THE RECENT DISTURBANCE AT

Ningpo, September 2nd, 1878. To fully understand the late disturbance at Ningpo and its neighbourhood, it might be necessary to go back some yeara; but I only purpose to deal with its immediate cause and actual facts. It may fairly be described as an anti-lekin demonstration. The chief lekiu Collector of the Departinent of Ningpo lives in the city, and has the management of all the lekin offices in this prefecture. For many years complaints have been made of the severity of the lekin officers at the South Barrier Station, and serious disputes have taken place in consequence. Until n few weeks ago, an arrangement was carried out by which goods brought from Feng hus to Ningpo paid lekin, but produce from Ningpo to Feng hus was exempted; and it At the end of July. seemed that this arrangement was satisfac- tory to all parties. however, a new Collector was appointed whe, for other bils drawn under garantee of probably with the assent of his superiors, the Bank Compe dore, it might be con-roverted to an old practice of collecting lekin tended that the Ompradore was not a on the goods going from Ningps to Fenghua, fullp-auctorized agent of the Bauk; but also augmenting the rates on some articles this would be an argument, he alleged, that brought from Fenghua. As may be sup- woul be scouted in law and would not be posed, these changes created dissatisfactivo, receivua by any unprejudiced mind.
