Boxerong," WEDNESDAY, JULY 18, 1888,

The success of Senhor Horts's candidature over his comprator, Senhor Amana, at the elections held on Sunday in Macao will be easily understood if one takes into coedderation two vital facts which militated th fivor of the victorious Candidate-his qvowed connection with this clerical party in the Holy Chy and the immensurable influence, that party pr1ssfckAis, fropion! or for evil, in the Gem of the orient earth.". Fighting the charge has ever been a hard and à dangerous venture, for the robed adversaries are known to excel in the subtle, tactics of evading, ghost-like, all the blows aimed at them, while in the same fiendish, invisible manner, they deal Fatal knocks on their opponents.

The words complained of were to the effect that the plaintiff had edited certain addresses delivered in the Colonial Assembly, of which it was his day to defendant pleaded a justification. The plaintiff declined to allow inspection of the copies of the reports and other documents which were in his possession as Governor of Mauritius, on the ground that it would be prejudicial to the public service to do so, and he had been directed by the Colonial Secretary not to produce them. Their lordships held that the plaint? was en-

SAVS the L. and C. Express The Admiralty have decided that the mobilisation of the fleet shall take place between the 20th and 24th af Juae, the commanders of marine divisions having been ordered to have such marines as have been told off for service with the fleet ready by that date. No orders have been sent to the dock- yards, but it is understood in the navy that the send reports to the Colonial Secretary, and the evening he saw a crowd round a house at No 23rd would be the date selected for the commis sioning of the ships to take part in the manoeuvres. Arrangements are being made in view of orders being received to this effect. Truth is rather in favour of hanging. It is quite as humane, and infinitely more efficacious, than killing a criminal by electric shocks, as the New Yorkers have decided to do in future. The only tolerable argument in favour of capital punishment is its deterrent effect, and for this purpose there is something about the very name of the gallows which the most powerful electric battery will never be able to compete with.

OPINIONS may differ, says Truth, as to the precise position which, Sir Frederick Leighton occupies in the art world; but there can be no doubt that he discharges the society functions of his office as P.R A. in an extremely graceful and courteous manner. His short but eloquent speech at the Italian Exhibition, on the 13th ulto. was admirable slike in form and taste, and quite a model of what such an oration ought to be. Among the assembled journalists and other notabilities were Sir Henry Layard, Mr. Alma Tadema, Mr. Andrew Lang, Mr. Lucy, Mr. Manville Fenn, and Mr. Oscar Wilde, who was so much impressed by the President's cloquence, that he was moved to regres that Sir Frederick ever wasted his time in painting pictures all The speech of Commendatore Bonghi was delivered in excellent English, with a strong foreign accent; but there was so much loud talking among the guests, that it was almost inaudible to the majority of the company.
