Too much credit cannot be given to the Americans for their behaviour on and after the 13th.

There are between twenty and twenty-five thousand persons employed in the manipulation of the tobacco after it reaches Manila from the plantations. Of these shouers, Arthur T. Marvin, writing in the Overland monthly says:
By far the greater proportion of these are girls, ranging from ten years age to that indefinite period that follows twenty years. The chatting and bustling of four or five thousand women ought to be enough to set any man crazy, yet the taperintendent of the manufactories is a hale, hearty, and sensible fellow.

From information which has reached us from & most reliable source, Reater appears to have been all wrong in his recent telegram about the Hongkong and Shanghai Bank being put out of the field over the Newchwang Shanbal-kwan away loan, by China's acceding to the terms the proposed Russian loan, for at the present moment negotiations are still actively in pro- gress in Peking respecting the Hongkong and Shanghal Bank's loan.
