IN an article under the heading "How Chinese Repel Foreigners," the San Francisco Chronicle of May 18th observes:- The Eastern humanitarians who have dis eussed the Chinese question have shown the most plentiful lack of information re garding it. The Porte has sent a note to its representatives abroad still urging the abandonment of the Conference. THE Critic says that ex-Representative Rollin M. Daggett of Nevada is to be appointed United States Minister to Honolulu. A COOLIE cmployed on board the British barque Kaisow, was sent to three months' hard labor. The request in Garibaldi's will that his body should be cremated has been set aside, and the funeral is fixed to take place to-morrow at Caprera. The funeral of Garibaldi to-day at Caprera was of a most impressive nature. Mr. Bourke, a landlord of Galway, and who has practised in India as a barrister, has been shot at and killed at Ardrahan. The German, AUstrian, Italian and Russian Ambassadors have presented an identical Note to the Porte in support of a Conference. Dervish Pasha has held receptions of military officers and notables at which he peremptorily insisted upon obedience to the Sultan.
