It is more than probable, We say, that the Secretary and members of the Howard Association may be all this; but it is nevertheless a great pity that so little of it should have been shown to their fellow-countrymen in this part of the world. Such, however, is the peculiarity of the modern humani tarian, he takes to his bosom every Be except his own flesh nud blood, and ignoring the theories that "blood is thicker than water," and that “clarity begins at home," he blubbers and weepa over the burglars and cut-throats of other nations.

The longer letter from Mr Johnson's pen is not only a graceful crystallisation of public grievances, but it is one of the ablest papers on the position of Hong kong that has yet appeared; and one recommendation which it possesses,. although that probably will have little weight with the Howard Association is this, that the author having been an etor in or an eye-witness, of mast of he events there recorded, speaks with an authority which cannot well. e questioned.
