I apply to Britannia, queen of seas and colonies, the words in which her latest novelist portrays his heroine: \"ake la as mild as she is game, and as game as she is mild.\" The English delight in the un- taganden which comhlars in one person the extremes of courage and tenderness. Nelson, dying at Trafalgar, sends his love to Lord Collingwood, and, like an inco- eent schoolboy that goes to bed, says, \"Kiss me Hardy,\" und turns to sleep. Lord Collingwood, his comrade, was of a nature the most affectionate and domestic. Admiral Rudney's figure approached to delicacy med effeminary, and he declared himself very sensible to fen, which he surmounted only by considerations of honour and public duty. Clarradan says, the Duke of Buckingham was so modest and gentle, that some com tiers altempted to put effrouts on him, until they found that this modesty and effeminacy was only a wark for the most terrible determination. And Sir James Perry said, the other day, of Sir Joha Franklin, that, \"If he found Wellington Sound open, he explored it; for he was a man who never turned his back on a danger, yet of that tenderness, that he would not brush away a Mon- quito,\" Even for tusir highway men the same virtues is elclmued, and Robin Hued tomes described to us an altissimus prædimum, the gentlest thief. But they know where their war.dogs le Crowell, Blake, Maribo- rough, Chatham, Nelson, and Wellington are not to be trified with, and the brutal strength which lies of the hottem of society, the animal ferocity of the quays and Cockpits, the builies of the costernongers of Shoreditch, Seven Dials, and Spitalfields, they know how to wake up.

Her owner hearing of this in Macao came over to get all the information he could and reported the same to the Police on the 18th, but as he then knew not where his Lorcha was taken to by the Pirates, of course nothing could have been done to recover the same.\n\nHe went back to Macao and arrived there on the 28th where he learned all the particulars of the capture of his Lorcha by ...\n\nsterious circumstances--but perhaps by relating the same it will speak for itself, and bring to light the case of the Lorcha No. 71 above mentioned.\n\nOn the evening of the 27th January the Portuguese ...\n\n1--Par.

PEEL AND THE FOREIGN PRESS. The French papers are much amused with Sir Robert Peel's speech, and give copious extracts from it, together with translations from the comments of the London journals. The Assemblée of Saturday devotes an article of four columns to the matter, but it is only remarkable for the feeble attempts made to translate the Yankee expression \"soft sawder.\" The redacteurs of the Assemblée, who probably put their heads together and consulted their dictionaries, give the result of their learned researches in the following note:-*** It is all soft sawder, an expression more American than English, and one which it is impossible to translate literally, sawder' leans a sawyer who handles his saw lazily, and does but little work. A 'soft sawder' is what, in the language of working people, is called un lambin, un grande iche, une poule mouillée.\" Having by this lexicographical process obtained a choice of epithets, the Assemblée selects lambin as the most appropriate, and nervously in the text of the article it is represented that Sir Robert Peel, instead of saying that the grand duke's frankness and cordiality was all \"soft sawder,\" called him a \"great drené\" (lambin.)\n\nIn the matter of the Asiatic Marine Insurance Office.

If any new private instructions have been given to Contractors or others to set aside this Government order. 2. If not, it is a high disgrace that Government should allow its servants to employ labourers on public work on a \"day of rest.\"\n\nI merely state what I saw almost under the windows of our Lieutenant Governor's house and opposite the house of the Registrar General and the Collector of Police &c., several Chinese workmen were employed in repairing the road; lower down the street, near the house of the Attorney General, and just outside Formosa, on the 24th instant, spoke the American brig \"Getes,\" whose gang of workmen were busily employed in setting up the large iron gates at the bottom of Gough Street.\n\nVox Populi is not admissible on the ground, amongst others, that the writer falls into the errors which he condemns.

BOWRING,\n\nTo the Honorable COLONEL DUNLOP,\n\nThe Colonel issues the following Memo., attaching to it the Governor's letter, which requires that all the stolen property be forthwith returned to the Government Office:\n\n[No. 17—APRIL 29, 1857.]\n\nMemo. The undersigned offers notice that parties who have any articles which were taken at Cowloon will immediately return them to this Office. Officers are requested to state their names, or that they have returned all to this Office.\n\nBy order,\n\n(Signed) JOHN KING, Captain,\n\nTown Major.\n\nTOWN MAJOR'S OFFICE, 25th April, 1857.\n\nThe officers naturally felt annoyed at having such accusations made against them, and their several replies are amusing enough. They run thus:\n\n1. \"Have nothing—I never took anything.\"\n\n2. \"I have not stolen anything.\"\n\n3. \"I have not stolen anything.\"\n\n4. \"Seen.\"\n\n5. \"Not a legal question—stole nothing.\"\n\n6. \"Stole nothing.\"\n\n7. \"Stole nothing.\"\n\n8. \"Stole nothing: the two hats Dr. Bridges said there was no bar in taking. I have already returned.\"\n\n9. \"I have stolen nothing.\"\n\n10. \"Has stolen nothing.\"\n\n11. \"I took nothing away from Cowloon.\"\n\n12. \"I have not stolen anything.\"\n\nThis was not all; one of them afterwards wrote a letter demanding an apology under the threat of \"court of inquiry.\" We have not this intermediate correspondence, but the fellow who signs himself \"X X X\" in the China Mail, has said, so it has come to pass, the Registration Ordinance is progressing, and we have an altered and amended—if not improved draft copy of the Ordinance in the last Government Gazette.\n\nThe Band of the 59th Regiment will be performing to-morrow on the Parade Ground, weather permitting, at 4½ p.m., the following pieces:—\n\nMarch—\"Souvenir des Alpes\"—Leitzer.\n\nPolka—\"Jalve.\"\n\nSelection 4—\"Quadrilles Mouton.\"\n\nWaltz—\"Auf dem Lufte, Gung'—Strauss.\n\nGallop—\"Corsa\"—Kulorer.\n\nWe beg to return our sincere thanks to His Excellency Sir John Bowring Knt. LL.D. &c. for so kindly furnishing us with the precis of the contents of the papers taken at the attack on Cowloon, &c.\n\nBetween that and \"stolen\" there is a mighty difference in the minds of some people. We will illustrate the difference by telling the following story:—A Leith wine merchant whose business had been declining, and upon whom a strong desire for military fame just at the same time fell, was glad to take service with Don Pedro when he contended with Miguell for the throne of Portugal.\n\nIt would have been for him had he in the course of his universal acquirements stumbled upon the precaution of the good Chamundas; or had looked nearer one at the protector-te of Olyfe the hammer, when the community was governed without Laws. Back leginnion, however, was not suited to the busy, meddling mind of Wilmi le Teary. On the contrary, he conceived that the true wisdom of legislation consisted in the multiplicity of laws. He accordingly had great punishments for great crimes, and little punishments for little offences. By degrees the whole surface of society was cut up by ditches and fences, and quickset hedges of the law, and even the sequestered paths of private life so hemmed by petty rules and ordinances, too numerous to be remembered, that one now] could walk a large within the risk of having off a spring-gun or falling into a man-trap—\"Knicker\"-bocker's History of New York.\"\n\nTo the Editor of the \"China Mail.\"\n\nThe COVENT, 1st April, 1857.\n\nDEAR MR.

