The weak point of the organisation is that it appears to have no head or leader, unless it be some village Hampden, away in the wilds of Hunan, some obscure country gentleman, of the literati, probably, whe directs the movement generally from a distance, and gives them the cue, while he keeps behind the scenes. The present Viceroy might have been the chief of the organization, but like holders of office all the world over, be is temporarily on the side on which his bread fs buttered, and his Interests ! are opposed to the Kolao-hwel, who represent the great body of "Have Nots" in China. The military element furnishes its chief supporters and the immense number of pensioned generals | and officers who are kept hanging on to the tail of the Government by a ridiculously small monthly stipend, and who are kept alive, like Mr. Micawber, mainly by the hopes of some thing turning up, which will necessitate the Government requisitioning their services in some profitable, but not necessarily multary field. These gentry, whose capacity for mischief and tofluence through their relatives in various parts of the empire must be considerable, have been corned into implacable foes by the Viceroys Llu at Nanking, and Chang at Wuchang, dismissing them and stopping their pay roll, and make the trouble and cause the ramifications of the Kola- hwel to stretch out with such strength through at least five provinces.

THE HONGKONG TELEGRAPH, THURSDAY, JUNE 25, 1891.
Our sea port Chemulpo has been somewhat neglected by men-of-war of late; since the 7th of May, when the Chinese transport Afelyween left, only the Japanese gun-boat Chodai kan bas been In port, and the yarn about Li Hung-chang flylag visit with the united Peiyang paying as and Nanyang squadrons is all bosh. He had better mind his own business.
Os the 3rd fast, the French cruiser Willars arrived, and the Italian war ship Volturwe; the latter with the Minister, Cavallere Pansa, and Signora Pansa, on board, and the treaty con- cluded with Korea by Count di Luca will now he ratified; the distinguished party arrived in Soul on the 4th inst.
During my last stay in Chemulpe I observed the fine Roman Catholic Mission bulidings in Koreatown progressing rapidly towards comple- tion.
Dr. Landi's dispensary (of Bishop Corfe's Mission) is also progressing favourably be has his hands pretty full with native patients, among whom he has become wonderfully popular in a remarkably short time; he has become quite an adept in the native language already, and it would appear there is bright future before the Right Reverend Bishop's Mission. A 'new arrival wishing to buy a plece of land to Chemulpo, when I was there last, was naked the modest sum of four hundred Mexicans for a strip in the so-called D. lots, to build a house upon, which the owner himself had bought, a couple of years ago, for $86.
to the north-west and south east of Newchwang and Moukden, as far as the borders of Korea and Kirin. The district was surveyed last year by Messrs. Kinder and Company on behalf of the Kalping Mining Company, and the working of the mineral deposits has been sanctioned by an Imperial Decree, dated October 30th, 1890, and by an Admiralty order of the same date. This decree and order were addressed to Messes Sim and Pih, who, on November 28th last year, made an agreement with British firm Lendon to work the mines. Some of them have been already tapped, notably that which supplies the Kirin Arsenal with comis, but the methods employed are the most primitive is css among the natives, and consequently the output is not at all adequate with the tremendous resources of the mice. But the London firm are sending out expert workers, and when they come we vaný expect to see very different fesults, for the region simply abounds in coal and petroleum.
Arrangements for the laying of a line by the Tientsin Railway Company from Liu Hall to Shan-bal-kwan are not yet completed, although the company applied for tenders last year. The return of H.E. LI In this connection is anxiously looked for, as it is valuable la pushing on the work-Mercury,

OF THE In all directions, like mushrooms overight, the sons and daughters of bonny Dal Nippon continuing to pour foto the country by every steamer, and even by schooners and junks. I hear there have been riots in the place, but no doubt your Chemulpo correspondent has informed you of them already. They are of a purely local character. A family quarrel years. occurred between the Japanese cargo people and the native coolles; but this much is cartalo, the overweening treatment which some of the Japs accord the natives is downright bad, and may in due course of time lead to worse consequences than the present, which has so far resulted only in a general strike of the coolles. There is too much of the rowdy element from Nagasaki, Trusima and Fusan in the Cheraulpo Japanese community, which is anything but conducive to the peace of the port, and the Consul had better keep the objectionable characters well in hand, Instead of dealing too leniently with them, or more serious trouble may ensue before long,
There are persistent rumours here that one or more steamers are building in Shanghal for our 1iver traffic. It is about time they were coming; there is room and profitable employment for several of them, If suitably bullt.
Our boatmen had been cross the river at nil scared, or bribed, and nothing would induce them to leave the quiet place we were anchored in on any such errand. Au to getting another boat the sathorities laughed at the very idea. securing us that no one there would risk life and property in such a venture. A bost, notwith- standing, was placed at curdisposal, and that in such a remarkable way as convinced us it was the Master's will that we should see this thing through.. Our men were ashore endeavouring to engage a boat of any kind, but the attempt appeared to be hopleless, for all had been warned officially to have nothing to do with us, when they met with an old Christian who had several times tried to pay us visit, but had been turned back-es all non-official visitors always were at Changsha-by the numerous guards who were watching us. His same was Li, a bostman connected with the I.M.S., and known to us by report, Happening to be there on business, and knowing the difficulty we were in, he wished to tell us that his boat was at our service. Before the cocksure authorities knew what was on foot we had Li's boat alongside, and Li himself, beaming with pleasure, engaged In having our belongings transferred to it. Not a single stipulation did he make as to what we might or might not do with his boat, nor as to what he would receive for the service; and yet, like a certain poor widow we read of, he seemed to be casting away "all the living that he had." By the hour appointed we were ready, I shall never forget the scene. It was a brilliant sunry morning, with a brisk cool breese blowing un the river. The whole frontage above and below the great matou had been cleared of the ordinary bosts, and a row of gunboats, with here and there a still larger craft fall of officials, occupied their places. The sloping bank was packed fall of a dense crowd of human beings; there were thousands, and thousands of them. The silk dresses of the students, the gay unlionns and banners of the soldiers and the sunlight fishing from their weapons, afforded a play of colour wonderful to behold. Now at last Chang- sha was about to receive the gospel, and that is what is supposed to be the grand old orthodox fashion. The Bible was about to be blown into L by the cannon's mouth, and hammered home with convincing blows of long-bundled cleavers, broad-toed tridents, and other slaughtering tools peculiar to the Chinese. No doubt the hearts of the missionaries were palpitating with very joy at the sight of such an abundant and unexpected. answer to many earnest prayers. Not so. The missionaries were as grieved as they could be over this display for which their share of the responsiblity was simply the being there, and had It not seemed their duty to remain they would gladly have allowed the grand performance to fall ibrough for want of the principal actors. We were at anchor y the other side of the river right opposite, pad the hour arranged for crossing was ten o'clock. Punctually to a mlaste Li's anchor was lifted, the sail raised, and over we went, accompanied by our four escorting gunboats. As we drew near we heard a yelling such as it falls to the lot of few to hear, a grand howl of execration from ten thousand throats of fellow men. It sounded like something unearthly. When we came within range down came the missiles. stones, bricks, broken implements, and domestic atensils; everything throwable in fact. Wo were under this shower about as long as one might count twenty, and ther the performance had gone as far as it was intended it should. We were bundled into the escorting boats alongside, and carried out of range in a moment, Old Li never let go the rudder, but sailed his boat out after us, as he had sailed her in, as calmly as if such showers were a matter of daily experience with him. There was nothing more to be done or said, so v'e willagly left one of the grandest theatrical entertainments over got up at Changsha anyhow. The scenery. was all real, and on a colossal scale.
