AMOP NOTES.
(FROM A CORRESPONDENT.)
Amoy, 15th August, 1891. The death of Mr. H. D. Brown, formerly Secretary of the Amoy Dock Company, and a very, old and respected citizen, took place on Thursday last and cast quite a gloom over. Amoy and Kulangru. The deceased had been ailing for some time, and notwith standing the efforts of medical skill and science he pasted quietly away. The burial took place the following morningfn the presence of a large concourse of the community. When the coffin was lowered into the grave, fè' was dis- Covered that the grave was not wide enough,
and consequently, the coffin was brought to the surface again and constables Hellvig and Wood set too, like the first and second grave-diggen in Hamiti, and very soon had the grave formed of the required dimensions to the great relief of the

A shocklog accident took place on board the Bitish barque Alice Mary, the other day in coming out of dock. It appears that in mooring, one of the coolles employed by the pilot, in some way or another got his legs entangled in a rope, and before any assistance could be rendered both his feet were talcen off, The poor fellow was taken to the Chinese Hospital and iles in a very precarious condition. A native of Singapore arrived by the S. 6. Namelow a few weeks ago to take over the Important port of vice-Principal at the Anglo. Chinese Seminary on the band adjoining the Marine Surveyor's office. A few nights after his arrival, in taking a stroll round Kalanges he was allacked by some Chinese and robbed of a $2.70 Waterbury, several Mexicans and 'some copper cash.

Bukit Jellit Besaris south of Bukit Malacca and is divided from the latter by a swamp about 100 yards across. This Hill rises to a height of about 200 feet and the lode crosses right over the summit of it. The course of the lode can be traced right over the hill (about 100
yards) by the line of old Malay workings which appear to be very extensive.
On the north end
of the bill a tunnel 8' by ;' has been driven on the east side of the lode for a distance of 200 feet (by contract at $2 per foot) We are taking one to two feet of face of lode in tunnel, the remainder in the country wick, which is a good working yellow rock (slate.) The lode, to far as tested, prospects for an average of a good cance per ton, but on starting tunnel the west side gave decidedly the best prospects. This side of lode has not yet been seen in tunnel. So soon as the present contract for 300 feet is completed, it is intention to put a series of crosscuts through the lode to thoroughly test it."
The lode has all the appearance of being very strong, but what the width of it is I cannot say go tons of ore had been saved for crushing from driving tunnel. It is my intention to eventually drive this tannal right through the hill, should the prospect warrant it. This will give a very large amount of backs to work and many thou- sand tons of ore for crushing. It is also my intention, so soon as I can do so, to pot down shaft near the entrance of tunnel, to a depth of say, 200 feet to test the lode in the deep ground. Should the lode prove payable tali dapth, it will require Batteries of several hundred head of stamps, to deal with the vast quantities of ore | there which will be available for treatment. With good machinery, and fair management, consider ere yielding's dwts, per ton should pay all costs.

By adopting this system a great saving can be effected in the cost of management at the mines, as one contral workshop store and office with one set of engineers derks, and storekeepers could attend to the whole of the mines. I do not advise selling any part of the concession at the present time, as I do not think anything like a fair value could be got for it in the present depressed state of mining. The companies in Pahang who have sold part of their concessions, are reamalgamating them to save expense of separate management Should you at any time wish to sell any part of the concession, by adapting the foregoing plan, you will have some data to go on to assess its vaine,

I should not advise that any steps be taken, to carry out these recommendations for additional machinery until you receive full particulars in reference to them from me, as they will require to be specially made for transport here.
Future motive power.-In view of the great power that will be required to develop the Raub Mine, I strongly advise that the two Rivers Biitt and Sempan be utilized for that purpose.