It would of course be expecting too much from a man who was only a radical member of parliament any such liberality—that style of individual does not act in such a way. All his liberality is expended in clap-trap, and when the time of action comes, he is found to be nothing but a windbag—As for the Mail we could expect no courtesy from it in such a case.\n\nThe Coromandel returned to harbour on the morning of the 26th, from the survey of the rock on which the unfortunate Raleigh struck. The survey was made by Captain Bates, who was accompanied by Mr. Williams, Master of the state that so well known Raleigh, and when then for him.\n\nAs we are a day behind the for, thanks to our kind friends, the above firm, we think it unnecessary to republish the documents, but we call attention to the reasonable inference drawn by the\n\nThere is one drop of comfort in this bucket of filth—the Ordinance never will be carried out, not even when the gloss of novelty is upon it. There is no staff of officials to carry it out.\n\nWe may therefore rest satisfied that the minds of the Chinese will not be undermined by this Ordinance, and the only bad effect of it will be to disgrace a British Statute book. Spies there are, and will be—like other vermin they are useful and can be dispensed with; but the more we can do without them the better, and we hope never to see the day when the inhabitants of a whole colony shall turn spies, and no one however respectable be safe.\n\nThe Sampson has had an engagement with pirates near Mi-chin bay, to the South of the entrance of the Straits of Hainan. The steamer had followed them up to this place which it appears they have made their rendezvous for some time past.\n\nThe result of a sharp and successful contest was the complete defeat of the Pirates who were compelled to retire, having about 200 killed, wounded, or prisoners, in the hands of the assailants. We have not heard of any serious casualties to any of the Sampson crew.\n\nXI.

It shall be the duty of the Kápcheong to communicate forthwith to the Registrar General all such reports as in Section Fourteen are mentioned, when the same are received by him; and likewise to report to him to the utmost of his skill and knowledge, all Cases, or Suspicions of Crime, whether reported from the Kap or not; and in all other respects to discharge the duties and exercise the powers of a Constable of the Police Force of Hongkong, so as the same are altered by this Ordinance.\n\nThis is the spy system on which the Ordinance rests.\n\nWe give below part of a correspondence between Sir John Bowring and the officers who were employed on the descent lately made on Cowloon, powerful in her armament and crew as the Sampson is.\n\nGovernment Office, 25th April, 1857.\n\nMY DEAR COLONEL—I have been quite shocked to hear that, among other things, the official sent were eiti- Register\" or \"Register's Advertiser, please address to the \"Printer and Publisher\n\nWe further learn that the Chinese captured have been given up to the Mandarins at Amoy, and that the Portuguese taken are to be handed over to the Macao Authorities.\n\nThe expedition to Chek-chun was accompanied by Mr. Wan and acquainted with only one of the inculpating facts by surprise. A large number of \"braves\" were found concealed in the city, and a few house before the attack.\n\nThere is no evidence that poisoning as an art has been practiced in China, and we search her annals in vain for a case parallel to that of Hongkong.\n\nThe pith failed through the dilatoriness of the mandarins sent for distribution among a portion of the attacked force, & quantity of a perennial creeper found on the hills of the central provinces.

