The little girl passing by at the time the combatants were ondgeling each other, the carrying pole used by the defen- daas struck her on the hand, and made it bleed. She, like a good little girl, endea voured to screen the rascal by saying it was an sooldent, but the magistrate very properly fined him 50 cents, and ordered him to pay 25 cents amends to the little gul or go to gach for 2 days' solitary con- finemont.

The Straits. - (Straits Times.) We hear that pdre Edouard Graniter, of the Soolety of Foreign Missions, who is now a curate of Bangalore, has been appointed Roman Catholic Bishop of the Straits Settlements. As the reverend gen. tleman is reputed to be an English scholar and the author of some works in English, his appointment will, we believe, be halled with pleasure by the Roman Catholics of Singapore. He is expected to arrive here during this month.

The Rajah wrote to the Acting Governor detall. ing to him his proceedings with the Sultan of Brunas and Informing him that it was his intention to proased North, and should he meet with any of the Chlefs, to warn them to be cautious in receiving the new fag, until they hear that the desalon had been confirmed by the Queen's Government, alsu to be very careful in suppressing any disturbance.

April 8th. Arrived at Gantisan. Pan- geran Duroup came on board, and held an interview with the Bajah. He said that be and the other Chiefs to the North were quite independent of the Sultan of Brunal, and in fact, enjoyed the same title and rights as the Sultan himself in the limits of his dominions. That he had already complained about a portion of his territory having been ceded to the Baron, for the Baltan had also coded Gaya (belonging to him the Fongeran) and certain rivers between Gays and Papar, which are as much his as the Sultan's, seeing that he derives revenue from them, all which revenus le now given away to the Baron, and no compensation offered to Pangeran Duroup, or his consent obtained.

This being dono, there follows a feast to all in the house, who assemble in one room, and regale themselves with the fare that is Bot before them; and, having kept up the festivities till about the dawn of day, the wedding party breaks up. Three days after the bride usually pays a visit to her own parents, when another entertainment is made, to which the relativas of the family are invited.
Henceforth the married woman is regard. ed as having been absorbed, as it wore, into the family of her husband and to have surrendered her relationship to her father's house. Her duty to her father-in-law and mother-in-law supersedes all the oblige.
