It is not often that the Grim Reaper pays our foreign community a visit, but of course these events must be expected occasionally. The latest victim is Mr. R. Hellwig, proprietor of Hauenstein's Hotel, who died yesterday morning and was buried in the evening.
The Municipal Council meeting was held la
deal of discussion it was attended. After decided that the whole of the properties on Kalangau be reassessed with a view to ascertain- ing what sum the Imposition of per cent annual tax on it would produce. Should this amount not meet the requirements of our city fathers, other means may be adopted for raising the funds required for the reconstruction of roads, etc. The election of officers for the enguleg year brought the meeting to a close, Dr. Grazenwald, Contul fər Germany, being chosen sa Chairman. Much dis satisfaction has been expressed in certain quarters that the meeting was held in the Club fer, of course, there are many rate-payers on the island who are denied the privilege of antexing that in stitution as members and who judge it to be beneath their dignity to attend any meeting held there. Beter judgment would, perhaps, been shewa had the meeting been held in the Hotel or anywhere rather than in an exclu-
sive Club. It's bat buman to complain.
Much regret has been expressed here at the death of General Soon Kal-wba, Commander- in-Chief of the land forces in Fokien, who „expired at bis yamêa, in Chun Chow, on the 7th inst., from an attack of spoplexy.

In his diary of foth of the 8th moon, 1800, the Chinese Minister to Western Europe, Hautb, writes the following :-
*On looking up the records of our Foreign Office I came on Marquis Tiêng's despatch to the Taungli Yamén and the Viceroy of Chihlifa 1881. about a private letter to bim by Hennessy the former Governor of Hongkong, who bad wrliten to the Fope's Secretary of Foreign Affairs (Chacapina).
Its substance was that last year during an interview with Li Hung-chang they lalked about the impossibility of Chinese subjects and Christians being at peace and the desire to re-establish the method of the Emperor Kanght by which it is necessary that the Pope should send a Minister to Peking who would be treated in the same way as the Foreign Ministers, etc. This idea is very far-reaching.
"At present missionari:s, la establishing churches in all the provlaces, have incessant is wsuits with the people, and, as Roman Catho licism is protected by France the evils are still worse. Now France itself is very severe on- Roman Catholics, but when her mlizionaries abroad she professes to protect Christians, but really only uses them as a weapon lo her political schemes,
