NOTES AND COMMENTS,
We have to acknowledge the receipt of the Chinese Customs Garette for the April-June quarter of the year, which shows a falling off-In revenue of Tis. 596,072 as compared with the same quarter of last year when it amounted to Tls. 5,025,254 The falling off in trade has been felt chiefly at Shanghal, the revenue there amounting to Tis. 1,346.785 as compared with Tis. 1,918,950 collected during the same quarter of last year, or decline of nearly Tls. 600,000. Looking through the figures to discover in what branches of trade the shrinkage has chiefly occurred, we find that the following Captain Sincock, will be despatched for the above comparativa table throws some light on

In speaking of the matter Superintendent Rutherford said
It is true we have had offers to take our entire plant to Japan, but as yet we baya not decided to accept them. When this mill wan started the McKinley tariff was in vogue and we made a good living for our 300 employees and left a good margin for the owners, but since Mr. Wilson and bis cellosgues interfered with national legislation it has been only with the mast rigid economy that we could run at all, and now the Board of State Prison Directors, not satisfied with running the grain bag industry, have in contemplation the addition of soulber plant to manufacture ora bags, cotton' rape and twine.

JAPANESE VIEWS ON THE FAR EASTERN QUESTION.
The Talya of latest data contains two articles on the Oriental Question, one by Mr. Olshi Masami, formerly Japanese Minister to Korea, and the other by Mr. Inagaki Manjiro, suther of Japan and the Pacific." Mr. Clahi advocates
Anglo-Japanese sillance, and in the présent. caray expounds his views tera folly than be has yet attempted. He commences with the consideration of Japan's position in Kares. The Korean question, he says, resolves fiself into a
01 Russian question. It la not with Korea but with Russia that Japan has to settle the so-called Korean problem. Collision with the Northern Power is inevitable if Japan wants to maintain her position in the peolasalar kingdom. And ought she to preserve her faflaence there? By all means, answers the wilter. Her interest as well as her honour forbid her to paring any other course with regard to Korea. As to con Japan har lavested a large amount of money la the peninsula, the latest instance belog the advance of 3 mallion yen to the Government of the bulk of the foreign community in Kores, that country; secondly, that the Japanese form whereas not a single Russian merchant is to be found in the whole kingdom; thirdly, that Kores is the natural bulwark of peacs in the Sea of Japan; fourthly, that the loss of Kores would endanger the western comats of Japan and fifthly, that the abandonment of Korca would seriously toterfere with the feture expansion of

FOOCHOW, August 22nd. 5.35.p.m. This morning a howling mob surrounded an American Mission school and chapel situated eight miles outside the city of ochow. They raised the cry "exter- minate the foreign devils!" and thereupon set to work to wreck the buildings, which they looted and utterly destroyed.
Four native Christians were lightly wound as they made their escape.
No Europeans or Americans were hurt, as they were fortunately not in the school

A DIRD'S-EYE VIEW OF THE SITUATION OBTAINED THROUGH FRENCH SPECTACLES.
