He has admitted to me that although he had been nearly three years pastor of a parish with only a little more than 200 people, all of whom (it must be supposed) were intimately known to him, he did not take farewell of them by a personal call at their houses, or allusion to his departure in his last Sermon.\n\nHe writes that he \"hoped and intended to have been back before\" \"the following Sunday;\" and at the close of this quotation, in his paper, he volunteers an oath to attest all its statements.\n\nIt is with painful reluctance that I remark on, but facts compel me, Fyfield. He left it on Sunday evening, March 19. He sailed from London in the \"John Bunyan\" eight days after, viz. on Monday, March 27.\n\nHow could he possibly have hoped and intended to have been back again and to have officiated in his parish on Sunday? But it might have been supposed that the \"John Bunyan's\" departure was detained, or that his departure was unexpectedly hastened. On this point, inquiries (if considered necessary) might be addressed to her owners in London.\n\nI regret, however, to state that I have reason for thinking that the ship was detained for four days and that Monday, March 27th, was later than was at first expected.\n\nIt is my painful conclusion that Mr. Baxter, in the unhappy position in which he has been placed, has forgotten these particulars; and that his present line of defence is that of a man almost rendered desperate by his difficulties.\n\nN.

T. MERCER, Colonial Secretary.\n\nVICE-ADMIRALTY PRIZE COURT OF HONGKONG.\n\nWednesday, the Fourteenth day of November, 1855.\n\nBefore the Honourable John WALTER HULME, Esq., Judge.\n\nThe Greta, Thaulow master, Prize-Transport in the Service of the Enemy.\n\nJudgment:\n\nWar having, on the 28th March, 1854, been declared by Her Most Gracious Majesty the Queen of Great Britain and Ireland against the Emperor of All the Russias-the Bremen Brig Greta, having on board two hundred and seventy Russian enemies, was, together with her cargo, on the 1st of August, 1855, seized by Her Majesty's Steam Sloop-of-war Barracouta in the Sea of Ochotsk, off the Coast of Saghalien, in Latitude 51 North, Longitude 146 East, while on a voyage from the port of Simoda in Japan, to the Russian port of Ayen, as being a Transport in the service of the Enemy, and consequently a lawful prize to Her Majesty, and brought into the Vice-Admiralty Prize Court of Hongkong to be adjudicated upon accordingly.\n\nThe usual Monition having issued, a claim to the ship was put in by Lieutenant Thaulow, the master, on behalf of Captain Laun, a Bremen subject, as owner; a claim to the cargo was also put in by Pustau and Brodersen, natural born subjects of the King of Denmark.\n\nThe Acting Queen's Advocate appeared for Lieut. Thaulow in support of the claim to the ship, and Mr Green as counsel on behalf of the claimants of the cargo.\n\nOn behalf of the Captors, The facts, as disclosed by the principal witness, Lieut. Thaulow, Master of the Greta, corroborated (with one or two exceptions, which will be pointed out in their proper places) by the First and Second Mates and a Seaman belonging to the Greta, coupled with the Ship's log and other documentary evidence, appear to be as follows:-\n\nThat the Greta was originally a British ship, built at Aberdeen in 1840, and at that time she went by the name of the Jane Geary-that in the year 1854 she was sold to Franz Knoop of Victoria, Melbourne-that in the same year, that is to say, on the 1st November, she was resold by the said Franz Knoop in Hongkong, China, through his Attorney, Ludvig Auguste Lübeck, to one Eugen Laun, a citizen of Bremen, through his Agents, Messrs Pustau and Brodersen-that in March of 1855 she was chartered by Pustau & Co., the Agents of the ship, by Robert P. De Silver, United States' Naval Storekeeper, to take up a cargo of Naval Stores for the United States' Squadron at Hakodadi in Japan-that the said vessel, then going by the name of the Greta, sailed from Hongkong on the 22nd of April 1855 on her voyage to Hakodadi in Japan, having on board the said United States' Naval Stores, and also a cargo of merchandise belonging to Pustau & Co.; who, it distinctly appears from the evidence of Lieut. Thaulow, the Master, had the direction and management with respect to the Greta's employment or trade, and with whom he, the Master, corresponded on the concerns of the vessel or her cargo.\n\nThat she arrived at Hakodadi on the 18th May, and commenced discharging the American Stores on the 6th June, and completed the discharge on the 15th June. A small portion of Messrs Pustau & Co.'s cargo was also discharged or bartered at this port.\n\nWhile at Hakodadi, in consequence of some arrangement which took place, the nature of which does not appear, the Greta, instead of making the port of Hakodadi her place of destination, proceeded on the 21st June on a voyage to Simoda, also a Japanese port, and arrived there on the 4th July-on the 7th discharged some of her cargo, and on the 9th discharged the remainder of her cargo.\n\nThis appears to be the case from the Log Book, but from the evidence of Lieut. Thaulow the remainder of the cargo was on board the Greta when she left Simoda for Ayen.\n\nWhile at Simoda, a Charterparty was signed for the carriage of two hundred and seventy Russian Officers and Seamen (who had been wrecked off that place in the Russian Frigate Diana) from that port, and also another Japanese port named Hada, to Ayen, a Russian port, for the purpose of enabling the said Russians to work their way home through Siberia.\n\nOne copy of this charterparty was left with the Supercargo at Simoda,-the other is in the possession of Lieutenant Pouschkine, the Senior Officer of the Russians: it was made on the 9th July last between the Supercargo and the Master and two of the Russians, of whom Lieut. Pouschkine was one.\n\nThe ship was to receive Fifteen Hundred Pounds and Two Thousand Dollars for the service; bills on bankers in London or Amsterdam were given for these amounts, and left at Simoda (with the Supercargo, I infer).\n\nAccording to the evidence of the Master, Thaulow, all the Russian passengers were taken on board at Hada, in which he is confirmed by the evidence of the Seaman belonging to the Greta, while the First Mate states that twelve, and the Second Mate that ten, were taken on board at Simoda; but this is of no great importance.\n\nThe Greta sailed from Simoda on the 10th July under American colors, and arrived at Hada on the 11th July, from which place she sailed on her voyage to Ayen on the 14th of that month, and was captured on the 1st August by Her Majesty's Steam Sloop Barracouta.\n\nThe American colors were at the stern when the Barracouta came alongside. The Master ordered these colors to be taken down and the Bremen colors to be hoisted.\n\nAccording to the Master's evidence and that of the Seaman, there were no colors on board except the Bremen and American, while the First and Second Mate state that there was also on board the color representing the German Confederation.\n\nAt the time of the capture, all the Russian passengers were down below, as the Master did not think that a British man-of-war would let them pass. The hatches were not closed, a sail was thrown over them.\n\nIt may be remarked, that the Log Book of the Greta is all but silent on the subject of taking Russians on board.\n\nIn looking at this evidence, it seems to me impossible to arrive at any other conclusion than that the Greta was at the time of her capture a Transport in the service of the Enemy-that she was guilty of fraudulent concealment, and was sailing under false colors-and that she is consequently, according to the course of Admiralty and the Law of Nations, subject to condemnation.\n\nIndeed no attempt is made by Lieut. Thaulow, the Master, on behalf of the owner, to deny the Greta's liability in point of strict law to confiscation; but an appeal is made to the sympathies of the Court, and it is urged that the shipwrecked Russian Officers and Seamen became distressed \"Mariners on the Coast of Japan, and as such, were to be looked upon, not as enemies who had lost their vessel in battle with the British or French fleet, and who had taken refuge on shore to escape becoming prisoners of war; but were to be looked upon with sympathy as a \"fallen foe whom we were not allowed to abandon, but to whom we were to lend a hand to help them back to their native hearths.\"\n\nWhile entering my judicial disclaimer against any such doctrine, (although individually deeply regretting the sufferings which the prisoners may have undergone, and lamenting, in common with all, the miseries which have arisen out of the present unfortunate but necessary war,) let me see where the sympathy of either the owner of the ship or cargo is to be discovered? and nowhere do I find the sympathetic feeling so strongly developed as in securing the sums of fifteen hundred pounds and two thousand dollars for the conveyance of these unfortunate men to Ayen.\n\nI now proceed to the consideration of the question of the claim set up to the cargo on the part of Messrs Pustau & Co.\n\nIt is urged by Mr Green as their Counsel, that, even supposing the ship to be condemned, still the cargo, as being the property of an innocent and distinct owner, would not be liable to confiscation-and for this he cites the case of the Staudt Embden, 1 Cr. Rob. 30.\n\nHe also cites the cases of the Susan and the Hope, 6 Cr. Rob. 462 and 463 in notis, for the purpose of showing, that even where the owner of the ship and cargo is the same person, still, if he was ignorant of the illegal shipment by the master which renders his ship subject to condemnation, his cargo (being unrepresented) would not be liable.\n\nTo render these cases applicable, the innocence of Messrs Pustau & Co, must be established.\n\nIt is further urged, that the present question has been placed beyond discussion by Her Majesty's Declaration of the 28th March 1854, in which Her Majesty renounces all claims to the confiscation of neutral property found in Enemies' ships, and a fortiori in neutral ships.",

