From Australian papers it appears that an Australian electrical engineer has overcome these difficulties by means of one signal wire, and a rasotṭing wire which automatically restores to its proper position the notion of the target struck by the bullet.

marking targets, Mr. Rose set his mind to pressed to Mr. For the opinion that it should be possible in adopt some mechanical means of work, and evolved a system which he has now patented, not only in Australia, but in twenty- two other countries. The point of differance between Mr. Roe's invention and that of other faventors of electrical targets is that two wiree are said to perform, the same service as a couple of hundred.
Behind the target is a transmitter boxinto which all the wires a maouted with the different. soc ions of the target pass. From this box
The indicator may be carried from one-firing mound to another, and the wire may be tapped at anch range. Mr. Rose slates that its mechanism is no more intricate than that of a watch. Es estimates that the cost of filling ap a target with his apparses would be from Lo £50. The only further expense would be the small cost of a periodios) inspection of the instruments. Clubs would be required no longer to engage and pay markers. It is probable that before the rifle shooting season begins Mr. Rose will have his apparatus attached to a target at the Williamstown ranges, so that he may gire a, practical demonstration of its capabilities while the English tea ù of rifl smen is in Australia- N.C.

It is quita evident that the centre of magni-ouly 'one wire connects with the indicator at the tude of the world's trade is moving in the firing moand, and the mechanical contrivance in direction of the Pacific aroa.

The steamabip traffic will afford a very good index of the tendency of events, and it is in teresting to nets intelligent Japanese opinion regarding it. Mr. Shiraishi, the manager of the Oriental Stonehip Company of Japan, rently stated that the steamship service of the Pacific is varied in nature, but he thought that it would be controlled not by England, Ger many, aud. France but by Japan and America, and he confirmed that opinion by a referenos to to the trade on the America-Japau line, which he showed had greatly increased during the last ten years and he had no doubt the samon tendency world be kept up. In respect to passon- gera, it was certain that with the growth of closer communication bswoon the West and the East, the numbers would be greatly incressed. Ho believed that the exclusion of "the Chinese and the Japsuose emigrant is now su established fact, no matter in what language the treation aisy by couebed. The accommodation on board the steamers must be improved, and the Japa nsae, who were interested in the matter, were determined to make the means of conveyance apon the seas as comfortable as those on land, The trade between Japan and South America was only started a year or two age, but alresily considerable it has made
progress. Mr. Shiraishi, Lowover,--pointod out that.. yet, there are few Japanese who know condition anything about the promising

of the Japanese South American trade, and have not yet realized the fact that there is a new empire being created in South America. Even as it is, trade with no country in the world seems so lucrative as that of South America at present; and he urges his follow- countrymen to take full advantage, of it. It seems to himbat destiny of the country depende on the working of the Pacific ronte, aud, there. for, Japan, to which the attention of the nations of the world is directed, mast always be on guard to establish ber plans most firmly, and thus advance the progress and der lopment of the country. We only vish we saw the same intelligent interest in the future of Britia among its people as we fint in Jap with regard to the future of Japan. The chief reason of its success in the past is the ontba iasm with which its people as a whole enter into any plans for national aggrandissimfnt. Eigin eering,
