Sir W. M. GOODMAN said that some cases ¿were very distressing indeed. One little boy wAS left on the hands of the French Convent. The society and bad him sent to 9. Jomopli's College, and nowhowould, probably, besome a useful mom- bor if sonisty. There were three cases in which English women had married Chinose, and hei asked for smistance. An Australian woman had married a Chinaman, who left her in distress, and another Australian woman with family had beon deserted by her Chinese husband. It was very dangerous for European women to marry Chinumer. In Australia it might be all right, but the difference of custoras and modes of living sremed to be unsatisfactory, A Frenchman had asked for and received belp; and a very respectable German Ind ressived his passage to Bombay. The society was worthy of support not only by the British bat by other

His Lordship said he thought the appeal must succeed. Tho Collector appeared to have taken the view that this referred to Ogdens all over the world instead of Hongkong alone. He thought that £100-roughly speaking, some thing over $1000-was a substantial considera- tion for Ogdens' trade-mark in Hongkong alone, considering that Ogdens was in liquida. tion. He therefore allowed the appeal and made an order that 86 be the amount of stamp duty.

THE NAVY LEAGUE AND THE "TIMES."
The following latter has been addressed by the Chairionn and Secretary of the Navy League to the Editor of the Times, in reply to some
criticism of the League appearing in that journal:-
The Navy League,
13, Victoria Street, Londen, 8.W.
December 7, 1903. S1-In your leading article of November 25, dealing with the letter of the Navy League, you complain that the League attempts to make the nation's flooli creep by pointing out that according to the Parliamentary Return (165 of 1963) Great Britain has only sixty- three battleships built and building against sixty-two Franch and Russian combined, or sixty-sight if the new Russian programme be
ibelnded.
You proceed to criticise the League for accepting the figures of Government estimate. Is it the fault of the League if the gures of this Parliamentary Paper show to sario a position? For though the Admiralty has repeatedly been shailenged to reduce the warships enumerated to one common scala, so as to give a clear indication of strength, it has refused to do su: By its rofusal

The British fleet, whether in battisships or ernisers, is lo-day weaker than it was in 1805, relatively to its opponents; and in 1805-we have Admiral Colomb's authority (Nasal War fure, p. 190) for the statement, that if Villeneuve bad made the right move, there was nothing to prevent Villeneuva sailing leisurely up the Chaunel from Ushant at the head of his sixty sail of the line and covering the passage of Napoleon's vast array to the shores of Kent and Sussex." Can we be certain in the future (1), that the enemy will make mistakes similar to those of Villeneuve; (2) that British Admirals and the Admiralty will display as great insight and energy us did Nelson and Barham ?
It appears to us that the Government, by deciding to purchase the two Chiloan warships, Libertad and Constitucion, has given judgment in our favour, ie, it has declared that the battleship strength of the fleet is, and will be insullisient without such a reinforcement, and has shown that it does not accept your view that the strength of the Navy is ample. It will be remembered that from the first the Navy League has urged the advisability of acquiring the ships, and we congratulate Lord Selborne on so wise

BEFORE ME. T. SERCONDE SMITH (POLICE MAGISTRATE).
INFANTICIDE IN THE NEW TBERITORY. Tha case, in which Chenug San Fun and
their infant daughter, renaded from Monday, was resumed yesterday, when Dr. Hunter, recalled, stated that it was on the 18th and not on the 17th ins, that he held the post mortem examination of the body. This elosed the case
for the prosecution.
The defendants, after being formally cau tioned and asked if they wished to make any statement, replied that they were ignorant of the British laws and did not know what to say. His Worship committed them to take their trial at the next ensuing criminal seniors.
His Lordship said there was something grossly negligent on somebody's part-ho did not think it WAS Mr. Bowley's- in the way entries such as this ware put in the Gazette. He would be very glap to know who was at fault. The Stamp Collector had adjudged 310 on something that | Pang Lung were charged with the murder of was pablished in the Gazette at page 317 of 1903. Well, he found first of all that it was headed Order made by the Governor in Council under the provisions of Ordinazes No. 18 of 1893. It did not give any section. This was a thing he had repeatedly complained about, that you had to look through a whole Ordinace to find out what section a case was brought under. Looking at Sealion 6 of the Stamp Ordinance, 1901, you found that there were seven sub-sections under which he could make rules and regulations, It was perfectly impossible for him to say under which one he had made the order, though there was a thing at the end for the general working of this Ordinance. That was not right, because sup- posing the validity of these rules and regulations came before the Court they would not know auder what section to go. The Court wanted people to give them the section and sub-asution when they put it in the Gazette. To take the first thing. Rule 19 of the Trade Mark Rules was amended, and in the Gazette of 1898 in the index he found the heading Trade Mari He must admit, however, he had since discover. it was under the heading Orders in Council."

FALSE PERTENCES.
Tam Fung was charged with obtaining a quantity of mushrooms, oysters, and almonds, of the aggregate value of $5,07, from Po Leung by false pretences. Tau Fung went to the shop of To Leung, and representing that he came from the frm of Sai Chi Cheun, ordered the goods, which he chained and took away. When he had gone Fo Loung became suspicious, and sent his compradors to follow Tam Fung. When be found he did not go to Sui Chi Chean's shop, the compradore went there and asked them if they had sent Tam. Fung for the goods. They said they had not. For
