The last named, we believe, arrived by the Fooksa last week, and are said to have displayed gallop ing abilities of a high order before leaving Shanghai. They are certainly very promising ponies, so far as make and shape are concerned, and although two of them are of a colour-very dark iron grey-which is sadly at a discount amongst racing men in China, we are not dis. posed to place much dependence upon what is probably mere prejudice. Horses and ponies race in all colours as in all shapes. The third one is a handsome black, with a powerful back and loins, and rare quarters which ought to send him up the Black Rock hill in good style later on, unless appearances in this case are unusally deceptive. The whole of Mr. Lewis' ponics-with| the exception of the smaller ofthe dark greys which distinguished itself by bucking off the riding boy and bolting homewards-did, healthy exercise, trotting about a couple of miles and then gallop ing a quarter of a mile as fast as they could go The Derby ponies seemed to get over the ground in fairly good form; and of the two subscription griffins we considered that the spotted one dis played most galloping ability, although we must admit, that the white, albeit the want of length and liberty in his frame, nioved in a leyel and taking manner. Mr. MacOniodds, who had not witnessed his own string exercised, arrived on the scene just as the spotted griffin finished his quarter mile, and was so impressed with the per- formance, that he declared he was "full up against that particular racer.

Sir Richard Temple, in addressing the Geo- graphical Section of the British Association on Friday last, was concerned with a subject of great and almost romantic interest. The vast territory which he designates comprehensively the Plateau of Mid-Asia includes the countries of Thibet and Eastern Turkestan, the desert of Gobi, the whole of Mongolia, and a part of Si- beria and of China. It was as a protection

this vast territory that the Great Wall of China was built by Tein Hoangli, and across this enor- mous theatre swept six and a half centuries ago the myriads of the Mongol hordes under the magic leadership of Genghis Khan and his suc- cessors. That part of the Great Wall which Genghis attacked was garrisoned by the Ongut tribe, who treacherously admitted him, cnabling him to gain easy possession of the northern pro vinces of Chiria. The story of his marvellous pro. gress is well known. Each year witnessed a fresh incursion of the Mongols, further conces
