THERE are some manifest lessons to be legrut from the recent trials of trespass upon the Hongkong fortifications. If we are not very much mistaken, two foreign ollicers were arrested on this charge and released from custody (on conditions) many months ago, and nothing more was heard of the circumstance. unfortunate caricatura of justice por- petrated by the predecessor of the present Police Magistrate, under which two Russian inval officers were let oft with a miserably-inadequate penalty of 800 each, is still freak in the minds of resi- deuts. British officers found in similar circumstances to those of the Russian Daval officers would have probably been sont to Siberia. Tunt feeble sextuace of a fifty dollars fine we bave deliber-