        "content_text": "## THE FRIEND OF CHINA AND HONGKONG GAZETTE.\n\n### VICTORIA, SATURDAY, JANUARY 24th, 1857.\n\n#### LATEST DATES\nEng Nov. 19; San Francisco, Dec. 21; Singapore, Jan. 13; Manilla, Nov. 13; Jan. 14\n\n#### CHINESE CHANTUNG\n11 Muia, Gish Days\n\nAs soon as each division of the city is closed, and gates are set up, appointing a man to keep the gate, examining those who are passing and reporting should anything fearful occur, let the gates be shut and lugs to prevent thieves from doing mischief.\n\nAgain, in the several divisions of the city let a strict examination be made, and in every row where disorderly women live let them be shut in all defences; and when they have suspicious strangers, weapons, and other instruments, as ferrets, let them be searched for daily.\n\nTowards the Wells—in each division of the Town where there are wells, let a watchman be appointed by night and day to watch it, some person reputed or recommended by some one who knows his faithfulness, in order to guard against the treacherous putting in poison; opening at six o'clock in the morning and closing at six in the evening. Let the owners of water pay 3 cash per load for the water man's wages.\n\nFire—Hongkong ought to put up a reward or prize for any who shall seize a water or miscreant in any Mandarine's employment; and when masters of these shall be convicted under evidence, let a reward of hundred dollars be given to the informer.\n\nAlso, should any shop or dwelling house for want of care allow fire to kindle, let the offender be taken up and receive a thrashing of one hundred blows, made to carry it for three months correction, for not being careful against fire and the sin of involving others. Thus by the establishment of such a rule, men would certainly be careful against the grievous accident with catching animosity.\n\nBarbarians—At present the Mandarines of China have laid an embargo on Hongkong—prohibiting intercourse. Vessels going and passing boats from the neighboring places around perhaps come, perhaps not; perhaps several unite in coming together, to guard against the sea pirates they thus unite. Now the Mandarines have put out a proclamation prohibiting the Chinese from coming to Hongkong, but permitting their return home. We hear it stated that the Mandarines have thus fixed the time to the 1st month of next year—February 1857—before which none are to go or come; if they do they are to be seized as transgressors, and dealt with accordingly. Now although the hoted time has not arrived, still all the vessels that arrive at Hongkong, whether from city or village, should be carefully examined by some trusty conductor of a government boat, as to their business, whence from, name and surname, their age and appearance, and where they intended going in Hongkong; of which write in a book by which there will be a means of examining into the matter. Also, let each vessel examined for soldiers, implements of war, or other suspicious instruments. Examine the oven on board, whether they have anything suspicious in their appearance, and search their persons to see if they have any daggers about them, or any traitorous letters or clues of wicked devices, instantly examining everything on board, after which allow them to go on shore. As the present is a time of war, if there are traitors among the people of Hongkong, many of them rebels taking refuge; besides the men without employment will be many, poor and it is difficult for these to accept to any other occupation. The thieves, though numerous, will be found willing to observe the Laws, and will certainly not be the disturbers of the peace. Their machinations are at war, and it will be found exceeding difficult to effect a translation—apparently the subtle proclamation broadcast over the English were to select a crew of sturdy lads among those who frequent the brothels dispersed over the City. These are principally boasted above spies. Whichever is virtuous, without reference to his claracter, enrolling him as an assistant with $7, $5, $3, implements, the patriotic and bold, and act in unison leader, as actor, may take lodgings in them. No. suppose at and finds; for certain there are such among these, the same time was set above state everywhere capable of leading forward the past to the conquest where there are prostitutes, as the sign.

Recently Dying had planned trend been shut the city, been pleased intercourse, Tell the officials of the English by respectfully writing them to warn again pointing being foreigners, and perhaps, ad agato traži; and trade. into the wells of Hongkong. Suppose the Mandarines and gentry should secretly and in concert at a given time to set fire to the prostitutes' houses, poison the wells, and make an united attack both from the kind and out.\n\nMoreover, they would break the Embargo, placed on Hongkong and also in cutting off supplies, we fear all the dire that like an hell become a reality.\n\n| Jan.

This being the case, Government has turned its attention to roads, and is of opinion that surveys for a railway need not be undertaken.\" \n\n27. The last and weightiest recommendation on this subject has come from the Associated Chambers of Commerce of Great Britain. At their last spring meeting, the 3rd March, 1903, they resolved: \"That, with a view to promoting facilities for the conveyance of merchandize between Burma and South-West China, a survey should be undertaken at once for a light railway from Bhamo to Têngyüeh, as it is believed that the reports of His Majesty's Consul at Tengyüeh on the goods traffic between those places are sufficient to justify proceeding with such a work.” \n\nNovember 23, 1903. \n\n**(Signed)** \n**W. WARRY** \n\nP.S.-I have been unable to obtain the new 4-inch survey maps in time to prepare a tracing from them for the purposes of this note. I submit instead a map of Yunnan reduced by the Royal Geographical Society from the survey maps. It is the best of its size in existence, but is on too small a scale to give the names of all places on the Kunlon-Tali-fu railway trace. \n\n## APPENDIX \n\nFrom Kunlôn (1,700 feet) to 4 miles beyond Mongkyen (54 miles) construction is easy, the estimate being 25,000 rupees a-mile. In the next 70 miles occur the worst difficulties of the whole line. There is very heavy gorge work; one section of 26 miles is estimated at 1,32,000 rupees a-mile, another of 15 miles at 1,46,000 rupees a-mile, another of 4 miles at 1,34,000 rupees a-mile. This brings the rail to Toù Tao Shui, and thence over the watershed to Yunchou (17 miles) the work is easier, averaging about 23,000 rupees a-mile. Another easy stretch of 17 miles succeeds, and then come the gorges of the Nan Chiao Ho, the Mekong (about 3,000 feet above sea) and the Konglan stream-in all, 56 miles. The partial survey by Major Davies showed that these were not so difficult as had been anticipated; and the estimate for this section averages only 78,000 rupees a-mile. The 10 miles ascent from the gorge of the Konglan to the summit of the Konglan range (7,300 feet) is described as \"extraordinarily easy, though the last 6 miles are only suited for a 1-inch 16-rack rail.