Lu the present state of the world's affairs, it may be said that no country can be too quick in promoting enterprises essential for the on- conragemant of her productions, such as water. works, extensions of railways, or improvements in mercantile ports. be required qulay for the realisation of the above schemes, in the present circumstances of the national finances, can only be procured through the issue of loans; but these are already inflated to such large figures as to constitute one of the most important factors in the financial disturbance. - The two difficulties above alluded to can

2.-The adjustment of the various existing taxes, such as the extraordinary war tax, which has proved a serious obstacle is the path of national progress.
3.-A divizion of the present fonas isto two classes, according to their objects-is other words, whether they are intended for productive énterprises or otherwise.
(a) Unproductive lonus in their nature should first be redeemed to relieve the situation. This can be effected as long as the diminution in national expenditare yields an increase in revenue. The scheme had already been twice. resorted to by the Goversmeet, but owing to cartain defects attending the repayment of the loans, the scheme ban failed to satisfy the wishes of business-man, -
..
It is to be hoped, therefore, that in the propos ed redemption, more attention-will-be-paid to the methods of refunding the money, as woll. as to the attitude of the Government in this
respect, which has not a little, weight on the market."
(b) As for productive leans, they should be left matouched.

FROM ANTWERP, LONDON, MALTA, PORT SAID, SUEZ AND STRAITS, Consignees of Carga by the above-named vessel are hereby informed that their Goods are being landed and placed of their risk in the Hongkong and Kowloon Wharf and Godown Company's Godowns at Kowloon, where each consignmant will be sorted out Mark by Mark, and delivery can be obtained as soon as the Goods are landed..
To explain further what i have stated above, at the present time when the increase of various taxes has reached a climix, nothing. but the curtailment of expenditure can procure for the country the necessary revenue already referred to. As for loaos, the question whether ibey are far productive or unproductive under takings-has-an-important bearing on the amount of credit people are disposed to place in them. Loans for productive purposes are in a similar position to the shares of a joint stock company, the credit which 'the latter enjoy among shareholders being determined by the results of the working of the under takings, for which they are issued ·ff, the profit is small, stockholders will by no means;4 be satisfied even if they, are partially redeemed whereas if the revenue in large, the shares or loans are quite likely to enjoy a high credit Among the subscribers.
Finally it is to be hoped that measures to the abovo effect will spaadily be taken by the Go. vernment, and our national finances be thus placed on a sound basis.
11-for-the wounds inflicted on our fin- aucial circles by the business depression ab oad, no artificial operation would be of way avail; it therefore behoves us to wait with hope and patience for a period of self-recover. -111,—IMPROVEMENT IN THE MORAL STAND- ING. OF THE NATION. Speculative mania which was once prevalest throughout the country caused the disappear auce from almost every individual of the excol. lent habits of diligence and frugality, and in place thereof, extravagance and idleness made their appearance and swayed all classes of peo ple, high and low. The injuries our country. Mained therefrom from a monetary point of view, rot to mention a moral, were indeed int calculable. Since the recovery from this barm ful derangement in the early part of last year, some evileccos had beed" nofceable-which- would indicate the energies of men were being once more diverted to their former tendencies towards industry and economy. Unfortunately this sentiment was unable to resist for long the overwhelming fl sad of extravagance and waste- fulacas now permeating every rick of the nation..
Extravagance is a dream of prosparity and an evil power for a
for destruction By this power, 30-immcast amount-of-valuable-labour-and- capital is daily consumed for useless; or even. harmfat purposes. Such being the case, it is- to be ardently desired that, first of all, men's minds abould be restored to their former sober condition, which is indeed the foundation of all healthy activity. A
In conclusion, it may be hoped that any measures conduciva to the relief of the exist ing situation will speedily be taken up by the Government and thus the obstacles to the de velopment of our commerce sad industry be entirely removed, to the prosperity of the Em pite-Japan Chronioli.
