Our correspondent has, to our way of thinking

The Dock Company management can have no interest whatever in showing favoritism to hne line of steamers to the diandvantage of another; and funter, the deservedly high character of Mr. David Gillies in the enterprise which his ability, foresight end indomitable energy ha engineered from the lowest ebb of despondency until to-day it is' ¿ke most substantial end. #sfest limited Hability concern in Hongkong- éven although obstructed by successive directorates composed chiefly of second-class, and utterly useless mud-heads who have simply fattened on the earnings of the Company for years—should have been a sufficient reason to prevent our friend of the Oceanic from making an insinuation which, on the fice of it is absurd, Besides, the 111ortion, unsupported by say reliable evidence whatever, that Aber deen Dock exceptionally unhealthy, is mere balderdash, Aberdeen is a good deal farther away from Hongkong than Kunghema or Bam-al-po, the communication in much more uncertain and unsatisfactory-and that is where the trouble comes in. Aberdeen is much cooler than Hongkong at night, it is gulte open to the sea-breezes which almost invariably blow in after sunset during this monsoon, and since the Dock Company re- claimed the swamp to the eastward of the docks, established an excellent if somewhat limited system of affuestston, reconstructed the old-fashioned buildin, and made other useful improvements, the place leaves no soild complaint.
