London, before the Foreign and Colonial Section of the Society of Arts, on "The Progress of the Bitish Colonial Empire during the past Sixty Year of her Majesty's Reign." Daring the progress of the lecture Sir Charles poloted out that Ceylon had by her enterpelan almost diplaced Chian tea the British market, her export in 1795 being over 100,000,000-ih, weight, Referring to Hongkong, the lecturer remarked that although since the beginning of the reign Hongkong had come into existence, and had to some extent isken the place of Singapore as an emporium of China trade, yet the transit trade of Singapore had enormously increased even la recent years, and reached in 1894 $100,000,000, Hongkong might in some respects be regarded as having bad, commercially speaking, the most florishing history of any settlement to the world. It was a port and nothing else, with an annual trade of about £50,000,000, and was also the principal coaling talion of the British Fleet in the North-west Paclic. In seconding w motion for a vale of thanks, the Earl of Jersey thought, the granting of self-government to (late Governor of New South Wales) sald that be

CHESS MATCHES.
AN IMPORTANT SUGGESTION. TO THE OF var “Hamerond Tecadrare," _50-The chers_match(* Portugal v, The World" resulted in an eaty victory for the representatives of Portugal by to games out of
14. I anticipated that suck would be the result after comparing the "pabings of the players in iba contest.
The arrangement of the match was not, to my mlad, such as to lalily and properly test the skill of the players of both parties, as many of the strongest players of one side were drawn to play against the weaker players of the other. Of course, the luck of the drawings la the same for both sides, but in a match of this descriptibe, better and fairer to all interested in the game i and in fact in any matcher, I think it would be the strongest players of one aldo were paired with the strongest players of the other. Were this tried we should have better games and at strength of the opposing parties, which the the same time the result would'show the trac
present system, I am convinced, cannot do.
·May I suggest, through the medium of your valuable paper, to the Committee of the Chess Club the adeliability of having a return match played on the lines above surgeated.
Yours faithfully,
