A special Cabinet Council was held in London yesterday, Mr. Balfour speaking in the House of Commons said that he hoped to be able to siate the result of the negotiations on Monday next, but he could not be absolutely certain of being able to do so. In the meantime he considered it in | expedient to take the Budget.
Reuter understands that indications point to a peaceful issue of the negotiations if the Boers be allowed to retain their rifles, which they claim as necessary for their protection against natives and animals.

NOTES AND COMMENTS.
Changes.
There have been and are to be many changes in Hongkong in one way and an- other, and we do not remember any previous year in which the Colony has been robbed of so many prominent men. But it is not only by the departure of well known people that matters will be, and are being changed. There is shortly to be a general shifting of the cards and we shall have many alterations in the heads of depart ments during the year. The Hon. J. H. STEWART LOCKHART, after a very long period

"MANY VICTIMS IN HONGKONG Dr. Kitazate, of Japan, has declared that he fears funt cholera may become prevalent this year. He said that he learned that the d'seare. was cleiming many
victims in Hongkong at present, but that this fact was being kept secret. as its disclosure might have a serious influence on the commercial prospects of that port. He reminded the public that at this moment every possible case should be taken in Japan onre vent the incursion of the disease into this country. He considered it satisfactory, how ever, that there were good water works systems in Kobe, Osaka and Yokohama, where the spread of the disease was most feared. But he added that in the event of the distace peac

"There are other appointments that will shortly have to be considered though, and these are the appointments of representatives on the Council to fill the places of Messrs. T. H. WHITEHEAD and WE VUK. We have not heard as yet upon whom the mantle of the former is likely to fall, but we hear that in all probability Mr. Ho TUNG will fill the place of the latter. We trust that this will prove to be the case, for we forsee troublous times for the Government during the next year or two. Hongkong has got to be put in order, the old insanitary state of the place at her fore remedied, and a clean, sweep made of our disease-breeding slums. This, as we have before pointed out, is a colossal task, and must, of necessity cause a certain amount of inconvenience to our Chinese fellow colo- nists. Such being the case, it will be for better for the Government to have a Chinese representative on the Council who is well in touch with both parties that is to say with MR. E C. WILKS, of Messrs. E.
