Thore the King holde big court in great sacln- sion; no stranger, whether Chiness or foreignos, being allowed inside this city gato sa noy pretence whatever. Ocup a year to visita aidonttage by the sea" partly for pleasure and sea-batbing and to inspect the forts at its entrance of the river, placed there-to-warn forsign powers that, in casa of invasion, the country would be held the cannon's mouth."
For the last air weeks prepications have been going on for his recoption. A complate desk.or spclosure, raoking from the palace to a hundred yards out in the river, has been formed by stakes “driveu suto the ground and covered with strong bamboo matting, so that the King my disem. bark and anter his palace without being sub- jouted to vulgar gate. The molosure will slao servo es a bathing plass for His Majesty. A large target, measuring sbout 30 foot cock way, has been everted in a convocions annd-bill, a quarber of a mile from the largest fort. This will be shot at when the King roriawa tha sol-

Now the eventful day has arrived; the uar. bour is cleared of jaoks, debing boats, and other

The King is known to be shy of foreigners; suð this ship batog here might be laid to their blame, so they are troubled in their minds. Bat they must reake the best of it for the stourer will not leave nosil hor cargo to discharged.
Shortly after daybreak the Royal flotilla appeared coming down the riven It consisted of ever fifty long, low canods, gaudily dsoked with flag and tinsel work, and containing a crow of about fifty soldiers eash. The Royal Barge occupied the centre; it was like a larga waggon gr meungotie car, quite plosed in, and had the Royal Standard stuck in front. It was towel by's number of the sunsiler cances, the soldiers for the nouse nating as tailors und "paddling, their own canòs),”
As the flotilla eared the palace a salute of nine gens was fired from the foremost bargs, and: answered from the big forts on the paints. Then

The gate was than closed so that nothing could be sesh by those outside; among when the narrator is no. fortunately classed.

Those boats renišived in that position throughout the day.
