Sir Henry Blake, from his official connection with both Colonies, can speak with authority, and his views have doubtless areasted the attention and commanded the respect they deserve. Hongkong, as Sir Henry points out, is at present suffering from acute commercial depression, and be apprehends that the pro posed suppression of the opium traffic will to sult in a loss of revenue which cannot but cripple the Colony. He foresees also an sion of the law by opium smokers, who, once the public "divans" or smoking saloons are abolished, will resort to private deos, of which thera a'e many thousands in the Chinese quar- ters of the City.

With regard to Ceylon, Sir Henry effectual ly destroys the exaggerated picture drawn by local faddists of the extent to which the opum habit has grown bess. "Opium smoking is practically unknown" (in Ceylon) says Sir Henry, Opium-nating is common, the drug being used as a' prophylactic again st malaria *

"but, save in circum- scribed district, there were no injurious "effects apparent from the use of opium.." The

hospital returns showed that in the sixiy-4 P.M., will be subject to rent.pow four hospitals of the Island, there were, within the past three years, but two or three cases treated of complaints due to the use of opium.

No claims will be admitted after the goods gerated by faddins and alaimisis and Sir Henry Blake's letter amply confirmy the view wa’have always had. Moreover, it would seem to be the general view among those who are not. violently "anti-opium?” that the use of -the- drug is by no means so loļuridus loAsiatic“ -countries ka the use of alcoholi". The former;js -used-that latter is positively abused, and pro- duces far more deleterious effects. Sir Henry Blake, it will be noted, shares this view. – “Ho' bac, of course, suon for kimsall the mischief wrought among native races by alcohol. This. is what he lays in concluding, his very lucid loster Should the effect on the instructions issued toʻthe Crown Colonies be to change the|nection with Above Steamer que hareby stimulant (com opium to alcohol, the result will be disastrous Sir Henry Blake's letter throw such a flood of light on this question and puls the whole matter so clearly, that we are inclin- ed to regaid it as one of the most valuable con- tributions to the volumfocus Hierature on the mych vexed question.
