prevented the advancement of the work Further, no sleps were taken beforehand-te- divert the current, and the result was that the volume of water that kept rushing up to the breach grew greater day by day until at length when the freshets did arrive no closure was possible. Li Hung-isas and his colleagues can not escape blame for the inefficiency of the management. Having regard to the statement that the matter, is beset with difficulties, h would serve no good purpose if We were to force them reluctantly to press on the work. and We therefore command that it be tempor arily postponed, that steps be taken for safe- guarding what has been already finished, and that materials be collected for immediately it as soon as the autumn freshets shall scanning have subsided. Li Ho-nien, as Director-General of the River, was invested with a responsibility which could not devolved on others. On the day he tock leave of Us he boasted that he would complete the work in a very short time. From the time be reached his post however, the whole tone of his reports was of an cvasive, nature, and he never exerted himself in the least to press on the work. His whole conduct was uiding and perfunctory, with the resul that the work has miscarried on the eve of completion, and public funds have been wasted, His offence and that of Cheng Fu are alike, and if either of them were left at the work, it can scarcely be expected that they would attain any success. We command that Li Ho-nien be stripped of his feather and his brevet rank and -that-bath-he-and-Ch'eng-Fu-be-sent to the military post roads to atone for their guilt. Li Hung-16ao was the officer in supreme control of the work, and Ni Wen wel had joint responsibility with him. They had neither metbet nor fixed plans in the direction of the work, and they are also blameworthy. We command therefore that both Li Hung-Isso and Ni Wen-wei be degraded to third class rank and left for the present at their posts. We have already deputed Wa Ta-cheng io act as Director General of the Yellow River, and we command Li Hung-180 to remain in charge until his arrival, after which he will proceed at once to Peking. Shao Hsien and Pan Chu-wen, who "were in charge of the works at the cosiern-and- western embankments, both failed to attain any measure of success, and have incurred a grave penalty; let them both be degraded and remain they at the work to atone for their offence. If again fail to exert theftselves and to assure the of the new work they will assuredly be
See dealt with. We have direed the
Board of Revenue to raise large funds with ut delay for the prosecution of the work, and We command Li Hong-isao to take the requisite measures for diverting the current, making excavations and.collecting supplies of materials, furnishing Us at the same time with a minute report on the subject. He and Ni Wen-wei will ascertain the names of the civil and military authorities at the two embankments who have contributed to the present mishap and denounce them unsparingly.
FOREIGN TRADE AT CHINKIANG.
THE HONGKONG TELEGRAPH, MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 3, 1888.
The Chinaman prospers and has all his heart can desire and his comfort is greatly added to by the good order which the foreigner maintains; but on the other hand, the foreigner is barely able to make his "chow," and is at all times annoyed, especially at night, by the disorder and noiso introduced by the Celestial.
The question which now naturally arises is, where are we to look for an explanation of this state of things? and there is only one reply. Four merchants, three of whohi are absent, have by book, and if rumour speaks truly, sometimes by crook, obtained possession, nominally at any rate, of nearly the whole concession. (I use the word nominally advisedly, as I am perfectly aware that, in one case at least, the property does not belong to the merchant, but is merely "held in trust by him for a Chinaman).
Now the only possible interest that the three absentees can have in the Concession is to let their houses to the highest bidders; they ask no questions as to who the people are, or for what purposes the houses may be taken; that does not affect them in the slightest degree, so long as the dollars are forthcoming; the fourth gentle man who still remains in the port, follows well in the footsteps of his absent brothers; lately he has astonished everyone by opening one of his houses, directly on the Bund, as a Chinese Hotel (the usual number of "sing-song" girls, etc., being kept) much to the disgust and annoyance of every resident in the place except himself.
I have done, but before closing I would say this last word: that if someone in authority does not very soon look into these matters, Chinkiang as a British Concession will be a thing of the past; it may retain its name, but most, certainly not its nature.

Dr. Macgowan, some years ago, said that the sickness which ravaged Shanghai was "dry cholern" and the Tientsin people seem to have something answering to this phrase. upon them,

An immense body of water has come down from the mountains and higher levels.

