The gravest fault that people find with the Governor is that he will do everything himself, will look after it himself and set it going. This leads to expensive mistakes bere and there, and to lending an ear to bad counsellors, occa slobally. That they complain in South Formosa we can quite well understand, as the improve ments began in North Formoss, where the mining districts are, and where the only useful harbour for trade in all Formosa is; and as the whole island before the Governor's time kad bren quite untaxed, and everybody lived accord ing to his own sweet will (but, please note, that there is no dissatisfaction, no lawlessness, or disorder in North Formosa) the only trouble is an occasional fight with the "savager”. and as that is in out of the way places, it is of very little or.no account to the settlers bere.

WUCHANG.
(FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT,)
18th October, This city boasts of several colleges for the encouragement of learning. One of these, the Sin Soo Yuen, was founded during the King in Set Li Hanchang by Chang Chih- tung, who was then Literary Chancellor of the province which he now rules. Its funds, as in all such cases, both for building and endowment, were drawn from public subscription. The site chosen is the Arcopagus of Wuchang, the origin of whose name is variously ascribed to bonoar of the planet Mars or the memory of a meteor in the dim past. Certain it is that, situated in one of the lowest parts ofthe city between two lotus ponds, Its only resemblance to its famous namesake is the readiness of its inhabitants to hear or to tell some new thing. During some score of years this college has carried out its most useful purpose. Its students are selected from the most promising B. A's, Șiu T'ini, attracting the notice of the Chancellor during his tours of examination throughout Hupeh. Some scores of them have rooms assigned to them within the college walle; others, living in their own homes, join with the resident scholars in monthly examinations. The speciality of this college is that its examinations are not conducted in the ordinary en Cheng or literary essay, nor in the poem, but in the more miscellaneous fields of history, geography, philosophy, or science alforded by the third section of the Syllabus for the Provincial Degreo. A largo library, con- taining, amongst others, many scientific books, was founded by Li Han-chang, and its treasures are accessible to the members of the college. At this and the Kiang Han Shu Yuen, the other great college within the city, prizes are offered according to fixed scales of success at each Examination. Another examination is also held each month at which beside the regular premium special prizes are offered by all the leading officials in turn. Thus poor graduates of merit may make a yearly addition to their incoraes of Any sum up to something like a hundred taels, Apart from the question of the value of the studies, such a system ofibe constant testing and encouragement of merit, and the constant contact of talent with the notice of the officials in admirable, and contraste very favourably with the old system of life-fellowships la the English universities which generally had no other result than mental vegetation and perpetua? bachelorhood.
certain number of the resident scholarships In the College first named have been for some yeart assigned for skill in mathematics, and there has been a more or less regular system of examinations in those studies.
|
Anonymous placids have been posted in Tarious parts of the settlement announcing that on the 5th of the 10th moon, 26th November, a large number of soldiers from the Hsiao Ch'ang and Ma Ch'ang Camps will demolish the English foreigners. They will then proceed ts. Peking and take possesilon of the capital, depose the Emperor, and place a man who is named on the placard on the Throne. These bombastic sputterlags are unpleasant to the ear, but we need hardly add are not taken seriously by the authorities, who are inclined to look upon the matter as a hoax, or at most as a covert attempt to ruin the men named in the placard; these men, we understand, have already been examined, but dismissed as innocent of complicity in the affair.
Although there is no anticipation of any real danger, thesa ebullitions of discontent should never be passed by quite unheeded. Their impudent publication in prominent places shows, at least, contempt for the police and the powers that be. Precautionary measurer, when un- ostentatiously made, do no harm, and we have no doubt our local authorities are fully on the alert. Disaffection is said to be rife in this province, and now that the pinch of famine and cold is beginning to be felt it behoves the Chinese authorities to remember that hungry men are angry men. The essential difference between meum and tuum is not so obvious to the destitute as to the well fed.
Just before going to press we have ascertained that the man Chu, whose signature is appended to the notice, knows nothing of the affair; he maintains it to be the work of an enemy who has twice within the present year tried to involve, him in trouble in a similar way. It is probably more than a coincidence that the man whom Mr. Chu suspects is also the notorious enemy of another gentleman-Mr. Pu-who is also men- Honed in the placard. The Chinese authorities have warrants out for the arrest of the suspected man, who is a well-known pettifogger of the Dodson and Fogg type. It is evident from the above that petty spite and private enmity are a possible and probable explanation of the whole incideal-Chinese Times,

Catholic Bishop, Monsiegneur Sarthon, has arrived and taken up his'quarters at the Pei-tang.
The health of the Seventh Prince continues to improve, and he is able to transect a little burlaers.
There were lately two Anglican bishops together in Peking, Bishop Korfe, of the S. P. G. in Korea, having come up on a visit to Bishop Scott. The latter has gone'on a journey into the Interior.
Peking is at present a perfect sea of dust, deep and soll. When stined by traffic or wind the whole atmosphere is filled with a dense cloud which is rarely allowed to settle; a rainy day would be a boon.
The great pallow near the Customs' facing the south-east angle of the 'Imperial City Wall has been rebuilt and decorated according to the original design. No one seems to know why, nor at what cost, this has been done, but the
rarity of repairs in Peking leads a certain importance to the work. The cost is believed to be heavy.
THE MARINE HOTEL is NOW OPEN.
THIS FIRST CLASS HOTEL is situated on the Prava West, opposite the Old P. & O. Wharf and is newly built after the designs of the Largest European Hotels the BEDROOMS, BATH-ROOMS, &c., are commodious, well Ventilated and well Furnished, and are suitable for Single or Married Persons. The DINING ROOM is large and looks on the Harbour. The TABLE D'HOTE will be supplied with the best the market can provide. The BAR and BILLIARD ROOMS are on the Ground Floor, and are fitted up in superior style. ENGLISH and AMERICAN TABLES.
WINES and LIQUORS of the best qualities and Brands only will be supplied. The Undersigned therefore begs the patronage of the Public, hoping to give every satisfaction.

The walls of the city have been undermined and in several places the outer, facing of brick has slipped away from its earth backing, and the debris has in one place entirelyHE Steamship obstructed the roadway, Among other injuries the walls of the Hall of the Classics attached to the Confucian Temple have had large sections washed out of them, exposing the famous stone tablets within.
