A very interesting story of how Lai Chi- Chio, the well-known meichaut, bout whom so much has been written of late, tiok moto himself a wife, was related at the Magistracy, this afternoon, during the perjury trial which was adjourned from yesterday,
Readers will recollect that at yesterday's bearing Mr. Morrell, who appeared for the defendantChip Chun-raised several poisia in connection with the case and asked for his client's release on the ground that the docu-
ment on which defendant was alleged to have committed the prijury was not inken by the Court translator, but by an interpreter. Also that the charge against the defendant did not come under the common law, or under the statute, as the latter did not apply to the Colony.
And in order to clear up these points the Court adjourned until today, when Mr. Bowley (the Crown, Solicitor) amended the we gathered that charge,, foin which delcadant committed perjury when he swore that Lai Chi Chin and his family had left their residence for Canton, when, as a mal- ter of fact, they had not.. Mr. Bowley then proceeded to show that the charge did come under the common law and quoted authorities at some length in support of his contention. Mr. Morrell argued that the Crown Solicitor was wrong, but the Magistrate (Mr. Gompertz) over- ruled him, and ordered ille case to proceed.

On the occasion of the recent visit of H.M.8. Alacrity, the Admiral's despatch boat, to Cantos, au incident occurred which had its humorous side, although it may not be appre ciated by the gallant tars who were the sport. of the ribald. Indeed, it is perfectly safe to say that in recounting the story the narrator would be wise to do so in the absence of any of the Alacri's crew. The Alacrity, with Admiral Sir A. W. Mooie on board, had left Canton for Hongkong and was well on the way to this port, when, one of the river. boats was sighted making great head-way in pursuit, Accompanied by a torpedo boat, the Alacrity was making easy progress down the Pearl Kiver, headless of competitors, but the river steamboat, incited upparently by the enthusiasm of the Chinese passengers, came to the cop clusion that the Alacrity was bent on making- the pace to Hongkong. Now, it should be underflood that one of His Majesty's | yamen, for having clie men-of-war, is extremely supercilious when Д passenger bantis in question, and would doubtless consider it infra dige to enter into a race competition. More over, the officers knowing their strength in energencies, and regardless of anything, but official orders, are not compelled by force of circumstances or the exigencies of trade to make sport in order to show what their ve sel can do. But it is otherwise with a river boal.