        "content_text": "## THE LONDON AND CHINA TELEGRAPH\n\n### Aug. 13, 1867\n\nMr. Edward Holdsworth contains, in addition to pro forma invoices and account sales of silk shipped to London, the cost per lb. of China raw and waste silk laid down in London at 58. 6d. to 73. 5d. per tael exchange for raw, and 5s. to 7s. 6d. for waste. The cost per picul of raw silk is calculated in these tables at 200 to 800 taels, and of waste at 5 to 64 taels.\n\nMuch is said in our papers about the losses involved by the Insurance societies during the last year, so that most of them are not able to pay a dividend, whilst some have lost a good part of their capital. It is of too much interest that I should not reproduce what is said about it in a small local paper, because it is worthy to be known generally that during the last year the \"Javasche Zee en Brand Assurantie Maatschappij\" lost its reserve fund and 50,000f. of its capital; the \"Bataviasche Zee en Brand Assurantie Maatschappij\" lost 50,000f. of its capital of 180,000f; the \"Koloniale Zee en Brand Assurantie Maatschappij\" lost its reserve fund; the \"Tweede Koloniale Zee en Brand Assurantie Maatschappij\" (established last year) lost 61,000f.; and the \"Oosterling\" (established last year) 30,760f. of its capital. The very unsatisfactory result of the companies who are represented here is due to the fact that they accept too great risks and insure too large sums upon the several ships.\n\nWe notice that the \"Teping\" was the first of the tea clippers to pass Anjer. She left Foochow on the 3rd June, and passed Anjer on the 21st. The \"Maitland\" sailed two days after her, and the \"Serica\" passed Anjer on the 27th, four days after the \"Maitland\".\n\n### THE CIVIL SERVICE.-Foreign-office\n\nMr. H. B. Bristow has been appointed student interpreter in China or Japan. The Queen has been graciously pleased to appoint William Graham Sandford, Esq., now a Third Secretary, to be a Second Secretary in Her Majesty's Diplomatic Service.\n\n### Parliamentary Intelligence\n\n#### HOUSE OF LORDS\n\n##### POSTAL COMMUNICATIONS\n\n(Aug. 9th.) The Duke of MONTROSE: I beg to lay upon the table a postal convention between this country and the United States, under which the postage between the two countries would be reduced from one shilling to sixpence. We hope that, in addition to this reduction, we shall have a more frequent communication with America; and I have little doubt that in a short time we shall arrive at what, perhaps, we never could have expected—a daily communication with the United States. By means of this convention, we shall also be able to reduce very considerably the postage to Canada. The letters to Canada passing through the United States will be reduced from one shilling to eightpence. We shall also have an opportunity of facilitating the communication with the new colony of British Columbia. We shall be enabled to send letters there in a much shorter time than by the present route by the Isthmus of Panama, and at a very much reduced cost.\n\nI think your lordships will consider that these arrangements will be satisfactory to the country at large. I must say that the United States Government have acted with the greatest cordiality and with the greatest anxiety to facilitate all these communications. (Hear.) I am anxious to take this opportunity of making some remarks on the subject of our postal arrangements with India and China. After long consideration of the subject, a committee of your lordships' House recommended the Government to give notice for the termination of the existing contracts for the purpose of having fresh tenders and a more frequent communication with India. It was proposed that we should have a weekly mail to Bombay, and that a mail should proceed by railway from Bombay to Calcutta and Madras.\n\nWe have followed out the recommendations of the committee. We have given notice to terminate the existing contracts, and advertised for tenders for future contracts to run mails from Marseilles to Alexandria, and from Alexandria to Bombay, China, and Australia. But a very curious idea has got into the public mind on the subject, and it has been alluded to in the other House of Parliament, and in many of the newspapers—namely, that in following out the recommendations of the committee, we intended to give up the control of the postal communication with India, and to throw it entirely into the hands of foreign Governments. This is most entirely and gratuitously a mistake. Such an idea never entered into my mind, or into that of any other member of the Government; and the only ground for it could be that in giving notice for tenders, we did not put into them that we would not contract with any foreign Government.\n\nFrom that, people have taken the idea that we were to contract with the Messageries Imperiales and give up the control of the communication by our own vessels. In the committee of the House of Commons, it was suggested that we should avail ourselves of the Messageries Imperiales in several cases, and even that we should throw it into their hands if they offered a cheaper service than our own countrymen. That is wrong, but I do not say that we shall not under some circumstances avail ourselves of that company, and at present, we send some letters on their way to China by their boats. But these are only supplementary arrangements associated with the boats under our own control. To throw everything into the hands of any foreign country would be extremely impolitic, even though in the first instance, it might enable us to perform the service cheaper.\n\n**COMMERCIAL**\n\n### COFFEE\n\nThe market remains in a very good position, because there was more demand for consumption. For Malang coffee of the last sale of the Dutch Trading Company, somewhat higher prices were paid; the quality was very inferior. Of private imports, white, yellow, and brown sorts are very scarce.\n\n| Type | Quantity | Price |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Ordinary to good ordinary greenish, some brownish, ex Kandeish | 800 bags | different prices |\n| Good ordinary greenish, ex Kandeish | 800 bags | different prices |\n\nImported were 8,144 piculs Java, ex Triton; 1,034 piculs, per Eva Johanna; and 2,612 piculs, ex Landbouw.\n\n### SUGAR (RAW)\n\nThe 38,924 baskets Java which were sold by the Dutch Trading Company on the 24th ultimo realised full May prices for brown and yellow sorts, and f. to under them for white quality. For the result of the sale, a very good impression was made upon the demand, which has been very firm since. Of private imports, 8,500 baskets were sold before and after the sale, of which 3,500 per Eva Johanna at full July prices to f. higher.\n\n| Quantity | Price |\n| --- | --- |\n| 2,221 baskets Java, ex Triton | 293f. No. 11, damp and very damp |\n\nThe unsold stock of Java at the Dutch Trading Company was on the 1st inst. 28,825 baskets, against 49,854 in 1866.\n\n### Continental Intelligence\n\n#### HOLLAND\n\n(FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.)\n\nAbout the new Minister of the Colonial Department, a deep silence prevails now in the press, only the \"Arnhemsche Courant\" said that Mr. Hasselman accepted the portfolio with the condition that again an Indian ground-rent Bill should be brought in Parliament, whilst in this Bill should be stipulated that the right of possession should be granted to the natives. The assertion may more or less be true, but I cannot warrant it. The same paper also told that the Minister of the War Department has the intention to augment the militia with 25,000 soldiers, so that the budget of war will be brought from 13 to 20 millions.\n\n#### TEA\n\nThe market is unaltered; the quotation is for China Congou, Sloe., 175c.; and for Java do., 65c. to 75c., according to the quality.\n\n#### RICE\n\nThe market is very firm; of uncleaned, 1,896 b. Sourabaya, ex Maassluis were sold at Amsterdam at a little above 8f., and here, 2,500 b.

