Mr. Wodehouse said that as Father Giebler bad accepted the apology, he would dismiss the other summons, As to the Telegraph article, he would now read it. Having finished the reading, his Worship said he considered it highly improper in every respect, and that it should not have been in- serted, being comments on a case still pending It was most embarrassing and prejudicial to publish any comments on cases while being heard. His attention had been also drawn to a

letter from Father Giebter, where it was sail

a summons had been taken out by him against Mr. Pereira. This should not have been written. The intention was to rouse sympathy for his side. The same remark applied to any other letters on the subject. The paragraph was very injurious to the interests of justice and should not have been written.--Father Giebler, in re- ference to his letter, said he dif not know the law, and only wrote the letter so that the public might know the real facts, as a lot of lies had gone about, and he referred to something which appeared in the Daily Press on the subject, which he said was not correct, Thus cled a case which has created a consider-

able amount of feeling among certain sections of the community. Mr. Loureien, Portuguese Con- sul General, was present in Court, and occupied a sent alongside his Worship. Mr. Francis, the ceansel for Father Giebler, did not put in an appearance at the Police Court to-day, being engaged elsewhere we believe.

THE HONGKONG TELEGRAPH, WEDNESDAY, JULY 12, 1882.

Numerous remnants of chops of fine and finest Congou, after allowing for admitted deterioration low prices, in some instances at 100 to 19. per in quality, have been disposed of at unusually

1b. reduction on what was paid at the commence- ment of last (1881-2) season. The telegrams from China indicate a brisk business, and great shipments to date are estintated from all ports at eagerness in dealing with the new crop. The 35,000,000 lbs. The Indian tea market is dat, and losses to importers are very heavy, owing more to the high cost in Calcutta than to low prices ruling here.

The annual meeting in connection with the China Inland Mission took place on the 6th inst. in Mildmay-park Conference Hall, the Earl of Shaftesbury being in the chain The report, which was read by the Secretary, Mr. B. Broum- hall, reviewed the operations of the society in detail over the various provinces of China, and upon the whole exhibited gratifying results. The Rev. J. Williamson, for sixteen yearsa missionary in China, said that when he went out there was hardly a mission station; now they had a complete chain of them all up the country, and they were worshipping God in many temples fonnerly devot- England was head of all the religias movements ed to idolatrous rites. Lord Shaftesbury said that on the face of the earth, the rand depositing of religious truth, and it was only by being true to that trust that they would find their Divine Master true to them in the times of trouble that seemer to threaten this once happy natam. In the evening Lord Radstock pre- sided. The report having been again read, the Chairman said that the people of England were not half awake to the needs of China. There were hundreds of men in Loukun who could the whole income of this mission out of their own pockets and be the better for it. Common human sympathy, not to speak of Christian bro therliness, ought to force them to step forward and relieve the crying wants of that great country | with its 300,000,000 of heathen. The Rev. F. Gough, MA, the Rev. George Percy, the Rev. Henry Solau, and the Rev. F. W. Baller also spoke.
