Sixty Pours Hgo

From tur "Nowr#-Cumta Dany or May 29, 1874.

"He Is a young men, a Kuge, Jand much in favour with the Emperor but as for his particular Atness for the service on which he is to go, little can bbe said. "AS the troops have not gone Jdireet to Formosa, and are pot acting Jottensively, but the proper officers are communicating with the chinese authorities, it ts highly probable. that fo. hostilities will actually break out between China and Japan." This refers we presume, to the ships having touched at" Amoy" and" met with (elendiy aid at that port.

On Sunday morning Saigo, the chiot of the expedition, embarked ut the Onato and thence proceeded on board the str. Delta, receiving salute which was fired by the government Dattery on shore, and before noon the vessel was on her voyage to Formosa To achieve the success self-evident, however, time and labour Unstinted have been spent upon land that in 1919 was reported to the Council as "too low laid, and the majority of trees either fail or make unhealthy growth." A visit to the present-day nursery is sufficient to instil faith in the men who steer the course of the Park department through the difficulties of plant-culture and future planning.
