Fan-Tan.

(To the Editor.)

I Piß,—l am a staunch Conservative, and don't protend to bo a Liberal, and if the fan-tan persecution is a specimen of Liberal (iovornmont, then preservo me from it, notwithstanding tho kindly consideration of a fatherly police, who could not boar to think that, even ono poor foreigner might be treated unfairly by a brother Celestial, mid si that thoro might bo no uneven distribu tion, " scoop the pool," and even foroo their way into a private houao to do so. Fancy the hubbub thoro would be if the Chinese in China were to march into an English man's house during an exciting game of unlimited 100, and, hammering a baton on the table, call upon them in the miino of their Emperor to surrender, while the pool was being scooped. Do wo ever hear of those "dead broke" Chineso going about begging or house-breaking, and so putting tho Government to expenso ? If tho revonue is short, hotter say so, -and say tho hard earned money made by thoao poor pooplo by growing vegetable? on ground previously barren is required to keep up tho police force to force their way into private Chineso houses, and so support a Liboral Government. I believe in conserving tho interests of poor and rich, foreigners and all alike, and consequently intond to remain -A Conservative.
