MONDAY, the 3 th March, 1903, at II A.M., at their SALES ROOMS, No. 8, Des Voeux Road,

It is reported from Canton that Governor THE Undersigned have received instructions Wang Chilch'un, of Kwangsi, who was ro cently frustrated in his attempt to get to Kweilin, the capital of that province, and com. pelled to fall back again upon Nanningfu, has been so kamsted there and almost surrounded by the rebels that he has been forced to make a further retrogado movement in the "direction of Wuchou. In the meantime Governor Wang has been appealing for aid to his brother. Governors of Yunnan, Kweichou, Hunan, and Klangai, whose borders are near Kwangai pro- vince; but apparently, without much avail, for those officials themselves, fearing a near inva sion from Kwangsi, desire to keep all their Iroops with them.

The Sin Wan Pro is informed that people within and without the city of Nanning were forcibly captured last winter by rebels and kept for ransom. Although cries of help were raised by the victors they were of no avail as

the rebels had no fear whatever of the Govern. ment troops. This spring the rebols became much holder in consequence and openly write to the shops, guilds and their large business houses demanding contributions to their military funds ranging from Taels 400 to 700 in proportion to the l'usiness of the shops. Upon the receipt of these written demands, the merchants found themselves in dilemma as they dared not refuse or appeal to the authorities who would unreasonably punish them instead,

WHOSE FAULT IS IT? The world is full of disease and pain. Whose Cult is it? Everybody's therefore often the fault of the sufferers themselves. But the pressing question is--what to do, how to relieve, how to cure. What would become of us if means were not found to destroy disease? Why,n, of the course, disease would destroy us and the world would be de- populated. Until we learn how to prevent disease, we must be thankful for the means of abating and curing it after it has seized upon us, and stands, like a savage with uplifted axe, ready to take our lives. Especially do we need some sure and speedy from of treatment for those complaints which are universal,— which arise in every country and climate, and ravage poor humanity at all seasons of the year. We allude to such ailments as Nervous and General Debility, Hysteria, Scroful", Chronic Diarrhega. Asthma, Throat and Lung Complaints Blood Impurities, and the ills of women and children. For these

It is further stated that the Governor has applied to the French General at Liangskan (Annam) to assist him with his troops in the quelling of the Kwangsi Rebellion.

THE YANGTSE VICEROYS.

For the moment-let us hope, only for the moment-anti-British intrigue has triumphed in the Yangtse Valley, and the so-called Eng lish sphere becomes more nebulous than ever. Our loyal supporter, Chang Chih-tung, Vice- roy of Nanking, is removed from that high appointment, and unless the united remon strancea of Great Britain and Japan prevail at Peking, this great patriot and statesman will drift away into the unknown. When this news was first telegraphed from Shanghai, a little time back, it appeared incredible that our

That is one object of the degradation of Chang Chih-túng, the second being his punishment for refusing to carry out the anti- foreigner decree in the area under his juris. diction. The Empress has not forgive that act of disobedience, but the unfortunate Viceroy had a right to expect that even if the other- European Powers left him at the mercy of the Peking Court, England, at all events, would stand by him at any cost. That is not only an obligation of honour, but of self-interest; there will be a speedy end of our prostige throughout China if the statesman known to be friendly to England is betrayed by the very nation from which he is entitled to claim protection.
