The dish is really matic substances, such as bay, laurel, orange | stew, or a sort of a stew, but the freshnces of the leaf, peppers, chillies, and the
vegetables and the strength of the sauce served with it, makes it seem more like a salad. The chow-chop-say and chow-kat-ples of Canton are the two best illustrations of this class of delicacies.
The sauces, and condiments, that are used in Chinese cookery deserve a chapter by themselves. As was said, they use spices that we do not; such as siffion, turmeric, cassia bads, and ginger. They uso pepper, salt and mustard, (the last named usually cooked). They uno vinegar, and also lemon and lime juices freely. After drying the peel of these and strallar fruits, they use them as flavoring far more often than we do. They also extract the juices and oils of dozens of Rowers, such as the lily, the rose and the geranium, and use them for flavorings. These extracta, by the way, they make by using either' spirits or pure gin. And all condiments, as we the word, are applied to the kitchen; few if any on the table.
For some reason, variously explained by different theorists, the genius of Chinese cookery has been for thousands of years directed toward the preservation of foods for future use, Not only do they pickle and candy and smoke and desiccate meats, fish and vegetable muchas wedo, but they treat eggs, oysters, devil-fish, sex-weed, and shrimps in, similar ways, and it almost seems that they prefer their food in this form to the fresh articles. Mexts and poultry, however, unless they are preserved, are not kept after killing as we keep them. A chicken or a duck le cooked, almost as soon as killed, and many meals that are not eaten immediately after slaughtering are at once treated for preservation. In the Canton markets are preserved chickens, ducks, capons and geese,-alallar to the beef tobgues of England, the jerked beef of the prairies, and the goușe bruit of Germany.
Aside from these various food-articles, it la un questionably true that the Chinese eat many In place of our "castor" and salt-box, the things

No little interest was excited in commercial circles to-day by the announcement that the Canadian Pacific railroad had leased three steamers of the Guion line to ply between bere and Australian parts. The establishment of an Australian lise has long been masted, hence the story found ready credence, and the dispatch telling the story came from San Francisco and was very explicit, poing so far even us to name the ships. An interview with Canadian Pacific Superintendent H. Abbolt shows the story to have originated in the brain

A direct Australian service will be put on as soon as a fast Canadian Atlantic service is Inau gurated. In the meantime the Peninsular & Oriental Une is putting on a fast line between Australian ports and Hongkong (!) to connect with the Canadian Pacific Rellway Express line to Vancouver, so as to get a part of the patronage of the Britishers bound home from Australia. In relation to the statement that the Central Pacific railroad would run a special steamer between Vancouver and Australia ports during the Columbia exposition, Mr. Van Horne sald when here, that was altogether probable, and Mr. Brown to-day re-affirmed it.
Mr. George B. Dodwell, of Dodwell, Carlil and Co., who was in Victoris a short time ago, was interviewed in Seattle on Thursday, when he sald:...“ Our sleamers will stop at Seattle to dis- charge any freight for this port whenever they can do so without unduly delaying the overland freight. The Phra Nang brought about 3,000 toas, of which only hast sixty-five tons was for Seattle, and we could not stop for two or three days to sort out the Seattle freight. That would have been too great a delay. In view of the fact that the first consideration is to give patch to through freight. However, our boats will quick dia. stop here to discharge freight consigned to this port when there is enough ofit, and we can unload it In a few hours.
