Desperadoes In Kwangtung.
It is incumbent upon the Go- vernment at Canton to assure due protection and security from these desperadoes to the industrions Fopulations in the country 28 much as to those who dwell in the city of Canton, and it is to be hoped that General Lung will not make the mistake of his prede cessors in the Tütuhship of leav ing the country populations to take care of themselves. This grievance has been voiced very forcibly in the past by the Pro- vincial Assembly. Until use is made of the large force which the Province maintains in putting down the piracy and brigandage which has so long been rampant
in

worthy of the name a great deal might be done in this direction; bat so long as the Cantonese CANTON Army is lacking in loyalty, disoi- pline and esprit de cors to the degree revealed during the past fortnight, the task of administer- ing the Government of Kwang-. ung is not ous to be envied by any man. Canton at the present m meat can only be regarded as CHI N'A squiescent volcano. There may be
an eruption at any moment.

The Silver Position. Speaking of the millions ster- ling of silver said to be held in Peking and Shanghai, contemporary says that these : amounts "cannot be regarded as speculative hut should rather be described as the gigantic and unremunerative savings bank of the moneyed classes." Being tied up they can exercise no effect upon the general market. What- ever happens in the realm of silver the layman hopes that we shall experience no more of those violent daily fluctuations in exchange for some time to come, until, at least, China has got upon her legs again..

Canton, so much so, indeed, that, as will be seen from our news columns to-day, the new Com- mander of the Kwantung troops has been constrained to telegraph a kind of protest to Hongkong, while at the same time assuring all that the condition of affairs in the "City of Rame" in practically quiet and that only a few disbanded soldiers are giving: trouble. It would seem, there- fore, that General Lung will soon enter upon his Governorship of the City under conditious as favourable as might be expected after so much trouble and anxiety of the past two months."
