who are touring round the world, and whose "interesting articles-have -been appearing in your paper, have passed through this Bice and left two days ago by steamer for Bhamo, whence they' will begin their arduous journey through China to Shanghai. They rode from' Rangoon up here, a distance of 384 miles, mostly in-pouring and found it very uncomfortable. During. their stay here of about a week, they saw such of the sights as the ravages of fire have left to us, and appear to have been impressed with the novelty of the Ince. Mr. Foster' Fraser says that, with
four months, and no doubt you will have luck, they will get to Shanghai within plenty of. news of their approach.
They will certainly need all their patience on the: road: between Bhamo and Tali. After getting thro China, it is the intention of the travellers to cycle through Japan and then, asthe will be unable to cross "America: in the winter, they will turn their wheels southwards, and cross Australia "instead, as a diversion; after which their further movements are not yet made known.
