BURGUNDIES
Until a very few days ago, the constitution of the Committee of Reception was as much enveloped in secrecy as the plans of the most precious stronghold. That the field of selection of the members has been most, narrowly restricted, for no good rhyme.or reason, is most apparent, and that the un- representative character of the Committee has arisen, as a resulting consequence, is matter of public comment and general dis 19, QUEEN'S ROAD CENTRAL" satisfaction. Most worthy men have been
passed over and left in the cold; men, more over, who had adorned the boards of various committees on former occasions, and men whose rarik, standing, influence and educa- tion make them inferior to none of the few whom the gods have favoured. The preserve is a close one; the official element predominates on the Committee, and it is to be presumed that the officials will run the show" during the latter part of next week. And what about the unofficial members of the community-the merchants, the bankers ...and other eximable citizens of Hongkong, not of the charmed official circles? Will they be content to remain so many puppets to be made to bow and dance at the sweet will of the wire pullers of officialdom upon whom baronetcies, knighthoods, and 1.5.0.'s galore will be conferred at the termination of the Prince's Far Eastern tour? The inhabitants of "Hongkong-by which term is excluded the official element-were given a very prominent part and took a leading share of credit in the success which attend ed the visit of the Duke and Duchess of Connaught in April 18yo. On that occa sion the veteran Mr. Phineas Ryrie, of honoured memory, was the chairman of the Committee appointed to make arrangements for their Royal Highnessca reception, and upon him devolved the high honour and the pleasing duty of presenting the Address of welcome on behalf of the inhabitants of this Colony. That was as things should be. The late Mr. Ryrie took the first and fore- most position in all public matters and as the exponent of those," whose indomitable energy and perseverance" had made the Colony what it is, the selection of the
