SIR N.R. O CONOR AND the SHANGHAI CHAMBER
OF COMMERCE.
On the 14th Instant Sir Nicholas O'Conor, the retiring British Mials:er__to_China,_and Ambassador elect to St. Petersburg, received deputation from the Shang al Chamber of Commerce, with the object of discussing cartalo palate affecil British trade in Colon. The proceedlogs were, according to the China Gazetis, from which this report is condrared, of an Informal character, and took place to Mr. George Jamieson's room at the Britlab Consulate- General.
Mt. A. P. MacEwen, Chairman of the Cham- ber, after fairo lucing the deputation, addressed the Minister at considerable length, his address concluding with the remark-"Finally, I would mention the opening of the West River to foreign trade. We beard the other day scheme was being formulated for the opening of the city al Wuchou, which is a matter of very considerable importance, most of all to the colony of Hongkong."

(Sir Nicholas) mind, and if at home he could ever in any way assist in farthering the interests of foreign trade in China, by explaining the situation-perhaps in a more concrete manner, as * men who had lived here for three years, than an official who had never been in the country- he would not lose the opportunity of doing so He was very grateful to the deputation for this filendly conversation. It had been pleasure to receive them and it was a grief to say good. bye for the last time.
TRANSIT PASSES,
Sir Nicholas sald the subject was referred some time ago to Peking, bat in the note the matter way somewhat mlzed up, outward transit passes being confused with inward passes, and the matter never came on for serious discussion at the capital. It had, however, been before the Diplomatic Body, and the suggestions put forward seemed to be fairly reasonable, He recollected Mr. Dadgeon addressing him on the subject at Chefoo, and explaining it to him very folly, and he thought it was a matter which required serious attention. It did not matter to the Chinese much whether the Halkwan Total or the foreles Customs issued there passes and It was a matter for the Chinese Government to instruct the Inspector-General of Customs to arrange. He did not care to say very much, bat he had heard nothing that would show a want of disposition on the part of the Chinese to come to an understanding which would help trade. Cotton glowing be did not think It was practicable for him to say much about, because he had no doubt it was, one of the subjects that would be dealt with in the
Sir N. R. O'Conor, In replying, said he had to thank them very much for coming to see him that morning, and giving him as opportunity of a few minutes' friendly conversation on subjects of very deep interest to all engaged in commercial paraults to China. It was just about three years ago since be bad the pleasure of a similar con- versation regardlog very stallar ambjects. He was then comparatively new to the labours before him and the matters to be treated. They had been his constant companions ever since. It was unfortunate, he thought, that the deputation, a sense, were addressing a dying man. Three years ago he was more the Japanese being Interested in the question able to render them assistance than now when he was gang to another the interes! be bad taken to the questions was post, bat far too keen to die out in a week or two and he would have great pleasure to answering the questions, and giving what information he was able to on the subjects mentioned by Mr. MacEwen.

It was understood that if agreeable - Mi. Matthews would come out here and draw up a report on the barbour works, which he would take home,
and, in consultation with Sir Charles Hartley: would draw up a final report to submit to the Chamber, which he (he speaker) had very reason to think would be as good a decision to work on as could be obtained from any other direction. Of course it depended on the Chamber how far they went on with their original faten- tion. He thought that at the present moment the Chigrse Government more particularly at this moment—would be disinclined to epcomber themselves with any extra financial obligations on the score of the Woorong Dar, On the other hand they would be glad to allow free facies to improve the channel, providing foreige shipping bore the expense. He did not „think they would contribute to any larga extent “themselves at present ; they might have done so before the wit, but the Chinaman was a shrewd commercial individual and his ides was to avoid Info financial difficulties. He was afraid ofte ting into the Bankruptcy Court-although ke

Therefore, if the abippler could hear the expense, as it did in the case of the Danube, the government would glee their assent. As regarded the massuren to be taken for the preservation and conservation of the Woung Bar when the works were com pleted, they would lok at it probably very much the same way. It would not detract from the soverelyn power, but there would, as on the Danube, be a Board of Conservators, who would attend to measures necessary for the per- servation and conservation of the river. He was inclined to think that when the matter assumed a practical shape the Chinese Would look upon it in very much the same

Mr. Gribam remarked that if the land were simply purchased, under the Land Regulations the Council would have no power to tax or police it.
Sir Nicholas O'Conor agreed with Mr. Grabam, but repeated his opinion that it would be well for the Council to acquire the land in the direction in which they wished to extend before pressing for an extensies. He entirely agreed that the Settlement was at present a great deal too Umhed, and it would become much more so when the manufactures and Industries got late fail swing, If Shanghai grew at anything like
