In remarking on freights during the past year the General Managers ray
"Though the season opened fairly well, the result of the latter portion was most unsatis- factory and unprofitable, in a great measure consequent upon the Native Authorities having prohibited the export of Rice from Shanghal, which naturally curtailed frights on both the Northern and Southern lines In October and November, when the trade to Tientsin is usually very brisk, and there is a great deal of Rice and Plece Goods offering, we found great difficulty in landing the steamers. In fact, had it not been for a fairly good Passenger Traffic, the earnings would have been far below the average, On the Foochow line there was a falling off in cargo, and on the other Southern lines cargo was unusually scarce from May to the end of the year, and sometimes it was difficult to get an ordinary leading for the steamers running between Shanghai and Canton.
"On the Yangtsze line, however, the trade shows an increase rover 1888, the principal feature of expansion being the Passage traffic, which increases rapidly whenever a reduction in fares takes place. The opposition by small steamers and lorchas continued throughout the year, Rates of passage money for Chinese were lowered to meet their opposition. Rates of freight on some kinds of cargo were also reduced; but we think the action interfered to a greater extent with the larchas than with the small steamers," In accordance with the Articles of Association, two Directors, Mr. James MacAndrew and Mr. William Keswick, retire from the Board, and being eligible they offer themselves for re-elec tion.
THE BISHOP'S BOATRACE STORY,
"No," said the Bishop, "I have not been to the boat-race for twenty-five years, had an adventure then which gave me a distaste for it." "What was that, sir ?" asked Blaydes, of Brasenose. Blaydes was always inquisitive and irrepressible. He used to say that if he could get the Bishop to tell a fairly long story after dinner, we (the candidates for deacon's orders, who were sitting at the fest of the episcopal Gamaliel in preparation for our "Bishop's exam.") had a chance of an extra glass of port in addition to the one which the unwritten law of the Palace seemed to prescribe.
'His lordship's domestic chaplain moved un- easily in his chair. Blaydes of Brascnose, was a pupil who gave him some anxiety, and Blardes's prospects of ordination were dependent entirely on his willingness to burn the midnight oil with assiduity.
The Bishop, however, was smiling softly to himself. It was not anything so very exciting," be said; "but it might have been awkward,"
We were all attention as the Bishop crossed bis legs, smoothed down his apron, and began "Twenty-five years ago I was an undermaster at Hugborough College, whence, as you knów, I was afterwards transplanted to the head- mastership of—. Six of un junior masters went to that boat-sace together, and very much- we enjoyed ourselves on the way. I remember, travelled up to King's Cross, some card
. Rs
sharpers got in and began to do what I believe
is called the three-card trick.
"Or the three broads." Interjected Blaydes. "Were you taken in, sir ?"
The Bishop slightly raised his eyebrows and continued: "We paid very little attention to them, except that one of us, Smithson, very nearly came to blows with one of them. Smith son was a great "oar" in my time at Cambridge, rowed No. 4 in the University crew, and "stroked" bis college boat at the head of the river. He was the man who once, silaze the chapisin bargee by him "-here coughed" but I do not think I need tell you what Smithson said to the barges. He is now one of the most forcible and eloquent preachers in Yorkshire. I can quite believe it.".
The Bishop filled another glass of port, and Blaydes followed his example, triumphantly winking at the rest of us. Blaydes had no re verence in him.
The Bishop continued: "We had no fixed idea when we started as to where we should go, so when we found ourselves upon the towing path near Hammersmith Bridge, in a dense

"Your baby,' I panted. It was given me by a woman with a blue bonnet.' *-
He's mad,' said some one. Poor fellow 1" and the crowd began to fall back to let the policemen get near. Just at that moment a diversion occurred. Far above the cries of They're off, far above the din of hawkers, niggers, and cocoa-nut men, rolled the unmis takeable roar, which announces that the race bas really begun. In a moment the crowd about me had dispersed to rush towards any spots from which a glimpse of the river might be obtained.
"I was alone, with the infant still in my arms. I really believe that at that moment, while every one was watching for the boats to come through Hammersmith Bridge, I could have heaved that child into the river and no one would have seen me. The policemen, ga seeing that I was quiet and the crowd around me dispersed, had themselves turned to look at the race. To my right was a big open carriage full of ladies all standing up, some even on the seats, craning their necks towards Putney and unconscious of all but their excitement.
*No one was looking; it was the impiration and the work of a moment to step to the side of the carriage which was not towards the river and deposit "It upon the seat.. I thanked my good fortune that for a few moments it was silent; then I gave a start. I was observed A small stealthy looking youth was engaged in extracting
handsome shawl, the owner of which had abandoned it upon the oppo ite seat to that now occupied by the baby, In another moment I should have cried 'Stop, thief' but a most diabolical wink on his part reminded me that our mutual safely demanded silence. I was an accomplice in a felony. The boats were passing as we slunk away, I and my particeps.criminis, filed towards London, terror-stricken at the sight of a blue-ribboned bonnet and shrinking from the eye of policemen. I probably had not been victimized after all, and the distracted mother was then seeking me in the crowd. For weeks I dreaded to look at an advertisement; and my hope has been ever since that the stout

I had great difficulty in keeping my legs, and so had others; but I did not think of them till heard a voice at my elbow aay, Oh, my child my child I turned and locked down as well as I could. A young woman, of the small shop keeper class, I should say, was being crushed up against me, between myself and a stalwart chimney sweep. All I could see of her was her bonnet, trimmed with a large bunch of light blue ribbons and forget-me-nots, and the half mothered crying infant which she was holding as high up as she could to keep it from being crumbed to death. It is folly to bring a child to such a place i but what was I to do ?"
