News comes from all quarters of China, Boihow in the South, Chungking in the

1.50 5.00 West, Formons in the East and Nowchang 7.60 in the North, of attempts to imposs row 12.00 Lekin taxes. The afforts of the Viceroy at Canton have evidently stimulated to aclivity the other officials through out the empire. Money is surely wanted both by the Imperial and local anti- ritics, and a squeeze must be made. all round. But it is not an easy matter to get the Chinese to submit to a cow tax, so we have learned by experience in Hongkong. They are a submisive people. nly in regard to de abuses. Now 8 0.70 exactions they always resist for a time, and aometimes the resistance of the guilda is so strong that the authontire have to give way to avoid troublo. It is by no means an ey tack to fight a Chinese guild and still more 0.75 difficult la fight a combination of guilds. At Changking a compromise seems to have been come to batween the authorities sud 1.00 the guilts, and something of the sort will probably be arranged at Hoihow. Thoo
