Ca Tuesday last we published a short para-wood, the Buckenham Stakes, the Triennial, and graph respecting the rapid progress China is making in developing a telegraphic system entirely accross her vast Empire, from Tientsin in the north to Canton in the south. The line from Tientsin to Shanghal, as is pretty well known, follows the banks of the Grand Canal, with principal stations at Sinching, Cheling, Chinklang-poo, (on the banks of the old Yellow Chinking-fu, (on the Yangtare) and Seochow, and from Soochow to Shangbai. This line was constructed in 1881 solely on account of the Chinese Government, and since it was opened in November of that year, it has been worked satisfactorily under native management, and success has attended the enterprise. Lately the Government has sold out its interest in the line to the Imperial Chinese Telegraph Com pany, an association in which Chinese alone arm allowed to take shares. Its capital is $800,000 in shares of $100 each. We are not aware whe ther the Company has been granted any mono- poly rights for the erection of telegmphs in the Empire, but we should imagine not, as the Com- pany is in no way interested in the line that con- nects Nanking with the main line at Soochow. This connecting line was built last sunummer by His Excellency Tso Tsung Tang, but it is freely used for commercial as well as for official pur- poses. The great enterprise that has now assumi ed a most practicable shape, a line from Soochow to Canton, is undertaken by the Imperial Chinese Telegraph Company, and it is expected that nearly twelve months will clapse before the work of construction is completed. From Soochow the line will pass through the populous silk districts to Ningpo, thence it will proceed to Wenchow, Foochew, Chang-chow, Swatow and on to Canton, There is already a telegraphic station at Amoy, and in consequence It seems to have been deemed inadvisable for the new line to touch there, but Chang-chow is not dis- tant more than fifty miles from Amoy. Thus

der Zee, he won the Craven Stakes at Epsom, the Royal Stand Plate at Ascot, and other races; whilst Mayonaise won the Ham Stakes at Good. Bretby Stakes at Newmarket; East Langton taking the Deo Stakes at Chester, the Somerset-- shire Stakes at Bath, Great Surrey Foal Stakes, and other races, Wells having most of the riding,HE although Flatman and Tom Chaloner also wore the scarlet Jacket. In the following season George Fordham on Mayonaise won the One Thousand Guineas Stakes by twenty lengths; but at Epsom, although odds were betted on her, she could only finish fourth, beaten a length from the winner, her stable companion, Summerside. She subsequently won two races al Brighton and the Gratwicke Stakes at Goodwood on the same day that Winton, a two-year-old of Mr. Crawfurd's won the Ham Stakes; and as Wells on Zuyder Zee won the Chesterfield Cup in the same week, the scarlet jacket was then in the ascendant. In the same season Zuyder Zee secured the Granby Handicap and other races; Chapelier won the Column Stakes, Tightfit the Portland Plate at Doncaster, and East Langton the Newmarket Triennial; but in the following year Mr. Crawford had a had, let ties and although Winton won the Cratwicke Stakes and Captain Fortibus divided with Rouge Dragon. the Goodwood Nursery.

For the next seven years Mr. Crawfurd was still unlucky in his horses. At Last, a daughter of Mayonaise, carned that name by scoring a win, after numerous defeats, over Blinkhoolie and others at the Houghton Meeting of 1867. After this slight turn of the tide his luck changed, as Moslem, a son of Knight of St. Patrick and Besika, wan several races, besides dividing the Two Thousand Guincas Stakes, after a dead heat with Fermosa, and it is somewhat singular that, like Lancastrian in later days, he was disqualified for the Derby and St. Leger by the death of his breeder, the late Marquis of Exeter. In 1869 Skipjack won the Eton Handicap, ridden by Cameron, and the Windsor Handicap, with Kenyon in the saddle, on the Windsor course, which has from that day seem exception of landing a grand coup in the two Newmarket Nurseries with Walter and Paimer- ston, its successes in that season were not much to boast of In 1860 Palmerston managed to get second to Kingcraft for the Epsom Derby, al- though a very moderate horse, and Alexander divided with Mr. Savile's champion the New Market Bamtal, Heather Hell and He Bell also winning races.
