It is only the notion of a low which keeps agents and ship-owuers: from coming to a mutual arrangements on the subject, and we are ture that if by law they were all placed on an equal fouting, they would heartily moquiende in the officers and spamen on board steamers and sailing yameh enjoying the blessing of Sunday rost. As to mail steamers, it would ba wall if Me Goldsmith and his friends wond obtain from the leading British porta information with regard to their treatment by the Ouston Houses. Our opinion is that there sheild be no distinction. It is only two or three times a your that the Euglia mail arrives on Sunday, and still more seldom doos the French or German mail como in on that day. If the agents of these steamers considered it all-important to gain a few hours by working on Sundays,

THE Rov. A. G. Goldsmith, in his letter, |published in yesterday's issue, hopes that the subject of Sunday Labour in the bar- bour will not be permitted to slip into oblivion. We sincerely trust this will not

demurrage. At any rate this difficulty ought not to stand in the way of obtain- ing Sunday rest in this harbour any more than it does in other ports. As to the junks obtaining an advantage over steamers by being able to work seven days, in the week, the ide is prepos torous. One might as well argue that all the English and foreign shop-keepera should open on Sunday in order that the Chinese might not obtain in advantage over them. The truth is the Chinese tako about as many holidays sa wedu, although they take them in a different manner, and

As our Shanghai contemporary, the N.-C. Daily News, reicarks, 's more hopeless piece of argument than the Go- veraer's speech 'wo never read. Against all precedent and example, he matains that the stoppage of Sunday labour in the harbour must entail the stoppage of all la bour on land. We have already met, this argument by showing that all that a de- manded of the Chinese is that they allow as to observe our own customs. We allow thom to work aran days in the week and ake their holidays as they please. It i surely not too much to ask that in a British port, British subjects should not be driven. to work on Sundays because a fow Chinese are ready to take delivery of their goods. That the native merchants would not con. sider it unjust to be called upon to make this praall concession to English cutome, seeing we conccde so much to them, may be taken for granted; for, even at the Treaty Porta, in their own country they are forced to a large extent to acquica the cossation of work on board atesora on Sunday, and they have never been known to runko a compla.ct. We are firmly con- vinced that if a law wore, made in Hong- kong forbidding Bunday labour in the harbour, or rather permitting it only on payment of a saun equivalent to a day's demurrage, which would ensure that the permission was only asked for on a stronger. ground than the desire to gain one day for the ship,wo firmly convinced that not one slip Captain, be ho Eog ish, Amerisau, German or Chinese, would seek to avade the law.