\" The estimate is about 20,000 rupees a-mile. Near the summit a short tunnel of 500 yards will be necessary, costing 1 lakh. The descent lies through the Nanchien Valley and plain (27 miles) for which the estimate is 21,000 rupees a-mile. Then comes a gorge of 5 miles costing 80,000 rupees a-mile; then the Mitao Valley and Plain, 35 miles at 12,300 rupees a-mile. Next a range to be crossed involving an ascent of 54 miles at 50,000 rupees a-mile, and a tunnel of 1.4 miles costing 3 lakhs. This brings the trace into the Chao Chou Valley, and there remain 26 miles of nearly level country, costing 14,200 rupees a-mile, through the Chao Chou and Hsiakuan Plains to Tali-fu. \n\n## Inclosure 9 in No. 1 \n\n### Liverpool Chamber of Commerce to Mr. Brodrick \n\nSir, \n\n1. **BHAMO and Momein Road and Light Railway** \n\nLiverpool, October 28, 1904. \n\n25 \n\n(2.) In regard to the above-named subject (No. 2), it is noted that \"the Government of India have furnished an estimate of the cost of surveying the portion of the route between the Salween and the Mekong,\" and that \"this estimate, which amounts to 1,50,000 rupees, has been communicated to the Foreign Office,\" but that the Government of India are not willing to throw this expenditure on the Indian revenues, and that the Secretary of State in Council in these circumstances cannot proceed with the survey. \n\nWith reference to this second announcement, the Committee of the East India and China Trade Section observe that in the seventh Report of the Directors of the Burmah Railways Company (Limited), dated the 15th December last, it is shown in the statement of surplus profits for the year ending the 30th June, 1903, that after payment of interest charges at the rate of 2.4 per cent. on the Company's share capital and Government outlay, the Government's share of the net earnings in excess of interest was 17,28,984 rupees (`£115,265`), and the Committee therefore respectfully but urgently suggest that a small portion of this profit-viz., the 1,50,000 rupees, or `£10,000`, required for the survey-should be granted for that purpose, in view of the prospective value of a railway to the trade of Burma with South-Western China. The Committee would also respectfully point out, in further support of their request, that the Province of Burma yields to the Government of India some `£3,000,000` per annum as clear profit out of its revenues. \n\nIt is observed that the French are pushing their railway enterprises from Tonquin into the heart of Yunnan, and it is anticipated that when Yunan-fu has been reached by them they will extend their railway now building between Laokai and Yunnan-fu to Sui-fu on the Yangtse River. Such a French railway would take the trade at the head waters of the River Yangtse, and leave to Burma only the comparatively small trade of the mountainous country lying between North-East Burma and the valley of the Yangtse. On the other hand, a British railway between Burma, Yunnan-fu, and Sui-fu might anticipate the extension of the French line, and secure to Burma merchants a portion of the vastly more important trade of the very populous Province of Szechuan. \n\nThe Committee feel that an enterprise of this nature should be encouraged by the Government of India, seeing that railways in general in China are being made by Germany, France, Belgium, and Companies or Syndicates of other nationalities, and that Britain is in danger of losing her hard-won supremacy in China markets. \n\nFurther, the French Indo-China Government have guaranteed 4 per cent. interest on the capital which is being expended on the Tonquin-Yunnan-fu Railway. \n\nI have, &c. \n\n**(Signed)** \n**THOMAS W. BARKER, Secretary** \n\n## Inclosure 10 in No. 1 \n\n### India Office to Liverpool Chamber of Commerce \n\nIndia Office, September 30, 1904. \nI am directed by the Secretary of State for India in Council to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of the 28th October, 1904, relative to railways between Burma and China. \n\nIn reply, I am to inform you that the Secretary of State has carefully considered in Council the views laid before him by the Chamber of Commerce of Liverpool, relative to the proposed Burma-Szechuan line, but has not been able to modify the views previously expressed. \n\nWith regard to the proposed Bhamo-Momein line, however, he has now learnt the views of the Government of Burma and of the Government of India on the subject, and he has the matter under his consideration. \n\nI am, &c. \n**(Signed)** \n**HORACE WALPOLE** \n\n### 2. Proposed Burma-Szechuan Railway \n\n(1.) I have to acknowledge receipt of your letter dated the 2nd September saying, in regard to the first of the above-named subjects, that \"the Government of India are still in consultation with the Burma Government in regard to the project for a railway between Bhamo and Momein,\" and that \"steps have meanwhile been taken to improve the roads between the two places. In respect to this announcement I am to say that the Committee of the East India and China Trade Section are gratified therewith, and trust the matter will progress to a favourable issue.",

        "content_text": "## B 277\n\n2\n\n**PHOTOGRAPHY IN NATURAL COLOURS**\n\nThe Polychromide System\n\nEffort to produce photographs in the actual colour of nature have attracted earnest attention during recent years, and the works of the Lumières and others were valuable stepping-stones on the road to progress. It has been proved that, by the use of the colour-screen, negatives can be produced giving the sensations of the three primary colours, and these can be combined to leave a fairly harmonious picture; but it has been well stated that the results obtained by superposed pigmented bichromated gelatine (successively yellow, red, and blue), printed from colour-selection negatives at very uncertain and often far from satisfactory.\n\nOne of the chief features which distinguish the new polychromide process, patented by Mr. Acon Hamburger, of the Dover Street Studios, from many others is the use of a mechanism which enables the three plates to be taken simultaneously at a single exposure. In order to overcome certain difficulties inherent in this principle, Hamburger employs both reflection and refraction, and he has succeeded in so balancing the intensities of each that the perfect colour-stone rendering is obtained. A scale of shades of the standard colours has been prepared, in which the yellow inclines slightly to orange, the red to crimson, and the blue to green; that is to say, in lieu of being true primaries, the tints are in each case somewhere merged the one into the other. These shades are standardized, so that by means of the special developer used in the camera and the sensitized printing paper, with the above standard tints, any photographer should be able to attain accurate results. Two plates not on three are employed, each is sensitized to photograph one colour only.