Lord Grey said that under freedom con- of the Heux and under modern ditions a blockade could not be effec tive.
If any in the United States are Im patient at Britain reluctance to tako up the freedom of the scus, he writes, they should bear in mind the terrible ordeal through which Britain passed and in which the blockade was a great factor in winning safety. Britain must always be dependent on imported food. In War Time. "Would not it be well to accept Mr. Hoover's suggestion that food shipa in time of war should be free?" he asks.. "We might, by accepting, be. imparting or retarding our chances of victory, in A future war, but we should be greatly. Increasing. our own security. As long as we could deny freedom of "the scas to enemy supplies and maintain it ourselves the position was naturally satisfactory to us, but the inventions of science have already put the matter in doubt, and should they progress to the point where even a superior navy could not keep the sea open in time of war for national supplies, at Britain. has as much as any other nation to gain by assured freedom of the sear
"But should there be a future war in which Britain is again a belligerent and the United States neutral, the samò dangerous situation will assuredly re- ear if we have meanwhile refused to. discuss the freedom of the seas."

HONG KONG TIDE
The tide-table given below ha been obtained by aid of the Tide-pre dieting Machine, which includes f components for the better prediction of tides, from the result of the
analyals of the tidal observations taken at the Kowloon tidal observa
under the direction of Dr Deberek during the years 1887, 1889
and 1889.
The times and heights are giver for Kowloon; but they may be und for the Victoria Nayal Yard ́and Aberdeen, the differences being very amall.
The times of high and low-wate mast not be comaldered to coincidi with the times of slack-water and change of current, the two phenomena being quite distinct.
