General Sir Arthur Cotton's paper regards a question to which we have ourselves devoted a good deal of time and space the best means of overland com- munication with Western China. He strongly advocates the route via the Burhaopooter and Yangtse rivers, the distance between these navigable points being only 350 miles.

opinions as regards one route, although not that which meets with most public support. Dr M'Cosh, who was present, apoke strongly in favor of the Bhamo
