HOW THEIR CHINESE MAJESTIES PASS THROUGH PEKING.
A CENTURIES OLD CUSTOM STILL
PREVAILING,
The P&T. Timer Correspondant at Poking writes on November 8th :-
I was called out to the North West Cornar of the City on the same day that the Empress Dowager, the Emperor, and all their rotinne were returning from the Summer Palace, to Poking. I found myself in a email street, which was not only small bat quite orooked, and as I turned one of its bends I saw carriages and carts, besides people on horse back and poople on foot. And perhaps a hundred foot in front I saw a cloth curtain across the end of the streat where it opened out into the larger street, This larger street was the line of march for the Imperial party and here I was stopped.
So the Royalty of Chins have travelled back and forth during the years and so they will travel for many years to come. Modern improve monte gire way to this ancient custom, and when the Emperor goes any road that takes him year the Railways all trains stop running and for a day or more there is no coramunisation with Poking, not even the misils departing or arriving.

To former days if one placed himself somewhere along the line of march, in not too conspicuous a place, one was allowed to romain there and see the preassiou. But now-a-days there is usually a notice sant around from one's own Minister to the effect that he has received notice from the Chinese Authorities that on such a date the Imperial Party will move from such a place to such a place and he requests all his nationals to avoid the line of march at that time.

This last was an immense party of men on horses who rode in no given formation, who just pushed forward in a mass, whose sola object seemed to be to keep as close to the Em press' abair as possible. They were armed in every way, but not in a way that would be effec- tive in case they were needed.

As Anglo-Indian writes in the following strain to the Ceylos Observer :-----
You sometimes speak of Ceylon es in advance of India and as an oxample in progress.to har big neighbone From my comparatively brief knowledge of bath, I can only say that speaking from the point of view of a man of business and a visitor, the Administration of India is 50 years in front of this Crown long in enlighten- ment and in liberality. In all seriousuess I say that it would be a good thing for every one con- nected with business and commerce, if Indis angered and govorned your istand. I will detail. four branches of Administration, the most important of all for business and trade, in which Ceylon is terribly behind her big neighbour.
In respect
(1) of her Postal Service and Estas. (2) of her Telegraph' Service and Rates. (3) of her Railway Passengers and Goods Estes. (4) of her Customs Tariff,
it is scarcely necessary for me to say a word in respect of 1 sad 2; for your eclumus hava lately had more than enough evidence that in Postal Telegraph arrangements and
rates, Ceylon is miles behind India and has a great deal to learn fromm bor. For No. 3 also, your local Press has often supplied evidence; in fact the rales charged in Caylon per-mileage for passengers and goode are far beavier than finally, if anybody will take the trouble to I have ever heard of in any part of India; and, compare the Customs Tariff of the two countries they will see how much more enerous and more numerous are the Ceylon Customs Duties than are those of India. Why is this 'thas for British territories separated only by a fair miles!
Then the street guards were formed up into their companies and marched off. These are regular soldiers. Two troops of mounted in- fantry, one of which was a Manchu Troop and the others Chinese, followed, and both troops gave one the impression that the men coul i give needed. After the M.I came a good account of themselves if they were really many soldiers armed with swords which I have seen being made along the streets of Toking by hand and which an be bought for fifty Mexican couts.
