Why should the Colony spend thousands of dollars a year to teach the Chinese their own language? Dr. Waiour at the beginning of his report admits that what the Chinese come to his school for is to learn English, as a pure matter of business; and he must know that what we maintain the place for is to get English speaking clerks, equally as a matter of business. In their own domestic circles the Chinese cannot fall to acquire a sufficient knowledgeofthe native language. And we do especially protest against the suggestion to substitute Chinese for English teachers -unless he does the thing thoroughly, and puts a pare-bred mandarin Into the head master's chair.
