This is the first overt step taken in the agitation among the Chinese to demonstrate to Portugal that any effort to retain land and waterways, alleged by the Chinese to have been wrongly occupied, will be strongly resented. Heungchow is about ten miles to the north-east of Macao and there is nothing as yet to suggest that in time it will become a thriving port. on