The crops of Indian com and millet, which 14 days ago were promising well-indeed, were said to be the finest seen in memory ofman, are in danger of being destroyed. It is a most miserable state of things, and the floods this year are quite as bad as they were in 1886 and 1887.
The steamer Fangthus, Capt. Tisdall, which was fitted with a new engine last winter on the quadruple expansion system, arrived at our lund at 8 pm. on the 23rd inst. She left Shangbai on the morning of the 21st inst., and made her trip from port to port in exactly clays, or Go hours, The voyage, is the quickest on record. The Heras once made the Journey in about 6 hours. The Fungshun's engines work admirably well, and her Increased speed, greater cargo capacity, and reduced coal con- sumption are very notable. The actual supe- riority of the new engines over the old ones, which were, in their day, very fine, surpasses 25 per cent.
The works at Port Arthur, entrusted to the French Syndicate, are meeting with considerable hindrance. Of the four sides of the basin three are walled almost completely, wanting only

The passenger traffic by rail between Tientsin and Taku opened two days earlier than expected, viz., on 21st August. The cars were crowded. The pace, at first slow, was increased as the people gradually lost their alarm, and they felt like the Taoist sage Lich Tsz riding on the wind.

The Shanghai Magistrate has issued a metrical six-syllable proclamation, in which he orders that no animals shall be killed for food for five days, during which officials and people will engage in prayer for a more healthy season. The frequent sudden deaths of late are the visitation of Heaven for our sins, not only against moral, but dietetic and sanitary principles, by eating cold raw fruit,

At San-sha, in the Ful-ning Prefecture, Fukien Province, the Hepl'ai (Colonel) hired a number of Yellow-caps (Taoist priests), to perform the ceremony called Releasing the Water Star, by the great bridge. A man in the crowd threw stone into the river, when the Colonel's people, curaged at his breaking the charm, dragged him into the yamen. The crowd stormed the Colonel's yamen, dragged him out in triumph and released him, and the gentry are not inclined to let the maiter rest here but are petitioning the Ch'en-tai (General) about the matter.

We regret to record the death, at Kai-ping of Mr. John Naylor, a native of Lancaster, 'nged 35, in the employ of the Chinese Engineering and Mining Company as Senior Overman. He joined the service five years ago, and has only recently brought his wife to China, who survives him with a young family of four, the eldest of whom is 12 years of age. He was greatly respected by all classes of Chine e and foreigners alike. His death was caused by a severe attack of dysentery.
A regular communication by first-class pas senger steamers between this port and Hongkong. and Canton will soon be opened. Just now some large steamers belonging to the Indo-China Company's line come to our port occasionally, but Messrs. Butterfield & Swire.are also going to compete for the trade. Their first steamer, a vessel like the Tungchow, has already arrived at Hongkong, and will soon open their new line. The powerful and well disciplined.

The savages are rapidly tendering their submission.
The correspondent of the Shanghai Mercury writes under date August 26th -
Foreign merchants in Chinking are still growling at the continued decrease in, their business; various reasons are given by them as to the cause, but so far as I know they have not yet struck one of the chief. In one of the papers lately a letter appeared, evidently penned by them, in which the whole blame was thrown on the shoulders of H.M.'s Conal and our Commissioner of Customs. This was most unjust, for these two officials have at.all times done their best to further the interests of all foreigners in the port even under most trying circumstances.; in the matter of transit passes, about which we have heard so much, and which is the great cause of complaint it is the merchants themselves who are to blame for having been so short-sighted as to agree to the conditional rules in the first instance. These rules were agreed to many years befort our pre- sent Consul and Commissioner arrived, and this being the case, it is scarcely fair to blame them if they find it difficult to rectify what the mer- chants now think was a mistake. These two. officials have a prost delicate task to perform; they have to re-open a dispute which was settled by their predecessors, and further to induce the Chinese to give up the advantage they then obtained. At all times it is next to impossible to make a Chinaman give up anything once allowed to him, and in the present instance it is doubly difficult, as there is only one way, and that is for HM,'s Consul to demand the necessary alter- ation as a Treaty right and to take no refusal ; but this would be a most dangerous step for any
