This at first seeme a little Invidious as the whole stuff had to bear with scoff and insult during the week preceding the actual collision, and did so with creditable fortitude and restrained temper. However, if selection was Decanary, the right men have been rewarded, and it is gratifying to know that the Chinese boatmen were not overlooked.
