The two lights in line bear S. 76° 33′ W.
The WOOSUNG LIGHT remains, White from the bank of the Yangtze to the N.W.-ward of the Lighthouse to S. 22" W. It has been altered to GREEN from S. 22 W. to S. 64° 50′ W., and to RED from S. 64 5J W. to the left (or Western) bank of the Woosung River.
The FORT BUOY has been shifted 700 feet 8. 47° 40′ W. from its former position, and moored in 15 feet at Low Water of Spring Tides; from it, the Woosung Light. house now bears S. 87° W., distant 4.9 cables.

The Syray came to grief in the river channel, and the party took to the river banks, pushed on to Tangku in spite of their risks and privations, and reached that place very shortly after Mr James Watts The had completed his famous journey. pluck and determination ghown by Mr Seeberg and his companions have never been called in question, and were in no sense lessened by the fact that. Mr. Watts proved the faster messenger. After the siege Mr and Mrs Seeberg left on a visit to America and France, returning in 1901, when Mr Sooberg, who held a posi tion on the outdoor staff of the Maril- ime Customs, was transferred to Ningpo.
An indemnity claim of a considérable amount was put in by Mr Seeberg after the siege, and was forwarded to the American Minister, Mr Seeberg having been long resident in America. Owing to some difficulty, however, in proving the nation.

to have boen done with the claim, and Mrs Seeberg appears destined to suffer the loss, not only of her husband, but of all mone- tary compensation for losses maintained before his death. Had he lived, no doubț the question of nationality would have 870 been satisfactorily settled by his own ef- forts; he would have known where to look for such papers and documents as are necessary in these cases. The position of the widow is deeply distressing. She is deprived, in fact, of every means of support. The American Minister, Mr. Conger, wrote that he was personally cognisant of Mr. Seeberg's ability and intelligent and gratuitous servico to Americans and Ameri- can interests,'-but he can do nothing. The Customs, to whom he rendered faithful service, have done nothing. Owing to Mr. Seeberg's transfer from Tientsin after some 762 five or six years' residence, many of his friends lost sight of him, and his widow, who is at present staying in Tientsin, is now left, not without friends but without. any official encouragement to pursue he claims, and is probably without exception the heaviest loser, by the siege, among all the foreigners who bore the Boxer attack. -China Times, 6th April.

LONDON, March 20. With characteristic modesty, Mr Chamberlain has declared that we must not put too high a value on the work he has accomplished in South Africa and that much depends upon whether the promises which Mr Hofmeyr and his confrères, forsaking their hitherto hostile attitude towards British rule, will be kept. We are, however, opti- mistic enough to hope that Mr Cham. berlain has thoroughly brought home to the Boers that the only road to the full development of the great resources of new possessions is the burying of racial animosities in the one desire to strengthen the great Empire of which South Africa now forms an important part. Imperialism, with its sweeping away of the petty disputes belonging to parochialism, should be the motto of English and Dutch alike, and if they keep this before them, there is every reason to believe that a splendid futuro lesson of the beautiful work which comes TRAGIC FATE OF A SEAMAN, gained the summit of the ice cap, where awaits these fertile Colonies, Right from the 'distressed country.'

It is to be presumed that, in common with other English children, they have thrilled over tales of adventures and fights with Red In- dians, but to actually see these fast dis- appearing warriors execute a blood- curdling war dance must have afforded them more delight than fifty stories.

THE
This successful and highly popular remedy, as employed in the Continental Hospitals by Ricord, Rostan, Jobert, Veipeau, and others, combines all the desiderata to be sought in a medicine of the kind and surpasses everything bitherto employed. THERAPION NO. 1
only, in a remarkably short time, often a few days removes all discharges from the urinary organs, superseding injections, the use of which does irro parable harm by laying the foundation of stricture and other serious diseases.
THERAPION No.2
for impurity of the blood, scurvy, pimples, spots, blotches, pains and swelling of the joints, secon- dary symptoms, gout, rheumatism, and all diseases for which it has been too much a fashion to em ploy mercury, sarsaparilla, &c., to the destruction of sufferers' teeth and ruin of health. This pre- paration purifies the whole system through the blood, and thoroughly eliminates every poisonous matter from the body..
THERAPION No. 3
fornerusexhaustion, impaired vitality, sleepless- ness, and all the distressing consequences of early error, excess, residence in hot, unhealthy climates, Bc. It possesses surprising power in restoring strength and vigoor to the debilitated.
THERAPION is sold by all
the principal Chemists and Merchants throughout the World. Price in England 2/9 & 4/6. In ordering, state which of the three numbers is required, and observe above Trade Mark, which is a fac-simile of word THERAPION as it appears on British Government Stamp (in white letters on a red ground) affired to every package by order of His Majesty's Hon.
