It seldom happens that a letter reaches us from Chinking which do not contain some reference to the depressed Bate of trade, and attribute the inaclivity of that market to the so-called ottraction of the officiala in refusing to jasne. Transit Passes for native produce purchased in the interior. The complaint is not only that foreigners are debarred from taking purl in a trade which can only exist when profuted from inland eractions by Trana Pass, but also that the consumption, of our foreign imports is affected in proportion As the Chiefire themselves nuable to dispos "of their own nativa produse. It is maintained that, daringthe time when foreigners wars a). lowed to take out Transit Fasses to cover native produce ou its way from the interior to Chin- king, large quantities of goode of variona des- QUEEN'S criptions for their way to the port where they were buriered for forsign Piece Goods; but that nece Chinese official obstrucțion and Consnir callousness bivo cared the inflar of native produce to cease, Chinees dealers arG no longer ble to take foreign goods in ex- change, nn eoneequently the prospect of rev vival and mpid growth which were for sume time eshibited by this port fire fast disappear. ing Now, we can well beleve that Chiakiang to-day no longer wears the appearance of bastline stivity which was so noticeable at this time last year; but we are by no means prepared to accept as indisputable the argu. ments of those who, disappointed at sesing the momentary prosperity of the port fade away, are too reddy to forget that that momentary prosperity was due to exceptional cances, which could not reasonably be expected to online; DOT shall be satisfied thil the refusul of the Chinese authorities to issue transit pasaca for nativa produca intended for local notsumption bas bad auch an injurious effect on the import
