And the reason assigned was that if the lost draft fell into the hands of a Munan soldier he would demand the sum at the point of the word! At the yamên, ou. the bank maneger stating the case, the secretary with whom we were speaking ejaculated 'Ab! of course fa.Hunan soldier found that draft he would draw his sword to enforce payment. The record once made, however, the money was promptly handed over.
Coint Szechenyl, with his credentials in proper order and with a primit from the Tsung- | Yamen, reached Suchou on the west border of Kansu, when Tso Tsung-tang held his viceregal court there immediately after the suppression of the Mahommedin rebellion. He wished to pass on to India and informed the Governor-General that he had authority from Peking for the journey. A said the old Hunan warrior, rule out here! And the journey has not not yet been accomplished.

When the Yellow River breach was being repaired two steamers went up as far Chouchin- kou with tram rails and other plant. Apparently there is nothing to hinder the repetition of these journeys by ships of good draught, to Chouchia- kon in the summer time and to Changyangkuan all the year round. The influence of a steam service upon the trade of these populous bod accessible districts would be great. There are no rapids, even at low water, on the Huai, and. the sail of the country through which it flows is light and sandy, hence, its navigation is not confronted by such difficulties as that of the Upper Han et Upper Yangtze.-N.

Travelling far inland is quite another thing to travelling near the coast, in the car alaria the Spechow Creek for example, and nowhere is there a greater difference than in the attitude port secures respect and opens night barriers. Not so inland. There it is demanded examined, and frequently or pied out infil. To a Hunan official, or indeed to any diffcial, a foreigner is a very contemptible penonage, neither to be con- sidered nor obliged, but to be made to feel that he is at best but an inferior devil And the traveller is powerless. He arrives at a barrier, it is three pm, and the customs flag has just fallen; work is over for the day. There remain three hours of daylight, his men are still fresh and wishful to go. He will ask permission to push on. So he climbs up to the office, on the top of a perpendicular cliff fully fifty feet high. He reaches the place breathless, accompanied by bia captain. "The case is explained. Oh, yes, you may go, then to the captain, pay the fee' (a matter of one penny sterliny). So we return to our boat together, the captain collects his cash and climbs the rack again In a few minutes he returns looking downcast. 'Come hurry up, let us be off. But no. They have changed their minds, they must examine the boat to-morrow. Not this evening? No. Well, I'll go up again myself and try. No, not this evening-it' dark. But, gasps the victim, the boat is empty and we have passed so many customs already. No, you can't go,' snaris a clerk, you may have seciet goods on board for aughs we know. You can't go. What's your hurry? You foreigners haven't got any public business. Go sad bring your passport, Alas! the foreigner's temper goes, and he utters a forceful refusal. Now when temper goes everything is lost. I'll go without permission then, Oh, very good, go, we'll soon catch you up; we won't search you we'll deal with the captain. The poor, wretch shivers as he hears the words and the foreigner
feels that the near future contains a meal of humble pic. Next day he leaves at noon, a sadder and a wisèr inan
But to get back to our journey. Another day or two brings us to Linhuaikuan, the customs barrier for Fengyangu.. Next morning we wake to find ourselves rushing along before a stiff breeze from the N. E. It keeps up and when night falls we are still flying before it. There is. no necessity to tie up for the night; the moon is full and bright. The breeze stays with us for thirty-six hours and, last we drop anchor in the mouth of the River Ying, One-fifth of the journey in thirty-six hours-the other four-fifths Took forly days!
But we must stop at Palitowtse for across the river there, as at Linkuaikuar, in a chain of boats flanked by a customs' hulk, only to be passed in daylight and after our boat has been examined.
The river Ying empties itself into the Huai a couple of cast of Chengyangkus, the largest place since Yangchou and the great port of northern Anhui At its mouth is the last of the salt barriers, and here an incident occurred which may be worth relating on account of the light it throws on the circumstances of the foreigner travelling unofficially in China. The wind had not fallen, though it had lessened as we entered the Ying. The moon was full, so our boat was easily perceived and instantly bailed to stop. We were below just finishing rupper, and so unaware of our exact whereabouts; an occa- sional sentence reached us, however, but as there was an office on either side of the river it was a little difficult to follow the conversation, shouted to and fro, "Stop, lower your sail", was reiterated from both banks. But our sailors (the captain was in bed i) would not listen, replying that they and foreign passengers and did not carry salt. The vociferation increased as we moved slowly ahead, and just as the writer reached the deck a boatman bawled "well, he won't permit us to stop." This sup posed independence on the part of the foreigner not unreasonably incensed the officials, and we could see by the lights hurrying about on either side that chase was about to be made. A boat put out from ove bank and a number of men ran along the other Nothing intimidated, and In spite of our protestations, the boatmen still held on their way. At last in deference to as Increased vigour in our attitude the sail was lowered a couple of yards and ultimately al- together, the land and water chase being anished simultaneously as our boat turned into the bank. We were instantly boarded by a crowd of angry men, the justice of whose wrath could not be gain-said. They had had a long tramp and a Jong row to enforce obedience to the law. Our

A STAR! Few people know that Seoul has been enter- taining a therary lion, unawares for the past eighteen months in the person of Military Mac. E. Dye, who many years rigo thought fit to chronicle, in a volume under the thrilling title "Moslem Egypt and Christian Abyssinia his experiences of the Egyptian campaign against King John in 1876. If the distinguished author could only be persuaded to narrate hisexperiences while in business in Chicago and as a Pension RACING BOOTS, Office clerk in Washington, with his Korean impressions added in the form of an appendix, Azare treat would be in store 'for many people interested in this gentleman's chequered career, though the venture would not prove profitable from a financial or speculative point of view.
CAN IT BE TRUE.
It is rumoured that there has been quite a Cabinet revolution within the sacred precincts of the United States Legalion in the capital, the valuable services of Wo In Tak, for many years the official interpreter to the Legation atthe muni ficent sality of Sr.czo gold per annum, having been summarily dispensed with by Mr. Dins more. The reasons for such an abrupt change are not positively known, but it is believed that certain charges mysteriously whispered around Seoni last Spring and Autumn, by a certain German-American-Japanese captain in the Korean army, concerning financial irregularities between the Minister and his native subordinate, have something to do with the event. Itisreported that Mr. Hong-U-Kuas, formerly Secretary of the Korean Legation in Tokio, replaces Mr. Wo in the U. S. service. This is a trifle hard on We, but possibly his reputation will not suffer from the sudden action of his superior. It may be that We is the party who first spread the repati about his chief canvassing for the post of Adviser to his Korean Majesty, and if so his dismissal is no doubt fully justified.