\n\nThe plate and the film are put together into one slide, with the emulsions in contact, the film thus serving the purpose of screening the plate. A print is made from the blue negative upon a rapid gelatine paper, which is turned into the yellow image. Prints in gelatine containing double salts are prepared from the other two negatives and transferred to a temporary support of glass. They are then superposed on the original yellow print by stripping. Though so far Mr. Hamburger has worked only by the aid of artificial flashlight, using a special compound to impart the requisite active properties, he does not anticipate obstacles in adapting the process to ordinary daylight. The camera takes the three pictures through a single lens and a single shutter, and it is found possible to have the register of the pictures perfectly accurate. The success of this process appears to depend upon the skill with which the spectrum has been split up, so that there is either no gap nor overlap, and therefore no colour is either lost or doubled. Specimens of the results yielded by the new process include not only serious portraits, in which the delicate flesh tints, the hair, and the minute details on the costume of the sitters are reproduced in complete harmony and in true colours, but also copies of paintings by the Old Masters in which the values due to low tone and false tints are successfully overcome.\n\n## NEWS OF THE WORLD\n\n[Telegrams from London]\n\n**The King of Greece**\n\nReuter's correspondent at Athens wires that an eye-witness of the scene said that the King was standing at the corner of Aghistas Street, which is near the Police Headquarters, when an assassin rushed out of a hiding place and drew a big revolver from close quarters at His Majesty.\n\nThe Aide-de-Camp, Colonel Frangoulis, drew his revolver, whereupon the assassin turned round and fired twice upon the Colonel.\n\nTwo Cretan gendarmes then dashed up and arrested the assassin, who offered no resistance.\n\nColonel Frangoulis ran to the King, thinking His Majesty had not been hit, but found that he had fastened to the ground and was only half conscious.\n\nColonel Frangoulis raised the King in his arms, but His Majesty did not utter a word.\n\nSome notes and cartridges were found on the assassin.\n\nReuter's correspondent at Athens says the man refuses to speak except to say, \"I will speak in the presence of the King.\"\n\n**King George V**\n\nThe King, accompanied by Queen Alexandra, visited Queen Mary at Marlborough House.\n\nThe outrage has aroused worldwide condolences and universal expressions of horror.\n\nA dispatch from Salonika to \"The Times\" regarding the assassination of the King of Greece says the King was in the habit of walking out every afternoon with a single servant, refusing requests made by his advisers to permit the presence of guards.\n\nYesterday, he was talking happily of the war and the successes of the Greek army as a long delayed triumph to his reign and said: \"Tomorrow I pay a final visit to the Dreadnought Goeben. It is with happiness and contentment that a German battleship should honour the Greek King at Salonika.\" These proved to be His Majesty's last words, for at that moment the assassin...\n\nThe Aide-de-Camp, Colonel Frangoulis, seized the hands of the assassin, which was poised for a second shot. Covering his Royal master with his body, Colonel Frangoulis grabbed the assailant by the throat and held him fast till soldiers came to his aid.\n\nThe English public are profoundly affected by the tragedy, which is an additional bereavement in Queen Alexandra's family. There were many references to the tragedy by public men at meetings held yesterday, and last night, wide pages of the papers were devoted to tributes.\n\nReuter's correspondent at Athens says that all Greece is grief-stricken. The Prince George and others gently broke the news to the Queen, who fainted several times.\n\nReuter's correspondent at Athens also reports that it appears that the assassin is weak-minded, and a victim of alcohol. He is a native of Greece. He was twice dismissed from a school where he was employed as an attendant and he petitioned the King, who referred the matter to the proper quarter, which rejected the petition.\n\n## British Affairs\n\nIn introducing the Army Estimates in the House of Commons, Col. Seely, Minister of War, dwelt on the extraordinary apprehension regarding aviation. He pointed out that the officers' never allowed performances to be published, and consequently remarkable achievements went unnoticed.\n\nHe affirmed that they did not possess any Zeppelins because they were not required.\n\nIt was decided to have some transportable dirigibles, and they would also possess 14 aeroplanes by May. Publicity were obviously marked for an expeditionary remount, and they could not reinforce the Egyptian garrison or the Indian troops. They had obtained a type of aeroplane superior to that of any nation. The difficulty was in regard to the engine, as he was offering a prize in this connection with the promise of a large purchase.\n\nThe Minister, Mr. H. Samuel (Postmaster General) and Sir Rufus Isaacs (Attorney General) obtained judgment with costs against the French newspaper \"La Muflin\" for libel in connection with statements published relating to the Marconi affair. The newspaper admitted the statements to be false and apologized.\n\nCounsel for the defence unreservedly accepted the denials of the Ministers that they were in any way concerned with dealings in Marconi shares.\n\nDelous Wattoit, Unionist Free Trader, has been returned to Parliament for the Kendal Division. The polling was:\n\n| Candidate | Votes |\n| --- | --- |\n| Col. Weston (U.) | 3,241 |\n| Mr. Somervell (C) | 1,680 |\n|  | 581 |\n\nUnionist Majority\n\nMr. Bone, in addressing the members of the Manchester Unionist Association, said that Kendal, in electing Colonel Weston, who refused to support the policy announced by the Party leaders, really voted no confidence in the late Government. If the party refused to act unitedly and would act following the leader, it was his duty to give place to another; and he would perform that duty if circumstances arose.\n\nThe result of the Houghton-le-Spring by-election was:\n\n| Candidate | Votes |\n| --- | --- |\n| Mr. Wing (L) | 930 |\n| Mr. Richardson (C) | 4,807 |\n| Mr. Modles (L) | 4,185 |\n\nThe motion by Mr. Harold Smith for a reduction of the Home Office vote was defeated by 224 votes to 100.\n\nThe two Irish prisoners who had been sentenced for five days in Cold Bath Fields prison and to whom shamrocks were sent down on St. Patrick's Day have been rescued.\n\nFrom Port Said, it is reported that the steamer \"Melen\" has shipped £50,000 in gold for Singapore.\n\n## Affairs in China\n\nThere is much published in the Russian press regarding impending war between Russia and China. This is partly based on reported Chinese preparations for an advance on Urga, in defiance of Russia.\n\nIt is announced from St. Petersburg that M. Mueller, the Consul General at Tabriz, is proceeding to Urga as Consul-General, the consulate there being upgraded to a Consulate-General.\n\n## ENDER ENTIRELY NEW SIGN ON KHEN\n\n**EXCELLENT COLON**\n\nModerate Rates\n\nM.

