Professor J. E. Thorold Rogers, Professor of able to live in any clime, leads me to believe Political Economy, Oxford, is dead.

LISBON, October 14th. It is officially stated here that British gunboats have ascended the Zambesi notwithstanding the protest of the Portuguese authorities.

MELBOURNE, October 15th. Sir Henry Parkes, Premier of New South Wales, speaking in the Sydney Parliament, said

that the strike was as disastrous to the colony as

bombardment, and that the county would

steamship Friching, while bound out over Taku | CHINA COAST METEOROLOGICAL Bar, got on shore on the South Bank, nearly half-way between the Inner Busy and the Black Buoy. The wind was strong from the N.E. and the tide that day was 11 feet 6 in. Up to the present time she has not been got off, although every effort has been made to do so. Her cargo has been discharged, coal taken out, cable chains run out, and two tow-boats towing, but all no use. On the night of the zoth and morning of the arst the Company'asteamship Feima and tug Kai tal were towing at her, but no ure, as the water on the Bar was only 10 feet. She is not likely to get off until the spring tides. The steamship Farma will take on her cargo and passengers 10-day.

Mr. W. Grant, superintendent of the Imperial Naval Dock at Taku, has been sent to Port Arthur for the purpose of docking one of the men-of-war at the New Docks at that port.

This will be the first vessel to be docked in that place-Mercury:

HOW THE CHINAMAN WILL CONQUER.

The Bulletins publishes a long and interesting letter, from a half-Chinese gentleman fram which it makes the following excerptz :--

I take no notice of the fact that the usual d'signs- tions bestowed on Chinamen in your semi-serious paragraphe are "leper," "besthen," "Chow," etc. because, firstly, you write good and sensible leaders, and, secondly, the abuse any journal may hurl at the Chinese will affect their future just about as much as the barking of a dog at the moon influences a tidal wave. If I have.read the article in question aright, you assume the position to be this-That the Chinese are bound to mix with the other races of the earth; will the fusion be the result of a Chinese conquest of

a conquest of the Chinese, or will it be effected Hongkong Observatory, 1st November, 1890

gradually and peacefully? My opinion is that the inevitable fusion will be effected partly by a Chinese conquest, and in a greater degree peace- fully and quietly.

The Chinese have been, and are still, at the bottom, an essentially warlike and conquering people. The Idens entertained by Europeans 30 or 40 years ago that Chiness were useless.as soldiers have now been dissipated. Read any of the books bearing on and treating of the Tarping Rebellion, or the late Franco-Chinese war, and you will cease to doubt that Chinese soldiers are made of stern stuff. Gordon thought them and found them to be of first-class quality. And does not the fear-ever growing among European nations that the Chinese will yet enter on a career of conquest, spring from an Instinctive recognillon of their infalte military possibilities? How is it that Europeans never discuss the probability of the teeming millions of India conquering the world? The answer is that they know the majority of the natives of India are "not built that way,”: Nevertheless, I do not think that unless goaded by national

· Insults, or unless, to use M. Huch words, a "Tekengis or a Timout once more appears." the Chinese will ever enter on a career of worldwide conquest. Outlying and adjacent Asiatic races and countries they will probably rather inevitably aasimilate, conquer, and annex. The Malay Archipelago will almost certainly be theirs, nominally and virtually, But, further, in a mill- tary sense, I do not think they will go.

It is true of the Chinese "That the common sense of most holds a fretful realm in awe," The Chinese are, in their own way, a well- educated people, and read extensively. All their writings and philosophies, decry and denounce war at unnatural and undesirable, as well as mostly unnecessary. These arguments are specially applied to wars undertaken for purposes of conquest or to acquire military glory., These reasonings, operating for centuries, must have, and have had, considerable influence over an educated people like the Chinese. Therefore, all Chinese Governments for centuries past have adopted, in theory at least and very often in practice, the view of the national philosopher, Who declared that "the glory of the most #plendid victory Is but the light from a confia- gration."

It is nò use denying that Caucasian women are ready to mix with Chinamien. Although in the Australias Chinamen are not of the higher and more leisured classes of their race, and suffer under a kind of social ban, European women (perhaps from the curiosity' natural to the sex) in abundance mix and mate with Chinese.
