These colonies rapidly increased and multiplied, and securing for themselves the navigation of the rivers that lead up to Yunnan, have rapidly increased in wealth and com- mercial prosperity.
By the Annameso ufficiale, it was first thought, that the settlements being chiefly Chinese exiles of undoubted courage und of experience in the art of war, they would act as a bulwark syoinst Aunam's more powerful neighbour, and as far as this has gone, their so- ticipation has been so fur verified. But it has proved more than this, for there has grown up in Tonquin, a half-
Chinese, half Anumose rice, who, while maintaining rigidly the manners and customs of the fatherland, refuse allegiance to either China or Annem, and harass the "commerce and give and- less anxiety and trouble to both. In deed, so feeble has the Court of Hud become, that it has been compelled to acknowledge the legality of the Black Flag, communities, and as the same ting to refrain from any interference in their affairs. And on the French taking action, none are more indignant than those semi-independent black- the infringement of their rights, one louder in their up- peals to the bolests of international

Indeed, when a faint show of authority was rendered necessary by French pressure, it was found that the anda. mese were practically powerless. They could not be otherwise, for they had allowed the system to go on by permit

As for our Binck Flag friends, they were not, should sufficient inducement offer, particularly squeamish as to scruples in joining, aiding or abetting if any well-paying expedition was being set on foot. The modus operandi is according to French writers, sufficiently simple. One or two sampans are seized. Pushing out to son under cover of night, the pirates seize the first PASSENORES arriving in Hongkong, or any likely fishing junk.
