of the correspondence. The public would do well to bear in mind that Överland Envelopes become quite rotten after about two years in this climate, and not infrequently fall to pieces in transit, thus leading to complaints that the letters have been opened.

Hongkong Office.

96.-The Hongkong Office is open from 7 A.M. till 5 P.M. on week days. Mails arriving are distributed up to 9 P.M., or in the case of the British, French, or American Contract Mails out- wards, at any hour of the day or night. The hour at which delivery of a Contract Mail was begun is notified in the public papers as a check upon servants. Those who are at the windows when they are opened are always served within ten minutes at most. The Money Order Office is

open from 10 to 4, and 10 to 5 on mail days. It closes at 1 on Saturdays.

97.-The Office is closed on Sundays and Public Holidays, unless there are steamers leaving, when mails are made up from 8 to 9 A.M. Should any one of the outward Contract Mails arrive on Sunday, or in the night, the office is kept open only long enough to get the necessary work done (from one to three hours) and is then closed, all the correspondence being sent out either at once, or the first thing next morning as the case may be.

98.-The following are the hours for closing the contract mails to Europe, &c. :-

Previous Day.-

5 P.M., Money Order Office closes. Post Office closes except the Night Box, which

remains open all night.

Day of Departure :-

7 A.M., Post Office opens for sale of Stamps, Registry of Letters, and Posting of all

correspondence.

10 A.M., Registry of Letters ceases. Posting of printed matter ceases.

11 A.M., Post Office closes, except for Late Letters.

11.10 A.M., Letters may be posted with Late Fee of 18 cents extra postage, until

11.30 A.M., when the Post Office closes entirely.

* Or Registered as the case may be. Or 1 Newspaper, Book-packet, or Pattern Pucket, according to the nature of the correspondence missing.

401.

11.40 A.M., Late Letters may be posted on board the packet until time of departure. Late

Fee, 18 cents extra postage.

　　　Supplementary mails are closed on board the American packets (for Union countries only) and on board the Torres Straits Australian packets until time of departure. The Late Fee in either case is 18 cents.

All other mails are closed half an hour before the time of sailing, except the Contract mails for Shanghai, which close an hour before, with half an hour for the reception of correspondence with late fee of 18 cents.

　　　99.-Correspondence can be registered for the Indian, Torres Straits, Shanghai, or Yoko- hama Contract Mails up to a quarter of an hour before the time of closing; for all private ship mails up to five minutes before.

　　　100. Whilst making up the Contract Mails for the British, French, and Torres Straits Packets, it is necessary to keep the office wholly closed for at least ten minutes.

　　　101.-As to matters in which the public can render the department most valuable co-opera- tion, see paragraph 93.

102.-On mail days two windows are set apart for the sale of Stamps. Large quantities of newspapers, &c., should be brought to the boxholders' window, not dropped through the Letter Slits. Registry is effected in the Money Order office.

103. The charge for delivery of a letter, newspaper, book, or pattern within Victoria is 2 cents. No delivery is guaranteed to ships lying in the harbour. Local delivery is governed by the following general rules :-

1.-All correspondence posted before 5 P.K. on any week day for addresses in Victoria will be delivered the same day, and generally within two hours, unless the delivery should be retarded by the contract mails. Information can always be obtained as to when a delivery will take place.

2.-Invitations, &c., can generally be delivered within Victoria at the private houses of the addresses rather than at places of business, if a wish to that effect be expressed by the sender, otherwise all correspondence is invariably delivered at the nearest place of business.* No local delivery is attempted outside Victoria, nor within Victoria at houses where ferocious dogs are kept loose. 3.-Boxholders who desire to send Circulars, Dividend Warrants, Invitations, Cards, &c., all of the same weight, to addresses in Hongkong, Bangkok, or the Ports of China, may deliver them to the Post Office unstamped, the postage being then charged to the sender's account. Each batch must consist of at least ten. Such local letters may exceed the ǹ oz. weight, and are charged 2 cents per ounce. 4.-Boxholders may also send Patterns to the same places in the same way. Envelopes containing Patterns may be wholly closed if the nature of the contents be first ex- hibited or stated to the Postmaster General, as he may consider necessary, and approved by him. Printed Circulars may be inserted in such Pattern Packets. 104.-As to excepting the correspondence of individuals from the general delivery, see para- graph 21. Letters for persons whose addresses are known will not be kept Poste Restante except by especial permission of the Postmaster General and for satisfactory reasons.

