The Japanese Ambassador.

London, 27th February. Viscount Hayashi yesterday presented his credentials.

He drove to the Palace with his suite in the Royal carriages, and was received with the greatest ceremony.

The Morocco Conference. M. Revoll has banded Herr von Radowitz a note, in which he declares that France considers her proposals in no wise assail commercial economic equality, and opines that the matter should be discussed by the

conference.

The Address to the Throne.. The House of Commons has adopted the address without a division.

The Transvaal Government. Lord Milner has warned the Government against an immediate granting of a respue. sible government in South Africa, especially to the Orange State, in view of the Boer irreconcilability.

The Chinose in the Transvaal. Lord Elgin has repudiated the word "slavery "in connection with the Chinese labourers in the Transvaal.

In regard to the new constitution, he says that the Government has followed the prin ciples which have resulted in a prosperous and loyal Canada.

The people are quiet and peaceable and there, has never been any uprising against a foreigner within the last 30 years. Notwithstanding the treatment received abroad by some of the Chinese, the people on a whole hava treated. missionaries with respect and courtesy, and hardly anything else could be expected; for i must be remembered that very many of these Chinese, whether Christians or not, have been ithfully taught the ten commandments by American, Canadian and Australian teachers who have lived out the golden rule before their pupils. The writer has alten been asked about the safety of travelling in this district, and he has universally replied that

A RAHWAY IN PROJECT,

The free fight, between two gangs of coolies employed by the Kowloon Wharf and Godown loon, yesterday afternoon; resulted in twelve of the belligerents being placed before Mr C. A. Melbourne, at the Magistracy this morning, to give an account of their behaviour on the peninsula. The combat is said to have been caused by a Pun-ti man and a native of Swatow, having had a quarrel, with the result that a clan-fight ensued, The Swatow men proved the stronger and drove the Can lonese off the street, although one watow man was put out of action with a bambon pole, The coolie who was rendered hors de combat appeared in Court with his head bandaged, and said that while he was at work in No. to go- down about ico men entered and attacked him, bu the denied starting the fight.

Americans may not have any control of the line proposed to be built, but the money-which has not been boy. cotted-has largely conse from America. It is designed to commence building operations in the near future so that before many months or years we may hope to see a short line of rail- road in the very heart of China, all managed and built by the Chinese who have done yeoman service in that line in America. I am told that the directors have not boycotted Ame rican steel rails, so that Carnegie and other steel magnates may reap some benefit even if the flour mills of California have to shut down on account of the boycolt against American flour.

The accession of King Hakon and Queen Maude to the Throne of Norway is briefly recorded.

Reference is also made to the appointment of Reform Commissioners for the island of

"This may delay'the elections in the Colony for a few months, beyond July.

"In the meantime, no further licences for the importation of Chinese labour into South Africa

will be lasued.

"Responsible government will also be grant- ed to the Orange River Colony,

My earnest hope is that the grant of the institutions to these Colonies will be followed by an increase of their prosperity and a feeling of greater loyalty among the Colonists towards the Empire.,

A PEACEABLE DISTRICT, The district on the whole is peaceable and no foreigner has ever had to flee for his life. Mobs have atacked and pillaged a few Protestant chapels, but as a rule there have been fewer of these 'wanton outbreaks than in some other places. In 1500 in the general destruction or pillaging of chapels only a few were destroyed, and mission work has been carried on quite successfully over the entire district where there are several fine churches or chapels built after American models. It is needless to say that- | Chinesa American money also helped to erect these. One such was dedicated Feb. 1, 1906, when, more than yoo or Boo Chinese were present, and strange to say though the steeple of the church is higher than any other building
