The officer Bays a part of the first echelon of the Japanese body which landed on the Kinchau peninsula under the protection of the landing party of bluejackets com manded by Captain Nomoto, left the landing point at 4,30 p.m. on May (5. On reaching a certain place on the fol lowing day, the contingent received the order to destroy the Eastern Chinese Railway at Port Adams, and the march was immediately commenced. As the Japanese approached the place, about three hundred of the enemy's infantry and a troop of cavalry were observed to be oc cupying the strategic points around the place. A company of Japanese took up a position on an elevation in front, and a corporal with three men was sent to recon- noitre. The scouting party ran for B die- tance of about 7,500 metres ascending a hill, when five or six Russian troopers were cucountered on the summit. They were attacked and some foil while the rest ran down the other side of the hill.

Now, thanks to Mother Seigel's Syrup, I am never troubled with indigestion, pains, loss of sleep, or any other ailment and am as well as ever

I am directed to inform you that the Committee of this Chamber have read your letter of the 26th ultimo on the subject of Cotton Cultivation in the New Territory with much interest.
Hongkong having entered into the manufacture of Cotton Yarn the availabili'y of a good supply of the raw material grown within the limits of the Colony is of great importance and the Committee are anxious that all reasonable means should be taken to further the project.
It has therefore been suggested to the Government that Corton seed or plants should be distributed amongst the Farmers in the new territory and prizes offered for in the experiment. In this way it would be possible to prove, at a small expense whether the theories advanced by you are likely to have a practical side.
Indian raw cotton now costs locally 28
In conclusion, I am to state that any efforts you may make with the above object in view will always have the warm support of my Committee and they will be pleased to be kept informed of the experimental steps which doubtless will be taken to prove your contention.