　　　105.-Registered letters cannot be delivered with the same promptitude as ordinary corres- pondence, though in the case of the British mail the delay is made as short as possible by means of completing the registration at sea. Still, the postman who delivers them has to wait at each house whilst a receipt is signed. When registered correspondence is required in great haste, the best way is to call for it.

106. By the Post Office Ordinance (No. 10 of 1876) all transmission of correspondence from or delivery of correspondence in Hongkong, except through the Post Office, is illegal and subject to heavy penalties. Loose correspondence duly stamped may, however, be put on board vessels after the mails are closed at the Post Office.t The Stamps should be cancelled by the sender. A supplementary mail may be closed on board at the discretion of the Postmaster-General. The penalty for not giving proper facilities to make it up and to quit the vessel is $500.

107.-Shipmasters must deliver any mails or correspondence which may be on board to the Post Office without delay, and make a declaration that they have done so, under penalty of $500, There is always some person at the Post Office to receive mails, which need not, however, be landed later than 9 P.M., or earlier than 5.30 A.M., excepting, of course, the Contract mails.

108.-Shipmasters are entitled to certain gratuities (see paragraph 92) on correspondence brought, and the same may be paid on correspondence taken.

109.-Any person or firm about to despatch a vessel to any place out of the Colony must send the first notice to the Post Office. It is illegal to advertise, Despatches will close at- -A.M., or the like. In regard to sailing ships, the rule practically is that, if notice be not specially asked for, it is not tauired. It is required during the N.E. monsoon in the case of sailing ships starting for short voyages south of Hongkong, especially to Manila and Bangkok.

• This applies also to letters directed to Kowloon, the Peak, Aberdeen. &c.

✦ Correspondence brought to Post Office just too late for any mail is returned that this may be done. The

sender is of course at liberty to post it again should he wish to do so.

HONGKONG POSTAL GUIDE.

110.-A shipmaster is bound to take mails and sign a receipt for them.

111.-The master of a ship is beyond doubt the person responsible for the due delivery of mails. Every ship should be fitted with a locker or chest for mails, and nothing else should be put in it.

　　　　As soon as a mail comes on board, whoever receives it should place it in the mail locker, and before arrival at any port this locker should be examined.

Communication with Batavia.

　112-The Netherlands India Packets leave Singapore fortnightly, and are fitted to the arrival of the outward P. & O. Mail from Europe. The French Packets for Batavia wait at Sin- gapore for the Packets from China and run fortnightly.

Communication with India.

　113.-Correspondence for India is despatched by each British and each French Packet, as also by the direct steamers for Calcutta which leave about the 16th of each month. The route is chosen in each case so as to ensure the quickest possible delivery. Paid correspondence for Bagdad, Bassora, Bunder Abas, Bushire, Cabul, Gwadur, Kashmir, Ladak, Linga, Mandalay, Muscat, and Persia may be forwarded via India at Union Rates.

Communication with Australia.

　114.-There are three routes to Australia, viz., via Torres Straits, via Batavia and Port Darwin, and via Galle.

　115.-The Torres Straits route is the best for Eastern Australia as far as Melbourne, for New Zealand, Tasmania, and Fiji.* Correspondence for Adelaide and Perth may be sent by this route. The packets leave Singapore every four weeks, their departures being regulated by the arrival of the outward P. & O. Mail. There are also opportunities by private steamer by this route.

　116. The route via Batavia and Port Darwin affords means of communication with Port Darwin, but for other ports of Australia this route compares very unfavourably with the other two in respect of speed. The packets leave Batavia five times a year.

　117. The route via Galle is best for Western and Southern Australia, and is perhaps as advantageous as the Torres Straits route for Melbourne. Each alternate homeward French Packet connects at Galle with the P. & O. steamer which leaves that port for King George's Sound, Adelaide, and Melbourne. There is obviously no advantage in forwarding correspondence to Galle by intermediate steamers.

Communication with Mauritius, E. &. 8. Africa, &c.

　118.-The homeward French packets which are advertised to carry the Australian mail to Galle are also the best opportunities of forwarding correspondence to Aden for the Mauritius packet, and for Mozambique, Zanzibar, Natal, the Cape, St. Helena, and Ascension. As these packets leave Aden only once in every four weeks, there is little advantage in forwarding the correspondence by intermediate steamers.

The San Francisco Route, Canada, &c.

　119.-The route by San Francisco can be freely used for ordinary or registered correspondence for Union or Non-union countries,† the rates of postage to the former being 12 cents, &c. No mails for London or the Continent of Europe are closed by this route in Hongkong, as no prac- tical advantages result from its use. The making up of mails via San Francisco at Shanghai is left to the U. S. and Japanese Post Offices.

