There were five open chaire borns upon gally decorated platforms. The platforms were covered with red cloth, the chairs with tiger- skins. The five principal officials were carried on these chairs, each borne upon the shoulders of eight men, enthroned like kings far above the heads of the people, and visible from all sides. Before och of the two chief examiners eight men carried censers burning lacenes,

A signal of two guns was given when the procession left the Prefect's yams, where sixteen prominent officials had been dised and densely packed and it wan dificult to move about, yet I have never seen a mora orderly crowd." The examiners were escorted by files of soldiers, bands of music and other companies of men and boys carrying banners, gilded poles, and red ambrellas. There was the usual want of meatness and order on the part of the escort which is so disappolating in all Chinese exhibitions, mad the narrowness of the stresis Interfered considerably with the impressiveness of the spectacle.
