EVERYONE must deplore that an Institution of such usefulness as the Canton Medical Mission Hospital should have suffered the loss of its funds and be left stranded by the collapse of the old established firm of Russel & Co., which firm, took a leading part in the creation of the Hospital, and in active, interest in its success. I we recollect correctly the Medical Mission Hospital at Canton was established under the superintendence of Dr. Parex Panxor in 1835, succeeding a temporary oneformed earlier in the century, at Macao, under Doctors MORRISON and SAMUEL BROWN, Whatever difference of opinion there may be in regard to the Missionary question, there can be none in regard to the benefit which Medical Missions confer on the Chinese generally.

The Prince's speech ran somewhat thus in reality, although the papers have paraphrased it very freely. I can well remember that less than a year ago I had the high privilege of presiding at a meeting at Tranby Croft. The meeting was not a very large one, and was composed of a very mixed lot. Amongst others present on the occasion, I remember were Gentral W. Owen Williams, young Mr. Wilson, and others, one of whom has since, I regret to say, passed away. As for myself personally, I feel proud to think that after racing and dining, the Greenes. and Wilsons used to attend my baccarat lectures, and every one will testify to the 'admirable and lucid manner in which I delivered those lectures to those who were mere boys.

The observance of Sunday as a day of rest has its origin in the Jewish Sabbat, an institution of divine direction.
