Of ista en hescunt of the Chiness officials compelling the josa. houses, monasterios, and convents to pay taxes for the kooping of schools and colleges where pupils are taught in English and Chinese, a great number of priests have changed their religion, and joined that of Japan for protection.

tion. Japan can confisoste these cargoes if she is able to intercept them; if she cannot, it is not our business to help her. It may be argued that coal should not hare been sold to the German steamers who obviously intended to HIGH EXCHANGE supply the Baltic Fleet, and it is admittedly illegal for British shipowners to carry voal direct to Hussian war vessels, Bat it should also be remembered that the sales of coal directly for the Baltic Flest bear a small proportion to all that other cool which has for months past been going out to Vladivostok. Now for the other side of the picture. Six months ago tho compisists were the other way about, and the Continental Press maintained that the British and American contraband trado with Japan was enabling her to carry on the war, Russia not being able to stop the trade in the only Permissible way by care rambled just as DOW. British Japan appears to be traders and shipownes kave poured coal into Japan. They have sent her guns, ammauition, sactions of torpedo-boats, blankets and army clothing, rails, and many more munitions of war. The war orders for heavy woollen goods, most of them on Japanese Boconnt, are estimated by Correspondent this murning (Nov. 26) in The Times Financial and Commercial Supplement at £1,300,000. This estimate is probably within the mark. Nine or ten steamers have gone to Japan packed with guns and ammunition, and under £2,000,000. Almost every steamer which the total value of these, eargees is not much has sailed from Europe for Japan during the past nine months las carried contraband goode supplied by British traders.

HEAD QUARTERS,
Chew Sui, Choung and others of the wealthiest class in Canton having formed three companies under the names of Kang Yik. Po Leung, ant To On with a view to taking a monopoly of the various sundry taxes, jare presented a petition to the Viceroy offering to pay to the Government fourteen millions five hundred and fifty thousand dollars for the privilege of taxing the people, and Hin Ex- cellency the Viceroy Shum in rejecting such proposal and in answer to the petition, says: The amount the petitioners propose to the Government is really very great, and it is a great temptation; but thequestion is, where in the money to coms from? It must be robbed and squoozel from the people, which might a revolution, and which no civilized power would allow. For instance, the petitioners propose to tax the suitors the same as buying and selling weres in market. If we allow this, it would be letting loose hundreds and thousands of wolves and tigers in all the districts and towns of China to prey upon the people, which might bring on a revolution. As to taxing the brides and bridegroeias, encubines, and servant girls in China, we have no law that prohibits proper marriage, a husband from taking concu lines, or buying or selling girls. For thousands of years our government bare treated the people with indulgence and benevolence, and there should not be any special limenso er squeeze under these circumstances. As to taxing upon the prostitutes, brother, and restaurants fro quented by prostitutes, from the very ancient anuals I cannot find any law that imposes such taxes upon this class of people. They are earn ing a shameful livelihood, If we were to take such ill-gotten money from them it would be infamons. As to taxing the actore, we have already taxed them; if we tax them more, say 20 per ceat, upon their earnings, they will not be satisfied.
