The bearers of four chairs charged on the 3rd inst. by Mr L. L Bush with refusing > take a fure, again appeared tod at the be charge to-day. Mr Bash stated
st hearing that he lived at East Point, n the 22nd he wanted a chair to come ito Victoria. There were four chairs at he chair stand near Jardine, Matheson & o,'s premises. The complainant sent a y to call one, bat he came back and said be coolias would not come. He told the by to take the numbers of the chairs. A onstable was there at the time, and be rought the bearers of the four chairs to he house. They all refused to take a fare, leging that the complainant did not pay dem well. The complainant bad, however, aid them enough, but it was at times mpossible to get change, and they were ld to come again to get paid. But when hey did come, the complainant was often ot in. He admitted
that it waÍ iconvenient for the coolies to come o get paid. He never paid them less than wenty penta. The complainant's boy, Lung Aming, corroborated the statement that the defendants refused to accept fore. They said the complainant paid them very badly. Sometimes they were baid 20 cents and sometimes 12 couts for going into town, Sometimes they had to Some again for their money. They were old to come in the morning, and when they came in the morning, the complainant ould not be downstairs, and they would en be told to come later la the day. The Sefendants said they got only ten cents to to to the Mosque, and had to call three or four times before getting paid.--The case as postponed for one week in order to see how the defendants would behave mean- time. When they came up to-day, they inid that there had been no difficulty since. They had carried the complainant and he ed paid them properly." They were ac-

CHINA AFFAIRS AT HOME. (From our London Correspondent.)
London, May 12th, 1876. Since my last little has occurred on this side of special interest to readers in China ; complaints are made in every direction of badness of business more especially with the East, with which it is almost impossible to conduct trade with a chance of success in face of the complications resultant from de- preciation of silver.

As our readers are doubtless aware, the line is now the property of the Provincial Govern ment-hence the increased vigour of the authorities!
Referring to the native trouble near Swatow, mention of which was made in our last issue, we hear of further disturbs cos, and that the Magistrate at Chang Poo, in the Chang Chow profecture, has been taken by the rioters and quartered.

I am informed that a change of some im. portance in the manner in which business connected with China is being conducted in London is becoming apparent. It is in some respects similar to that which came over business in China seme ten or twelve years ago; when trade begun to pass away from the comparatively limited number of large firms, who had to a great extent had a monopoly of it, into the hands of smaller houses, who starting upon a basis more
