OUR LONDON LETTER.
(From Our Own Correspondent)
LONDON, January 3rd,
THE NEW YEAN, - heralded by usual observatives, religious and social, opened in must utiseusonable weather.' In point of temperature, it night more easily be September or early October than January, and this notwithstanding, or perhaps in despite of, prophets who promised us a "winter.of ex- ceptional severity The mildness in conjunction with much rain, may probably account for the serious increase in the smallpox epidemic, which has in the last two weeks attained a somewhat - alarming, figure.
medical The authorities now give it as their opinion, that the disease will not be stamped out for another four or five months. helalively to the whole population of London, the number of cases is still trifling, but these have been considerably over a thousand patients through the hospitals, and the fact is the more disquieting that the type of small-pox is virtdent,
Watchaight services were practically univer sal at the various places of worship, on the evening of the 31st, and a considerable number of Anglican Churches 'tofled a bell for five minules midnight, though this custom is begining to die out, especially in larg towns. In those parts where colchme. do foregather Hogmanay" and "Firs Footing" were observed, with customar honours. The Scotush Clans Association Bal at Holborn Restaurant was generally voted the best entertainment of its kind given by that severely nontheter company for some years past.
At the Pro-Cuhedral, Untury, and other Roman Catholic Churches, midnight mass was celebrated for inaumeuse congregations; so the great metropolis maintained ber habit of pro- viding for the needs of all nationaliues, creed. and persuasio. 8, as it is het proud boost to always do. At Corleston a somewhat unusum! admixture of Church and Stage was invoked for the occasion. At the conclusion of the prayers of penitence, just before the buur o twelve boomed out from the clocks of the dit trict, Mrs. Brown-Poster, the well-known at tress, stepped out on to the chancel steps and there recited Tennyson's "king out Wild Bells." With the brilliantly lighted Altar and the white vested clergy and choir behind her, was distinctly dramatic; whether it was quite in keeping with the occasion, and the sacred building, is of course another mat- ter and one upon which opinions will differ,

Considerable scepticism exists in England as to the truth of the statements circulated, in Germany, respecting.

Men who have lived in China, for the most part adopt the attitude that there is no reason why gold, or indeed any other valuable, should not exist China, though the mere statement of Russin that lund is being leased solely for mining purposes, by no means establishes the dis overy as an actual fact.

The health of the German Crown Prince has given rise to many alarmist rumours in the British and Con- tinental Press, but a court official, speaking in his private capacity to English friends a week or so ago, explained thatthe whole trouble arises out of putting a man's work on a boy's shouldera. in The Crown Prince is only nineteen, yet addition to his University ourse, he is going throgh his military training, and receiving also a spețial education in statecraft to ât him for the responsibilities of his exalted position decline the invitation of the Tsung-R-Yamen
