Thus cicarances were elected at as much as, in some cases, double the surveyors' allowances. Chinese dealers in this way secured bargains which, on the other hand, suited importers also who preferred to realize at known lossus than incur unknown risks, as it was jared that by lapse of time the damaged yarn might be further deteriorated and tiefr sale able value correspondingly reduced. The acuteness of the situation was aggravated by the apathy of country buyers, who having large stocks in hand declined to purchase at dealers, finding bankruptcy staring them in the prevailing high rate.

and is a work which should be on the table of every director of a public company as well as of heads of mercantile offices, while it will also prove of great use to the legal fraternity gener ally. When in 1902 a revised edition of the statute laws of the, Colony was compiled by Sir John Carrington, Kt., C.M.G., a former Chief Justice of Hongkong, no Ordinance re ceived more careful attention and revision at the bands of the learned compiler than the Com. panies Ordinances from 1865 to 1899, which he consolidated into ore comprehensive Ordinance thus adding considerably to the facilities for reference on any point of the companies law as existing to this Colony to day. In his work of compilation Sir John Carrington had no less than nine Ordinances to reduce into one, while still retaining all the unrepealad, or unamended

very old man, that he will be unable to rule and administer the affairs of those provinces
satisfactorily and peacefully. He therefore prays that he be allowed to setire from the public service. It is rumoured that after this appointmeal was made, the Throne learned that it was unacceptable to the people of the two provinces of the viceroyalty to which ha was nominated, he being a pirrona non grata with them, and therefore the Throne asked H. E. Tang for his resignation.
