From a Dative who professes to be well informed on the subject, we learn that there are. no fewer than 1860 opium dens in the province, and that the number of them is gradually but surely in reasing. During the prosperous times, the sons of the well-to-do indulged in the vice, and now that they have houses of their own, one of the apartments is filled up as an opium asking room, and they invite their friends to come and smoke a pipe with them. In this | WAY the Habit has extended amongst this particular clais. But the greatest increase, our Informant states, is among the artisans and others in regular employment, who live on a minimum of food and spend what should provide them with a proper amount of nourishment, at the opium dens. This is con- firmed from other sources ol information, with the addition that those who de set ge from bad to worse are quite the exception. These men lose their situations, then sell everything they am pissesssed of, and finally steal to satisfy their craving for the pipe.-Ecko.

What action the Viceroy will take is not yet down, but from what he has already dona (bal ni know of, it is pretty certain that there need be no es expected from him. The fonds above mentioned were destined for Say Ling sien in the Prefecture of Tung Chuas, which lies to the north-east of Chentou, and is reached from Chungking by boat up the small river. There is not, nor never was, any lakin collected there an goods that paid the tax en rests and there are only two barriers between Chungking and that place, as above stated-ons near Chungking and the other at HoChou, The an uns collected wine one thousand dark at the first, and one thousand als hundred at the second, per bals, being somewhit in excess of the half- duly, so that it would be a little cheaper to use the transit pass, and also more convenient, 21 money would not have to be sent along with the golds to pay the lekis.
What has the Viceroy done in the matter? That is a question easily answered. He has taken prompt steps to prevent people from availing themselves of that LAST regulation in future and has entirely done away with it, and allows no half measures about it. He immediately despatched an official to Suy Lin and opened a new office for the sole purpose of collecting what they chose to term Zota lekin (FROM OUR OWN CORRISPONDENT.)

It is to matter of surprisa that such mecting should have taken pisce. The continuous fall la prices this sesson, following a corresponding course of the market last season, was enough to create alarm in the hearts of the most phlegmatic of the teamen, and at last it seems to have aroused them to the necessity of king combined action for the protection of their interests. According to the report of the meeting as it reaches us, two thirds of the hous-s trading in this focality, Foke-On, are retiring from the business altogether. The first effect of this will be reduced competition amongst the inc unity buyers, and, as there is no reason to suppose the yield will be less than last year, these buyers by combining will have It all there awnw y, and they will be able to bay cheaper then they have ever done before. The question then are, how far foreign merchants will beng 6t by b?
