His Honour: Let me see the note, Yes, there is nothing about interest here; I can only allow you what the note shows.

THE IMPERDR'S BIRTHDAY,

The anniversary of Emperor Kwang Hsu's birthday was loyally celebrated by the Chinese in Amoy. A most unusual sight met the gazet of foreigners here, when they saw on the morning of the 15th fast, all the Chinese shops

decorated with the imperial Dragon flag, and ieșioons of flowers and green stufis over the doorways. As a rule, the Chinese" don't go în for sporting their national flag en públic holi. days, and it was therefore a very interesting sight to see whole streets of shops with dragon 4g flying from the roofs of the various hongs. The usual precessions, Punch aud Judy shows, and open-air entertainments look place in various parts of the City of Kulangsu, and more greatly admired by large throngs of onlookers. At night there was a number Heatres, and a large number of houses, hongs, etc. were illuminated. The Tung Wê a institute

looked very well, illuminated by hundreds of lanterns and fairy lights.

Anuousual feature was the arrival of a number of flower boats from the Chio Be district, and as these bouts are very seldom seen in Amoy, they were a great attraction to some of the younger Chinese. The sleam-launches did a big day's work in bringing down hundreds of sightseers from the country and taking them. back again.
