BUCKSTONE IN CHINA.

We find the following letter in the Pink Un of Dec. 20, just to hand. Perhaps some of our older readers may be able to add a little to these re- miniscences, as there are still one or two of our veteran racing men left. We shall gladly find room for any further old-time racing gossip in these columns. • O'Gee San' writes -

They also had several Australians, one Birmingham, fairly good, but an Australian named Exeter was about the best in my time. He belonged to a'mun numed Cock, Jardine's jockey was a Mr Billy' Morgan, a Mon- mouthshire gentleman. The American house of Russell ́and Co. imported Derringer, an American. He was a

failure; but an old three-cornered horso called Tom Ochiltree paid his way.

Mr Quong Tart explained to Sir Edmund Barton that China, unlike other nations, had no Consul in Sydney, and for that reason they were compelled to explain their grievances by deputation. Some misunderstanding had, it was stated, arisen in connection with the admission of Chinese under exemption certificates, as they were required to lodge £100 by the Commonwealth, and the New South Wales Government required them also to pay £100.

Sir William Goodman said that as a inem ber of the Church Body he fully approved Mr Munford's keeping an eye on the doings of the Church Body; it was quite a right thing, and they were all much assisted by feeling that the eyes of the seat holdera and the members They had a somewhat responsible duty to perform,

Therefore, though a Chinese imagant passed the education test, and was granted an exemption certificate by the Commonwealth Government, he would still be liable to a poll tax of £100, under tho New South Wales Act. It was a question for the Stalo Government to decide whether they would impose the provisions of the local Act, in view of the fact that the Commonwealth Act was in operation, SHOW of FANCY and other but it was entirely a State matter.

was imposed, any Chinese admitted in any State, under the provisions of the Chinese Restriction Act was, under section 92 of the Commonwealth Constitution, entitled to free intercourse with any part of Australia. He was glad of the opportunity of saying that, as one or two things had been done which were inconsistent with that view, but they were not done by the Commonwealth.

Mr Tart raised a question about applica tions regarding the readmission of Chinese previously domiciled in Australia, and Sir Edmund Barton requested the deputation to place this and any other points they desired to raise before him in writing.

The Chairman stated that the west point to be considered! was Mr Ward's agree. mont.
