We are very pleased to be able to record that the Postmaster General has withdrawn the charges made against a certain number of Chinese who were very foolishly and very hastily arrested yester- day for carrying unstamped Chinese letters Into and out of the Colorly. A large, doubt, a very profitable business has a thoroughly established, and we have no

Not less than six months notice, and that by Proclamation In the fullest and most formal manner, and which should be in Chinese, of any Intention to enforce the special provisions of the Post Office Ordinance, and they should not be enforced or proclaimed except as regards places between which we can guarantee a 'complete and effective service

delivery. We have a British Post Office In Shanghai, but is that Post Office in a position, on the receipt of a bag full of Chinese letters, to deliver them each one to its owner as would be done by, let us say, the English or Australian Post Offices. Until we can guarantee safe conveyance from place to place, and reasonably certain delivery to the addressee on arrival, we have no right to compell people to use our post office. Where we can efficiently perform the work there we may honestly enforce the law there and then, but not till then.

A certain of the government arsenals work them as any other commercial unders and dockyards were white slephants in the bands of the suitorities, who simply fattened on them, it was also suggested to hand these over to commercial an
