THE EXODUS FROM AMERICA.

Mr. WHITEING thinks of all that, and makes due allowance for the wide inhospit- able areas of the world. Still, with all that, there is the huge balance of the earth fair and beautiful. "limitless for all present and reasonably prospective needs of man." Then, why wars? Mr. WHITRING slept, and had a vision. All the peoples of the world, overy mother's son and daughter of them, did assemble in the Isle of Wight, is their "astrul" forms.

A financial paper remarks: A good deal of British money has been sunk in recent years over the construction of railway in China, and the results obtained have been mest satisfactory. Considerable interest therefore attaches to the annonssement that the concessions for the Tientsin Yangtze and Soochow Ningpo rail- ways are on the point of being sanctioned. The preliminary concesions for these two Huss are the remaining ones in the group of preliminary concessions granted by the Chinese Government some five or six years ago, s8 the others had either been acted upon or bad fallen to the ground. The Tientsin concession represents an amalgamation of British and German interests, in which the Germans hold a two thirds interest, but the Soochow line is wholly British, being merely a branch road running of the British-built Shanghai-Nanking Railway. A good deal of capital will have to be raised when the concar-ions are developed, but no loans will be raised for some time, as the concessionnaires have great Intitude, in this respect. When money becomes cheaper, as it most later on, the market will welcome the raising of the capital required for these lines.

to say, sold rapidly. The bazaar was to have been opened by Lady Lugari, but as she was un- able to attend, Mrs. Stokes was asked to perform, the opening ceremony, and consented. Besides the stalls bearing kuiok knacks, the beauty of which is apparent only to woman, there was a refeshasnt stall, a toy stall and a flower 'sini!, ' all of which were well patroaised.

For some time past it has been known that
