THE value of Chinese official reports to the Throne, says the Shanghai Mercury, may be estimated from the following, which we translate from the Pebing Gasarts of the azad Jane: "The Governor of Anhwel, Shen Ling-cheng reports having resumed his governorship again, after handlag over the office as Governor General, which he had been" depated to All; to the newly appointed Viceroy.

They were discovered on the Sunday morning, and when the steamer arrived captain communicated with the British and Japanese Conguis, and the latter arrested the three men and found quarters for the women. They are all to be sent back to Japan. WITH regard to the reward for the arrest of Lieut.

He is taking service somewhere in the Straite, we understand. His record is a fairly laborious one; he has done yeoman service in several dampaigns, and be teems to have taken an honorable course in looking after his own interests..

The Mercury is unable to give a report of the proceedings, which, were con- tinued next day, because the case had not regularly come into Court yet, and the examina- lon was taking place simply to allow Mr. Smith, (who, we are sorry to say, is in anything but robust health), to leave Shanghai as soon as possible.

In the Hongkong police are some men who came out several years ago, and some who came last year. The older men's agreements were for $45 per month, with a cents per day deducted to hospital more than 30 days in a year. The last arrivals agreed to serva for $50, with the same condition as to hospital pay. This increase was granted because, as Hongkong became known to the people at home, nobody could be got to serve on the old terms. Then the pay of Mill was equalised, by permission of the Secretary of State, the new men keeping there Be agreement and the old men receiving an increase. But the Governor, by the same, authority made it a condition that the men who received the Increase thónid ́also suffer an increase in the hospital deduction-half pay, Instead of 21 cents per day.
