Such Europeans as possess an intimate knowledge of the soul of the Japanese pro- ple, a just appreciation of which is to be gained only by a careful study of their his try and characteristics, or by a prolonged residence in their country, must be sadly disappointed at the flagrant inexactitudes contained in the descriptions supplied to Western journals by special representatives, sent out to chronicle the phases of the pre- sent struggle.

Within five years the new system to be intro- duced at all the Treaty ports, and as far as pos. sible elsewhere, and all customs duties to be collected in the terms of the new currency.

The company's shareholders to a great extent have been very slow, however, in coming forward to collect the amount due to them. Notwith-

standing the greatest efforts made to induce shareholders to come forward, there still remains unclined the amount of $810 as first repay. ment of capital on to8 shares, and $353' as second repayment of capital on 132 shares. Owing to the great lapse of time this total of $1,173 should now be disposed of

CANTON NOTES,

THE SHANG TSOI FESTIVAL (From Our Own Correspondini.).

Canton, March ple Hundreds of boats and launches and thou- sands of people have been leaving Canton, during the past few days for Kun Tsim in the Nam koi district. There are some temples at the foot of a hill in that neighborhood and the festival is in connection with these temples. Shang Tsoi means "fresh vegetable, and the festival consists in eating this fresh vegetable, which, in this instance, is largely grass, The people walk about eating grass like animals; of a lower order. It is believed, by how many I cannot tell, that during this festival the grass about these temples has a peculiar vistue and that to those who eat male offspring will surely be granted. A large number are trying the experiment whatever they may believe regard- ing the efficacy of the grass.
