appearances to the contrary, we shall continue to hope and to believe that before any consider- able number of foreigners are desirous of making regular trips from Ichang to Chungking, they will be able to view the magnificent scenery of the Yangtze gorges from the deck of a steamer and not be obliged to do so from that of a junk. That sizable downhill rivers are not confined to western China will be evident if we remind our renders that the central streams of the Fuklen province, the beautiful Min river, is navigable almost or quite to the frontiers of the province of Klangan, and that while the up trip occupies three weeks, the return journey to Foochow, whirling, if we recollect aright, past more than twenty assorted rapids, is made in four days! Some dangers there must assuredly be, to travellers upon the upper Min. It is well known that in the city of Canton,' the boat-people are a. special class, whore whole life from the cradle to grave is aquatic, riverine, fluvial, To some extent, there is n-population of this general des- cription in every great Chinese emporium situated

Vast as is the aggregation of Chi- nese craft at this great focal point of China, it is' said to have been incomparably greater half a century ago. A fierce fire once broke out in this wilderness of shipping, and inconceivable Loss of life and property was the result. This wholesale ruin, it is said, has never been repaired. To the other dangers of Chinese boat travel must be added, therefore, the risk of fre—a ter- rible enemy which even all our boasted civilisa- tion has been inefficient to muscle.
On the whole, as a result of this superficial survey of Chinese transportation, it is perhaps just to say that its dangers are very much greater than they at first sight appear; but that at the same time they are indefinitely less than a fuller acquaintance with the qualities of the animate and Inanimate agencies employed, might have led us to expect. The characteristics of Chinese travel which recent arrivals in this empire mainly emphasise, are the physical discomforts and the interminable delays. The
