any Journal in the world. That is a strong, statement, but you can prove it as I bave done. Since beginning this letter my newspaper mail from America has come in and I have skimmed the papers to find in four of them- Sunday issues of the Baston Herald, Philadelphin Time 5 Paul Ploneer Press and Chicago THEATRE New of Saturday, double sheet-an average of four credited bits on each page of reading matter and a gross amount of, space which may be had four articles from the same issue. Well, it guessed at four columns. Every one of them na it a good scheme: Truth publishes nearly all its stuff in cut-apart paragraphs, that stand ready for the exchange editor's scissors. But that is not the reason. Exchange editors, praise the Lord all ye who read newspapers, have more brains than a little and often more common sense than newspaper proprietors have dollars to pay for good onginal stuff, Try selling, some of you who doubt this, and it.

[FROM OUR CORRESPONDENT,]

-MACAO, 17th May; 1883, - Wulke news from Timor is coming down upon us thick and fast. The last mail brought intelligence of the revolt of some ten thousand natives; who, after insulting the Portuguese au- thorities, in their own way, hoisted up a red flag on the approach of a steam yacht conveying troops from Delhi to the province or kingdom of Itucubaba, fired on the landing party and hooted the gunboat as she discharged her broadside, | damaging a few of the cocoa-nut trees. The casus belli is vaid to be owing to undue extor- tion of taxes by the Portuguese Government, who seem to be at loggerheads in financial matters, having been compelled to borrow money from pri in the city. The World dwelleth near Covent Truth lives in aristocratically furnished offices vate individuals in order to pay the Government Garden Market. A recent London correspondent officials, in February and March last. It is resaid that the editor of the World was built upon ported that an auxiliary force is going to leave the architectural designs of a coffee-pot. That this for Timor shortly. May the god of war lead must not be believed, for the early history of the coffee-pot is traceable to an origin in which its them to victory.

race may have pride, and I can thus suggest some difference.. However, Mr. Yates is a clever man, a monstrous toady, one who sneers at America whenever he gets a chance, and there fore does not deserve to be liked by Americans, and in't by, those who know most about him. He has written a few good novels and many others, and has done a great deal of rattling journalistic work in his time. He Grant for the New York Herald in 1873 wrote the account of the inauguration of

and signedit, and half the reporters of the paper threatened to commit suicide because their style of writing was laughed at by somebody, and Yates got 8104 (20 guineas) a column and didn't do the work as well as they could. The World is continually after any mistakes of Truth.. When AMAHS ACCOMPANYING CHILDREN WILL BE it finds one, or thinks so, it begins its correction, "No, Henry, the story," etc. Mr Labouchere

While Portuguese Influence in that island is so fast decreasing, it is encouraging to see how prosperous the natives of Timor are under Dutch rule. There is scarcely ever any rumour of dis- turbances; on the contrary, the Dutch portion of Timor is conspicuous for its commercial pros- perity, and for the contentment of its people. As a colonial nation, the Dutch are now far ahead of their old rivals in the East, their settlements in Java and in Timor greatly surpassing in the wisdom and liberality of their laws, in progress and in civilisation those cramped up Portuguese possessions which go by the pseudonym of

colonies!

in error it begins, "No, Edmund, the fact," etc. It seems to me, who cannot determine, as a rule, which is right, that between them bonors are casy. Twice they were after each other when both were wrong on questions of the Egyptian war. The World is prosperous, I dare say. It ought to be, for one cannot deny that it is a readable sheet, and although given to tondyism, is Truik's only rival. It has two specialties, **Letter to Eminent Persons" and " Celebrities at home,"

Revating to Macao, nothing further has trans- pired from the intimation that the Govemor inis Henry, and when Truth catches the World Council had taken steps to employ large sums from the Treasury in ameliorating the distresses of this colony, improving the condition of our harbour and in other urgent public works. We remain in statu quo, and we deserve to do so. Portugal is evidently gambling the colony away, contented so long as the metropolis can draw hard money from our immoral sources of revenue. The home authorities are not in the least in- terested in the welfare ofthe colonies. The colonial authorities look only after their own personal interests. Anything that does not promote directly or indirectly their material prosperity, is quite foreign to them. As half of our population derive their means of subsistence from the civil list, their status as citizens is simply mil. Their constitu. tional liberties are sunk in an abject party spirit. They are apt to nod assent to the most extrava- gant measures adopted by their ultra-retrograde masters. The other half of the population is un- fortunately so poor through the total absence of trade, that they are quite powerless to speak to

and to act.

