new quarters of the Engineers' Institute, have, we learn, been rented to a Protestant Mission, and will be shortly occupied as a girls' boarding school. We hope soon to hear of the Engineers finding suitable premises.
We hear the trainer of Gil Blas is rather sur- prised to learn that sonic of the greatest oppo- nents to his system of training are backing the Far more in my line was the wedding at St. pony heavily, both in the lotteries and other John's Cathedral yesterday morning. Of course wise. When a mann puts his money on, one I looked in, and saw such a large gathering of gets a good insight into his real opinions; which ladies, mostly young and pretty (hum; ha! hein?);do.not always coincide with those expressed, that I almost fancied myself at home. By the way, have you ever noticed that young ladies always look prettiest at a wedding? 'I don't think one ever sees such a pleasant expression on the faces of a number of young and pretty girls as when they are witnessing a ceremony in which they all hope to take a part some day, and if rumour is correct, several present yesterday as "witnesses” will be "principals" before long in a similar ceremony.

Whilst walking along in an amiable frame of
mind from the Cathedral, my usually serene tem- perament was upset by two coolics rushing along the footpath on the Praya with a bale of goods slung from a bamboo. Is it right to allow these men to monopolize the entire footpath as they do. frequently? I have seen them often rushing down past the Post Office in a whole string, compelling foot passengers to-turn into the road. It is al most as bad as the chair and jinrickshaw nuisance when one leaves the Club or Hotel, for even when a man is sufficiently saber to walk they 'do their best to trip him over their "infernal"
machines.

We are sorry to hear that through the neagre entries for the meeting announced for Saturday, the committee have decided to postpone the meeting until the Spring. Undoubtedly training for rowing and running cannot be carried on very well together, and the postponement of the meet- is well advised, as most of those engaged in the Regatta are members of the Athletic Club.
The crown of the training course was good going, although from the late rain, naturally slow. A heavy mist hung over the course until a late hour, rentiering the "watch" useless. There is really nothing to report of interest, except-
ing that that much overlooked pony Castigator is daily improving, and is a dangerous competitor to Montezuma in the St. Leger, especially on a heavy course. A pony fell and seriously bruised his rider. This is attributable to the shape of the training course, and we are surprised that more accidents have not before occurred.- Courier,
Sir Walter Medhurst arrived to-day from Hong- kong by the French mail.
The Italian corvette Christofo Colombo ar rived here yesterday, en route to Hongkong, Singapore and Europe. The British gunboat Daring left Nagasaki for Yokohama on the 16th instant. The British gunboat Afoorhen arrived at Kobe, from Chefoo, on the 17th instant. The Japanese corvette now under construction in the Yokosuka dock will most likely be ready for launching in January next.
The grass course was not open this morning. Oct. 26th. We are sorry to hear that Tajmahal is lame. We also very much regret to hear that Stratharos has gone lane. This may be attri course; a pony cannot go with one leg on a dif ferent platform to the other without great pro
I was, of course, on duty at the Cricket field yes. terday and witnessed the exciting match between the Buffs and the Garrison. The former team - did not play-with-their-usual-ability, but I think
the ground, notwithstanding the care I have be-buted to the deplorable state of the training stowed on it, is too dry to be reliable, and the balls "rise" alarmingly. A couple of days rain is needed for this as well as for the Paddy fields, as our sporting friends who "chase the wily snipe know to their cost. My old frictid “Tay- lor" tells me the racecourse is also gradually getting very hard.
There has been a great deal said and written about the steamship Houam, and very little about the Hankow. Now, Sir, the latter steamer is running on the line, and, though nearly nine years old, is keeping her time within a few minutes of the new "racer." I went to look over the fan kow the other day, and she certainly is a credit' to the Captain who commanded her and brought her down safely from Shanghal. She is larger considerably than the Honam, and can accommo- date, I am told, about 2,800 passengers; but the principal feature in heris her exceedingcleanliness and neatness, not superficial, but thoroughly carried out in every detail; and I feel sure Cap lain C. L. Perks must look at her with longing and regretful eyes from his new command, the old Ichang, which, by the way, was built since the Haukow, though she has done more work and may be said to deserve her well earned rest and overhaul.

bability of going lame. Steps should have been taken long ago to, remedy' this; it has been pointed out often enough.
The United States Vice-Consul General, we hear, paid a visit to the Governor-General of these provinces at Nanking the other day to see
•him about the recent arrests, in Shanghai. We hear Tso Tsung-tang told him something to the effect that United States citizens could erect as many manufactories as they liked, but if there were Chinese shareholders in them he would
look after then. He said the foreign Consuls had no more to do with his arresting Chinese in the Settlements than he had with their arresting their own nationals.
There is a Chinese proverb about the effect upon people of "cating Peking rice." It acts as a kind of charm. We have seen the unfortunate
result of it upon our diplomatists since they went to live there twenty years ago. The editor of our morning paper has also been to Peking and regaled himself upon Peking rice: one of the consequences is he takes without any further enquiry, all the documents that come from Peking about Korean affairs as authentic. Some of them bear their falsehoods on the face of them; others are probably inere fabrications at Peking. We have never seen the exterritoriality of foreigners put more neatly than yesterday morning. The "bright peint in the Chinese Imperial system to subject Kingdoms is the extradition principle," so it is owing to the clemency of the One Autocrat that the inhabit