West Indies.

120-The following West India Islands are included in the Postal Union :--

Buen Ayre.

Cuba.

Curaçoa.

Desirade.

Guadeloupe.

Isle of Pines.

Jamaica. Les Saintes. Marie Galante. Martinique,

Oruha. Porto Rico. Saba.

St. Croix. St. Eustatius.

St. John. St. Martin. St. Thomas. Trinidad.

　To all other West India Islands Non-Union Rates must be paid (see Table). the Bahamas and Hayti via San Francisco are lower than to the other Islands.

The rates to

　The registration fee to the Union Islands named above is 8 cents, to all other British↑ West Indies, and Honduras it is 12 cents. The only Islands to which there is no registration are St. Bartholomew, Margarita, Tortuga, Los Siete Hermanos, and Hayti.

The Mediterranean.

　121.-An impression appears to prevail that correspondence for the Mediterranean stations, Gibraltar, Malta, Cyprus, the Levant, Turkey, &c., can be forwarded only by British Packet. It can be forwarded also by French Packet, and if so forwarded generally arrives a week earlier than if it had been detained for the British Mail.

* All correspondence for the above places is sent by this route unless specially otherwise directed. ↑ Correspondence for the West Indies (except those belonging to the Postal Union, the Bahamas, and Hayti), for

Monte Video, Paraguay, and Uruguay cannot be sent viå San Francisco.

IMPERIAL QUARTO.

ENGLISH AND CHINESE DICTIONARY,

WITH THE

PUNTI AND MANDARIN PRONUNCIATION.

AN ANGLO-CHINESE DICTIONARY, PUBLISHED AT THE "DAILY PRESS"

OFFICE, HONGKONG.

FOR service, stintes years been com-

OR scope and practical service this Work stands unrivalled. Al

the new words which the Chinese have of late years

pelled to coin to express the numerous objects in machinery, photography, telegraphy, and in science generally, which the rapid advance of foreign relations has imposed upon them, are here given in extenso. Each and every word is fully illustrated and explained, forming exercises for students of a most instructive nature. Both the Court and Punti pronunciations are given, the accents being carefully marked on the best principle hitherto attained. The typography displays the success of an attempt to make the Chinese and English type correspond in the size of body, thereby effecting a vast economy of space, achieving a clearness not previously attained, and dispensing with those vast margins and vacant spaces which have heretofore characterized Chinese publications.

The scope of the work is so great, and its utilitarian purposes so complete, that a reference to its pages enables a person who understands English to communicate effectively with natives who understand nothing but Chinese. In this respect the work will be found indispensable to all Europeans residing in China, and to the natives themselves it explains subjects fully with which very few indeed of them are perfectly acquainted. To parties resident in England and interested in China it cannot but be invaluable occasionally.

It comprises upwards of two thousand large quarto pages.

HUBBUCK'S

PATENT

WHITE ZINC PAINT.

The most durable and beautiful Paint known. Is cheaper in use than White Lead, and is proved to be superior for all purposes than the pernicious Lead Paint,

and equally adapted for all Climates.

ITS WHITENESS IS UNAFFECTED BY BILGE WATER, BOILING SUGAR, OR NOXIOUS GASES. It is free from any poisonous ingredient, and suited in all respects to the use of the Painter. Each cask of Pure White Zinc is Stamped-" HUBBUCK, LONDON PATENT."

HUBBUCK'S ANTI-CORROSIVE PAINTS.

The most valuable protection to iron roofs, bridges, piers, ships, and buildings exposed to tempestuous weather and scorching sun.

HUBBUCK'S ANTI-OXIDATION COMPOSITION.

For coating Iron and Wood Ships' Bottoms: a preservative against fouling and corrosion. This composition is ready for immediate use, and obviates the waste of carrying unmixed Paints, Oils, Driers, &c. It is also applicable to all the purposes of other Paints.

HUBBUCK'S ANTI-INCRUSTATION BOILER COMPOSITION throws down the deleterious matters in the water which form the incrustation, and does not in the smallest degree injure the iron plates, rivets, or brass fittings. HUBBUCK'S PALE BOILED OIL,

being much purer than raw linseed oil, is the only boiled oil that can be used for White and delicate coloured Paints. It dries quick and hard, never blisters, and is more durable. HUBBUCK'S BINNACLE AND COLZA OILS, prepared expressly for Ship's Lights, Lighthouses, &c.

