The observations of the Total Eclipse, in Egypt, were very successful, and fruitful in valuable results, not the least important of which is that the French photographs showed indications of the existence of a Lunar atmosphere.

It was only the Taotai who howled about the proposed introduction of tramways into the Settlements, not the Chinese. (These have dropped out of sight, we don't know why). in short, the Chinese people have no prejudices and passions about foreigners and their trade and inventions; it is the Mandarins, who are afraid that Western science is some how incompatible with unlimited squeezing and that the commercial class as they get richer by foreign trade will become more important at home.

The recruiting of the Hongkong Police force has, fe- cording to the Bristol Times and Mirror, beca one of the principal objects the worthy chief had in view. Our Bristol contemporary says:-- "We hear that the Chief of Police of Hongkong has pakt a visit to Hristol, in common with other places, for the purpose of obtaining men to pro- ceed to Hongkong to join the police force there. He was not particularly successful in the Metro- polis, "only obtaining fourteen men, but in thirty and forty men have been induced to Bristol, he has succeeded far better. Between

As immediate antecedents to America's treaty with Corea nothing, says the Japan Mail, could Chinese-immigration bill and Commodore Shu have been more unfortunate than the anti- feld's open letter to the Hon.

To the latter we have already briefly alluded, but we cannot suffer to pass without pro- test the gross and, we believe, totally groundless charge which the Commodore has not hesitated to bring against the moral character of the Em- press Regent. Far from coinciding with our con- temporary, the North China Daily News, which thinks that Commodore Shufeldt's manifesto con- tains nothing new, we venture to assert that the annals of diplomacy exhibit no instance of such a gratuitously insulting calumny being openly uttered by the représentative of a civilized coun- try against the sovereign of a friendly 'empire. Even if there were a shadow of trustworthy evidence in support of the accusation, we can not but think that the Commodore's instincts

sible and calumnious gossip was scarcely a role adapted to the successful discharge of his duty or to the dignity of his country, nor do we find any extenuation for his conduct in the fact that at the very time this strange statement was going the round of the press, its author was receiving the Government in his endeavours to establish rela friendly support and assistance of the Chinese tions with Coren. We do not care to conjecture what the members of that Government must have thought when they found that at one moment
