the progress which is being made practically under their eyes. We have noted the rush of the advanced and intelligent section of the Cantonese to bring the capital of South China into line, with modern cities; we have recorded the enthusiasm with which operations in con- section with the extension of the railway system, the construction of waterworks, the bund- ing of the river, and the proposals to caný out | reproductive works generally have been taken up; and we have also called attention to the eager demand fit a higher education among Chinese setiolars. But while the native element itongkong is to some extent debarred from interfering with the administration of a Crown Colony, it can and does show the sture anxiety to fit its sens and protégés with an education which will coable them to take their place, and -an bonsumable place, among those belonging to the learned professions.
