Tx letter addressed by Mr. HUANG CHUN
SIEN to Sir CECIL C. SMITH, and repro- duced in another column, ought to serve as a solemn warning to the British Govern- ment against ever permitting the appoint ment of a Chinese Consul in this colony. It has been deemed that Singapore being situated at some distance from China, the appointment of a Chinese Consul sere as unobjectionable, if not indeed advisable. Even, there, however, we find the Consulate being used us an agency for the collection of revenue by irregular means. How much greater therefore would be the danger of similar occurrences in Hongkong, which is in immediate contiguity to the province of Kwangkong and where the Chincee population has such intimate conàcation by family ties with the mainland.