Now cometh Life. Well, Lifet has just started an edition in New York. There is no reason why Life is so called, except that its title is furthest removed from the character of the sheet itself. Well, you could worship Life without infringing upon your obedience to the second command- ment, for it is like nothing in heaven aboy, the earth beneath or the waters under the earth. If 1 intermpt the general run of this narrative to tell the experience of a literary gentleman of eminence who had dealings with Life you will know more about it. He had been writing v long this state of things will prevail, it is for the Pall Mall Gasette, and Life had impossible to foretell. But it is earnestly to be regulary copied bir material and com- hoped, that some providential, sweepinglessonmaymented upon it and the style in complimen- sooner or later scatter to the winds that igno-tary terms. The Pall Mall. Gazette pays £5 minious system of colonial policy which the step- mother country is enforcing upon her derelict dependency of the Far East.

LONDON "SOCIETY" JOURNALS.

The London correspondent of the San Fran cisco Chronicle makes the following interesting comments on the above named subject:-

There are two classes of newspapers in Lon- don. One Includes the papers which are too dignified to say anything at all, and the other those which have no dignity to give what they say weight. Then there are the society papers, which, like the future estate of the sailors, re-

If quire a place all to themselves. this screed will be about the society Journal, These stand in the order of naming-Truth, edited by Labouchere, the World, by Edmund Yates; the Whitehall Review, by nobody knows whom; Life, which is not edited at all; Our Society, whose editor changes weekly Modern "Sadity whose columns are written deftly in with the scissors, and Vanity Fair, edited by everybody. Truth has more brains in it than all the rest put to gether, circulates more than the whole lot, has a better class of contributors, makes more money and is Independent, respectable, readable, pros- perous and decent." Mr. Labouchere, who edits the paper, is a rich man and a man of brains. He began life as a diplomat and was at Washing ton for a long, long time. I don't think he was ever much of a diplomat or that he ever took in terest enough in anything to excel in it, until he probably got tired one day of being tired and went He started with Edmund Yates, the World which was the fint of the society journals, It was published weekly and sprang foto a deserved popularity by reason of the interest in its columns, There's no doubt about it--they made it one of the most readable papers in London up to the time Truth was started.. I don't know what took place to separate the founders of the paper, but probably Vates thought he himself knew too much to havea partner and Labouchere knew that he himself did, and then came separation. Truth is just six years old. It wears striking dress and has a plum- colored outside. The figure of Truth, holding aloft her fooking-glass and lamp, has become familiar the world round. I have seen it everywhere and it is always in demand lo clubs. Every now and again somebody to heard suppose." Traith

I did: I wrote them' considerable matter-in all some dozen pages. At the end of the month, when all newspaper accounts are paid, I wrote, asking for a settlement. No reply. Went in again, found due. Was told that I was to shillings a column. The owner of the paper and asked for the money. Determined to colled it. Had great deal of Sharp, difficulty. Finally pushed the matter and got it and in the pursuit had a talk with the editor. He said:. We pay Charles Reade or Wilkie Collina 35 per week for a story and we can't afford to pay any more for other mat- We have half a dozen men who get so much a week. But, berides that, this is how we work it: We publish a nice notice of some mem- ber of the nobility and send him a copy of the paper. Usually he is flattered. We ask him if he will subscribe, and in any case to send us at his pleasure any news of bis whereabouts, the publication of which will, we are sure, re- Jieve him of much trouble and be of value to the public, who have the deepest interest in his movements This usually catches him for a subscription for a couple of papers, whose ad- dreas we change at his wish and convenience. When we get notice to change we have also information of his movements, and thus we have a subscriber and contributor of news at the same time. Now we publish a picture of some social beauty every week. Na srouble ha et them? Bless you, no. They are to be had the dosin. They send them in by groups. Here's one today, just in- Countess, and here's her letter. Well, she's to ugly. We can't use her. She's not a beauty. If she were a passably good-looking woman we would idealizo her por- trait a litle and fasucit. We don't charge the picture, but give the subject to understand that she is to take fram 200 copies up. Then she becomes a contributor of her movements and her friends.
