A SAILING PASSAGE.

(By Commander B. Hamliton Currey, R.N.)

Through the packed and crowded waters of Hongkong Harbour the corvette takes her way, From her main-truck streams the "paying-off pendant," with its fathoms upon fathoms of lightest bunting and white tape, ended off by a gilded bladder which is chased by a couple of youthful Chinese rag muffins in a toy sampan, Loud thunder the guns of a Royal salute, fired from the bumboat man's junk as a final expres- sion of regret at the loss of such a paying customer:

The crews of the men-of-war, foreign as well as British,tum up from below and swarm into the riggleg of their vessels to cheer us as we go by, and even mercantile jack awakens somewhat from his usual indifferent attitude, and sends heany hurrabs from the forecastles of the clippers at we glide slowly

In the mornings the midshipmen squeezed their slim bodies past the great boss of the screw, hoisted as it was to an elevation level | with the deck, and descending the iron ladder in the screw aperture took luxurious sea baths, hanging on to the lowest rung as the ship went her good ten knots through the water. At nights, when the Southern Cross hung in the jewelled sky and constellations unknown in the northern hemisphere winked lazily from above, it was sweet to lie on the top gallant forecastle and smoke furtive and forbidden pipes, gazing up into the great arch of the foresail, and to hear the almost useless, jib flap heavily. No accident marred that perfect passage, no smell of oil and escaping steam assailed the nostrils; even dust became almost non-existent; drills were few, and one sai ed with a sense of end- less well-being. At last, and the anchor kisses coral at the Seychelles

Lovely as a dream, wicked as a bad woman, was Seychelles in those far-off days. Idyllic glades of palm-trees, watered by crystal streams, were filled with sailors' grg-shops, and worse. But it did not appeal to us, for we were bound for Portsmouth. Once again the Anchor came to the bows, and off to sea. I ut

Black and ugly came the clouds racing up from the Mozambique, and black and ugly, was the sea it raised. Dark, livid masses steep and foam-crested, tumbled menacing behind us, and, with streaming decks, groaning limbers, and one reef down in her topmails, the good ship staggered north- wards Ever and always it blew, hard and harder. The temperature went down to 68 degrees, and men whose blood was thin after three years in the tropics shivered in unfamiliar blue clothing.

It is just a year ago that you were informed of what plan the Directors had decided upon for adding to the Company's besthage accom. modation and relieving the strain and conges. tion which from time to time occurs, and its wharves waterside, warehouses, and generally for dealing more readily and saiisfactorily with the increasing demands of the port. This plan is for the extension of our east wharf, continuing as far as our boundaries permit, the present line of east wharf throughout the whole length of our boundary line fronting on the channel, orly leaving at the extreme east point an opening sufficient for navigat- back of that wharf. This back parlor inner ing vessels through it to a basin at the basin is being dredged to admit vessels there also, and part of the plan is a system of wharves that vessels can be accommodated and worked to le constructed within that inner basin, so

OPIUM TRADE OF BOMBAY

DECLINE IN EXPORT TO CHINA,

A resolution of the Government of Bombay on the report of the Administration of the

Opium Department of Bombay Presidency, for

the Revenue year 1901-1902 states

The decline in the the export of opium to China continued during the year. The reason assigned in paragraph to of the Commissioner's report is not clearly stated, and the subject ought to have been dealt with in greater detail in view of the large decrease of Imperial revenue. The effects of continued famine and scarcity on the whole trade are clearly reflected in the figures given in Appendices and 6 attached to the report. In every Kanara and in all the district of the Presidency proper except Native States there has been a more or less marked decline in sales. The districts of Karachi, Hydera- bad and Shikarpor in Sind alone show any considerable increase of consumption. In the districts in which the separate shop system was introduced the decrease in sales may have been. partly due to higher prices, as represented in ibe repent, but it was not mere marked in these districts than in others, and the decline in the amount of duty on rpium sold was counter- balanced by an increase in the amount paid for privilege of vend, the total revenue being greater than in 190-1901. Under the influence of competition prices will no doubt find their proper level. The number of cases tried under the Opium Act shows an increase especially in Khandesh where some large and important seizuresof opium were effected. The consump tion per head in the latter district is still very low and both in that district and in Gujarat the skill and energy of the Opium Preventive Establishment will be fully taxed.
