MACÃO NOTES,

Maco, December 16th.. The Portaguese anikorities havleg come lo an agreement with the Chicers Government by which free importation of rice - from Chinese ports to Macao I sanctioned, this fiest staple of food is gradually being Imported. blber. Already' its arrival is being sensibly felt by averyono, as the prices are corres- pondkogly approaching the average that prevailed when rice was freely and unrestilctedly imparted 10. Macao.

The acarcity of this anticla of food, due to the prohibition on the part of the Chipone Govern, ment, wo actionaly threatening the welfare of this colony to populacs'y composed of Cainese, when the Governor, foreseeing the inevitable rexalt that would follow had nothing been done, acted wardly, with prudence and with the best of resalts.

Last Sunday was the date fixed for the per formance in aid of the Orphans and the Öld, under the charge of the moble and herole Carolin Sisters of Charity. The Com mice, compound of leading ladies of Macao, pider the presidency of Lady Galbardo, bad two weeks ago distribaled Ickets for this event, In which a great many ladies and gentlemen of Macso took part. The thestra was quite full, and I hear, on good authority, that there will be a good harvest of shekels,

I am glad to state that the Prays, which was so seriously damaged in the last typhoon, is now repaired

The Andrea has already arrived at Timor That colony is now beginning to proper ander the able admicistration of Colonel Da Sira.

I am told that two launches under the Paiguse flag a e golog to commence running between Macao and some of the Ports on the West River lalely opened to European steam traffic. Hay they PROSPET.

NOTES FROM THE NORTH.

(From our own Correspondant)

TIENTSIN, December 17th. The tiver has not relaxed its frigidity for an hour, and we sie inlily sealed up. Oh the cold It's not the cold frlende tall us that you can get op by Shanbalkwan; but its cold enough for most of ni, though it is a lovely crisp diy cald which has an elect flyleg effect apen one. Now, I am not joking or trying to pull the leg of Hong- kong readers who know nothing about cold, but there is a singular electricity in this diy nozihern atmosphere which is very trying to persons of a nervan temperament, and finds expression in a variety of ways. Ladier twisting thele bale are surprised to see it standing out almost at sight angles from the head, and it is said to crackle sharply agiast the biash with every movement. I can mytell vauch for an exceptional amoont of electricly in a cat which while basking in frant of a hot fire, was being stroked by its owner, whore 'o'ber hand, hrd "hold of the crex- ture's leg. and be was sorprlied at receiving several disinct galvanic 'shocks up the arm la question. You may athibale all this electrical zowance to the presence in Tientsin of Mr. Richards, but he has not impressed Tlenteln sufficiently favourably to have such an lofluence on saber thought. Thestsin hre voted Mr. or Prof." Richards one of nature's mistakes.

AT THE FALL OF THE LEAF.

Why do the lever fall? Bless me, I don't know," you answers "I supposa because it is one of naturala arrangementa,"

Precisely but why did nature to arrange? Why not have itmmer time always, with parpatus! follagot What is the meaning of denuded branches, withered dowen, daylight fading in mid-afternoon, and winter's cold and desolation? When you and out why the loaves fall you will have dhoovered one of nature's deepest secrets-why men

die.

Suppom we try an easley problem. Why should Mr. Willam Steel have written auch & stence a this P-At the fall of the leaf every year I got into such a date that I took no piensure in anything."

No doubt there are mind, so highly strung as to feel only the infantes of outward conditions, changes of the weather and of the seasons, and so on. But they are rare, and for practical purposes ought, to be raro. Our friend Mr. Steel, happily for hit, was not one of them. All the same he was a miserable man every time the leaves began to rattle to the ground,

they

Hem's the way he pute It At the fall of the leaf I felt languid, tired and weary, and took every year no plesaure in anything. My appetite poor, surl after averything I ate I had pain and fulness at the chart and idor. Then there was a horrible pain et the pit of stomach, which nothing reliaral?”

Now this sort of thing would spoil a man's pleasure any time of year, but the oddity in Mr. Stel csan la. that it always colnoided with what you may onl nature's bedtime.

After a few months," he says, the paid and diatre would be easier for a while, but de autumn' approached I became as bad as ever. In September, I had an unusually bad time of it. I couldn't touch a sorsol of food, and prosently got so weak I was unable to stand on my legs. Every few heure I had to be poulticed, the pain was so bad, I went to bad and stayed there fer a week, with a doctor Attending mo. Be rollered me a little, but somehow be didn't succeed in gelling to the bottom of my allment."

That may be, but it doem't quite follow that the doctor was in the dark se to Mr. Steel's allment. He might bare understood it right enough, yet failed to gure is because he had no remedy for is among bie drugs. That happens all the while. Still, the reader may sak, What's the good of knowing the nature of a complslut if we poismu no medicine to cure it Thers you hard a no use at all, to be
