IT may be taken for granted that, notwith- standing all Rossea's undertakings, Manchuria is lost to China. Mongolia will follow, and China's Central Asian possessions. Then England will have to show much more deter mination than she has done in the case of Manchuria, if Tibet is not to became a fussian province, observes the N. C. D. News. The Chinese Empire will be confined to the eighteen provinces, and even they are seriously threatened by the Manchurian precedeni.

there are very few steamers inading for the

As there is said to be no commercial scope for their employment, it was supposed that they are intended to control the river traffic, the possi bilities afforded for additional taxation of the bean boats, being another burden on the trade of Newchwang, which is already in a bad way owing to the prevalent uncertainty.

and Chang Chi-tong is busy trying to dodgo promotion to the Wei Wu-pu or some other responsible post where he can be made scape- goat for anything which happens. It would be convenient to have Chang take over the Rus- sian problem and solve it or be dissolved by it as fate might decree, but "a certain Power” is said to have pointed out that inspite of Chang's increasing age, he is a man it is of the greatest importance to have on the Yangtze, and that certain Power objects to his having any such appointment thrust upon him. There, is more- cover, a certain financi il claim on his attention in Hupeh which he was unable to settle before coming North, and this Chang affirms impels him to return to his o'd post. However, it is in nu wise settled. Chang Chi-ung, who has received sundry and various marks of Imperial favour duting his sojourn in Peking, has been making and returning his official calls in a four wheeled foreign carriage in lieu of his official chair.
Locally matters remain the same. Nothing has been decided about the city finances and at a meeting between the leading commercial men the other day the Viceroy is sad to have declared it was useless to make him responsible for even millions as he does not command so much if any of the native banks foiled and he really had to meet suck a demand.

FROM the China Times of the auth uh. it is learned that the Empress Dowager had an entertainment of European music and dancing at the palace on the 28th. Sir Robert Hart's band furnished the music, with which her Majesty was very much delighted. The Misses Ya Kung, dressed as a French peasant boy and girl, danced a minuet, after which Lady Yu Kang with her daughters, a German lady, and four Chinese princesses, danced a set of lancers; all of which her Majesty evidently found very much more entertaining than dis- cussions of Russia's conquest of Manchuria.

Mr. John Roberts had a cordial reception from the subscribing members on Tuesday evening in the Tientsin Club, when he played an exhibition game of billiards of 1,cow points up with Dr. Irwin, conreding 659 points start to our worthy Doctor. The game opened in a ...$39,627.08 somewhat tame fashion, Roberts contenting himself with testing the table.

119 (compiled in & minutes) 58, and 34. One of these breaks was a specially fine one, as it was nearly all made up of nursery cannons. In the meantime, Dr. Irwin had been steadily augmenting his score and towards the latter end played a really fine game. During the evening his best breaks were 28, 20, 24, 19, 16, 14, 15, 13, 13, 12, 10, 9, 8, Xc., &c. The final stage was most exciting, as Dr. Irwin wanted 17 to go out and compiled 16 in capital style and then very nearly wound up proceedings
by fluking the coveted one. That, however, was his last opportunity, as the champion having
sending money to Peking to buy favour, as otherwise Tientsin ity certainly shoud be worth millions. But it seems hopeless to conjecture that Chinese officials are driving at first now, on where all the money is going to. A vast amount of money is certainly being drained out of the people somehow, qu'te inde- pendently of the indemnity, as for instance in Pacting. A proclamation has just been jointly issued by the Prefect, Magistrate and Chief of Police that the house and vehicle taxes must be paid up at once as there is no money to pay the military police who are protecting the people from robbery. Now these taxes were recently remitted and their reinforcement is not just. But that is the way matters are go- ng on and the ques ion is what is being done with the money. Some Chinese affirm it is being stored for future use and that within two years we shall se what is being done with it.
The Russians are trying to get together IC,000 rules, but though several foreigners: acting with Chinese are interested in the gi me there is some doubt whether the animals can be got away from here except overland, as there is some Customs' regulations against it.
Now that M. Lessar is back there can ba very little excuse not to settle the Manchurian question, but we may depend on it some wil be manufactured. The Russian Minister passed through bere very quietly apparently, but if he is still in weakly health as reported this is easily understood.
The German Ambassador, Dr. Mumm von Schwarzenstein, returned from Germany via Siberia on Thursday last, just 15 days from Moscow. He alighted at Tientsin only to receive the complimentary greeting, of his way. tionals, civil and military, and then went un to Peking. He was accompanied by von Rudowitz, the new Secretary of Legation, who takes the place of Dr. von Bohlen und Tabach going home on leave, and by Attaché Baron von Ro'enhum. The Austrian Minister was of the party also.
THE PLAGUE.
During the twenty-four hours ended at noun to-day 12 further cases of bubonic plague, making 1153 since January 1st, were re. ported. Of these 9 were fatal cases, all Chinese.

(No. 4 District), contributed the largest numb of cases, viz. 24, with seven deaths, while the Bowrington Districts with 23 cases, all of which terminated fatally. During the sme period a fatal Chincie case of diphtheria was galified and four cases of enteric fever were recorded, one of which ended fatally. Three Europeans and a Japanese were attacked.
