Until the Socialist millenium Arrivas, the personal element must always be reckoned with In mundane affaire, and possibly in no parti cular is it apt to fetrude itself more forcibly upoa public potice then in the administration of justice, Eren when one hard and fast codo la concerned, sufficient fatitude has to be allowed for varying degrees of the same kind of offence, and here the persoal equation on the Dench at once comes into play. In Great Britain we pride ourselves, and rightly, upon our pure and even-handed administration of Justice, and cases are admittedly rare in which it can be proved that le delivar, ing sentence a magistrate has been guided by any other consideration, than that of the dictates of Bis own conscience. Nevertheless a weekly paper has little difficulty in compiling its regular legal pillory, and we bad that the incidence of domicile frequently decides whe ther an individual shall be fined a few shillings

weeks for stealing an umbrella which had been for a brutal assault or be imprisoned for six placed against a fence, by the side of a road,

justice is necessarily complex, it must inevitably prove far more difficult to guard against

Steam Launches of Steel or Wood, Lighters, Steel Buildings and Roofs, Bridge In Shanghai, where the administration of Work, and all kinds of Machinery are made on the premises.

Tenders will be made up when required and the workmanship and material will be irregularities of this nature. But the necessity guaranteed.

The cost of Docking, and repair work, will be found to compare favourably with that should be a paramount consideration with those of any port in the world,

of securing as far as possible: consistency of practice, in the administration of justice

responsible, if only for the sake of inspiring confidence in foreign justice among the Chi: nere and of setting them a salutary example. The subject is one that might well be taken up by the Consular Body, as it concerns direct- ly the welfare of th whole community. It is subversive of all-good feeling among the com- ponent parts of this international settlement, thai dan nationality or another should be more teniently treated in its court of law than the rest. Latitude will always have.. to be left, an elsewhere, for the personal equation; but there is room for some degree of common action, especially in dealing with breaches of Muni. cipal regulations, and It rests with the Con sular Body to take the initiative in the matter. Possibly the most fruitful cause for complaint is the subject of the amount of the fine to be imposed for a contravention of the Municipal dog regulations. According to a Municipal by-law, drafted, with the object of eradicating rabies at a time when that disease was pre valent in and around the Sett'ement, any deg found by the Polles uamuzzled is impounded, and can only be redeemed upon payment of tas dollars or of the one 'imposed upon the owner by his Consular Court. In all cases where the owner is of British nationality the foe of ten dollars is enforced with OF without the Intervention of H M Police Court.
