For days past the opinion has been freely expressed tint the ceremony or ranged for to-day would not take place without a hitch. The intake made by the Government who is engaging in building operations and relying upon the Chicene authorities for protestion. Such a course was calculated to invite disaster and humiliation, and that these have not proved more seriaus than they have must be set down simply to good fortune. As soon is it was decided to sommence the erection of police barracks at Taipo, a military guard should have been plad in charge. Had thie been done the opposition would never have gained head. If for any reason it was deemed inexpidi ent to station troops in any part of the ter; ritory until it was finally taken over, theu the erection of the police station shoald have been deferred until after the dag had been hoisted.
