The general impression left with us after reading the lengthy report is concerned with the adaptability of various professiouul men to practieni politics. Inter alia, the value of Judges and the futility of Bishops seems to obtrude. This is not a polite thing to say, but, as Sir H, S. BERKELEY pas it, there is no use in mincing matters. It must be admitted that, as the Judge also said, nearly all the speakers wunder- BLEND ed away from the real question. No one wandered further, it seems to us, than the Rt. Rev.

AN EARNEST REQUEST.

DEAR IR-Will you be kind enough to permit me, through the medium of your columns, to call the attention of His Excellency the Governor to the ridiculously small number of days in the year observed as holidays hero in contrast to those enjoyed by other Crown Colonies and settlements in the Far East gener ally. The regular anqual holidays here may be briefly summarised on an average as follows:-

Good Friday

Easter Monday

Chins New Year for instance falls on a Saturday; the case this year, an extra day or two is thrown in, so that the actual number of days on which business is suspended may be roughly, reckoned at 13 days or even less. This hardship is further accentuated by the Banks and Irance Offices closing on half holidays such as Race or Regattı days at an hour which is too 'e to render the rajoyment of the holiday possible. If we compare the existing state of things here with conditions prevailing elsewhere it will be seen that, considering the fourishing condition the colony is in, and the importance it relatively holds, we are for behind the tiross.I would also respectfully point out to His Excellency that, the present, Holiday Ordinance was ennete ne far back as 1873, that the conditions then and now wil not bear any useful comparison, and that the be so modifiol and amended as to allow for time has come for the existing Ordinance to
