The Anniversary Tea meeting and concert of the 1.0.C.T. society will be held in the Temper ance Hall, to-morrow, Wednesday, night. Sup per will be served at seven o'clock, after which there will be a concert of a varied character. We informed by the Secretary of the 1.0.G.T.'s that several ladies have kindly promised to as sist in the concert, also that H.E. the Adminis- trator would have taken the chair on the occasion, but for being slightly indisposed.
We note the departure, by the Ocean Company's
steamer Cyclops, on a well camed leave of abs sence, of Mr. James G. Liddell, the Dock Com pany's Superintendent at Kowloon. Mr. Liddell who had the misfortune to lose his wife recently, and who has been in indifferent health for sonte
time past, has been granted twelve months holi- day by the Directors of the Dock Company, and no servant the Company ever possessed better deserved this thoughtful consideration. Joining the service in 1865, both at Whampoa, in the. old days when the port of Canton was a flourishing place, and for many years past at Kowloon, Mr. Liddell has proved a tower of strength to his employers. In the opposition times the popularity of the Superintendent of Kowloon Docks, attracted a vast deal of patronage to the Company which would have gone elsewhere, and the excellent manner in which all kinds of work were completed at this admirably managed estal fished, gave the Hongkong and Whampoa Dock Company a great name throughout the Far East. Always struggling against difficulties Mr. Liddell by care, tact, and strict attention to his multifar ious duties was enabled to return results from Kowloon which no other man in China could pro bably have equalled. Like many other persever- ing men, Ma Liddell has sown for others to reap. Kowloon was never in such perfect order as at present, and we have no doubt that it will show grand returns to the Company, now that the ex lensive alterations and repairs, which have for years cramped the place so far as its profits were con cerned, have been completed. A more popular, and deservedly popular, man than Mr. James Gilmour Liddell never lived in this colony. Prior to his departure by the Cyclops, the European foremen at Kowloon presented him with a very handsome silver mug, suitably engraved, as a token of their regard and respect, and the Chi- nese employds showed their appreciation of his qualities by tendering a beautiful silk flag. We wish Mr. Liddell a safe and pleasant voyage, and an agreeable holiday, anil hope to see him. back at his past, refreshed and rejuvenated, a year hence.

After the Captain had steamed some distance up Hutau Bay, he discovered his mis take, and turning round, stenined out. and while doing so the Yorkshire struck on Thalia Bank. At low water, the Yorkshire was high and dry on one side. On Thursday night, the Kung-pai, while passing, was signalled to, and her captain sunta boat and enquired what was the matter.
