We learn that a fow country teamen are con- sulting as to the hest means of establishing a tea warehouse at Foochew, in order to enable | them to sell tea direct to foreigners. We sincerely hope they will succeed as a change from the present system is much needed, but we fear the Cantonese have too firm a hold on the trade.

We are very gind indeed to observe that the price of rice has been greatly lowered since our last issue, and it can now be bought at fully seventy.cents cheaper per pical. Large ship ments from different ports in the nolth and south have arrived, and the authorities sisa sent orders for a considerable amount which is hourly expected. The poorer classes will undoubtedly be greatly relieved.

people. Engineers in Americs, with the alacrity of their nation, realized at once the advantages of the system, and they designed and bullt in the following year a steel cantilever bridge on the Canadian Pacific Railway, and they have. since followed that up with more than half a dozen other bridges of the same type. This is a true test of success. In all, the ca es the con- tractors for these bridges have been well satisfied with the economy and speed of the operations, and with the stability of the struc'ure. One of the most interesting is a cantilever bridge of steel and iron over the Niagara river, a short distance below the great falls. There are two is 470 feet. As the piers do not extend above cantilevers founded on either bank, and the span the rail level, the tension principle is not a plainly developed as in the Forth Bridge, and the land-ends of the cantilevers have each to be held down by an anchorage pier of masonry, weighing over 800 tons. In the Forth greater, the weights beirg, 30 as against Bridge, though the size and weight are so much 20,000 tons, the anchorages are only 1,00 tons. This Niagara viaduct was completed in 1884. Further advance in the way ofcintilever bridges has by no means been stayed. Though at present the Forth Bridge stands at the top of the list of such structures, it may sonn be displaced. head of everything in the universe. Last year a charter was granted for bridge with a pan of 3,800 feet at New York, and Mr. Lindenthal, the engineer, has applied for the. assistance of Mr. Baker in the matter.

From a felinble source we learn that the oplum dealers at Shahw, who generally bay yearly some five to six hundred chests of opium from the foreigs hongs have entirely ceased doing so lately on account of the cost being too high to compete with the native article. We have been further informed that a Canton man at that place authorities to farm the duty on all native drug at the astonishingly low. price of 180 taels "per annum. This is certainly a much WOTRA case than the struggle between China and Indian tea,

and we have been assured positively that the impost of opium this year will show a decrease of as much as two thousand chests of all qualities at this port. It must decrease more every year if the native. grown opium is not equally taxed, or at least to the extent of half of what Indian opium has to bear. The Chinese Government will certainly be the laser if the Indian opium.be entirely driven out of China, which scemavery likely to be the case, In our opinion nothing will prevent this happening as the natives bave now become accustomed to make their own opium, on ac count of its cheanness.--Echo.
