Mail advices which reached here to-day from Indo-China brought another and mo e revolting story of the doings of King *hanh. Thai of Aouam, showing that he went to the extent of cannibalism, Áfter killing one of his wives he caused the body to be cooked and marved for dinner, forcing his entourage to 'ont it under pain of death.
}
Some of the King's wives were bound and burned with burning oil and subjected to other cruelties, while naked women 'were thrown into The cages with the bearls, where they were levoured before the eyes of the King. Finally the French authorities stepped in and made a prisoner of Thanh-Thai, who has been adjudged insane by Dr. Dumas of the Franch Colonial Staf

The man who can do that will' Concerns. deserve the everlasting thanks of the share- holders in the Dock Co., and if Mr. Taylor is the man no one will be more randy than my. self to applaud his success.

Now, you may huffle the cards as much as you like, the fact remains that as far as the present shareholders' in the Dock Co. are con

We have had ample experience kɛ to the dangers of inflated capital and it remains now to examine closely as to whether this proposed capital of Tis. 7,140,000, or, if you prefer it, Tis. 4,140,0,0 and 10, 3,000,000. respectively, in workable and holds out any promise of a good. return.
