taken his passage up in the Kat Tung, but Mr. Hiller responded, saying how very much sbliged they were by the honour, how small his perse pal share in the work had been, all he had done being to make himself as useful as possible in translating the numerous docuinents involved,

Mr. Macgregor, with the permission of the Chair, then rose and said :-Gentlemen-1 can. not add anything to General Kennedy's remarks, but there is one name that we should not let pass unmentioned. China has shewn before now that she is not afraid to speak to her enemies at her gates, and she is now preparing to admit her friends freely at ber gates. Very much of this is due to the energy and ability of Sir Robert Hart, the presiding genius of the Customs service. As a committeeman of the Chamber of Commerce, I can say that we have always received his sympathy; on behalf of the Munici. pality, though his interests have not come particularly in contact with it, I can say the same; but I know that as a man and as Inspector General he will be pleased to know that this werk is begun. I couple with the toast to Sir Robert Hart the name of Mr. Commissioner Mackcan.

The toast was received with cheers, and Mr. Mackean in acknowledging it said:--

Gentlemen-He would be a bold man who would undertake to speak the mind of the Inspector-General on any subject; but I am sure that he will be filled with profound sensations of gratitude to his masters. And Sir Robert may congratulate himself on this; the Chinese Government on one side is pleased, the Diplo matic Body is pleased; and his chief master, Commerce, is pleased. I cannot say more but that I am full of gratitude and thank you heartily in Sir Robert's name.

The Chun Ho was now rapidly nearing Shanghai, and the impromptu aisembly broke up, its members preparing to land, wishing each other good-bye. and once more thanking the Tactal and Mr. Bredon for the pleasant aftemoon spent, and the opportunity they had had to be present at the inauguration of a work so important to the future of Shang- bai. The P. & O. buoy was reached, soon after five, and the landing of the passengers was rapidly effected in a swarm of steam- launches. That there are grave difficulties, and as the Akash incident shewed, dangers in Cap- tain Fyfe's way, is obvious, but there is full con- fidence that he will overcome them, and that in a very little while à sensible impression will be made on the Bar, which it is possible that the tides themselves will assist, when a narrow channel has been cut, as it is intended to do in the first instance.-N.

beat to enforce the rights of those appainting the Committee. Would the Officers of the Amoy Club pay the least respect to any such assumption of authority? And if they did not, should they be charged with feelings of "hostility "One would naturally suppose that the hostility was altogether on the other side, Now the supposition made above is the exact. counterpart of what the gentlemen did, who met in the Amoy Club Rooms on the 25th ultimo: for they had no more authority over the Seamen's Club ihan gentlemen meeting on a similar call. n the Seamen's Club Rooms would have over, the Amoy Club. Yet because the Trustees of the Seamen's Club refused to acknowledge such suthority, (and for no other known rensen,) they are charged with hostility to the Amoy Community! Can it be that of all the gentle- men composing that Meeting, there, were none aware of the fact that in assuming themselves to be a tribual to sit in judgment on, and call to account the Trustees of the Seamen's Club, and the Missionary body, they were guilty of very grave assumption of authority? Did they not know that the utterance and publication of charges (expressed or implied) of criminality is a most serious matter, not for those against whom the charges are made, but for those making them? Of course the Trustees could in no way submit to or acknowledge the authority of such a Meeting

The Meeting held in the Amoy Club Rooms on the gth instant, may be called a continuation of that held on the agih ultimo, as that Meeting did not adjourn, but only dispersed," awaiting a call to re-assemble and listen to the report of their Commitee. This is proved also by the authoritative language of the "Express" design- ating the time and place of Meeting, by the object of the Meeting as defined in the "cull," and by the attached signature, as.

We hear that the opening price of the first crop Peiling tea is somewhat like Tls. 2 higher then last season, and that the quality is a little better.

