A force loft yesterday to proceed by Sea to'Shan Hui Khwan" farther up the gulf ot "Pi Chili" bat news has just arrived that an officer of British Navy and 12 men had already taken the place with bitter opposition. Shan Hai Khwan..is an important place, being the most Northern port in China which is open all winter and the terminus of the Manchurian Ily. and on the high road to Peking from the North. It is Very lucky we torstalled the, Russians in capturing it. It is also the head- tunrtersof a large force ot Imperial éliinem- Troops. Last week the 3rd Cavalry and "ll" Bull. B. H, made a rveonnoisanee to two large cities 30 miles from Tien Tsin and extracted large ransoms from them. We play polo both in Pek- ing and Tien Thin now, whilst mag- nitieent German bands play in the parks in‘the evening. - 7 7 - Last night we dined with the Ger- man Cavalry and right royally they entertained us. To-morrow I haye an invitation iodine with German Artil. Iory. A few days ago I dined with an Italian Regiment in "Mano" charming fellows they are too, A week ago the Germans and Rus- sians attacked the “Re Tang Fork" near "ToU"and a large number were blown up by mines. The British and Australians, who hurried down in lightens and boats, arrived just too late. lam saving all my pay and have already shipped home to India to Herb Sayer a large box full of intereat- ing and costly curios. I haven unn- tity of silver here now and 1 [large number of mules bought from the Rus- sians for a mere nothing, 50 cents in U. S. money. IfI can only sell them I shall get 850 each, and have sworn! hundred pounds to the good. Every day one has opportunities of getting more, but the trouble Is to carry it away. I haveseen thomost beauti- fal China vases. cups saucers etc. used for any old purpose or wantonly brok- em We dine often in palaeea,often sleep in mud, but daily lose fortunes by not being able to carry them away. - p While on the Lines of Communication I had an opportunity of cutting up a. few Boxers and obtalnled a. quantity of nties, spvnrs and swords. The count- ry from half wsy batsmen Tien Tsin to Peking is still infested by scattered bands of Boxers, robbers and Chinese troops. T hey are constantly cutting up single travellers and followers who stray a half mile or so from the Post. This makes it uecassary to have large numbers of men on the Linea of Com. munication to protect the mails and trattle. 30,0a) Germans are Blid to have landed whilst the Russians who had been leaving China for Port Arthur for the winter are now ordered to re- main in Tiun Tsin. Orders have been issued to all troops to prepare winter quarter so at pres- em there is a perpetual scramble for buildings of any kind. Tien Tain. The expedition starts tron Tien Tein and Peking simultaneously and will take six weeks. We expect definite orders hourly and startdey "erto-morrow. Do not expect any letters therefore for six weeks, bat du not be alarmed. Yesterday Iroturned from the lines of communication from near Peking with 45 uhoes to take part in a large expedition under Field Marshall Von Woldersee too "Pao Ting Fou" the capital of the Province of "Pe Chili” and formerly the eapital ot China, It inane of the oldest and richest cities in China and believed now to contain a large force of Boxers and Chinese Inn- perial Troops.

My Dear Mother and All..-- Replying to your inquiries as to my health would say that I am feeling very fit, in excellent health in fact. and as hard as nails. Have not been ill now for a year or so. Please tell mother notto worry an instant about my health, which is excellent. Our readers will peruse with great interest the following letter received from Lieut. Fred Hunter by his brother here, and kindly furnished for the Re- view at our request. The dash and the romance of this mixed up China affair just suits our young towns man, who is having a taste of the bitter and the sweet in connection with British mili, tary enterprise: Cutting up Boxes-Work of the A1- lies--. Opinions of the different Army Corps=Dinc in palaces, Sleep in mud-Valuable Curi- fllfl) Blifill ill CHINA A 1tturhmunss Letter. You asked me my opinion of the diii'erent army corps. Well, I consid- er the Japs Very fine little fellows, smart, brave and well handled. Ger- mans nre good, Russians dirty and cruel bat fairly good troops. Amr. trians, splendid. Italians good, offi- cers excellent. Americans, excellent, commissariat and trans rt men ; good physique; oftiettrs 'ld)'rl'J, inferior to Europeans in knowledge of war. dis- cipline fair, but fighting qualities excellent, although they are badly handled. Naturally the British are best but their tstaff officers are some- thing too bad for words, they are a disgrace. Australians very hardy, excellent material, have keen. bat uneducated offiemnx they are volun- teers purely. We have had several dust storms and beastly things they are indeed. Ihcpe you send me a military tur cap and fur gauntleu, black Fenian Lamb. It is getting cold at nights now, just exactly the same climate as England. It is a grand country in- deod. We have heard absolutely nothing about South Atrica ain3e the 15th of August and know nothing about what is going on either out or inside ofChina "eept in our own par- ticular station. Large numbers of Troops of all na tionalitivs keep coming in daily. The French are too despic- able tor words. I believe one German Brigade could wipe out the whole French Army. They are simply loathsome looking creatures and " solute cowards with no discipline. The Colonel just this minute has given away 52 ponies and mules we dont know what to do with them. We sold 50 for 8P.000 the other day, all of which went to the men. ll have a deal of it in the box sent to India) It is a box 5; X 4 X " jnmmod full, everything. otter and sable costs etc. etc. 1am tryingtosell all I get now and start a bank account. Muny fellows who were at the relief of Peking are now fabulously wealthy, but wait till aiter"Pao Ting Fou" and perhaps I will have a bit too. (I Bait. per cwt............ Wood.......................
