A
SWATOW.
[FROM OUR CORRESPONDENT.)
30th January! Of the two "lame ducks lately arrived here, the brig Tartar, after effecting some neccessary repairs ordered by our worthy surveyor, Captain Asverus, has accepted a charter to load for Singa pore and bring back from there a cargo of hard
wood, for the sum of $2,5ca; she is allowed 40 lay days. The brig Argos discharged her sand ballast and took in stone ballast, intending to go to Foo- chow to load poles, which would have prevented her sinking, and she might then have floated to Shanghai; but as she is still making a good deal of water, her captain thought it safer not to risk the life of the crew or his own, so he has telegra plied to Shanghai for further orders.
On the 21st instant the German authorities here, Consul von Mällendorff and Mr. Schaar, sent an ultimatum to the Taolai about the vexed land question, but were unable to come to an understanding. The German gunboat is got up steam and left at 4 pm. for Hongkong, to communicate per telegraph with the home author ities, and also with the minister at Peking. She returned from Hongkong on the 26th, and is now. anchored opposite Mr. Schaar's residence; so for the present everything remains in statue quo about this troublesome affair.
I hear from good authority, that Messrs. Jar- dine, Matheson & Co. have bought Messrs. Douglas Laprik & Co.'s business; and that we shall probably lose one of our most respected residents, Capt. A. G. Pitman, who, it is sald, intends going home on a well earned holiday but we sincerely hope to see him back again amongst us, or in command of one of the coasting steamers, as it was. always a treat to travel in a steamer commanded by Capt. Pitman. I hear the transfer of Messrs. Douglas Lapraik's business will take place in April next, but I cannot tell who is to be man ager yet.
On the 29th instant the Commissioner of Customs, Col, Jamieson, gave 'n ball which was | thoroughly enjoyed; dancing was kept up until the small hours of the morning-Mercury.

We shall all be very sorry to part with Mr. Meyer, but at the same time we are very glad to see the gap which he creates so well and quickly filled.
The weather lately has been very wintry. Of ice and snow we have had an extraordinary share this season. The bills are all covered with snow at present, presenting a son of Alpine coup d'ail. If the weather keeps clear and frosty, we may indeed look forward to a good time of it up-country at the New Year holidays. Mercury Corespondent,

made public, and in the interests of foreigners it should not pass unrecorded. It is well known that nearly all the cargo in the ni was owned by natives, who had not taken the precaution to protect themselves in case of loss by insurance. Soon after the wreck occurred a meeting of the various native shippers was convened at a tea to "taboo the owners of the steamers in case house in the French Concession with the object that setsed to recompense them for the loss they sustained. A document was drawn up, under which shipments in any of Messrs.

The addition of a new story to the Family Hotel is undoubtedly a great improvement; it is now the largest hotel at Chefoo, and families visiting this bathing place for the summer will certainly enjoy their stay in it, as they will find It pleasant and comfortable in every respect
During winter the Eeach Hotel is the most frequented on account of its situation in the set- tlement its billiard room is then the meeting place of captains of sailing vessels and people Connected with shipping.
