Yangtze Port and Revenue,
The Chinese Maritime Oustome reports on the trade of the Yangtza ports, recently issued, show that in those centres of industry trade made wonderful strides during the last year, making a recovery from the effects of the previous revolution that talls of great vit ality. · Evidence of this is found." in the summaries of revenue. In Nanking the total collection for 1912 was Hk. Ta. 170,392, ex- ceeding that of the previous year by Tla; 50,000, and that of 1910 by over Tlo. 38,000. There was a substantiol gain ander all headings except in const trade duty, in which an insignifi cant decrease ocourted. The collections for the years from 1902 to 1008 exceeded the 1912 figures, but Mr. B. D. Tisdell, the sasistant-in-charge, remarks that it must be remembered thatopiam duties and opium likin figured ⠀ home largely in those totals, whereas in | 1912 no opiam duties of any kind

of Lords, Lord Curzon pointed out the unsatisfactory state of affairs produced in Persie by the disproportionate area of the neutral zone, and the whole course of events in that unhappy country clearly indicates the neosssity for are-arrangement of terms between Great Britain and Russia, Great Britain, too, is clearly entitled to some consideration from Russia for the moral support given her in her Mongolian advances, and the extension to Lhasa of out right station representatives at Yatung, Gartok and Gyangtes is certainly not more than an ade- quant quid pro quo for all that Bussia has gained at Urga. The Chinese Government is scarcely in a position to refuse so reasonable a requirement, the Tibetan Go vernment can be relied upon to ses in which way its own interest lies, and it would be a graceful concession on.
