Just recently it appears the Governor-General of Canton roceived a dospatch from the worth, emanating apparently in tho firat instance from the President, in which the ques- tion of the queue is doalt with at much length. or course the. usual references to the cruelty of the Manchus in foreing tho Chiness to naume, the quono, 250 years ago, are givou and a list of those who suffered death rather than sublait, to wearing the appon lage is referred too also.

the Chineso now hold tho quoue to be a source of danger to health. On that account, therefore, it must go. It is now laid dow, in Poking. that within twenty daya, every
queno must be reinovod or sovero punishment will be moted out, though what the punishment would consist of is not stato t. In addition, it is pointed out that in some places whilst the queue has heen removed, the preference for aving the load still remains, after the fashion of the olden style. It is affirmed that this is not pleasing to the eye,.and therefore should be discontinued.

the inhabitants of the town of Victoria and its vicinity at niglit time, touches a question in which a large portion of the European community is deeply interested. Many readers, we are suro, will be grateful for the in- formation communicated to us by the management of tho Chinese Y. M. C. A. that they will do their best to mitigate the. nuoyance caused by the newly- formed brass band who are learn- ing to disperso Imrmony' but, if we inay venture to say so, appear a long way yet from re- cognising the distinction between harmony and the most horrible discord. Exilo to Lantao is not, however, deemed to be a practical suggestion, and it is hoped that, the distress of residents within' Grahat will bo minimised by the time for practice, being fixed a little earlier than at present. Our attention has bosn [44 called by one correspondent to this motorcar nuisance at night. He hopes that our comments many have the effect of putting a stop to the noise made by these ears which career through the streets of the colony, tooting their horns, usually until three or four o'clock in the morning,

Titanic Lessons. Readers will be interested' 10- day in the views obtained by our roporters regarding the Titanio disclosures and their prospective effects upon local shipping., Much talk has been indulged in during. Lhe past week as to the life-saving 6quipment of vessels trading to and from this port, and many will be gratified to learn that local shipping companies are ready to adopt whatever sugges- tions may be the outcome of the investigations now proceeding; though the vessels are concerned to only a small extent in com- parison with the greyhounds of the Atlantic and Pacific, The: Board of Trade regulations as they apply to Hongkong have been admirably reviewed. It seems that while American vessels plying to and froin Hongkong make the most ample provisions in ense of accident, vessels flying the British flag observe, to the letter the stupid rule of the Board of Trade which gaugesili of lifeboats to be ourr the number of people!
