Now that the lesson has been learnt and taken. to. heart, it is suggested by some of the Press that the Governor-General should be recalled. I should say that it was all the more necessary that he should stay. He is known to be 2 man of courge, common sense, and energy. Experience is of prime necessity but can only be obtained with. time. Let the Central. Government: keep "hands off" of the Governor-General and his reforms, the Chinese will, with time, absorb the new regulations and when they find that they are lasting and that not what ib "per regulations" to-day is against regale: tions to-morrow, all will be well and good in the island and reflect creditably on the Empire.
