Kwahgtung and Hongkong Coin.
· Wa obanrve that Canton Cors respondent of the N. C. Daily News, writing on the perer money difficulty in the Provizon of Kwangtung, remarks that jus draising off of a huge quantity of Hongkong ten cant pieces, con sequent upon the increased value of this coin in Hongkong, bes been one of the things which has. complicated matters. The Cor respondent believes that every month about $500,000 worth of Hongkong coins find their book to Hongkong from the mainland, i which are then, he says, shipped off home to England. What becomes of them does not affect the case. The fact in that the outflow of all these ten-cent pieces. has made thinge even more com- plicated." It is not very obvious how the return of Hongkong subsidiary coin to the Colony: from Kwanglung can complicate the question of the note issue of that Province, when the circum stances are fully considered. It' is surely incorrect in the first, place to say that $500,000 worth of Hongkong coins, returned from Kwangtung, are being shipped to: England every much to be demonetised. The Colony can scarcely afford to de...unstiss at that rate.

Smouldering Fires.
The death sentence in Kwang- tung appears to be but lightly regarded by the present Gov ernor General, whose polioy of "the iron fil" eeeme, unhappi ly, to be considered best for the subjection of a province notorious for its lawless and rebellious? tendencies. There is, of course, the danger of reaping the whirl- wind and the administration of this storm centre of the South exists merely from day to day. Yet each round of the clock is marked by arrests, arraignments, and the unceremonious hurrying of hapless mortals into the next world. The semblance of a trial. e, in many cases, dispensed with No wonder that the air of Hong- kong finds favour with so
so many Chinese who are only too glad to forsake the unwholesome ailm aphere of their own cities of un- Yeat for the safety of residence on an island governed by the British !

Oplum in Haloan,
The Officer in command of the forces in Hainan, Chen Wing
TRANSPORT.ting, has sent a memorial to the Civil Administrator of Canton, in which the lattor is advised that an and has been made of hoth the sale and the use of ative grown opium throughout the island. It is pointed out that" as Bainan is an island, it is lifoolt for it to be influence by what is going on in the other provinces, her government being in entity in itself and the people mostly guided by their own traditions and customs. It seeme from the report that, broughout the island all cultivation of the poppy has been stopped, and that no native opium is imported. The only opium in use there, it appears, is imported from India, coming in through Hoihow in the way of ordinary trade. The object of Mr. Chan is to get the Oivil Administrator of Canton to send on the information to MELCHERS & Co. Peking, and at the same time, to

get the British Minister there to agree to the proposition that immediately all Indian opium be at once prohibited from entering the island, so that there may be no need to wait till the time specified by treaty, when it will be assumed that China has seased to caltitivate the poppy. and that there should thus bo a complete cutting off of all-Indian oplum for smoking purposes for the Chinese peoples
