We are, of course, not aware in what sense the Portuguese resi- dents of this Colony will take their Consul General's anything but complimentary ob- servations; but we certainly have a very clear idea of what we should have considered our duty could we have claimed the honor of being born in the land which Camoens has immortalised. According to Mr. LotR-

kixo, the term "mal criado" is in comi-

'mon use in every household; it cannot be insulting as it is used by parents to chil dren every day, and sometimes even by children to parents. This is strange -if true. The Consul General for Portugal further had the bad taste to say in effect, in reply to a question from Mr. Hos that the so-called Portuguese residents here knew about as much of the Portuguese lan- guage as he (Mr. Hormes) did. This was no doubt meant to be smart; but we think, for Mr. Lorgino's credit, it would have

on being asked the meaning of the Portu- guese word canalha, oracularly observed that it was a synonym of the French word canaille, and meant "blackguard." The Portuguese Consul General may possibly [431 know the Portuguese language better than any other person in Hongkong, although we have excellent reasons for thinking otherwise, but it is quite evident he knows very little French, and we might almost say equally as little English. There was a time when the scullions and inferior ser-

The French word camilly is used merely to indicate the lower classes, the rabble, a mob, or the dregs of the population The French equivalents for the English word "blackguard" are polisson and gout, which havea very different signi- fiation to maille. So that in trying to show how excessively clever he was, the Portuguese Consul General overshot the mark, and like the gentleman whose vaulting ambition was so notorious, came down" a cropper" on the other side.
