Question of labour is beginning to mesmo a really alarming aspect. There are simply not enough ratives in South Afrias, if they all worked, for our growing requiremonts, and wherever we turn outside for fresh supplies, with the solitary exception of British Contral Africa, from which we may got at mest 10,000, we are met with a non porsemans. I have to point out that this country has fakon upon its shoulders na enormous bardea of debt in reliance on its enormous resources But it cannot develop those resources without labour, and if we are destined to meet with a refusal wherever we turn to look for labour wa must soon be landed is financial embarrass- meat. The avoidance of this is, it soars ta me, a matter of more than merely local concern. T'here is no doubt that evolies for the railways would afford es considerable relief by setting frao natives for wines and agriculture. It is No. 24, CAINE ROAD.

In reply Mr. Chamborlian recognised that this proposal was different in kind from any immigration scheme which would leave the coolies in the country to complicate the popula tion question; but he raised two conditions: that the scheme must obtain the approval of RICHMOND the public in South Africa and the sanction of

the Indian Government. The latter aro dis satisfied with the treatment of Indians in South Africa, and their consent is contingent on, the following five conditions:-

WM. POWELL, LD.,

With special reference to Rusco-Chinese trade, the Karbinski Viennik, the newly-established organ of the trade department of the Ecstora Chiucas Railway, etates that during the last

century while our (Bossian) trade with European countries steadily increased, and while the exports to Asiatic countries, other than China. rose to a remarkable extent, the imports from China contiune to be far in excess of the exporta to that country. While one merchants here (in Harbin) in the contro of Manchuria, within easy access of large Chiness trading centres, are com plaining of bad trade, the Chinesa merehnats, are doing a good business, even with such distant Russian centres as St. Petersburg, Warsaw, and Rigs."
