CANTON NOTES.

EXECUTIONS.

(From Our Own Correspondent.)

2

-- GANTON, January 9th. An unusual number of prisoners have been executed during the past ten days. The 'num. her cannot be much less than one hundred. It is said that for some time no sanction for the execution of criminals has been received from the North, hence the number of criminals under sentence has increased. A despatch-arrived confirming the sentence of a large number of “ prisoners and, as the prisons are full, the officials last po time in carrying the sentences into effect.

The last execution occurred a few days ago and a number of foreigners in Canton made a disgraceful exhibition of themselves. It is not sid how many attended the execution, but the number was not small, fe. of foreigners. It is also said that some whe call themselves ladies were present. However, it is the same old story; people away from home will do what they would be ashamed to do at home.

PROCLAMATION,

The Viceroy has issued with his commonda- tion the regulations for the guidance of mission- aries which were prepared some, time ago by the U.S. Consul. These proclamations are to be sent all over the province. I have not yet seen the copy in French which the Consul for France promised to issue. Perhaps it may come yet, but the French Consul seems to be ia no hurry about it.

ROBBERIES.

Robbery continues on the increase. Shops in the city are robbed every night. Outside of the North gate twenty-six houses were loot- ed a few nights hgo. As usual at this time of the year, the officials seem to stand asido and Allow the looters or robbers to have a free hand.

CONCERT. 1

The men from the U. S. Menadhech will give a Minstrel Concert in the Club Theatre on Saturday night in aid of the Canton Hospital.

OUR LONDON LETTER.

(From our Correspondent.)

LONDON, December 8th.

In a current review, there occurs

AN APPRECIATION OF LI HUNG Chang, by Mr. Boulger, which will no doubt surprise many good people in this country, who still resolutely hold by the idea that the veteran Indeed the statesman was our dearest friend. extraordinary inability of English people to realize how empletely, during the last few years, Li had become the tool of Russia, am. ounted to positive aberration of judgment and was largely responsible for the apathy of the Foreign Office, which is in the habit of taking

'ts cue from the attitude of the man-in-the- street.. Outside of diploinatic and Anglo- Chinese circles, I never met with a single individual who understood, or at least who admitted how entirely inimical to all things British was the later policy of Li Hung Chang.

On the other hand, I have often heard him described as," the only possible Chinaman," "the enlightened friend of Britain,""the states."

nan of progress."

Mr. Bouiger's article traces the life of 'Li rom the days of the Taiping rebellion through all the ups and downs of his chequered career to the hour of his death on the eve of signing the Russian treaty. Although many, if not all the incidents are familiar to China, folkji they have not before appeared in so concise and consecutive a form, and the article, which is nothing more than a simple piece of contem porary historical education, is very favourably criticised wherever "gone-home" Far-Eas

THE CHINA TEA TRADE to which I have referred more than once, 200.00 and which, if it is to be remedied at all must be taken in hand at once. After setting 350.00

forth the large increase in the shipments of Indian teas, and the improvement in that $80,066.88 respect of the Ceylon article, it was remarked that in point of quantity imported into Great 5672,64

Britain, Javan tea came third on the list, and the writer concluded, "China tea, never popular. in England, has still further declined in favour, till there is now very little demand for it 79,394.24 This statement is confirmed in tea circles, where however, I could not obtain an expert $80,066.88