        "content_text": "# HONGKONG LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL\n\nA meeting of the Hongkong Legislative Council was held yesterday at the Council Chamber.\n\nThe following were present:-\n\n**HIS EXCELLENCY THE OFFICER ADMINISTERING THE GOVERNMENT**, Hon. Mr. CLAUD SEVERN.\nH.E. MAJOR-GENERAL. F. H. KELLY, C.B.\nHon. Mr. A. M. THOMSON (Colonial Secretary).\nHon. Mr. J. A. S. BUCKNILL, K.C. (Attorney-General).\nHon. Mr. A. G. M. FLETCHER (Colonial Treasurer).\nHon. Mr. W. Chatham, C.M.G. (Director of Public Works).\nHon. Mr. E. R. HALLIFAX (Secretary for Chinese Affairs).\nHon. Mr. C. McI. MESSER (Captain Superintendent of Police).\nHon. Mr. WEI YUK, C.M.G.\nHon. Mr. E. A. HEWETT, C.M.G.\nHon. Mr. E. SHELLIM.\nHon. Mr. D. LANDALE.\nHon. Mr. LAU CHU PAK.\nMr. R. H. CROFTON (Clerk of Councils).\n\n## THE MILITARY CONTRIBUTION\n\nHon. Mr. HEWETT - Sir, I beg to move the resolution standing in my name, but before doing so I will make a few remarks on the subject. Once a year the unofficial members have the privilege of discussing the estimates for the following year, and for many years past a most important item of the estimates has been our military contribution, this year amounting to very nearly 17 lakhs out of a total revenue of 95 lakhs. We are unable to understand why we should not be allowed to discuss such a very important item of expenditure whenever the estimates are put before us. However, a higher power has ruled that this is not to be, although at the same time we do not see how it is possible that such a regulation has been laid down, and can only suppose that it has been done by the kindly forethought of the Secretary of State for the Colonies, who wished to save the unofficial members the almost useless and hopeless task of trying to get this excessive tax reduced. Therefore it is necessary, if we are to have any discussion at all on the question of the military contribution, to bring forward a special resolution, and I have done so this year because I think the time has now arrived to enter the strongest protest we possibly can against this unjust tax.\n\nTime was when feeling in the Colony was strong as to paying any tax at all. My predecessor, Sir Thomas Sutherland, speaking when the vote was brought before this Council, was no doubt voicing the feeling of the community when he said he considered the Colony should not be called upon to pay any contribution at all. However, a good deal of water has run under the bridge since then. Our views have changed and we have become more imperialistic in our ideas. I do not think we will find any people who will object to contributing towards the upkeep of the garrison of the Colony, but we do most strongly object to this excessive tax which is levied upon us. Your Excellency will remember that we have repeatedly protested against this tax.\n\nAt the present moment our revenue is 9 million dollars, and it is estimated that we have to expend about 10 million, and have to draw from our reserves in order to balance the budget. An important item of the revenue is a tax to which we object, and hope to see abolished eventually - I refer to the tax on liquor. Next year it is estimated to produce something like $700,000. That tax was enforced very much against the wishes of the Government, and very much against the wishes of the community. But money had to be raised for the time being, and we agreed to it. Out of that tax next year when money is raised to balance the budget we will have to pay no less a sum than $1,450,000 towards the military contribution.\n\nThere is probably hardly any Colony, if any Colony at all, under the British flag which is forced by geographical and other conditions to spend such enormous sums of money in public works. Situated as we are, in the region of typhoons, we have to spend very large sums on the refuge for small craft, on damage done ashore and afloat and by wreckage of houses; also by damage done to the public gardens, to trees, and by loss of life through the capsizing of boats. And that will always go on. We have to remember that through the formation of the island we have to depend upon our water supply for storage which is collected through a short time in the year; no one reservoir can drain sufficient water for our needs. I remember the time when the first Tytam reservoir was made, when people were saying, \"Thank goodness, there will be no more famine.\" Since then our water supply has been increased by two-thirds, and even this year we suffered from a very severe famine.\n\nThe sites for our buildings have been provided at great cost, being either hewn out of the hills or reclaimed from the harbour. The same applies to our roads, and I would remind you that a great many of them have been made for military purposes, notwithstanding the fact that they furnish a pleasant walk on Saturday or Sunday afternoons. That being so, it is imperative that we should have as much of our revenue as possible expended upon ourselves. Every few years we see some important public work completed, and we have to start on something else. Even now, although we are engaged on two very important public works costing millions of dollars, a reclamation scheme, the dredging of the harbour and other works must be carried out if this Colony is to hold the position it does.\n\nTherefore it is wrong, absolutely wrong, that the Home Government should force us against our will - for with the exception of Sir Henry May none of us support the tax put upon us now - to pay such an excessive share of our revenue for this purpose. I think that is all I need say, because the question has been frequently discussed, and the same thing has been said over and over again. As you are aware, however, a very important Commission met last Spring on the question of the military contribution from overseas possessions. I think that Commission closed in August or September last year, and we should be very glad to hear from his Excellency whether anything has been heard as to ...",

It came up last at an interview between Mr. Stephen of the Hong Kong and Shanghai Bank and Mr. Thomas, in June last, when the then Secretary of State expressed gratification at hearing of Sir E. Stubbs' acceptability, but excused himself from saying anything definite on the ground that he could not pledge a possible successor.\n\nSir E. Stubbs' term does not expire until September next and consideration of the question might therefore be deferred, especially as conditions in China are even more chaotic than usual. But Sir E. Stubbs is anxious to come on leave in the early spring, has to make his arrangements now, and is held up by not knowing what will happen after September. If he is to leave Hong Kong then he will not have an extension. He has had very little leave since he went to the East early in 1913.\n\nIt will be observed that the Unofficial Members ask that he may be reappointed for a full further term of 6 years.