Mace, 10 b. Cloves, and 24 b. Cinnamon.\n\n#### TOBACCO\n\nOf Java, the following imports took place: per Surat, 240 ...\n\n#### INDIGO\n\nFor Java, there was much demand, some lots good to fine were sold at higher prices; ordinary quality sells very difficult.\n\n#### COTTON\n\nWith some demand for export; 300 b. were sold at 45c. for middling fair, Dhollerah at 46c. to 47c. for fair, and 49c. for good fair.\n\n#### MANUFACTURES\n\nThe market is unaltered, and the quotation is for 6) Madapollans and Calicoes 5f. to £5.10 each; No 28 Warps, 14jd.; No 14, 13d.; No. 80, Cops, 13l.; No. 16 do., 12d.\n\n#### TIN\n\nFor Banca, the market is quiet; the quotation is 53f. to 52½f; Billiton is quoted 52½f. 100 slabs were sold at 58¼f; and 800 slabs at 58¾f.\n\n#### RATTANS\n\n153,460 b. at auction by the Dutch Trading Company, on the 1st inst., were sold as follows:\n\n| Type | Price |\n| --- | --- |\n| Banjermassing | f.5. to f.8.60 |\n| Padang | 6. to 12.70 |\n| Koetie | +4 to 7.20 |\n\n#### MISCELLANEOUS\n\nOf Preserved Ginger, 350 chests China will be offered for sale; the valuation is from 85c. to 90c. Camphor, firm, but quiet. Cassia Lignea, quiet. Cassia Vera: With some transactions at 35c. for ordinary quality. Cassia-oil: 44f.\n\n### RUSSIA, GERMANY, &c.\n\n(FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.)\n\n#### HAMBURG, Aug. 7\n\nThe endeavours of Mr. August Behn to emancipate the German and other Continental shipowners from the thraldom of the French Bureau Veritas by the establishment of a \"Germanic Lloyd's\"—of which I gave your readers some account a few months ago—have been crowned with the most signal success, and the full concurrence of the shipowners and underwriters in Bremen and Lubeck, in the Baltic ports and in Denmark, Sweden, Price and the company's agents in the East; also a statement of accounts, and Norway.\n\nThe Association has declared itself \"constituted,\" and is in full operation. The central seat is Hamburg, with branches at the principal ports. The following is a list of the directors: August Behn, J. D. H. ELPHINSTONE,? Shipowner, Hamburg, President: F. H. Bitter, Managing Director of the Hamburg Marine Assurance Company of 1866. Vice-President; A. Beel, Managing Director of the Marine Assurance Company of 1859 at Lubeck; F. Harkort, formerly Captain in the Army, Knight of the Iron Cross of Bravery, Hornbrack, near Dortmund; Franz Paetow, Shipowner, Rostock; Fr. Schuler, Shipbuilder, Stettin; and R. Werner, Captain in the Prussian Royal Navy, and Director of the Royal Dockyard at Danzig.\n\nThe report of the Electric and International Telegraph Company, presented on the 7th inst., shows an available balance of £68,995, and recommends a dividend of 5 per cent. for the half-year, or at the rate of 10 per cent. per annum.\n\n### COMMERCIAL\n\nOn the whole, the produce markets have been quiet since last mail, and there is but little to report. Rice firm. Cassia Lignea continues in good demand, at 11 sch. beo. Pepper is more in request, and among the transactions were 1,500 bags of Singapore, at 3 5-16ths sch. bco. The holders of Spelter will not listen to lower offers, and steadily adhere to their demands of 133 marks banco, both for delivery and in loco.\n\n### SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE\n\n#### ARRIVED\n\n* Grossvater, from Java\n\n#### LOADING\n\n* Padel, for Singapore and Penang\n* Isabelita, for Manila\n* Aldebaran and Energie, for Hong Kong\n* Saturnus, for Shanghai\n* Christine, for Nagasaki and Yokohama\n\n### BANK AND MISCELLANEOUS SHARES\n\n| Company | Paid | Price Aug. 9 | Price Aug. 11 |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| Agra Bank, A shares | All | 26 to 28 | - |\n| Do.

In order to get rid of him, Auguste (Freulein Feldman) tells him that his father is dead, and, on the old gentleman's suddenly returning, Auguste informs the father that news has been received that his son has died in Paris. There is a by-plot in which Shwisbusser, who passes himself off as the son, appears on the scene, and produces considerable amusement by making love, much to old Zander's delight, to his adopted daughter Pauline, and gives a capital comic song. The mistake resulting from Auguste's stories lead to innumerable comical incidents, as may easily be conceived, the upshot being that the father and son meet in a dark room and each mistakes the other for a ghost, old Zander fainting upon the spot. Of course, the whole affair is cleared up in due time, and the piece ends in general reconciliation. Zander, the leading character, was given with great humour and cleverness, by Herr Knickebein; while Joseph, the servant, was full of intense fun, and brought down great applause by an admirable comic song. Benjamin was the silly loutish son to a point; and little Auguste made the audience forgive her for her white lies by her charming sprightliness and pleasantry. Charlotte and Pauline also deserve a word of praise; while Madame Zander (Frau Porchheimer) acted the stately middle-aged lady to perfection. The other characters were also well given; and, as is always the case with German actors, the by-play was very good.\n\nThe Prince stayed to the end, and entered thoroughly into the spirit of the evening, repeatedly joining, in the most hearty and gracious manner, in the applause which greeted the best part of the acting. On leaving, he was vociferously cheered.\n\n40",

        "content_text": "808\n\nTHE LONDON AND CHINA TELEGRAPH.\n\nmeans we do not know. Why it is so we do not know. It behoves the Government to know whether any persons are engaged in introducing a false lead currency, depreciating the coin it has issued, and making endless trouble and anxiety to the masses of the poor people to take effective measures to protect the value of its currency to terrify forgers and prevent the issue of any currency that will destroy its credit and the value of its coin,\n\nThe province of Bahang was originally a Laotian region. During the wars with the Laos the Siamese conquered this region, and eventually placed over it a Siamese governor. It is now regarded as Siamese territory, and is the extreme limit of Siam proper on the north-west. Rahang on the west joins British Burmah; on the north it joins several Laotian provinces that are again subject to Chienguai. Chiengmai is a Laotian province, and is still governed by Laotian princes. His Majesty the King of Siam usually concurs in appointing the successor of any Chiengmai Laotian prince who may have deceased. Persons who may be obnoxious to the laws of Siam often escape to Chiengmai, and while there the Siamese do not usually succeed in gaining possession of their persons. Is Chiengmai a conquered province? Is it tributary to Siam, and to what extent; or is it simply under the protection of Siam, as was Cambodia? All these are questions full of interest.\n\nIt is said that Messrs. Vrooman and Culbertson made the distance from Bangkok to Rahang in twenty-two days. Last week the Rev. Mr. Culbertson returned from Rahiang to Bangkok in four days. This is very rapid travelling by the boats usually employed for such purposes.\n\nBORNEO.\n\nSARAWAK.\n\nWe learn from the Sarawak Gazette that the Qhop Estate and other property of Baroness Coutts, at Lundu, was sold by public auction on the 19th September, realising about $1,500. The house and plantations at Tanah Puteh were bought for $800 by Ken What, a Chinese merchant in the Bazaar, who intends to present a large piece of ground to his countrymen for a public burying-place, and keep up the house for the accommodation of pleasure seekers from Kuching.\n\nThe steamer Firefly, formerly the yacht belonging to the Honourable the Resident of Sarawak, is to run in the Rejang river, between Sibu, Kanowit, Matu, and Rejang, a run of rather more than one hundred miles.\n\n[Nov. 18, 1872\n\n4. The actual excess of revenue over expenditure for the year 1871 was $151,592.\n\n5. The sub-committee think this Supply Bill may be at once explored.\n\n(Signed)\n\nJ. W. W. BIRCH.\n\nJ. J. GREENSHIELDS.\n\nT. SHELFORD.\n\nThe Government, with a view to the public convenience, has procured a considerable quantity of silver and copper small coin, which the Treasury obligingly issues at par. The Kling money-changers, however, are turning this to account, by drawing coin from the Treasury, for which they charge 2 per cent. on issuing it in the square and elsewhere, persistently refusing to abate a single pie, on the ground that small change is very scarce. Even Chinese shopkeepers demand 1 per cent. It would be a boon to every chief if a plan were devised whereby this annoying imposition might be avoided.