HONGKONG, DECEMBER 14TH, 1895.
THE wrong application of a principle should not be allowed to blind us to the intrinsic merits of the principle itself. This reflection ie suggested by certain comments that have been made on the line taken up by the Government with regard to the questions of which notice was given by the Hoa, E. R. BELILIOS at the last meeting of the Legie Etive Council. One of those questions was ruled to be irregular in form because it in troduced marter of argument. Mr. BELYLIOS-- wants to know why anlt fator is not us for the flushing of the drains, and he wished to embody in the question an expression of opinion that the stenches from the draius are daily becoming worse. Such an expres sion of opinion is unnecessary for the purpose of explaining the question or eliciting an anewer to it, and it may further be convided herself with a lantern. If that is the tended that it is not supported by fact. It is a matter in which every me may appeal to his own sense of smell, but our own impression is that the stenches, although bad enough in all conscience, are not daily

Gricies was "the" nemal loyal and masonio toasts were duly blowing, and the surface of the water was not principal offender and very early in the honoured.
of what transpired in the Legislative Coun- cil it might be inferred that the question was ruled out altogether, but as a matter of fact it was entered in the order book after the last clause had been struck out and, we beliove, will be july asked and answered at the meet ing to-day.
The point to which we wish to direct attention, however, is the contention that the Legislative Council of Hongkong is not bound by parliamentary unge. That would be rather a dangerous and injudicious position for the unofficials to take up, be cause if they decline to be bound by partia mentary usage the official side may likewise decline to be as bound and the privileges of free nuföpch debate wight at any time be cur talled by the exarcio of the autocratic powers of the Governor. It might be well, for the sako of placing the matter beyond all dispute, if a clause were introduced into the standing rules providing that on points not expressly provided for in those rules the rules and age of the House of Commons should be followed as far as practicable; but we have adways nuderstood that to be a universally recognised, though perhaps in most cases un- written, rule in all legislative assembling In
