The foreign guild offered the Shang hai Taolai this year Ts. 16,000 (so it is said) to let them import freely, but he replied "Pay an every article." There is no Internal duty on kerosene, as they say "It is cheaper purchase a transit pass than to pay duty Now Mr. Editor, I could find out the inwardness of this, but the officials are very kind to grant as the right of residence and we are here not to watch foreign trade, but surely what is heard on the streets we have a right to repeat. The young
men at the shops are all very sociable and chatty Perhaps I may be "green" in supposing this not according to the treaty, but if so, the encyclopedia in the editorial sanctum can easily furnish the desired correction. It has, however, occurred to the mind, if these' things are done in the green tree under the shade of which the European Consuls are so quietly reclining, how must it be a thousand miles from the ports?
If the foreign Hong could sell directly to the native merchants without the intervention of compradore, shroff, Yamien runners, internal barriers, etc., foreign goods would soon take the lead. As one corning from the cotton States, take a personal interest, in the matter. Mr. W. S. Reynolds of Norfolk, the largest cotton buyer in the South, told me in 1882 that the cotton crop was now 7.200,000 bales sad must soon reach 10,000,000, and there must be found some new exit for the staple, and it makes no difference to the planters whether the goods come from New England or Old England; the profit to them is all the same.

It is with a certain feeling of regret that we point out these difficulties in the way of an otherwise feasible and well-considered scheme. We haste to disturb the rest of the pot-bellied representative Australian who breathes forth fire and denunciation over his peaceful victuals in the calm seclusion of a London club; we grieve to point out to the blatant newly-imported Briton | in our own land that England does not loom so large to the Australian eye as it once did; and we feel sorry to have to remind those politicians who drivel about bringing Australia to her knees by hampering her trade and systematically involving her in ruin that the same experi- ment was tried in America more than a bundred years ago, and that Gates seriously damaged the great political programme of that day when his backwoods militia took an entire British army captive at Saratoga, and Washington finally broke it up past redemp- tion by laying violent hands on another British army with a live lord in command at Yorktown. And we feel a certain measure of compunction when we point out that England is not what she was that her victories of olden days were won by the sturdy Scottish Highlanders who have since been 'driven into exile in Canada; by the fiery Irishmen whose country has been depopulated by famine and tyranny, and by the English peasantry who have been mostly, wiped out. to make room for ramshack e cotton-spinners- and asthmatic grinders of cutlery. The men who built up England's greatness are now pioneering in America and Australia, and the array of knock-kated invalids who in ter years have been licked in every quarter of the globe are not the men to force a new d sportsm on an angry continent at the bayonet's point. if Imperial Federation is to be established by dint of coercion and violence it must be supported by soldiers who wield the sword instead of the old cotton umbrells, by steel blades in place of fath and plaster, weapons run up by contract in cheap German forges, and by brains and military genius rather than by the inky maunderings of The Imperial Federation League, The aged Camp who waves ber teapot in the forefront of the army in times of peace is but a feeble instrument with which to reconstruct the el.pard regime of British absolutism, and when' the shrick of this hoary female becomes the guid. ing influence of Impérial politics it is a certain sign that the Empire is on the downward track.
IMPERIAL FEDERATION—AND AUSTRALIAN REVOLUTION.
Ever since the day when Decimus Tite Barnacle made his memorable coalition with Tudor Stiltstalking, and unhappily omitted to insert a clause providing that any editorial fellow who commented on anything should be sent to gaol without the option, the Conservatives of Great Britain have spent their time lamenting wasted opportunity that will never come back In point of coarse, idiotic bull-beadedness, the party has continued toʻmake steady and satis factory progess, its ignorance has kept well up to the mark, and there has been no conspicuous falling-off in its grovel and its infatuation, but its old time vigour has gode never to return, Except where it sticks unhappy natives with bayonets in India and clubs dissatisfied peasants in Ireland, it now finds expression chiefly in blasts of impotent printed wrath directed at everything newer and more intelligent than itself; like the toad which is resurrected after 10,000 years of slumber and darkness it brushes the earth out of its eyes with its: hind leg, and wants to know what has become of the grand old glacial period of the human thought, when anybody who was suspected of having revo lutionary ideas anywhere within 1000 miles of a royal palace was straightway shovelled into a | dungeon and left there to be forgotten; and when it is informed that this ancient mode of govern mentis dead and buried and stuffed and hung up to dry, it replies feebly that it can't be, for the world couldn't get along without it. The old British Conservative is practically incurable, and among British Convervatives the Imperial Federationist is the most incurable of all. Even-Sydney Bulletin, the story of Bunker's, Hill and Yorktown and Saratoga does not come within the range of his myopic mental vision, and in bis printed organ he is advocating to-day the same modes of gov. ernment-which Washington overset at the point of the American bayonet, and the attempt to enforce which brought Arnold thundering at the very gates of Quebec.