\n\nThe state of affairs in Deli is thus sketched in the Batavia Handelsblad. The reports as to how matters stand in Deli are far from favourable. The troops suffer much from sickness, above all from fevers, and as we have said before from diarrhoea and swollen feet. If the Hill Battas make common cause with the enemy, the situation will become an untenable one. As to the bentings, we are informed that they call forth admiration as well by their position as by their plan and strength. Without suspecting it, one finds one's self sometimes suddenly opposite a benting barely fifty paces off. These bentings are so built that grenades scarcely do any harm; by means of a thick bamboo covering, they have been made shell-proof. It will be seen that our brave troops have a hard task before them.\n\nA writer in the Straits Times says: In the eighth paragraph of the Governor's Minute on the sale of the land in connection with the building and repairing of the markets, laid before the Legislative Council on Sept. 26 last, his Excellency reports that at Malacca about 8,000 square feet of land near the Tron Bridge had been sold for $5,000, which sum is to be appropriated for the erection of a commodious market; I was at the spot very shortly after the sale, and was surprised to learn that a plot of land, containing, in my opinion, more than 8,000 square feet, adjoining the plot sold by Sir Harry Ord, had been given to a rich Chinese at Malacca by the Government for his sole use and benefit. The fortunate recipient of this noble gift has erected a block of substantial shops on the site, which is likely to yield a rental of $90 per mensem at least. It appears to me very desirable that the public should be informed upon what grounds such valuable public property has been given to a private individual. A commission is needed to inquire into, and report fully upon, the whole of the circumstances connected with this singular transaction, for which Sir Harry Ord is not responsible--the gift having been made, I believe, under the auspices of Capt. Shaw, the Lieut.-Governor, and Colonel Anson whilst officiating as Governor.\n\nWe cull the following items of News from the Penang Argus: Mr. Baumgarten, the Registrar of the Supreme Court here, is about to retire on a pension, and is to be succeeded by Mr. Bradford from Penang, Mr. Harvey taking the latter's post. Colonel Anson will be back from home by February next. The Government have extended the term of service in the Straits to enable him to carry out the Judicial changes which are forthcoming. Recent failures in Singapore tot up to $700,000, the Chetties suffering to the extent of $450,000.\n\nThe Sarawak Sugar Company's creditors have held a meeting in the Court House, when a first and final dividend of 0 per cent. was declared.\n\nThe Government advertise that the coal seams of Simonjan in the Sudong river and Silantek in the Batang Lapar, about four to five feet thick, may be worked by an individual or company on a payment of ten cents per ton brought to grass. The Simunjan seams are about 34 miles from a navigable river, and the Silantek seams are close to a small stream navigable for boats only, and about twelve miles from a large navigable river. The Governor has applied for a further extension of his offer. The Government offers a free passage by the S.S. Royalist from and back to Singapore to any person desirous of examining the seams.\n\nGovernment proposes to erect suitable building for a Sanatarium on one of the minor peaks of the Matang mountain, if there is any prospect of invalids availing themselves of such a locality. Dr. Houghton specifies the following advantages:-A S.E. aspect, temperature ranging from 66 deg. to 88 deg., abundance of excellent water, perfect accessibility from Kuching by water, a magnificent view over Sarawak, Lundu, Sudong, &c., and a gentle ascent from the foot of the mountain, admitting of invalids being carried up in chairs by coolies, always obtainable from the Rajah's Coffee plantation, through which the road passes.\n\nSTRAITS SETTLEMENTS.\n\nSINGAPORE.\n\nThe dates by this mail extend to the 13th Oct. No later mail had been received from London.\n\nCommercial Report.\n\n(For dates see first page.)\n\nIMPORTS.\n\nYOKOHAMA. There had been a good demand for Grey Shirtings and prices showed an improvement; sales had been on a good scale, and the market at the close was firm, especially for the heavier weights. Cotton Yarn had not met with so much inquiry, and prices were scarcely so high as those last quoted. Mousselines were lower, and with the exception of Black Velvets and Lastings, which were in good demand, there had been no particular change in other Woollen fabrics. Quotations:-Grey Shirtings, 7 lbs., $2.30 to 2.35 per piece; 8 to 8 lbs., $2.62 to 2.57; 9 lbs., $2.95 to 3. Cotton Yarn, No. 18 to 24, $40.50 to 42 per picul; Nos. 28 to 32, $47.25 to 48.25; Nos. 38 to 42, $45 to 48.\n\nHIOGO-OSAKA. Cotton Yarn: A fair amount of business had been done, and a good demand continued for Nos. 28/32. Nos. 1/24 were saleable, but owing to heavy stocks, prices were weak. Nos. 38/42 neglected. Grey Shirtings: The market showed some weakness during part of the month, and prices declined about 2c. per piece; they had since recovered, however, and closed firm. Taffachelas, Turkey Reds, and Velvets, in good demand; other Cottons more or less neglected.\n\nThe sub-committee appointed to consider the Second Supplementary Supply Bill for 1871, having examined the statements framed by the Auditor-General and published in the Blue-book of 1871, and which are separately laid before Council to-day, beg to report as follows:-\n\n1. This Supply Bill appears necessary to cover the only expenditure which exceeds the items provided for in the estimates and supplementary estimates of 1871.\n\n2. The sub-committee desire, however, to call the attention of the Council to the fact that the revenue for 1871 showed a net increase over that of 1870 of $26,055, and the expenditure a net decrease of $5,264.\n\n3. The actual revenue, as compared with the estimates for the year, showed an excess of $40,111—and while the expenditure was estimated at $1,870,006, it proved to be only $1,244,111, thus showing a net saving of $121,895.\n\nTo some extent\n\n204\n\n809\n\nwhich, with a sprinkling of Fychows, turned the bulk of the settlements. Only two or three chops of Pingsang had found buyers. The market remained quiet but firm.\n\nFoochow-Business during the week had been on a moderate scale and there had been no alteration in prices. No transactions had taken place in Oolongs. Congou: Settlements 12,732 chests at Tls. 5 to Tls. 20. The bulk of the transactions had been in Teas costing between Tls. 15 to Tls. 18, and the greater part was intended for the Continent. Settlements for England had been small. Arrivals, 18,750 chests. Souchong: 1,075 chests taken at Tls. 15% to Tls. 27. Arrivals, 700 chests. Oolongs: Owing to the continued firmness of holders no transactions had taken place. Arrivals, 4,950 half-chests. Scented Teas Settlements, 1,470 boxes at Tls. 17 to Tls. 20.4. Arrivals, 2,000 boxes. Flowery Pekoes: Settled 86 chests at Tls. 27. Arrivals, 150 chests.\n\nTIENTSIN. There had been a slight improvement at this port, not only were the waters on the plains no higher, but the dealers had made some small profit on their late purchases of Drills, Jeans, and common T-Cloths. Black Lastings and Velvets had been in some request, but Grey and White Shirtings were dull of sale, and rates unremunerative.\n\nHANKOW. Settling day had passed satisfactorily, but the subsequent improved demand previously looked for had not been realised. Holders were disposed to accept lower rates for all Cotton Goods. Of Woollens: Camlets was the only fabric wanted, but this article was scarce and H.D.B., of good assortment, had been placed at Tls. 16.40 per piece, to extent of 300 pieces. Lead: L.B. was quoted Tls. 1.60 to 4.65 per picul, but business had been very slack.\n\nSHANGHAI. The enquiry for Plain Cottons had continued, but the result, so far, had been unimportant, and had fallen far short of the business usually passing at this season of the year. Buyers had been deterred from operating in Shirtings and T-Cloths at all events as freely as they wished, by the quantities of goods forced upon them, and the consequent declining tendency of prices.\n\nGrey Shirtings: 7-lb. Grey Shirtings in fair demand and scarce, 8lbs. in good enquiry but easier; 7 lbs. Tls. 1.65 to 1.67; 8 lbs. Tls. 1.77 to 1.79 for Mildews; and Tls. 1.78 to 1.88 for sound common to best ordinary; Dewhurst's Eagle chop, Tls. 1.88. White Shirtings: 66-reed, Tls. 2.00; 60-reed, Tls. 1.80; lowest counts, Tls. 1.50. T-Cloths: Fair sales, but anxiety to realise had caused a further fall in value. Common 6 lb. Tls. 1.13 to 1.15; Dewhurst's T. quality Tls. 1.32; Mexican qualities, Tls. 1.45 to 1.52. A sale of 8lbs. Dewhurst's M.T., Tls. 1.72. Drills and Jeans: Both commanded a ready market at quotations; 13 lbs. to 15 lbs. Dutch and English Drills, Tls. 3.2 to 3.15; Jeans, Tls. 2.5 to 2.12 for English, Tls. 2.27 for 8 lbs. Dutch. Fancy Cottons: Chintzes, assorted, Tls. 1.41 to 1.60; Gentian Shirtings, Tls. 2.60; best Turkey Reds, Woollens: Tls. 2.60 per piece; other articles altogether neglected. Market dull; Camlets, Tls. 16 to 15. Other goods had received no notice. Metals: Scarcely anything doing.