Mr Wodehouse read the report which
is as follows
The expenditure for the past year has been $2,695.01, and the receipts have been $2,897-20, which with the balance of last year $80.16, there remain in the hands of Secretary $183.38.
"In the expenditure are included- $800 which have been placed to the predit of The Typhoon Repair Fund, so that the actual balance of the Club, including $1,200 plated to the credit of this Fond in 1877 is NOW $2,182.88.
In the expenditure are also included $520 which have been devoted to paying off the old debts contracted in 1878.
"During the year two four-onrod boats have been added to the Club, vis: the Thistle, a presentation from Mr Gillies, and the Sphere parchased from the officers of the 28th Regiment for the sum of $120. A canoe has also been bought.”
He then said that a Committee would have to be elected: Mr R. 8. F. Walker and Mr Schultes had left the Colony, and two new members would have to be elected in their place. He would propose that Mr Jackson be re-elected Chairman. He had taken a great interest in the Club during the last years, and the members were deeply indebted to him (Applause). Mr Hynes said he begged to second that pro- posal.
Mr Jackson said he thought some one she could have been found to have filled the post of chairman, but since the desire for his re-election was so unanimous be should be only too glad to comply with their wishes. He thought these little olubs were a great benefit to the Colony and promoted good feeling. They might well be proud of their olubs, and very faw places in the East equalled them.
The following gentlemen were then olect. ed as a Committee for the ensuing year ; ¦ Messrs Hynes, Wodehouse, Von Bobers, Beart, Dr. Clouth, and George,

Mr J. D. Humphreys, proprietor of the Hongkong Dispensary, was summoned at the instance of one Kwek alam, his cook, for assaulting him by throwing hot water in his face. The complainant stated that he made tea for the defendant at 7:30 am yesterday and took the water from the tap. The defendant said the water used was dirty and told complainant to shew him some of the water. He (complainant) then took a sup of the same hot water he had used to make the tea, to defendant, and the defendant threw it in his face. His eyes, he said, were sore from the effects of the seald, and there was a slight mark on his face, In reply to the defendant he denied having said that there was no water in the tap and that he had taken it from a basket in the bathroom.
Chu A-obu, a servant at the Dispensary, corroborated the last witness statement.
Fang A-teung said he had heard that water was thrown in complainant's face, it was red, but he did not appear hurt. Witness had given the complainant orders thirteen months ago to take all water for cooking purposes from the soda water manufactory.
The defendant stated that the couplainant brought him come tes yesterday morning, and he drank half the oup off at a draught; it had a slightly putrid taste. He sent for the water, and it was nearly the colour of tea. Fined $1.
