(Kobe Herald) The French in Kwangsi.

Peking, 28th May, The Governor of Yunnan and Quichow secretly wired to the Government that 1,500 French troops have arrived at Peliutan near Kaifa-fu. The Viceroys strongly remonstrated with the Franch Consul against the presence of the French in Yunnan; but the latter de clared he would not withdraw the men until the rioting was completely suppressed and the safety of French subjects assured. There are indications that more French troop are to criss the frontier. The Viceroy prayed the Government in take measures to prevent a French invasion.

Viceroy Chang has sent in a representation to Their Majesties against the presence of the French troops in Kwangsi and Yunnan,

JA Havas wire, dated from Paris, zid inst, reports that M.

This bears out our previous report regarding the situation in Yunnan Province, and the fact that the French workers on the railway line between the capital and Toaling had been called in owing to the unsettled state of the surrounding country.

In the Orika Meinichi we find a Peking dispatch which states that the French Minister has notified the Chinese Government that if the authorities fail to restore order in the Province in ten days-counted from the 25th ulio.-France will send her own troops to suppress the rioting.—En, II,K,7}

THE SILVER CORNER.

There is nothing singular, and at no time has there been anything impossible, about comering the silver product. It is as easy as the cornering of copper, and is subject to the

same vicissitudes. The silver corner, taking in the control of the entire product of Mexico, and assisted by that Government, is an estab It is lished fact.

thing of the tax may well be surprised by a communication on the subject recently made by one Ku Hing Meog, a graduate of Edinburgh and a man of original mind, who was appointed a few years ago by the Viceroy Chang Chih Tung to be his private secretary. In general, Ku's position is that likin injures trade, not by impeding the circulation of foreign good-the usual complaint, but by impoverishing the people and impairing their purchasing power. Ku is no believer in Sir Robert Hart or his system, and, in faci, accuses that systeur" of being realty the rosz of most of the evil, too rigid: Sir Robin Hart's men are "bills failed to do permanently has for the pre sent been accomplished by the Guggenheim syndicate, and silver has been forced up at a rapid rate. The rise effected by those two acts of the American Congress was a brief bull movement in the market, influenced by the purchases of the bullion by this Government." But it did not last, and under both laws the price took a downward turn, and fell steadily until the purchases ceased. Then it kept fall. ing until this comer has sent it upward again!

.The ability of the Guggenheims to maintain the advance will depend first upon the extent of their control of the product. · The first copper corner, known as the Societe des Metaux, took all the copper properties of the world which produced down to a minimum line, and made no account of the properties below that line. But the price was artificially forced up until it paid to work the properties below the minimum, and soon these properties bad as much copper on the market as the Societe, and the price

But it is not only Sir Robert Hart who is under attack. The foreigner generally, though possibly he may be surprised to hear it, is responsible for likin. In other treaties foreigners deprived China of her, tariff autonomy, and when China wanted money to put down the Taiping Rebellion, being unable to get

by increasing the tariff directly, she had to d so indirectly, by levying likia internally instead of at the ports. Then (Ku goes on in his fearless and original way) when the rebellion was over 1 kin remained; for foreig ners persuaded Li Hung Chang that he was the Bismarck of China, and that he must spend money an troops, ships, and armaments. But worse follows for Li, being puffed up by

Whether the Guggenheims have profited by this experience and have included in their scheme the silver production of Colorado, Nevada, Idaho and Montana is not plain. If they have their capacity to force the price will depend upon consumption of the pro- duct. The demand is in China. Japan and the Philippines, observes a San Francisco ex- change.

THE LASCAR,

The Colonial Office, with even the strongest statesman of the time at its head, has done

nothing till now to defend the rights of British Indian subjects in the British Colonies. Em boldend by its inaction, the Australian Colonies have gone a step further and warned the British Post Office and the shipping comp mies that they would not be a party in any mail-service agreement which did not undertake to employ

ply while sailors on the steamers engaged,

Will an extensive employment of foreigners on board the merchant ships add' to Englands s rength and be conducive to the safety of the Empire in the time of a great European war? It would have been some. thing if it were asked that the lascar should not find employment tilf all the available Brit- Ish sailors had been engaged.

TO-DAY'S INTELLIGENCE.

As formerly reputed in these columns. Messrs. Melchers & Co, the agents for a well-known German line of rive, steamers, made sirenuous efforts, from time to time, to secure the McBain boats, but always failed to attain this object. Their last attempt was made in the autumn of 1991. The price paid by the N. Y.

A yet, but little has been done in the Phlippines toward the development of its mining interests. It is a well-known fact that gold, copper and coal are to be found in all the principal islands of the archipelago, but the extent and richness of these minėtals are but little more than a matter of speculation at he present time. Far more than three centuries gold has been sent to Hongkong, Amoy ad Shanghai from Luzun, Cebu, Miniera and Mindanao.
