Mr. A. Michie gives in the February number al Blackwood one of the interesting articles on Chinese matters that we auscefate with his name.

Mr. Smollett Campbell (Commissioner} remarked that it would be better to do ane thing well than several things badly. There would then be some chance of achieving something that would really commemorate the sixtieth year of Her Majesty's regin. An Anglo- Chiness school had been proposed. The Amoy communlly was not a large one, and he thought that all the fanda that would be collected would be required for this,
Some discassion ensued, afterwards, and i resulted in Mr. Brace proposing "That the efforts of the British community at Amoy towards com memorating the Diamond Jubilea should be concentrated upon the effort to establish an Anglo Chinese school,"
This was seconded by Mr. Campbell and carried unkalmonsly. -
The fallowing gentlemen were then proposed as a provisional Commlifes to enquire as to the best mode of establishing a school for teaching Togitab at Amoy, and as to whether sufficient
