For SHANGHAI,

The night box is doubtless a useful institution, but will probably be rendered almost supernumerary when the auswer arrives to the Chamber of Commerce

memorial on the subject of changing the hour of the mail's despatel. And this view of the case has doubtless prevented the expenditure of Colonial funds in the erection of a standing box in the building heretofore. However, if the Gover ment think it necessary, the public will be only too pleased to have it, and we doubt not that, when the Postmaster General returns, ho will be glad to find

that his views have been carried out, without subjecting him to the chance of s refusal to jaovide what he deems neces sary. His absences are, however, usually so short, that the Government would have shewn more courtesy in waiting for his return to allow the notion to be pro ulgated by the proper official, instead of casting additional trouble upon the hard-worked Colonial Secretary.

THE LESMONI PIRACY. THE account given by the Captain of the Lasong of the capture of his vessel quite exonerates him personally from duy accusation of cowardice or inhumanity. The hoisting of lights as a signal to pirates is very common trick suwongst the native scoundrels who occasionally ship as "passengers" in sea-going vessels. Our readers will probably recollect that the point of a story we recently quotel from an English Magazine, turned upon this traitorous proceeding. That the natives should have been left to take their own chance was therefore but natural.

There are, however, three of the gantry who escaped-two who went to Swatow, and cue in hiding here. Just for one day we long for a touch of Chi nese law in its merciless severity. With out doubt, the three survivore, could
