spoilt our appetite for breakfast; even the coolies laughed at us.
We came to the conclusion that the fish most have gone to the upper waters, and determine! to follow them. We went to the upper waters, a painful journey on pack homes. We fished with flies, we fished with 1-inners, we descended to bait, but we caught no salmon trout.
On getting back, while our cuticle was slowly healing from the injuries it had received from the pack horse, we studied works on Chinese tortures, with a view to experimenting on the person of the villain who gave us the alluring details of the beautiful fishing at Sapporo Begimental Gazette.

The following is the latest report of the above named Company, :---
9, Fenchurch Avenue,
London, E.C.
30th July, 1890.
To the Shareholders of the Imuris Mines, Limited.
Dear Sirs,-Since addressing you on the oth June, the accounts received from the mines have continued very satisfactory; but owing to the harvest season, and consequent scarcity of Labour, the construction of the railway has been somewhat retarded; it is now, however, in full progress again.
From Mr. Wbyte's June reports the following extracts will prove interesting:-
"San Imuris Mine-Wiare No. 2 on 2nd level has been sunk 27 feet, the vein balding an average width of 2 feet of good milling quartz, This wine will connect with the 3rd level about the 1st of August. Drift running west on 3rd level has been driven 41 feet. The vein will average 3 feet wide throughout this distance; which at this point is very hard and solid, all gold bearing quartz of a dark reddish colour, assays from which give from $5 to $50 per ton. The vein here gives every indication of being permanent, having perfect foot and hanging walls.
"Drift running east on 3rd level has been driven 774 feet. The vein here is not so wide as the west erid; it will average 20 inches, and has the appearance and character as the ore found on the 2nd level directly above this point. The winze sinking from bottom of west tunnel has been sunk 50 fest during the month all the
THE HONGKONG TELEGRAPH, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 4, 1890.
King's Share," as the case may be, in the New River Company has been put up at auction and sold for a sum which, without exaggeration, may be considered a handsome fortune. Compara tively few persons, perhaps, know of the origin of these peculiar classes of shares, and a short sketch of their history may therefore prove of interest.
The New River Company, the first and most successful company of its kind, was founded nearly three centuries ago by a city man ol some Mr. Hugh Middleton, a
During the reigns of wealth and repute. Elizabeth and James various schemes seem to have been projected for supplying the London metropolis with water, but it was not until the year 160g that anything decisive was done in the matter when, at the invitation of Mr. Middleton, the Court of Common Council transferred the powers they had obtained, from Parilament to that gentleman, who at once began what was at the time considered a gigantic work. The object in view was to connect certain springs at Chadwell and Amwell, in Hertfordshire, with the metropolin-a distance of some twenty miles; but, owing to the many hills and valleys, nearly double that distance had to be taken for the course.
Up to the time of the date of the company's charter-the year 1619-the work is said to have cost upwards of half a million of money, and until the year 163 no dividend appears to have been paid on the shares. In fact, so unpromising was the aspect at that period of the company's affairs, that Charles I regranted to the heirs of Sir Hugh. the whole of the thirty-six shares possessed by the Crown, on condition that a yearly rent of sea was paid to the Crown. Thus it will be seen how the general public became possessed of these shares.
It may be of interest to note tere that the holder of a King's share is excluded from having any part in the management of the concern; its founder, in order to prevent the direction of its affairs from falling into the hands of courtiers, having stipulated with King James that his Majesty should take no part in the management, Tous these shares are slightly less valuable than those of the "Adventures," which give the holders a seat on the direction. Both classes of shares have, by alienation become divided into fractional parts, which, in regard to the Adventurers' shares necessitated an application being made in the year. 1711, to the Lord Chancellor to determine how the holders of these fractional shares were to be represented on

18 inches to 2 feet wide, the best ore that has been found in this part of the mine.
"Erin Mine. (A new development close to the Sheba mine, which was not included in the original concession). This mine continues to be as promising as ever. There are now about 100 tons of ore on the dump that gives an average of 33 46-100th oz. of silver per toa. We are in a position to produce 20 tons per day from this mine, and by the time the railway and reduction works are completed can produce much more. From present appearances I would say this to be the most valuable mine is the group, and the railway will pass within 300 feet of it."
to the effect that the possessors of two or more fractional parts of a share were empowered to jointly nominate one of their number for election to the Board.
To give an idea of the enormous value to which these shares have risen, it may be stated that in the year 1800 one was sold for £14,000; in in 1811 the price obtained was £17,000; 1878, £91,000, and at the close of last year the eighth part of a share sold for a sum at the enormous rate of £100,000 per share, an amount which in years to come is not unlikely to be exceeded, owing to the reversions of a large pro- puty which will accrue to the company, and so still further enhance the value of these historical

The clannishness of the Chinese is a strong feature of their life. The family is the sociai unit. But it is not the single family. It is the solid family, not in its present ilfe alone, but reaching back to its very beginning. This is the clan. The social position of the Con- facian family is frequently brought to the public notice. The family of Mencius

generasion in direct descent from the Teacher. My friend visited the family head- quarters some years since as the deputy of his village to secure the arbitration of the great Master of the tribe, This warthy dispenses THE largess on a grand scale. He receives a bounty from the Imperial Treasury. It is not so Iarge or so certain, as that of the still greater Duke Kung. Any of the Mang family from any part of the Empire coming thither to pay his respects is suitably entertained. There Is a large caravansery capable of holding at least a hundred guests. All who gain access to this are supported or entertained free of charge. If a modest man, should there be any inch visiting the chief, seeing the lesser build- Inge, takes up his abode in them, he finds, to his disgust no doubt, that these are like private wards at a hospital, devoted to paying patients. Only those whe bill themselves at the large hostelry are given free entertainment. In like manner with the Dake Kung, the Mencian chief also disposes of literary honours. He has ya of these which he may give to selected members of the widely scattered clan. full list of every member of the clan by familles is kept. It is corrected every fifteen years. From these lists the annual draft of honours is made, according to the pleasure of the chief, How this draft is affected by contributions to the Chief, or by other ser: vicer well-known to the Chinese, we are not Informed. My friend is the happy recipient of one of these honours this present year.
