even a second Japanese medico has established himself here, and has been engaged for the Customs the good doctor has a Japanese certificate for Lower Proficiency; and why be. should have been engaged in preference to the doctor attached to the Japanese Consulate a gentleman of highly acknowledged professional proficiency, is a mystery about which all sorts of unpleasant rumours are circulated. Some dissatisfaction with the administration of the Customs has manifested self, on account of the little that is being done with regard to lights, buoys and beacons, to Lacilitato navigation on our coast; but I suppose It is a question of the nervus rerum, pecunia. However, that much at least is certain, that the surveys of the approaches to our principal port, mostly due to the skill and genius of those British naval gentlemen, who are specially told off for that purpose, forming a branch of the Navy of their own, have been very carefully made; the charts of the surveyed portions of Korea are as safe to use as those of the China Coast; and at the unsurveyed portions foreigh shipping have no business. Even on the smooth- worn tracks of navigation on the Chins: Coast, there are patches enough marked “ unsurveyed "; take the group ofthe Incog Islands, for instance, Messrs, KELLY & WAL Our local Municipal Council is still in (to teona ; but when It emerges from its infancy, it will have something to start with hear there are now 5.000 to the credit side of the embryo Council's Banking account,
