island first took possession of the North and East, crowding the aborigines into the mountains of the South West, where among the aboriginal dialects and language are distinguished King-lon-loi- spoken extensively in villages within a mile of the city of Klung-chaw-Lam-Ko-loi, Tam-chow- lol, Leng-sui-lo, Beh-ton-loi and several others. The Chinese dialect, used by the majority of the inhabitants, and the lingua franca of the island, is Hainanese. It is related to the dialects of the Fuhkien province, from which the original colonists came, the natives tell us, seven or eight generations ago. While this may be distinguished as the language of the island, nearly every other Chinese dialect has its representative. There is an extensive district settled by Hakkas, another by Mandarins, and a small district where Cantonese is spoken. Waile their languages are so numerous, their tongues are not abusive, 11. was refreshing to the writer on a recent journey from Canton to Hainan, after hearing abusive LADIES' AND CHILDREN'S language in nearly every city, market and vil lage, to be able to enter Klungehow city with- our hearing an offensive word, and to travel weeks in Hainan rarely hearing an abusive epithet. The people have been generally well disposed. The Renty and officials alone have. placed obstacles in the way of missionary work. The amount of medical work done in the island has conciliated all classes, and everywhere the missionary is greeted as tescher, and his medi. cines are sought after by men and women, for the wome are much more accessible than those of most parts of Chian,"

rewards for the officers who specially distin guished themselves in effecting their apprehen- sion. The coast of the Cantan province has, it is stated, been infested for many years past by bands of pirates who have formed themselves into powerful organizations and harass the country far and wide. The Chief of all these aociaties, whose number is considerably over a bundred, was a notorious pirate called Tseng-lu- yu-ch'in, whose depredations had long been the terror of the coast. Last year his principal. confederate, Tseng Ya-chich, fell into the hands of the authorities, whereupon he organized another band and continued as active in crime as before. When the present Viceroy entered upon office, he determined upon making a strenuous effort to suppress piracy within his jurisdiction, and entered into consultation with Fang Yao, the. Commander-in-chief, with a view to devising the best means for effecting his object. The latter ascertained that Ting- la-yu-ch'uan and his whole following had made their way furtively into the interior, and be de- cided upon despatching a strong force to attack them. After capturing twelve pirates the Im- perial troops came in sight of two pirate vessela ane of which carried the Chief Tseng-lu-yil- chan himself, A brisk fire was at once opened on both sides, and the pirate chief being wounded and closely pressed
was
obliged to take to the water and swim for his life. Finding escape hopeless, he stabbed himself, and was arrested in a dying condition. The vessels having been boarded, 17 foreign. guns and 23 charts containing the pirates' plane of campaign were amongst the contents of the plunder. Tseng's evidence was to the effect that as a boy he had joined the rebels in the Canton province, and had subsequently taken up piracy as a profession. For nearly a quarter of a century he claimed to have been the un- disputed leader of all the pirates in the Canton waters, and his yearly income, which, exclusive of disbursements, he estimated at several tens of thousands of taels, was shared in by the other members of the confederacy, He died before he could be sent to Canton, but his head was exposed to the public gaze, as were also those of twelve of his followers who shared his fate, Two other parties of troops which were sent by Admiral Fang to scour the neighbourhood succeeded in sapturing thirty-one pirates and three vessels. Several of the prisoners proved to be heads of pirate organizations which have been preying upon the country for years. Alto- gether, over forty pirates were brought to justice, and the Viceroy claims that no such success has been achieved by the preventive service in recent years. He cluses his memorial by submitting a list of officers for whom he solicits the bestowal of special rewards as a recognition of their ser- vices on this occasion.
HAINAN.
This island, although only some thirty hours steam distant from Hongkong, is almost unknown, except as regards its ports of Hollow and Pakbol. Three white men have crossed it - surveyor and a botanist being among them that has been learnt of the but about all a la contained in the following account by Mr. Frank P. Güman in this month's
Chinese Recorder :-
The island of Hainan lien at the extreme South of the Chinese empire, and makes up the prefer ture of Kiungchow, the largest prefecture in the Kwang-tung province. It is wholly within the tropics, belag South of 20 deg. N., though on Account of its insular condition its temperature is much more moderate than many other places in the same latiude, and the thermometer rarely indicates above 96 deg. F. during its longest heated term.
It is briefly described as 150 miles long from North to South, and 100 miles from East to West. Its area is about twice that of Palestine West of the Jordan.
י
Its surface is generally level in the North and West, and mountainous in the South and East. Its exports are chiefly betel nuts, eggs, leather, sugar and live hogs. In 1887 there were 85.000 hogs taken from the faland, and the deck, f nearly every steamer leaving for Hongkong covered two or three tiers deep with bamboo ⚫ baskets containing live pigs.
Any further discussion of the diversified character of its surface, climate, or productions, is not permitted by the limits of this paper. Its undeveloped and unexplored resources, con- sisting of fertile, unoccupied land, forests of valuable timber and mines of gold, silver and copper can only be mentioned.
