a knowledge of the feasibility or other wise of such a scheme in this Colony Hongkong world in must naturally looked to by the Chinese for an example of enterprise and energy in furthering and improving her communications, such as they are. Her roads are excellent; her ferry-bonts and steam-launches have been remarked as marvels in their way; What than would be more natural and reasonable than that Hongkong should show China the way to utilize steam on her roads; and that this should be done ander the reign of Sir John Hennessy His Excellency would thus be enabled to leave his work indelibly written on the surface of this Island; and be would merely, in so doing, give a helping hand to the certain development of the City. It must be done, sooner or later; and we fail at present to understand why it should not be done now, Were the present Governor to turn the first sod of the Hongkong Railway he would take a place in the History of British Colonies and British relations with China that he has not yet succeeded in doing.