HUBBUCK'S WHITE LEAD, COLOURS, OILS, AND VARNISHES,

properly packed for exportation.

HUBBUCK'S PAINTS, OILS, AND VARNISHES

are the best and therefore the Cheapest. Beware of counterfeits of their Name and Trade Mark.

CAUTION.

Since the successful introduction of their Pale Boiled Linseed Oil, some dealers are selling colourable imitations as "Pale Boiled Oil," "Improved Boiled Oil, Clear Boiled Oil," &c. These imitations are not to be depended on, and only cause disappointment and loss.

CONVICTION.

In April, 1873, a Native dealer, at Hongkong, was prosecuted and convicted of a fraudulent imitation of Hubbuck's Name and Mark, and of placing them on some spurious goods shipped from London,

BAGGAGE.

The attention of Passengers by the Company's Steamers is respectfully requested to the undermentioned Regulations in reference to Baggage : much trouble and loss are occasionally caused by their neglect or non- observance. These Regulations are equally important to Passengers performing the land journey between Alexandria and Suez, for the Egyptian Transit Administration will not accept any responsibility unless they be strictly complied with.

The Baggage of Passengers booked by the Company's Steamers will be received at their West End Branch, 25, Cockspur Street, S.W., if delivered not later than 3 p.m., on the Monday previous to the Steamer's sailing from Southampton. Such Baggage will be received, forwarded, and shipped at the rate of 75 per cwt. Baggage at Passenger's risk unless insured.

　　All Baggage should be packed in Leather Portmanteaux or Trunks, marked with the Owner's name and Port of destination in Paint, in full, and fastened securely with case locks, padlocks and leather straps being liable to damage or removal. The Transit Administration will not be responsible for the safe conveyance of insecure Packages. Canvas Covers to Packages of Baggage are not recommended, as they are frequently removed, and lead to the loss of the Packages.

　　The Baggage of Passengers must contain only their personal effects; Packages containing Jewellery, Plate, and other valuables, must be specially declared and registered prior to shipment, and Freight paid thereon. Any infringement of these Regulations will subject the. Packages to detention for Freight by the Company's Agents, and to confiscation by the Egyptian Government.

First-Class Passengers are allowed on board 336 Mb of personal Baggage free of Freight; Children of First-Class Passengers (over three and under ten years), Second- Class Passengers and Servants, 168 lb each.

　　A Passenger taking a reserved Cabin is entitled to take in the Steamers, free of Freight, 4% cwt.; and a married couple, paying for reserved accommodation, are entitled to take 9 cwt.

　　In order to facilitate the shipment and stowing of Baggage, Passengers are re- quested to have their Packages distinctly marked "Cabin,' "Wanted on Voyage," or "Not Wanted on Voyage," as the case may be. The Baggage of Passengers from Brindisi and Venice, shipped from Southampton to join them at Suez, should be marked "Wanted at Suez," and the Baggage of Homeward Passengers, viâ Italy, which they wish to take with them through the Continent, should also be marked "Wanted at Suez." Labels can be obtained on application at the Company's Office.

The charge for the conveyance of Extra Baggage is-

From any Port West to any Port East of Suez, or vice verså, 20s per cwt. Between any two Ports West of Suez, 10s per cwt.

Between any two Ports East of Suez, 10s per cwt.

　　Passengers booked through to any ports in connection with the Eastern and Australian Steam Navigation Company will have to pay that Company for any extra Baggage they may have from Singapore.

　　All Baggage must be shipped not later than noon on the day previous to sailing, except one Portmanteau for Cabin use, Bags or Hat Boxes.

　　The Portmanteau for Cabin use should not exceed 3 ft. in length, 1 ft. 3 in. in width, and 1 ft. 3 in. in depth.

　　Passengers proceeding to or from India, China, Japan, or Australia, vid Venice or Brindisi, can have their heavy Baggage conveyed by the corresponding Steamer to or from Southampton free of charge up to the regulated quantity.

　　Passengers joining the Company's Steamers at Suez can ship their Baggage from Southampton, subject to a charge of 10s per cwt.

　　Passengers making their own arrangements for transit through Egypt must claim their Baggage on the Outward Route at Alexandria, on the Homeward Route at Suez, as it will not be conveyed through Egyot under the terms of the Company's Contract with the Transit Administration.

　　Passengers requiring information respecting their Baggage during the Voyage can obtain it by application to the Officer in Charge.

Passengers who may miss any package of Baggage on arrival at their destination are recommended to apply, without delay, to the Company's Agent, giving full