\n\nHONG KONG. The demand for Raw Cotton had strengthened with the approach of cool weather, and fair sales were being made at slightly better prices. Yarns were very little inquired for, and Nos. 16/24 and 28/32 could only be placed at lower rates. Drills only were in demand, and these were wanted at better values. In Woollens, Blankets had declined. All kinds of tin were slow of sale. Tin Plates were $1 per box lower. Quicksilver was steady. Rice had been in some demand for shipment to Swatow, but at the close the market was quiet at former quotations.\n\nFoochow. Sales had been effected of 1,000 pieces 8 lbs. Grey Shirtings at $2.77; 2,500 pieces 7 lbs. T-Cloths at $2.05 to 2.85; and 400 pieces 8 lbs. T-Cloths at $3.75.\n\nSAIGON. Although stocks were rather moderate, sales, with the exception of 6 lbs. T-Cloth could only be effected at reduced rates. Quotations: 8 lbs. Grey Shirtings, $2.62 per piece; 7 lbs., $2.20; 6 lbs. T-Cloth, $1.70; 5 lbs., $1.42; 4 lbs., $1.25; 4 lbs., $1.10.\n\nEXPORTS.\n\nTEA.\n\nYOKOHAMA. The amount of business done had about been on a par with that previously noted; settlements, chiefly of the medium grades, amounted to about 8,000 piculs, and had been made at gradually advancing prices, the market closing at fully $2 to 3 over last quotations for all except the finer grades, which remained as last stated. The quality had been fair; there was still a marked absence of common leaf, anything below medium being of very inferior quality. Supplies had been meagre, and stocks were reduced. The export had been as follows: Per P.M.S.S. Co.'s steamer China, to New York, 189,010 lbs.; to Chicago, 42,065 lbs.; to Boston, 6,100 lbs.; to San Francisco, 100,934 lbs.; per Emulation, for New York, 500,795 lbs.; per Etta Loring, for New York, 206,761 lbs.; per Leander, for New York, 707,702 lbs.; per Emma Augusta, for San Francisco, about 200,000 lbs.; and per Ceylon, for New York, 445,000 lbs. Including these two latter cargoes and that of the outgoing steamer, the export would be nearly two million pounds in excess of that of last season at the same date. Quotations:-Common, $5 to 28 per picul; good common, $20 to 31; medium $33 to 36; good medium, $37 to 40; fine, $41 to 43; finest, $44 to 47; choice, $50 and upwards.\n\nHIOGO-OSAKA A fairly active business had been transacted. Prices at the commencement of the month to within a few days of the close were easier, but owing to large purchases having been made, a hardening tendency was apparent at the close for all grades. Low grades were still scarce and dear. Settlements for the month from 15th Aug- were returned at 5,500 piculs, making a total of 26,000 piculs for the season, against 16,000 piculs for the corresponding period last year. Stocks were estimated at 5,000 piculs. The Caller On was loading for New York, and the Engelbert would take about 75 tons to San Francisco. The Jessie Isabel was about to sail for New York, with 293,064 lbs. Quotations Common, $16 to 20 per picul; good common, $21 to 25; medium, $26 to 30; good medium, $31 to 35; fine, $36 to 40; finest, $42 to 46; choice, $48 to 53; choicest, $54 and upwards.\n\nHANKOW. More business and a general advance of Tls. 1 per picul was reported. Settlements and reshipments for the week about 11,000 chests, Stock 3,300 packages, against about 1,400 last year.\n\nExport to date 51,000,000 lbs., against 53,000,000 lbs. last year at same time. Exchange, 6 m.s. Credit paper had advanced to 8.5 per tael, and the rates on Shanghai had risen to 3 per cent. for sight drafts and 3¾ per cent. for 10 days' paper.\n\nSHANGHAI. Black: The business in Congous had been unimportant, but former rates had been fairly supported by the extreme firmness of holders. Settlements for the week, 5,489 chests, at Tls. 14.50 to 30 per picul; stock, 29,120 chests, Green: No feature worthy of any special comment had presented itself; a little more had been done since exchange weakened. Attention had chiefly been turned to Moyanes.\n\nAMOY. Only about 1,000 half-chests of Ooloongs had been settled, and buyers were not operating owing to the uncertainty about the course of the exchange market. Tea-men were anxious to sell, but would not make a sufficient concession to counterbalance the advance in exchange. The steamship Teviot had sailed for New York with about 3,000 half-chests Amoy Ooloongs; the steamship Surprise was expected, and the Anglo-Saxon was the only vessel on the berth for that destination. Arrivals of Ooloongs to date, 174,916 half-chests: settlements 158,813, and stock 16,103 half-chests.\n\nCANTON. There had been but little inquiry for any descriptions, and the market had continued very quiet.\n\nSILK.\n\nYOKOHAMA. The market had continued to be fairly active, and a good business had been done, settlements amounting to about 1,800 bales, Hanks sorts as usual forming the bulk. Prices for both Hanks and Oshus (with the exception of Hamatskis which showed a still further decline) had advanced about $20 per picul. Quotations:-Hanks, Mybash and Sinchu, extra 32s. 6d., best 30s. 3¼d. to 31s. 0d., medium 28s. to 29s. 6d., inferior 24s. 6d. to 27s. 3d.; Oshu, extra 32s. 6d., best 31s. 6d. to 31s. 3d., medium 28s. 9d. to 29s. 10d., inferior 27s. 3d. to 28s.; Hamatski, medium 26s. 6d. to 27s. 6d.; Coshu, best 28s. 0d., medium 24s. 3d. to 26s. 7. Silk Worms' Eggs: Total arrivals to date about 750,000 cards, and settlements estimated at 450,900 cards; prices for green annuals quoted as follows- Best $8 to 9.75 per candil, good $2.50 to 3, medium $2 to 2.50, inferior $1.75 to 2; white annuals were worth $3 to 3.90 per card.\n\nSHANGHAI. At the close of last mail a considerable business was done, and buying had continued, partly stimulated by a lower exchange, and about 1,700 bales had found buyers at prices varying very little from those given in our last report. Good Silk had been steady and in fair demand, while common descriptions were neglected and declining. Tsatlee Market nearly cleared of Chop Silk, as also of good medium sorts, and in some instances contracts had been made for delivery of these latter for next mail. Hangchow: Sellers of medium at Tls. 400 to 465, but no buyers. Hainings: In consequence of the absence of demand for Raw Hainings last season, the bulk of the crop had this year been re-reeled. Export of Raw Haining little over 200 bales Stock of 1,100 bales last year, and holders of good Silks very firm. 250 bales included 100 bales of Fatmow's chop, which were held for Tls. 520 for No. 9 Taysaam: No settlements of Kaling reported. No. 3 to 3 Chincum bought at Tls. 400, Shaouhing at Tls. 380, and ordinary Laeyang at Tls. 345. Re-reeled: Fair Haining Tls. 500 to 570, medium offering at Tls. 510 to 550, Tsatlee still in over-supply, and prices weak.\n\nCANTON. Little or no change had taken place, and inactivity had prevailed. Prices were slightly easier, but no actual reduction had been made. The fifth crop, which continued to arrive, was of very poor quality--flabby but dry. The sixth crop, it was reported, will be no larger than the fifth, cold winds, which had come earlier than usual, having damaged the mulberry trees. The high rate of exchange and discouraging news from home still kept buyers out of the market, and in consequence the settlements were very small--under 50 bales; the present mail would, however, take forward some 300 bales of previous settlements. Stock, 2,000 bales Tsatlee, and with the sixth Crop and remainder of the fifth at least 3,500 bales more would be offered on the market this season. Several contracts for Rereels had been entered into, but for cargo ready for shipment there was no demand; some dealers were keeping back their stocks on the strength of the inferiority of the crops to arrive.\n\nThe Messageries Maritimes Co's steamer Pello, with the present inward French mail, arrived at Marseilles on the 12th inst. at eight A.M. She brings 68 passengers, 1,014 bales of silk, 1,912 packages tea, 309 packages copper, 1,868 bales tobacco, and 340 packages sundries for London. The cargo will be forwarded to London by the Company's steamer Copernic, and may be expected here about the 26th inst.\n\nBIRTHS, MARRIAGES, AND DEATHS.\n\nBIRTHS.\n\nALLEN-On the 10th Nov, at Singapore, Straits Settlements, the wife of Willworth Allen, Esq., of a daughter.\n\nBADGE-On the 20th Sept., at Hiogo, the wife of G.

