The Chinese shops wo can.sue in any of our Austral on Chint towns or streets, the only difference being that here they are open right to the back, and John has adapted himself to this hot weathe by discarding all clotiling above the waist. The remarkable and interesting thing about the streets always consist to me in the curious stream of passengers. The Portuguese are the democracy of Hongkong, the winter, but a great number of Chinese monopolising all the clerical posts with their Idiers are busy repainng the wall protecting the cheap labour-bearing the climate, too, better.wn, regardless of the holes made in procuring than the British-and everywhere one meets the necessary mud, for, prognosticated, the their pallid faces and slight trailing forms, or heavy rains damaged the works considerably.

able.-N. C. Daily News., no public monument of real beauty in Australia, and I cannot remember one in England. What a thing it is to belong to a race that does not understand how to combine the file and the dulce in proper proponions. British architecture is the most hideous in the world. We are suf of the street in a few moments, passing through; a refreshing space of green. This is the cricket ground to the left, a delicious lawn, surrounded with trees, the harbour waters sparkling brightly beyond it, while in the upper half, backed with a wall and the thick verdure of the terraces, whence the cathedral tower looks out and the top of an occasional house, squads of the resident regissent are at drill. Then we enter the street. again, solid Government buildings on either side; then on the right the barracks, and so an into a small China quarter, where live the coolies en- gaged in work in the factories to the left along the Barbour. One of theic is a sugar refinery, among the largest in the world; and here comes Queens. land sugar several thousand miles, and can be done, if not better, more cheaply than at home, Barring the dogmas of free trade and provection, in what a scrape New South Wales and Queens- Jand would be and indeed Australia as a whole, were any hostile fleet to hold the seas. It reminds ne of the Southern States of America during the in secession war when the cotton had to rot prodigious crops on the land, because there were no native manufactories: It becomes a question whether for a continent like ours, stretching from tropics to regions of ice and snow, and capable of producing all the requirements of a great and complex civilisation, that national sacrifice and public charity which we know as protection, might not be worth the making for a season,. in ortier as soon as possible to insure our manu- factures. In a few minutes we are. out of the town, and begin the ascent of small rolling hills, always through the dense tropical verdure, amidst which huge and many-coloured butter flies and all species of flying insects sport in the intense, tepid sunlight and the shrilling of the locusts, which soon "is a burthen." We aré going over the spur which divides two gorge and the flats at their bases. The hill summit is reached, and down we go through a small grove, and in a moment are in Happy Valley. It is a lovely place Right back, high up, the green hill is cleft by a wedge-shaped gorge. At the foot of it spreads out a large alluvial Bat. The great central portion of this, hedged round with irees and a running stream, is a green open To the right the whole space-the racecourse. side of the spur is taken up with the cemeteries. We pass along under the tall cemetery wall. First comes the gate of the Mahommedan burial ground; then the Catholic gate, with its Latin inscription: "To-day for you; to-morrow for me." Then the Protestant, and last the Hindoo. I have seen nothing lovelier anywhere than the Protestant cemetery. Not even the hideous British tombs can spoil it, nor the British sense of "order" utterly formalise it. Everywhere are trees and ferns and flowers, fountains and running streams, and all these in their bush luxuriance of radiant colour and caseful greenery. Winding upward paths and protruding stone add the final touch. Man, poor, passionate, much-designing man, sleeps here at last in the lap of his mother Nature. Above him tower the sheer precipitous rocks of the hill that seems swimming in the intense blue. High up; as if to show how high, creeps round the hill-face the arched structure of "the aqueduct, that looks like a coloured thread. Before lies the expanse of trees and grass, and the gleaming channel, and the sombre mainland.

THE NEGLECT OF LIFE ASSURANCE.
THERE is no feature of our civilised life that strikes a thoughtful man with more force than the neglect of LIFE ASSURANCE. BY payment of a small quarterly subscription any man of good health can secure a very large sum to his family in case of premature death, yet hundreds of familles brought up in comfort- pertinps in luxury--are left in extreme poverty every year from the bread winner having neglected to assure his life. In the East many a man lives up to his income, knowing well that if death cut him off suddenly, his wife and children would be left almost wholly unprovided for. All this can be prevented by Life Assurance,
