THE TRADE AT CHINKIANG.

Tay New).

For the park three years, great interest, been manifested the wonderful development of trade as Chinking, and for owe time there was nu undèrtainty as to what was the rent chuse of its rapiduswase. It we found to be in the "easy method by which interchange of goods was made in the interior. Foreign in- ports were allowed free necass to the distriċta Bong the most river and by canal to distant places, while in return a large amount of the surplus ative praluce was brought out onder transit pass to the port. Of late there has been a change, which has been dready advert ed to, and the receipt of the last Cuslym Re Luros confirms the fears that were entertained of a decline in the trade of Chinking. I make a few comparision to show this.
