It is rumoured in Victoria that owing to the great scarcity of accomodation for the Officers of
M. Army, the Government intend to have re- course to the system of billetting them upon the in- habitants.
From Canton we learn that the ruins of the late fire are

No attempts have been made to restore the Danish Hong, the merchants being indisposed to commence building owing to the delay in fixing the lines and other details respecting the tenure. Much inconvenience is felt for the want of resi- dences and complaints are heard on all sides. It is to be hoped that a speedy settlement of the plans will be effected and buildings commenced.

A letter signed JUSTITIA" (an evident mistake, have been Ignoramus) appeared in the cents for every suc-ast number of the Hongkong Register, purporting