The six official members of the Executive Council are the Senior Military Officer, the Colonial Secretary, the Attorney General, the Secretary for Chinese Affairs, the Colonial Treasurer, all of whom are members ex-officio, and the Director of Public Works, appointed by the Governor. The three unofficial members, one of whom is Chinese, are appointed by the Governor. The six official members of the Executive Council are also members of the Legislative Council; the other three official members of this Council, who are appointed by the Governor, are the Inspector General of Police, the Harbour Master, and the Director of Medical and Sanitary Services. Of the unofficial members of the Legislative Council, two are appointed by the Governor on the nomination respectively of the Justices of the Peace and of the Chamber of Commerce; the Governor also appoints the remaining members, three of whom are Chinese. Appointment in the case of unofficial members is for five years for the Executive and four years for the Legislative Council.\n\nPage 40  \nPage 41",

        "content_text": "# CENTENARY \n## HONGKONG \n### South China Morning Post - Hongkong Telegraph. \n#### SUPPLEMENT \nJanuary 25, 1941.\n\n## HOW HONGKONG BECAME A CROWN COLONY\n\nThe old records set January 26 as the date on which Britain's representative, Captain Charles Elliot, R.N., took formal possession of the island in 1841. This is therefore the actual Centenary day; but a landing on the island by a British naval force, and a preliminary declaration of Queen Victoria's suzerainty, is reported to have taken place on January 25.\n\nThere can be little doubt that voyagers from the West have must sighted Hongkong island, and put in to one or other of its bays, many years before the British occupation we have years ago.\n\nNear Shekpaiwan, well established at least 200 years ago, was the village we know to-day as Little Hongkong. It was then named Heungkong, apparently a translation of \"Fragrant Streams,\" to give the most poetical version of the name. On most old charts, this village must have been marked as the principal town of the island; and no doubt, in time, the whole island came to be so named, thus giving us the present name of the Colony itself. The village of Little Hongkong, decimated by malaria, has within the past quarter century fallen partly into ruins, and its existence will in time probably be no more than a matter of local history - a striking commentary on the march of time.\n\nHONGKONG attains its hundredth year under British suzerainty in difficult times: conditions in a war-torn world prevent fitting celebration of a great historic event in the Colony's history. Nevertheless, Hongkong stands to-day a monument of British foresight, enterprise, and stamina; it is still a haven of refuge, a symbol of democratic freedom, and a beacon for many who falter in these troubled and uncertain times. Its history may well be unique, and its heritage one to cherish.\n\nIN these pages, of necessity in brief form, is given the main factual history of this Empire outpost against a background of grit and the true pioneering spirit; is told the plain story of how a barren, fever-stricken rock became the Hongkong of to-day - one of the largest seaports in the world, with a huge entrepot trade, important industries, and a population of near two millions when the whole territory of the Colony is included. It stands a bastion of civilisation, as democratic peoples translate that term; perhaps, also a challenge. Whatever the next hundred years may hold for Hongkong, its first century is a glorious one, and the tale of its development, however briefly told, should form an inspiration to any who come after us.\n\nThe reasons for the acquisition of the Colony make a rather long story, but may be summarised briefly. The first settlement at nearby Macao, and the arrival of the Dutch navigators and early missionaries, who went as far as Formosa and to Japan, had broken out between Britain and China, mainly owing to friction where foreign merchants had established themselves in the trading centres known as factories. Hostilities ceased at the beginning of 1841, and the decision to take over Hongkong in place of what is now Boundary Street, was to remain intact. The revolt, in which the city was involved, caused the British authorities to take all Chinese residing on the island under their control, and thus the de facto administration of Hongkong under British rule commenced.\n\nWhen Sir Henry Pottinger became Governor and Commander-in-Chief of the Colony by Royal Warrant in 1843, the Colonial Government was organised, with a Lieutenant Governor, Major-General George C. D'Aguilar, C.B., who was the General Officer Commanding the British land forces in China. The title of Lieutenant Governor was abolished after his tenure; but he also administered the Government on several occasions up to 1847. The first Colonial Secretary was Lieut.-Col. George Alexander Malcolm (1843), who was succeeded by Mr F. W. A. Bruce in 1844, and by Major William Caine (who also was Chief Magistrate in those early years) in 1848. Lieut William Pedder, R.N., was the first Harbour Master (1843); the Colonial Surgeon being Dr Alexander (1843), succeeded by Dr F. Dill in 1844; and the first head of the Police Department was Mr Charles May, who took up his duties in 1844. The Post Office goes back as a department to 1842, when a Mr FitzGibbon was in charge, succeeded in a few months by a Mr Mullahy, who in turn gave place to Mr R. Edwards; Mr F. Spring followed in 1843; and in 1846, Mr Thomas Hyland was appointed, being the most energetic of the early Postmasters, and serving for some years.