PREBURR of other matters of importance has proverited our noticing at an earlier date the remarke which were made in the Shang, hai Courier with reverence to the question of the blockade of Hongkong by the Chinese Government cruisers. Those observations are based upon an obvious misconception of the ime bearing of the subject, as the writer evi- dently imagines that the object on the part of the Community in calling for some protection being given to the trade of the port against those vorations oxuctions, is simply to induên a large number of Chinese to settle in the Colon's Mak-pak-lin, a barhet, was sent to, three with a view of so obtaining advance in

With however, the recollection of the scheming which took place in the Model Settlement to get up the price of property before him, a Shanghai writer may perhaps be excused for imagining that similar views influenced Hongkong, and possessing the great advantage in arguing by analogy of a very slender noquaintance with the true facte on one side, it was not difficult for bina to place the subject in a light, which, if not trac, was at least somewhat plausible,
