Egypt's Loyalty.

The unanimous condemnation by the Egyptian Ulema of Tur- key's zoticn in listening to the promptinge of Germany and thus becoming embroiled in the Euro, Fean war has been received with no small feeling of relief by those who were doubtful of the resulta of the British policy in Egypt, for it has been frequently pointed ont that danger was imminent from the milk and water" Tactics adopted by the Liberal Govern ment. For years we have been necustomed to herttal Egyptian aspirations towards autonomy were being realised and more dan gue writer has raised his described as "the ineficiency of the reministration." Egyptian rolitica bave always received more thin their share of rttention, but, un rtunately, the English Press in this regard as in many others bas shown a lack of gisep of the Oriental mind and chargoter which bas detracted from the weight of its influence.

Chinese Lotteries. With the object of promoting thrift among the Chinese people, so the official announcement rang, the new Sin Bua Sayings Enak, which is in the nature of a na t'onal institution, bas obtained the remission of the Govern ment to issueone millica Premium Bonds of ten dollars each. There ere to be aprual drawings for ¡rizer, and “if a rumber fails three times to secure a prize, the original capital shall be refunded in the fourth month of the seventh year of the Republic." The Government, the:fficial advertise ment states, will guarantee the payment of the prizes and the repayment of the original capital, Apparently the new enterprise has been condemned as a new form of lottery for China: We ourselves have declined the Savings Book'e advertisements on that ground, because to publish them in this Colony is contrary to law. The Head Office of the Sin Bus Savings Bank has issued a lengthy explaration combatting this view of ita Deposit Receipts cr Premium Benda." It is first of all stated that the issue of there Bonde has not been prompted by auy motive of gain, but rather with the sole idea of encouraging habits of thrift among the people and improving the financial con dition of the country.

To this our contemporary replies in the effitmative, adding the follow- ing: Without presuming to hazard the opinion that if besides divine people's thoughts, we may the political motives, Great Brit ain entertained an economical one for taking part in the present conflagration, this was precisely the hope net so much to destroy her best customer as, in some menaure, to take the breath away from the most troublesome of her competitora.
