he is an ex-cook of a German brig and has lately been discharged from the Custotns' Service, a nice character indeed to be manager of the "crack" hotel of the Colony. The person in question was walking up and down the Hall, cursing and swearing at the proprietors, who were not there, the performance Hall at this time being crowded with people, waiting to see the Billiard nateli.wanting in due respect for the commissioned submit to such provocation." It further scathingly Galops, l'olkas, &c., by the best Composers,

No one seems to have been in charge of the Hotel, and he had everything his own way. At this stage of the proceedings the smoked Britisher, Brown, made his appearance on the scene, also beastly drunk, and tried to pacify the furious manager, and a better minstrel show you never saw. Matters began to look serious' with those two drunken men having full charge of the Hotel; so much so, that the performance could not go on for some time, and Mr. Dorabjee was sent for. In the meanting, Brown in sulted and blackguarded several genticmen, and threatened to strike the professor, who never said a word to him. I wonder some one did not knock down the drunken bully. A constabic by and bye arrived, and the manager gave himself in charge and walked off with the policeman, and tortunately did not return. Mr. Dorabjee and several of his friends then arrived, and Brown was turned out with the assistance of the police, certainly a nice state of affairs for a first class Hotel. The performance then began, but several of the west end "sports" full of liquor tried their utmost to make themselves disagreeable, passing loud and offensive remarks during the billiard match, although frequently asked to desist. These persons should have known better, several of them holding licenses themselves; and they ought to be forbidden the use of the hotel if they do not know how to behave themselves in good company.

ranks, even of Volunteers. On the contrary, esteem them so highly that, like Goldsinith's Citizen-of-the-world, "--even-though - I-knew the Captain was slowed away privately un- der the bed in my sleeping apartment, I would calmly take a dish of my wife's cool tea, and talk of the army with reverence. But why, I would ask, should the question of a separate rifle corps be allowed to stand over, or, in other words, be sticlved, for it practically amounts to this? A rifle comis, I conceive, is the very thing wanted for the Colony, and should even take precedence of an Antillery Corps, which is very good, ho doubt, in its way, but not the one only thing needed for Hongkong. A rifte corps, loo, would attract numbers to its ranks who do not care about going in in this climate for the hard work in volved in big gun drill. By the bye, now that medical examination to test fitness for service in the Volunteers is to be introduced, will the chest measurement required in recruits for the Royal Artillery be exacted in the-Artillery Volun cers? If it be, I fancy a good many of these I saw at the meeting at the City Hall on Thursday evening will scarcely nicet the requirement; if we are to have an Artillery corps, only men of adequate physique should be admitted into the ranks. Hoping to see the implied slur cast on our brave infantry removed by inmic diate steps being taken for the formation of a Volunteer Rifle Corps,

towards his host is an uncouth barbarian, deserv- ing of no respect." There is outspoken severity in this. Referring to the late war between the two countries, it says that Germany may accuse France of frivolity, but the latter will never forget the barbarity of the former. After recounting the the bombardment of Paris, Strasbourg, etc., the affairs of the burning of Bareilles and Chateaudun;

After a caustic arraignment of the "uncouth barbarian," and a vivid setting forth of his mo tive in quitting fatherland to settle in pleasant France, the journal in question continues with something that looks very much like nervous ap- prehension, in this language: We do not object to this. They may enter our factories, our work. shops, to carry away the secret of our manufac tures and to establish in Prussia, or Saxony, a more or less lower competition with our artisans and work-people. We willingly consent. But when, after pillaging and despoiling us--after they come to this Paris to sing the Watch on the Rhine and to threaten us with their armies, we find that they are overstepping every limit." This does give an ungratifying look to German settlement in France. It may be an overdrawn picture. It is written by an ardent Frenchman who concludes his article with a hope that this incident" will cure his country. men of "the mania for wanting to disarm their Government against foreigners.**