It is currently reported that the Arsenal Com missioner has become insane, in consequence of" the newly launched steamer which was buil under his orders being found ineffective. We are informed that an arrangement is about to be made with some one, who is well learned in the art of ship Building, to re-construct the same at. a cost of some TI, 400,0:0,

The following correspondence is extracted

We understand that'a contract has been con- from the Amoy Gazette-

DEAR SIR, There still seem to be many included between the Portuguese Government and correct impressions abroad in reference to the the Norddeutscher Lloyd whereby the steamers Seamen's Club, and consequently sericus of the company will make Lisbon a port of call, both on their homeward and outward voyages. - charges are made against the Missionaries at Amoy because of their relation to the said Club. If such charges had been made only by irres ponsible individuals, probably no notice would have been taken of them; but as they are made and very persistently reiterated by men of high position, and have appeared in the "Minutes" of certain Meetings held in the Amoy Club Rooms on the 25th ultimo and the gth instant, which "Minutes ", were published in your paper (April 26th and May ritb), it seems a duty to take some notice of them. Having had intimate connection with the Club in its inception and organization, and fram, that time to the present, I trust you will allow me space for a few re marks on the subject.

That for the Missionaries to 'consent to the furnishing of beer or other intoxicating liquors in the building would be a violation of their trust, I think no one will deny who carefully reads the accurate (though very brief) account of the formation of the Club published in your paper of April 27th and May 9th. But if any one is yet not satisfied on this point, and wishes fuller information, he can obtain the same-by calling on the Secretary, who, I have no doubt, will be most happy to show to any gentleman the whole history of the Club from its organiza- tion until now, as recorded in the books and papers of the Club. Would it not have been more honorable for gentlemen to have sought information in this, or any other legitimate way, before passing resolutions of condemnation of the Missionaries, as was done in the Amoy Club Rooms, on the 25th ultimo ?

Now, a few words as to the character of that Meeting. It was called together by a paper (called an "Express") which designedly contained reflections on the Missionaries, and which, I suppose for this reason, was without signature. Is it usual for honorable gentlemen to attend a Meeting called by an anonymous paper of such a character? surely it was not expected that Missionaries would attend, and yet the gentle "men, who met at such a call, assumed to represent the "Community of Amoy," and took it on themselves to call the Missionaries to account for not being presenti Why did they not berate the rest ofibe Community for staying away?

The object for which they assembled, accord. ing to the above mentioned Call was "to con- sider the practicability of buying the property [of 'the Sailor's Club, or taking other steps to provide for the rational well-being of the crews of such vessels of war as may visit the port from time to time." A very worthy object. But in the Meeting held, according to the published Minutes, this object was not once even alluded to. Instead thereof, Mr. D. M. Wright "stated that the object of the Meeting was to consider

We understand that the Director of the Arsenal has been making large reductions in the personnel with a view to economy. About 100 men have been discharged from the torpedo and cannon-foundry departments, with 81 students and 15 teachers, besides other employés, A saving of Tin. 100,000 per annum is expected from this reduction in the Arscual staff

It is now positively certain that the new tea- although no samples have as yet been shown- will be of a very superior quality, but prices are Tis. 1 to 3 per picul dearer than last season. As far as the crop is concerned we learn that the first will be a full one, and that there will be very little or no second crop. We hope the tea- men will adhere to their intention of net sending samples until the end of June, which will do an incalculable amount of good to all concerned.

Six native manufacturers of spurious cark have been arreated a few days ago, and we learn that the authorities have succeeded in finding out that these poor men were simply filling up indents from the money changers, who for obvious reasons prefer to have their supply of money coloed on the sly than in the Imperial Mint. As many as twenty of these cozeners, who were talaly out-cozened, have the police on their tracks.

We published sometime ago a translation by an occasional correspondent of an official pro- clamation dealing with the native banking system, in which some very stringent rules were promulgated for the government of bankern and for the prevention of runs on them. We now bear that their lot is rendered all the more harder by fresh enactments of a quasi-draconian character and that the majority of them have thought it more preferable to put up their shutters than continuing with their business under such 'severe, restrictions, one of which being that every five bankers shall have to stand security for the honesty of one of their number. The small money-changers, according to the latest enactment, are to be wiped off the face of the earth altogether. This will, in a measure, be a boon specially to the poorer classes, inas much as these bankers-in-a-petty-way have all' along arrogated to themselves the right of issuing paper money, the payment of which can safely be relegated to the Greek Kalends in the event of any little difficulty cropping up.
