conscientious work achieved by this Saul among the missionaries during a busy life- time spent in various parts of China, but no one will deny that this brilliant page of arduous service, more pr. less useful, is sadly disfigured by several episodes where- in the all hatred and uncharitableness of the priest over-ride the kindly heart, genial disposition, and common sense of the man. It is almost certain that no more accomplished preacher than Dr. BURDON ever filled the pulpit of St. John's Cathedral; it is a grave question whether his oratorical, abilities have been even approached by any divine that has ever visited the Far East. Is it not, therefore, greatly to be deplored that minister of the gospel, the pos- sessor of such brilliant powers, and capable of exerting an almost unbounded influence, should have rendered these THE SHANGHAI PHARMACY, great gifts and his splendid opportunities almost nugatory by an overbearing and offensive demeanour, an unreliable and unfortunate temper, and the indulgence in bigotted and narrow-minded prejudices which are more in keeping with the time of the Reformation than with the present agel

NOTICES TO CORRESPONDENTS.
It is requested that all communications rela- ting to Subscriptions, Advertisements, &c., be ad- dressed to the Manager, Hongkong Telegraph"
and not to the Edilor.
"Letters on Editorial matters to be sent to
"The
Editor" and not to individual members of the
staff.
Communications intended for publication must be accompanied by the name and address of the writers, not necessarily for publication; but as evidence of good faith.
Whilst the columns of the Hongkong Tele- graph will always be open for the fair discussion by correspondents of all questions affecting public interests, it must be distinctly understood that the Editor does not in any way hold himself res- ponsibic for opinions thus expressed.
Nobody has ever pretended to set up the community of Hongkong as paragons of morality. The history of the colony, the somewhat peculiar conditions under which social life is carried on, render the ideal of Bishop BURDON an utter impossi. bility. And his lordship would have exer-- cised a wise discretion in recognising the true position of affairs years ago, and shown commendable judgment in quietly accepting the general situation without useless comment. Dr., BURDOK's crusade against our local racing a few years ago, when he rendered himselfparticularly offen- sive by meddling in what certainly had no earthly concern with affairs clerical, will be well remembered. Of course, it was a crusade dictated by a mistaken notion
mouth.
Bishop BURDON should learn in his dealings with our frail humanity to practise that moderation, which, as his eminent colleague Bishop Hat-once-ax pressed it, is the silken string 'running through the peart chain of all virtues. Advice is seldom welcome, and those who need it most are inclined to take it the least; however, we would take the liberty of strongly advising Dr. BuRDON to abandon a practice which can only compromise his own dignity without in any way affecting the imaginary plague spot which seems to be his special ele noire. His lordship must know that in this life it is frequently difficult to say who work the most mis- chief, enemies with the worst intentions or friends with the best. JOHN KNOX may have presented a grand, spectacle when he thundered against the so-called levities of poor Mary, Queen of Scots, more than three hundred years ago, with all the bitter invective at his command; but in the present age the sturdy old reformer would simply be looked upon as a crabbed and bitterly prejudiced sectarian, who had out- lived his time. The moral is obvious.