Under this heading, there is a sensible decrease, amounting to 3,460 men, 1,549 women, 204 boys and 80 girls.\n\n11. The opposition evinced in the United States of America to the introduction of Chinese labor is having its effect, whether for good or evil remains to be seen.\n\n12. Emigration under Contract is at present prohibited at Hongkong, except to British Possessions, but to these the restrictions and difficulties are so great, that only 70 Chinese left, for Labuan, during the year.\n\nI have the honor to be,\n\nSir,\n\nYour most obedient Servant,\n\nH.

Il est permis aux sujets Néerlandais d'importer et de vendre la bière et les vins en payant le même droit que le droit d'accise imposé par les lois Siamoises sur les articles semblables fabriqués à Siam, mais ce droit imposé sur la bière et sur les vins importés ne dépassera jamais 10 pour cent ad valorem. Les droits sur les esprits importés, les vins, et la bière, remplaceront le droit d'importation de 3 pour cent établi par les Traités en vigueur et ne seront pas considérés comme additionnels à ce droit.\n\nLes esprits, la bière, et les vins ne pourront être soumis à aucun autre droit, taxe, ou impôt. L'échelle des droits d'accise imposée sur les esprits, les bières, et les vins fabriqués à Siam sera communiquée par le Gouvernement Siamois au Gouvernement de Sa Majesté le Roi des Pays-Bas, et aucun changement de ces droits ne pourra être appliqué aux sujets Néerlandais jusqu'à l'expiration de six mois après la susdite communication du Gouvernement Siamois.\n\n## ARTICLE II\n\nL'analyse ou vérification des boissons importées dans le Royaume de Siam par les sujets Néerlandais sera faite par des experts désignés l'un par l'autorité Siamoise, l'autre par le négociant importateur et à son défaut par le Représentant Consulaire des Pays-Bas,\n\nEn cas de désaccord les Parties désigneront un tiers arbitre.\n\n## ARTICLE III\n\nLe Gouvernement Siamois aura la faculté d'arrêter l'importation à Siam par les sujets Néerlandais des esprits qui, examen fait, seront jugés nuisibles à la santé publique. Il donnera avis de cette décision aux importateurs, consignataires, ou détenteurs des dits esprits pour qu'ils en fassent l'exportation dans le délai de trois mois à partir de cet avis. Dans le cas où l'exportation ne sera pas opérée il lui sera permis, après avoir dûment obtenu l'approbation du Représentant Consulaire des Pays-Bas, laquelle ne sera pas refusée dans pareil cas, de saisir et de détruire les dits esprits en remboursant toutefois les droits qui auraient été perçus en tous les cas. L'analyse ou vérification des esprits réputés nuisibles à la santé, et importés par les sujets Néerlandais, sera faite selon l'Article II.\n\nLe Gouvernement Siamois s'engage à prendre toutes les mesures nécessaires afin de prohiber et d'empêcher la vente des esprits fabriqués à Siam qui peuvent être nuisibles à la santé publique.\n\n## ARTICLE IV\n\nTout sujet Néerlandais qui voudra vendre en détail à Siam les boissons spiritueuses, la bière, et les vins, devra se munir d'un permis spécial (licence) délivré par le Gouvernement Siamois, et qui ne pourra être refusé que pour un motif juste et raisonnable.\n\nCe permis pourra être subordonné à des conditions qui seront établies d'accord entre les deux Gouvernements et pourront être de même modifiées.\n\n## ARTICLE V\n\nLes sujets Néerlandais jouiront toujours des mêmes droits et privilèges par rapport à l'importation et à la vente des esprits, de la bière, des vins et boissons spiritueuses et par rapport au permis (licence) que ceux dont jouiront les sujets Siamois ou les sujets de la nation la plus favorisée, et ils auront la faculté du choix entre ces deux traitements; de même les esprits, la bière, les vins et les boissons spiritueuses importés des Pays-Bas jouiront sous tous les rapports des mêmes privilèges dont jouiront les articles similaires importés de tout autre pays auquel sera accordé le traitement le plus favorisé à cet égard.\n\nIl est bien entendu que les sujets Néerlandais ne seront tenus à se conformer aux dispositions de la présente Convention qu'autant que les citoyens ou sujets des autres nations y seront également soumis et les observeront en toute circonstance.\n\n## ARTICLE VI\n\nSous le bénéfice des stipulations de l'Article V, la présente Convention sera mise en exécution à la date à fixer par les deux Gouvernements et restera en vigueur jusqu'à l'expiration du délai de six mois après que l'une des deux Parties Contractantes aura notifiée à l'autre l'intention de faire cesser ses effets.\n\nLe Traité du 17 Décembre, mil huit cent soixante, entre les Royaumes de Siam et des Pays-Bas restera entièrement en vigueur jusqu'au jour où la présente Convention commencera à être exécutoire, et après cette date par rapport aux dispositions qui ne seront pas modifiées par la présente Convention.\n\nSi cette Convention vient à être annulée les dispositions antérieures du susdit Traité seront mises de nouveaux en vigueur et resteront exécutoires comme auparavant.\n\n## ARTICLE VII\n\nLes dispositions de la présente Convention sont applicables aux Colonies du Royaume des Pays-Bas et à ses possessions hors de l'Europe aussi bien qu'au Royaume lui-même, aux sujets Néerlandais, et à tout sujet naturalisé ou protégé par le Gouvernement de Sa Majesté le Roi des Pays-Bas.\n\nIl est entendu que les Consuls-Généraux, Consuls, Vice-Consuls, Agents Consulaires, Chanceliers, ou tous autres Agents Consulaires sont compris sous la désignation de Représentant Consulaire faite dans cette Convention,\n\nEn foi de quoi les Plénipotentiaires respectifs ont signé les présents Articles Additionnels en double, et y ont apposé leurs sceaux.\n\nFait à La Haye, le dixième jour du mois de Novembre de l'an de grâce mil huit cent quatre-vingt-trois.\n\n(L.S.)

