As usual. On Saturday, Oct. 31st, we published |a highly edliying translation from Saigon exchanges detailing the adventures of a French- man starting a new paper on outspoken_lines. Now, about a fortnight later, Granny wakes up a little, aces our paragraph, and reproduces it in a crippled, cramped, and only just recognisable form. How's this, Granny! Won't the Saigon paper exchange with you? Is it possible that ikey don't think it worth the price? Or can it be that your linguistic accomplishments don't go so far as an original translation? Orlait- really this seems most likely that you don't fancy departing from your old style of giving news the month after, so that it may be almost forgotten, and people think it is something else?

Hu might have added that the coasts of Hainan and the Gulf of, Tanquin have always been the head. quarters of these maranders. Since the French fook Ansam under their protection, the chief occupation of their troops has been to wage war of extermination against criminals of thla type, and they have by no means reached the end of their task as yet.' One/island in that gulf close to the mainland of the Lel-chou Peninsula, about halfway between Cape Caml and Parhol, and called Wel-chou, was at one time so infamous from the character of lis Inhabitants that the Emperor Kien Long punished it by what might be called disfranchisement, or cutlawry, if such word be applicable to the localities. He placed it under the ban of the Empire, withdrew the petty official who represented him there, and left the islanders severely alone. Of late years, however, with the general extinction of piracy, the island lost ita, bad reputation's, the pirate inhabitants gradually disappeared and their of Roman Catholic converts, under the supervision of a small society of French priests belonging to the Misiends frangeres.
