NOTES AND COMMENTS. !
Nothing could have been better thin the Governor's address to the Commites of the Tung Wah Hospital. It was carefully studied and worked out, It was fordbly and clearly expressed, and for the rst time placed the Tung Wah in its priper position. We sincerely hope that the Government in all it dealings with hat Institution In the future will maintain the same attitude and express-itself with the same dignity and moderation.
J
The Governor was not so happy In his references to the Chinese public meeting and to the speeches made there by Mesra, Ho Axer and Ho Tuno, and he was very unwise in using threatening language to which he would have very considerible difficulty in giving effect. There should be no threatening with any native rsco, unless action is seriously intended and will certainly follow.

Has your miserten been a success and do yon anticipate an early improvement in the trade between the colony you represent and Japan?
Yes, in every way.

Did I understand you to say that.the Japanese #re intending to go in more largely for spinning? Yes, there are already four woolen factories in existence, and I understand others are to be established at Toklo, Kioto and Osaka, and I belleva that the Japanese will import wool largely from Australia In the near future, and I may say that from some of the patterns shown me the Japanese cloths are 17 of a very high quality in appearance, and are