The China Coast Meteorological Register was printed daily at the Observatory, and information regarding storms was telegraphed to and exhibited on notice-boards in Hongkong and ports in China and neighbouring countries as often and as fully as such information could be justified by the weather telegrams received. This happened on 69 days in 1897.\n\n7. Telegraphic connection with Victoria was interrupted on the 16th April, 1897, from 10 a.m. to noon; from the 8th May at 8.12 a.m. to 9th May at 8.12 a.m.; on the 18th May from 11.45 a.m. to 2.26 p.m.; from the 21st at 5.50 p.m. to 23rd May at 6.48 a.m.; on the 23rd May from 10.15 a.m. to 1.34 p.m.; on the 24th May from 1.10 a.m. to 9.8 a.m.; on the 27th May from 4.13 p.m. to 5 p.m.; from the 30th May at 11.55 p.m. to 31st May at 1.34 a.m.; on the 5th June from 4 p.m. to 6.45 p.m.; on the 17th June, from 1.10 a.m. to 6.26 a.m. and from 7.26 a.m. to 10.30 a.m.; on the 15th July from 2.58 p.m. to 7.54 p.m.; on the 28th August from 9.50 a.m. to 10.43 a.m.; on the 5th November from 11.25 a.m. to 0.20 p.m. Interruptions occurred therefore on 16 days, and, of course, during thunderstorms. Telephone connection with the Peak was interrupted on the 15th January from 6 a.m. to 11 a.m.; from the 8th April at 8 a.m. to 10th April at 6 a.m.; from the 1st August at 11 a.m. to 2nd August at 10 a.m.; from the 17th September at 5 p.m. to 18th September at 6 a.m.; from the 6th October at 6 a.m. to 20th October at 1 p.m.; from the 13th November at 6 a.m. to 15th November at 6 a.m., i.e., on 26 days as well as during thunderstorms.\n\n8. During 1897, in addition to meteorological registers kept at 40 stations on shore, 2,635 ship logs have been copied on board or forwarded by the captains. The total number of vessels, whose log books have been made use of, was 283. The total number of days' observations (counting separately those made on board different ships on the same day) was 20,899.\n\n## Table I.

Hermann Rennde or Pennde.\n\n2nd. Ernest Garbode, of S.S. \"Kaiserin Augusta\".\n\n3rd. August Meyer,\n\n4th. Hermann Pitzner of S.S. \"Furst Bismarck\".\n\nThe first three were allowed out on bail of $75 each, which was deposited by Lieutenant Mielke, and the 4th was bailed out for $35 by an Officer named Wenzel.\n\nNone of the four surrendered to their bail at the Magistracy yesterday, and Warrants were issued for their arrest.\n\nThe assault appears to have been a most dastardly one, and P.C. Pitt is badly knocked about, and narrowly escaped losing his eye.\n\nI have the \"fighting iron\" in my possession. It is, I believe, what is commonly called \"a knuckle-duster\" and is a nasty weapon.\n\nThe warrants cannot, of course, be executed on the German war-ships, and it is unlikely that the men will venture ashore.\n\nI consider, however, that the case is too serious to be passed over with the mere forfeiture of bail, and would ask that the German Naval Officer Commanding may be requested to give the men up for trial, or if that cannot be done, that he will cause an enquiry to be held on the ships and inflict severe punishment on the accused persons if the charges against them are substantiated.\n\nI have &c.,\n\nThe Honourable\n\nThe Colonial Secretary.\n\n(sgd.

Hermann Rennte (or Penndel)\n\n2. Ernest Carbode\n\n3. August Meyer\n\nall of S.M.S. \"Kaiserin Augusta\".\n\n4. Hermann Pitzner of S.M.S. \"Furst Bismarck\".\n\nAfter they had been taken to the Police Station, the three first were allowed out on bail of $75 each, which was deposited by Lieutenant Fielke, and the fourth was bailed out for $25 by an Officer named Paul Menzel. None of the four surrendered to their bail at the Magistracy, and Warrants were, in the usual course, issued for their arrest.\n\nI need hardly point out to you the extremely serious nature of this occurrence, and the grave view which is necessarily taken by His Excellency the Officer Administering the Government of this Colony. The assault was committed in a most dastardly manner upon Officers who were engaged in the execution of their duty, and one of the Constables was badly wounded and narrowly escaped the loss of an eye. The fact that the men did not surrender to their bail, and that no explanation of that fact was forthcoming from the Officers of the two ships concerned, considerably aggravates the gravity of the incident.\n\nIn these circumstances I am to request you to be so good as to inform this Government at your early convenience of the steps which the German Naval Authorities on this station propose to take with regard to this matter.\n\nI have etc.,\n\n(sgd.)

Probably he behaved in a noisy or disorderly way; so a policeman pulled him back and beat him with his stick, whereupon the two went into a fight. The three defendants, J. Remle, J. Garbode and A. Meyer, accompanied by some other sailors, came upon the scene. The three defendants tried to prevail upon the policeman, at first in a friendly way, to let go the sailor Bloem as being drunk, by and by a crowd assembled and finally a general fight ensued. The defendants Remle and Meyer admit to have taken a hand in this fight and to have returned blows which they received by blows which they dealt to their assailants, whether policemen or not; the defendant Garbode says that he took no hand in the fight. While all this was going on, one of the other sailors had led the man Bloem away; so the one who actually started the whole row was not arrested at all.\n\nThe fourth defendant, H. Pitzner, is entirely innocent; his arrest is simply a case of mistaken identity. He was quietly standing at a street-corner when the crowd accompanying the other defendants to the police station passed by; suddenly he was seized, beaten several times over the head and dragged to the station house. This is proven by the depositions taken on board H.M.S. \"Fuerst Bismarck\" which left port on March 7th, 1903, for Woosung and Tsingtau.",

No. 949.\n\nSir,\n\nEnclosure No. 5 to Despatch No. 139 of the 10th April, 1902.\n\nHongkong, 19th March, 1903.\n\n517\n\n17th instant\n\nI have immediately forwarded your letter of the No. 314 to the present commander of H.M.S. \"Kaiserin Augusta\" who took command of the ship on the 13th instant. He informs me that his predecessor was of the opinion that, like he had seen in other colonies, in cases where a foreign mariner was let out on bail, it was the customary way not to make him appear in Court but to forfeit the bail. I am very sorry to see from your letter that your Government conceived the idea that the former commander of the \"Kaiserin Augusta\" meant to defy the competent authorities by withdrawing his men from Court and punishing them himself. I beg you to be convinced that nothing in this line occurred to the commander's mind; the fact is simply that he acted upon the presumption which, it appears, was erroneous - that it would be convenient to the competent authorities to see the affair settled by the guilty parties forfeiting their bail.\n\nAs to the instrument known as a \"fighting iron\", the first defendant (Remle) admits to have used it in self-defence; for having made use of such a weapon special punishment has been meted out to him.\n\nIt would be a matter of deep regret to me if His Excellency the Acting Governor felt compelled to issue special orders against German mariners in this Colony. I may justly say that generally German mariners are well enough disciplined not to commit excesses against the public order of a foreign port; if, by exception, such an excess has happened and if the guilty parties have not been brought to Court but punished on board, I beg you to feel sure that the German Naval Authorities proceeded in full bona fide and that they did not intend to act in a way not agreeable to or disapproved by the Authorities of this Colony.\n\nHoping that the above statement will be considered satisfactory and that the good relations between your Government and this Consulate will not be strained by an incident not due to me.\n\nI have etc.,\n\n(S1.)

