grades are suffering severely from the fall in the value of allver, and there are also loud complaints that the sufferings would not be so keenly felt were the means of promotion more clearly defined than hitherto. We can quite understand that Sir ROBERT HART's bands are fled, as he indicated to his recent reply to the ably written memorial of his Staff, and that he is reluctant to increase the great bur- dens of the State, but he had no option when the memorial was presented and in common fairness to the petitioners he passed it on to the Tsungli Yamen, where it will be pigeon-holed sine dir unless the Carps Diplomatique bring pressure to bear on the subject through the proper channels. There would seem (as our correspondent "Bordholder"" points out in the lengthy letter published in another column) to be good reason for the Corps Diplomatique taking up this question, for It is not a purely Chinese question-a question between Chinese employers and their obedient humble servants. All the great Powers are now concerned, some of them greatly concerned, in the stability of the Customs Service, for It is their security for large sums of money advanced to China In the hour of need. In recent years some of the ablest men in the Service threw it up in disgust, both on account of loss in exchange and the Irregularity and uncertainty of promotion. Now, we must not be understood to advo- cate any interference with Sir ROBERT
