AMOY NOTES.

(FROM OUR CORRESPONDENT.)

October 4th 1893. After having been threatened for the past four or five days with a repetition of last month's typhoon, the "cloud" has now fortunately cleared and we are apparently in for a spell of bright and bracing early Autumn weather. As soon as the tedications of an approaching typhoon were judged by the weather-wise to be aamistakeable, every precaution was taken against any recurrence of the damage done by our last unruly visitor; merchandise, as well as private effects (in the low-lying houses), were put sway for safety, but luckily our labours and Dar forethought were alike unnecessary. Reverting, however, to the destructive storm; of the fith ult. and to the permanent pre cautions taken by godown owners; It t rather striking fact that only one foreigner has had the common sense to have the Bloor of his buildings raised! The others, apparently, are content with the prospective protection that mud walls from two to two-and-a hall feet high grant them. It is to be hoped that they will never be put to a serious test.

The rate-payers of this municipality are to meet in the Amey Clab to-morrow to discess the question of raising the taxes on property from I per cent, which has hitherto been the rate, toi per cent per annam.
