BOAT BOYS TROUBLED.
Dull Business Compels Some to
Give Up-No Room.

Give Up-No Room.
A very few people perhaps know
that such an easy going set of peo-
pie az the boat boys are the unfor-
tunate posses sors of trouble but,
judging from a conversation with
one of the number yesterday,
such seems to be the case.
You do not know what incon-
veniences we suffer down here at
the boat-landing. In the first place
business is decidedly dull. Several
boat boys have already put up
their boats, and should there be nc
news on the Alameda regarding the
immediate arrival of the U. S. S.
Boston, all but very few will do
the same.
But the matter I wished to
speak of particularly is the made
quate space given to boat land
ing. 1t is bad enough when there
is but one man-of-war in port, for
then we have to move our boats
every time one arrives from the
ship, but when there are three men
of-war in port, then it is almost
unbearable.
Another matter is the lack of a
light of any kind at the landing
during the night. We boat boys
are made to furnish our own lights.
An incandescent light or two might
improve matters considerably.
'There are other points about
which I might complain, but [
think the principal shortcomings
of the boat-landing have been stat
ed, both from our standpoint and
that of our patrons"

ALFRED s. HARTwELL Esq.,
Attorney for Chung Lung
Dear SIr:-I hereby acknowledge
the receipt of your letter of Dec. 80,
whereby you request upon behalf OF
Chung Lung that he be allowed TO
pay in $500 for a renewal OF his opium
license for the term Of three months,
upon condition that he will at the
end OF such three months give up all
rights under the four year license now
held by him Second, that he will un-
dertake to import no more opium be-
tween now and the end of such three
months; and Third, that he will at
the end OF such three months export
at his own cost all opium then re-
manning on hand which has been i'm
ported under this license.
In reply thereto / would say that
the matter has received the careful
consideration of the Cabinet, and with
the understanding that this propO-
sition is intended to cover also a re
lease by Chung Lung, of all claim of
every nature, which he may have
against the Government, in con-
nection with the opium license, your
proposition as hereby set forth, Is
hereby accepted.
L remain your obedient servant,
