We have been slow to offer our mite to the general treasury of criticism which the appearance of a new (in both souses) Chinowo newspaper has evokel. They for whom this fresh journalistic Chamber of Commerce. vonture ostensibly eaters-that is to say the quasi-Europeanised und English-speaking Chinese-are far better qualified than we to decido whether need existed for such a paper as the "China Republic" or not; and it is for then, tan, to say whether or no our new-born contem- porary is calculated to supply that particular need. The most, then, that a paper confessedly devoted to British Colonial interests could do, at starting, by a now brothor with a totally different policy, was to wish him good luck and a speedy and happy issue out of the school of hurdship and drawback which must be the lot of every fresh-comor into the world of newspapers.