        "content_text": "## Inclosure in No. 1.\n\n### Report by Mr. Seeds respecting the Reception of the Diplomatic Body on offering their condolences to the Prince Regent before the Biers of the late Emperor and Empress Dowager.\n\nPUNCTUALLY at 9 o'clock on the morning of the 21st November Sir J. Jordan and the members of the Legation staff whose privilege it was to accompany His Majesty's Minister were borne off in official chairs along the road leading to the Forbidden City, where the Diplomatic Corps were to present their condolences to the Prince Regent before the biers of the late Emperor and Empress Dowager. According to the rule laid down by the Wai-wu Pu, no foreign Minister was to be accompanied by more than two members of his staff, but, in graceful recognition of His Majesty's Minister as the Representative of the King of Norway, an exception was made in favour of the British Legation, and Sir J. Jordan alone among the foreign \"Chefs de Mission\" was attended by a suite of four, comprising Mr. Campbell, Chinese Secretary; Mr. Addison, Second Secretary; Mr. Mayers, Assistant Chinese Secretary; and the writer of this Report.\n\nOutside the eastern gate of the Forbidden City were drawn up the usual miscellaneous assortment of Chinese soldiery, who presented arms in their own inimitable manner as the chairs were carried through their lines. Having crossed the first courtyard, the chairs were met at the entrance to a narrow passage by exceedingly perturbed officials, who hurriedly lined the cortège along the wall in order to clear the road for a procession which could be seen slowly advancing down the lane. At its head marched coolies carrying mysterious burdens carefully shrouded in silk cloths of Imperial yellow; immediately after these, surrounded by a white-clad suite, and supported on either side by a high official, walked a Manchu lady, her eyes fixed on the ground and her thickly powdered face set in an expression of ceremonious grief. Not till later were we told that, owing to our unexpectedly early arrival, we had had the honour of seeing the present Empress Dowager, widow of the late Emperor, on her way to carry out certain religious observances in connection with the obsequies of her departed spouse.\n\nThe great inner courtyard where the chairs finally came to a halt presented a picture such as would have satisfied the most romantically-minded Occidental that ever came to the Far East in search of memories of a barbaric past. Here were row upon row of ponies and camels whose heads peered patiently out from under their yellow trappings; along the walls, ruinous in parts, it is true, but on the whole bright with green and yellow tiles, were ranged the tents of the camel-drivers much the same as they might have appeared on the Mongolian plains, while lines of Chinese carts and chairs, all draped in the Imperial colours, completed the illusion and made of the whole scene a representation, as it were, of the temporary encampment of some nomadic chieftain. Immemorial custom alone required the presence of this multitude of carts and beasts of burden; they had not been collected in order to serve any practical purpose, but were to stand idle in the courtyard, day after day, as pompous witnesses to the greatness of the deceased Emperor. For the rest, the vast enclosure seethed with a crowd of officials, clad in the regulation mourning garb, black hat and white sheepskin cloak worn with the fur outwards, in contrast to whom the so-called \"hereditary bondsmen,\" with their lilac coats and green sashes, supplied a brilliant note of colour, which even their doubtful cleanliness could scarce impair, while the all too numerous faces of the repulsive eunuch class showed that the new régime had not yet grappled, as had been hoped, with the chief curse of the Imperial Palace.\n\nAfter being regaled with tea and cigarettes in pavilions specially erected for their reception, the Diplomatic Body were escorted by a flock of officials to the great hall where the late Empress Dowager had been wont to receive foreign ladies in audience, and where her body was now awaiting its final removal to the last resting-place amidst the Imperial tombs. The enormous gates of the hall were flung wide open, letting in a flood of light over the catafalque and its richly embroidered hangings of yellow silk. Immediately in front stood a small altar table supporting candlesticks and other religious vessels of a severely plain design; on each side of the bier low screens were so placed as to enclose a semicircular space barely large enough to contain the little band of foreign diplomatists as they stood just within the entrance, but no attempt had been made to shut out the imposing background afforded by the pillars and walls of the building, the magnificent decorations of which shone out undimmed by any such dismal trappings as accompany funeral ceremonies in Western countries. Through the openings between the screens could be seen, in defiance of all rules of etiquette hitherto observed, highly interested groups of Court ladies, whose heavily powdered faces rivalled their mourning robes in whiteness. To the right of the Diplomatic Body, close to the bier, stood the Prince Regent, indistinguishable from any other Chinese of high rank in his plain black hat and white fur coat—a delicate-looking young man, whose highly nervous manner and gentle expression strangely recalled the late Emperor. Prince Ch'un accompanied by Prince Ching, looking singularly aged and feeble, Na-t'ung, and Yuan Shih-k'ai, whose vigorous appearance satisfactorily gave the lie to the rumours lately current attributing to him various forms of violent death.\n\nIn accordance with the prescribed ceremonial, the Spanish Minister, as doyen of the Diplomatic Corps, after bowing thrice to the bier and once to the Prince Regent, read out the following speech:\n\n\"Monseigneur, La force mystérieuse et invisible qui dirige nos destins et contre laquelle il n'y a ni défense ni lutte possible a fait disparaître du monde des vivants Sa Majesté l'Impératrice Douairière, cette femme admirable, intelligente et de haut caractère, qui avait voué sa vie à étudier et satisfaire les besoins de la Chine.\n\n\"J'accomplis le triste devoir de manifester à votre Altesse Impériale combien est grande la part que le Corps Diplomatique prend au chagrin de la Famille Impériale devant la disparition à jamais de l'Impératrice Douairière.\"\n\nAfter this address had been translated into Chinese, the Prince Regent, whose fingers were trembling with nervousness, produced, out of the recesses of his sleeve, a paper from which he read his reply, translated by his interpreter into French as follows:\n\n\"Nous remercions vivement vos Excellences des preuves de touchante sympathie qu'elles nous donnent dans ce deuil national en venant saluer la dépouille funèbre de notre Auguste Souveraine feu Sa Majesté l'Impératrice Douairière. Nous sommes très sensibles aux condoléances qui nous sont exprimées; elles monteront jusqu'à l'âme de Son Auguste Majesté, qui est au ciel.\n\n'C'est avec une grande tristesse et une vive reconnaissance que nous adressons à vos Excellences nos sincères remercîments.'\n\nThe Diplomatic Corps then retired backwards out of the hall, keeping their faces turned to the bier and bowing as they went.\n\nAfter a short interval, the foreign diplomatists followed the Prince Regent to the main audience hall, where the body of the late Emperor was lying, and where a similar ceremony was gone through. Following is the text of the speeches delivered:\n\nThe Spanish Minister: \"C'est dans le silence de la tristesse que nous nous approchons du cercueil qui contient la dépouille mortelle de votre auguste frère pour vous dire combien est grande, profonde et sincère la douleur que le Corps Diplomatique éprouve devant ce malheur. Plus qu'une espérance, le jeune Empereur, que nous regrettons tous, était une réalité pour le bonheur de son peuple, qu'il chérissait. C'est à lui qu'il a donné sa dernière pensée, et c'est en se souvenant de son futur bien-être qu'il a exhalé son dernier soupir.\n\n\"Le Corps Diplomatique ici réuni souhaite que le temps, qui est le baume qui assoupit toutes les douleurs, puisse assoupir le vôtre.”\n\nThe Prince Regent: \"Nous sommes très touchés des condoléances que vos Excellences ont bien voulu nous adresser, et de la preuve de sympathie qu'elles nous donnent en devant saluer la dépouille de notre Auguste Souverain feu Sa Majesté l'Empereur.\n\nCette preuve de sympathie si aimable, si touchante, nous touche; non seulement nous, mais elle touchera jusqu'à l'âme de Son Auguste Majesté, qui est au ciel.\n\n\"C'est du fond du cœur que nous adressons à vos Excellences nos sincères remercîments.\"\n\nThe catafalque covering the Imperial coffin resembled that which hid the bier of the Empress Dowager, being a plain rectangular erection about 9 feet high, overlaid...",

Londres KEC le 3 Mars 191923\n\nMonsieur le Comte:-\n\nL'Ambassadeur de France à Washington a reçu une requête d'un Alsacien, le Dr Auguste Gaston, résidant actuellement à Philadelphie.\n\nM.A. Gaston est né à Strasbourg, de parents français, en Juin 1870, sous le régime par conséquent français. Après avoir fait ses études à l'Université de cette ville, il se fixa en 1896 en Chine pour y exercer la médecine et passa la plus grande partie de sa vie entre la Chine et l'Indo-Chine.\n\nLors de la déclaration de guerre, désireux de s'enrôler dans l'armée française, ainsi que son fils alors âgé de 16 ans, il s'embarqua sur le paquebot américain \"China\" allant de Shanghai à San Francisco. Ce vapeur fut arrêté durant la traversée par le croiseur anglais \"Laurentic\" et le Dr Gaston avec son fils, considérés comme Allemands, furent envoyés comme prisonniers, d'abord à Hong Kong, puis dans un camp de concentration à Liverpool (Australie).\n\nDurant ces transferts, les bagages de M. Gaston contenant des valeurs, une écume d'argent importante et des objets de prix, furent soustraits ou égarés. Les réclamations qu'il adressa aux Autorités Britanniques n'aboutirent à aucun résultat.\n\nLe Dr. A. Gaston s'adresse actuellement au Gouvernement Français, en vue d'obtenir, par son intervention, la réparation du dommage qu'il a subi.\n\nA cet effet, il joint un affidavit,\n\nLe Comte Curzon of Kedleston, Secrétaire d'Etat pour les Affaires Etrangères.",