\n\n## THE BRITISH ADVENT\n\nKowloon Old City, now largely disappearing under development of the area, was until about fifteen years ago surrounded by an ancient wall in perfect state of preservation. Here for a considerable period, the centre of Chinese government of the adjacent area was the yamen. The city was founded seven or eight hundred years ago, and the Chinese attached so much sentimental value to the place that under the convention handing over the New Territories, jurisdiction of the Kowloon City yamen was to remain intact.\n\nThe Mandarin of Kowloon City still retained his yamen at that old town. On January 20, 1841, a Circular was issued from Macao by Captain Elliot, Chief Superintendent of Trade and Her Majesty's Plenipotentiary in China, announcing the cession of the island and harbour of Hongkong to the British Crown (as part of the terms of the peace with the Chinese). Captain Elliot arrived a few days later, on January 26, and had formal possession of the Colony concluded in 1858, but broke out again, and it was not until 1860 that hostilities ceased. The cession of Kowloon peninsula was taken over in 1861.\n\n## INCLUSION OF KOWLOON\n\nThe Colony of Hongkong continued to comprise merely the island area until 1861, when the small ceded territory of Kowloon peninsula was taken over. After the second war with China - known as the \"Arrow\" War owing to its being the result of an attack at Canton on a lorcha of that name, flying the British flag and owned by Hongkong Chinese - it was felt that for the proper defence of the island, the section of the mainland should also be in British possession.\n\nThe development of Kowloon proceeded apace, and Portuguese residents were prominent in this pioneering work. The New Territories were taken over on lease for 99 years, under a convention signed in Peking, the lease commencing on July 1, 1898. However, owing to trouble caused by Chinese agitators, the area had to be pacified, and it was not until April 1899 that full occupation was effected. Much of the trouble was centred in Taipo, and a detachment of troops, and some naval units, were sent to aid the Police. After some skirmishing, the British flag was hoisted at Taipo on April 16, and the trouble subsided. The greatest opposition was met at Kam Tin village, and the iron gates of that place were removed, but were returned (after being taken to England in the meantime) in 1925.\n\n## EARLY ADMINISTRATION\n\nThough Captain Elliot was the first administrator, the first officer to bear the title of Governor of Hongkong was Sir Henry Pottinger, G.C.B. This was owing to the technical formalities of taking over Hongkong as a British Crown Colony; so Sir Henry commenced as Administrator and concluded his term of office as Governor. Mr A. R. Johnston succeeded Captain Elliot on June 22, 1841, as Administrator, Sir Henry Pottinger assuming office on August 12 the same year, and being appointed Governor on June 26, 1843, when the island was officially designated \"the Colony of Hongkong.\" \n\nThese early administrators, in fact, were Superintendents of Trade. Mr A. T. Gordon was the first Surveyor General (a title changed in 1891 to Director of Public Works), and took up his post in 1843, being succeeded by Mr C. St George Cleverly in 1845. That saw the beginnings of the Public Works Department.\n\nThe first Registrar General (an office changed to that of Secretary for Chinese Affairs in 1913) was Mr S. T. Fearon, in 1845, who was succeeded in 1846 by Mr A. L. Inglis.\n\nThe Supreme Court was founded in 1844, the first Chief Justice, appointed that year, being Mr John Walter Hulme. The first Registrar of the Supreme Court (1844) was Mr R. D. Cay.\n\nThe earliest of the Colonial Treasurers (a title recently changed to Accountant General) was Mr E. Elmslie.\n\nOne of the most interesting narratives of the landing on the island has been preserved in a narrative of the voyage of H.M.S. Sulphur in 1836-1842: by Dr Clarke Abel, K.C.B.\n\nNear Kowloon City is the Sung Wong terrace, where a large rock reputed to have formed a shelter for Emperor Dai Ping, who when he was in flight from the Mongolian invaders, rested for a brief period at Kowloon. \n\nThe following interesting account is given: \"On the return of the Commodore (to Macao) on the 24th of January, 1841, we were directed to proceed to Hongkong, and commence its survey. We landed on Monday, the 25th, 1841, at fifteen minutes past eight a.m., and being the bona fide first possessors, Her Majesty's health was drunk with three cheers on Possession Mount. On the 26th, the squadron arrived; the marines were landed, the union flag hoisted on our post, and formal possession taken of the island, by Commodore Sir J. J. G. Bremer, accompanied by the other officers of the squadron, under a feu-de-joie from the other marines, and a royal salute from the ships of war.\"\n\nIt is interesting to note that Possession Point (now Chinese recreation ground) appears on older plans of the city, situated not far from the waterfront, near Queen Street, in a space enclosed by Queen's Road on the north and Gap Street on the south. Possession Street exists to-day, immediately alongside, connecting Queen's Road and Hollywood Road.\n\nThe reference to Macao is explained by the fact that, when the war with China broke out, British and other foreign residents evacuated Canton and took refuge in the friendly Portuguese colony until hostilities were over, and for a time, British interests in China had been directed from Macao.\n\nPage 9",
