SPECIAL NOTICE TO SUBSCRIBERS. At the request of numerous subscribers, we have decided to publish fortnightly, from the beginning of the New Year, a Special Mail issue of the Hongkong Telegraph, to be circulated on the morning of the departure of the English mail steamer. This paper will contain a complete summary of the news for the preceding fortnight, together with reliable share and market reports, and other items of interest, and will be published independently of our usual afternoon issue.
