The harvest having been exceptionally good, the province is enjoying a rest from "rebellions." No Kwangai mau as a rule will exert himself even to cause trouble if his stomach is full. The work on the fields he leaves to his botter half, while he enjoys hia siseta and his pipe in peace; but of course when times are bad be must do some-

thing and as robbery and violence are not so laborious as earning an honest living, he "turns rebel," aud betakes himself to the hills where he is safe from the arm of the law.

The news of the death of the late Emperor and Empress Dowager made Jittle impression in Nanning and for people realise that anything if foportauce has happened. This was exemplified in an innsing way in a Mission Chapel. That morning the missionaries much solemnised gave out as an opening hymn "A Faw more years shali roll" which was slowly and impressively sung; at the close of the! meeting the native Christians were asked to make a selection, and an vid aouatry woman innocently chose "Ring the bells of Hoaves, thero is joy to-day" and al antemnity was lost in the strains of that merry tune!
